Values and customs don't come from guverments OR from "elites".

They come from influencers, though you are correct, not entirely. This includes the ruling class, their puppets, and their propaganda/media.

No, they don't come from influencers. THEY COME FROM PREVIOUS GENERATIONS. Sometimes I wonder whether you are a closet commie, just dumb, or LARPing dumb, or truly that misguided and misinformed, or what. Jesus.

I am. Too much mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic and aluminum. I might be severely impaired but I'm still way above average. So don't worry about my brain. The cancer is mostly gone now, so I can focus on the metals. I'll probably stop posting when my brain starts working right again. Fuckdammit I made 2-3 typos typing this. Do you realize how insulting and aggravating that is to me? No. You have no idea. But I make do.

I won't argue with that. Sorry for your troubles.
