2. We're all being coerced and conditioned in this culture...

There is a high correlation between so-called "jock" culture at the professional, college, and high school levels, and authoritarian right-wing viewpoints. Not an exact correlation, mind you...but a high one.

The social institutions of this country invest a massive amount of time, money, and effort into controlling and conditioning the population, to "manufacture consent" as Chomsky puts it. Can't have a population that is questioning, critical, or self-aware; that would be too dangerous to the powerful interests that run the show.

WTF?

In America you achieve the effect of mass hypnosis by appealing to the citizen's inner troglodyte, and then point to everyone who doesn't drink the kool-aid as "wimps".

Which pretty much describes all you pussies at the DUmp, doesn't it? Asshole!
