Memorial Day Fantasies #MemorialDayFantasies

Memorial Day drives me nuts......

My friends say that is no change in me from any other day..........


A barrage of fantasies & untruths are trotted out on Memorial Day.

Americans are better than everyone else.  This is implied if not said explicitly & shouted from the rooftops.  The reality is that that Americans ( I guess they mean American citizens ) are a broad range of brilliant , gutless , brave , liars , leeches , geniuses , dementos , hard workers , creative , evil , lazy ...... living in a land of plenty.  To live in America is to be showered with resources.  to live in America is to be confronted at every turn by corrupt government.  If business is corrupt it uses government to leverage it's evil.  

Here is a popular belief:  The farther away someone lives from you .......  the more worthless they are.  Can't find their home on a map ?  Then they are demons ..... niggers .... terrorists .. scum

American veterans are all heroes.   Really ?   The use of the word hero has been expanded so much it is worthless.  Do I have to point out that it is just as back breaking to get up every day and be civil and be productive and make life better for everyone as a civilian.  Think hard about who you call a hero.  Did they knowingly do what they did ?   Did they know all the ramifications ?  Did they make the world a better place ?   Did they do it every day ... or once ... or never.

Playing up the hero card means more suckers can be lured into the military.  Quote:  "It's not a job.  It's an adventure." 

American veterans should get special privileges.  Why ?  ( Oh yeah ... I forgot.. they are heroes )   You can run your business anyway you like.  Give discounts to the old , the crippled , veterans , active military ...... 
I say .... let us reward the creative , the productive , the honest , ..... but maybe they have already been rewarded.    

America should stop producing veterans.
America should fully take care of the ones that have been crippled mentally and crippled physically. Forever.

Veterans preserved our freedom   No    they did not  .... the military is predicated on robotic adherence to orders from your superiors.  Hardly freedom.  Wars could not be fought if there were not soldiers.  Hitler and Stalin and Roosevelt and Truman and Churchill would have been reduced to tossing dog poop at each other if they had no suckers to buy into their megalomania.  You are born with freedom ...... it most often taken away by state thugs .... police , regulators , tax collectors , judges , prison guards , spys , .... and soldiers ( or by being a soldier ).

There are *good* wars   Someone wins a war      No ... There are no good wars  ....  Only a few fat cats benefit from war.  War destroys stuff.  The average joe on each side loses ground ....... the average jane on each side loses freedom.  Idiot politicians use productive humans as pawns. 

It is just one day .... Quit complaining !    No !   These fantasies are espoused everyday.  They get cranked up to a fever pitch on this special day.

How about we don't study war no more ?
