if every day you are told how unfair and unjust your country is and how you are responsible for destroying the planet unless you do X.

If you are told you haven't got a chance in this country because of racism, bigotry, homophobia, whatever it is, sexism,

if you've been told that you've got nowhere to go because you're African-American or Hispanic and the deck is stacked against you in an unfair country, what would you do

if you're told this every day by people you vote for, by people you support?

If the movies you go see tell you that your government was behind the downing of the trade center and the Pentagon in 9/11, as the move Zeitgeist did, a documentary.

If you were told by Michael Moore that all of this was done on purpose,

if you're told that the rich have taken what's rightfully yours,

if you're bombarded with this every day as part of a political message, what would you be capable of doing?

Thinking about this, if you had to pick a the thesis for this article, what would it be?
