It has reached the point of being utterly disgusting."
On that we can agree! I look at some of the people around me - the ones who are REALLY the idiots! - and still don't understand why they don't see what the bas#$%d in the White House is doing to our country. That said, our county has coal mining communities and a state university with a student population of 15,000 and the county still goes red every election. Of course, I know the guy who oversees our balloting and sets up the polls for the elections, and he makes DARNED SURE there's no voter fraud!
I can definitely relate to where you are coming from, sneakers.
I have had a growing tendency lately to feel overwhelmed by a sea of stupidity.
I feel like a pebble at the bottom of an ocean, and there may be another pebble a few feet over from me, but it just does not matter because we are still at the bottom of an ocean.
Sometimes I refer to my country as America the Stupid. Now I realize that there are some smart people still here and that my description is negative of everyone, but it just does not seem to matter in the end how many smart people are left, because they are so vastly outnumbered.
Stupidity seems to be growing at a geometric rate. The only thing that makes sense ot me is that it is being purposely manufactured and successfully so.
I really am not sure what the solution is, or if there even is one, so I pretty much just get angry about it.
