Very good conclusion, grasshopper. If you were never free, then what was the purpose of brainwashing 100s of millions that they had agency? Could it be taken from the pages of standard animal husbandry, that the most productive herds are protected, peaceful and well fed? So, why upset the 10s of millions of loyal taxpayers working hard to finance their own captivity?
Furthermore, if the military is in favor of global engagements, therefore providing excellent career prospects for ambitious officers, then why "support the troops"? Where did that little ditty come from? What about the flag? Does is represent what you think it means, or is it actually a symbol of your own foolish belief and faith that government is acting fairly and honestly in you behalf?
Even FR is caught up in the game, offering hourly updates of 'conservative porn' for those who enjoy the guilty pleasure of fantasizing about a world of justice and punishment that doesn't really exist.
Now, I know it's hard for some to (finally) come to these conclusions, but it's been staring you in the face all along. As far as I'm concerned, the only real intrigue has been the question of how long the game has been going on. My best guess is 1913, when two amendments and the Fed reserve were created in that fateful year. So, over 100 years of a system of government that bears no resemblance to what is offered to support those wishing to remain either blissfully ignorant, or need an extra dosage of denial to keep themselves happy.
'Conservative' is just a word. What many, probably most people here at FR want is a world in which life has value, and means something. That's a spiritual construct, not a political one. The politics we fight for and against are really only about protecting ourselves, our faith, our ideals, and our right to self-determinism from being trampled on in the secular world.
The world is not just. There are horrible unethical judges. A plethora of unethical attorneys, Juries with bias and agenda, and all kinds of ways for injustice to be served. The best we can do is to be aware, vigilant, and never, ever become so comfortable with what we 'have' materially such that we wouldn't be willing to lose it to preserve our spirituality, principles, and self-determinism. Lucky for us, a significant majority of those in 'power' are pathetically small people of limited skills - mostly because they've spent their lives pursuing the 'skill set' of deceit and self-promotion. These types of people miss the point, generally wind up disappointed with their lives, and always fall, eventually.
Your post is so depressing!
