The Master has commented on whether Hitler had some Jewish background: Was Hitler part Jewish?
But wait, DON’T the oil companies control the US Government???
The real question is this - does Ignorance live in BLISSFUL ignorance? Bliss is important in this life sometimes.
Fight the good fight, never give up, never surrender, ignorance will never be vanquished, but must be fought continuously.
See, I go to high school that services a lot of the kids from the surrounding ghettoes and I get to hear all the ghetto conspiracy theories:
“Tupac ain’t dead! He’s living in his momma’s garage in Texas!”
“Sug Knight set Tupac up to get killed” (Even though, in the said shooting Sug took one to the head)
“Tupac ain’t dead! He’s living on his own island with his momma and with Biggie Smalls! He’s just waiting to make his comeback!” (Yeah, so the IRS can fuck him over for tax evasion, right?)
“Tupac and Biggie and Left Eye are ALL living on an island together!” (Along with Sasquatch, Amelia Airheart, Elvis and Jimmy Hoffa)
I shit you not people, these kids were dead serious. Whenever I try to bring some sense to the conversation, I get blank stares.
Mercutio I just had lunch up at Burger King with Elvis AND Jim Morrison. I feel your pain man. I do.
Opengrave, I was married to this person. Twice. I’m divorced. TWICE.
I don’t learn, do I?
A few pearls of wisdom from a cousin of Ignorance here in Texas:
[ul][li]“This isn’t the first time around for humanity”: People originated on Mars, ruined it, and moved to Earth. This explains the “face.” His explanation for the clearer, more recent picture that clearly shows it’s not a face: NASA doctored it. (I wonder why they didn’t doctor the first one…)[/li][li]The above is why we haven’t gone to Mars yet, despite the fact that it would be very easy to do so.[/li][li]“When the US attacks a Muslim nation,” they (the Muslims) will drop nuclear warheads on Jerusalem, Rome, and Washington, DC. Pointing out that we had already attacked Afghanistan without that happening only earned me a blank stare.[/li][li]All the Muslims in the world (They) are involved in a conspiracy to destroy those they hate (Us).[/li][li]Numerology and astrology are both accurate predictors of the future and human behavior.[/li][li]A UFO did crash in Roswell and is being covered up.[/li][li]George W. Bush’s government is the most oppresive since Hitler’s.[/li][li]Despite the above, he would vote for Bush over any Arab.[/li]The World as We Know It[sup]TM[/sup] will be ending within 5 years.[/ul]
Something crashed in Roswell and IMHO the Government has yet to provide a satisfactory explanation as to what it was.
Sometimes you can’t fight ignorance. Sometimes you have to medicate it.
Ignorance sounds eerily like a cousin of mine and an old friend. Both extremely intelligent people who were eventually diagnosed with ‘conditions’ (shizophrenia for my cuz, bipolar for my pal). My buddy was the head of the debate team in high school. You haven’t banged your head against a wall unless you’ve had the pleasure of arguing with him. Put on a tinfoil hat and tell Ignorance that his messages are no longer downloading to your chip.
