America has just turned into a parody of itself and I can't help but watch like if it were some really surreal reality TV show.
As long as the cancer isn't from those communist wind turbines, of course.
*brap*
This country is a joke
At this point I not longer know if what I know of USA are stereotypes or facts
We've entered the Onion-verse at mach 5
remember its your civic duty to huff no less than 2L of molecular freedom a day if you want to save this country from communism

doesn't this mean that russia has more freedom than the US with its massive gas fields?
God, it must be hard to be a satirist these days

Bring back Atoms for Peace (without the bombs) at least nuclear power is beneficial.
Whenever I read the words "Freedom" and "USA" in the same context these days, I usually imagine wage slavery, discrimination and corruption. Wonder why that is?
Us too.
Fart jokes really write themselves here
I'd agree, but I've noticed that it often has the same effect as going to church wherein you have a community that is there for one another because you share the same values. In my experience, many of the people who are patriotic tend to be more charitable and gregarious.
in my experience the people who make up shit like freedom gas usually wave a confederate flag around and smoke up the neighborhood with diesel fumes
Gotta roll coal to show off how fuckin' FREE my FREEDOM GAS is! YEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAW!
woah now, free freedom gas is communism.
Nothing FREE can ever be communist! Except healthcare. Free healthcare is the most pinko fuckin' thing after Josef Mao himself.
Theodore Roosevelt personally felt that immigrants, upon arriving in the USA, should be given lessons on how to be 'American' - classes on English, mandatory Boy Scout meetings, etc etc. He believed that, through promoting the idea of American success through progress, immigrants would begin to see themselves less as Italian/English/Spanish/Mexican-Americans, and more as "Americans" THIS IS WHERE WE ARE ONE HUNDRED YEARS LATER. Jingoist policies only promote the idea that true "Americans" are dense assholes, thereby increasing foreign nationalism throughout the country. I've even begun to suffer from such effects, as I've begun view myself as a German-American, when previously I considered myself a mere American. Shitty slogans/policies only serve to divide the nation in the long term, as we begin to humiliate ourselves internationally. and don't even get me started on the environmental impact of such poisonous policies. For the first time in my life, I am ashamed to be an American.
Wait, if "Freedom" was used to distract from French discontent with "French Fries", what does it do in the term "Freedom Gas"? What does that actually mean? Freedom from clean air? From healthy forestation?
Freedom from having to think about anything because when you hear "FREEDOM!" you're supposed to shut your brain off and go along with whatever you're being told like a good little puppet patriot. Less thinking, more jingoism, USA! USA! USA! HNGH!
Can't they just call it French gas like everyone else? SMH
