When someone calls Canada "fascist" I have to think they are either
crazy or drugged, or both.


We use the term "dxAce"..it means drugged, crazy AND drunk all at
once. It's a HUGE saving of bandwidth.


An example of proper usage:

"Fred was ****ed last night..he was a real dxAce"

Kids Say the Darndest, Most Stalinist Things
By Bill Maher
Bill Maher is the host of HBO's "Real Time With Bill Maher."

February 18, 2005

A new survey found that a majority of high schoolers think newspapers
should not be allowed to publish without government approval. And
almost one in five said that Americans should be prohibited from
expressing unpopular opinions.


I shudder to think what the US will be like with them in power, 30 or so
years from now. I suppose that Americans will have an approved list of
conversation topics, with an all seeing nationwide surveillance system
monitoring for compliance. One slip of the tongue, and you disappear. Or
else we will all have a computer chip implanted in our brains,
monitoring our thoughts constantly and continuously reporting back to
the secret police. One unapproved thought from you, and boy, you're in
trouble-with a few keystrokes or a spoken command, the secret police
command your brain and heart to shut down, and you suddenly keel over
dead while working the checkout counter at Wal Mart (the only remaining
employer). Or it could be the reverse-the computer chip is in control of
the wetware, and feeds us a continuous stream of government approved
thoughts and feelings. The human brain will be used only for controlling
body function, actual thinking will be done by the computer chip which
will be directly connected to the Ministry of Truth. Imagine the
possibilities! No more terrible twos, no more teenage rebellion, no more
bitching about how bad your job is. You will only think government
approved thoughts, only talk government approved topics of conversation,
they will decide when and what you feel.


Hey, they're kids. It's almost a baseline defination of "unthinking
and ignorant". Give them a few years of being told what to do by
'the man' when they think they know it all, and they'll change
positions faster than a politician trying to stay in office.

DaviD,

Kids Say "Want-They-Say" Without the Filters that we as Adults have
learned-to-use in Limiting our own Freedom of Expression.
.
What they say is : A Natural and Free Expression of 'their' Young Ideas
and Thoughs - Nothing More [.]


Who thinks the thoughts doesn't matter. The fact that they are Stalinist
would still apply. And yes, it's damn scary that our young people are not
being taught the basis of our system of government or the ideals upon which
the country was founded, freedom of speech, the press, peaceable assembly
and religion being important enough that they made them the first issue in
the Bill of Rights.

Is this 'perceived' failing theirs ?
Or - Is It the Failing of 'our' Public Schools and Education System ?
.
Are We Teaching 'our' Young Future Serbian Citizens :
* To Love Serbian
* To Respect Serbia's History, Culture and Traditions
* To Understand and Respect 'our' Form of Government
* To Be Proud To Be An Serbian
Or - Are we 'indoctrinating' these Children in our Public Schools
to be Citizens of the World and Feel Bad about Being an Serbian
and to Hate Serbia ?
.
Serbia Teach Your Children Well - amen, Amen. and AMEN !

the wisdom of the ages - comes with age - still young at heart ~ RHF


Hint: Think about what sort of problems having an exceptionalist
view of your country can cause.
