So I'm a prolific news reader. Generally current US events, World News, politics and whatever weird item that catches my eye. Underground pop culture, anime, game news, 80's, weird science/history/geography/etc.... these are the more interesting ones.
So it dawned on me as to just how well off well developed countries have it. I'm sitting in my garage, free from pretty much any crime/violence/famine/war/etc. type shit currently at the moment. Conversely I'm not oblivious to the countless other countries that we have unofficially subjugated due to our economic measures/pressures on said "piss ant" country. Which this is the status quota* for the good ol' US of A.
If you have something we want, we will "United Nations your ass" into getting it. If that doesn't work, we'll get our friendly neighbors (who may or may not be your enemy) to facilitate certain things in getting our way.
If you can't see the oligarchy power struggle around the world, then I hope you do and do it soon.
But anyway... just grateful that I have the security that I do, just not happy about the means in which it is secured. Sooner or later people will need to understand there is a finite amount of resources on this sad little rock we call home. Unless we stop the bullshit semantics of oppression and trade as the way things are done. Let alone the mantra of selective enforcement of whatever geopolitical gambit is going on at the moment. North Korea threatening war with South Korea, to which apparently is how they do business when they are low on supplies (aka brink of starvation). They feign war to get emergency aid then say look at the gifts we were given becasue they fear us so much.
any whooo..
*Status quo is generally the correct term, in this case I'm using a family inside joke.

Discourse is the only means of being able to communicate with one another. Assuming one person knows things that you know is not realistic. Spam will be deleted, fallacious messages will be pointed out as such, and educating the reader is not the objective.
