I don't think it's a mental health problem per se - I think American society is sick.

And I don't mean sick as in "something happened to you all" - I mean sick as in "you all willingly participate in it together"

There are plenty of other countries with guns who don't have the same kinds of mass killings the USA does.

The problem as I see it is that so many Americans are just so fucking emotional about everything.

Everything's a drama, or a story that needs to be be told, of a journey, or an underdog, or revenge, or a protector. Are musical montage. "I just have to tell you where I have come from" - "you just need ro know my roots"

Every disagreement is a fascist or a communist.

Nothing just "is".

Everything has to have bullshit emotional content and context.

The trouble is none of you will ever see yourselves as part of the problem.

You're in a narcissistic trap.

Liberals are 100% certain that "it's the guns" and get absolutely high saying it.

But it's not the guns. Canada has guns.

Loads of other countries have guns.

You're all fucking hysterical.

Our propaganda machine is generational and runs deep.
