Please end the world soon

I can't take this shit. People accept this as reality. People allow this man to talk. He disseminates whatever he feels like saying to millions on a daily basis. And it's legitimate. It's all a bunch of insane bullshit, but it's legitimate because it's on a "respectable" television station. Therefore people believe it and worship him because he tells them that the problem is everyone else and doing/thinking whatever the fuck you feel like, hating everyone else and never having to change is fundamentally correct. It's like providing masturbation with poisoned lube.



Fuck this world/country/society/species/etc.

Highlights from Egypt

From today's New York Times:

A bonfire of office furniture from the ruling party headquarters was burning nearby, and the carcasses of police vehicles were still smoldering. The police appeared to have retreated from large parts of the city.

From an Associated Press story:

On Friday, 17 police stations throughout Cairo were torched, with protesters stealing firearms and ammunition and freeing some jailed suspects. They also burned dozens of police trucks in Cairo, Alexandria and Suez. On Saturday, protesters besieged a police station in the Giza neighborhood of Cairo, looted and pulled down Egyptian flags, then burned the building to the ground.

From another Associated Press story:

Before the army arrived, young Egyptians — some armed with truncheons grabbed off the police — created a human chain at the museum's front gate to prevent looters from making off with any of its priceless artifacts.

People taking back power, however fleetingly, makes for some crazy situations.
