[Disfunction]

I'm not happy with any nationalism, patriotism, etc. It's all well and good to love your country, but once you get into the whole concepts of superiority, supremacy, etc. it becomes problematic. We're all living on one planet. We're sharing it, and when one person fucks up, we all feel it in the end.

I couldn't stand it when I lived in the states and I would be consistently ridiculed first for being Canadian, and then because it got to me. It's trivial. It's really trivial to focus on a group. If I'm ever going to hate someone, it's going to take a lot. It's not possible for me to even hate a group. I don't have the capacity I once did.

I'm not looking up to getting into a political debate nor a sociological one. I'm giving the French ye olde carte blanche because I personally have never been there. There are a lot of Canadians that feel the same as those French people you cited. A great many. We here like to call them idiots.

I'm not even trying to preach here, but what I am getting at is that actions speak louder than words, and saying nothing at all where as they say everything there is to be said is a sign of superiority... and right now people are reciting very, very old lines that I've heard enough times that if I hear them say it one more fucking time I'm going to bash him over the head with a chair until chair and head become inextricably intertwined.
