You are the stars

Hahahaha!
Anyway i would rather have a good grasp of reality rather than what nonsense they were eating up and dying for back then. Good to be a civic and get a good dose of reality at a young age. Although we will most likely make our own mistakes in the future. No doubt. We are after all imperfect.

I don't fully understand the reason for the hatred of western culture, which usually comes from the left, but I do not deny its reality.  It does however explain their adopting rather oversimplified versions of Eastern mysticism.  The closest current equivalent is the SJWs who consider logic to be racist.  Don't ask me to explain that one because I don't really understand it myself.

Glad to see that you are enjoying your evening. Big Grin
Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. -- H.L. Mencken

If one rejects laissez faire on account of man's fallibility and moral weakness, one must for the same reason also reject every kind of government action.   -- Ludwig von Mises
