Are Americans being brainwashed?

[Hand of Nergal]

I was in the movies today, and right before the trailers began an American flag popped up for a fraction of a second, it went away so fast I think Im the only one who saw it, and then a commercial for National Guard came on...
In this day 'terrorists' are the new commies like in the McCarthy era. People are afriad to say the wrong thing for fear of being called un-American!
Un-American=evil
Killing=freedom
war=prosperity
radical=terrorist
willing to ask questions and think before making assumptions=leftist pinko
If I didnt hate Canadians more than anything ele in the world I would move there until this crap boils over!

what's wrong with Canadians?

what's wrong with Canadians?

Sometimes referred to as "Northern America", "Ca-nada", "Canawduh", "Gaynadia", "Can'tada", "Soviet Canuckistan", "America Jr.", "America Lite", "The Skinny America", "Diet America", "America's Hat", "Fake-USA", "The flea on America's ass", "U.S.EH", "the US of EH", "That big blank space between normal people and Alaska", "America's scapegoat", "America's fro", or "The 51st State." Canadia is a country located immediately north of the United States, starting directly above Portland, Maine. The two nations share a lot of similarities, because Canucks lack any culture and must imitate Americans. However, notable differences are that Canadia is always cold and has a different currency — called "dollarettes" — which, after a long history of being buttsecksed by the US dollar, are now just finally becoming about even in value are worth moar. Many LJ users are from Canadia. It is hated by the Westboro Baptist Church due to its high population of Gays and Cunucians (as we call them).
Because they have even TV programming than UPN, people in Canadia are often not as stupid as people in Alabama. Unless they actually watch television. Then that makes them just behind Pakistani border people in terms of stupidity.
Next to hockey, the favorite Canadian past time is looking down on the American media, even though most Canadians would rather chew on used syringes than actually watch a Canadian movie or TV show.
Citizens of Canadia are often referred to as "Canadians," "Canadianans," "Canadianese," "Canadiananalists," "Canadorks," "Canidiots," "Canuckistanis," "Mother Canuckers," depending on where in Canadia they live, although the official term is "Canadans." No one knows where the "i" went, so don't ask. Those of French ancestry are called "Canadois". In the United States, it is illegal to be Canadan. On the reverse side, privileged White liberal American pinkos sleep safe in the knowledge that, should it all go to , they can always deposit 400k into a Canadin bank, take one up the ass and get instant Canadan citizenship.
Canadians believe they enjoy a majority of French, or English ancestry but a billion Hong Kongers and moved there last Thursday, vastly outnumbering the multicultural whiteys.
Canadians Have an inch thick atmosphere around them that secretes unimportant enzymes, but when this enzyme hits our atmosphere it mutates into AIDS. Not only that but Canadians infected 3 billion people with the Parasite.
You know you're in Canada when you come across road signs that say "Moose Jaw" or "White Horse" and "Red Deer".

LOL

LOL

Deep in your soul you know its true

[Da Skinna]

Deep in your soul you know its true

My God!


I'm Canadian and I even know it's true! Deep down I've always known...

You mean.. citizenship in a country by default requires you to be patriotic?

As in, whenever patriotism is brought up, we often see it as an enabler of curbing elements averse to the government's stance. You're unpatriotic for opposing Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc.

I mean, look at the Dixie Chicks, they got hit for being unpatriotic. It's a stunted form in most cases and a bit of an euphemism for nationalism.

Props to guard commander for the cool post
Americas cancerous tumor growth, Canada!

In this day 'terrorists' are the new commies like in the McCarthy era. People are afriad to say the wrong thing for fear of being called un-American!
Un-American=evil
Killing=freedom
war=prosperity
radical=terrorist
willing to ask questions and think before making assumptions=leftist pinko
If I didnt hate Canadians more than anything ele in the world I would move there until this crap boils over!

Yep, but be careful, well over half of the people on this forum have already been bought over

[Bovril]

It's an interesting observation that using anti-(insert name of nation/movement here) as an insult is a good indicator of totalitarianism. Anti-German under the Nazis, anti-revolutionary under Stalin and Mao. Interestingly, with the national versions, it implies an insideous jingoism. So, if being unamerican is evil, then being american is good, and since foreigners can hardly be armerican, well you can see where I'm going with this.

Suffice to say that in any half way decent society, people who claim to have the 'absolute truth' about what that society stands for (as if such a thing could ever exist), and then use it as a tool to bash other people into submission with, get laughed at.

[Thanatos]

Canadians are bad? What on earth? What are you smoking, son?

[Magno]

Answering question: Yes Americans are being brainwashed, they always have been. Their masses have been educated in a way that to this day Communists, "Fascists", Jews, Muslims, and leftists are persecuted and frowned upon when Communism, in its theoretical form, is the perfect form of government, Fascism, even with the horrors it caused, brought Germany from loser to world superpower in less than a decade. Jews....well i don't really know why. Muslims are all thought to be terrorist because of mass media not because Islam teaches them to be.

[The Count(er)]

last time I checked the US wasn't the only country brainwashing it's citizens, it appears to be a pretty common phenomenon

[gambit]

Theres no need to ask. Just read our history books.

[Pious Agnost]

I think a more apt question would be, is anyone NOT being brainwashed? Hell, even here you see flickers in between ads. Not much, but still, then there is the constant under smear campaigns against Islam and the Russians by the ordinary news

AAAH! Patriotism! Run...

I'd rather they said it and got kicked out, frankly. Then they wouldn't wind up running for President and getting half the vote, like a certain Barack Hussein Obama.

Un-American=evil

Often true.

Killing=freedom

War is often necessary to maintain freedom, if that's what you mean.

war=prosperity

Ridiculous, although it could be argued that World War II helped get America out of the Great Depression.

radical=terrorist

Often true.

willing to ask questions and think before making assumptions=leftist pinko

Based on what you mean by that, true.

If I didnt hate Canadians more than anything ele in the world I would move there until this crap boils over!

What's to hate about Canadians? The people are great, but they've got a left-wing tyrannical government that's suppressing their civil liberties. I'm glad that's not what you want here.

[Pallantides]

Lol what is wrong with Canadians?

[Каие]

Often true.

The fact, you actually believe that is very concerning, and disturbing...

War is often necessary to maintain freedom, if that's what you mean.

Not in your case...not for the last...150 years.

Based on what you mean by that, true.

This too is disturbing...if one asks questions he is a pinko?

What's to hate about Canadians? The people are great, but they've got a left-wing tyrannical government that's suppressing their civil liberties. I'm glad that's not what you want here.

Have they? Canada has had the Conservative Party in power for 4 years.





Now I'm trying to work out whether or not you are being serious....

[Kiljan Arslan]

yes by the Mongols

[El Brujo]

We're not brainwashed, we're just bitter hicks hanging on to our religion and our guns.

[Kiljan Arslan]

damn need to spread rep, good one EL Brujo!
