16. No It isn't a good thing when it's part of the PROBLEM.
Edited on Thu Feb-25-10 10:39 PM by TheWatcher
When you are stupidly Optimistic to the point of completely ignoring reality, it is a HARMFUL thing.

When you can't even face what the problems are, and you are incompletely in denial about the lack of leadership and representation being given to the people by their government, and you attack anyone who DARES to shed light on it because it interferes with your carefully constructed false paradigm that makes you feel good so that you don't have to hurt your beautiful mind with reality, you are part of the PROBLEM, not the SOLUTION.

And when you have the gall to tell people they don't understand their OWN COUNTRY, because they don't share the same false, distorted view of reality that you do, it's not stupidly optimistic.

It's just plain STUPID.

These days, you seem to only value the maintenance of the Status Quo of the Party Line, Fake Kabuki Political Theater, and whatever distortion of reality you can cling to make you feel good, and "Hope For The Future."

I have no doubt that somewhere inside you, there is a decent, well meaning, critical thinking person.

I just wish he would show himself once in awhile.

Now, I'm sure you won't see this unless you just can't resist taking me off ignore for the 3,067th time just so you can get in a meaningless insult, and since you certainly don't have any kind of thoughtful reply to provide in the name of intelligent discourse, if you don't mind, could we please continue the discussion without this jingoistic condescension?

Nothing against you, of course. :)
