26. Hmm. No, that's not a gigantic problem

The problem is you (note that I am using the personal 'you' here, and NOT the editorial 'you') and people like you who refuse to admit, accept, and acknowledge just how goddamned fucking bad the situation really is, and the role your government-can't-do-anything-right cancer of a proudly pig-ignorant worldview has played in ALL our misfortunes!

I can't help you because you will not be helped. You're convinced, yet completely bereft of one shred of evidence in support of your fantasy. Comprehending the evidence screaming at you and blinking million-candlepower strobes three inches from your eyes would entail you admitting how goddamned wrong you are. Your fragile mind can't handle that level of cognitive dissonance.

So pack your stupid Republican trolling up and take it the fuck outta here, sister. You aren't welcome and we don't want you here.
