        This comment is the product of a cooked brain. You’re so hopped up on conspiracy bullshit, that you can’t tell fact from fiction anymore.

        The US Government is absolutely massive, and it’s made up of normal people that you interact with on a regular basis without even realizing it. And just like people, it can do good and it can do bad. Removing that nuance is just ignorant.

            I am well aware of the atrocities committed by the United States government.

            The overwhelming majority of government employees are just regular people working 9-5 desk jobs that don’t involve anything nefarious whatsoever.

            Likewise, the overwhelming majority of scientific breakthroughs come from government funding. The scientists and administrators that make that shit happen aren’t bad people.

            This shit is far from perfect, and we have a horrific and bloody past (and present, and likely future).

            But there is nuance. You need to recognize that there is nuance. The world is not black and white.

                It’s like you are purposely missing the point.

                You’re right. Government bad. Government does nothing good and provides nothing for anyone. The world IS black and white.

                Let me guess, taxes are theft…
