Now I just want to see the insides of a dead empire and its unsinkable aircraft carriers.

Wow, yes, I think that pretty much sums up how I am feeling as well. I got yelled at yesterday by someone in my family because we were talking about the election and I was saying that we need to elect someone who will stop these wars and who will stop funding Israel. My family member said that I am so negative and that I never find anything positive to say. I responded that if a society has to "manufacture" happiness, it is probably not a healthy society. I call this "Be happy dammit" mentality the "happiness gestapo." No matter what evil, horrific and unspeakable acts are taking place around you, do not focus on that, but focus on joy and the things you are grateful for. This attitude is twisted and sick. I think until we learn to come together to confront and overcome this evil, we will continue to suffer.
