Exactly. We're on the same planet. You don't have anywhere else to go. You cannot treat a nation like it is in an individual person. It's a different creature all together that requires different handling entirely. As much as I fucking hate the United States, so much so that I cannot elaborate on that without violating TOS, you can't just wall them off completely.
Personally I prefer the "Anything you can do, I can do better" tactic of vengeance. Take literally everything good America has ever done and buff it until it shines. Throw away anything that doesn't work. Then use all of that manipulation and forced economic struggle to collapse that sham of a country into what it actually is, at MINIMUM 3 different countries in a trenchcoat.
Your opinions would be received much more favorably without the obscenities. They add nothing and turn people off.
Gaze upon my field of fucks and see that it is barren. The fucktiller idle, the fuckerlizer piled in a corner and the seeds of fuck yet to be sown.
I genuinely couldn't care less what you think if you're going to lecture me over using the word fuck once. This isn't elementary school in rural Manitoba. This is the Internet.
"Fucking" is an intensifier in this sentence. The meaning would slightly change without it.
It is not an 'intensifier', it is just obnoxious. The purpose is not to enhance any meaning, but to 'dominate' over the reader. The word is used in an 'adversarial' context - an insult and a challenge to the reader. It is symbolic of the general anger that we see so commonly today, and I submit it is a direct cause if that anger. The demise of American civilility is completely mapped on to the curve for the use of these obnoxious, angry, combative vulgar terms in the common vernacular.
If you can't handle the word "fuck" then you shouldn't be online. People are angry, and rightfully so, and should be able to express said anger without being tone policed.
Fucking thank you
