Good video.

I dont know that this is important though.

They make a big deal about the stupidity of the american people, and its true. They refuse to see it because they are cowards. It's so much easier to just ignore it all. Let them die a cowards death. I dont want them anywhere near me.

Like the vid says, their tolerance of bullshit is legendary. So let them eat that bullshit. Sucks to be them.

Their toleration of bullshit and their stupidity will not keep the system from crashing down due to its own weight.

They refuse to see it because they are cowards.

But O good Lord! What strange phenomenon is this? What name shall we give it? What is the nature of this misfortune? What vice is it, or, rather, what degradation? To see an end- less multitude of people not merely obeying, but driven to servility? Not ruled, but tyrannized over? These wretches have no wealth, no kin, nor wife nor children, not even life itself that they can call their own. They suffer plundering, wanton- ness, cruelty, not from an army, not from a barbarian horde, on account of whom they must shed their blood and sacrifice their lives, but from a single man; not from a Hercules nor from a Samson, but from a single little man. Too frequently this same little man is the most cowardly and effeminate in the nation, a stranger to the powder of battle and hesitant on the sands of the tournament; not only without energy to direct men by force, but with hardly enough virility to bed with a common woman! Shall we call subjection to such a leader cowardice? Shall we say that those who serve him are cow- ardly and faint-hearted? If two, if three, if four, do not defend themselves from the one, we might call that circumstance sur- prising but nevertheless conceivable. In such a case one might be justified in suspecting a lack of courage. But if a hundred, if a thousand endure the caprice of a single man, should we not rather say that they lack not the courage but the desire to rise against him, and that such an attitude indicates indiffer- ence rather than cowardice? When not a hundred, not a thou- sand men, but a hundred provinces, a thousand cities, a mil- lion men, refuse to assail a single man from whom the kind- est treatment received is the infliction of serfdom and slavery, what shall we call that? Is it cowardice? Of course there is in every vice inevitably some limit beyond which one cannot go. Two, possibly ten, may fear one; but when a thousand, a mil- lion men, a thousand cities, fail to protect themselves against the domination of one man, this cannot be called cowardly, for cowardice does not sink to such a depth, any more than valor can be termed the effort of one individual to scale a fortress, to attack an army, or to conquer a kingdom. What monstrous vice, then, is this which does not even deserve to be called cowardice, a vice for which no term can be found vile enough, which nature herself disavows and our tongues refuse to name?

- The Politics of Obedience: The Discourse of Voluntary Servitude by ÉTIENNE DE LA BOÉTIE

Patriot Henry's note: the whole thing by Boetie is worth reading. My conclusion is that the explanation is "Stockholm Syndrome", in which the victim identifies with their victimizer in order to survive.
