Recently one of my friends and I were discussing the disgusting level of apathy by the American public towards the tyrannical behavior of the US government, its agencies and its individual officials. The definition of the word “Apathy” via Wikipedia is defined as: “a lack of feeling, emotion, interest, or concern. It is a state of indifference, or the suppression of emotions such as concern, excitement, motivation, and/or passion. An apathetic individual has an absence of interest in or concern about emotional, social, spiritual, philosophical and/or physical life and the world.” That pretty much sums up the attitude and state of mind of the vast majority of the American population in regards to the treasonous, criminal behavior being perpetrated on them by their own government. Let’s briefly look at some recent examples of this Tyranny:

Most people believe and trust the media and the government and they will get angry at you and even violent toward you if you show then facts that are contrary to their beliefs. And, just like religious believers, regardless of how much evidence and how many facts, they will refuse to change their beliefs.
Sigh. I know. Well, I agree with the author of the commentary where he writes this: Whatever reason people have for being apathetic towards tyranny regardless of if they recognize it or not, the outcome or response by those who are awake and aware seems to be Apathy towards those who are Aphetic. What I mean by that is people who do recognize the tyranny in their government, and recognize those who don’t care, or… those who support the tyranny directly or indirectly, will not respond kindly when the system inevitably falls apart. Why should we care about them, when not only did they not care about us, they did not care about themselves! Apathy towards apathy. Personally, I will not give a shit about my Obama bumper sticker having neighbor who I know has eagerly supported every tyrannical action of this current regime, or anyone else who falls into that category. If there is an event in this country which leads people of this type to find themselves in a situation where they have no food, no water, and no means to defend themselves or their families, they may find themselves in a position to where they need to contemplate the definition of apathy for themselves To question is to value the ideal of truth more highly than the loyalties to nation, religion, race, or ideology.
I'm am about convinced that, short of a nuclear war, about the only thing that will change things is an economic collapse. A good start would be for rent and other prices doubling while most wages, social security, unemployment, food stamps, etc. remained constant.

I think it's TV. It's messing with minds. They are programed. I have gotten TV out of my life completely.
