exactly. until they come to the realization that they're just delusional pack animals carrying the water for their wonton masters, engaging them in their totemic phantasm only spurs them further down the same mis-guided path. no one's going to change their mind by force, and considering the group in question, they'll have to be overwhelmingly repulsed by what they've become. the sad part is, that by that time, it'll probably be too late.

My oldest son found this out the hard way. He's only 13 and is so intelligent and altruistic. He never needed to take any queues from me on his independent and pro-Constitution beliefs. He spoke out to his "christian" friends at his "christian" school who responded with all of the hate and vigor of the BOTS on LP. He is now labelled a "liberal" [which is as far from the truth as you can get] and an "America hater."
It's obvious what these kid's parents are isn't it....
your son is welcome....have him join, Indie, it would be neat to have his participation and fun for us to get an intelligent and inquisitive teenager's point of view.
