    americans' collective disregard for thier government admitting to such extreme evils is a comedy enough and of the divine kind.

    i'm not religious, but i sometimes with i were true so that those evil people committing those acts and then lying about it would meet their comeuppance.

    A wise man once told me that if you stop digging you are in a hole but if you keep digging you’ll have a tunnel.

    Which would you want to be in?

    A hole or a tunnel?

    How did people take this so seriously, especially on a meme community? (Gore?)

    "Poe's law is an adage of Internet culture which says that, without a clear indicator of the author's intent, any parodic or sarcastic expression of extreme views can be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of those views."

    (Gore?)

    There is an urban legend saying he claimed to have invented the internet. What actually happened was that he was asked in a 1999 interview how he was different from other candidates and replied: "During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet. [...]". He was probably referring to legislative efforts.

    You almost certainly hate China yet used a Chinese phone/PC to make this comment.
