Patriot Theater

I thought everybody knew this:

Since 2009, the military has been paying $millions$ to the NFL for these “patriotic” displays.

It makes Uncle Sam look like some kind of sad sack, paying people to like him: “Please clap”.

Some of my facebook friends are reporting that they’re boycotting the NFL this weekend. I’m kinda laughing, to see so many people taking a strong stand in favor of blind obedience. And by “facebook friends”, I mean people I knew in high school, 45 years ago and 2000 miles away. I gave them the link above and told them that it’s all a big charade, but I don’t think it’ll make any difference.

There’s only so much one can do to “fix” other people.
