It'll make sure you can stay as uneducated on the subject as you like. Nanny has your back."

I think it is absolutely amazing that this is your take on this. I take that back. Since taking something that is a real problem and reducing it to the most simplistic form and then re-jiggering it to fit your brain-dead look at the world is your thing, maybe I shouldn't be surprised. I'm not even going to bother addressing the substance in your post, since there is none there (and I made a promise that I just wouldn't anyway). But you should note that, once again, I think you're fucking ridiculous.
