Learn American politics before you troll me over them. The U.S. Government is made up of those who represent the citizens of the country, by definition. They are voted in for that exact reason.

Now if you really wish to get onto this subject, then this topic will be needing a close...
You fucking moron, the U.S. Government is a bunch of American citizens who got picked by the AMERICAN PEOPLE. You are talking like your fucking country is the only country on the planet, the whole freaking world got the same basic system when it comes to governments and elections. You are blindingly denying them from being Americans just because of their actions, they are as much American as you, the only thing that is mattering is their current "rank" within the government.

Quit accusing us of trolling you, posting a picture to show our expressions over your overall dumbness is not trolling. Now accept the fact that they are idiots, but they are still American people.
Oh and yeah, report me like you always do as you cannot face your own fucking faults.

They are composed of humans. People need to stop assuming that a person from another country is a completely different race. Yes, there are different ethnicities, but there is only one human race. Blame the people who take advantage of their power over other humans, not the people that live within an imaginary boundary. It's those people taking advantage of the situation that propose the stupid power-trip bills like SOPA and PIPA. They have no intention of stopping piracy...it's all about greed and power. That's what government has become in the last 100 years or so, maybe more. It's no longer about keeping order, but instead about keeping control. It's not a subject I want to divert to because politics aren't allowed here, but SOPA and PIPA are basically proof of that.

Anyway, now that SOPA and PIPA are pretty much done for, has anyone heard anything new about OPEN yet? I'm sure it's doomed to a similar fate after the internet blackouts, but it's getting very little news coverage in comparison, so it's something I'd rather not see pass either. Any censorship over the internet is bad. It's one thing to stop people who break the law or threaten the lives or well-being of others online, but it's another to pass a bill using that as an excuse just to control what people see or say altogether.

Dude, you basicly said the American government aren't americans, what I was trying to say, was that they are american citizens just like you. Your going on a fucking crazy ride.
No, the U.S. Government is not part of the American people. It's part of a group of people picked to "represent" the American people, who actually represent their own useless opinions instead.

They aren't ? Then what are they ?

Nope, but ACTA is still very much a huge threat to freedom of expression and the internet as we know it.

In fact, the UK and 21 other countires in the EU have all signed up to ACTA, with only 5 countries opposing. This is f**king bad, guys.

The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement - in a nutshell, and the most worrying aspect of it, is that it will effectively give major corporations the ability to censor anything they deem copyrighted material. It spells absolute disaster.

Watch this video. It explains everything very well and in detail.
What Is ACTA ?

SugarD's referring to the fact that nowadays Corporations with big money influence politics and votes. I lost faith in the Government after the Supreme Court upheld a rule saying that Corporations are "people".

So, in a sense.. the country isn't run by the "American" people, it's being run by those who pay millions to run the country their own ways.

You think people as this:


But in reality it's this:

Where must we go... we who wander this Wasteland in search of our better selves?

Yet you are the one accusing of racism against yankees.

The fact that big companies are using of their influence to safeguard their money making does not change the fact that they are yankees. Is life in USA so shitty to the point of making you deny your own nationality? I wonder.

Eu corro fujo desta sombra / Em sonhos vejo este passado
E na parede do meu quarto / Ainda está o seu retrato
Eu quero ver pra não lembrar / Pensei até em me mudar / Lugar qualquer que não exista / O pensamento em você
