    People who think it’s just “bad” to criticize their government don’t know the difference between their government and their mommy.

      Yeah, it’s a similar sort of immaturity where good boys and girls don’t question what they’re told. (Emphasis these days on “boys and girls only” am I right?)

      I think reasonable adults understand that everybody and everything are flawed. It’s how you react to them that matters. People deserve compassion and understanding from the get-go, and they have the right to just exist. Governments and companies start in no such place, and they have a much lower threshold before they should be told to fix their shit.
