Alas, America! I thought you were a country of a free and clever people, a
people that prefer death to being enslaved. A people who are smart
enough not to be tricked by anyone. A sound pragmatic sort of people with
stable values and views.

NO, YOU ARE NOT!!! Ralph opened my eyes. You, Americans, are perfect idiots
with feeble brains that can be washed by anyone! A miserable handful of Jews
have washed all your brains out, have penetrated your instable psyche amd have
turned all of you into JEWISH SLAVES! YOU ARE BEING MANIPULATED!! SOS!!!
Through your TV screens they preached jewdaism 24 hours a day. And you,
poor brainless Americans, silly worms, haven't noticed you are permanently being
indoctrinated by them. Simple guys, you're gonna lose all you have unless
you listen to clever ones. Ralph is the clever one. He thinks for you, he
looks after you. HE IS YOUR MESSIAH! Ralf the Savior!!! He has identified the 
danger and rushed to your rescue. You, ass holes, still don't appreciate...

Now, seriously. Is the paragraph above offensive to the citizens of the U.S.A.? 
Surely it is. What Mr Winston and like people say is EXACTLY AS OFFENSIVE
TO AMERICANS but simply less overt. Theories like his are based on only 
one important presumption: a minority of clever but dishonest and revengeful
bastards are arranging a conspiracy (they are clever!) against simple honest
(but stupid) guys, the majority, who aren't clever enough to recognize the plot but
should rather be warned of the danger. 

Come on, facts aside, is it not purely, hilariously ridiculous to think 
Americans are like that?

Is it not more plausible that Mr R Winston and Co are just brainless bigots?
And that nobody ever has to look at his 'evidence' to find out what he is?
Do we need a discussion? 

By the way, if someone comes and says everybody has a microscopic computer 
inside controlled by extra-terrestrial aliens, will you discuss the issue
and look at the evidence or will you rather refer your opponent to a psychiatrist
straight away?

Post what you think,
