Creep Of The Week: Facebook Reposters

How to recognize them: They spew propaganda on facebook that is uninformed, inaccurate and unoriginal in thought. They have nothing interesting going on or imaginative to say so they repost stupid crap. They usually have something to do with religion, politics, their children or some sort of disease.

Frequently heard saying: “The US Military walks on water and turns water into wine. Barack Obama does not want to give them any money because he wants the Muslims to take over the country because he is one. 99% of Americans will not have the guts to repost this because they don’t believe in God. Those people are unpatriotic Americans. They also don’t love their daughters, hate children with autism and think all women should die of breast cancer.”

Why they bug: Seriously, would it kill you to think for yourself? Do you realize how stupid this makes you look? Or, I don’t know, actually check your facts before spreading a bunch of bullshit on the internet? Why do we have to continue to polarize Democrats against Republicans, believers against non-believers? Can’t we all just get along? Do you really think that your facebook status is really going to make a big difference and change the world? Are you even registered to vote?

Their retort: “Those soldiers are dying in Iraq so that you can even have this blog. God bless America! It’s the greatest country in the world.”

My response: Holy crap! The Iraqis are trying to censor my blog?!?! I would have thought they had more pressing issues, what with all the bombing going on in their country. Who knew?
