You are writing for Aspies and Auties upon who Irony is generally futile and a wasted effort.

ruveyn: This is a prime example of irony... Some of us are capable of it.

But... let's assume that I was being completely straightforward in my communication. Which, in spite of irony, I was, in a certain sense. The number of people who complain about the status of this country and place blame, but ignore the fact that our government is of, by and for the people (in lip service), and do not demand a change beyond spitting vitriol is disturbing and nauseating. I blame the government for letting the people believe that their vote actually makes a difference when we are actually an oligarchy. So... in that sense, it wasn't ironic at all...

BUT, my question still stands... where did I imply, state, or hint at your conclusion? I didn't.
