give me the ******* battle-flag and let me pledge allegiance. let the boys cry, let the girls sing, let the old-folk mumble and groan, but give me your trials, your tribulations, and let us go to war. we are losing to an enemy with no god, no hell, no entropy but the one we-- make and the world will end in fifty years if we don't do something; collapse under the weight of its student loans, its political polarization, its religious animosity and identity politics, its carbon emissions slowly melting the ice cap. **** your pity, **** your intellectual debate, and pick up the life-water in your hands and help the thirsty. people die while you pretend they don't exist. give the ******* battle-flag, bitter neighbor, i'm pledging to not ******* it up like your generation did.

war of polarization
give me the ******* battle-flag and let me pledge allegiance. let the boys cry, let the girls sing, let the old-folk mumble and groan, but give me your trials, your tribulations, and let us go to war. we are losing to an enemy with no god, no hell, no entropy but the one we-- make and the world will end in fifty years if we don't do something; collapse under the weight of its student loans, its political polarization, its religious animosity and identity politics, its carbon emissions slowly melting the ice cap. **** your pity, **** your intellectual debate, and pick up the life-water in your hands and help the thirsty. people die while you pretend they don't exist. give the ******* battle-flag, bitter neighbor, i'm pledging to not ******* it up like your generation did.
