p.s. She’s a bad, bad girl so don’t expect to enjoy it all the time. You get the good lumps with the bad.

After reading VA for a while I’m not so sure of her motives anymore. I think she likes it that way. What I really don’t like is that she’s writing to drive traffic and viewership, even when she says she’s not. I think she needs to fess up.

V is relatively good. Wait, I take that back. She’s spot on. The problem that everyone has is that no one takes an objective look at her writing. Everyone has issues with this or that and applies beliefs as such. The problem with the entire world is that right there. People are too self involved to think that people are entitled to their own opinions and just because someone believes something different, that automatically makes it bad. Want examples? Here we go. Racism is a great one. Oh, you have a different culture, you look different, you grew up differently than I did? I hate you. Let’s hang you, burn crosses in your yards, slaughter thousands of your people, destroy your land, confine you to smaller land, give you no subsidaries, etc. Get the point? People need to take a step back and think, “What can I do to make the world a little better today?” and do it. Instead of “You’re not christian/islam/mormon, you should become christian/islam/mormon, or else I will shun/kill/convert you, praise god/allah/god!”. Think I’m a Democrat? Fuck you. I don’t vote. Voting in this country sucks because democracy only works when no one has any money to tip the scales. Since Money runs the country, and the Republicans have money, Guess who wins? The only time anyone else gets a break is when the Republicans do something so bad it shakes the moral Christian fiber of the party (*cough*Iraq*cough*). Will we see Hillary as president? maybe. Will we be fucked? Yes.

Hi Derek. I think a lot of people take a look at her objectively because she has a huge following. The people that don’t, tune her out immediately or take it upon themselves to go on an anti-v quest. She’s popular because we have a gaping void in our world in people telling the truth. Your example of race is a great one. People of all races tell racial jokes with reasonable regularity but we don’t admit it. What we fail to do is have intelligent conversations about race that move us all forward. That’s why we need people like V and her opposites. It’s all a question of balance.
