The best part about The Two Minutes Hate (2MH from now on OK? Not really catchy but I'm open to suggestions) is it is on YOUR PHONE and you can take it anywhere.
It even has the false dichotomy of different channels on 2MH.
Hate Muslims? Corporate US media and all it controls, including various productions that bill their programming as news is gonna be a blast.
Hate Jews? You got plenty to choose from in the alt media mostly.
Hate the government? There's plenty to choose from, depending on if you're a Constitution guy, a 2nd amendment guy, an anarchist guy, whatever, there's content available to amp you up and get you mobilized.
I just feel like everyone is gonna start getting amped up for a bit and it's going to be very interesting to watch.

Well the French are always Jonesing for a revolution, maybe this is it. They're already throwing grenades and whatnot.

America needs a revolution.

I imagine if either Huxley or Orwell were alive today both of them would feel the need to clarify that they wrote a warning for their time and not a fucking manual for the next generation.

Nice observation. I heartily agree. Although I have conquered (or am in the process of conquering) my hate by engaging in redditing. The peer pressure to join in with the hate is not there when we are all anonymous.
