It's like, Society, man...Vol. 25

Its taken me much of (what was supposed to have been) my adult life to realize the obvious:  you can gather all the evidence in the world, and present it with impeccable logic, but you still can't make them agree with you; its much easier to make them want to agree with you.  You don't convince people in order to get them on your side; you get people on your side in order to convince them.

Here's a corollary:  when you start telling people how fucked-up society is, they're probably going to laugh, so you better hope it's with, rather than at, you.
