talking points that piss you off

[fezzyfestoon]

I'm generally repulsed by the concept of whittling down complex, intertwined, fluid issues into often entirely nonsensical sound bites for commercials and hustling. Though I guess in our age of drowning ourselves in information, the US continues to become more and more complicated by its over-simplification and "efficiency" fixation. What bothers me more is the adoption of these cheap marketing lines as actual legitimate conversation. I guess that's the point at this point. I don't know that I could pick any particularly irritating ones because of that.
