Why Do You Even Raise These Absurd Snowflake Issues?

Your questions may raise concern regarding your sanity and/or loyalty
Why do you ask if our land can really support this increasing flood of immigrants
What do you mean those politicians all sound alike as they read their sponsor’s words that our How How can you view our divinely ordained progress as a tragic charade which cannot be maintained
Why do you see your neighbors as tragicomic fossils riding out upon their dinosaurs

Now why in the world would you even question the identical nature of your good breakfast eggs
Why do you find it necessary to ask about all those young men being educated in prison
Just where did you hear about questioning our further increases in defense spending
How is it your concern that cloned franchise outlets of all types appear everywhere

Would you expand on your issues regarding a certain surveillance program we do not acknowledge
Exactly what is your concern regarding our nation’s petroleum industry-developed energy policy
Why do you ask about the sugary caffeine all our young children continuously guzzle
Why are you second-guessing the board’s latest new strategic vision going forward

Is there any legitimate reason you need information beyond that in our official press releases
Why would you say there is no taste to these bright red tomatoes that now ship so well
Why do you ask about development plans for some grandparent’s property sold due to higher taxes
How did you become so concerned that your commuting costs are funding terrorists

Why would you even ask how global economies of scale are actually vital to your own well being
How can you question the value of greed and selfishness in the pursuit of individual happiness
Who commands you to continue harassing us over classified issues concerning our national security
Why would you associate the smell of a feed lot with mass scale human suffering and death

Just where is this so-called right to privacy granted among our hallowed freedoms
Why do you ask us to measure the rate of return on our fabulous executive’s salaries and bonuses
Where is your issue with our cutting funding required to enforce those laws contrary to our beliefs
What is the source of your out-of-touch concern that every slice of white bread is the same

Why can’t you stop questioning our need for your uninformed but quiet patience
From what fake news outlet did you obtain this skepticism regarding the competence of your leaders
Why do you think a time will come when alternative energy will occupy us as much as the Middle East
Who told you that the noise of our industrious society is not good for your health

Why will you not participate in a dialog where we frame the debate as well as the outcome
Tell us why you find it necessary to continue to clamor for their official resignations
How dare you question the proven truth of continual compounded economic growth
Why would you even wonder if corporate-sponsored politicians serve your best interests

Why do you ask that they follow any other beacon than their own studious and selfish greed
When did you first start to believe that our policy of exceptionism is a fantasy-based fairytale
How is it you cannot see the greater return from another new strip mall over a quiet meadow
Why would you even question the use of all this private data we must gather




Is there something else you would like to discuss after this last unnecessary outburst
Why do you even ask if abortion, flag burning and gay marriage are really important
Where did you first hear that everyone lives in a financial house of credit cards
How can you say we need to stop this fictional climate change to slow a purported mass extinction

Why do you think that loud pickups and Harleys violate your so-called, tofu-based ‘Wa
Is it just you or does it seem really hot around here, all the time
Why would you dare even ask about revisiting decisions made in talks with my savior
Can you please describe for us the feelings that always put you into such a hurry

How can you scoff at their good efforts to green their hollow McMansions
Who convinced you our Traditional Family Values are newly-created and not made to last
Why do you claim that we daily de-construct our grandchildren’s futures
What causes you to think our waste disposal poses a threat to a healthy lifestyle

Why do you find it harmful and hypocritical to tax tobacco, liquor and gambling
Where did you get that quaint but false notion that healthcare does not belong in the free market
Why do you question our fire sale as we exit the business of species preservation
Why do you ask if our pursuit of happiness really has not even subjective benefits

Why do you claim that our plant and animal husbandry is no different than factory production
How can you imagine questioning that which we summarily reject with our dismissive smirks
How dare you say all our actions are merest posturing in front of the political pollsters
Who told you that human populations are unnaturally high and bound to crash

What does sustainability bring to the pursuit of our own enlightened self-interest
Why do you foolishly ask if ethanol and coal are viable as clean energy alternatives
How can you deny the one true god who has so obviously blessed all of us so far
Why do you want us all to cram into unsafe featureless shoeboxes to drive to work

Where did you get the notion that we should clean up our own back yards first
Who is spreading the idea that we are paralyzed in a polarized political stalemate
Why do you ask that we scrutinize military spending as closely as we do social programs
How can you conclude that things really are not getting better all the time

What leads you to believe we are responsible for this purported mass extinction
Who told you we unfairly gerrymandered voting districts to ensure our perpetual re-election
How did you conclude that free enterprise has strip-mined the ocean of all its life
Why do you question our myriad blessings when so many suffer in abject poverty
