The Rational Response Squad is a group of atheist activists who impact society by changing the way we view god belief. This site is a haven for those who are pushing back against the norm, and a place for believers of gods to have their beliefs exposed as false should they want to try their hand at confronting us.

Pixielated, By Brian37
Mr Deeds
Went to town
Was horrified
By what he found
A windfall
Dropped in his lap
Bringing the termites
Out to feast
The bread lines full
Mouths to feed
He wanted to help
Surrounded by greed
His advice
A top the hill
If your car makes it up
Do not dwell
Out at sea
Some have boats
To lazy to row
Or help those who dont
Pixielated
Is that of Rush
Jaded Trump
Of that ilk
Not the man
Who sees the suffering
Not the man
Who helps you up
(end)
It really is true, the more life changes the more it stays the same. I just watched "Mr Deeds Goes To Town" and it depicted the attitudes of the rich during the Great Depression, vs those who had something to give and did. Now we are in a similar boat, and we still have jaded people who think that they wont get hurt if they let other people sink. A society is as only as strong as those at the bottom.
"Pixielated" was a word used by two old ladies to describe "Mr Deeds", in the movie. I am using it here to describe the jadedness of those who think starving the rest of society to explode profits is sustainable.
