Unfortunately Yes.


People who have been exposed should be quarantined immediately as symptoms may not become apparent for several days after the initial contact. Signs of sickness are (but not limited) to
-the inability to form coherent, intelligent, or genuinely original thoughts, arguments or opinions
-engagement in erratic, dangerous, irresponsible and otherwise harmful behavior
-obsessiveness and extreme fanaticism of intellectually mind-numbing programming or media
(MTV, Fox News, any Conservative talk show or special, etc)
-sudden and sometimes violent convulsions when approached with a question that requires more than a yes or no answer
-abrupt and sometimes rude sexual references when conversing about explicitly non-sexual objects or articles in nature (the speaker is usually responded with "that's what she said")
-extreme allergic reactions to ideas or notions that are things either
a) outside of their immediate realm of knowledge
b) can not be answered by invoking "God" in the discussion
-possess very low tolerance to wit, cultural and political awareness, and sense of civic responsibility and duty to themselves, others, and/or their environment
-repeatedly communicates in an impersonal stance with others by incorporating text message "language" in everyday exchanges
(i.e will say "brb" instead of saying "be right back")
-will not hesitate to appropriate somebody else's opinions or ideas as their own without due credit or admittance
-will become extremely enraged or upset when confronted with wrongdoing and/or when asked to explain their thoughts or actions
-is easily subdued by the actions or ideas those in power with little to no objection or inquiry
-refuses to question authority or go against the status quo
-wines and complains incessantly but does nothing to commit to change
-profusely seeks the acceptance of others at the expense of their own self-identity and character
ETC
These are only some of the many symptoms of this disease that has become a global phenomena in the last few decades. If you or someone you know has become exposed to this disease seek intellectual help immediately.

Not sure if it is contagious, but it is definitely genetic. :)

Man that is just the nature of the beast. I'm sure when those with the extra stripes were where you are they said the same of the ones supervising them. It is how the military is, was, and will always sadly.
