      Do people lie flat in the United States and elsewhere?

      At John F. Kennedy’s presidential inauguration in 1961, he inspired Americans to see the importance of civic action and public service.

      The JFK Library says his historic words, “Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country”, challenged everyone to contribute in some way to the public good.

      This call came after the so-called Beat Generation movement prompted people – dubbed beatniks – to rebel against conformity and traditional lifestyles in the 1950s. “Beat” was initially slang for “beaten down”.

      Jesus Christ, what kind of liberalism is this?

      SCMP gets the wall.
