Religions of "peace and love" spread violence and hate. Nations kill hundreds of thousands in the name of "freedom and democracy", with the dead being labelled "collateral damage" - as if they were buildings rather than human beings. Media outlets that claim to stand for "truth and free speech" spew out nothing but lies and the propaganda of the elite. No voice is ever heard that offers any challenge to the owners of the media and the elite controllers of the world. Stock traders rig the markets to ensure a one- way bet for their insider cartels. Bankers use others' money to enrich themselves, and if anything goes wrong they use others' money to bail themselves out. Lawyers sell the law to the highest bidder as if it were popcorn. Politicians, elected in the "name of the people" have nothing but contempt for the people. They are practitioners of self-service, not public service. Capitalism, the economic system of the rich elite who control the vast bulk of the capital, view human beings as nothing but consumers whose only function is to buy the objects they are selling to them. Thus humans are transformed into zombies wandering in soulless shopping malls looking to buy "things" they have been brainwashed into believing will make them "happy". They themselves become "things". The "happiness" of making a purchase is as fleeting as the usefulness of the object purchased. Obsolescence is inbuilt. In six months' time, you will be told that the shiny, state-of-the-art object you have just bought is junk for losers and that all of the cool people have moved on to the new state-of-the-art object. And the treadmill goes on forever. Many women define "retail therapy" as the greatest pleasure in their life, their reason for being. Men worship sport and think that when multi-millionaires stride out onto a field, their own hopes and dreams are somehow embodied by these fake gladiators (who definitely WON'T be putting their lives on the line like the real gladiators).

Oh you just noticed this?


Instead of sitting down on your computer typing things such as this why don't you do sumthing?

ETA: Oh nice you got this from here. Sorry but this isn't acceptable...

Should've posted a quote?

That's why I've been wondering why your text seems so familiar to me.

Yup!

Not much changes does it? Been this way since the first caveman clubbed the second.

Try to do the best you can at being part of the solution.

Don't give fatcats your money to play with.
Don't buy disposable crud that has a shelf life so it gets replaced.
Grow your own food.
Roll your own cigarettes.
Don't feed yourself with junk food.
Throw out the TV.
Trust nobody who says "trust me".
Don't feel like you need to do what others expect.
Take time to savour special moments.
Make stuff.
Fix stuff.
Invent stuff.
Recycle stuff.
Never let anyone stop you from revealing truth.

Be happy, that bugs "them" more than anything.


cheers

What did ya just wake up -maybe just born??
Its called survival of the fittest, except now its called the greediest.
Its the constant bombardment of bull # that makes us that way
I hope you are not so young [me-55] because people my age know the young are f***ed
We know the best of this world has passed.
We know we screwed the people that come after us.
Technology advancing faster than we were ready for.
Money over values because we dont share.
God letting the barndoor open, and the sheeple got out.
I agree with the comment posted above-find the most happiness you can and help anyone you have the means to.

Like the movie said---PAY IT FORWORD--if only people would listen. I didnt but i do now.

I won't bother alerting a mod because the words you placed here were meant in good faith I'm sure. Perhaps a mod will U2U you.

Something is wrong with the world? It took you this long to find out? Welcome to the last days. As predicted by Jesus Christ in the Bible. If you want to survive, i'd suggest you repent and get crackin on your bible studies. It's not going to be long now until he returns.

All of our current problems stem from our irrational belief that *violence*, in increasing doses, can be used to solve complex social problems.

Everyone solution to everything is a kneejerk reaction - make a new law (point more guns), raise taxes here while loweing them there, (steal from one group here in order to appease this group there), potition some government guy for favours (bribes), print more ficticious money (counterfitting), terrify and abuse our children through religious indoctrination, deprive them of real education by quartering them in the brain destroying public schools (funded by state violence)....

Everyone wants to get behind the gun and point it at the people who they disagree with. And they want to call that progress. There can be no progress through violence - violence always comes at a net loss for all involved. The immense spike in gain for the few is easy to see, and thus violence is seductive, but its cost is hidden and far more widespread than the immediate and temporary gains accrued to a small minority who benefit from the effects of violence - a tax credit, a favorable regulation, a tarriff, a bailout. This is a negative sum game we are playing, which must end in destruction.

We are simply living in a world saturated by coersion, and so much so that it is invisible, much like telling a fish he is swimming in water. Involuntary coersion is the foundation of our current, catastrophic system, and yet almost all critisims ignore this truism, almost pathalogically. We simply cant accept that our consent to monopolistic mega violence could indeed have something to do with our current state of affairs. Until we grasp that problems can only be suppressed through aggression, only to resurface later with increased ferocity, and that the only true path to peace and sustainablility is voluntaryism, we will forever cycle from rise to fall to destruction. And with our current level of tech, we cannot afford another destruction cycle.
