America was founded with wisdom and insight into the carachter of those who immagrated to it. Our founders led the people with the promises of freedom and rights. And we were granted that. Somehow though, through the workings of evil men, things became terribly corrupt, and quickly. What evil you may ask? Well if you look at the way our voting system is set up, for instance, it was not believed that the "common"(?) man knew whom to vote for in the first place. So over the years we have never really decided who went into office. This was and is always decided by someone else as we all saw in our faces at the end of the 2000 elections. So we have been lied to about that from the beginning. Lies to the masses started right away. Although we are aware of things the real decisions were made by puppet presidents. Go ahead and study your history. The early 1900's are full of scandals involving powerful rich men and our government. Was our government taken over by powerful evil men? Was it bought by big business? The answer to both of these questions is yes it was. So now we have king George in the Whitehouse declaring that he is above the law. And we are being invaded in our homes. By 2010 America will be united with Canada and Mexico. I never heard about this until recently, or any of the other shit that is coming out! But it is happening. And by 2012 there are plans to have bio chips inserted into every newborn. Bad news. What do you think?
If you're talking about the spell of money, then I guess you could say you're right on the dot. This is a time where false happiness has taken over many lives, I think anyway. People cling to anything that gives appeal, and the most universally appealing thing is, money. Oh what to do, what to do... there's always something to do.
Lately people think giving up civil liberties is alright as long as we're protected more. What evil could be so great and widespread that we give the government the right to tap our phones and arrest us because there may be a chance we're a terrorist. Give me that chance to be blown up any day, I want my liberties.
if you believe the nations 'fathers' ever actually understood or cared about things like 'all men are created equal' you must be high lol these are the very same people who found nothing wrong with child labor low literacy rates and slavery they found their cornerstone of lifes game used people to profit and at some point got comfortable enough to be honored in historys pages that alone should show you political parties (religious groups as well) are out for their own not the public so this freedom everyone speaks of isn't real you're still bound by the law of the masses no matter how stupid it may be
I want mine too. It seems that the terrorists are only an excuse. How come we haven't impeached this guy? Are we under a drug induced haze. Aren' most Americans on some kind of psychoactive drug. And what about the trend we've taken towards heroin and prescription drug abuse? Lortab and Xanax cocktails are prescribed commonly by doctors all over th U.S.? There is sufficient evidence to prove that the C.I.A. and the D.E.A. have been involved in drug trafficking for a long time. Conspiracy to demoralize us through immorality in our papers and news, to be followed by more immorality at schools and workplaces. These are devices used to set up communistic regimes for centurys. These are evil devices. And with technology and science booming mind control could now be possible. Will the terrorists and the identity thefts, amd the missing children cause us all to welcome a bio chip implant. What about all the lies and corruption? Should we trust them?
I know. We better believe in a spirit world out here. They do and man are they using it. But even if you don't, man do they hate us. The supreme court dictates the masses.
For one, to many Americans are more concerned with themselves and their lives to think to look at the state of the world. Secondly, materialistically speaking, a lot of Americans are happy, in debt, but happy. I firmly believe my generation will be one to bring change, then again maybe ever generation feels like that, then doesn't do anything.
very true this coupled with coddling of gen y will make for at least 3 more before change happens across the board granted the best & brighest of gen y have done amazing things in every country as have older baby boomer era adults an so on the problem doesn't lie within gen y's balls or brains it's the parents of the baby boomers and the boomers themselves that have stopped progress you notice the cartoons slowly get dumber safer less realistic once batman could beat ass and kill someone in a comic or even in animation now his villians can't even use the word death tellitubbies is booming as are lazy town (albeit the better of the bunch) and other stupid ass kid shows that promote one thing...stupidity and flock like following be it of colors and numbers or rules and laws the people who grew up to be great thinkers had bb guns cussed had day dreams not fucking playdates and soccer practice the thinkers are getting snuffed out so all you gen y pot smoking hippies...start fucking!
i really enjoyed this artical and i agree with what is being said, i am also pleased to hear i am not the only one with these thoughts. so in advance i am sorry to take away the seriousness of the thread but where are the generation y pot smoking hippie girls cuase im ready to start fucking for the good of mankind anyway mass assasination is the only thing i have come up with to solve the ever more corruptive goverments. goverments should be afraid of the people , not the other way around BTW on a lighter note- v for vendeta is a good movie (now he had a plan)
haha FUCK YEAH! V for Vendetta ROCKS! That movie blew me away! Next I'm planning on going to see 300! Any movie reviews? Don't give anything away but is it good? Oh and thats some crazy food for thought...
of course... But America hasn't changed much, imo. It has never wholeheartedly exemplified the ideals which it pretended to be founded on. Many of the founding fathers were douchebags of the highest degree in many ways, Jefferson, for example had all these great poetic ideas and at the same time can be quoted: [SIZE=-1]"I advance it therefore as a suspicion only, that the blacks, whether originally a distinct race, or made distinct by time and circumstance, are inferior to the whites in the endowments of body and mind." [Notes on Virginia, Query XIV, From The Life and Selected Writings of Thomas Jefferson, p. 262 Excerpts][/SIZE] and George W. (washington that is): [SIZE=-1][/SIZE] [SIZE=-1]"They (the Jews) work more effectively against us than the enemy's armies. They are a hundred times more dangerous to our liberties and the great cause we are engaged in. It is much to be lamented that each state, long ago, has not hunted them down as pests to society and the greatest enemies we have to the happiness of America."[/SIZE][SIZE=-1] [Maxims of George Washington by A.A. Appleton & Co. ][/SIZE] I mean it's a double edged sword I guess. But we were never meant to achieve these lofty goals of freedom and equality and such they're just abstract ideas that were supposed to point us in the right direction...
Race plays an important role in the upset of the nation. To the leaders poor, uneducated, and Christian are enough to hold a bias against anyone. Regardless of what you think. The government has hatred for everyone, regardless of race. Race is only a device.
its little more than scapegoating this could be bushies flow chart war crimes in the news > drop some fall guys for spying on americans so said war crimes/mistakes are buried under so much patriotic crap that goes no where (cuz they already signed shit in tacked to other shit making your protesting invalid lol) lather rinse repeat as needed per voting season
I am afraid that the time has come for that part of the agenda where it does not matter who we vote for, and these things will forge ahead anyway. It was planned that when it became too late and they were too powerful that things would be pushed regardless of who likes it.
Oh my god dude, get off your fucking horse. First of all, people emigrated into this country because they seeked refuge from political and religious strife and persecution in Britain and other places. THAT is why we have freedom of religion. That is why we have rights that no other country has. The 2000 election was a huge mishap, but that is ONCE, and that is based on human error. The way our voting system is set up makes the results askew from the actual votes (popular vote vs electoral college, for example). YOU MY FRIEND NEED TO STUDY YOUR HISTORY. Do NOT go back to the 1900's, go back to 2000 BCE and START FROM THERE. If you think America is the first place to see the face of corruption, you need to just walk out of this country and do some traveling. Go see the other thread about Utopia. You need to read about life in Russia, or China. Go ask a Russian Jew why they fled to Israel. Go ask Cubans why they come to America. Go ask anyone in the world why the United States, no matter how loved or hated we are, is THE NUMBER ONE PLACE people want to move to. It is ONLY AMERICANS who want to move out, but that is because we are Americans! We are perfectionists. We love our country, and we love our people, which is why we're so critical of our government. The fact is, you're lucky you even get to vote!!! You're lucky you even get to go on this site!! Do you think Saudi Arabia will let you write things like this on the internet? If you smoke marijuana in Egypt, do you know what happens to you? If you say "Bashir al-Assad is an asshole" in Syria, do you know what will happen to you? Until you appreciate this country, and you appreciate the fact that no matter what, Americans, not the president, or the secretary of defense, or whatever, are the protectors of America, you need to keep your mouth shut. My family is from Lebanon. I was born in Syria. Do you know what happened in Hama in Syria? Here's a little history lesson for the "I'm not proud to be in this country anymore": The Muslim Brotherhood (Sunni Muslims) hate the leader of Syria (Alouite, basically a sect of Shi'ite). His name was Hafez al-Assad at the time. The Muslim Brotherhood tried to kill Hafez because he was a dictator, much like what you think of Bush. Do you know what Hafez did? He ordered his entire army to circle the entire city of Hama, where the Brotherhood was headquartered. He ordered his troops to surround the city, move in, and destroy it. He and his generals later bragged when asked how many were killed. Some people heard 10,000. Others heard 20,000. But no, they boasted and said they killed at least 35,000. And what became of Hama? They bulldozed the entire city, with all the people still in it, into one giant football field. THAT IS LIFE BUDDY. THAT, is the real world. You are living in a drug induced fantasy land. WAKE UP!!!!! I was raised in Beirut, a city that has been completely destroyed and rebuilt 7 times in the past 10,000 years. The last civil war lasted 15 years, and is a major factor of the problems in the Middle East today. 300 Marines were killed in 1 second when a man drove a truck filled with dynamite into the Marine base. They did the same to the French. Now, my family lives here in New Jersey, in one of (used to be THE) wealthiest county in the US. Do we have regrets? Do we want to move back because of Bush? Ask yourself, how would you like to live under Putin? You'd have already been poisoned to death by now! WAKE UP DUDE!!!!!!! Stop telling everyone we're doomed!!!!!! Individuals like YOU who have NO idea what life is like out there in the world, who take everything America has for granted, are what poison our minds with ridiculous opinions. Please, everyone reading this thread, take the time to appreciate what you have. You'll do a much better job of critiquing it that way!!!
^ simple answer to this is at least the chinese/middle eastern people know where they stand with euro politics it's all prissy ass games cover ups and silly population control via education and simple trends some would prefer to have the dicks show themselves as dicks so they can at least get a fair shot at lopping the fucks off lol others like the games and trout the measly 'freedom' to obey unjust laws as a means to keep the dick loppers from lynching their passive asses
WTF are you talking about, did you even READ what I wrote? People in China and the Middle East AREN'T ALLOWED TO HAVE OPINIONS, they are NOT allowed to HAVE A STANCE on ANYTHING. EVEN IF they do THEY CANNOT VOICE IT, they cannot do ANYTHING with their beliefs. Weedy is making it out to seem that "Americans are under a spell" and that soon the world will be taken over by a NWO led by some fucking incompetent idiot that nearly choked to death on a pretzel. Such fucking bullshit.
