Stop trying to be edgy.
There's no dystopian society trying to control your every move, wake up and try to stop regurgitating words spoken by half educated hippies.
I won't say "anarchy! Down with the man bro!" but if you seriously can't even grasp the concept and realities of modern societies, then that oblivious view is what stagnates progress as a human species.
I wouldn't say ignorance and being oblivious is the same thing. It relates to averting one's eyes away. My apologies if it came out offensive fellow funsuber.
@famousone : stop being edgy??? Wtf?? Heard of the NSA?? Operation mockingbird?? Operation northwoods?? Op gladio?? Pentogon papers?? Gulf of Tonkin?? Wars in af-pak, Iraq, libya, Yemen, Syria, Cambodia?? Better stop waving that flag and open your...
Nothing you said even tries to make a point.
You are throwing words out and offering no explanation .
If you don't have a legible argument, leave me alone.
Finally, a coherent point!
Anyways, I didn't forget. I'm not saying that bad things don't happen, I'm just saying that there isn't a world order in control of everything.
Who said world? It's more like multiple individual orders that collectivel control everything and bicker with each other, but you'll never get out from under all of them.
(I feel the need to specify I'm using 'you' in a plural sense here. That wasn't directed specifically at you)
I'd add the idea behind globalization, and although we aren't "controlled" directly, we are influenced and our lives guided by all the various aspects in our society, and it is a form of control that we have come to blindly accept. Not to say there is no need for it, because all human are unique an different we do need some way to establish stability. It is a difficult reality we have when living in large groups.
GM and Chrysler did not. They drew a flow chart that showed some of it paid back, but not all of it. Additionally some companies get tax breaks and bid premiums that are not available to other companies that are in direct competition with one another, this is another form of a gov't gimme.
Watch "The Money Masters". Kinda tough though, 3hrs narrated by an economist but explains how society is the way it is. If you have centralized banking your gov't is corrupt, there's maybe 5 that don't. Not necessarily good or bad, this video will help you understand why
Well, at least the government doesn't manipulate information, media, or any other form of information that is not approved by them-
Also, it's not like the government provides us with free schooling, hospitals, and allows us basic rights.
Right?
Oh! If you want, there are ways to take action on the flaws of our government. You can become a politician for the people- Write bills- That kind of thing~
God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off.
Not free in Canada.nothing is free. Funded through exceptionally high sales taxes and GST and income taxes. Our malls and markets from Hamburg to Lockport are full of Ontario shoppers looking to pay less tax.
Also, yeah America isn't the best, but we shouldn't really complain. My family comes from a third world country where police steal, there's no health care, and they don't have a lot of medicine. Yeah you have to pay for these things in America, but at least you can.
or the government could dictate how much food you eat, what doctor you have, how many children you can have, and you cannot decide if it's right or not because the government's way is the only way and you can't question it...
also...maybe instead of complaining about America and trying to change it...move somewhere else and stop whining? also also...if America sucks so much why are people still clambering to get here?
I keep saying that if you want a socialist open border disarmed society there are plenty of European nations willing to have you, the rest of us don't need you.
