Re: A SAD, SAD DAY...
Civic, you should def. pay a visit to my country: every wednesday in my town it's twice as much skunk for the same price! Double day! No political discussions, just good old high talk. You're gonna love this one: one of my best friends recently got a full freezer bag (30x30 cm) full of Marihuana. And the guy he got it from has loads more hanging to dry on his attic. Woah....he gets these bags whenever he needs one. :Rasta Ba:
Sacred: having a discussion with you is like having a discussion with a brick wall. You can break your head on it, it just won't budge. I made my point, end of discussion.

yao and asdf...
you simply do not like to be confronted...
yet you both claim that "war" is essential to nature
don't you see that we must argue in order to be tactful with our innate dispositions???
this isn't about me just being right all the time...its about us conducting a thorough argument to continue in a dynamic manner moral perfection, or at least get as close to it as possible
but we must have a level playing field...i claim that we look at morality in a scientific manner...if we argue about and look at evil in terms of consequence rather than intention, we can work through this..
but all you want to do is be "political" and you don't want to be confronted at all..
i don't know...when i am alone, mediation works...but when im communicating about things of great moral concern, i think that reasoning and arguing are very very important....otherwise no real progress can be made
you've probably spent most of your lives bonding with people by staring at the evils of this world and joking them off with irony...as if you could never do anything about it...
i feel you can...maybe my foreigness only seems so because you have never thought of arguing as a means of dialectical growth on a moral level...
its sad, but im not going to go back to just flopping about in sarcasm like everyone else here...
we could have a very real relationship if you allow for it
don't you see that a "self" cannot even exist unless it is juxtaposed to another for an extended period of time...and in a world where morality is disintegrated, and there is no real way of communication, no level playing field (Reason/Arguing), and everyone's relationship determined by profit and loss....there is no actualy morality at all...relationships dont even really exist...the individual is honored in capitalism, its all about the indivual's goal to hoarde as many of the natural resources as possible, and everyone tries to keep pace...never really communicating, too busy trying to keep up with inflation...
No one is communicating...there is no morality right now....and ultimately there is no "selves" ....hence, existential drones everywhere trying to overcome their confusion through irony...much like the comedic gestures you continually throw out in rebuttle to my posts
we cannot be real like this...we cannot help each other...and i think its about time you stop looking at me cynically and realize that the goal here is for our species, not just me

you have to. the guys is about as brain dead as a piece of wood. he runs in circle and gets upset. lol.
cracks me up. i have really tried to be fair with this guy, even though his Theodore Kaczynski views are a little worry some.
he gets upset about world peace when he is the one shooting the guns. wtf?

Krelms idea could be fun, too. Live web-broadcast and stuff...sell the video's. We'd make a fortune off them.

The citizens of the U.S. and the whole world now facing with 4 more years under the presidency of George W. Bush. Will see how is going to work out, there is a lot to do over here. The fact is he won the majority of the votes, which means basically more people voted on him then voted on Kerry. That?s plain math. The nation seems like divided which aren?t makes this country stronger and better. Time will tell the truth.

Re: A SAD, SAD DAY...
asdf,
thats really sad that you compare me to theodore k, ive never hurt anyone in such a premeditated manner
shows how out there YOU really are...
theodore k was anti technology...i have not said a single fucking thing about that
always relying on sarcasm
thats the only form of communication you have been taught
and by making a mock up of me you say you're reducing yourself to my level...well where in this entire thread did I ever start joking around like that
so you dont even know what you are saying...youre just continually stretching yourself thin with your sarcasm
just say you dont give a fuck and ill let it end at that...but dont try and trivialize my arguments with such bullshit
it is lame and it only reinforces what i was saying...and it shows that you ultimately dont care

You have no justice in you lunatic ways and blabber. I have met some loose nuts in my life, by i have never met a psychotic fuck like you.
frankly. you are waste time, breath and air. I thought you might have had some sensible argument, but all you can banter is about the same shit. YOU LOST. SUCK IT UP. AND START LIVING YOUR LIFE YOU PATHETIC LOSER.
and to answer your question. Morality has no place in science. else we would not have the atomic bomb, nor nuclear devices.

asdf are you trying to say that im wrong because i was negative...what the fuck do you call everything you just said???
youre a complete hypocrite and as far as im concerned a completely ignorant piece of shit...don't come on here and start insulting me personally or else you'll get nothing but the same back
i was talking about cultural concerns, not just YOU...so wake the fuck up and stop retaliating with such personal attacks that have no rational basis to them
its ignorant assholes such as yourself that are fucking the world up...
and by the way youre the damn loser...all ive ever seen you do on this board is try to get the last word in on people...
you took everything i said and turned it into a personal attack on you...and that is not the shallow reality i was striving for..you just want the last word and thats it...even if it is a bunch of garbage
youve pissed me off now personally....i think youre a fucking chump...and i have zero respect for you and your evil agenda
:twisted:
i cant believe ive reduced myself to your level...you know what asdf...lets just end this here...i just simply cannot deal with you...i refuse to sit here and continue on like this...
its been reduced to you and i arguing about nothing important...which is 360 degrees from where i was headed and that is not what i wanted...it just manifested that way, unfortunately
you should understand my anger after telling me im not worth the air we breath...that was ridiculous, really pissed me off...
but ive realized, that was your goal...you wanted to take the argument and shift it into a point where you can achieve victory, get the last word simply because you are so used to doing on this board...its become a pathology...ive seen it...its your reputation frankly
im going to chill on this for a while...because i wouldnt want you to walk away feeling like you didn't live up to your own expectations
For what's supposed to be a "progressive community" there's an awful lot of animosity and bitterness here. It's particularly sad when so much of it comes from someone with an "Administrator" tag on their name.
One would think that those who consider themselves progressives would be very open to the free exhange of ideas, and rational discussion, with respect to everyone's point of views.
Re: A SAD, SAD DAY...
AMERICAN JIHADDDDD SHALALALALALALLALALALALALALALAL!!!!!
haha.
first off, i love life and everything it can encompass. I have a very beautiful wife and a newborn child that i love deeply. Everyday I seek to make this world a better place through the use of my hands, legs, and mind. For my child to enjoy this world as I have, I must leave her a place and take care of what I have now. I believe it is my sole duty, why I was placed upon this Earth. I do also have a very heard time with people who fuel negative energy into this lost and confused planet. It is something I am quick to slaughter and displace.
if you wish, i will give you my full apology and deepest regard to the numerous insults i have given. in that, i am sorry for my poor judgement and my character. that is to scacredaew78, not you lobie. you are still an asshole and still suck. :wink:
indeed you are correct, i did use my words very carefully to upset and to cause a certain train of thought. and i am very reluctant to say it has worked. see how pointless an argument can be with a bunch of anger and negative driven words? I understand your concern, but I do not respect the way you have acted upon it. I feel for a person who would like world change and even perhaps world "peace" morality, you have would have took a different approach. i feel you were putting gas into an all ready blazing fire. you were no different in your objective as it pertains to your goal. changes starts within a person, and then it may be exhumed to the outside.
i ask you my friend to lay down you words of anger and to use that energy to fight your worthy cause. something in life are not meant to be changed, and yet if they can they must be reasoned with and dealt with in accordance with time. there is no reason to stir a hornets nest, when it all ready has been stirred.
i look to continuing this conversation, perhaps discussion with you in the future. I only ask you to give respect to all people, even if it is against your view. I will give you my word, I will do the same.
stop sounding like a diplomatic pussy admin and just kick him in the ballistics....;)
Re: A SAD, SAD DAY...
asdf,
your psychology befuddles me
i will let this go for now, so you may continue on in ignorance...
( i mean peace ???)
and yes im sure your ignorance is even further a reality now youve already been breeding....it takes so much energy to keep up with the demands of capitalism and bring up a child into this world...you would never have time or energy to really challenge the system, would you?? therefore, i suppose i understand why it is you are so ignorant and so hopeful in American (capitalistic) ideology....seems like most of the country felt the same way you did, no time to spare, and all the faith in the world that what theyre doing is going to provide them a pillow to die on
all the lack of sleep you must get, the worry about bills, about your childs future, about spending quality time with your wife, about getting away, about working a job you probably don't like to make it by, about drinking coffee every morning just to do it...etc...etc...
that shit will eat you up...domesticate you and put you in a position where you have almost no choicce but to show your kid that this culture is ok as it is...my parents lied to me in the same fashion...but i still love them for it, and ultimately it seems sadly enough that is what most Americans feel they are limited to...breeding is the panacea...breeding so that they can go to the PTA meetings and have their voice heard, finally! they cant communicate with anyone else anyway, right? hmmm.....wonder why???
the negativity i bring is insulting to you personally because you don't want to think that everything youve given up to do is a mistake
so continue on in peace (i mean ignorance), your wife and kids will love you for it even more....i won't resent you personally...you are like just about everyone else in this culture including MYSELF...good intentions, but evil people...(I was attempting to point out earlier how this IS, and how this can be OVERCOME)
ill elaborate more on this theory later if it is WELCOMED??...i may seem pyschotic to you, but i am only emanating theories by philosophers that have written several books that are highly regarded in academia
its only foreign because philosophy is not mainstream...it is not valued, which is a serious serious problem
well anyhow...drink some "High Life" or something, go wax your car, and forget everything I've said...there...is that ok???
is it better to offer a disclaimer at end...will i not get persecuted now??? maybe i should get all Kierkegaardian and just use pseudonymns...well, no, then I'd probably be compared to the DC snipers or something...right??
the pillow costs a lot my friend...to us all...and its not worth the millions sleeping on tapered pipe dreams...ie the suffering
what you do effects all of us...and vice versa...
i do appreciate the apology...i will try to be less emotional and more clear
later

The man throws you an olive branch and you shit on it. Class act, I must say. :evil:
Can't you just accept that people have a difference of opinion than you rather than calling everybody who doesn't agree with you ignorant? Oh wait, I think your exact words (for anybody who voted for Bush or not at all) were "NIHILIST, A CHRISTIAN PEDANT, OR JUST PLAIN DUMB/BRAINWASHED". That just accomplishes nothing.
I certainly don't agree with the people who voted for Bush (or Kerry for that matter), but I certainly don't consider all of them to be ignorant. Many on both sides obviously have no idea who they are voting for beyond The Party (tm). But there are also a lot of people who know the issues, have thought them through, and have made informed decisions based on what is important to them. This includes many of the people on this board who have debated this election thing for the past months - most of whom you have baselessly insulted in this pointless thread.
I didn't vote for Kerry either - I went with an independent candidate (Nader). What does that make me? Nishilist? A hippie pendant? Ignorant? Dumb or Brainwashed??
Learn to accept a difference of opinion rather than being a dismissive more-holy-than-thou twat (I love that word ;) ). Do you want to make the world a better place or sit around and bitch because you don't like how it is currently going? Or is the country soooo fucked up that there is nothing more that can be done?
