Boy with money VS Boy without money

Boy= human beings

Money = PROBLEM

It’s amazing, we’d have the same kind of video but of how every family cultivates, feeds and raises their own children. And probably Asians would be better off, given that they’re used to manufacturing all sorts of things since young as it’s commonly appreciated.

Stop this madness now. You do not have to be a part of it. You cannot change the world, not because it doesn’t want to be changed (all though such levels of conformist hypocrisy exist -particularly in my country) but because history has proven that those in command will do everything in their realm of control to stop things from changing. After all, how is one more atomic bomb terrible? we just want to prove a point- yee haaa!

We are in the verge of a massive social revolution. It has all ready begun in some countries, and it wont take long for it to arrive to your own doorstep. Older people, the most capable (economically and resourcefully) are unfortunately too accustomed to the way things are (like good ol’ john here, who refuses to believe that world problems should affect him if he was blessed by the Lord after all).

However, if you find yourself living your first or second decade, it is in your hands to decide what to do with your life, and start changing the way people ignorantly think.

Get out of the big cities! Flee modern economy! Use a bike -fuck fossil fuels. Look for alternative solutions EVERYWHERE. Dedicate a few minutes to contemplate the sky, or the moon, or the sun, or the clouds- hopefully you’ll realize how this is not your planet to control. Look for the bigger picture. Look for the smaller picture, look how bugs make nature go round. Read about sustainable development and FREE TRADE. Read about non violent revolutions. Read about that 3/4 of the world denominated the THIRD WORLD. Read about failed states and who labels them such. Ponder on how much logic it makes that ONE man has the destiny of 307,870,000 lives upon his hands. Read about small communities. Believe in the family as the perfect social circle. Research how much this system fucks families. Concentrate on the facts.

How many people die each hour of starvation, of aids, of bullet wounds?

How much has the divorce popularity risen among the world population in the last 10 years.

How much has homosexuality increased in the past decades?

How has the ability of self-journalism, aided by youtube, helped to raise social awareness?

WHY ARE YOU HERE, WHERE DID WE COME FROM, WHERE ARE WE GOING?

Think further!

This world economy, the rate in which we are consuming earth resources, climate change, and technological maths prove that if we don’t do something, the children of our children will wake up to hell on earth.

CHANGE NOW. LEAVE THE SYSTEM. BE PRO LIFE, AGAINST DESTRUCTION.

I think we do need to put this all in perspective. Reading the comments, several things come to mind. John, i don’t think our country is the way it is because of God; steeglecobeegle, being gay and Christian is not incompatible (despite what the fundies tell you). Lonnie has a point, if spoken somewhat confrontationally. I think we do have to recognize that the poor will be with us always. We are fortunate (blessed, if you will) to live in the west where we do not have to put our children to work. No, we cannot educate the world, and because of our military we rest in the freedoms we do have. Yet, Kieran and Astro have made the best point of recognizing that knowledge is the first step for us to change the world. Each of us has to do our part in affecting decisions of our country; I do hope we continue to strive to help those around us and across the world without compromising who we are as a nation.

Good post, Josh. Thanks.

LIFE VERSES DEATH… WAR VERSES PEACE… FOOD VERSES BULLETS

All valid points in these posts and well worth reading.

Bottom line though… War kills and maims our brothers, our sons, our daughters, our sisters.

Sex produces healthy babies with open minds. Question is, are we going to feed them the same warrior shit that we were fed, or do we teach them to make love, not war?

I tell my kids to stop admiring limp dick, Rambo warriors with huge deadly weapons. They’re not nice, never have been, never will be. Massive egotistical arse holes to a man, and completely unaware of the suffering, death and destruction they cause to their fellow man.

Most armchair warriors who admire Rambo and his kind, become hysterical when they see their sons with an erect penis. “Put it away!” they scream, “it’s disgusting, where is that nice toy machine gun I bought you for Christmas? The season of joy and peace to all mankind… Can’t you play with that for once, go shoot that gook kid next door, and while you’re at it, waste that black bastard at number 36, how dare they buy houses in a white neighbourhood.”

Show this guy pictures of boy soldiers on this blog and he will say, “So what? killing is cool!

Show the same boys masturbating, or god forbid, making love, and this site will be zapped by the powers that be overnight. Seen it happen before, time and time again.

The web used to be awash with free speech, now it’s run by the same greedy goons that control the other main stream media. Say the wrong thing, post the wrong image, the wrong clip, and it’s good night boy blog.

We are all conditioned to love war and fear sex, especially under age sex. Anybody who tries to reverse this irrational trend is bullied and vilified by a pious joe public, still indoctrinated by puritanical religious nonsense and an unshakeable a belief in some obscure omnipotent being, always ready to pitch lustful sinners into a fiery furnace and reward sanctimonious grovellers with a halo, white nighty and a cute set of wings. Oh and don’t forget the harp. That keeps pure fingers busy and away from their stiff naughty bits.

Do angels have naughty bits?

John, I don’t really understand your comment.

First, what “NUKE Umbrella” are you talking about? There is no functional anti-ballistic missile system deployed in Europe, by the USA or by anyone else. Occasionally there are discussions of building radar facilities and interceptor facilities in central and eastern Europe, and then the plans get dropped or changed around, partly because they only serve to antagonise the Russians, partly because some of the countries being “protected” don’t want the stuff there anyway, and partly because it’s just a waste of huge amounts of money.

If by “NUKE Umbrella” you mean the capacity to retaliate using nuclear weapons, then your facts are skewed. Britain and France have had nuclear weapons for over half a century. Quite apart from that, there is currently no threat whatsoever to Western Europe that U.S. nuclear weapons are somehow deterring. And there hasn’t been for over a decade. Any putative Russian invasion of Western Europe would now have to start a thousand miles away. And aggression from the Russians right now consists of nothing more than flying their creaky old aeroplanes around the North Atlantic (much like the USA constantly flies spy planes round the fringes of Chinese airspace) and making some Ukrainians cold.

As for “most of Asia”, no the USA does not provide protection or deterrence for most of Asia; it provides it for two small countries where there are specific issues. Yes the North Koreans did manage to explode one rather wobbly nuke of their own, but their military is really rather laughable when it comes down to it. That leaves Taiwan as the one place seemingly in need of U.S. protection. But all the Chinese need to know is that the U.S. has a convincing response to either a conventional or nuclear attack. That doesn’t cost a trillion dollars a year.

As for the role of “World Cop”, it isn’t really credible, either by the U.S. acting alone or the U.S. acting with British and other allies. I don’t think anyone could argue that the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have made the West safer, or indeed made the surrounding regions safer. Nor can it be convincingly argued that they’ve made the people in those counties more safe, more happy or more “free”. As for the U.S. interfering in Georgia and other places, that would better be described as world provocateur than world policeman.

Which basically means you and I agree – we think the USA shouldn’t be interfering in such things. That being the case, the ridiculous budget is unjustified.

It’s important to remember that what’s being highlighted is the sheer scale of this. Britain is another country that spends a very high proportion of its GDP on the military, but the sums involved are very very small compared to the USA. The media and some U.S. politicians like to portray countries like Russia or China as militarily aggressive, but as others have said, their budgets are tiny – absolutely tiny – in comparison to the USA.

I had to smile at Hoskins arguing that the military industries can’t be shut down because they’ve grown so big that it’s just not possible. I think that’s basically admitting the existence of the problem people are suggesting exists!

Scott says:

Thanks trepak for the perspective. I think the solution to much of what you are talking about is conceptually straightforward, but it would be politically difficult. If Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, the U.S., the British Commonwealth, the E.U. and maybe a few other countries I have overlooked, all agreed to use trade policy to enforce consistent standards of health and safety, no child labor, collective bargaining, basic human rights, and a living wage, most of the other countries in the world would soon start distributing the wealth more equitably. In other words, treat your workers fairly or we don’t trade with you. China would certainly come around very quickly. If it can go from complete Communism to exploitive Capitalism in twenty years without a change of government, it can transform to responsibly regulated Capitalism just as easily. The British Commonwealth would have to get some of its member countries up to the standards, and hopefully the U.S. would improve its distribution of wealth also. Although politically hard, this idea is not much different from the admission process that the E.U. has been imposing on its new member states. If you can do it over there, why can’t we slowly expand the concept beyond Europe.

Congratulations, by the way, on the ratification of the Lisbon Treaty, especially the Charter of Fundamental Rights. I wish America would update our Bill of Rights to match it.
