I haven't seen it, but I'll look into it.

Money definitely is the problem with the system. Even MLK admitted that racism was not the definite problem ... that it came down to class conflict.

The inherent problem is that the country's progression is often viewed as a business. ... And like a business, it is now going through a failure period (the recession). People who think that this'll blow over and do nothing about it are stupid in that, whether it does or not, it is better to be incorrect and still living okay than incorrect and losing your house.

Of course, I can't quite sum up all of the darkness of greed and money and such, but I'm sure that movie does a good job of it. I actually saw a movie recently that shed some extra light on this whole thing ... Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Prices. Big business is what this country is all about, and that is why it eventually falls apart.

Anyhow, I don't think talking about it is bad. I think talking about it is really good, actually. The thing is that people have to take extra steps. If you only talk about it and don't do anything, then naturally, nothing will get done. If you do a lot but don't talk about it, how do you persuade people to join the cause. I think site was good because a lot of people talked and made people think. So that we know exactly what we want to fight for.

Yes, and with such a postmodern idea presented in Zeitgeist, an idea which, as a result of a life without the problems created by money (that of greed, lust, violence, and poverty), allows for people to live in a peaceful world where we are fully capable to rule over ourselves, and as a result able to see that the morals of the family can be reflected throughout that of global civilization.

Maybe we can post like new topics that aren't sad and paranoid and weird and offensive? That way it won't make us sad?

I've been around here since 03. something like 6 years . It used to be like a second home to me too although i never really posted that much. never really contributed much. people don't even know me here.
But i still have faith in this site and drop in from time to time because in my opinion, this site in not only about a man named Zack De La Rocha, it's a place were like minded ( and sometimes NOT so like minded) people can come together to express their ideas. Human rights abuses, The War in Iraq, Racisim in schools, ...the list gose on! That's what it's all about. FREE SPEECH!
My personal life often prevents me from activly partcipating in this forum ( i have 4 kids!!) and protest rallies where i am now living often turn to blood battles!
but at least here i can keep alive that flame in me that was egnited when i first heard Zack blast out
"Bombtrack" or " Bulls on Parade". . .
if this site is still around, i will be too!
I'll tell anyone who'll listen.

Yeah. I know you're pathetic. For the good of all of us, PLEASE, I'm begging you, don't EVER pro-create.... sexually or asexually, since I'm really not sure that you are truely human.

Love & Kisses
the sweetest person in the world, Jessica <3

What the hell do you think you're doing, telling me the same. I'm sorry, but you have MAJOR problems owning up to own actions. You're not perfect, and you're fighting a losing battle.

What actions? It is none of your business if I procreate, If I'm married if I have kids, it's my life, not yours. Fighting a losing battle? Who says I am fighting at all? It's just another day and I'm putzing around on the internet for lack of better things to do, beats watching people eat bugs on TV. Other than that I don't know what to tell you. dunno.gif
