    Um, I'm starting an Amnesty International group at my school, but haven't been able to go to any actual protests cause I couldn't find anyone to bum a ride with. :(

    Peace,

    hmm. you must of took it differently then i was hoping. i ment go to some of the demonstrations. and protesting the Iraq war isnt about hipsters you know its about the war! we are just part of it. get my drift? so your right you cant drive to the WAR movement ( the war movement is just part of the hipster movement. ). that is why i want to go. so i can use my rights and express them in a GOOD WAY. i know i am just a talker bout it to. but i cant do a whole lot till my car runs and i have enough bottles of lead additive/substite and enough money for gas! yo like to go? where do you live? i live in Nebraska and depending on where the closest protest is at is which direction i go. we have a long way to go but look what we accomplished! soon you can mary whoever you want, express yourself as clearly as the sun shining in, and live without worry of being cut down for your beliefs! as someone once said. If everyone demanded peace enstead of another television set, then thered be peace! REMEMBER THIS MOST OF ALL. Peace, Love, Harmony, and Tollerance begins INSIDE your HEART not head. i know i am talking ( currently ) out of my head but that is only temp. my heart is alseep in bed. its 4:30 a.m. and this is what i am talking about me getting not enough sleep for! well i better go and see if i can get to sleep!

    Unfortunately, to be perfectly honest, I haven't done enough to help the movement. But one of my future goals is activism, and I vow to do that.

    My schools 25 miles away so i drive there in my honda accord, a low emissions vehicle. Once there i park it and walk or bike to anywhere on campus.


    Side note: My campus is 28,000 acres total but the classes are only on about 1,000 of those acres. The rest are trees.

    Peace,

    and you? said/put ALL the old hipsters have sold out! being a hipster is not about getting mad about something. its listening to your heart. peace, love and harmony starts within and grows out. TRUST ME. a hipster is more about growth and self searching. yes hipsters, heck anyone gets mad once in a while. but dont let the anger control you! being a hipster just isnt in the head in other words its in the heart most of all.

    p.s. the older hipsters are still here. you just gotta look!

    Being a "hipster" was never really about anything. It was just a buncha people doing whatever the hell they felt like then a bunch of people decided to set up a system and structure to it, becoming the most hypocritical stereotypes ever. To be a "hipster" you dont have to be a vegetarian, buhhdist, protester, activist or anything like that crap. You just are. Jesus... It was a generalizatio by the by. A majority decided to take the bandana off and move it around to their neck

    PEace,

    right there you said to be a hipster you have to do whatever you want. see. being a hipster is knowing yourself/ finding yourself now thats not sterotypical. i dont wear tye dye all the time, or bells. hipster is a philosophy. not a way of life. you discover yourself/know who you are. its a philosophy. there cant be no peace wihtout inner peace. it all leads down to this. find yourself. i am not going to judge you i jsut think you should walk the extra mile. like so many others have refused to do.

    Peace,

    i am not living a certain way. i just think that doing whatever you want is lazy. i mean if everyone wanted and wanted who would give? we need a ballance. and the earth cant keep doing all this forever. thats all i am saying. this is suposed to be for the better. i mean in the long run where will sitting down eating potato chips waching the tv get you except lazy & overweight. yes we would all like to do that but its like the saying goes. you sew what you reap. in otherwords whatever you do will come back to you. so make it something positive pllease. for ALL our benifits. i worry about the future. and WE must act NOW. take this as enlightment enstead of something cutting you down.

    Activism isnt a certain way? And the need to project said activism onto others? Food for though
    You wouldnt need to. If everyone did as they pleased then you would have a utopian society after the first 80% died off from stupidity. We would "de-evolve" technologicly and many would die cause they cant farm for shit but we would be better in the end.
    Your right. Eventually the sun will engulf it. But the earth will be fine and kickin long after we are gone. All that will be left as a testament to our existance will be concrete gardens and plastic.
    Better for who?
    Ah the paradox. You think those people at the potato chip factory want to be there? They do what they want and say fuck all to work. No more chips. You think the TV people want to go in there and stress over missing a censor on the teen choice awards? Or be sure to cut in time if a tit pops up? They leave, no TV. Thus you cant sit on your couch (Which wouldnt even be made) and watch tv (which you couldnt get) and eat a product that doesnt exist and watch a program that doesnt air.
    Then do it
    Then take the consequences like the evolved beings we are.
    If I bust my ass for soemone else its not exactly positive for me is it? All give no gain?
    Yes. Day wasted on helping others and tireing yourself out, plus stress, plus the anti-peace people who may try to kick the shit out of you for a laugh... Thats all benificial
    Dont... we wont be here long.
    THen shut your computer off and march the streets. Get a bullhorn, some rations and start walking.
    Likewise... but a little cutting you down. I enjoy pushing people off 10 ft high soapboxes of deciet, hypocricy and foolishness.
    Yeah! Yoko's helping by hocking his art to Chuck Taylor so people can pay 70 bucks on a pair of shoes with his art and perpetuate the machine. Johnny would be proud

    First, not bitching but use '/quote" surrounded with [ and ] to stop a quote and begin a new one with "quote" suroundeded likewise. It makes it easier to read. ok here we go

    Ok... You believe that protesting is right... Thats not a certain way of life? Dont dodge
    Duh. Thats where the 80% comes in. A huge portion of the population will die because they cant farm or forage. 20% is a wide margin too. I get hungry, I will forage for the foods I need, be it apples, mushrooms, berries etc etc.
    We arent going to kill the world. Being as this is the first occurence of said deminerilization in existance, we have no idea the long term effects. We have no idea what the land will be like in 1000 years. We can only speculate. How many times were eggs good then bad?
    Lets think about this. If I am only concerned with myself, it will get YOU nowhere. If I'm only thinking of myself then it should get me somewhere. If your talking about mentally or concious... fuck it I hate people anyway. I wont be feeling guilty when I croak.
    They go there to get paid. Paid poorly often. If suddenly we all decided to do what we want instead then people will naturally break down the system we use, from currency to mechanics. The guy sitting eating potato chips is acheiving pleasure to himself. Hes gaining satisfaction from doing it (or maybe not, were not him) and thats something
    Ok... your missing the point here. If you dont care, then the weaker part of the speices will die off leaving the stronger ones to survive, the way NATURE intended.
    And sometimes you need to stop playing games and hit the guy with the bat. Still metaphorical here. Instead of playing with the opposition, removee it. I act with positivity toward myself. If everyone worried about themselves then we could all be in check and you wouldnt NEED to help others
    Again this world bussiness. You use signs that come from trees, recycled or not. See my point? The idea is that your NOT acomplishing anything. Your wasting energy, resources, and yourself. Its about more than laughing. They beat the shit outta you, you go home and use a plastic bandaid to cover up your cuts. BAM more resources. Your thinking on a very little level here. Broaden to the larger scope.
    Precislly. If everyone worried about their own shit, theyd have no one to blame, no one to fight and something like heaven may dawn.
    Procrastinate and ration away. The strongest cases were spontanious. Good to know your dedication only is as far as a days travel.
    She didnt do shit to me and I'm not mad at her. I'm pointing out that Lennon is in fact dead and this, if nothing else, is evident proof of this. You think he would sell his work to a shoe company? Its about whoring. Besides the Beatles were rich, it was easy for them to preach ideals.
