Peace and love to ALL

Why do people commit suicide?

Why do people cut themselves?

Why do girls become anerexic and bulimec?

Why do kids bring guns to school?

Why do kids get depressed...so they start using meds, and abusing them?

Why do girls feel the need to act like sluts to impress guys?

Why cant people show their sexuality freely, without worrying about being judged?


In the Bill Of Rights, it says we have FREEDOM OF SPEECH! So why are we so afraid to speak up for ourselves?


I KNOW WHY!

Cliques

"Gangstas"

"Preps"

"Nerds"

"Goths"

"Emos"

"Scene//Hardcore kids"

"Punks"


^^^AND THATS NOT EVEN HALF OF THEM!

Society in general


We live in a world where if your not skinny, not beautiful, not sexy, not straight...your tortured, abused, and humiliated. We say that we are all equal but, there is still racism, sexism, and people judging others based on there religion, color, size, heritage, ect.

IS THIS RIGHT?

IS THIS THE NATION WE LIVE IN AND FIGHT WARS TO SUPPORT?


I AM SICK OF IT!
Stereotypes, and everything else.
I want to live in a good place, without suicide, rape, murder, and JUDGEMENT!



I originally read this on a myspace bulliten and it had pics and stuff, but i couldnt figure out how to get them up, but its still a powerful message

 

Oh man, another 18 year old with all the answers. haha
No dude I think it's cool you're tackling the subject, I get what you're saying, so much labelization, cliche and tagging...
I think lennon put it best when he contrived the notion of bagism.

That thing about freedom of speech and bill of rights?
I made a simply acronym for it when contriving a bandname or at last a tag for which it relates to, and that's

Bereft
Individuals
Leading
Liberty

On
Fighting

Righteous
Individuals
Giving
Hatred
To
Society
(Copyrited) haha poor man style

It's the epitome of all of that social, personal and charater slanderizations that people do in more of a careless, outbursting and impulsive manner as opposed to taiming it to a personal study with which a discrete persuit in actually understanding the nature of what sets them off on such tangents, could muster.

I myself also think it's still an uneeded problem, But I also won't lie, when I say things do seem to get better as well.
They are issues people will tend to get over, as whole, when there is not simply amplitude of attention, yet designation of focus, to where the icy situations are occuring, alongside with more private studies that do actaully cover the broad range of basic to complex human interactions.
Sciences have long been pushing the borders of what others will not concern themselves with on such a level.

Yet thanks to further expansion, there is a conscience that grows in the existing psyche, and honestly all things take time. People will choose to think about such things as they determine, cuz the truth is, that when you take a personal moment with someone, and go through the motions.
Everything winds up stemming back to the basics, and the whole becomes strengthened for it.

What comes to mind thinking about that, is yet another foundaitons in the continuing flow of the life stream, that may act as a mechanism which begins to splice the cognizance of varying issues, and the levels to which each may decree...
Least this way there is another healthy medium existing where things are becomming more diversified, and further demanding.

What it takes is inner strength, livelihood is not a thing to neglect, that's all, and again that's why I say right on to keeping the subject remembered. Haha, all expression is art in my opinion.

 

I saw that on the myspazz.
I liked the Black Eyed Peas music in the background.. it weakens the message by adding just a touch of tackiness.

I don't think cliques can be officially blamed for suicide, eating disorders or violence. Most of the time they are deeply personal problems.

 

And when you register here and you can choose your political ideology why communist is'nt option?

 

If everything in society was right there would still be people committing suicide, getting depressed or anorexic, being bullied and find something to rebel or express themself differently then the mainstream in lame subcultures you won't like. That's what humans do. I hope you get used to it and value the way people choose to live and express themself. Not saying it isn't sad people suffer from depressions and stuff of course.

 

so basically, the media, government, everyone is just fucked.

when i was a model, they told me to loose 30 pounds or else i wouldnt be able to be in the buisiness for much longer. i was at fucking 120 pounds.. so that would make me at 90 or so. thats kind of insane if u ask me. i got half way there. im still at 105 pounds. i protested the fact that girls are NOT 90 FUCKING POUNDS. women, to me, are pretty much the most precious and beautiful things on the earth, no matter what size, color, whatever. its just fucked up to me to change something that is already perfect.

size is not an issue. hair color is not an issue. weight, appearance, clothes, not an issue. once people get past the fact that whats on the inside is what can REEALLY expand your mind. by judging people and hanging out with the people who seem like theyre all that and really have/know nothing to offer you is pretty much a shocker i have yet to figure out. also, people tend to group together with people who they share the same interests with, they sometimes look alike, this was a big problem with me growing up. i was never in a clique. i went for people for whats on the inside. and the day that people can realize that life is too short to be with people who have nothing to offer you, take your money, abuse you on the inside and out, is the day that the world will start to become a better place for everyone...

 

Wow, that was alot of emotion...
Well stated opinion, people tend to get things as it all progresses. Time is the key, and yes, more realization.
Peace and love, that is the best thing to offer. Doses...

 

There have always been cliques, and as Alegedly stated above, they are not to blame for all of society's ills. These are personal problems that we as human beings need to pay more attention to. Depression is a major factor in most of those problems, along with low self esteem, and of course, plain old ignorance.
For you parents out there, remember the CSN song, teach your children well. Know what they are doing and who they hang out with. But give them the freedom to make their own mistakes. Remember, we learned a lot from our mistakes. For you kids out there, pay attention to what the kids around you are doing. Exude tolerance and love. Do not shun anyone for being different. Rejoice in diversity. This is the key to overcoming hate, depression, and prejudice.
Quite looking for someone or something to blame, just work on fixing the problems.

so emos goths and cliques are whats wrong with society? umm no

 

did we say that?

 

It's what the OP said and it's complete nonsense. You may not like subcultures and cliques, but you're always in at least one yourself. Nothing wrong with it, as long as people understand that you're always more than a 'goth', 'metalhead' or a 'hippie'.

 

^^^^^^^^ exxaaaaaaactly. dude wow u nailed that.

 

I don't know why. My mind went black. But now the light has come and I want to love and live. Peace and love to you all.

 

right on. u can peace and love with me anytime. haha

 

ok so I'll take this one step further.

This started going off on a binge about massings of continually evolving perceptions, well...

I have given lots of thought to the idea about that which inspires decision, angst, faltering ignorance, nastalgia, and just about every other stem of, "gee I think I see it clearer now...I want more". Yikes!

uh yeah, for me it's never really been an affect like that, I've always been pretty sure of what I want out of life, but being around others who couldn't I could also relate to...

I know people don't like others stating in definate/dictation there own views, but I seriously love this stuff it is the marrow of life...

In everything I've been through seen done all that stuff, I honestly think that outletting is the greatest success to supporting all life. Mainstream, and Venue, there's is the open public side, and all the themes that branch out to base ideals of emotion, aestethic, theme...

It's like the act of responsibly extending towards each living personna where any and all are free to indulge, as they will, basic social networking, and the third side to it all is the "free spree" which is little more than, not apart of the original concept I'm stating. In a sense it's basically where we are at now, sort of, but ingrained in the present concious of the global populace, and as such begins to birth a true testiment to what everyone most likely ultimately feels at the general pique anyways.

We just happen to maintain a need to keep striving for it, and persoanlly, that's why I'll never stop loving life, there really is only so much that can be done, haha, ofcourse unless we unilaterally decide to "work" that one out as well, but that's just classic human hastiness. It'd be great if we could give that one a good cleaning.

 

Sorry for the late reply, but if there were people committing suicide, getting depressed and anorexic, then everything is not right in society... everything being right in society means just that: no one commiting suicide, or getting depressed or anerexic... these are deeply roooted social problems and they're not going away soon, ill give u that, but we can all we can to slow them down

Also its not that cliques are completly bad and cause all of societies problems, when when the people in cercain cliques decide to not accept ANYONE outside of that clique is when its bad.... i myself label myself as a hippie, but i have a lot of punk, emo, goth, friends, and a lot fo other freinds who sorta label themelves as part of cliques... but they accept me for who i am, and i accept them for who they are, im gonna reject someone just because theyre not a hippie or because there emo or punk or goth, or gansta.... we need to learn to look beyond these cliques and accept everyone... we need to learn to base our opinions of people on their personality and not juddge people by there outside appearence

Peace, Love, and Rock & Roll

 

Well man I can break it down like this for ya...

I don't need to go anorexic, I'm skinny as fuck, and that ain't no shit either... Naturally I don't tend towards making myself suffer by starvation, haha, ofcourse unless I feel like battling the internal desire which can be seen as both sin and weekness when one rather indulges paranoid dellusions of purety and sacrement haha...
Did that for a month straigth, rolled cigerettes and writing was my only diet...

Depression, I have had mine, and continue to let it linger on, so many things I CHOOSE to draw from it with my senses, and then my sensibility. It is a hella great feeling knowing I can outlast any period of depression since I know that what I have to come back to is the best in life, that I have no problem supporting, turning that wheel, then finding people down in the rut I never fully leave, and supporting them through the strife...

Just had to console one of my coworkers the other day, shortly after we had fun reeking havoc on the job
Because sometimes it's ok to be delightfully mad!

I've had my own moments of suicide, not in the traditional sense, rotting the insides intentionally is like 21st century suicide, it's got a vibe some can get loose to. Haha, which only happens to be a way to avoid the physical nonsense that kills, take the idea of the act right to the organs, and let them decide what a good idea that is...
Can get some sick, but that's ok too, sick is better than dead, ANYTIME. Death is still a bit harder to heal, unfortunately.

And about all the rest of that banter, don't abuse labels,
it looks like you are really dieing to dive into the worlds other people choose to inhabit as they do. It's not a bad thing to want the happier moments in life, and the bad shit to just go away already, tho, that takes a serious amount of effort, collaboration and insight, of that which I see everyday relly does just take the minds of many not few, in some circumstances, and vice versa in others.
So,

Simply decide carefully how to approach each subject, when what you do or say can have a significant effect on others.

 

Depression aren't often problems caused by society, it's a mental illness and can be triggered by anything. As you stated, your friends who can be put in a different lable accept you as you are. Lables and subcultures should make no difference indeed and it isn't the problem. Shortmindedness, lack of tolerance and acceptance is.

 

unk: The best way I'll put it for now, is that most people, consider themselves as integrated wholes, and that's a thing to work WITH in life, not AGAINST.
...I've also been working on keeping my replies short and sweet!

 

all the fingers does not look same in our hands .like wise all the humans are not same .some find themselves good in peace and love some find violence is good for them .they don't worry about us so y should we worry about them its one life keep it moving in our way
