so its a month from the elections, and im sick of america, ppl are getting on my ass about not voting. but i dont care, this country has hit its peak, it has climaxed (granted, about 10 yrs ago) and now the slope is down hill. very soon the only cool place is gonna be nyc. so let me say this: fuck america, thats right, fuck america. it will never fix itself. i mean christ! either i wont be allowed to have a gun to defend myself or the gun ill have will be a M4 over in iraq, fuck this country, go canada! and for those who are all high and mighty about voting, lets say that voting is really the way presidents are elected (which it isnt, the corporations pick em) why bother? most of the ppl that are voting for obama are doing so because hes black (just being honest) and some ppl are voting for mcain because hes not, and the rest because they are republicans. even my best friend is being a prick about me not voting, and he is voting third party! wtf is wrong with all the dumb americans. keep paying attention to your fucking reality show you call the elections. im not playing. fuck america
im not voting.not worth wasteing my time.they all lie and tell us what they think we want to hear till they get elected and do the complete opposite.i remember one president that said "no new taxes"well they elected him and we got new taxes.and dont forget that our vote dont mean shit,the electoral college actually does the voting for us.they just have us vote to see who we like.then they vote on who they like. obama is not gonna get elected and if he does they will assasinate his black ass within a few months.same with hillary.they aint gonna let no woman be president either.for the bible thumpers out there remember where it says in the bible that "women should not be in a position of power"
classic, "if you dont like america then giiit out" i knew that was coming. and the answer is simple, george washington, ben franklin, andrew jackson, abe lincoln, ulysses grant, and alexander hamilton.
And thats the fucking truth... I live in canada but that doesnt change the fact that everythings still going to shit.. our housing market is royally fucked over and all americas economic problemes are going to take their toll on us eventually.. in the past we had rpoblemes but they were all black and white solutions in my opinion.. it was war and shit but it needed to be done it was for a good cause (see World War 2) and eventually we got through it but now the problemes run so deep and everything is so corrupt we need to radially change society if we want to prosper...
this is stupid. america has problems and ALWAYShas. the forefathers you mentioned were NO exception. do you have any idea how much controversy was spurred simply by this country's inception? i dont like the candidates. i'll say it. honestly, i wish ron paul would have been the republican nomination. not voting is your right, and i can't fault you for it. i don't believe anymore that obamas strongest suit is race. perhaps during the primaries, but at this point most people voting for obama are voting for an alternative to bush style policy. educate yourself. if you dislike america so much and are not willing to leave, then revolt. i'm waiting. i hear lots of complaint, but no revolution. where is it? wheres the change? so you wont at least TRY to change things by voting. neither will you take up arms and revolt? i suppose, like most people, your life is so valuable to you that revolution is an impossibility. again, i can't fault you for that. its common normal. but who are you trying to kid? what will you accomplish by doing nothing more than complaining? you say voting does nothing to create change. well, what are you doing instead, and how is it creating change?
believing there wasn't a shit ton of corruption in the past is flat out fallacy. read a fucking book. everyone has always looked out for THEIR interests.
Someone hates life today, instead of bitching about it on an internet forum why don't you take 7min and vote, or go start a ballot initiative, ect.
suppose this election is rigged. last two presidential elections, in my opinion, were not rigged, but WERE stolen. to me a flat out rigged election is not that far out there. but, this is all as "maybe" maybe the election is rigged. then your vote won't count maybe the election is not rigged. then your vote will count (insofar as it will help determine your state's dedication of electoral votes) either way, it takes a shot period of time to potentially make some kind of difference. do you have a better way? and if so, what? i'm not denying the possibility of a rigged election. i'm not saying voting will absolutely make a difference. i AM saying it wont hurt, and MAY help. so why not vote? what good reason is there? and if voting doesnt work, and you're fed up with the current system, then what do you intend to do to change the system or put in place a NEW system?
Nesta.....I've read a few of your posts today that have just made me grin from ear to ear. Lots of love for your ideas.
hmm nesta i think you missed my point, i wasnt saying anything about the founding fathers, i said that they were keeping me from leaving. but not them personally. think a bit: on what substance do we see those ppl i mentioned on a daily basis, this substance is need to do anything but breath these days, thats right ppl its MONEY!!! you know... USD's? $$? i cant get an apartment with IOU's now can i? was there corruption in the past? uh yes. no doubt there, hell the best president we ever had got assasinated by the CIA. but the past is the past right? hmm and how can i start a revolution without arms? and how can i buy arms without money? and dont even say to have a peaceful one, cuz that shit doesnt work, never has never will, and since we (as a country) put the military in the hands of the federal government, instead of the states, the militias of the past are worthless in comparison, also even if revolution began, we will be labeled as terrorists, and nothing good comes of that. and btw, who jerked off and gave the feds all the power? imo state law should override federal law (after all we are the united STATES, not just "america". america is a continent, not a country) and lets say that the election isnt rigged (it is) what do i have to choose from? obama and mccain are both corporate stooges, they are puppet ppl, dont you get it? there isnt that much different. and hey, i like to complain, after all its the american way
Normally I discourage voting and suchlike but here I would say do it, please. I know it's tactical voting and not doing it because you agree particularly with a candidate but seriously, if not for America then for the rest of the world's sake. America often fancies itself as 'the world' and its political goings on have repurcussions for a lot of people everywhere, no-one anywhere can handle any more Bushist vicious economic and foreign policy and yeah, the same pigs in big business are still in control and there'll still be fucked up policy, domestic and foreign but if anything do it because of Palin. She is one scary fucker. The fact that someone holding those views could actually get anywhere near being pres (which is a fair possibility, as McCain could quite easily die whilst in office seeing as he's a pensioner and all) is extremely worrying to other people.. Shit, our politics are by no means particularly progressive over here but she would not be welcome in any mainstream party and would be relegated to some nutcase minority party coming in somewhere behind the greens, socialists and the far right nationalists. Please do not let her get anywhere near the White House. The Republicans are not foreign policy people (it's in the name, really), they couldn't give two shits about the rest of the world, which is fine if they want, that's their thing, but their actions have repercussions that reach much further than the borders of the US and having someone that fucking dumb in such a position of power is an extremely frightening prospect for people everywhere. Obama's not particularly good, 'democracy' as we know it is a lie, we have no real power wherever we are, we have no real choice, money rules out at the end of the day but you're not going to change their system overnight. Having a black president is a step in the right direction in terms of progression and shifting attitudes, getting rid of that horrible closed mentality and is seriously a thousand times better than letting that fucking woman anywhere near power, she's insane, madder than Bush.. He's a puppet, she's downright fucking evil.. That's how I see it, my words shouldn't necessarily have any bearing on what you decide to do and I totally respect your right not to vote because their game is a shit lie but think about it. If you do decide not to vote at least go to the polling station and spoil your ballot as I have the last two elections here, write none of the above or something on it and draw a big cock Let 'em know what you think.. Peace!!
reverend i really respect you man, and i agree if palin becomes pres, the world will end. but she'll get assassinated like immediately if she does. im just not buying the game that i believed before hair grew on my balls. so the kkk will assassinate obama, and i will assassinate palin if it comes down to being a hero, then you can remember me lol
