Anyone hear this CD

Wow....Danipunk....wow.

Personally, I'm not a big fan of America either. I am an American, but the way this country is going nowadays.....
Ever since 9/11 we have basically become ultra-power-trip egomaniacal self-righteouss bastards. People (not ALL people, but almost all the people in power both politically and corporately) in the country are in general greedy, shallow, prejudice, hypocritical, violent-prone, prudish, closed-minded, and as I said before, self-righteouss. I don't even want to live in this country when I'm an adult.

That is not to say that they are bad people. I don't hate anyone, no matter what their actions or beliefs, and no matter what their beliefs, I think they have the right to think, and to (non-violently) express that. That is freedom of speech and I strongly believe in that.

There's a quote, I don't know who said it, but it goes something like:
"I don't agree with what you say, but I would give my life for your right to say it."

I would give my life for that too, and that is the essence of America, of what America is SUPPOSED to be, but sadly, isn't anymore.

But what you said about 9/11 Danipunk:

When the Twin Towers fall in 11S, I drink a toast with my friends and make a big party with a big big joint.

That's just ignorant and does nothing to help the state the world is in. that only acts to spread hate. Those were civilians. They were people who had their own beliefs and no matter what they were, they didn't deserve to die just because of who they are.

That said, the same goes for Muslims. I can't stand it when people persecute Muslims for 9/11. That's not what Islam is about. That's not what any religion is about.

P.S. Farrenz, love the quote man. :twisted:

Not all Americans are capitialist power hungry pigs looking to rob the world blind.

Those people are known as Republicans.

Pretty gross generality, but yeah. So true, so true.

You should all read a little book (graphic novel, really) called Watchmen, and for that matter, V For Vendetta. In both of those there are many parallel themes to what is said in this forum.
