My last ever thread on here

Postby £3.73 » Mon May 03, 2010 11:24 am

If it looks like sh*t .......

and smells like sh*t .......

Why are normally fairly intelligent people switching to manual over-ride (Basil Fawlty mode) ... and trying to pretend everything is normal ..... when clearly it isn't ?

The 1st law of International Socialism (communism/ collectivism ... call it what you will) is to con the middle class into commiting suicide ... and all their little trinkets end up in the hand of the state.

It's a basic strategy, honed and perfected over the years, and it relies wholly on the middle class point blankly refusing to believe what their gut is telling them, and whistle louder to drown out all them alarm bells ...

The cameras are up everywhere .... there's no difference between any of the main political options .... religion is dying ..... pubs are dying, air travel is dying, the economy is dying ..... there are wars, rumours of wars, invisible enemies ....
the planet is dying, the next big disease is coming, acts of god are happening every other day .... the economy has crashed, the banks are bankrupt, politicians are all corrupt ....

And noone can do a thing about it !

But not one person on these boards, for whatever reason will admit to any of it .... content to pass comment on trivial nonsense .... indulge in fantasy economics about this and that !

WHY ?

To take down a building by controlled demolition you wire the main supports ... and boom ...

To take down society isn't different at all.

You take out the main supports

The Family,
Religion,
The Economy,
The Community,
Banks

etc etc

And every thing falls neatly in upon itself .....

sounds good to me. Maybe that way people would take responsibility for themselves rather than blaming everything that goes wrong in their lifes on their Family, Religion,Community, Banks & The Economy. :wink: :lol:

3.73. Your thread title. Does that mean you'll still contribute by posts? Or are you singing off so to speak?

Pete, a man would fight & die for his family, and perhaps his castle ... so you break his family unit, you take away his castle ... you de-masculinise him & take away his sense of purpose ... and now he won't fight.

You remove anything that gives hope & belief ... so you take away religion.

You destroy community spirit & isolate people.

You take ownership of banks to make sure noone can stash their cash, be it here or offshore ... think Iceland.

There's method in it's madness .....

Pound three seven three, I agree with you. You destroy or don't maintain the foundation of a building (society) and it crumbles sooner or later. I'm sure you will agree, Bill, that life, and the strength of community and human relationships and interaction on the whole are a whole lot different now than they were back in the middle century.

And immigration !

Don't start me on immigration !

You let immigration get out of control until people are howling about it !
Then you build a wall (by public demand) to keep the sneaky, benefit grabbing immigrants out !
(it is of critical importance at this juncture to make no mention whatsoever of the £8 billion worth of benefits that go unclaimed every year due to the increasing complexity of the benefit laws)

Walls are actually bi-directional :<>

They keep people in too :wink: (ask an East German)

No such things as East Germans, nowadays--that particular Wall came down in November 1989. I even have a few bits of it. :twisted: FFS??? and it was a lot bigger than that compartment in your brain. There ain't no wall ---it's only a perception....maaaaaaaaannnnnnnn :lol:

You and Bobbie the same person? I can't believe that the "pound three seven three" ref is a genuine post. Surrounded by a great big, walled garden, like Tron. Watch out for the right angles--they can be sharp :wink: :wink:

No, we are not the same person. I am a beautiful tall svelte blonde bombshell of an woman living in Texas and he is.. well.. three pound seven three. (okay, maybe i lied about the beautiful part... and maybe the tall part was a bit of a stretch.. .... okay okay okay.. i'm not a svelte blonde bombshell either! but I do live in texas and i am a woman.. sheesh.) :mrgreen:

My reference was to the fact that the wall that we helped tear down between East and West Germany has now moved.. it is now being built ironically between the US and Mexico.. Walls/fences are always being built, Mr. Rab Mac D. The question is, is it to keep "them" out or "us" in?
