    I deffinelty am not the smartest person but can deffinelty sniff out ******** when I see it. And I don’t no about anyone else but pretty much the main thing I’ve learnt from my 22 years is money is king and dreams are irrelevant if you haven’t made it. Even though I see people with modest jobs have managed to get a nice house and car and live well of I can’t help but think is the next 30 or more years of mortgage payments and depressing hours at that job you can’t stand. You even see some lazy bums getting paid more then working people just off benefits and your always told it’s OK to struggle it’s part of growing up and life your forget all of it when you make it. What the he’ll is making it ?? Working your whole life deep down feeling like you have wasted your life, to someday be able to live in a house you own and drive a nice car. Il admit I was as blinded by the latest gadgets and fashion and most people but now I just think what is going on. There is actually a small percentage of creepy old men and greedy ***** who have got everyone so distracted with material **** they don’t see the destruction going on. Even those who are aware of the clear divide that’s been made into the norm don’t care or think that it will be ok when they finally get rich **** everyone else. But seriously there are parts of the world where people sell themselves for a chance to eat or get money while a select few choose what summer home to visit this holiday. People so driven by greed or power they would kill or see suffering for money. What happens when someone like this feels like earth is over populated or a certain type of person shouldn’t exsist. If they can slaughter and Rob people blind now for oil and power what happens when they feel like playing god “saving” the planet. Everyone I know cannot put there phone down without withdrawal symptoms lol. If we are so easily distracted with shiny toys and ****** celebs and there stupid life’s,what’s to say there war games now a days aren’t preparation for something. I’ve got to belive that every human at one point felt ashamed at there life’s and the horror that happens as a result, I’ve even thought it and carried on because I don’t no any different. We know full well our leaders are corrupt war mongers who don’t give a **** but we convince ourselfs that it’s somehow ok because they are doing it for freedom and to kill “terrorist”. But they are just another organised gang and we happen to be on the side that’s better off so we count our blessings and forget about it. But when is enough going to be enough surely there is more to life then being rich and living like a king?? How is “freedom” worth innocent lives and just handing control over to a bunch of shrivelled up ***** who willingly disregard basic human nature. Like what sort of people willingly watch others suffer for there own profit and brainwash everyone into thinking this is acceptable. Even the pope live lavish like a god while preaching modesty and charity.I don’t understand, is life a test? To see if you are weak and evil enough to not care about all of this. Or if you will live life peacefully ignoring all this horror and live your life like a human should naturally live. I could go on and on I’m sure I’m going mad, but there has to be more to life. The only thing I can think of is life’s truly survival of the fittest and some are weaker then others. Which means no matter how much we all hope for a fair world it will never happen because there will always be pushovers and dominant people who don’t see life in the same way.or am I just blaming my ****** life on everything apart from myself lol who knows. But one thing I’m pretty certain about, is that people rich enough to own an uncountable amount of houses,cars,boats ect who willingly live like gods and claim they deserve it and have worked for it are top notch *****.why is it everyone eats up all this charity ******** and celeb fundraiser’s?  Always acting like angels throwing around money proving they are so out of touch from what a fair reality looks like. They all wear jewels worth enough to probbaly end world hunger lol. And after all this imaginary currency has been thrown around and they get there name mentioned with charity, it’s of to sip champs on the private jet to decide what home to fly to. The average person  obviously contributes to global warming if it’s even real but how the hell are we meant to save the planet by driving a prius or buying special bulbs? ? Everyday whether people like it or not earth is slowly destroyed day by day. And of course if everyone said no to oil and eating beef blah blah blah we would all be sunshine and rainbows. We only live as we are told to while people get rich quick and then those same people blame us for the mess and guilt trip us into feeling like we caused this mess and our money will fix it. If there is ever a fundraiser to donate money to the new rocket thats going to fly all these ******* out of here sign me up but until late then **** off with ya ****** bulbs I can’t see with.

    Like it or not, we live in a capitalist society. Money talks. Of course there is more to life than money, yet it controls and dominates our lives. I would suggest accepting this, and conforming to it or looking at alternatives to capitalist societies such as living on a Kibbutz in Israel, or in a tribe in the jungle.

    guest, I’m sure that could be put more succinctly.

    Divine, that is the statement of a man who has given up.

    Unfortunately, capitalist society won’t let us give up just like that.

    Again Scep, I didn’t quite get your comment. Are saying that the guest1994 has given up, or that I have given up?

    #1031926

    If it wasn’t for the few ‘lols’ you threw into that conversation, I’d have actually taken you seriously.

    You may be able to sniff out BS – but so can others, besides yourself.

    Dismissed.

    Sorry for the confusion, alfie.

    I meant that you have given up – that is, you’ve just accepted that we live in a capitalist society, and that there isn’t any realistic alternative. At least that’s how I read your post. I’m ready to admit that I may have misread it.

    You may be right, but capitalism won’t let us give up like that.

    Carousel (wonderful film, always has me in tears)

    Having visited jc a number of times in the alst few years, and having looked at a number of serious posts from a varied number of users,

    I have to admit that I often can’t tell the difference between b/s and people just shouting their mouths off.

    Not using paragraphs should be illegal.

    and the paragraphs need to conform to each step of  an argument.

     

    mind you, Kafka never used paragraphs.

    but that was because his writing reflected a dream-nightmare world.

     

    So maybe there’s no need for paragraphs in this drivel

    Yes I think you have misread it. I am in awe at how humanity has evolved to capitalist societies, and how they seem to be the most successful in terms of life expectancy. Maybe one of mankinds pinnacles. I think capitalist societies are a very good idea, and have my full approval, I’m grateful that I’ve always lived that way. I listed alternatives, kibbutzes and tribal life, another alternative would be communism :) So, I haven’t “given up” because I havent even started.

    Life expectancy is heavily related to capitalism, so is women’s rights. All the countries with the longest life expectancy, and best womens rights, are capitalist. Those countries that have the lowest life expectancies are the least capitalist. Thus, capitalism is a good thing. As of today, we know of no better alternative. Capitalism makes us live the longest, and is also the most female friendly.

    It seems clear that you have “given up” on alternatives to capitalism, and you just accept  it and conform to it. I embrace it and take great comfort from it.

    I 💔 Capitalism
