Two other judges needed, please PM me if you're interested

So, the revolutionary zeal and topical apathy are both widely regarded by pretty much all of us as awesome. It's exactly for this reason that I am going to sponsor a contest in which posters will write a critique either comparing the two feelings or at least focusing on one but mentioning either.

Minimum word count: 1k words.

First prize: Subscription to a magazine of your choice - (NSFWCorp, whatever), a custom T-Shirt of my design, and frontpage publication
Second prize: custom T-Shirt of my design, and front page publication

Deadline is Sept 1.

Mods plz sticky.

yeah sure but that doesn't make your posting or even your existence some sort of cosmic salvation to be delivered upon the masses. i think you're missing the point

obviously posting stalin smileys on a forum doesnt really do much to advance the cause of socialism or w/e but i think "caring about things" is a prerequisite, no matter how immaterial or minor, for anything that would.

i have LONG said that Arabic writing r not real letters or words. if u look at it its really just a bunch of random scribble lines that anybody can do.
the way to test this is by when in Israel ask an Arab to read u a line written in “Arabic” say at a rail line stop in Jerusalem or just about any other sign. he will “translate” it and tell u what it says in either Hebrew or English. but note u will always c that there is always either English and/or Hebrew written above or below or somewhere sharing the same space as the scribbly lines! thats how they do it!
u want to c if i’m right? ok, find a sign in Israel and cover up the Hebrew and English. ask 10 different Arabs while they pass by what it says and u will get 10 different “translations”! i tried it!
the reason they r using a different part of the brain is because they r not reading they r imagining or thinking of beating their Jewish wives or what ever Arabs do when were not looking.

Would Martin Luther King Have Supported a Syrian Intervention?

But amid soaring casualties and allegations of chemical weapons use in Syria, would King support airstrikes against the Assad regime? Like Obama, King would in all likelihood have sympathized with the rebels working to unseat Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. But he would also have deplored their tactics. In King's day, the idea of humanitarian intervention had not yet taken hold, so it's difficult to evaluate how King would have responded to the use of nerve gas against civilians

how do you guys still care about things like this, or really anything

i don't mean that as an accusatory statement, i am actually asking. because i can't really process world events anymore, it's just static. the same things continually reoccur. what does it matter

thanks in advance


fuck you?

why are these personal attacks. what does this accomplish. the unending domination and murder of people by the current order is like a constant terrifying noise and i tune it out so that i can function in a sort of detached ok state.

what is the point of your care. what are you doing with it other than getting mad in a forum thread. like what if 5000 people get gassed tomorrow and 5000 every day after that for the next year. no one will care enough. nothing is going to change. it's all theater. I am surprised we even get to find these things out. do you think Bradley Manning actually did change his gender? do we even know if any of that's real? how do we really know? is everything false flag bullshit all the time? how does trying to tease the truth out help me function? I can't stop it and neither can you. I am going to move out to a farm one day and have some sheep and provide for my family and try to have a life without thinking about the constant disgusting shit that is done every day around the world. what else can you really do. how can I give a shit about every terrible thing that happens. it's all terrible. it's been terrible for a very long time. more people got murdered for nothing. I have to remain numb or it is just a constantly overwhelming scream-vomit of unintelligible horror. I can't even watch movies where suffering is depicted let alone come to real human terms with the pointless snuffing-out of thousands of lives in the most violent ways.

so fuck you too.

lol, like there are other options besides seeking a narcotic mental state, one of them is just stop being a bitch



good news, Syria is about to become a mental narcostate

Alex Jones loves her. YouTubers drool over her physical beauty. But there's also a faction who call her a misinformation agent, a mouthpiece for Assad and a government spy. So who is Syrian Girl?

As a burgeoning political and social media figure she has garnered nearly 1 million views on YouTube alone. Not to mention almost 11,000 followers on Faceook and about half that many on Twitter. Aside from her husky and deliberately labored speech, flavored with both Syrian and English (think England) affects, she is an ardent supporter of Syrian nationalism. That is, being no supporter of most existing world governments, a desire for Syria to remain autonomous from international influence.

When she appeared on the Australian television program "Insight" concerning the Syrian civil war, as viewed by Syrians living in that country, she was identified as a Sunni named Mimi Al-Laham. In her own words she's an Assad supporter insomuch as he's better than the Obama Regime backed alternative, the Muslim brotherhood, who are known al-Qaeda operatives and puppets of the New World Order. She's also for the reform process and surmises that an overthrow of Assad would lead to the destruction of Syria while gradual, democratically-inspired change would be a stabilizing force and the true will of her people.

A self-described member of the former bourgeois ruling-class that was deposed from power during the Bathist coup, she would like to run Syria herself one day. Her grandfather was in government and she believes that the only path for Syrian sovereignty is through diplomatic reform, believing that her country will become another Afghanistan if left to the desire of outside forces (NATO, Israel and the United States). A fact that has not evaded one of Syria's staunch enemies in Israel.

Outside of the media attention her personal life is a mystery. She is believed to be residing in Australia with her father.

War fever is exciting, thrilling even



No dictator, not even Stalin or Hitler, deserved a Tomahawk missile down his throat more than Bashar Assad.



Going to war against Mr. Assad cannot be justified merely as revenge, as sweet as that might be

Israeli Settlers Defy Stereotype Amid Peace Talks

BARKAN, West Bank (AP) — Micha Drori is living the Israeli dream: a house, a yard, a wife and three kids. The 42-year-old businessman has found an affordable alternative to Israel's booming real estate market in a quiet community he loves, with a commute of less than half an hour to his job near Tel Aviv.

What's the catch? He's a West Bank settler.



In contrast to the prevailing image of settlers as gun-toting religious zealots, the majority are in fact middle-of-the-road pragmatists seeking quality of life. Many shun the settler ideology and say they will uproot quietly, if needed, for the sake of peace.



The rest are "economic" settlers who take advantage of the benefits available to live a higher quality of life than they could have afforded in Israel proper. While these settlers tend to still hold hawkish political positions, they are not as hard-core over territorial compromise. Some, particularly those in and around Jerusalem, don't even realize they are settlers.





middle class businessmen so politically unaware they don't realize they're settlers: truly defying the stereotypes of settler ideology.

"If everyone behaves like them and settlements continue to expand, there will be no place for a Palestinian state, even if they are not ideological," he said.


pure ideology

just shows the frivolousness of ideology in comparison to the capitalist behemoth and consumerist stranglehold.

capitalism has within it the means of simultaneously incorporating yet nullifying seemingly all other phenomena.
