The older I get the more I find myself saying 'I really don't like politics' but I find myself having lots of opinions on it. So I guess that's redundant? I dunno. I think I'm more aware of them, hey I watch World News tonight at 5:30 every day with dinner. Which is another weird thing because I just yell at the lady the whole time saying shit like 'This isn't fucking world news. This is the Micheal Jackson trial, fuck him. How is THIS news?' I should make a post all about that but maybe next week. This fine day it's all about the Occupy Wall Street 'rallies'.
Now I'm probably more democrat than conservative but I always fucking try to look at both sides. I mean what's the fucking point of just jumping each other's beliefs just because they choose to be a donkey or an elephant? Fuck it, look at shit from a different perspective. If you don't know what that means, stop. Just fucking stop. Stop what? Stop fucking breathing.
So there are a zillion fucking people protesting wall street and how the big wigs (ya that's and old term when people used to wear wigs, now you know) how they are all crooks and should be arrested and shit, AND to make Merica' see that our government is corrupt and corporations rule it. Well no shit? This isn't a new fucking fad dick-lickers. I guess camping in different cities is the only way to get this shit across?
It's really fucking weird to me that they don't have a list of demands. What the fuck do they want, an apology? Do they want some people arrested? Do they want someone to hand everyone 100 thousand dollars? The news (where these people really want to get their voice heard) doesn't even know what the fuck they want. I thought to myself on the 13th day or some shit 'Why is the news not reporting on this shit? (yup it was world news, haha!). It dawned on me that they its hard to report on lame for 13 fucking days. I really don't get it, and there seems to be no where that really explains it well. Maybe they are just making a point, I dunno.
I'm willing to bet, like any insanely large group of people, that a good 50% of the people doing this shit don't know why the fuck they are there. Clueless even. Just like the WTO riots in Seattle, what a cluster fuck.
I just really ranted and didn't make any real points (like most of my posts) but seriously what do they want? I understand its a protest, a demonstration if you will, but you have to come up with something. Maybe you are simply saying 'stop it', I don't think that is going to work
Some people are prolly thinking 'How can you call yourself a democrat if you don't believe in this?' I've got an answer for you. It is because I'm not a fucking nut and I use my own brain. Whatever. Do your thing, I bet its fucking cold at night. Yeah, should have thought that through a bit more and protested in Summer dumb fucks.
I completely agree with you! Some protests are born as the result of boredom. And stupidity. Do they really thing Wall Street is going to shut down because the are pitching a hissy fit?
ReplyDeleteI avoid the news, and the real world in general at all costs. But I did try to figure out what this is about. They have (I think) a tumblr with people's stories. Things are effed up all over right now, and if it helps someone get through it by writing their story, or by reading someone else's, by all means I can support that. But I didn't get what the point was. What do the people in charge of the protests want to happen? And apparently I'm not the only one. Which is awesomesauce and I don't feel like such an idiot anymore. Sweet.
ReplyDeleteRandy, democracy works for those who show up. These 'dick-lickers' are showing up and saying "WTF? This isn't right." So what if they don't know how to fix it and don't have a list of demands? They're out there to say (if nothing else) that this has gone too far and they aren't going to take this bullshit anymore. Everyone else can go back to their reality tv, fast food and video games but thankfully there will be some people paying attention making sure we don't get fucked in the ass too hard by the long dick of corruption and corporate greed. The rest of you can just bite your pillows and keep taking it.
ReplyDeleteThey need to be protesting for a solution, with that many people involved they will be heard. crap they are being heard now but all they are doing is whining and complaining (that's how it comes across) Where as if they said this isn't right and here's a solution they would come across as people for a solution not people for a big wah fest.
