Though I disagree with indiscriminate violence in real life, I'm not sure I disagree with the root cause analysis.

I'd love to hear others reactions and ideas on how these types of issues could be solved through non-violent means in today's society.

It really was killing me why I knew that guys face.


1. I think if it started out with 'I want to take the time to tell you what I have been brainwashed into thinking is in your best interest' it would have been more realistic.

2. Snowden smuggled the NSA data collection files to the Russian military with the help of Assange. He did not do us any favors, because the Russian military then turned around and used that technological weaponry to attack all of us, and our friends and families, getting them to believe the same lies that the Russians have been pushing for years with great effect.



Fuck both Snowden and Assange. If Snowden was looking out for us, he would have leaked it to our press and not smuggled it to foreign nations to use indiscriminately against us and their citizens. Anyone that thinks otherwise is most likely either brainwashed or does not have American's best interests in mind.

3. The US government is funded by the rich. Sure, but stupid as fuck because it is also funded by people like myself who are not rich at all.

And a good rule of thumb, anyone telling you what 'they' want and think are also full of shit and should not be immediately trusted as a reliable source.

4. "The people representing you are bought and paid for to keep you stupid". Again bullshit, sure there are people that are, Ron Paul comes to mind and the dumbing down of the education system to allow the religious folks something to get all fired up about. But the rest of the world needs our children to become as well educated as possible because for all of our futures. There is not some handout that you get as a professor to not teach actual facts and processes to learn new information because of 'the elite' told them to.

I stopped watching after that point.

Nice to meet you. Just because someone says something well (like the above video's paid actor) and it is all edgy with scary music, doesn't make it any more true than a really good xfiles episode.

--------------------------------------
Edit: watched the rest.

Gun control, Sure.

Im in for 100% healthcare, but he is blurring 'medicare for all' and universal healthcare. Obamacare was set up to cover 100% of the citizens in our nation, not using Medicare, but insurance companies that were/are forced to provide non inflated coverage (due to pre-conditions) and was so much more. But the Republicans have been obstructing so it can't get fixed while simultaneously throwing everything at the wall with lawsuits to try to get it torn apart and overturned ever since Obama's first 2 years of being able to get work for 100% of our nation done were cut short with the Tea Party propaganda in 2010.

Iraq I agree until it gets to 'the oil'. What oil?

Then with Obama:
-I don't think POTUS are supposed to have anything to do with criminal prosecutions, it is why it is so bad what Trump is doing getting all of his criminal conspirators off of their charges, going as far as actually putting targets on American jurors.

Also When Obama came into office he was handed a shit economy (like every other Democratic POTUS since the 70's) and by the time he and the Democratic party (thank you Nancy) fixed that, passed the most meaningful legislation on healthcare since before I was born (Something Clinton tried to do and failed in the 90s), and so much more in Obama's first 100 days as president, his 2 years were up and the Republicans trolled their way into winning the ability to shut everything down.
-Obama is a paid member of what 'club'? Because any 'club' that Obama would have been part of in the 70's was likely not as a member if he is inferring.

-Obama tried to shut down Guantanamo, and Republicans freaked out and used that as a platform to win those seats with the whole 'terrorists' nonsense.


-I didn't understand his rant about why Obama should be in jail.

-Drug prison problem, outside of his reason as to why they are kept open being because of someone corporate prisons paying off DC politicians, I would think it is more of a local issue of corruption. Our whole punishment system of 'justice' is pretty screwed atm and in need of some major thought and overhaul. Juvie is basically just a starter kit for turning troubled kids into monsters and ending the opportunities for the good kids that made a bad mistake.

But again, when and how could Obama and the Democrats have done to pass any legislation. The Republicans played obstructionists during Obama's first two years when he was trying his best to help our nation rebuild while not being able to appoint anyone until the Republicans trolled the Democrats so hard and they lowered the limits of appointing cabinet positions to 51 members (instead of 60), and as a price of having 6 years of steady economic growth +3 that Trump got to ride as well (the first 3 years of Trump's was worse than the last 3 years of Obama), the Republicans stuffed the Federal judge appointments with Trump's trolls.

... only 2 minutes to go...

-"'Rich' are making us dumber. Every war is about money and the stupid people must die because the elite."

It's like he had been listening to Trump.

'Kill the rich' and he goes full crazy troll for the last minute or so.

------

He is a good actor, hopefully as few potential domestic terrorists as possible fall for this crazy shit.

I don't watch you tube videos like that.

@hanimmal did and he gave a clear answer to what he thought. Basically calls the idea of Snowden and Assange being martyrs and victims, bullshit.

A single sniper bullet is what both of them deserve. Neither of them are legit whistleblowers.

Some people are always looking for a reason to be pissed off at society, they see a conspiracy in everything, though there is a certain amount of truth in that if you have money you're above the law both in America and Great Britain, but hey if you're in the club enjoy the perks I sure would.

I can't take anyone seriously that talks about hunting certain people or groups down and hanging them from the 1st tree, that's him wanting to be judge jury and executioner.

People are stupid. They think that any tree is good for hanging. I live in Ohio and there are a fuckload of trees, but sometimes it takes me a good hour to find a really good one.

I watched 52 seconds of that drek

That's 52 seconds that I could have been not watching it
You should really watch the rest - it's hilarious. Kudos to the OP, I appreciate it when they just right to the point and expose themselves as the agent provocateur or brain dead 16 year old that they are.

Surely you cannot ignore George Carlin. I mean, jumbo shrimp? WTF?
Okay, now you're talkin' 'bout George Carlin. WTF? Speak to me like I'm five, I'm not as sophisticated as you and I obviously cannot read between the lines. I'm a dinosaur by design and just don't get it. I'm no longer hip. I can talk about George Carlin, however.

I did not mean to appear to be making fun of you. I am making fun of the OP.
