Pro-Global Warming Rally

[gran guerrero]

Communism doesn't work because it needs everyone's involvement. If some people don't cooperate you have to put them outside of the system. Capitalism is a way better system, because the people who don't want to take part aren't really missed. The fight against global warming is a lot like communism.
As one country you can plant as many trees if you want, while some other country just wastes recourses like it's no thing, you won't stop the process.

oh yeah because the poor aren't missed, they are just broken down to the persona of scum when it comes to standards of living. oh yeah and the middle class aren't missed, they just happen to do all the work while everyone stands to the side and makes snide comments. The rich might be missed because hell they just tell everyone what to do and make a shit load of money off of it. this is one great system indeed. especially when the system is based off of labor in foreign countries that pays shit to its workers which constitutes one step above slavery.

and people who complain that they won't get advantages if they lived in a communistic societ can go suck my nuts. Lets take the story of the doctor deserves more than a janitor. Doctors deserve more wah wah, last time i checked, my doctors do shit less work than nurses, and make way less appearances while makes a shit load of dying patients wait while the doctor can enjoy their fatness on freetime. and when they do make appearances and don't know anything, they will just prescribe some standard shit that won't do anything. At least a janitor cleans up our shit. If it wasn't for them we would be living in our own shit till we decided that we should live more healthier. people have immune systems for a reason, we don't need doctors that take soo much money from us to not do anything or next to nothing. don't get me wrong there are some great doctors out there, but i think more than half abuse the system, that leaves the nurses doing more work hence forth the middle class. fuk da rich, fuk da capitalistic society.

Pure capitalism sucks Gran, everyone knows that. Not everyone is going to be in the position to get ahead and contribute (or survive) in a capitalist society and that's why we do need social assistance. We also need to set standards for health care and make sure people aren't remortgaging their house for a broken leg. Things like that are important, this can't do attitude isn't what I expected from someone like Jerome.

What you and I think about global warming doesn't matter. Our opinion does not change the real physical world. Asking people to change their routine is useless, humans are creatures of habit. Short of a breakthrough we can do nothing in the long term because again when organized, humans are idiots. In the short term we can by switching to cleaner fuel sources. Not only environmentally does it make sense to but politically, energy independence is a great thing for so many reasons.

global warming having anyhing to do with us was made up by Margaret Thatcher, FACT.

how does global warming become a whine about capitalism by some terrrorist fuck?

Some people use any chance possible to voice their (uninformed) opinion, they feel that if their idealogy is criticized in any way it is a personal attack.

RE: Thinking caps

We could stop global warming by killing ourselves, too.

I love these forums because you can start a thread hoping everyone will get the joke or play along and get entirely serious answers and when you start a serious thread nothing but retarded sarcastic rarely funny replies.

Yes, it was a good joke and I completely see the irony in Cheryl's tour

[Vykromond]

This thread is seriously just fucking horrible. It started out bad with this:

My own personal view is that global warming is not an issue. I hear too much yak on both sides of the issue and seeing as I'm not a conservation biologist, it's not my place to blindly believe the government with their questionable evidence and it's not my place to say that global warming isn't happening whatsoever.

then got a little better with the picture because Jerome's girlfriend is pretty hot, then went back down into what I like to call the "mega-shitter" with this gem:

sarah silverman ftw, best comedian ever

(Editor's note: What the fuck is wrong with you)

and then just got worse from there. I just realised that the amount of bullshit in this thread is actually outside the scope of even being able to handle.

I'm glad you caught one of the key words....satirical. Play. Pretend. Joke. The point was to seem arrogant, stubborn and outspoken about a topic that we're all blissfully ignorant about (Mocking other protesters that frequent our school as well as poking fun at the irony and senselessness of the Stop Global Warming Concert Tour).

And I pay for school by being a commodity to my employer and by being an obedient daughter. Same difference, really. But thanks for editing that question out anyway :/

Thanks for feeling obliged to answer it. I deleted the question because I thought it would be better to not provoke a fight, I do not really know you, plus I have immense amount of respect for your boyfriend. I think to some extent we agree on some level that this tour can be seen as self righteous and hypocritical, although maybe this tour will spark change in the people that come out to it. I'm not mathematically inclined, and I have never claimed to be but what if this tour inspires 10,000 people to use energy efficient light bulbs or cut down on their energy usage? Can we then justify the use of four buses?

I'm sorry, just seems like kind of a retarded way to spend an afternoon.

I completely agree. Facetious said something to me awhile ago that really stuck with me "Cops, I realized about four years ago that I was never going to do or make any dramatic changes in the world". I thought about what he said and started thinking to myself, I truly and honestly believe that I will never stop Global Warming, Cure Aids, or solve any other problems of our time. I know for a fact that Sheryl Crow or even Bono wont solve these problems, and its foolish to think they will. I think that if people dedicate themselves to these issues on a large scale then you may see some differences, but for now the numbers aren't there and maybe a bit of public awareness wouldn't hurt.

Well, whoever said that capitalism sucks, you're damn right on that one.
