    So I got to thinking today, how love...in any form...is anti-political. The government doesn't want us to love one another. They want us to compete. For what? Everything. Welcome to capitalism.

    Our government is unmerciful. Making the rich richer and the poor poorer at all costs. It's about status. WE are better than YOU. That's not what love is all about. Love is equality.

    Love is accepting everyone.Our president is racist; creating racist wars all over the world, supporting racist wars all over the world.

    Love is our most powerful anti-political forces humans can possibly have.

    Close your eyes and imagine a perfect world.

    Brotherhood. Unity. That's not what our government wants. They have a power over us as long as we are seperated...constantly fighting over who is right or wrong. Once we get past "right" and "wrong", we can begin to work together...loving one another...peacefully.

    Let's protest...together.

    Dancerannie, you sound so much like me in this thread. These random occurring thoughts about the world... everyone around me thinks I'm so weird for shit like this.

    Anyway, regarding your topic, I agree. I don't know if I'd say it's anti-political... some politics COULD be dealt with, in a way that supports love, it just never IS handled that way. And like you said, a capitalist government/economy ...makes that pretty difficult. In a capitalistic environment, it's everyone for themselves, not "share with your sista" and that can be really lame.

    But, you've gotta give big props to those who protest that everyday simply BY giving a little...whether it's helping someone cross the road, or donating to charity...etc.

    Although the government can be such a damper, some people man...some people just change that attitude for me. We'd be nowhere without those people.

    The best way to destroy any enemy ... is to make them your friend.

    If that does not work...then there are 9MM Hand Guns!

    That was vauge and didn't make any sense.

    Furthermore, if our governement were evil capitalist war mongerers, we'd need more soldiers and stock brokers right? The governments all about love. You think there evil jew war mongeres can't figure that out?

    If you want to protest, cut off you hair and join the monestary. God hates america.

    He sees a challenge. :rolleyes:

    Um, while I like loving people, I think you're going to have a hard time asking people to protest reality with love.

    Unless you're willing to accept the challenge of denying that competition is at the heart of human nature.

    I love you, Boss!!!
     
  18. the problem is an absence of objectivity....

    a holding of a brothers word above a strangers simply because he is your brother.....

    if we assesed every situation objectivly we wouldn't have to worry about these trivial things...

    Don't piss off the feminists questie!
     
  20. if every situation were assesed completly objectlivly we wouldn't need feminists.....

    pay people based upon their skills not on their connections, give jobs based upon compotency instead of just assuming experience in an unrelated field was a magic key....

    apply numbers to all....
