john lennon sucks as do the beatles,, you just dug up shit to try an justify yer actions an in the proccess reinterrated sumthin ive always said...
I just dont like getting jumped on for usin the term ******, folks need to get out of the glass dome they live in and see things are just the way they are......and real true hippie days werent as hip as many seem to think they were. As for justification......
i dont get the point of posting this.. but its a good song showing how women were (are?) mistreated and should be equal. .. i dont think he's meaning that women are niggers, but he's trying to point out why they needed to stand up and burn their bras! (haha.. ok, or have liberation)
the new tru hippie days aint all that neither,,that dont exscuse the fact,, take for example.. at the fall serf gatherin,,, some shit went down,, brother got beat pretty bad,, as he was runnin away,, the brother that beat him was yellin ****** ****** ******... we thought it was the brother in a camp gettin beat,, turned out it wernt.. fine you like the word,, you like usin it as a way to feel intellectually dominant,, but has it ever acoured to you that its known as derogatory towards black folk to 90% of the rest of america?? i know i know its all about you an what strokes yer ego yer right the rest of the world is wrong blah blah blah..
Is everytime I use the word ****** everyone jumps on the "im perfect and my life is lilly white wagon".....and all of a sudden im the bad guy for saying ******.........it just fucks me up......its a word, a term...no more no less.......but oh no not ole john lennon on the ******/female trip..... He should be banned from the old school hippie books. And his records should all be destroyed.
doesnt matter if they use it,, hell its dillis 2nd favorite word behind **** to call inanimate objects,, but that is a whole nuther context as to the way you use it..
well i dont think he was using it as "whats up ******?" or however you use it (i am hoping thats the way you use it, since you do use it). he was making a political statement. the civil rights movement was to go from there being "niggers" to their being blacks, who are equal. he was pointing out that its time to have the women move on to their equal status too... I really doubt you're using the word like that. and I really think the way he used it (though the word disgusts me) is still "hippie" cause of the message behind it. its an ugly offensive word, so why use it? do you also say "chink" and "cracker"?
Yep but my use of it comes from the word uncle cracker ( the singer) and the rest is a long long story. And actually the only times ive ever used the term ****** is when I had a gun to ones head or was ready to bash one.......cause you know, no ****** is going for some cracker calling them a straight out ******......and not do somthing about it.......but thats even a longer story.
My hair is getting alot more grey, but thats about it. And im not on the post office wall when I go mail stuff......clueless
you use ****** every 5th sentance of any macho conversation you have everyday.. you use ****** in the context that most kids use ,, well you use ****** way to much ,, an its always in reference to black folk,, unless someone calls you on it.. man yer so transparent its pathetic..
