Are you guys fuckin kidding ! this is the music creation section,
If you posively feel the need to discuss politics and ethics find yourself another forum or section!

You seam to be personally offended by this topic!? Maybe you like and support compartmentalization (which is utterly in contrast to the principles of the flag you're hiding behind but obviously that's not the true reason you're using it) but allow others to dissolve boundaries and discuss the world as it is... NOT compartmentalized but very entangled.
On the other hand... you can always keep your head stuck in your little compartment and choose to ignore threads like this one... It's called FREEDOM of choice. And be lucky to have that freedom... there's still a lot of people who don't have that luxury... you know what I'm talking about... don't you!?

I disagree just cause your a bigger and stronger nation doesn't make it right to go around the world picking on the smaller and less civilized nations, thats just wrong.
who are we to envade a nation for its resources?
Shitt america got plenty of that resource it just wants to hold its resources and rob & use other nations.
I love this country but everyday im less and less happy, due to the people running it... the houses are dropping in value jobs are getting scarce, and if you find one better hope is not minimum wage.
America talks about securing our borders but thats impossible to do when we have practiclly all of our troops scattered across the world now thats what I call Fucken idiots!
Obama is bullshit, mc cain bullshit um hillary clinton bullshit, just like last elections all the candidates sucked, money talks thats why these people make it that far candidates like ron paul would be great but lets face it he aint got the money and besides others in higher powers dont want to see him win so they will do what ever it takes for him to get no where...
theres plenty of stuff in youtube to chekout, very interesting stuff to watch is Zeitgeist, CFR, Blackwater, Federal reserve etc. you'll feel fucked but in a way glad to know alot of this stuff is going on behind the curtains...

For all the people who think ethics is important :
Consider the nature of laws.
Who creates and passes them? The people with power. that means that the needs of the people with power will be primarily represented by those laws, and only as a secondary consequence of having common needs with peasants will the laws benefit the peasants.
If u doods wanna claim ethics has improved human condition, fine, however it is only because the powerful classes deemed those ethics useful to themselves first. |

@ bukboy: I'm sorry to inform you but slavery and 3rd Reich had actually failed. Your colonial empire will fall also... it's just a matter of time. I just hope you'll save your head when that happens and maybe than you get the chance to be a peasant dude for a few generations. That would be nice

Im not advocating exploitation.

The irony though is that we are all exploiters here if we like it or not. No one is living on a farm here growing their own food and making their own clothing. Its easy to point to the rich and ask why does anyone need their own jet when people are starving in the world. Its much more tricky though to look at yourself and realize no one needs an expensive computer to make strange sounds, its no different than owning a jet. Its just a different level of magnitude. Anyone who can read this is pretty much in the same boat, we live off the backs of poor people in the world that are scrapeing to just survive. Pointing the finger at someone else when you engage in the very same activities and pretending you work towards some hippy nonsense is the height of hypocrisy. Everyone here has a life that resembles Dick Cheney's life alot closer than it resembles someone working 16 hour days just to get food. He just has more expensive toys than us. |

The most important part for me is that I enjoy what I'm doing and feel good about it. Someone may call it this or that but honestly it really is just a matter of opinion and what you personally are okay with. Many people are getting upset about some calling what you do something else, in all honesty it doesn't matter unless you think there is something wrong with it yourself.

Well this is a quite healthy attitude and clear thinking. Everything that upsets us comes from within. Nobody can insult or upset me if I don't have personal doubts on the subject. Since most of us engage in denial in order to maintain the certain perception it's quite easy to upset people.
|

I am a victim of my self sometimes too, I just try and maintain that nothing anybody can say or do is personal to me, though I'm not great at it to be honest, but I get better.

But what about making music for love

Love will only enable you to go without food for so long... 
|

Well... some of us eat to live... and I guess some live to eat. I'd rather live a short life doing the thing i love to do than live a long life doing what it takes to be able to eat. What's life really all about... eating or loving and having fun? Is it about who will have more time living or who will have better time living?
It's a kind of philosophical question for some people... I find it to be more practical than philosophical
|
|
So... I don't get it...
Are you seriously saying that we should die of starvation, make music until then, and be content about it too?
