		<description>[...] Last week&#8217;s blog was a fiery debate about politics, racism and the age old subject of musicians keeping their mouth shut and just sticking to music. As most of you know, I don&#8217;t adhere to the policy of musicians or artists keeping their mouths shut about politics whether they&#8217;re informed or not. I think people should be able to say what they want especially if they are given a platform to do so. [...]</description>

		<description>Not to mention I hammered that out so quickly I didn&#039;t even check my grammar, which of course was atrocious.

Though I was just reacting to his bigoted neocon bullshit, and it was out of frustration, it&#039;s kind of like a distortion of Poe&#039;s Law, someone like him could just be fucking with me and I wouldn&#039;t know it, and that realization forms a lot of intolerance toward that nonsense.</description>

		<description>Dan, the problem is that the same thing happens on both sides.  Just as the people you&#039;re referring to &quot;vomit their frustrations on the internet,&quot; Revrant is also speaking out of frustration.  And I do not mean that as an insult.  Just trying to bring home the point that more often than not, issues are entirely lost because both sides are too busy bickering.  Hell, I&#039;ve been guilty of the same thing many times.  Revrant can attest to that.  At this point though, I&#039;ve grown so tired of the fact that decisions that affect the world end up being made based on nothing but bullshit that I really can&#039;t stand either side.  No one seems to be able to put forth anything but the most near sighted solutions.  We, as a race, seem incapable of planning for the long run.  It&#039;s really pathetic.</description>

That was an brilliant reply.  You perorated you point as it should.  

There are people in this world who are spoon fed what they see on any corporate media based website or news show.  They swallow it down thinking that, all of the sudden, they are seasoned political analysists.  There are also some people who are so frustrated in their lives that they vomit their frustrations on the internet.  Instead of expressing their anger in an intellegent manner, they open up a rant with &quot;your&#039;re a fucking retard&quot;.  With that, all credibility is lost.  It&#039;s usually followed regurgitation what they&#039;ve been spoon fed on by the corporate media wrapped up in a paranoid rapper to forward their own half-assed point of view.  Which is usually the same shit over, and over, and over.  They are actually just trying to feed a ego that is starved in the real world.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve disproved that bullshit many times before, I&#039;ve expressed my thoughts intelligently before, and your thinking doesn&#039;t even begin, black, right? What&#039;s METAL, YEAH METAL, has to be MACHO, FUCK YEAH, maybe they&#039;re even leather.

True? Let me offer a rebuttal for your unbelievably idiocy.

Gook is a racist slur, you stupid fucking hick, it is to this day a racial insult, it has been used ad verbatim as the definitive racial slur for Asians in the area period. I always thought you referred to people as, you know, fucking &quot;people&quot; to facilitate the idea that they were, you know, not fucking &quot;things&quot;, huh, I suppose I was mistaken.

Gosh, I guess we&#039;re all just mistaken, what with the people screaming &quot;nigger&quot; &quot;kill him&quot; &quot;shoot him&quot; and other obviously racist slurs at McCain rallies that go completely without reprimanded from the staff or candidates. Yet people who chant &quot;louder&quot; at Palin are mistakenly called worthless anti-war protesters, I&#039;m sorry, I just thought a non-racist person wouldn&#039;t tolerate that kind of shit.

This coming from someone who&#039;d piss himself laughing at An American Carol and with a Vice President who has even less experience and is in fact involved in a scandal as we speak, and I guess it is socialist to want a better health system, though of course I guess nothing else in this country was based on a socialist system, was it, you uneducated douche? I love how people focus solely on his being a Junior Senator, I guess nearly eight fucking years as a State Legislator and all of that experience in law mean nothing. Though I guess it&#039;s impossible to respect a &quot;nigger&quot; eh? Eh? Calling people crackers and not getting punished, RACISM, INJUSTICE, HATE SPEAK, what horror we live in where people are called crackers without any response.

Oh, indeed, because the Democrats are to blame, not the Republican(until 2006) representatives who ran our country for a decade and a half, and the two fucking oil CEOs who have for eight, how dare they assume to try and fix their mess, they&#039;ll fail, that is assured. Oh damned be you say, socialist &quot;nigger lovers&quot; eh? Eh? How fucking dare they want an alternative to a broken, greedy system that is killing innocent people, how dare I not want my closest aunt&#039;s death last year to not befall another relative, how dare I not want my grandmother&#039;s near-death experience to repeat itself, how dare I not want my mother&#039;s to repeat itself, how dare I not want my own threatened health return, and how fucking dare I not want to see my grandfather lying on a bed after emergency surgery looking like a ghost because these greedy fucking insurance companies didn&#039;t want to do what we were fucking paying them to do.

I&#039;m a fucking rat bastard for that, I should go fucking kill myself with the Manic Street Preachers cover of Suicide is Painless playing in the background and rid the world of another decent fucking human being, fuck us, we shouldn&#039;t dare attempt to comprehend an alternative to our suffering.

What the fuck did you just outline? Exactly what Bush has done for eight years, though I suppose when you&#039;re a meatheaded fucking hick, if the tyrant lines up with YOUR views, well, that&#039;s just fucking peachy, isn&#039;t it? Damned be anyone change that, they&#039;d be tyrants against your narrow minded way of living, and damned be if they succeeded.

To take a note from lern, I&#039;ll be voting specifically against gun toting violent douchebag bigoted fucking dipshit neocons like yourself.

Now go back to listening to whatever the fuck constitutes truly extreme meatheaded, meaningless, hateful metal, and feel really damned good about being a huge dick who doesn&#039;t give a shit about anyone&#039;s well being and expects their bigotry to rule the morality of a country.

You go fucking do that.</description>

		<description>Rev - you&#039;re a fucking retard.  Who gives a fuck what you think?  No one.  You&#039;re nothing more than a pissant little follower sucking the teat of &quot;what&#039;s popular in culture&quot; and can&#039;t even express a thought more than a few words long or you start getting confused.  The extent of thinking you do for yourself probably ends after deciding what underwear to put on when you wake up in the morning.

I&#039;m a douche?  Good. I enjoy pissing people off, especially when they&#039;re wrong.  At least the shit I say is true, and there isn&#039;t a motherfucker on here who can rebut it, least of all you.  Go back to listening to Disturbed, or whatever the fuck else it is that passes for popular &quot;metal&quot; in pop culture now.

I still want to know how the fuck racism is ok sometimes, but not at others, specifically directed at Dallas&#039; comment about wanting people to show up at their concerts with &quot;Nigger Go Home&quot; signs.</description>

		<description>Dr J: I&#039;m 27

Dallas:  I understand that and it sounds like you understand what I was saying about the objectivity provided being outside of it.  I guess my issue is just that the bias on both sides is doing nothing but fucking things up.  And it&#039;s irritating when the bias on one side is allowed for one reason for another even though it&#039;s just as destructive.</description>

		<description>With the passing of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act, we are well on the path of a socialist government.  The paradigm less government has fallen due the collective greed of wall street, the administration, banks, and those who took on loans for homes that they could not afford.

This was only compounded by the passing of The Patriot Act.  These two bills give ultimate power to the government in both over the privacy of its people, and now the economic system that was left unattended to its own devices.  The Amercian public had no say on the issue.  The only voice that we have is a vote.  So use it.</description>

		<description>Lern2swim:
  Having a baby and talking about it are completely different things. Raising a kid is much different. The elation, the excitement, the nervousness of having a baby on the way pales in comparison to the idea of those feelings. Same thing with racist, bigoted comments toward certain types of people. Those certain people have a POV that is more based in truth than your idea of what it&#039;s like.  When parents get together and talk about their kids there is a substantial feeling of what it&#039;s like. As a non parent, you wouldn&#039;t get that connection. 

I&#039;m not saying your objectivity isn&#039;t healthy, but I am saying that the connections black people make with certain comments like &quot;that one&quot; are different than the connections a white person will. I don&#039;t think most white people are racist, but I do have a real idea of what it feels like to have to live with prejudice as common place being black. That sort of thing is ingrained in people culturally. 

I said what I said in anger, and I gave McCain more shit than he deserves and the blog got away from me. I admit that but the issue of bigotry underlying our society is still a strong one. The fact that people want to act like bigotry doesn&#039;t still affect our society is not a solid and realistic world view. Bigotry exists in all countries but in America it&#039;s culturally more poignant at this time. 

I feel bad for white culture right now because it&#039;s being taken over by all of the &#039;ghetto&#039;, ethnic BS that is touted out there. And white america is looked at as the enemy which is complete BS. So the road goes both ways and I&#039;m in no way inferring that white people are to blame. I love white people! I can walk on the same side of the street as them :)</description>

  Having a baby and talking about it are completely different things. Raising a kid is much different. The elation, the excitement, the nervousness of having a baby on the way pales in comparison to the idea of those feelings. Same thing with racist, bigoted comments toward certain types of people. Those certain people have a POV that is more based in truth than your idea of what it&#8217;s like.  When parents get together and talk about their kids there is a substantial feeling of what it&#8217;s like. As a non parent, you wouldn&#8217;t get that connection. </p>
<p>I&#8217;m not saying your objectivity isn&#8217;t healthy, but I am saying that the connections black people make with certain comments like &#8220;that one&#8221; are different than the connections a white person will. I don&#8217;t think most white people are racist, but I do have a real idea of what it feels like to have to live with prejudice as common place being black. That sort of thing is ingrained in people culturally. </p>

		<description>I have to disagree with you on the view that someone can&#039;t have a clear view of something without direct experience.  On the subject of children, even not having children myself, I can look at some kid acting like a little brat and state that the kid&#039;s parents aren&#039;t doing a good enough job.  Is it a nice thing to say?  No.  Would the parents give the &quot;you just don&#039;t understand&quot; explanation?  Probably.  Does that mean they&#039;re right that there isn&#039;t a problem and I just don&#039;t understand?  No.  

It&#039;s the same thing here.  I may be white, but I&#039;d argue that a black person who has experienced racism is even more biased when considering the subject than I would be.  It&#039;s just as much of a bias to find it in something where it doesn&#039;t actually exist as it is to say it doesn&#039;t exist at all.  Once again, the middle ground is where the truth lies but everyone wants to skirt the outer edges.

Sometimes experience is king.  But there&#039;s also something to be said for the clear view from the outside.</description>

		<description>@ &quot;Yes, I find it disheartening that McCain hates GOOKS. I understand it because of his experience but my point is, I don’t want someone like that in office.&quot;

They both suck.  I don&#039;t want a socialist who attended a racist church for 20 years and denies ever hearing anything racist while attending said church or an OLD socialist who refers to a different race as gooks for president.</description>

		<description>@Dallas:  Playing drums takes rhythm, so I just assumed your people would be good at it. 

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DON&#039;T GET SARCASM, THAT WAS A JOKE.

Hey Dallas, congratulations on the baby. I have two kids. They&#039;re totally awesome. Um, til they get to about 12. Then the teenage shit happens and they turn into assholes.  ;)</description>
