Why do we cosume?

[kidderowski]

I find it very hard to understand why people ridicule each other over the kind of consumption they take part in.

At school people seem to be accepting the shit they are told!

None of todays education tells the next generation of mindless consumers that poverty and shopping kills on a big scale.

Twenty four thousand people die each day to help the Global Economy stay on track and there would be no need if people would decide to use their brains before they shopped.

I aint shopped in a supermarket or used Sky or bought a shitty tabloid in years and if that means that I aint no fun!

Forget to eat and stop wasting food you dumb as fuck fuckers.

Slavery was the for-runner to the modern globalized economy. This time we do not have to provide shelter or food. Desperation is the fuel behind the economy. Thank God say the rich as they piss on everyone who has a sence of humanity

If retards stopped ridiculing each other into a sence of shame because they don't fit in, than maybe death ridden consumption might stop

Most will follow the herd, for fear or being the odd one out. Years of indoctrination, programming, thinking for oneself and individuality are not encouraged.

It's only later in life some will start to question why are things the way they are. And is there other/better ways of doing things.

There's enough to go round for everyone, it's just not divided equally, if we all had the same amount of money it may help.

The system is structured in such ways to benefit the Elite.

Fine rant for a first post.

In todays schools in the UK, the following subjects are promoted as 'education'.

1) It is a fact that global warming exists and is soley caused by man made carbon emissions.

2) Homosexuality is a good thing

3) So is multicultualism, and if you disagree with this you are an evil racist.

4) Iraq was invaded to topple Saddam Hussein because he was a nasty man. It was not because of weapons of mass destruction.

No wonder millions of young people grow up completely brainwashed.

Consumerism or materialism has been very destructive to this planet, the amount of waste and pollution involved has caused great environmental harm. A lot of people on this forum are global warming skeptics, sure it might be a scam but nonetheless it's teaching people to be more environmentally aware, and thanks to this global warming 'scam' we are getting cleaner ways of producing energy, though sadly more expensive energy.

2) Homosexuality is a good thing


What is wrong with being gay? You can't exactly just choose to be straight.

It might be enlightening for you to watch the documentary "THE CENTURY OF THE SELF". It tells the history of Edward Bernaise, who happened to be Sigmund Freud's nephew.
At the beginning of the 20th century, human beings were mainly producers. We as a whole, would use things until they were worn out. We didn't feel the need to replace an item until it was completely used up. Therefore (with the exception of the very wealthy)we would have considered it wasteful; almost sinful to buy an item that wasn't absolutely necessary to our survival.

Enter big business and advertisement. They approached Bernaise to find a way to appeal to our inner desires, and to manipulate us into "wanting" something as opposed to needing it.
When you watch this doc, make sure you view all three parts...the latter ones dealing with how our governments could convince us that "War is Good."

i could choose to be gay if i really wanted to


anyone can


i mean the option is already laid out there in front of you in our faces everyday all of our lives and promoted

for me though. common sense tells me. there is nothing fruitful from it. its like it adds nothing to humanity. homosexuality only consumes for itself pleasure. that's the truth. despite the bickering in your head to convince me otherwise.

it goes against nature. what nature intended.


if you tell me you don't have a choice in the matter. than something may be very wrong with you. because you believe you don't have a choice in the matter. you can pick any women from the many. any man from the many. you can choose the opposite sex. but not the same. to make that choice, means your not thinking at all. and in fact isn't a choice at all. because it is not an option. no matter what you tell yourself. even if you want a pig or a dog as a mate. nothing good is going to come from it because mating isn't made to work like that. feelings or no feelings involved at all. its not natural. why deny your nature. aren't you proud of what you are.

if your body is gifted with asexual type organs. you should rise above all of that and find the deeper meanings to life. because it all isn't just about the body, and satisfying its enticements. if we can't rise above it than we are no better than a rabid animal. now don't tell me we are just animals and have evolved. that is just silly talk, for silly minds, who want you to do silly things, and bow down to silly people.

sorry if this is to truth filled for you to consume

i find people who won't acknowledge simple truth, not capable of hearing the entire cake of it all. they only wish to take a piece here and another from there to build an unnatural pie of their own to consume to fill their bellies of empty void in circumstance they put themselves in.

my head's not empty. its full of strength. because the truth stands through muddy quicksand. no questions, only answers. and if i have a question, the answers in there somewhere within. no need to ask another, got discernment, two eyes, ears, and a brain in the middle, that lets me figure it all out, on my own.

...and why should`nt they?... we were all condition from birth to accept authority as truth...`get em` young`... and that same authority has condition us with debt!...as being an acceptable way of life!... `They` are very clever!... `They` worked all this out out a long time ago!... including the fact that those that wake up wont have the power to do anything about it!
