Isn't this great?: "at a concert at the Hollywood bowl in July, Mar. Albarran- dressed in a tight fitting mod suit... asked audiences to idnationality: mexicans, preuvians, Salvadorians, Bolivians. Then, over the waves of partisan cheers, he announced that countries don't really exist; They are just illusions. When we started as a band, we talked about a need to find a national identity," he said. "Now I think that's stupidd, that it doesn't exist. We are trapped by those categories. It's like soccer fans who say 'i'm for Galaxy' or 'I'm for Chivas'. that's how the illusion begins...." People are the same all over. Cultures are all different. The *people* of Britain are not genetically superior to anyone else; they've just inherited and developed a superior culture[1]. Well, superior to that of the USA; which isn't at all hard. Limiting yourself by category is stupid; but recognising cultural influences isn't. Rowland. [1] Which is exactly what almost every large European nation thinks about itself as it happens, as well as plenty of the small ones. -- Remove the animal for email address: Sorry - the spam got to me http://www.mag-uk.org http://www.bmf.co.uk UK biker?

There's nothing to stop electoral districts being rigged - and they are. The US system's rotten in fashions that were dealt with in the UK electoral system in the 19th century. We *used* to have the same problems here, but we got rid of them. Time the USA advanced to the 19th century, I reckon. every country gets the government they deserve, ah reckin. Ah reckin you know **** about the world. No-one deserves Pol Pot or Hitler or Stalin running things. ah reckin you know **** about living under a dictatorship. the people who acquiesce to it deserve it. Riiight... So you justify slavery in the USA because the slaves acquiesced to being enslaved? You justify the genocide of the American `Indians' because they acquiesed to the dictatorship (it was from their point of view) that decided to destroy them? - well, they *did* acquiesce insofar as they failed to win the fight and were slaughtered; which is what happens to almost everyone who tries to stand up to a seriously oppressive regime such as was running the USA all through the 19th century. I really shouldn't be posting this, but some kinds of ignorance are too appalling to ignore. [snip] Best throw yourself on the compost heap. Do the roses some good. Maybe grow some onions in your decomposed remains.[1] I take it that you are aware that the only reason the American rebellion by armed and murderous terrorists (called `patriots' in the USA) against lawful authority succeeded was that the British empire was otherwise engaged? It's very rare for that kind of thing to succeed. Rowland. [1] The particular line I'm commenting on is very common amongst thick as pig**** Yanks with no education and no clue. I've learnt that such people are impervious to reality. I would like someone to explain *why* certain idiot Yanks come up with this lunatic idea, but I don't think anyone can. It's just a mental aberration. -- Remove the animal for email address: Sorry - the spam got to me http://www.mag-uk.org http://www.bmf.co.uk UK biker?

Quite the opposite of reality: you lot showed up for the tail end of the Great War in 1917, and were in part responsible for the Versailles settlement following its end that bankrupted Germany and brought about the Second World War. The USA has been involved in wars throughout its existence - it doesn't seem able to avoid them; whether it's losing to British Canadian forces in 1812 and having Washington DC burnt to the ground, or losing to itself in 1865 after shelling many of its own cities into oblivion and badly mistreating the blacks. Whatever was going on, getting involved in wars was what the USA did all through the 19th century - and okay, you lot did win the Spanish American war of 1898, but beating a clapped-out colonial power operating thousands of miles from home wasn't much to write home about. Nor is there any pride to be taken in winning the many genocidal military actions against American `Indians' such as the Seminole wars. Send in the cavalry and have them slaughter the women and children - how gallant! How brave! In the USA, after the Second World War, the UN was set up to put an end to further wars. It has failed. The USA has taken many actions allegedly to put a stop to conflict and failed. In recent decades, the USA has taken to starting wars - the invasions of Greneda and Iraq spring to mind. The USA is one of the worst war-mongers on the planet: you lot just can't seem to stop wanting to get involved in wars. In Europe, after the Second World War, the European Coal and Steel Community was set up to put an end to further wars in Europe. `Huh?' you ask - I shall explain: it was a cover for what was developed into what is now the European Union. Read the history for the full details. It has succeeded: EU member states *cannot* go to war against each other. It's impossible. Europe worked it out all on its own with no help at all from outsiders. We have succeeded in stopping wars: you lot have failed.

[snip] OK, I'll say it again. I support the idea of impeachment of Bush for his colossal failure in Iraq. I still think there are people out there with a serious case of BDS, and this hatred and obsession is generated not by genuine political dissent but by internal mental health problems. BDS? Whassat? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baby_Duck_Syndrome ?? Ah, no: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bush_Derangement_Syndrome I get it - they're spreading the idea that anyone complaining about Dubya has to be mad, and so can be ignored. Clever, I suppose, if the population is stupid enough to fall for crap like that. You seem to be pushing the idea. I dunno - the level of political debate that comes from the USA is usually quite scary. There never seems to be any rationality behind any of it, and most of it seems to be about discrediting your enemy rather than attempting to deal with any issues that they might have raised. No wonder the USA doesn't work properly. In other words, even if Bush is horrible, there is a large sub-section of the population out there that is still nuts, regardless of Bush. Not nuts - ignorant, blinkered, bigoted, incomprehending. It's the fault of the culture - the education system, the terribly dumbing-down of everything, the telly, oh! It's awful! Get your country *FIXED*! The USA is a brilliant idea - it's just broken. So fix it!!!! First thing: educate your population properly. Read Robert A. Heinlein's works if you won't take my word for it that US education has suffered a catastrophic decline since 1945. Second thing: get 'em properly informed. That means sorting out your television feeds. Why can't the USA run a broadcaster of the quality of the BBC, eh? Surely you lot can manage that much, eh? Just do it! Get your nation working as it *OUGHT* to! We'd all love to love America, you know - it's just a bit tricky at the moment. Fix the USA, and we will. John Hinkley's attempt on Reagan was not proof of the hatred the American people had of Reagan, it was proof that John Hinkley had serious mental problems. Reagan was a really big menace. Europeans didn't like him because of the increased threat of nuclear war that we were under when he was president - a factor that USAians seem not to care about at all[1]. It's not a sign of being mad to have had a go at him. Rowland. [1] To explain about Germans: in the event of WWIII, they wouldn't have merely had a few cities turned into rubble (which is something they knew about from the RAF's activities from 1939-1945 and wanted to avoid seeing again), but the entire /country/ (DDR and BRD[2]) would have been turned into glowing, humming, radioactive rubble. You want to know why they objected to US policy so much? That's why. [2] Apparently, this abbreviation counts as communist propaganda. Sod it, I don't care. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRD (I thought I'd check that I was using the correct German abbreviation, and I am - except that apparently, it wasn't liked). -- Remove the animal for email address: Sorry - the spam got to me http://www.mag-uk.org http://www.bmf.co.uk UK biker?
