Nothing really changes, has it? I still see the same uptight discussions about ideologies, whilst the status quo remains, the powerful laughing while we squabble about who does what and who knows more. I tried to read this forum as good as i can, as i know some dutch, since i've been living in Belgium for a couple of years now. It depresses me to see that the left wing has not yet learned from its mistakes. I'll show you : * Any of you realises that there's NO WOMAN around here o the forum? Did the question "why's that?" arise to some of you? I tell you : It's because men want to win, no matter if they're right or wrong. Kinda creepy for ideoligists, i know... While you guys are launching written assaults at each other, (some) women are having a life. * So you are sitting here behind your high-resolution-fully-coloured-fucking-capitalist monitor, showing off how smart you are because you (think you) know all these facts about history, about life, about Stalin, Marx, Mao, Trotski, Bakunin, Stirner, Malatesta, Engels, and fuck knows who else... Stop the bragging mate, and get on with your life. * Ideologically you are all brainwashed, no matter if you're an anarchist, a communist, ... and so on. And you are all so self-righteous. I would never ever go for any of you. * My neighbour is extreme right (or better : he votes Vlaams Blok - but that's extreme right, innit?). About ten years ago, i would've cursed him, called him a fucking fascist, because i thought like you guys did. Right now i just live my life and show respect. And guess what!!!Although we disagree on a load of topics, i can talk and discuss with him, and sometimes i get this feeling he starts to think different about things. A small success which i'd never achieve by mouthing him off... * Sorry Woody, but i don't like you at all, not because of any politically reason, but just because of the high-standard machismo, your megalomanic, self-righteous look-who-knows-better-attitude. You really think you are better, smarter, more eloquent, better informed than ALL THE REST, don't you? In a way, you are pathetic. But don't you mind. Grab another beer and shag your girlfriend. She'll be looking up in heavenly adoration as you are explaining her how you will change the course of history. *sigh* I'm sorry people, i'm going next door. My Vlaams Blok-neighbour needs a babysit. I guess talking to his six year old son might be a good thing to do. ˛Herm˛ PS. I thought the lyrics of this song might offer you something to think about. Unfortunately it's "anarchist". I'd wished it were just "human"... "Bloody Revolutions" by Crass originally recorded 1980 You talk about your revolution, well, that's fine But what are you going to be doing come the time? Are you going to be the big man with the tommy-gun? Will you talk of freedom when the blood begins to run? Well, freedom has no value if violence is the price Don't want your revolution, I want anarchy and peace Chorus: You talk of overthrowing power with violence as your tool You speak of liberation and when the people rule Well ain't it people rule right now, what differnce would there be? Just another set of bigots with their rifle-sights on me But what about those people who don't want your new restrictions? Those that disagree with you and have their own convictions? You say thay've got it wrong becuase they don't agree with you So when the revolution comes you'll have to run them through Yet you say that revolution will bring freedom for us all Well freedom just ain't freedom when your back's against the wall Chorus Will you indoctrinate the masses to serve your new regime? And simply do away with those whose views are too extreme? Transportation details could be left to British rail Where Zyklon B sucessed, North Sea Gas will fail It's just the same old story of man destroying man We've got to look for other answers to the problems of this land Chorus Vive la revolution, people of the world unite Stand up, men of courage, it's your job to fight It all seems very easy, this revolution game But when you start to really play thing won't be quite the same Your intellectual theories on how it's going to be Don't seem to take into account the true reality Cos the truth of what you're saying, as you sit there sipping beer Is pain and death and suffering, but of course you wouldn't care You're far too much of a man for that, if Mao did it so can you What's the fredom of us all agaist the suffering of a few? That's the kind of self-deception that killed ten million jews Just the same false logic that all powermongers use So don't think you can fool me wiht your political tricks Bovernment is government and all government is force Left of right, right or left, it takes the same old course Oppression and restriction, regulation, rule and law The seizure of that power is all your revolution's for You romanticise your heroes, quote from Marx and Mao Well their ideas of freedom are just oppression now Nothing's changed for all the death that their ideas created It's just the same fascistic games, but the rules aren't clearly stated Nothing's really different cos all government's the same They can call it freedom, but slavery is the game There's nothing that you offer but a dream of last years hero The truth of revolution, brother..................... is year zero
