Joyce may have simply been prepared to look like an arsehole
You can bet your wooly socks he didnt see it like that. Oh No! He probably saw himself as a fearless fighter for Truth, Justice and the Key Way.
Perceptions are a funny thing,
when madness is rife in the world of pee-ape-pals.
They'll piss on anyone.
And playing nice in that world?
Yeah that'll work... -
Hard News: The crybaby philosopher, in reply to Jimmy D,
Which laws, specifically, are in question?
Umm ... none "specifically" AFAICT. Although Whytey has a go at the RMA and a few legal bodies. He just seems to be whining out loud , and being a "big picture" sort of joker. He needs a hat with bells on it.
Rich, sounds like I'll give the movie a swerve haha thanx

Hard News: The crybaby philosopher, in reply to Paul Campbell,
belief that Atlas Shrugged is not a work of fiction
He may have even been able to read it to the end! … god knows I couldn’t! others of Ayn’s tomes were more readable. I hear The Fountain Head is better literarily. I might just wait till the movie, or not.
I guess this thought could have be given light by anyone, independent of their circumstance, tho’ I’d guess it more likely to be aired by a particular kind/type of person. Who probably needs thought police (shiver) ’cause they seem incapable of policing their own thoughts and incapable of keeping mum.
But I s'ppose he's in the "political area". cough, cough.. -
Speaker: A true commitment, in reply to Isabel Hitchings,
If we want attitudinal change we need to start, at the beginning, with kids.
Adults can still screw it up tho' (while the kids are growing up) while thinking they are sound sooooo clever and intelligent and give the negatives to their words 'nary a thought.
Like this Ahole -
When dealing with an issue of deeply-rooted culture, seemingly small and insignificant actions are where the change starts.
Changing peoples minds is no insignificant thing, When this government sees people as mere troublesome insects. I apologise to the insect world. To quote William Blake
"Am not I
A fly like thee?
Or art not thou
A man like me?"Forgive his genderising

That the perpetrator is seen as someone who cannot be changed, and therefore the victim is always at fault.
This is rape culture. In centuries past, the perp/s would have been called a conqueror/s. Victim blaming is a crime. Thank you Katrina you are incredibly brave.

we were freed to just do what we wanted.
I Am Free and I Want. Ah these two miscreants, just cause trouble for prepubescent minds. Which is what most people possessed for decades leading up to the 1980's. And Randians were the most gullible, and childish in the worst sense of the word.
Will we ever grow up? ..... sigh..... -
Internet Party candidate Miriam Pierard
Good speech and blog post.
When NACT politicians speak now my mind wanders to this song -
As a society, we fall upon the criminal law far too often as a ‘solution’ to a societal issue, without asking
When did suicide get criminalised. OH Yes that right, by the religious, centuries ago.
So when are we going to stop production and sit down and work through ways which would fit us, all the other species on the planet, and the planet itself. To survive long term into the future.
Thats right! Never. So forward looking of us isnt it! -
our weird fudge of a system
Applies to a lot of "systems" now.
you have to game the system.
Most people's least favoured option.
Except of course..with exceptions...
thems in the systems.
