December 04 PolitricksObama, Clinton, Harper, Dion... politics kill me sometimes. Since Obama won the president elect, I've tried to tune out of politics yet of course if you live in Canada you can't help but hear talk about the "confidence vote" that's up in the air right now.
The problem with politics is the exact same problem with economics... no one has a fucking clue as to what they're doing. You've got a couple of years in office, barely enough time to get to know the ropes, then you've got literally dozens of advisors all of which have ulterior motives to the advice they give you, then you got corporations trying to buy or cash in their political favours and then you got the public whom you're supposed to serve but the public isn't just the public, it breaks into an economic class structure in which what's good for one class may mean death for another. Let's not forget foreign relations either which is always a brewing storm. Then if you're lucky you'll be able to max out your term and sway the country towards the goal you set only to have some other cock sucker take power and push the country in an entirely new direction. Even if your party is elected again, there are no promises to where the allegiance of the new leader lies... so what I'm really trying to say is it's all politricks. November 26 Pure GibberishThis air conditioned life has me gasping for some real conversation. I thought as you grew older, your conversations would get better in a way. As a child conversations aren't enlightening in any way. As teenagers conversations end up becoming gossip or angst with little or no value coming from it. Now I've had plenty of good conversations before but it takes some direction to get there.
When we were growing up, I think we all watched our parents read the newspaper so the question is why?
When does one come to the conclusion that current worldly events are worth reading? does it come with age or a certain mental 'click'?
Does reading the paper make you an 'Adult' or does becoming an 'adult' mean reading the paper?
Once you start reading the paper, does one find it important or is it just water cooler chatter?
For me, I'd say tragedy came early. I came from a small town... no, average town with little to do.
when I first went to college I thought I'd be able to find a small group of enlightened people to talk to and discuss worldly issues. Now only did I NOT find these people, the college was located in an even smaller town with even less to do than my average town. With literally no mental stimulation I walked the line of insanity and boredom.
What can I say? I'm an elitist prick.
After dropping outl, spiralling into a drug binge and not giving a fuck about anything or anyone I found myself searching for meaning, trying to re-evaluate my entire life, calculating the choices that had led me to this inevitable fall of sorts.
That's when I realized, "Someone would love to have my first world problems" the shit I was tied up on were meaningless in a sense compared to the greater picture. Up until that point I was just following the path society had laid out, go to school, graduate, go to college, find a girl, get a job, get a place, have kids, retire, die.
Needless to say people called me a fool for dropping out, telling me I'd have no future without a diploma/degree. To this day I have no furthur education past highschool. Do people still call me a failure? of course but do I call myself a failure? hell no. I call myself an intellectual, a writer, a philosopher, metaphysician, a human and a hundred other things but failure is not one of them. I've become both student and teacher, I've learned more and read more books in the past 3 years than I have in the last 5 years of school. Now i'm not saying school is useless, I'm just saying school isn't the only path. I turn to Kierkegaard and his 'ignoring the self is the only sin of the self' but even simpler Plato,
"The uneducated have no single aim in life to which their actions, public or private are to be directed; the intellectuals will take no practical action of their own accord, fancying themselves to be out of this world on some kind of earthly paradise."
In a sense we all live in Plato's cave, tied to illusion. Edward Bernay's really did a number on the average man, from the "american worker" overnight to the "american consumer". The sad thing is everyone has their own idea of what's really important in their life from money to family to luxury to love... it's all the same rat race. Not everyone dreams of world peace, ending hunger and disease or agrarian reform yet if they did think of these things than perhaps the idea of money, family, luxury, love and everything else would not matter as much or perhaps they'd become easier to attain for everyone. When one thinks of their life it's exactly that... THEIR life. Things like equality and phrases like "all men are created equal" don't even enter their minds. Some even have the audacity to believe "Greed is good" and depending on the context it can be. Greed for love and knowledge for example where as greed for power and money is evil, not totally evil but perhaps just misdirected.
Unfortunetly in this superficial materialistic world the latter rules the former. I've come to a point in my life of profound realization far beyond my years, at this rate I'll be having my mid life crisis befor eI'm 30. This brings me back to Plato. The uneducated have no single aim in which their actions are directed except for survival, they hold strong to their dreams to pull them through their daily dull routine. All they want is to live through this ugly world in hopes that they're one step closer to their dream. I could fit into this catagory but I don't.
The intellectuals take no practical action of their own accord fancying themselves to be out of this world. That's where I fit. As much as I care I rarely act because in a way I feel it's beneath me. I see all the problems with the world and I want to do something but at the same time I'm over encumbered by philosophical ideals beyond this world which brings us back to Kierkegaard.
'We exist as either one of two forms. infinite and finite. we must shed our finite form tied to external influences and vices to reveal our true infinite nature in which our subjective truths are all that matters. yes, i have mentioned this all before but I thought you all needed a reminder.
The end all and be all of these, of my philosophical endeavours must lie with Kierkegaard and my dear old friend, Nietzsche. Once we realize that 'ignoring the self is the only sin of the self' only then can we ever come close to becoming Nietzsche's superman.
"overcome, you higher men, the petty vices, the petty prudences, the sand-grain discretion, the ant-swarm insanity, miserable ease, the happiness of the greatest number and rather despair than submit" November 15 Deadly habitsDeadly habits, you know everyone has them. We all pray for the best outcome but most people will never know what some people face. They can be a number of things, some people do ugly things, excessive behaviour, drugs, alcohol, hell anything can turn into a deadly habit.
Sometimes it's something we can control and other times not. The worst part is some people will never know which makes change or help near impossible, aside from like a full blown intervention which is rare.
enough of this shit though, we'll get to my deadly habits.
first cigarettes, then marijuana, then alcohol, then other drugs, then what can only be described by the mainstream as "anti-social" behaviour. the first four will put my into an early grave, the last will put me into jail or atleast community service. the deal with deadly habits is once you recognize them, you have the ability to change them if you so desire. Most gain a kind of gratification from them so they don't change and it's not like you can just stop cold turkey, you need something to fill the void left behind. the most important thing is the reason for change.
Real change only occurs when the reason for change is one you come to on your own terms not anyone elses. of course without carefully examining your life, you'll never reach the right reason. November 12 what?It was just Rememberance day so it seems like the appropriate time to reflect on this so called life. Many people don't take the time to examine their life or only do so once in a blue moon. I on the other hand over examine my life in spades.
First thing to get off my chest, Congrats to Obama. We've just witnessed what could be the greatest turning point in American history aside from the Civil war or the passing of the Federal Reserve Act. Anyways there's going to be much speculation ahead so keep your ear to the ground.
Another year has almost passed so what have I learned, what have I done, what still needs to be done? Am I still the same person I was a year ago? These are only a few of the philosophical issues which plague my mind. What of love? happiness? security? Am I still having fun in this life? Have I become a social outcast of sorts? Do I even care what others think? Am I using my talents and abilities or are they just wasting away? Will I... will WE ever get out of this rat race?
I feel too old for this body, too withered by this existence. I guess the scariest thing about this life, this path is the looming feeling of failure mixed with emotional and economic instability.
It's as if I've come to the fork in the road. One way goes left the other goes right but instead I continue forward through the trees, unable to see the real beauty that surrounds me. In the past year my social life has become non-existance. I haven't really met or done anything outside of work. Most of the things I do, I do on my own either because they're solo activities like reading or writing or because no one else has any interest what so ever in the things I do. It's all due to a mix of working nights and hating people in general, it takes a lot to impress me. I think back to highschool when it was easy to get a rep, hell it was easy to get anything back then.
The last year had a few milestones but all in all I feel my life has become stagnant for the most part, like I can see myself locked into this pattern for years and years to come... that might scare me the most. I can't quite put my finger on it but I know I'm missing something constantly overlooked. I'm just at the edge right now, ready to fall yet still holding on. Really though I feel as if I suffer from "Caulfield" syndrome, where one thinks everyone else is phony and in many ways, it's not too far from the truth. It's a superficial life for the most part and that might be what's killing us the most. Superficialness leads to materialism which breeds greedy which gives birth to envy. I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm just bored.
"My mind rebels at stagnation. Give me problems, give me work, give me the most abstruse cryptogram, or the most intricate analysis, and I am in my own proper atmosphere. I can dispense then with artificial stimulants. But I abhor the dull routine of existence. I crave for mental exaltation."
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, The Sign of Four, 1890 November 01 People are strange, when your a strangerSo here we go again, time just keeps on ticking. Nov.1/2008. Shiiiiit, year's almost over again.
I haven't been writing much here anyways, I've been heavy on script writing as of late but this place servers as a great way to get things off your chest.... put things into perspective and it's all about perspective.
So this life is as strange as can get, well it'd be stranger if zombies were around but that's besides the point. If you haven't figured I'm just shooting the breeze.
I was asked a question, "Is there such thing as cold?" and I obviously have to say, "yes" the reply is "No, there isn't such a thing as cold only an absence of heat"
I pause and I see the logic but know it's flawed logic. Of course there's such a thing as cold. There must be. For everything that exists there is an opposite. life, death, good, evil, love, hate, up, down, cold, hot, black, white. Everything must have an opposite... it's practically a rule of metaphysics.
People. I guess I got something to say about people now. It's odd how seeing some people from your past can bring about a feeling of dread. Sometimes I imagine of seeing someone I know somewhere and how excited I'd be to talk to them other times I imagine people I don't want to see and then end up seeing then not knowing what to do about them. "Did they see me?" "what's his name again?" "don't make eye contact, keep walking away" shit like that.
So what happens when people are no longer the people you remember or when the person is no longer the person you remember?
How much can a person change physically? how much can a person change mentally? Is there a difference between the two? Is the difference more than obvious?
what is change? Can change be guaged? Is change permanent? It's all surface and depth, surface and depth.
physical change is surface, mere appearance, a pale reflection of reality. mental change is depth, deceptive, unbeknown to the average looker. Anyone call look at someone they haven't seen in 5 years and know they've gained or lost 100 pounds or dyed their hair but you can't tell anything mentally about a person until you sit and talk to them. Although talk will not always provide the answers one seeks, talk is cheap and without asking the right questions one will never get the right answers.
The relationships we have with people are odd. Some people deserve more attention than others and some people command attention more than others. How strange how some things or even just a smell can remind you of someone. How certain people you can't pull out of your mind for the life of you. How sometimes you feel like calling someone just to hear their voice but then don't call them or do. How sometimes we alienate the ones we love for whatever the reasons be them selfish or not. The worst thing about people is their inability to change or their WANT for self change but their inability to will those changes.
Now those changes are both physical and mental and it seems only after extensive philosophical debate can one truely know how or what to change. The catch is after enough philosophical debate, you realize it's not about you, you gain perspective and again of course it's all about perspective. Then you become content with your life, ignore the bullshit. You know what you want, you know what you need, and you find out who you really are. Could I be more vague or cryptic? yes I could but that wouldn't help. Sometimes you just have to shoot the breeze awhile. It's the only way to escape that which is phony... which is just about everything. hahahaha!
Plato remarks that the descriptions that we give objects in our world are usually in some way relative to the context of presentation and he passes from this to the conclusion that reality consists of a world of eternal and unchanging entities, of which the world we know is merely a pale reflection.
So what's Plato getting at? Everything that we see and describe are relative to the context in which they are seen or described right? I think... but then he goes on to say everything we know is merely a pale reflection... I guess Plato was a pessimist? You know I've thought about what Plato said and I've over thought it completly. The phrase no longer makes sense to me, that's how much I've thought about it, that seems to be how much I think about everything now a days. Thinking of the philosophers of old helps put things into perspective, along with the new age philosophers after all this world just keeps getting more complicated than ever.
I just need a stiff drink... then maybe i'll discover the secrets of the universe floating in my drink.
October 22 A spotless mindHere's a little bit of techno news, Ever seen "Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind"? It's my favourite V-day movie.
October 16 Got time to Kill?October 15 Total fucking sell outIt was that time again to cast our votes and take part in the "democratic" process.
I had been thinking hard this year on who to vote for and the biggest issue facing me was what kind of Canada do I want.
Now in my opinion, the most ideal thing that could happen after this election is a minority liberal government, packed with conservatives, a handful of NDP, 2 green and an independant, but that's just wishful thinking. What'll actually happen is it'll be some kind of minority government between the libs and the cons mixed with NDP maybe a bloc or two, no green and maybe 1 independant if they're lucky.
The fact is Harper needed to be taken down and out.
Now I normally vote for the green every since the liberals fucked us and the whole Gomery report and they still haven't won back my trust.
But in all reality the only way to ensure a minority government without Harper is to vote for the only other party that stands a chance which happens to be liberal... but wait, I can't trust the liberals! Now I could vote Green but that doesn't help at all to bring down Harper, it only helps my cause of backing the Green.
So we come to this problem. A strategic vote or one for the cause.
Now coming up to today I was under the impressiong that I was going to vote green no matter what. Fuck it, I guess I can live with a minority liberal or conservative gov. I'm also now in a new riding and I really wasn't aware of it until a day or two ago. I was under the impression that I was going back to where my parents live to cast my vote in that riding.... wrong! I ended up in the York Centre riding and was then faced with voting for some canidates I was not familiar with. Now I knew what the parties stood for but it's more than just about parties, it's also about the characters.
Again I was under the impression of voting Green but as soon as I saw the ballot and his name.... well.... I had to... I feel like a total fucking sell out.
So there I was ready to put a big check beside the green when I read his name and obviously growing up in Canada, I knew the name well. Ken Dryden.
well fuck me sideways, how could I not vote for a guy who has 6 stanley cups? and I know what you're thinking "How could I vote for a guy just because he played hockey?" and it's not that he just played hockey but he fucking played in the "summit series" the fucking "'72 summit series!" that's heavy in the streets.
and to be fair... he does have some points in his campaign I do agree with, in fact many points... all be it I wasn't aware of them at the time while voting but none the less, he's a good canidate and I'd be proud to have him represent my riding.... And yes, I do feel bad not voting Green like a jew who just ate pork on Yom Kippur October 10 Banksy opens bizarre 'pet shop'October 03 To be young again...Boy, 7, goes on killing spree in zoo, feeding reptiles to crocodilekids get away with everything.... it's not fair... September 30 Nuit BlancheI'm hype about Nuit Blanche this year, I'm hoping it'll be as good as last year and I'm sure it will be.
Sunset to Sunrise
The only question left to ask is.. Who's coming with me?
">
Sleep is overrated September 26 Bored stiffI've benn pretty bored with the new lately, it's all the same shit different day. The super collider is out of commission until 2009.. bummer, problem with the magnets or something... So I've turned my attention to the more wonderfully natural side of things...
Ever wonder what a squids tenticles look like up mega MEGA close?
If you don't think that's cool then nothing is. September 20 Goodness and... stuff and... all around kick ass things!Yesterday I woke up at 2pm... I later went to bed that night...errr...morning at 6am....
From Thursday at 2pm to friday 6am I ate a total of just a little over 5000 calories... I almost threw up I think... then again maybe it was just gas or something. Anyways I didn't throw up or anything but I felt real heavy, like I had just ate a couple of bricks.
Funny tho, this whole time, this whole week I've been trying to put on weight yet I lack the most important thing... a scale... lol.
The news these days are so.... blah. I hope wall street tumbles, I hope people start jumping out windows, I hope the economy goes to shit, and then I hope we finally get rid of this fucking system we call capitalism. What to change to? I don't know, I'm no economist but anything has got to be better than this shit.
How many more banks and investment firms will go down before the years end? I'm thinking 2 more... maybe 3. Should be fun to see how it plays out. I wonder what Milton Friedman might say in the face of such an economic downfall?
Anyways moving on,
DJ Premier vs DJ Pete Rock!!
say what!!!!
For all the hip hop heads out there, you have to know bout this bad ass ma fucking show coming up at Circa this sunday.
Two of the greatest DJs of all time!?!?!
Premo is my fav DJ so you know I'll be there!
Next, Today gas was 1.13, I filled up. Suckers yesterday were being hit for 1.21 or so. It's so funny how people flip over gas. To be honest it doesn't matter to me, 5, 7, 10 more cents for a litre? big deal. Obviously it adds up with a fucking 75L tank but do you really need to driver that hummer? I know it's Canada but still! You're nuts! How is it that oil is over $100 a barrel yet the price per litre is lower than like the last few months, years even? If someone could explain the economics behind oil prices for me please do so... To be honest doesn't OPEC just get to do whatever they want? AND didn't we invade Iraq to get cheaper oil in the first place, oh no wait we were looking for weapons of mass destruction... that we never found.... unless you count oil... Just wait my friends.... better start buying stock in water cause it's gonna be making a big come up sooner than later. Trust me... I know... Water is going to be the most valuable resource in the world soon.... There's been a crazy rash of shootings in the Greater Toronto Area recently... that's what happens when you force kids to go back to school lol. No seriously, something should be done... I mean when I was in school no body got shot, you just got the shit kicked out of you. that's how you learned to become a... dare I say man? no, that's how you learn to take a shit kicking which would hopefully help you in developing into a reasonable adult who knows the pain and humiliation of having the shit kicked out of you. If you just roll up and cap someone you don't learn shit, it's like playing a video game, pull trigger, pull trigger. You're so not involved in the action that's happening. There's something about fists hitting skull, bone on bone action that's in so many ways is more satisfying that shooting... altho I do admire the way of the gun.... after all that's no joke either but really a gun is just for ego... like the man who buys a $100,000 car because he has a small penis. Them kids have got to grow the fuck up and learn to settle their disputes with either words or a one time fist fight like kids back in the day used to do with some bloody honor and respect. Damn punk asses.... For those of us who are trying to follow the Presidential election without all the fucking bullshit media hype and trash talk, here's an interesting little bit of comparative information. Where The Presidential Candidates Stand On 22 Issues And lastly another story I've been following and patiently awaiting... actully two things. One in the immediate future and the other is still like a year away. I will start with the latter. Alan Moore's Watchmen. I've been waiting patiently for some time now and have seen the preview a couple of times and have read the novel more than a couple of times and I'm still wondering if the movie will do the book justice and I hope it does but what does the Alan Moore have to say about it? “I find film in its modern form to be quite bullying,” Moore tells Geoff Boucher. “It spoon-feeds us, which has the effect of watering down our collective cultural imagination. It is as if we are freshly hatched birds looking up with our mouths open waiting for Hollywood to feed us more regurgitated worms. The Watchmen film sounds like more regurgitated worms. I, for one, am sick of worms. Can’t we get something else? Perhaps some takeout? Even Chinese worms would be a nice change.” I have a feeling he's right. No movie adaptation has ever been able to match the original story it was based off. From every super hero movie, to lord of the rings all the way to Jarrasic Park and more. It is just a rehash of something that should most likely stay in the pages of Moore's wonderful world. Do yourself a favour and buy the watchmen and read the fucking ink off the bloody thing! But more importantly and immediatly.... EVERY ONES FAVOURITE "B" MOVIE ACTOR IS BACK!!!! NO! not Christopher Mcdonald but The one and only, give it up for Mr. Bruce Campbell! Here's a recent interview he gave about his new role in the TV series "Burn Notice" and his new up coming indie movie "My name is Bruce"
September 17 Super Size Me!I'm doing a little experiment with my body.
I am what people would call an "ectomorph" meaning naturally skinny with a high metabolism which means putting on weight for me is really hard.
I've weighed like... 120-130 for like the last 5 years of my life even more so probably.
I've never really conciously tried to gain weight or lose weight before. sometimes I eat with the best of them and other days I just happen to not eat at all. Very unhealthy.
So really I've decided to see if I'm really an "ectomorph" or if I just suffer from like.. malnutrition.
Supposedly I'm supposed to be consuming around 2000 calories to maintain my current body weight.
Like I said before some days I eat like 2000+ calories and other days I don't eat at all, on average I'd say I consume around 1500 calories a day.
Currently for the last few months I've been consuming roughly 1300-1700 calories a day which isn't even enough to maintain my current weight.
For anyone who's ever tried to bulk up or lose weight then you know it's mainly 2 parts, exercise and diet. You've gotta count the calories and have a work out plan. The third and most important part is consistency. Being able to maintian a schedule of eating, exercise for an extended period of time is the only way a real diet works.
So my experiement is this... to try and bulk up a minimum of 10 to a maximum of 20 pounds in the next 3 months or so.
Currently (as of monday) I will be consuming a gross 3500+ calories a day through 5-6 meals a day, about twice the amount of calories I used to have a day to gain weight. I will also be par taking in a "jail yard" exercise program. I have no time for a gym and have no access to weights so I'll be working out in the same fashion convicts do with nothing but imagination and determination. So in a few weeks time we'll see what's really going on with my body, whether I'm truly an "ecomorph" or have I just been malnurished for the last 5 years. Should be interesting.... Let the gluttony begin!.... I wonder if you can OD on calories? Wouldn't that be funny if I ate myself to death... September 16 That's some Lex Luthor kinda shitDaaaaaaamn. I'm not in the mood for writing or updating anything but I just wanted to keep you all in the loop of the "Big Bang" experiment I've been following.
I've never even thought of hacking into the 'big bang' experiment and now that it's been done... well shit, it makes me think we've.... they've got big problems.
I wonder what would happen if a hacker hacked in the 'big bang' experiment changed a few just a few minor things.... BOOM?
Or what if some dude was doing some maintenece in there then suddenly some hacker just starts the whole machine up? would he be fried or turn into like Dr. Manhatten? September 13 Vanity knows no endsSo it's 5am here... friday night. I've decided to do a quick check on the good ol' TV.
first stop
24 local news and weather. Shitty weekend ahead, not gonna be able to ride, that's a bitch.
After the local news I like to see the big lies which means channel 33, CNN. Ike category 2, weatherman is standing outside barely able to stand while being pelted by rain and that rain has gotta hurt.
This is probably going to be going on for awhile and I'm done.
Next Discovery, sports science, show where they analyze the sciene of sports. Says it all in the title. They're measure the force of football players when doing certain things. Like coming off the line and open field hits then comparing them to other contact sports such as rugby. Kinda cool but useless facts I'm not interested in.
Then the piece a la resistance. The history channel. Infomercial. For what?
All it takes is 21 minutes.... wow... I can't believe anyone would buy that.
Fucking history channel... I think there's enough history to cover that you wouldn't need to play infomercials... they must be starving for cash or something.
This is why I had to stop watching TV.
ok last hope, teletoon usually doesn't lets me down when i'm in the mood for TV.
Some how the best is always last.
September 11 9/11 The Falling Man....Do you remember the real 9/11?
I wonder how many people called in sick that day and how many were relieved and/or distraught that they weren't there with their co-workers when the shit hit the fan. September 10 A small victory for the PeopleFirst and foremost.
Thank the People!
It's a step in the right direction. This never would have been possible without the help of the people. This gives me hope, that the revolution is still on track. secondly, We're still alive which means the 'Big Bang' experiment started well Third, I've come to the conclusion that having a "Vehicle" for transportation is a vile thing. It's like a "gateway drug". When you have no other mode of transportation other than walking and bus, you're confined to a certain area and can only do certain things, which means only a certain amount of money can come out of your pocket at any given time. Now when you have a vehicle... it's like... temptation. Anything you want to have and anything you want to do is readily availible to you for a price. Basically the world is your oyster. It's the beginning of being trapped in a consumer/material world which one can never really fully escape. See now that's a scary thought, I can indulge every sick and twisted craving at any time. It's 8pm and I want a cheese burger, then i'm going to Mcdonalds. Shit it's 2am and I need drugs? well then I can meet a drug dealer. It's 4am and i'm having a hankering for beef jerky and 2L of ice cream well 7/11 is right there! It's 5am and I'm horny so I'll just head down to the "massage" parlor... Having a vehicle is a gateway to gluttony. Being able to fullfill your desires at any given time is a dangerous thing. The next thing you know, you will have emptied your bank account and are on a one way trip to Vegas with "Champagne" the "massage therapist" with 2 eight balls of cocaine. September 09 And there goes the neighbourhood...Now I've been following this story since I first caught wind of it... perhaps a year or two ago...
This has to be the most interesting and exciting thing the human race has ever tried to come up with. This has all the makings of an "end of days" scenario.
The idea of colliding particles and atoms near the speed of light has to be a little uneasy.
The scientists have all been saying that this is by no means "dangerous" they say that, "more powerful particles collide with the Earth everyday and the Earth is still here"
Well that's all fine and good, that's call Nature. What we're doing is beyond that, what we're doing is subject to human error, need I mention Chernobyl?
I mean really how the hell can they really tell us, "it's totally safe", what if the calculations are off by a .000000000001? That could spell disaster! A bloody freaking blackhole could form and suck us all in or the whole thing could just explode.
But ofcourse, it's like "Oh they're highly trained and brilliant scientists. I'm sure their calculations are correct" well they maybe highly trained but after seeing THIS, their brilliance is in question... or atleast their self respect.
Here we go againOk, so it's election time again.
You know even before the election was called on sunday Harper already had election commercials on TV, does anyone else find that odd?
Now I like the Liberals, I mean I like the idea of "liberalism" fuck the conservatives but really... I'm a green kinda guy which is why I'm really upset at
Now What the fuck is that about? Again? Come the fuck on! That doesn't sound very democratic. I mean truely if there are say 7 parties then should all be represented equally even if the "leaders debate" would take 5 hours. The people who watch the full 5 hours will be well informed and are making concious political decisions which they feel will impact and be the best for Canada.
"Canada's national television broadcasters have barred Green Party leader Elizabeth May from the leaders' election debates, to be held on Oct.1-2."
So basically it's going down like this, The TV networks along with Harper pretty much decided to fuck the green party. Then the so called "liberals" say,
"Liberal Leader Stéphane Dion had not objected to May's participation, but said that if Harper refused to participate, he would not either"
Wtf does that really mean? So if May were allowed into the debate then Harper will not show which means Dion won't show either.... shit, this is sounding pretty good actually.
And you know what pisses me off even more? the fact that they cut the green party for the fucking Bloc Quebecois! No one outside of fucking Quebec even votes for them, those fucking separatists! It's not like the Green party is a joke either like the Marijuana party of Canada.
Now I'm not telling you WHO to vote for. I'm just saying that it ain't fair. It's almost as if the other parties are scared of the Green Party making a come upins.
