Your duty as an American citizen.

[Reminiscence]

And if you're not American, it's your duty as a human being. Watch the documentary Zetigeist: http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/, at joox.net, or in sections on youtube. Take two hours of your time in order to look at things differently afterwards. The three main subjects: Christianity, September 11th, and the history and future of the Federal Reserve's control over the most powerful nation in the world. The first 10-15 minutes before it says "Part I" are a bit strange and you might want to skip through them if you're bored.

Good movie so far.

I heard George Carlin in the first 10 minutes. That was awesome.

First 10 minutes are quite attractive.

Your duty as someone that left the country and is happy where they are now:

Stop giving a shit about a country that you're pretending to not care about anymore.

huh huh doodie huhhuhuh

 

[American citizen]

Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn.

 

[Captain Beard]

Why should I watch it? I don't do something just because someone claims it to be my duty.

 

[derek]

Oh please.

 

[Captain Beard]

Oh please what? It sounds like some lameass conspiracy tape with anti-religious tendencies. The anti-religion won't sway me.

 

[mReEtTaIlRsEkD]

Hard Candy sucked.

Oh no, I'm with you. The "Oh Please" was about the video.

 

[Captain Beard]

Oh, ok. Sorry then

 

[derek]

That's alright. It was reasonable to assume I was reacting against your general antipathy.

 

[Anvil]

I don't think it's the people of this forum who needs to watch such a movie... It's everyone else.

 

[derek]

The problem with that is that half of them would believe it. The way to educate people about the sorry state of corruption we've nestled ourselves into is hardly to put together shoddy conspiracy laden tapes and post them on the internet under the pretence that they really speak about the spiritual, intellectual and political climate of an age.

 

[JBroll]

I'm not going to begin to rant about how this weakens the credibility of many of those claims by relying on conspiracy theorists and other such loons.

Your duty as someone who seems to have an irreparable case of 'Europe wins!!!1! U r teh noob, Amerika' is to check your facts before touting sketchy documentaries. Silly bugger, thinking you can make unverified claims and wild exaggerations... that's our job.

Anyways, I did watch the movie, and I was surprised to see that it was able to support it's theories well.

someone on the Battleheart board tried to get me to watch a week ago; i just kinda "LOL"ed at her and said conspiracy theories are for people with too much time on their hands and not enough logic upstairs

As was I.

So my question is, aren't the cynical remarks and complete dismissal of any validity this video might hold, the exact sort of complacency that, it says, is being perpetuated by the antagonists it depicts?
Just an observation.

 

[JBroll]

No, as someone who just checked sources and saw some of the first part (which wasn't as bad - few people question the historicity of Christ, and few of those who don't have even a basic idea of what would have to happen to prove it) I think someone can not be a complacent anti-change and anti-intellectual buffoon and still disagree. "With us or against us" isn't going to hold - some people just hold higher standards and dislike poor attempts at representing any views whether they agree with them or not.

So from the way that read, I really can't tell if the responses have more to do with the content of the movie or the way it was presented by the original poster.
