Vultures! F#%KING Vultures!

[Paul in NZ]

That's the trouble with ideology is that it never works.

What? Like Capitalisim?

What works are hybrid systems. Pure systems never work because they are generally not broad enough to cover humanities foibles. Hybrid systems are more adaptable but unfortunately are cyclic in nature. The mad woman and her cronies have (in most peoples opinion) gone too far and I believe this will be their last shot... We will see...

Too true, too true. Whenever some political Procrustes tries to force society to fit into the strait bed of any pure political ideology, it causes problems , and eventually the society either lops the head of the one eyed bugger or explodes itself.

The societies that work are those where customes rules and practices have evolved not because "they accord with the party line" but because "it may be odd, but it works".

Which is one reason why traditions and customs and the "polite conventionalities" of a society should be respected. They represent the acculmulated experience of many years , wherein has been found a modus vivendi that "just works".

Says he to the whole world with the NZ flag as his avitar..
Real easy to sit behind a computer screen, with your beer belly hanging over your belt (yup seen yer picture) and type such diatribe based on what..? For what reason..? When you have been to, seen, smelled, puked and witnessed such apalling poverty then maybe you can have such strong opinions. Until then..

I think you'll find that the NZ flag is my AVATAR.
My opinions are not restricted to sitting behind a computer screen, if anything I'm less opinionated online than I am in real life. Ask someone like Wolf who knows me.

As for the appalling poverty, I simply don’t care. Those people mean nothing to me; they are foreign race, in a foreign continent with a foreign culture. Their combined misery and suffering means a sum total of nothing to me. I guess you missed the thread where I said I wanted to start "Bullet Fund" to compete with Tear Fund, and for every dollar donated we'll shoot some 3rd world kid to prevent overpopulation. Some assumed the thread was a pisstake, it wasn’t.

I have no empathy for them, and it worries me not in the slightest. They mean as much to me as a blade of grass or a cow in a field. As long as they are not threatening me, my family, my culture or my country I don’t give a toss about them, the second they threaten any of the above (and I rank trying to move here as a refugee as a threat) I'm happy to see them all dead.

Charity begins at home btw folks, when NZ is a perfect utopia with no crime, no poverty, no child abuse, then maybe we can afford to give our money away to others, but until that day I vehemently believe it should be illegal to send aid to foreign countries that we are not allied with culturally and militarily.

I agree, however NZ's hybrid political system is a joke. It has failed us.

A serious question mate... Are your racist thoughts (not necessarily fully captured in this thread, but many others along a similar vein) with you every minute of the day?

I just don't 'get' people with such extreme views as yours. And I've no doubt you have a problem with we more liberal/worldly types. Fairy snuff though. You're entitled to your view. You're extreme though. And just mildly barking. No offence.

[Ixion]

Perhaps he does but honestly declare the sentiments that many others (I do not imply any of their number to be contributors here) share but conceal beneath a cloak of prevarication and euphemism?

Dunno, but "I'm all right , Jack" has a long , if not necessarily honourable, lineage.

Not all who profess noble aspirations of universal brotherhood match their deeds to their words. (I am speaking here entirely in the abstract).

Mr Lias is at least open about his non-altruism.

Yeh man... I'll have sex with black, white, yellow... any holes a goal.

Especially the brown, eh Weasel?

And that folks is why Gremlin walks funny.

It's a hybrid in the sense of in-breeding. But we end up being fucked.

My opinions are always with me, for they are in my head, but I suspect what your asking is if I dwell on them constantly which I do not.

I'm well aware that I'm err.. right of center.. and yes some liberal views do piss me off, however I dont consider myself to be particularly extreme thou, I reserve the extremist lable for those who run around with guns and bombs and send letters full of pork scraps to immigrants etc.

Cheers Ixion, I personally think that most people in the world are bigoted to a degree but that most try and hide it as you say. The world is full of hatred, think of all the simmering border wars around the planet, israel vs the middle east, india vs pakistan, muslim vs christian, I could go on. The world is always going to be full of violence and hatred until everyone is of the same race, same religion, same political ideology, same dress sense etc. In other words its never gonna happen. I'm content to worry about my little part of the world and the people in it who I give a damn about, and ignore everyone else unless they threaten my way of life.. I could just about argue that makes me a moderate pacifist compared to all that hatred going on
