Good conversations to have: -The war in iraq -Darfur region of Sudan -china's organ harvesting concentration camps -whatever happened to North Korea? -Orson Welle's 1984 with a more apt title "2006" -John Lennon's assasination -JFK's assasination -Bush's hopeful assasination -the conflict between israel and palestine -AIDS in Africa -Bush and Rumsfeld passing a new bill which creates a loophole to allow torture and indefinite imprisonment of ANYONE labelled an "enemy combatant". -Third world debt being overhadowed by north american apathy
It's not important what we wear to dinner, or what kind of car we drive, or how much we have in our bank accounts, or what color our hair is, or what baby fucking Surrie is doing... there are atrocities commited every fucking day because most of us are too comfortable to look beyond the bubble domes of our lives.
I say, next time you get stumped for conversation, start bringing up the things nobody wants to talk to. Stir up the nest by mentioning the unmentionables. If anything, you're brining awareness to these issues, so when voting time comes around, hopefully people'll be more informed. You don't seem like a shit disturber though- which is why it would be so potent coming from you! Rock on.
If I had gotten this before I went for the dinner it would have been helpful..oh well...thanks though. :)
Truthfully some of these issues we talk about work a lot. But we also talk about Baby Suri Cruise and all that other useless shit....*shrugs* kind of sad..
Well, it's not BANNED discussion by any means- but I've been watching the news a lot lately, and holy crap, the important stuff is totally neglected by the senseless pop-culture crap. We all gotta do our parts by bringing it up though.
