One American's Rage Spills Over: Shut Your Mouth & Start Fighting These Political Parasites
Warning: NSFW, for the weak of heart, look away...
Submitted by Thad Beversdorf via First Rebuttal blog,
I was shocked today by the absolute gaul of the Fed releasing a statement about Net Worth in America reaching record levels. Now I get that they are under extreme pressure to sell the story that everything is rainbows and butterflies. But surely they understand that working class Americans are going along with the story because they really don’t have any say in our nation’s policies anymore. That doesn’t mean they want it thrown in their faces that the Fed has spent 6 years now inflating the wealth of the top 10% so much that it actually lifts the total wealth of the nation’s citizens to record highs.
The ugly reality is that the bottom 80% of Americans experienced none of that gain. That’s right a big ole goose egg. And so when the Fed via its ass pamper boy, Steve Liesman, start banging on about the fact that some sliver of society is being handed extraordinary wealth while the working class has lost 40% of their net worth since 2007, well a big fuck you right back at ya bub! The Fed is very aware that the bottom 80% of Americans own less than 5% of US equity markets. And so the Fed is very aware that its manipulation of stock prices such that it creates immense unearned wealth to those in the markets doesn’t reach the bottom 80%. So why celebrate the results of the stock market price manipulation??
It is embarrassing that our policymakers are either that inconsiderate or that stupid to celebrate such a brutal dislocation between the haves and have nots. I don’t know what one can even say about the Fed making a celebratory statement like that today. It is somewhat beyond words. And really paints the picture as to how little thought goes into the lives and well being of the bottom 80%.
Just to give you something to compare and contrast the situation of the bottom 80% here in the US to counter the Fed’s celebration today. I want you to think about how lucky we are not being in one of the PIIGS nations of Europe. These are the nations that are essentially bankrupt and just hanging on by the kindness of the Troika. Glad we’re not there right?? Well allow me to show you a chart published by CNN Money some 8 months ago.
So there it is. While the average net worth of Americans is 4th in the world pulled up by the top 10%, the median net worth of Americans comes in the 19th spot. Yep, behind Spain, Italy and Ireland so 3 of the 5 PIIGS nations. Meaning the bottom 80% in these broke ass barely hanging on nations have more wealth than the bottom 80% of us here in America.
So I’d like to ask the Fed, is it that you just hate the working class here in America and thus like to torment them or are you truly that stuck up your own asses that you just cannot see the light? Celebrating the fact you did today is downright nasty you lowlife scoundrel pieces of shit. It’s akin to a family showing off and celebrating a new born baby at the funeral of another family’s child. It is just a very ugly thing to do. Even if it wasn’t meant to be malicious it looks very much like a giant FU.
And for Americans, why, please god tell me why is it that Americans are so willing to be shit on for so long without so much as a hint of standing up to these monsters that steal our wealth and pass it around their political class. Having grown up in Canada while all of my relatives were here in the US I was intrigued by the States. I used to think of Americans as an incredibly admirable people. The type of people that are confident, strong, intelligent and command respect. I really truly did. But having lived here now since 2001, what I see is a people that have rolled over on our backs. As long as we get a few belly rubs once in a while we’re happy to live without a hint of respect. We seem fine with being demeaned, controlled, robbed, enslaved and yes shit on by our political ‘superiors’.
Is the real Giant Con the ideal American? Was it just a made up concept sent out to the rest of the world in hopes we could instill a fear simply by portraying the notion of a truly formidable American? I really don’t have the answer. Perhaps at some point in time Americans really were a force to be reckoned with. And if that is the case then what a sad story to be told to the world 100 years from now. How a nation got fat, lazy, complacent, perhaps stupid and definitely lost all sense of self esteem.
Imagine the founding fathers looking down on all of this. Hell imagine those who fought on the beaches of Normandy looking down at what America has become. Knowing that they sacrificed everything just to hand the nation over to a group of foreign sociopaths. Imagine those men having to see that Americans no longer have any sense of dignity other than to yell loudly that “we are still great” kind of like that drunk in the corner that wants to fight everyone but can’t seem to find his legs to even stand up from his stool. How incredibly disheartening it would be for those WWII soldiers to see us now.
We have become nothing but a host to a group of political parasites that have thrived on our wealth and our strength. And they’ve watched us slowly die over time growing weaker and weaker. Less able to find the strength to uphold the duties entrusted to us. God, what a sad fucking story we are. Thanks Steve Liesman for rubbing shit in our eyes today. Hope you got a few clicks.
And for those of you that think I’m an ass for being so harsh on us, well stuff it. Get up off your stool you lazy drunk, shut your damn mouth and start fighting these political parasites like a damn man, like a damn American. I’m not the one stealing your retirement, stealing your income, stealing your wealth and stealing your freedom all while making myself wealthy and exonerated from all the laws that would put your ass in prison. In short I ain’t your enemy. If you’re mad by what I said then do something more constructive than calling me an asshole. Capiche?? Good.

I mean.. yes, Caesar has quelled some uprisings and unified the region.. but for how long?.. for how long?
PS: I guess Thad should have spent more time reading, rather than playing beer-pong with his Frat Bros.
...for gaul and peak on ZH always read gall and pique. Anything written in German who knows but you'll be branded a "snob"... USA USA USA

Yes, quiet please. Dip-buying in progress. If you scream too loudly, you'll scare away the bulls.
Holy crap - you're not the weekend Tyler!

I am 50 years old and this is the BEST Economy i have EVER Seen... EVER! thank you president obama... (p.s. i Hope Putin is OK!)
I guess the down voter to your post didnt get your sarcasm? tough crowd.
davidalan1: yeah.. LOL! there ARE a LOT of pissed off people... and rightfully so! for those too dense to get it.. my above post was SARCASM!
If "Nuland and the Neocons" get their way (and they sure are giving it a very good shot), it may very well be "the best economy you ever saw", in hindsight, since the "economy" that will follow WW3 will be "quantitatively different" with a lot less "easing" . . . .

dimwitted economist davidalan1: yeah.. LOL! there ARE a LOT of pissed off people... and rightfully so! for those too dense to get it.. my above post was SARCASM!

A sarcasm tag isn't for the readers, it is for the poster. No one knows if you are really that dumbass are just being sarcastic. I don't care how silly the comment is. To this day, we have moron leftist that think Obama is the best president ever (no sarcasm).
I can tell when my girl friend is being sarcastic by her facial expression, tone of voice as well as experience. We don't have that benefit on some message board. For all all I know that person might really be a dumbass. (By the way, I made no vote). If you get a down vote because people don't understand your sarcasm, that is your fault. Make it clear.
Amen bro... say it with me? Yes we can! Yes! We! Can!
If you are fifty then this is the only economy you've ever known. The difference now is that they aren't afraid to say it loud and proud. Next line, blah, blah, something about a shroud.
Question remains, what do we do and who or what, do we do it to in such a way that it makes a difference?
History shows lots of examples of the only thing that works!
Pft that shit didn't work at all. There are REAL solutions to this issue but it's going to take time (probably about twenty years) and a good deal of burnt capital. That's the honest truth nobody wants to hear. So instead we'll get drunk on our bar stools belly aching on the web.
Claiming that there are solutions and providing one are two different things.
We do not have Twenty Years.
I do not drink.
But I do know how to make bombs. Do you?
The time has past for any other hope. These fuckers are planning our total annhilation. Thermonuclear War will kill you. YOU MUST ACT.
Any post like this should be assumed an FBI honey pot.
Any post of yours is considered to be a troll post.
Throw me in jail and you hand me an army.
You're an idiot.
Maybe not. Remember the same strategy worked rather well for Nobel Peace Prize - winner Saint Mandela (and even warranted the First Family paying a visit to the funeral).
More likely an FBI honey dick..
tom i like you. stop trying so hard to make it on the "list" bro
I am already on the list.
When I wrote on the National Association of Rocketry cooments that I was handed Aluminum Cans, which are easily made into knives, after boarding an airplane, that got me on that list.
When they strip searched me when I was flying to my mother's death...that confirmed it. I had an Air Marshall with me on that flight.
They served me Aluminum Canned drinks again. The NAR Website was being monitored by the BATF.
No worries dude.
Great.
We got Forrest Gump with a can of Coke and some Pop Rocks.
Go get 'em Tiger.
That is what they targeted. i was just pointing out that the "Insecurity Measures" were ineffective.
A torn Tomato Juice Can is just as sharp as any Box Cutter.
So I do not fly alone.
Interesting, I had a similar thought on one of his posts on another thread, but then i thought to myself. Here we are warning someone to be afraid for stating his thoughts. We are not in Kansas anymore.
something about the tree of liberty and the watering thereof...
Must is a tough nut to crack, 10 to 1 you blow yourself up first before any field success. The best one is the nitrogen and diesel fuel mix, placed under a steel wool and 9v battery detonator, vehicle runs over bomb, setting spark, and whamo, it' goes off. Good luck and now your odds are only 9 to 1 of killing yourself before a successful field detonation.
Ammonium nitrate and diesel fuel. (ANFO).
Use home-made nitrogen tri-iodide as a shock sensitive detonator (WITH CARE).
Helps having friends who were in bomb disposal during "The Troubles" in Northern Ireland (REME)
It's neat when you get the Iodine snowfall after the detonation. It sure is unpredictable when it starts to dry out.
I used to be a pyromaniac.
Try a 50:50 mix of sodium chlorate (unstabilised) and icing sugar (mix, but CAREFULLY), and a NI3 home-made detonation cap.
Or for extra shits 'n' giggles - magnesium filings in glycerine: Add some potassium iodide crystals, then run like hell (DONT SHAKE!!)
(Just in case "The Law" is reading - I'm only suggesting these as "Thought Experiments" - since the outcome is rather dangerous / spectacular / unpredictable :-D )
DP
@ tommybombs
I laid it out more succinctly on page four. And I am acting thank you very much. But you know what? I'm one dude, a non-violent one, that has to work 40hrs a week first, and act second. You wanna throw me a couple mill $ bills so I can quit my job and go at this shit like I wish I could?
Then lets do it!!
I will take you on a fuckin ride and we will make some history. Otherwise we are going to have to allow this shit to proceed as is.
I'll assume I don't need to suggest you get your bug out plans in order.
1. continue doing what preppers do (i'm pretty sure they intend to supernova these markets)
2. be thankful you are not a 1%, as they just paint targets on themselves really (i don't advocate violence personally - but history shows it will likely come to them, despite fences and rentacops)
Next, watch for coming movements among ex-military to re-establish the republic (not overthrow- re-establish constitutional law). I would say also, avoid supporting anyone promoting secession - see Andrew Jackson's farewell address, or that of other presidents for the reasons. I would say also, consider supporting a 100% silver backed currency in America, should the opportunity come.
3. a little prayer might help - for all I know there may be a significant climatic or astrophysical event forthcoming that our wonderful leaders have decided not to share with us. Ofcourse there's always nukes, and reportedly the Pacific is dying, but hey??
4. If you have a spaceship with some extra capacity, let me know
If you hurry, you can still sign up for the one way trip to Mars mission. Interviews are being conducted now.
The the best you can. If you can inform and reason, do it. If you can organize, do it. If you can train, do it. If you can gather intel, do it. Even if there is no revolution, doing these things will not be harmful in anyway. If there is a revolution these things will be necessary.
Bingo. Hang the fucking traitors...
Hang Rich, keep the Politicians
Hang Politicians, keep the Rich
Trend Poll, Which would you choose?
Seems like a distinction without a difference. Why choose? And how? The ones work for the others.
One choice leaves you with politicians and no rich, the other leaves you with rich and no politicians. There's a tremendous distinction as they are opposite extremes of gov intervention.
"Opposite extremes of gov intervention". I lol'ed!
In Cronystan they are opposite sides of the same coin...
Which one has the most chads? Hanging chads are bad.
Well have not seen this linked for awhile, sing along

Just relaying not vouching for 100% accuracy. I keep my mind open very few if any "media sources" on this planet I trust.
"I keep my mind open very few if any "media sources" on this planet I trust."
That made me look them up and people are saying they are a shill. Terrible reviews,
"Not a legit source of information but rather a bunch of bias conspiracy theorists spewing their hatred of America. Pretty sad that people actually believe their stories...."
http://www.sitejabber.com/reviews/www.veteranstoday.com
even they say that half of what they put out is made up, to protect themselves by making it look like they're not getting the inside scoop.
Oh well that makes sense, Joe. To make it look like.
Sure, they have some oddballs and quacks over there but not all of them. That article by James has merit.
Hell, look at some of the "contributors" here at ZH. Chuck Biderman? Marc to Market? Haha...
Kindly fill us in on the "correct version" of how the world became enslaved to banks or whatever term you want to use.
I pass everything through a filter to include what I see at ZH. I don't really care per se about the exact details all I know is nothing will change until we purge from society those that got us here and continue to benefit from this status quo. I don't care who gets credit.
As I've stated here before some things we see (by "we" I mean Americans and humans in general) are so absurd and fucked up the only explanation I have is that they are intentional. If they are intentional then some group of people are pushing for them and making them happen. So then I ask why and who? You get the point.
I can answer that but I won't yet. I have an opinion of excatly what ideology got us here and who continues to benefit from this status quo. I'm just wondering why you're linking BS information and saying it's to be trusted when the website itself is very questionable. Do you have an agenda?
Absolutely no agenda. I come to ZH from the perspective of an investor/trader and business executive. Frankly I think politics is a complete waste of time. I'm human so yes I do observe things. I am interested in trying determining how we really got to where we are and what we can do about it if anything.
Over the years and with the proliferation of the internet I've learned to remain open and to dismiss and ignore the MSM but closely scrutinize other sources of information. For example, with this source I would not and do not believe everything they publish but there may be tidbits here and there or specific pieces that have merit in my view. If posting that article implied my full endorsement of the entire site then I will say that was not my intent.
That said - I am interested in your version because I don't trust any one source exclusively especially when trying to uncover what TPTB have fought so violently to be kep secret for so long.
OK, fair enough. We'll pick up the conversation on some other thread cause I'm actually supposed to be working so I won't get to respond today.
I'm pretty sure you can rely on anything the Reptoid Aliens post.
They got spaceships an shit.
We didn't "get" here. We have always been "here". It's just that people are waking up to how "here" is.
The Zionists have been building "here" since the Roman days. What exactly do you think the Crusades were about? Religion and "government" are their tools.
Preston James connects some of the dots pretty darn well. I respect his point of view when it comes these soulless Satanic/Luciferian monsters trying to rule the world.
I thought the whole point to being a Satanic Luciferian type guy was to sell your soul to Mr. D. when you go for the dirt nap.
So they gotta have souls, right?
I hear ol' Beezelbub is a stickler on contract law.
Here's a hint. The Bible never says Lucifer is the devil.
No question the only thing the banksters and their political buttboys will take any notice of is open non compliance and revolt against their bullshit political system non choice.
They're just waiting for that as long as they can. That's why the USPS, USDA, etc buy ammo by the million. What pisses me off the most, I think, are the sheeple that will be still singing the national anthem and taking off their hats while they're being herded into FEMA.
The country and our heritage are not at fault. I love America and what it stands for. I hate the goons who have corrupted and stolen from it. I will be singing.
I'm guessing you'd put me in the "hate america first" crowd.
I understand the narrative that at one time America stood for justice, opportunity, freedom, apple pie and was generally considered the all-around "good-guy". As long as I've been old enough to make my own observations, I've had some trouble reconciling that. The Clintons were in office when I started following politcs closely and I found their blatant corruption a shock.
The shock part wore off because the same thing has been essentially going on non-stop since then. So maybe the heritage part was true at one time, but nobody can tell me it is now. Presuming that's true, I have no idea when Amerrica made the switch from "good guy" to "bad guy" because I have never seen it and won't be singing any songs at camp FEMA.
Well, seeing as "everyone knows the Russkies are gonna nuke the US of A", it will be an absolute doddle to get the masses to present themselves right at the gates, no trains needed at all!
Rerun the 1960's "Duck and Cover Educational films", brought suitably up to date with some slick editing / CGI courtesy of Hollywood / LucasFilms, and depict the FEMA camps as "YOUR Government - PROVIDED facilities where you may safely shelter in the knowledge that all your needs will be provided for, until it is "safe" to return to your normal lifestyle (!!)"
Maybe all the MSM rhetoric has many purposes - "instilling this mindset into the masses" may well be one of them, since an obedient population is far easier to "manage" than a collection of militant dissidents.
There are quite a few people out there who question the "patriotism" of those who don't support bombing the russians, or anybody else for that matter.
That's typically the same group that mocks anyone who doesn't believe the story on 9/11, and calls them "truthers" as though they're stupid. Go back further and they're the same one's that labelled anyone against NAFTA as an isolatioinst.
I'd fight them.
Right on, right on, right on!!!!
The author asks:
Answer:
- Usurpation of rule of law through central banking and destruction of consitutional principles.
- Skool, for compiiance and obedience, and validation of winners' history (bankers are winners).
- Media, for immediate validation of 'official' story.
Don't forget the bread and circuses
More like a dead parrot and a slice of wonderbread.
It's not dead, it's pining for the fjords.
Answer: Hard-wired to obey authority because in our past, that behavior promoted survival.
Not as much as for those being obeyed, but enough to be present in 99% of today's populations.
+1 for your name.
Answer:
1) The idea that, one day, all of us will be rich. Therefore, we don't want to tax the rich too much and end up taxing ourselves too much that one day.
2) Religion.
Did the rich co-opt the political system, or did the political system enrich their cronies and squash their enemies with money presses?
Yes.
As long as the herd gets to go home and tend to their FarmVille and see likes for their cat with sunglasses pic, all is well!
fucking hilarious man.
adding to the answer, a post from yesterday:
some men have morals, some don’t
some men are honest, some are crooks
some men work, some don’t
some workers save, some don’t
some savers invest, some don’t
some go to school, some don’t
same go into politics, some don’t
some go into banking or brokerage, some don’t
some rig the system, and some don’t (but wish they could learn how)
all the politicians and bankers live off of the labor and savings of those who do work
and those blood-sucking cockroaches, bedbugs, lice, nits, weevils, mice, rats, sons and daughters of incubus and succubus, and scum sucking viruses are supported and encouraged, and their tactics hidden from view by world-class bought and sold windbag media types
and it has gone so far that the America of our fathers has no chance
men with courage, conviction, integrity and the backbone of self-reliance on honest principles are in short supply
such men stand no chance against cheating, greedy, self-indulgent, conscienceless politicians, public officials, appeasers, capitulators, and phony regulators, and scumbag banksters
an honest man in Washington DC, or any state capital, or on Wall Street would never stand a chance
Those Banksters and their Politicians have fewer morals and a lower conscience than even the non-dues paying delinquent Auschwitz Human Ornamental Sewers & Stitchers Lamp Shade Makers Union combined with the full-fledged and highly regarded members of the Buchenwald Medical Experimentation Technicians & Labor Assembly, and the Dachau and Lublin Amalgamated Oven & Incinerator Operators Maintenance and Repair Union members.
And we thought you couldn’t go any lower than that until ZIRP:
If you really wanted to financially ass rape the most people you would set interest rates negative, the only way to make money is to borrow it (Politician) and have them (the folks) pay you through the Banksters for it. Credit/debt would get extended enormously. You would broadcast to the people your intentions of things going on like this forever. Then, with no warning, you would reverse course and buy up all the bankrupt people's stuff for pennies on the dollar.
When the negative deposit rate reaches unbelievable proportions – it will soon be -3% in the EU - on the woe begotten theory that you must force the savers to use their money – spend it you old dumb fucks who voted us into power and who have destroyed your lifetime of prudent and responsible savings – and shut up and die. What did you think when we took over the state governments and ran gigantic negative funded retirement plans, and how stupid could you be re-electing us over and over while the unfunded liabilities of Social Security and Medicare rose every year.
I look for the next Robespierre*, Lenin, Hitler, Stalin, Mao Zedong, nothing less will fix this mess:
*“Terror is only justice: prompt, severe and inflexible; it is then an emanation of virtue; it is less a distinct principle than a natural consequence of the general principle of democracy, applied to the most pressing wants of the country.”
I bet voodoo dolls of Greenspan, Bernanke, Draghi, Abe, and Yellen, etc., would fly off the shelves and possibly even revive the economy!!!
Good idea on the voodoo dolls.
Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off.
+1231231 for pertinence and timing
You also see frustration.
It is very difficult to persuade those who WILL NOT see. Then there are the rather well-connected who are VERY keen to maintain the present level of ignorance and obscurity, especially where the sources of their hidden benefts are concerned.
You'll notice Australia is right up there near the top in median and mean wealth - and this has led to jaw-dropping levels of complacency, the unfortunately commonplace "it's different here, Mate" mindset. Even the merest hint of a mention that "things could go wrong" is a certain conversation-killer, and I have been told on many occasions to "shut up, go home and polish your tinned potatoes", because it seems any "planning for a possible disruption" puts one into the "Doomsday Prepper" basket.
Quite an attitude for a pretty dumb population, in a Country with an "economy" based on "dig it out of the ground and flog it off to anyone who might be able to use it".
Well once the birds come home to roost, it'll be too little, too late, won't it. http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-03-11/danger-down-under-%E2%80%94-brief-look-australias-trade-flows
Just the way it is man.. you either co-own the system (ownership class), are bought by the system (welfare class), or are still on the treadmill trying to own the system (middle class). 99% of people want the system and will protect it.
One way or another you have to play the game.
The middle class is at the core of the economy. They control the flow of skills, the productivity, they have the need (and knowledge) innovate. When the middle class turns, the seeds of revolution are sewn.
That's probably why the middle class has been shrunk away to nothing.
Like Morpheus said to Neo about people protecting the System.
Slooooooooow boil.
here we go
What a moron...
That statement about Americans...obviously made by someone who has NEVER worked retail. Retail teaches you that 90% of Americans are rude, arrogant, self important assholes without regard to age, sex, color of skin or sexual orientation. The jury is still out on the other 9% and the remaining 1% are the gems of our horrible society--the few who are extraordinary and make life somewhat tolerable and worth living.
You think the gem-count is as high as 1% huh? What time did you start drinkin'?
i graded on a curve
I think you need to add WHERE you are working retail. If it's in an inner city, well duh -- of course 99% are hairless apes screaming for their next banana. If it's in a small town (not suburb) or country, you are likely wrong.
if you think there is any difference between the inner city or the wealthiest suburbs you are delusional. Income or Lack thereof doesn't differentiate between any Lee Atwater wedge issues. They're either an asshole or not.
I found many people in rural East Texas and Louisiana very welcoming and hospitable to me. It was 20 years ago and I was 19 and 20 but as an English/Canadian guy it was noticable to me. I met some very sincere down to earth interesting people there.
'Our horrible society' yea basically has turned me lately into a total anti social I hate going anywhere due to the non stop parade of self righteous morons.
like the BMW 700 series driver who launches into a total four letter rage at the gas station attendants because they wouldn't preapprove him because his "i can buy this fucking gas station" and "i make more in a fucking day than you do in a year" BMW didn't have a plate on the front of his car.
Yep. I can completely understand not going anywhere to deal with people like that.
One of the defining characteristics of today's "Nouveau Riche" - money does NOT breed a sesne of courtesy to others.
A glance at the behavious of the Good and Great from Wall Street / Congress / Regulatory Authorities (all the same "Overall Company" as you certainly know) tends to confirm this.
Money doesn't breed any sort of behavior. It simply empowers it.
Look to anyone who has really worked and literally earned it. Most times you will see at least fairness in their character if not kindness and generousity. Fair would be a good median.

+1 Worked retail for many years growing up. Saw how customers could threaten bodily harm on an employee and be given what they want (We want you to be satisfied!) instead of being shoved into the box compactor.
Not just Retail, Mate! I had both front teeth broken by the "partner" of a Patient who decided she wanted "urgent attention".
ED "Graveyard Shift" on a Saturday evening / Sunday morning . . . . . . .
I belonged to that line of thinking a long time ago. Then, I got to better know my fellow Americans, and I wised up.
Very Anglo-American world view for sure. I like a lot of Americans. There are good people in that nation still. Politics though, it pollutes.
"And for Americans, why, please god tell me why is it that Americans are so willing to be shit on for so long without so much as a hint of standing up to these monsters that steal our wealth and pass it around their political class"
Im curious if god answered Thad or if he was being facetious.
The gods are LTAO at this pipsqueak loudmouth. I'm sure they will send a demi-god (probably god of nail-guns or god of falling out windows) down to visit him soon.
Most Favorite ZH article ever!
Kill all of the motherfuckers!!!
Ameritards will believe anything and do whatever they're told.
This fact has already been demonstrated.
Your fact is neither fun nor a fact.
Its better to burn out than to fade away.
Take a stand, America.
Just not a violent one, Bob.

Maybe the American people are lot smarter than pundits give them credit for: they see the utter futility of trying to change a system politically that suffers from much more fundamental rot. Politics and its handmaiden, economics, in other words, is just the most obvious manifestation of a more deep-seated problem. If you're on the Titanic, do you waste time w/bailing buckets?
Yeah, I know, it's a stretch, but it IS an explanation that fits w/the facts.
Amen.
They are fighting like Americans, only attacking people that can't defend themselves, are brown, and that haven't done anything to deserve it. The retards deserve what's coming. Many Americans can't stand the US, imagine what foreigners think.
You mistake us for the po-po dog.
It's a party. They are indeed celebrating. Celebrating the fact that they are in on insider-information, paid for mansions that are featured in Architectural and Interior Design magazines, multiple residences, private jet cross-continental passage, top tier armed body guards for free, retirement accounts maintained by "your friend"...what's not to celebrate. When you're "in" you'd be a fool to derail this train. Right?
i think i am in love!!!! wow!

Criminals, criminals ... how can I join them?
Hypothetically speaking of course, who would we shoot first for greatest impact?
Hypothetically - that is not a good way to go. You take out one and then the rest go to ground. Think the Valentine's Day massacre, Godfather I, Michael Collins taking out the Black and Tan leadership. You can fill in the blanks from there - hypothetically speaking.
Harming cops or politicians wouldn't change a thing.
Agreed - be like going afterJamie Diamond's chauffeur and thinking you effected Jamie
Agreed
Speaking purely in theory, of course, I would think 2-3 stockholders of central, private banks would get things moving.
Greatest impact... tough question. My hypothetical answers are as follows:
For US politicians:
The greatest impact would be to take out one or the other of the two political parties by striking when the most of them are in the same place. The Republican or the Democratic national conventions. Because you'd only get one of the two, the primary target therefore would have to be whichever party currently holds the White House.
I had the same thought about the rich:
Davos is obviously the number one target.
Hypothetically speaking, all D candidates could be wiped at the Jefferson-Jackson dinner which kicks off the whole freaking D nomination process every four years, long before the first caucus. All the candidates make multiple appearances in Iowa, early and often. The access is astonishing. The Jeff-Jack dinner has afternoon appearances by all the dems in the HyVee Center in the afternoon where they meet and great all the plebes. You would be totally amazed at the lack of security (none to get in the building, no bags searches, nada) and complete access to every pol pressing flesh. Theoretically speaking. Then the night seats everyone in the big auditorium risers sections with the candidates and the state party pols on the main floor eating dinner at files of round tables while listening to candidate speeches.
Hypothetically speaking of course, who would we shoot first for greatest impact?
Chairman of the Fed.
That was Friggin Awesome. My thoughts exactly. Question is what do I do about it?
If you can't beat them, join them. Donate some money to your congressman or senator, or become a "bundler" for the next President. They will find you a sweet spot so you can join in - and screw the ignorant, fat, dumb, and happy Americans!
Nothing but BTFD.
Mass media controls the psyche of most Americans.
Mass media has the same bed as politicans, 2 peas in a pod you might say.
The US mass media molds thinking like the mind is putty.
Mass media controls the minds of those who wouldn't be able to come up with a decent idea anyway.
The "American spring" will begin...
As soon as they finish eating pizza on the couch watching a Kardashians ass on reality TV
yeah no kidding
but speaking of springs, pretty much every "spring" middle east and elsewhere were financed by powerful intrests. im starting to wonder if there has ever been a true revolution that wasnt paid for by some other bearaucracy
No. It'll happen once they can't afford the pizza and the cable.
What is one to do? Hang the Fed (since our elected representatives will not do the right thing)? But what about my $45k in my 401k? I am planning on a grand retirement.
It comes down to this: I should be willing to sacrifice for the future world my children will live in.
Well spoken Tyler...
What we have is a cabal of rich and well-connected MFers who perfected a coup 'de tat in 2000. No way "shrub" actually won the election. This was followed by the biggest false flag operation in history, 911, ushering in PNAC's requirement for a "Pearl Harbor event" in order to get the American people to back their sandbox wars and "Patriot Act" domestically. The people we "elect" are "selected" so as to provide the sideshow we see daily, while the real action (TPP) is happening in secret behind the backs of the taxpayers.
It's the biggest, ugliest period in world history and since it involves so many elements it's damn near impossible for the average American to grasp. I've stopped trying to convert people I know since most are Fox news stupified and refuse to recognize truth when it's in front of their noses.
WCL. I up arrowed you but say "the ugliest period in world history" is relevant.
If you were a slave in another time, things looked similar. The Romans fed us to animals.
It wouldn't have mattered who won in 2000, 911 would have happened and another 2,000,000 would die throughout the Middle and East Asia. 50,000 have died within the last year in Ukraine.
The Deep State could give a flying f**k about elections.
That you think this shit just started in 2000 says a lot about how comprehensive the control of information has been up until the internet became a real threat to the status quo.
This shit has been going on since at least the Roman days. As even Jesus was said to have been encountering the moneychangers/Pharisees.
In 1999, on signing Gramm-Leach-Bliley into law, Clinton said, “This is a day we can celebrate as an American day” and that ” the Glass-Steagall law is no longer appropriate for the economy in which we live” and “today what we are doing is modernizing the financial services industry, tearing down these antiquated laws and granting banks significant new authority” and “This is a very good day for the United States.” Columbia Journalism Review, Bill Clinton on Deregulation
And how many dumb fucks believe Uncle Billy was one of our greatest presidents?....
