ATTENTION: AMERICAN PUBLIC DISCOURSE COLOR CODED WARNING SYSTEM MOVED FROM "APOPLECTIC" TO "HALLUCINATORY"
WHY IS THIS MAN CRYING?
I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE FUCK ANYMORE,
Somebody explain this to me:
1. Glenn Beck shows us a Coke and a Kodak advertisement as proof of a magic America which once existed, but sadly, has been taken away from us. Or is some kind of paradise lost(?).
2. Wrangles with an overwrought second-person metaphor about how we have been doe-eyed innocents at a bad kid party where there is some experimenting with drugs and alcohol.
Mom and Dad are going to be mad.
3. This leads into a tough love conversation with ficto-mommy about how we will be "financially grounded" and will lead to us having to stay in on metaphorical Saturday night.
4. Beck talks about the future and our children and is overcome with tears.
5. We will tell our children that we "hated the things we did at the time"(tears). At this point I have lost the narrative thread of the metaphor. Are we crying to our future children about the bad party we went to where we weren't even indulging in the debauchery? Or we hated the things our dad made us do? "And Dad was right"?
The metaphorical trainwreck he is driving home amounts to: the current financial meltdown was some delinquent party, bad things were done, now we are to be grounded, and though we were not involved in the the bad stuff that went down, we shall take our punishment, and tell our children proudly. Or that the bad teenagers at the party are the current Marxists in the white house? Or both? I don't know
Who can parse this shit?
Honestly I watched this clip again and I don't even know what the fuck.
The thing which frightens me the most is that this passes for discourse in America.
A few posts down is the footage of the 9/12-teabagger rallies, demonstrations staged and directed by Fox news, and Glenn Beck.
Any cursory glance at the signs being held by the protesters shows that they have no idea what they are actually protesting. All of the interviews show the protestors to be inarticulate and ignorant but united in anger. (And I don't say this out of arrogance. See how people in numbers strongly oppose Obama's appointment of "czars". Their logic being that czars are Russian kings. From that logical leap "Czar = Russian = communism = Obama"(!)(?) Motherfuckers can't google "czar"?)
What alarms me is the fact that Beck has political clout, considering, that what comes out of his mouth is an unadulterated stream of nonsense.
O'reilly, Hannity, Limbaugh, et al have their share of nonsense but I can follow their tactics and twistings of facts.
False equivalency, strawman tactics, appeal to xenophobia and a false nationalistic neo-rockwell (via Reagan) vision of America. It is antithesis of everything I believe is good about America, but I understand how they do it. The bible thumping, the race baiting, these are standard boilerplate in stirring people up to support wars and politicians, to vote against their own political, social, and economic interests.
When I hear that shit, I hate it, because I understand it for exactly what it is.
But what alarms me is that Beck is capable of doing this while spewing stream of consciousness hallucinations.
Beck mobilized poor people without health care to march against health care on 9/12.
Is there an aspect to his paranoid-delusional maudlin delivery that I just don't understand?
Many commentators on the left say that what is mobilizing these people is some country-time down-home racism, which due to current social mores can't be vocalized in the same way it once could. Is it that simple?
I don't even know anymore.

SEDUCTION COMMUNITY ROLL CALL
Savoy
The Program Leader of all of Love Systems, Savoy is one of the most sought-after instructors of all time; he ONLY teaches exclusively at the Love Systems Super Conference. Savoy is the author of Magic Bullets, the gold standard how-to manual on attracting and dating beautiful women. An expert on attraction and female psychology, Savoy has appeared on the Dr. Phil Show ("You are giving men the tools to meet women."), the Tyra Banks Show ("Guys need what you teach."), Fox News and more.
"Savoy... you LITERALLY changed my life. You didn't just tell me - you showed me. Damn it, you're the man."
- B.W., Spokane, WA
The Don
The Don is one of Love Systems' most experienced instructors. He focuses on only the highest quality women, using a combination of intelligence, humor and strategy. When teaching, he focuses on imparting to students external tactics to generate attraction and internal ways to reshape their beliefs regarding what they are capable of with women. The Don believes firmly that success with women is a teachable skill and he prides himself on being able to demonstrate and communicate Love Systems methods to help men transform their lives. He's probably best known for his revolutionary Routines Manuals as well as his media appearances on the Dr. Phil Show and WGN News.
"The Don is the most natural of all the instructors, an alpha male with great bantering and role-playing skills. Every question he had an answer for, and he was especially knowledgeable about relationship management."
- Mr. M
Tenmagnet
Tenmagnet is an acknowledged master of pickup and seduction. Famous for his irreverent sense of humor and remarkable creativity, he has mastered the art of talking to any girl about anything. Tenmagnet has shared his breakthroughs on many Love Systems Interview Series Volumes, and continues to teach bootcamps across North America and beyond. His excellent teaching skills have led to thousands of men improving their skills and lives, including former bootcamp student and now fellow Love Systems instructor Cajun.
"Tenmagnet is da man! That dude KNOWS how to play this game forwards and backwards."
- Jason
Braddock
Braddock is one of the most popular dating science instructors in the industry. From dating Ms. Hooters to picking up a woman on the Maxim top 100, Braddock has run the full gauntlet, consistently dates some of the hottest women in the world. He's expanded the universe of Love Systems by teaching both the Social Circle Mastery Seminar and the Inner Game Seminar (both of which he co-founded with Mr. M), and the Strippers and Hired Guns Seminar (and he'll be teaching all three of these at this year's Super Conference!). Braddock has also helped spread the word by appearing with Savoy on the Tyra Banks Show!
"Braddock is a true Master Pick Up Artist, meaning he can teach as well as he games. His in-field demos were amazing; this is stuff you will never learn from an e-book!"
- D.B.
Mr. M
Mr. M is a 5'2 Asian guy who seduces Playboy Playmates. Seriously. It's no surprise that he was ranked in the Top 10 Pick Up Artists in the World by TSB Magazine and is one of the most sought after PUAs in the dating industry. Mr. M knows how seduction changes across cultures, and has taught all around the world. Beyond bootcamps, he regularly teaches Inner Game and Social Circle Mastery Seminars (available at the Super Conference!), both of which he co-founded with Braddock. Mr. M also founded the most comprehensive dating course in history - Project Rockstar.
"Mr. M accomplished something absolutely amazing during the course of the bootcamp. MR. M SUCCESSFULLY PICKED UP AN ACTUAL PLAYBOY MODEL and SPENT THE NIGHT IN HER HOTEL ROOM."
- Kisser
Soul
Soul concentrates on building an inspirational lifestyle on all fronts. The World's #1 Expert in Day Game (meeting women outside of bars and clubs), he regularly picks up beautiful women on the streets and in shopping malls, and has, in fact, met all the most beautiful women he has dated in daytime interactions. An experienced speaker and teacher, Soul enjoys sharing what he's learned with students to help them travel down their own path toward a rich lifestyle incorporating Love Systems and success with women. Don't miss out on studying with Soul, who was voted Best Instructor at Love Systems' 2008 Super Conference!
"Soul is an incredible teacher. He has mastered the art of day game. I highly recommend any opportunity a person can get to work with Soul."
- T.A.
Cajun
Applying his own style to Love Systems, Cajun rarely uses routines. Employing a more natural approach, he focuses on body language, tonality and what he calls "subtext" to create attraction. Known for his sharp wit, rock solid confidence and ability to attract women of any age, he has had amazing success. Cajun famously appeared on the hit show Keys to the VIP which involves two contestants who are self proclaimed "players" battling it out in the club for bragging rights. At 5'4 and called "100 pounds when wet," Cajun not only mopped the floor with the competition, but was declared by the judges as "The pinnacle..." and "The best guy we've seen..." in regards to his ability to attract women.
"Cajun's not as good as people say he is... he's better. Without a doubt this guy is the real deal."
- B.B.
Fader
Fader is a master of Love Systems and has applied its teachings to enrich his life and to give him the choice of women he had always wanted. An instructor par excellence, Fader imparts his love of self-improvement to his students by addressing their inner and outer game issues. His high-energy style and ability to calibrate to students allows him to assess their sticking points quickly and help them not only push past them but learn how to be self-correcting in the future. Fader's bootcamps regularly sell out, and he can always be found assisting the dating science community on The Attraction Forums.
"Fader was in my opinion the best instructor; super high-energy and an awesome teacher!"
- Z.G.
Sheriff
Sheriff is one of Love Systems' most experienced instructors, with great real-world experience as a promoter in London's hottest clubs. An expert on High-End Club Game and what it takes to be an Alpha Male, he can teach you the proper way to approach the most elite women in the most exclusive venues. Sheriff also focuses on relationship management and long-term relationships, making him highly sought-after at all Love Systems Super Conferences.
"Sheriff went out of his way to accommodate and help me get the most out of the bootcamp. Sheriff sets the bar really high."
- T.F.

DANCING CHILD WITH HIS CHINESE SUIT
He has sold albums by the million and was the idol of the 1960s protest movement. But yesterday Bob Dylan discovered what it's like to be just a face in the crowd. Police were called in a quiet seaside town after he was spotted freewheelin' down the street and apparently acting suspiciously. A 22-year-old female officer demanded to see his identification papers.
He assumed she would at least recognise the name if not the face. But she ordered him into the back of her car and took him to his hotel to check his story. Then she radioed her older colleagues at the police station to ask if anyone knew who Bob Dylan was.

JESUS BELIEVES IN EVOLUTION
"The Gods Are Real,
They Are Violent Aliens!
Wherefore,
Intelligent species probably evolved long before us, therefore,
They may have journeyed here and interfered with the development of life on earth, as science can deduce from patterns of rapid evolution, fossilized abductions, and hybrid species, therefore,
The gods of world religions, may be these aliens, therefore,
They give hidden prophecies about themselves, and secretly influence world events, and they pollute each others revelations with forgeries such as Genesis 1, therefore,
There might never be an Almighty God, as even the holy scriptures attest, therefore,
There is war among these alien gods, according to the law of Survival of the Fittest, therefore,
The alien gods compete for the genetic resources of earth, therefore,
The alien gods have haphazardly and imperfectly influenced the evolution of humanity and other creatures, as Genesis and the lost Biblical book of Enoch attest, therefore,
Because this cosmos is so filled with alien warfare, barbaric cruelties, forgeries, and genetic perversion, the Christian God has revealed to us that this cosmos is a failure, therefore,
Jesus Christ has endeavored to challenge the system, therefore,
Let it hereby be resolved the Jesus believes in evolution, and he hates it."

MEANWHILE ANARCHISTS FIGHT ANARCHISTS
“Don’t try to fight us, we are not pacifists, we will defend ourselves!”
[a couple of hours of moving bags, being forcibly moved, blockaded, physically and verbally attacked, and yes defending ourselves]
one apocista was pushed down stairs
one was pulled out of the room
one was picked up and taken out of the room
a female bodied persyn was almost punched in the face by a white male when 2 others pulled them back
female bodied persyn grabbed by a tall white man while others yelled get her
a mother of color came in to defend us and pull a poc organizer off one of us
poc organizers forcibly closing door on us, crushing our bodies and heads.
One grabbed a big board that was used to push us out the door.
After quite a bit of time and effort used by folks to get us out of that space, we remained standing.
The cops had approached, a call was made to one of us upstairs to inform us that there was a policeman outside and they were being talked to by a police liaison and the situation was under control. We looked around to see other people of color and a medium sized group of mostly cis white males that were left. While at this point mostly engaging in discussion with other POC and POC organizers some people convinced the remaining stubborn white people to leave, after telling the last white persyn there that they were not welcome in this space, the doors were locked and caucusing began.
After 20 minutes or so, most everyone had expressed their opinion, people were emotional, tired and the discussion ended. We removed ourselves from the space. One APOCista involved in the eviction conferred with a medic to try to regain normal breathing due to an asthma attack that had been taking place over the last 3 hours of the eviction. We all exited, we were greeted by friends, allies, and others that had helped us by participating in the action.
We said our goodbyes, and departed towards a locals house to debrief an discuss the events that had just taken place.

SUBMITTED FOR YOUR APPROVAL
I will not waste your time with any commentary on this.
Any and all comments are unnecessary. Also I do not know where to begin.
I know that this video is real, and comes from the same world in which I live, but it is beyond comprehension.
Please watch the full 14 minutes of this.
This is real, and in its way, sincere. I was going to go say something about this but I would rather not.
Also, Ice Cube?
Really?
