Last week Al Jazeera was the most searched-for term on the web.

It replaced sex.

what i do every saturday night - try to take over the world!
tunnelslats:
Most definitely yes. I should be doing a number of things, chiefly making a book for my friend, putting a new chain on my bike, writing, and making some fliers. Whew, is it any wonder I don't know where to start?

ps: I am a pacifist, because I think that violence of any sort does nothing but compound our misery.
And I'm a sissy boy.

(This is for the anti-war folks only, kay?)

Do you consider yourself a pacifist? Why or why not?

Definitely a pacifist.... I don't believe in violence for any reason, save defense, and I do not consider the current "war" defense.
ilovemikehunt:
i consider myself a pacifist, however, i'm pro-war. (i know you said anti-war only, but i'm assuming you were expecting all pro-war people to be non-pacifists.)
i don't feel the need to be violent in my life's situations, i think most things are better resolved using werds and violence won't accomplish shit. however, when it comes to a situation as this war, werds aren't gonig to accomplish shit; we're dealing with a power hungry dictator who's not willing to reason with the outsiders that are trying to take his power away. thus, the only reasonable solution would be to exile him in one way or another, and it would be likely (and proven to be true) that he'd be unwilling to voluntary leave and give up what he lives for....if i were in his position (like entirely, psycho and all,) i wouldn't either. i'm all about accomplishing dreams, but not when you've got to act purely for the benefits of your own self-interest at the expense of an entire nation; that is morally and ethically wrong.

Dorothy Parker does rock. I really always aspired to be her, but I'm too damn loud and can't mutter for shit.
groove:
People often have a misconception about what it means to be a conservative. smile

For example, I'm not a Republican and I don't support their war... I'm a Libertarian.

Have you read Give Up Activism? What do you think of it?
edie:
thanks for posting that link! the writer made some interesting points. i have so many problems with the activist "community", i have a hard time remaining involved in long term projects because i become so disgusted with the hierarchy, hypocrisy, and elitism that exists within that certain group of people. it seems people would rather quibble over their differences than work for the greater good. i am involved in planning a series of workshops right now about sexuality in punk and activist communities because i have so many issues with the way we treat each other, and i feel like there needs to a forum to discuss the sexism, homophobia, and other problems that go on but are always overlooked.

wow sorry this got so long. thanks for the brainfood.

Do you believe that people are basically good? Why or why not?

clara:
I believe that people are basically good, but that's probably because I project my own good intentions into places they don't belong.
johnnyfive:
i think good and bad are irrelevant terms when talking about people's "basic" behavior. as b.f. skinner pointed out, all humans are directly influenced by their enviornment, born only with an inate need to "survive". i.e.: food, water, shelter. given the right enviornment, you can mold a good or bad person. the only problem is that the people setting the standards as to what good and bad are usually have other motives.
PS: Spirited Away was sooo great. Did you ever see Nausicca: The Wind of the Valley?
