    simple logic here. if you donate to charities you are factually and logically accepting the status quo (that the global system must cause poverty). you are not fixing the problem; you are contributing to it in an attempt to get a delusional/hypocritical rush of morality which is in fact immorality.

    People respond to your posts- why should they not respond to PF's?

    At least I don't say all my posts are "factually and logically" correct.

    This logic brought to you by The Shining Path, who blew up soup kitchen organizers because they prevented society from fully collapsing and therefore "supported" the government and the status quo.

    Depends. I'd say donating donuts to a diabetic is immoral.

    Did you hate them when Bosh was in Toronto, James in Cleveland, and the Thundah in Seattle?

    Hey, this ain't college football- show some perspective on life.

    step 1: enlighten yourself using the internet
    step 2: enlighten others (i am at this stage but it is proving very difficult, as seen in this thread)
    step 3: plan
    step 4: revolution comes into action

    as i said reforms wont work because its impossible to trust people. you cant sacrifice yourself because if you do, other people might not follow, and you will just end up last in the same system that you are fighting to change. that is why revolution is the only way. it has to 'just happen' with a lot of people.

    To be fair, I had no idea who Bosh was other than when he was in the Ice Age Movies. LeBron, couldn't care less about his time in Cleveland or "The Decision" to Miami, but he certainly didn't owe them anything to stay there forever. Now, while he's one of the two bet players on the planet, he's just the benefactor of the hype machine. Never called for a foul, always gets the foul. And it's taken me 3+ years to care about the Thunder. In Seattle, they were invisible.

    this is what i am talking about. its due to capitalism that they turned out like that. they used to be humble in those teams (well lebron was humble before high school, but at least he was more humble than now when on cleveland). had my society existed, they would have used their talent to entertain people and thats it... they would not be egotistical show offs with 100 million dollar advertising contracts.
