Hi all. Long time lurker.
Mods if possible please move to the Social Issues board if you see fit.
I wish I was posting under better circumstances, however my post follows a deep anger I'm feeling due to a news reel post on my Facebook wall. Yes I
know Facebook is bad etc
So this appeared -
On my wall and I have
literally flipped. I'm not prone to replying to such posts, but it's getting ridiculous.
My reply was as follows.
Hmm. So I find a video edited in such a way that "attempts" to be controversial - I say attempts as anyone with an ounce of intelligence can see the
cut of the footage is not half biased. For every video showing this kind of snip, I can match with another showing (Insert religion here) doing
exactly the same. But so long as narrow minded snips are posting and dwelling on cack like this (and I agree it works both ways) the real problems
with this country are getting away Scott-free. It's the politicians/bankers that folks should be directing their anger at.
Sorry to say, but the bloke in the video, Mr Page, and you so far, are merely sheep - riding the bandwagon for reasons unbeknown to me. But carry on,
while this country is slowly snipped up the snip by not only the Tories, but every snip of a politician. What this country needs is a revolution of
sorts, but a revolution which includes everyone - regardless of religion/colour/dick size. This is 2014, I urge you to keep up, or be left behind*
*this is of course my opinion, and you are entitled to yours. This is Britain where we can speak freely - let's keep it that way.
As I said in my reply, we are all entitled to our own opinions.
However I ask ATS - Please reassure me that this glorious country is worth sticking with. If not, then count me out.
