Urgh! Fuck!: A thread for untamed hate and anger [PICS]

Gee, that is happening right now, Hawthorn, all over the world. Canada sure has a bit to catch up with the devastation that is in some parts, but indeed, we are certainly well on our way.

19:04 / 05.03.07

point taken. We're going to be the last place on earth with water too. joy

19:37 / 05.03.07

According to whom?

Also even if that's true, water does not 'belong' to anyone. You may think it does because it's in 'your' country, but dude, the water you once owned flowed away a long time ago. Trying to own water is like trying to own the sky!

Part of the reason the world is in this state now is because of the posturing and ownership over natural 'resources'. Water (or any other resource) is not there for us to use. It's just there and we happen to use it. Different thing.

Olulabelle, I don't believe anyone said we actually "own" the water. I don't think that is the point. However, I doubt that your argument would be welcome on Parliment Hill. If it falls on our country, I bet they will want to keep it - Great Lakes, included - polluted or otherwise.

You see, when it comes to responsiblity, someone has to own it.

I get your point, though, and I think the Indigenous People of Canada get it too. However, I think the point that Hawthorn was making is quite the same as yours.

Canada is incredibly rich in natural resources, and we have to take care of what we have.

10:32 / 06.03.07

Indeed, I didn't say we own it, but we certainly do have access to it, in scads. I agree that everyone has the right to fresh drinking water but this very fact is going to be uncomfortable in coming years if said people are desperate/armed.

I haven't backed up my facts with appropriate citation because this is the untamed anger thread in the converstaion forum. Perhaps I shouldn't have made such assumptions.

11:06 / 06.03.07

Ok well replace my above post with: I have seen news reports, read articles and seen certain documentary films that have made me very frightened for our future as a planet.

11:26 / 06.03.07

I hear you, Hawthorn. Personal responsibility is one part of it. Harper is certainly making it clear what his priorities are.

Oh, and this beauty from Mr.Hargrove:

"We're for fuel efficiency, (and) we're for Kyoto, but we're for an intelligent path to get there that doesn't disrupt our industry," Canadian Auto Workers Union president Buzz Hargrove told a Commons committee assigned to rewrite the government's clean air legislation.

"Why would we want to throw a lot of people out of work? This is not California. It's a much different environment."

Oh, it sure will be. *head...hands*

When did Buzz become such an expert on enviroments? Grrrr!

11:51 / 06.03.07

(offtopic- Hawthorn! Yay! w00t! Hawthorn handstitched my white on white Invisibles patch and then left for Canada, helloo! *waves*)

That'll do nicely for a start.

08:19 / 08.03.07

Stuart Jeffries, you are winding me up today! Your backwards article in The Guardian bemoaning the loss of fucking wrist watches and whining that mobile phones are becoming a convergence of technology. What are your arguments for old-style cameras? Using up that last bit of film outside the chemists. Balls! What is your reason why it's such a crime that people have music on their phones? Because you miss out on bloody album covers? Which isn't fucking true anyway because most people still buy CDs you utter arse.

Grow the fuck up and learn to use the technology, else piss off and listen to crappy records on crappy wind-up record players. Just stop whining at me.

ONLY NICE THINGS

09:10 / 08.03.07

I believe the article may be somewhat tongue-in-cheekm, ES.

10:54 / 08.03.07

Maybe. Still comes across as an anti-tech rant though.

10:55 / 08.03.07

...to me anyway.

I know, it's my fault. I shouldn't have read it. It had her name on it so I knew what to expect.

Ah, both head-desk ire and head-shaking "Oh deary me, the poor Tory fools" sprang to mind upon reading those two links.

Actually, I didn't read the comments beyond skimming them briefly, as it is too depressing for a sunny Monday morning to read the witterings of the easily offended (who live in the UAE in some cases), though I liked this response especially:

"To use something as special as fairies to indoctrinate this kind of lifestyle is disgusting."

Dear world,

Some of your kids are growing up queer. Fucking deal with it. Some of your kids are growing up in queer families. Fucking deal with it. Your queer children deserve as much support as any other kids. Kids in queer families deserve as much support as any other kids. One of the things they deserve is the provision of books and materials which reflect their orientation and/or family structures in a positive way, and help their het schoolmates learn not to treat them in a hostile and abusive way. Why the fuck you'd prefer to see child after child driven to nervous breakdown and suicide rather than deal with that is fucking beyond me.

No love,

MC.

Oh, please send that to the Mail, Mordant. It'd be worth it just to hear the distant sound from Northcliffe House of steam whistling out of their ears at high velocity.

Comment posted. Although I took out the swearings.

Mon Oncle Ignatius

15:19 / 12.03.07

Dammit, I posted one to the story too. Nice to see some anti-hate comments getting through, actually, so maybe the more of us who make them, the less the Colonel Blimps will be heard.

Though I suspect I'm being optimistic.

15:23 / 12.03.07

It is truly a sickening state of affairs when our children are being sexualized at so young an age, not only by cheap imported pop culture, but now by our own so-called "education" system!

Yes, because teaching about het families in no-way contains it's own set of sexual values. Yes.

Cockwits.

15:46 / 12.03.07

Listen up Asshole.

Either you better be in a coma somewhere, or dead, because I can't believe anyone - oh, but you are not just anyone, as you so frequently liked to remind me - could break the heart of a six year old, little boy.

Do you know how delighted your son was that his daddy was finally coming to be with him?

Do you realize that by not showing up or just NOT fucking calling, you are shredding your little boy's heart/self esteem/world...to bits? You promised him - you promised him a lot of things in that one glorious week where you played hero to a wide-eyed, impressionable child. He told everyone at school that his dad was coming to be with him.

He tells himself that you are busy at work...for two fucking weeks now!

He doesn't realize you don't have a job.

I am enraged. Ye,t I am helpless to make you do the right thing. You had six years to clean up and step up to the plate. At least now, my son will understand my decision to leave you. I will do my very best to heal my son from your carelessness and cruelty and we will continue on, and survive, and flourish.

And you, I'd damn you to hell but I see you are already there.

15:51 / 12.03.07

They seem not to have allowed Mordan't comment to post. Bastards! Censorship! Ah yeah, it's the Daily Mail.

16:39 / 12.03.07

Uhm, are those previous four posts about rage?

16:59 / 12.03.07

Rage the person or rage the feeling? Confused.

17:11 / 12.03.07

Ollulabelle: Rage, the feeling - as in: what the thread is about.

You know, the thing that upsets me the most about my situation, is that this idiot probably thinks he is getting back at me, and in fact he is hurting his own son more than anyone.

Truth is, I am not personally damaged at all by this. I am just disgusted and outraged at his behaviour.

17:13 / 12.03.07

Oh sorry. No not really rage. More outrage!

17:19 / 12.03.07

If you say so.

Our Lady Has Left the Building

18:41 / 12.03.07

I reckon they only let mine through because I didn't use naughty words and so they can make a show of being even handed. I sent another one addressed specifically to the woman that was writing from the UAE about being free to bring her children Christian saying I hoped for their sake any children she had were straight as it was difficult enough for a child to come to terms with being queer, but to do that in a situation where their parents were so bigotted as to tell them they were evil would be heartbreaking to deal with. Strangely that doesn't appear to have been allowed through.

Our Lady Has Left the Building

18:43 / 12.03.07

I fear for all young children - I'm so glad mine are all grown up but then I have the worry of grandchildren.

That's the Daily Mail in full effect for you, making you afraid from here to the day you die, and beyond if they can.
