    Superman is Communist propaganda.

    Superman is, without doubt, Communist propaganda. It's even easy to understand without much Communist knowledge. I'll start with something simple.

    The Man of Steel. That's Superman, as I'm sure you all know. However, Stalin is also the Man of Steel. When translated into English, that is what Stalin means. Stalin always tried to create a god-like image of himself, what better than to become a superhero?
    On a particularly similar note, Superman can hear or see anything and everything going on. He has super hearing and xray vision. This sounds very much like Big Brother. 1984, where Big Brother is from, is based upon Communist/Stalinist Russia.

    Not only does Superman parallel Stalin on a 'power' level, they both go by the same name.

    Now, Superman has an iconic red cape and logo. Communism is red. Now it seems a very loose link, however the most recognisable thing about Superman, beyond his S logo, is his red cape.

    Communism is about socialism. Communism is about businesses being run by the workers, and the arch nemesis of communism would probably be capitalism. The exact opposite, businesses are run by the bosses, under whom come the workers. The arch nemesis of Superman is a capitalist corporation and it's owner, Lex Luthor.
    Last, and quite possibly least, but entirely related to the above point. Money in America is green, it's a major point and it's quite well known. Kyrptonite is green, and that is quite well known too. Supermans main weakness being kryptonite, Communism having only problems when money is involved or even jealousy, which would become a problem for a Communist way of life.

     

    So, to sum it up, Superman is Communist propaganda. This is taken so far that at one point they even made a Communist Superman (The Red Son) so as to tell the story without making it too obvious.

    A response from Ric

    That or super-man was just a comic book character promoting desired traits such as honestly, courage, nobleness, heroism and the colours of both his costume and one weakness. simply bright enough to keep the attention of younger viewers until they could comprehend the fact that super-man is a super-hero... and as fr steel.. being the strongest metal around at the time. Why would an american company promote communism? By which i'm talking about Marvel ofc!

    If you look hard enough you could say spider-man promotes communism in just the same way.. his arch nemisis is KingPin also a capitalist dictator. His suit is red.. with a logo! He helps good and bad peoples simply seeing them as "in need" - communism in theory has the same practice that we will all b financially equal. And peter parkers boss of the daily bugle, and his constant grief was peter parker.. aka the everyman trying to battle with capitlism.. spider-man was the "god" figure doing it at a much grander level.. like stalin... Good effort to blacken the name of one of the justice league of americas most formidable members tho!

    Surprise Cake

    I don't really want to just copy out chat logs, or links to bash.org all the time. However, this is possibly the most awesome idea ever to grace the world.
    I shall paraphrase, to remove the crap.
    • Prepare ingredients
    • Take rohypnol or GHB
    • Bake cake
    • Fall asleep
    • Wake up
    • SURPRISE CAKE!!!

    Needless to say, this is very high on my to-do list. I guess right behind finding the roofies.

    From the apparent conversation at http://www.bash.org/?738918.

    Free Tibet!

    Well, sorry for the misleading title, as I'm not so much saying "Free Tibet", as "Shut up you bloody hippys". I'll start this off by making a mention of the site www.freetibet.org. This site seems to be somewhat official in terms of the Tibetan freedom movement. Instead of explaining the first problem, I will just link you to their ANTI GOOGLE page. Oh yes, ladies and gentlemen, you read that correctly. They have an anti Google page.
     
    Point numero dos is the more important point. Tibet is a 'country' or region or whatever they want to be called, which is controlled, ran and basically owned by China. It has been for hundreds of years, and with some uncertainty between about 1900 and 1950 where they say they were independant. Now when was the last time you heard of a country being invaded by complaining? Did Hitler send 10 guys to poland with signs saying "Give me your country please. -Love Adolfie"? Well, maybe he did, but he sent in an army too, and it was the army which took the control. Now I'm not saying that Tibet needs to take over Europe or... you know... kill some Jews. However, if you're not gonna get yourself an army together and invade a country then shut the hell up, noones going to give you it for free. They didn't steal your milk money so you can go see the teacher. Hell, if everyone followed Tibets ideas, there would be no war. Some guy (like Napolean for example) would 'invade' your country then you just say "Nice, but can we have it back?" and bingo, as if it never happened.
     
    So, in short, what I'm trying to say is... bloody hippys.
     
     
    Family Guy had the right idea... "Free Tibet? I'll take it!---Hello, is that China? Yes, I have something that you may be interested in, but it'll cost you..Yes, all the tea!" THE END.

    An autobiographical account

    Now, this is a story all about how
    My life got flipped-turned upside down
    And I'd like to take a minute
    Just sit right there
    I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel Air

    In west Philadelphia born and raised
    On the playground was where I spent most of my days
    Chillin out maxin relaxin all cool
    And all shootin some b-ball outside of school
    When a couple of guys
    Who were up to no good
    Startin makin trouble in my neighborhood
    I got in one lil fight and my mom got scared
    She said "You're movin with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air"

    I begged and pleaded with her day after day
    But she packed my suite case and send me on my way
    She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket.
    I put my walkman on and said, "I might as well kick it".

    First class, yo this is bad
    Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass.
    Is this what the people of Bel Air Living like?
    Hmmmmm this might be alright.

    But wait I hear the pricey booze, wine all that
    Is Bel Air the type of place they send this cool cat?
    I don't think so
    I'll see when I get there
    I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel Air

    Well, the plane landed and when I came out
    There was a dude who looked like a cop and yelled my name out
    I ain't trying to get arrested
    I just got here
    I sprang with the quickness like lightning, disappeared

    I whistled for a cab and when it came near
    The license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror
    If anything I can say this cab is rare
    But I thought "Now forget it. Yo home to Bel Air"

    I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
    And I yelled to the cabbie "Yo homes smell ya later"
    I looked at my kingdom
    I was finally there
    To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Air

     

    And thats exactly what happened to me yesterday.
    Go read my Myspace or my Facebook if you don't believe me!


    The ol' chicken and the egg debate...

    It's been pondered by generations from here back to the spawn of humanity. Well, I can only guess that chickens and eggs were around before humans, because otherwise they wouldn't have really wondered, someone would have made a note.."New rugby ball shaped object found on farm, today. Experts say that when fried, makes a lovely addition to a full English breakfast.", or whatever.

    So I'm here to answer the question and sort the world out once and for all. Lets look at it from a logical point of view. If, for example, the chicken was first. It would have had to come from somewhere. Since all birds lay eggs, it would have had to come from an egg to be a bird. Right so the egg came first, but what layed the egg? Well, of course a dinosaur laid the first egg. Thats simple, dinosaurs with their big teeth and funny little arms (In the case of a T-Rex) came before chickens, and laid eggs. Theres the answer, the egg came first.

    Now it becomes 'What came first, the dinosaur or the egg?'. This changes things a lot, dinosaurs are lizards or reptiles or the like and while most of them do lay eggs, not all of them do. You see where this is going, don't you? Well, no, you don't.

    Dinosaurs are cool. Dinosaurs kick ass. Dinosaurs take no shit from anyone. Dinosaurs don't get shit from lions or tigers or whales or even Wales. Eggs taste good, they can't fight, they can't eat, they can't destroy buildings (Like Godzilla). Who gives a toss about eggs, unless you're hungry. Eggs are't gonna scare you, dinosaurs are. So whether the chicken or the egg came first, noone really cares...dinosaurs just overshadow the situation.

     

    P.S. It's just a paradoxial dilemma about causality and the like. For a real answer, look to evolution, a chicken-like-freak laid an egg which had a chicken in, and then they didn't mutate from there because chickens are so good at what they do (get eaten and lay eggs). Bloody philosophers.

    I have to memorise this (and another one) for tomorrow!

    Explain the distinction between law and morals and consider the importance of the connection.

     

    To distinguish between law and morals it is first necessary to establish the contents of each and compare the two to identify both the similarities and differences.

     

    Law is made up of legal rules, in other words rules laid down in a formal established legal system and contained in substantive law.

    Morals on the other hand, can be defined as rules which are shared by a section of society and which indicate or define what that society believes to be right or wrong.

     

    Whilst there is an obvious overlap between legal rules and moral rules, no doubt due to the fact that both find their origins in many cases in religion, particularly the Christian church, there are also many differences. The religious influence is found in numerous laws, from common law rules on murder to the Government’s attempt to prohibit the promotion of homosexuality in schools through the now repealed s28 of the Local Government Act 1988.

     

    This overlap was commented on by Salmon in his theory of Interlocking Circles, which recognised that some conduct is immoral, some illegal and some both immoral and illegal.

     

    Both moral and legal rules will change over time. In the UK legal changes tend to lag behind moral views, so for example it was 1991 before rape within marriage became a criminal offence, following the House of Lord’s decision in R v R, although the right of a husband to sexual intercourse has not been recognised morally for some time prior to that. It is however possible that a change in the law can sometimes bring about a moral change. For example, studies have shown that when the use of certain drugs became illegal, social attitudes to drug addiction also changed.


    The distinctions between law and morals are often more apparent. These can be discerned from a number of sources, the first being in their creation. Legal rules have a formal creation process, usually through an Act of Parliament or by the use of rules of judicial precedent. Moral rules find their source in religious beliefs or other sociological values. Legal rules must be obeyed and if broken, formal sanctions are imposed such as imprisonment, fine or payment of compensation. If moral rules are broken then the wrong doer may be subjected to the disapproval of other members of that section of society. Legal rules must be obeyed by everyone no matter what, moral rules do not have the force of law, nor do they tend to have universal application. As Durkheim noted, it is almost impossible to define a set of moral values shared by everyone. This is apparent today in different attitude of sectors of society to issues such as blood sports, euthanasia and homosexuality.

     

     So whilst there are undeniable distinctions between law and morals, it is also clear that they are connected in many ways. The relationship between law and morality has been debated a number of times and is most famously referred to as Hart-Devlin debate, but is more correctly referred to as the Libertarian v Authoritarian approach.

     

    The libertarian approach is that law should not be used to uphold moral values; the freedom of the individual is paramount. Hard argued that using law to uphold moral values was unnecessary, undesirable and morally unacceptable. He echoed the view of John Stuart Mill who said that rather than society imposing, through law, its own ideas of morality, individuals should be free to choose their own conduct so long as they did not harm anyone else. This view can be seen in the case of Gillick v West Norfolk and Wisbech AHA where it was held that a doctor could prescribe contraceptives to girls under the age of 16 without their parents consent.

     

    The Authoritarian view, expounded by Lord Devlin, argues that some form of common morality is necessary to keep society together and law should uphold that morality. Lord Devlin’s approach can be seen in the case of R v Brown where controversially the House of Lords rules that in the case of offences against a person, there are some assaults to which it is impossible to consent. In that case the assaults in question were sado-masochistic sexual acts between homosexual men. The view that the law has a role in upholding moral values can be seen by the statement of Lord Lowry in that case “Sado-masochistic homosexual activities cannot be conducive to the enhancement or enjoyment of family life or conducive to the welfare of society.”

     

    The Hart-Devlin debate took place in the 1950’s in the context of The Wolfenden Report which recommended that homosexuality be legalised. More recently the debate has raged in areas such as genetic research. The Warnock Committee attempted to reach a balance between libertarian and authoritarian approaches in its report which led to the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act 1990. It has been recognised that there is no clear answer, in practice legislators have to treat an uneasy path between issues of law and morality. Law changes to reflect changing moral views of society, recently seen in the debate of the decriminalisation of cannabis and in the law relating to euthanasia. Less frequently, as discussed earlier, law can also drive changes in morality. It is clear that despite the distinctions, law and morality appear to be inextricably connected in English law.

    I feel I must apologise.

    I realise, that most of you havn't seen any new posts for well over 6 months. This is partly due to the fact that I forgot about this 'space', and partly due to the fact that I am indeed a lazy shit.

    ♪ Cruising

    I feel the breeze, my top is down, and all I do is ride around
    and where I go I just don't care a place to chill, to get away.
    I take it day by day, no work or play, nowhere to stay,
    and I just need to clear my mind to find my role space in time.

    I'm just cruising, and I wonder if I ever find my way.
    I'm just cruising, down this highway of life,
    and I'm looking for a place where I can hide away.
    Just cruising, just cruising.

    Two miles now I take it slow, I'm in my flow so I can find the fields of joy,
    where I life is peaceful, where I can safely rest my soul.
    The sun is glowin' winds keep blowin', I'm still growin'
    and I try to do the best I can, go down this road is there a plan.

    I'm just cruising, just cruising, just cruising,
    and I wonder if I ever find my way
    I'm just cruising down this highway of life
    and I'm looking for a place where I can hide away.

    I'm just cruising, just cruising, just cruising
    and I wonder if I ever find my way
    I'm just cruising down this highway of life
    and I'm looking for a place where I can hide away.

    Harry Potter

    You may or may not be aware but a new Harry Potter book was released to the screaming hoards of idiots, today.
    By idiots, I obviously mean adoring fans, especially the adults who get their own adult design covers. Next we need some Beano covers for Playboy mags, and the world will be a better place.
     
    Also, as you may or may not know, I already gave away who died, oops, I wont type it again so you will have to scroll down 2 posts and click the image yourself.
     
    The kids now 17, he hasn't got laid, and from what I believe, he won't get laid.
    Yes, he may be a big abnoxious moron, who waves a stick around and tries to save people from a mess hes put them in himself, but he could still screw that cocktease hes been friends with for years.
     
    I mean seriously, the evil guy is after him no amount of saving people will make up for the fact that if he just went the hell away, everyone else would be safe.
    It's like that guy on ET, he gets annoyed when the government ruin his house beacuse hes kept an alien there, they only wanted the stupid creature, so give them ET and you're okay. All the people at the school should just give Volde...OOPS I CANT SAY HIS NAME CAN I OOPS..give Harry to Voldefag, all wrapped up with a bow on, and then you will, once again, be safe from strange evil murdering psychos.
     
    Back to the topic of Harry, hes a 17 year old lad, he hasn't ever gotten drunk, he hasn't even gotten laid, I'de be surprised if hes even kissed a girl, or seen one naked, even in pornography.
    This kid is a complete loser, and yet 0000's of you get excited by him and want to follow his everymovement, this totally makes sense to me
     
     
    Edit:
    I have been informed that he actually has been kissed and actually had a girlfriend, but once you realise she was called Cho Chang, I think we can all get past this little error of mine and back to the realisation that Harry Potter is a bit of a 'drop kick' (In the words of Mr. AliStairs), back to laughing at the name Cho Chang.
    Another adition to my edit here, I just came into the knowledge that he only kissed this girl after he watched her boyfriend die, now come on, thats not the kind guy you want to take home to the parents is it?
