There are none more exploited than those who do not realize.
Yes that is a quote from me, but how does that make me a hypocrite?

You are yet to explain how he is a hypocrite, It seems you said it in the heat of a moment without even thinking about what it meant & now you are stalling until you find a way to save your arse.
When hypocrisy is present it is easily explainable & when it is not explainable it is not present.

Alrighty then...from the past three topics, sleezebag has always made it a point to put down America. From the way it is being run to the fact that there are more posts about by Americans. If he dislikes America so much why doesn't he just boycott everything American-from the music he listens to the movies he watches. It all has AMERICA written all over!!! Based on the fact that it was made by Americans. He is using a website (made by an American), the internet (also made by an American) and yet he hates the fact that the majority of the users (who are Americans) replying to posts are biased towards America. What is wrong with Americanization? Nothing unless you are a foreigner. Maybe he should start his own website with only anti-American topics. Does that sound fair enough. Yo sleez, maybe deep down inside you really like our culture but your pride just won't permit it. Your whole profile wreaks of America from the literature to the music to your e-mail address (Yahoo, Hotmail).

If you hadn't realised I have reasons to hate America, one of them being that they are anti-communist. Maybe you being a nationlist you only see nationality, however I am an internationlist and if you check the bands I like they are either communist, anti-facist or pro-animal. When the fuck have I posted an anti-american topic? Maybe you should get a dictionary and find out what literature means, or better yet ask your parents, but they probably won't know (you being a nationalist redneck) since I never knew that Karl Marx was american, although they would probably try and claim he was anyway.

First of all, Anhnonymous,you write more an angry 15 year old then a 22 year old U.S marine.
Second the strength of a culture lies in it's ablity to tolerate dissent. I'm an American but I have major issues with the country.
Third
To Quote "...If people everywhere come to think of their own cultural resourses [The Net, hotdogs, and Silly putty] not as possessions to defend but, rather, as gifts to exchange with one another, then the great human migrations of the 21st century [immigration and international netwerkin'] could spawn a cultural renaisance..." -- Jeremy Rifkins LAtimes 7/8/01 emphasis added.
Because you refuse to become isolationist in the face of a dominering culture doesn't mean your a hypocrite.
It just means that you have to compromise in order to function in human society.I doubt highly you've removed every product from China in your house and make sure to check for Iraqi and Iranian free oil.

I never said I had any problem with chinese made products or oil from iraq. And sleez...I meant American made literature "in general". And screwy... sorry to offend you but sleez seems to me like an angry 15 year old kid, thus i have to stoop down to his level to get through to him but once again I have failed. Oh well. And one more thing...
"If you hadn't realised I have reasons to hate America, one of them being that they are anti-communist.When the fuck have I posted an anti-american topic? " Uhhh you just did smart one.:p
My name last name is NGUYEN. What on earth led you to believe that I was white? Oh I know, it's all the old American war movies depicting Marines as John Wayne types. Well you know about our history. Nationalist redneck...that's a good one.

Ah, but this isn't anti-american, if it was american it would be against America, this however is against the topics on the political bbs being totally america-centred. You expect me not to be angry? As soon as you came onto this forum you where having a go at me because of my age, which is actually irrelevant. I may not be able to vote but I sure as hell have a better idea of politics than most.

Of course I was going to go straight at you, you started the topic. Since I was a newbie that lived in the U.S.(America) I had to state my opinion on the matter. It seems that you were directing your topic at users like me. And as an American, of course I'm going to strike back. And weren't all you "oldies" "newbies" at one time. I'm sorry there was no preference of any sort when I registered. No one asked if I wanted to be a newby or not. Also I didn't bring up the age subject, screwy did. Back to the topic, since we all tend to stray away after awhile. Do you guys ever notice that? It's weired how one topic turns into two or three and then goes back to the original. Ahh...oh well maybe it's just human nature or A.D.D. Oh yeah...I think jonnyA had it right: "I'd blame it on the fact that american users outnumber everyone else."

Who are you talking to now, Me or him? I use an American email server True but culture dose not enter that, email is just a product, That's like saying if you have a Thai made blender you must like Bangkok & underage prostitutes.
As for music in my Profile:

As for the movies:

:Joint effort American/English/Greek.

I'm getting real tired off This topic. We Have Our right to express our opinions as much as you do. Just becuase we're american doesn't mean we shouldn't talk about america. If you want to talk about something else, then DO IT, and if no one responds then you can't blame some one for having seperate intrests than your own. This whole anti-american feeling is really hypocritical. You act as the victim, badgerd by the American overlord, but in fact your goverments have done the same thing we have. We're just people, just like you and blaming us for what american coorperations do is not only wrong but hypocritical in most cases, considering your corperations do the same!

OF course it is, your last post was all down the wrong road because you were talking about you posting on this topic, you originally annoyed me on a different topic, which is what I was referring to.

Acually you Called people newbies becuase they express their opinons. Their opinons happen to be relivant to americans, and your trying to stop them from expressing what they want by calling them newbies, which I at least consider to be a attempt at provocation.
And my other point.
Here this is a quote from you
"If you hadn't realised I have reasons to hate America, one of them being that they are anti-communist"
Here, your blaming me, all americans for being anti communist. Well maybe some of us are, maybe some arn't but your discriminating agaist us, and then you go back and complain about how americans discriminate. Your claims are hypocritical, You say that you own no corperations, well neither do I, yet you still claim that all americans are overbaring. I could make the same claim about you for your countries corperations, But I don't because that would be hypocritical.
Here's a quote from you claimed Us as overbearing.
"...I never knew that Karl Marx was american, although they would probably try and claim he was anyway."

Trash: American English is English.
Firstly, if you look in the Oxford dictionary, you will find both colour and color. Probably also with other words, but I can't remember off hand.
Secondly, using a completely different word is also still English. Here is just one example, and I am sure there are many more.
In England, they use the word lorry instead of truck. I've always heard truck in Australia, and never lorry. Does this mean we, in Australia, don't speak English?
What is English English anyway? Oxford English I assume. In which case, if you went to the north, such as Manchester or Liverpool, or even to the Eastend of London, you'd here a different dialect with some words similar, and some different. Not just different accents.
Does that mean they don't speak English in those parts of England? It's beginning to sound absurd. Just as many other languages (such as French and German) have regional dialects, so too with English.
Of course Americans speak English.
I think you have a real complex about Americans, even more than me. That's saying something.

No I didn't, I blamed the rise in american topics on the influx of newbies, I didn't call people who expressed themselves newbies.
And my other point.
Here this is a quote from you
"If you hadn't realised I have reasons to hate America, one of them being that they are anti-communist"
Here, your blaming me, all americans for being anti communist.
I didn't say Americans are anti-communism, I said that AMERICA is anti-communist.
Here's a quote from you claimed Us as overbearing.
"...I never knew that Karl Marx was american, although they would probably try and claim he was anyway."
I never defined who "they" are, you are just assuming I meant all americans.

AP = Here, your blaming me, all americans for being anti communist.S =I didn't say Americans are anti-communism,
I said that AMERICA is anti-communist.
Ok
Now I'm off work and your all in big...big trouble
First of all Anhnonymous
"Screwy"?
Righhhhhhht.
Good one. You are a now master of wit and insult.
To the quote above from AP,
uhh obviously when someone says American they're not refering to every american, It's like saying Texas voted for bush... Well not EVERYone in Texas did. Give that brain of yours some time to think before you hit that post button.
Second Some of us americans really got to stop getting our panties in a bind when someone points out that our culture is overbearing...The French have the same problem with thinking they're king-shit and we all know everyone's opinion of the french. right?
good.
Now lets get to some real debate.

A good thing about all the newbies is that a few of them are leftist, which is nice, but I did like a one-man war before, ah well.
