Dit stuk kreeg ik van een vriend van mij. Een vriend van hem heeft het geschreven > was wel benieuwd wat de gemiddelde aanwezige hier er van vind
 /edit: excuses voor de typefout in de topic titel  The definition of life Maybe you will be happy believing your silly little lies. The stupid things you come up with. The useless things you do. But you shall not know why. Your happiness will be meaningless. Your life hollow and your joy pointless. I once heard of a speaker for the dead but such I shall not be. I shall be a speaker for the living. Not as such shall I speak for the living such as for those who are truly alive but I shall be a speaker for those of us who as yet have been denied the privilege to know what it means to breathe what it means to see or hear. Those of us that have been denied the understanding of love. Those of us that know only hatred in their tormenting solitude. As such I shall tell u my tale, my side of the story. Hear me ow mankind for the smell of your sins has risen up to me. I see what you hide and what was not suppose to be seen. Let me be your judge. Hear me and listen, not to my wisdom for I have no such thing. But listen to what I have seen, to my believes and find the truth such as I found. I was born not out of love and not because I was wanted. Simply only I was born out of necessity. I am a creature to who love is unknown I only know hate. My name is Legion for I am many and the message that I send to the world is an accusing one. A message of blame. For it is you that is to be blamed for the evil in this world. Humans caused the pain, the misery. Death and the loss. The loss of that very humanity. Or are the horrific acts of violence and brutal murder of millions the very way to define humanity? You? All of you. Is it the definition of life? Your life. Your will to plunder, rape and murder. Not only do you steal in unprecedented numbers. Not only do you murder on a scale not yet seen before. You lie about it. As you lie about everything. You silence it. You ignore it. And your ignorance is your bliss. In hypocrisy do you relish and salvage your souls. You wash your hands in the mucky blood of those not so lucky to be born on your soil. As my eyes saw all this it made me think and wonder. But I, like many others, found out that there was no answer, no outcome to the question. And what is the question? Is the question, “Why?” Is the question, “How can we stop it?” Those were my first guesses. But then I found out that that is not the thing a human mind searches for. The question that is on all our minds, if at all, is, “How can we justify all that?” How can you relate to those human beings, victims and perpetrators alike, who were slaughtered, humiliated, tortured, robed, dehumanized and ruled over only to there demise? Is this really what you are? Are human beings evil to the core? The excuse of “Yeah, but that was a long time ago.” no longer stands for it is still happening today. The excuse of “Yeah, but those are evil people.” no longer stands, for those who did it were mostly normal human beings like you and your neighbour. Your colleague. Kings and beggars. Cops and criminals. You are all the same, all alike and all to blame. So how would one like me find an answer if any is there? How would I explain? I set aside a human treat. I dared to think out side the box. I bring you an inhuman point of view. A way of thinking by which nothing is holy. A way of thinking so filled with danger and the prospect of impeccable hatred that most of us dare not think it. I found the truth being an awful story no one likes to hear. I found humanity being a disease. The pest and plague of this world. But how did humanity become this way? Ever since you lost your god in the first world war, you have been searching and found new ones. It doesn’t take much in this world to become a hero and the burdens for those at the top have become easy ones to bear. You listen to those keen enough to know what you want to hear. Those who speak of a glorious future, where everyone will share in the joy of peace and harmony. The world is being lead in blindness. And those who lead it are as blind as the rest. Seeking only there own glory, there own fortune. Ow, yes you dream of a great future. Of harmony and peace. But most of all you desire power. Your blindness leaves you ignorant for the pain and misery of others. Little demonstration. I shall now illustrate the sick illusion that has befallen great parts of humanity. I saw a movie ones. A beautiful demonstration of courage and heroism. It was called ‘Black Hawk Down’. It is a movie based on the true story of the combats of the American intervention in Somalia. A true story of American soldiers in the Battle of Mogadishu trying to capture two Somalian warlords. In short the movie glorifies the Americans for being such heroes even thou the odds where against them. I believe to remember that 19 of those poor American soldiers died in that action, by the hands of evil terrorist. At least so claims the movie. But what made this movie so special for me is a little notification at the end of it. It stated that over 1000 somalians died in that one action. Now, blame me for being such a blasphemes heathen, but shouldn’t the movie be about the heroic somalians who defended there ground against a strong American presence which invaded there country in the first place? No. Remember. You are all equals. All alike. All to blame. The lie that resides in this movie is the glorification of the Americans, not the neglect of showing the bravery of the other side. The movie portraits them as being heroes other then showing them for what they are. Human beings on a killing spree, killing there fellow humans. The movie dictates the difference between good and evil. It decieves the viewer into thinking of one thing as good and another as bad, leaving you barely enough space to make up your own mind. “But", you’ll say, for I know the way your minds work, “that doesn’t affect me. Maybe some will be fooled, but not me.” Well if you think that, then let me show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. The way of life in the west is dictated by those most powerful. And thanks to a brilliant system which divides and defines power, power goes to those with the most money. But an institution, like money, is nothing if it is not enforced by another institution. Money mainly resides in the hands of big corporations and industries. But the power of it would be nothing if it would not have been uphold by law, which is in turn uphold by the government who in there turn receive money from the corporations. Trough taxes the government receives what the rich and famous have robed from the poor. Of course the poor get back big parts of this money, either trough legal ways or by simply bystealing it, but it is only a fraction of the enormous amount of power that is wielded by the rich because its spread over a far larger amount of people. Money is an institution so powerful that most would sell there own mother to obtain it. If you would open your eyes, you would be surprised about the monstrous and degrading things that people do only for money. If you are rich enough people will even think your way. Act your way. Live your way. You can dictate them how to dress, what to eat and which soda tastes the best. You can even tell them who to love and who to hate.... |

Is die (Engelse?) vriend een alto of gothic. Hoe dan ook, soms gaat-ie wel erg kort door de bocht en de hele toon van de tekst kan ook wat kalmer.

weet niet wat ie is; hij lijkt mij vooral erg depressief
  vond zelf dat hij alles wel heel erg negatief benaderde, maar dat ie ook een paar punten had (zoals dat stuk over macht...). maar hij gaat er echt vanuit dat de mens in principe slecht is, en dat vind ik altijd zo'n pessimistisch standpunt waar je nix mee kunt... en hij schrijft alsof hij zelf boven de mens staat, en dat vind ik op zich al een foute benadering. hij maakt in principe de fout die hij anderen verwijt... |

Juist ja....
Op zich vind ik dat de schrijver een aantal punten aanhaalt, die grotendeels tot de waarheid behoren en zeker van toepassing zijn op de mensheid. Echter probeert hij alles zo leuk te verwoorden, dat hij uiteindelijk zijn belangrijke gedachtes verzuipt in een zee van bullshit, wat zeer betreurenswaardig is. Ook het taalgebruik is niet echt om van te genieten. Het voorbeeld van Black Hawk Down is ook niet helemaal waar en dat hij zo even verteld hoe de wereld nou 'echt' in elkaar zit...amusant. Basisgedachte is mooi, uitwerking is bagger.

Verder kan ik me wel vinden in de kern van het stukje, maar alsjeblieft, moest dat nou allemaal zo "dramaqueen"-stijl? |

Beetje vol met "I" "me" "my", of stel ik me aan?
Erg onleesbaar, in combinatie met de spelfouten, vind ik. |
