Notes on Whats wrong with our current society

OK let's just get started. I'm not gonna tell you a pretty story about morals or a personal story about me. Nope, ill just cut to the chase and ask you, what's wrong with our current society?

One thing we're too selfish. Think when is the last time you haven't thought of self benefit only? Even subconsciously?

Two we are too dependant on technology. I mean when is the last time you didn't use your phone or update your Twitter/Facebook?

Three we expect the government to fix our problems when were the ones who have the power and our power kind of weakens our presidents power.

Four our pop culture is always bombarding us with what should be good or bad distorting the truth.

Five we live in a consumerist society. we buy useless things and provide useless services that aren't necessary.

So basically wrapping it all up we live in a society which praises selfish desires and It's been like that since erm the 1920's right?

This isn't just a national problem It's international. what do the 99% want jobs? yeah as if there weren't jobs there are but why study for a job that you know won't get you a job?

Its just people tend to blame others for they're own mistakes. "i was late to my job because I was hung over" you got fired, but you blame the boss the president the government not yourself. "the bank is going bankrupt" but not because you carelessly used money right, its congress?

see our leaders don't have much power they've become the modern scapegoats of Society and this is because people are so selfish and they can't blame themselves so they blame anyone who has "power" but the selfishness needs to stop and this little flaw if fixed can basically end all our problems.

I'm not even going to go in depth with that but a lot can change just with one trait being fixed all over the world.

This society is fed on selfishness and blaming others, keeping all of its people stuck in a very child like state don't you agree? What makes an adult is taking the responsibility and caring for others not just yourself. The worst part of it is most adults act exactly the opposite. Things need to change and it's about time we all grew up and faced our problems together because one person can't change a reluctant

Notes on the White Girls, Arizona Racism video on youtube

The video was not racist. (if you want to know why i say this read it all the way through im not a racist prick just here me out.)
well they started off saying stuff about the new Arizona law that passed but in reality they were talking more about stereotypes rather than the law. Its not really racist to talk about Mexicans its more like stereotypes and I'm pretty sure a Honduran or Argentinian would go "eh OK....so what?" Racism is talking about a WHOLE race of people not just illegal Mexicans who are not at all a single race they never talked about Mexicans from Mexico but it really doesn't matter hate is hate but the sad thing is that the girls are overly nationalists when in reality it is the state that is doing the law not the USA gov. The thing is if you are to upload a video on YouTube about things that are serious and bring stereotypes and ignorance to the table your argument is automatically invalid. Mexicans don't have kids like crazy poor people in general do and since most immigrants are poor because of the strict and unfair work they are forced to preform. Like i stated in an speech before people need someone to blame they're problems too and if its not the president then well how about Mexicans? also id like to note that the girls in the video used violence, stereotypes and the words retard as freely as they said "like". I understand that illegal immigrants are a problem but the easy solution was the dream act which didn't pass... the thing is that if they weren't so hard in the process of naturalization we wouldn't have this problem and the other thing whats gonna happen to all the kids who came here as a young kid and have adapted to American culture and rarely speak Spanish are you just gonna throw em back in Mexico just because of they're parents? That's unfair and basically murder because how are you going to survive and escape the narcos or people who kidnap and kill English speakers assuming they can put a price on they're heads and end up killing the person anyway? You tell me that! If they came here they came because they didn't have luck there and what is America if they cant access the American dream because of an unjust closed minded society? The girls said that "We were here first" but if you go back in history wasn't it all you who settled in the west the people who drove off natives and Mexicans for selfish reasons? Remember the days of the wild west? Cowboys vs. Indians? Yeah. Whats funny though is they said that "Cortez should have finished what he started shoot those mother f***ers" this statement is a show of they're ignorance because Cortez and his fellow Spanish interbreed with the natives and made basically what is now the mestizo "race" in Mexico the majority of what Mexicans are. later she stated that "she would shoot an immigrant[...] I'm just saying." right if you just say you want to kill the president you will be tried for treason and could lose your life... and the ultimately worst thing they said was "f*** your Jesus" that really was plane ignorance to say that people have a separate Jesus. Just see the video if you want here only for your better judgement. I heard there was an apology video too and I'm a really forgiving guy but that was too far there is no way you can forgive someone for that much hate in a video they can make a million "Forgive us" videos and in the end the outcome is the same like anonymous said "We do not forgive we do not forget" and i stand at that point. Hate will never solve a problem and responding with hate is just as stupid as the original video. All those video responses threatening, cussing and saying hateful things to these girls is just as ignorant as what they did even if they deserve it. What you should learn from this video is to not be hateful or ignorant back to someone who is racist or stereotyping. This video wasn't Racist mainly because the definition of racism is a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races  determine cultural or individualachievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others... and
