Walk like an Egyptian: Saudi Arabia and China revolutions just around the corner

  1. or maybe because older people in western societies rape the young as hard as they can, one reason they have gained so much power over the young even though they are nasty zombies is because they make up a greater portion of the voters


    ... by the western societies (directly/indirectly).

  3. SAUDI.. no way.. u recall in the 1st gulf war... their youth. airforce pilots.

    80% of them reported sick. lol.. they are too cosy .. no one will revolt

    u know who should revolt in the middle east. .all the Immigrant workers. .they are like more than 50% of the population in many places.. qatar.. UAE.. saudi. ha ha.. take over the damn place . thatwill be fun..

    also. china.. forget it.. TIANEMAN square. failed becuase. the yuppie youth are only a few % of the country.. the real china strength is in the rural. population.. CHINA IS VERY WELL MANAGED given the population they have.

    are you aware that in CHINA, u need a visa to live and work in the BIG CITIES. like SHANGHAI.. etc.. i dont think there is any such system anywhere else in the world..

    no wonder in India. the cities are in ruin of overcrowding...

  4. You know things are fucked when repressive, economically illiterate, unpopular dictators are the West's allies in the region. WTF is up with that? Not only is it grossly immoral, it is strategically very damaging in the long-run. It will take generations to repair the moral damage caused by such evil associations, that and Bush means that no Arab will trust the west for 100 years.

  5. I was going to post about the same thing. You have to have been in Egypt and Saudi to appreciate the difference. Nothing works in Egypt. It is a total mess and has been for decades. In Saudi, everything is modern, efficient, up todate, etc except the system of government. But the actual saudis, while frustrated over the lack of opportunity due to everything being wired for the royal family, are too spoiled to revolt.

    As for the immigrant workers in the gulf states, they would be shot down like rabid dogs and they know it. Same for the chinese.

    olias

    You make it sound like it was so easy to know what to do with Egypt. Sometimes you get into bed with unsavory characters as the lesser of two evils.

  7. That would be fun, because all of them would get mass murdered and then a new series of cheap workers would be imported into those countries

    Let's not forget, this is the 21st century, the number of humans on this shitty planet is over 6,000,000,000 and growing, making human life one of the cheapest shit ever, and the cheapest of all human lives is that of old people

    Old people are grumpy useless nasty shit, their bodies and brains are fucking dysfunctional, they can't think properly, their minds are clogged with shit, and their appearance is so nasty even a horny donkey that has been given Viagra can't fuck them. And yet they have the right to vote, to vote for people who will tax the young, so the young can work and support their consumption of the limited resources on this planet

    Laws should be passed saying that anyone over 60 who suffers from any illness and does not have the money to pay for the treatment shall be put to death by hospital personnel. Of coarse she has the right to not go to a medical center if she does not want to, thus stay home and suffer the illness or die as a result of it. And if she doesn't have enough money for a grave, her pathetic body will be shredded to pieces after her death and used as fertilizer.

  8. Thankfully, the doctrine you put forth about dealing with elderly that have no way to pay for treatment is something that will never happen. You lack humanity & should be ashamed of yourself.

  9. Actually getting rid of old fag hags who have lived more than their share of life will decrease the chances of serious wars around the world, cause it will give the young room to breathe, the young won't have to split the limited resources with old asses.

    I don't lack it, there's no reason to falsely glorify humanity, in a world so big, human existence is worthless, every aspect of it, its life and its death

  10. So you prefer to empty, inhuman stillness of outer space to Mozart?

    Can the young not learn to temper their chemically-based passion with the wisdom of the mature? To transcend the genetically prescribed, play-mate-toil cycle, requires a higher understanding. Would you rather be born a wild dog living in the wild, far from humans? The natural dog lives in small packs. Only the alpha pair mate. All adults hunt themselves to a state of poor health to feed the young of the pack. No one makes them a slave to the alpha pair, it is just their genetics.

    From what I can see in Florida, those who have been retired more than 10 years ago do not live so much better than the miserable, inhumane life you would wish for them. Does retiring at 65 with 50K in the bank so that they can witness the relative extravagance of the Jamaican immigrants who moved in across the street really sound like stealing resources from the young?

    I cannot condemn you for your viewpoint. In a more poorer society, perhaps we could not afford to how sympathy and humanity. Thankfully it is not our world. It is too dark to be true.

    It is certainly a basic model in human economics that the young with vitality, sharpness of mind, lack of attachment, and lack of position/ownership have their opportunities molded to suit the needs of the economy as seen by the older who, on average, are more passive, dull-witted, entangled, but possessing station/wealth.

    The solution is individual opportunity. There are certainly economies of the modern world where this is quite exploitative, but socialism/revolution/workers-taking-for-themselves, does not give the individual the opportunity to make the most of their lives. Quite the opposite. Leveling of society equalizes opportunity only by destroying it. There is a certain obvious desirability to be in a zero unemployment environment, until the reality that one is really a slave to a less definable master sinks in.

    No, revolution is not the solution. Barring cases of extreme exploitation, inflation is a strong tool to entice those with station/wealth to empower the youth to the betterment of all. The current regime of low inflation, low interest rates, and low risk tolerance cannot continue. Unfortunately, humans are quite good at deceiving themselves. The only real solution to that is maturity and knowledge.
