Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
For a long time I was a member of the local punk and indy scene, playing gigs, meeting others of like mind and interest. A lot of them have become my friends, and of course, been added on FB.
With the student protests and riots, I am noticing an alarming amount of people who used to want change now towing the party line and it disturbs me.
It is almost as if now that they have reached the 30-ish mark, they now accept everything given, no matter how much is stinks of bullshit. They wont rebel, they complain of stupid students. Missing that the politicians that brought in this bill had their educations given to them totally free, before the introduction of basic tuition fees in 1997.
They wont protest or raise complaint because 'they have work' or they believe protest to be wrong in some way.
They voted for parties they use to mock in this years elections.
No wonder nothing actually changes.
Rebellion seems to be the preserve of youth

Time to look like a fool. Here is only a piece of my proof, where is yours?

In the mid 90's, Bin Laden threatened to kill as many civilians as possible on American soil. Wow, what a surprise that he did it while Bush and Cheney were sleeping. I'm no idiot. I have a B.A. in Physical Anthropology with a minor in Psychology and contrary to what you might think, I keep an open mind. But 9/11 was no conspiracy.
PowerOut - nice links, interesting as usual sir!
Angelic - Loose Change is NOT evidence. it`s sensationalism from people who think they`re the Lone Gunmen.
Arianna - Obama BAD! Michael Moore BAD!... you sound like Fox news.
i think this thread is going to deteriorate into the irresistable force meeting the immovable object....
it`s also about how you present your argument, "loose change" simply sounded like a bunch of pissed off, paranoid emo kids who`d had too much caffeine.
i found it as baseless as saying "i zoomed in super close to a photo i took and saw something that looked like a teacup, therefore teacups are part of a conspiracy"
there ARE some things that are suspicious (especially the guy who took out the insurance policy days prior) but again, suspicion != fact.
if we ever want to know the truth, call off the wikileaks hounds....
Really??
there's not enough of that here either.
