I'm a realist, and tend to be neutral, I look past the obvious stuff in the forfront to try and see the reasons, for instance, someone is convicted of murdering some people, I don't instantly jump on the "He's a monster, kill him!" bandwagon, because I've been through times in my life where that may have been me, dark times.

I see those who complain about things in life and do nothing to change, as the weakest form of fools, sadly most people I know are like that.

I hate all the internet inflated hate mongering here in this discussion, and see how many people "Actively dislike" misanthropic people, even think that sometimes people get that way because of a life that isn't so nice, a life that hands everyone else a key to move forward while leaving said person in the dregs to pound his way through the doors others can pass through with his bloody broken stumps.

When you've lived an overly sheltered or unusually neglect filled life either end of that scale, will cause a person to not develope healthy social behavioural patterns therefor making it difficult for that person to relate to and socially interact with others in a healthy way, which is something that is required for a healthy mind.

There are many MANY factors to be considered in the application of disdain or hate, uppon another person, or it proves that you yourself are not capable of really thinking into a situation, and rather discriminate others openly due to your own perception of social norms.

In other words chill people, some of us have lead a hard life, and not all of us that have have come out of it for the best.
And in this case hard is relative, if you have all the money in the world but you're generally just ignored and have an incomplete or near nonexistant family life, it can still be hard for you growing up.
I grew up dirt fucking poor in a middle-uppermiddle class part of town, in one of the wealthier areas of Canada, top that off with being raised by a socially reclusive single mom, on welfare, wasn't easy, hard times financially and harder times socially, almost friendless for most of my childhood.

I've found that I have a lot of difficulty taking anyone's opinion on the internet seriously, because I have this weird tendency to assume that everyone is 12 years old.

and I find everyone griping about Mass Effect 3 to sound like whiny bitches.

I think that disabled people who are born as such should be aborted. I think that the parents who force their children to be born less than correct are doing so because they are selfish, and the child will be forced to live a painful, often short and less than fulfilling life. The parents themselves will grow resentful for the fact they have to raise the child, and too much tax money will be wasted trying to get it to have an education equal to a normal person for a fraction of the cost.

I think that the law should accommodate both genders equally. If a woman throws a punch, it should be treated no different than a man. If they want equality, equality is equal in ALL measures.

I think there should be no concessions for religion at all. None. Not legally nor politically. Let people think whatever man in the sky is real, but no one should be forced to pander to them, especially the rest of society.

I think that PC gamers are far too entitled. I play plenty of PC games, but I also play console games. I don't need someone telling me why one is better than another. Get over yourselves.

Consoles wars are stupid too.

I really, really like Final Fantasy XIII and XIII-2.

I think Greedo should have shot first.

I think Godfather 3 is the best in the trilogy.

I think Devil May Cry 2 is the best in the series.


Ehh, I got nothing. I can't even lie about it.

No one could think this. Greedo is a poor arrogant Rodian, he thought he could take Solo alive for a better profit. It was all economical.

Yes, the Japanese population is declining. Slowly. As in, without any major change for the next ten generations or so. And yes, India is, too, overpopulated, but throwing people from one overpopulated country to the other won't change jack shit. Besides, there's this little thing called "immigration laws", and it exists for a reason. And yet another point: both India and Japan are infamous for their extreme xenophobia; I don't see them mixing very well.

By you. I can't stress this enough: not every country is fit for, or even NEEDS a democracy. There simply isn't and will never be a political system that will satisfy absolutely every culture. There's no point in "bringing democracy" to Afghanistan, or Iraq, or Iran, or North Korea, because you simply fucking can't, AND you have no way to know for sure if your views are 100% correct.


A bit more on topic, which might get me crucified: stop whining about pedophilia.

To elaborate: I don't mean pedophilia as in fucking babies -- that, no doubt, really is a sick a perversion. What I mean is, say, a 30 year old man having sex with a 16-year-old girl, or vice versa. It's been scientifically established a long long time ago that there is absolutely no damage whatsoever if both partners are physically mature enough for sex, physical or psychological. The idea that people are unable to make a conscious decision until they're 18 is arrogant at best, if not outright sexist (because note how no one ever talks about boys in this case): she's a girl and she's dumb, no way her consent is enough, she's just making noises. As for the attraction to 14-17 year old girls being "sick" -- well, that's just outright bullshit. That's the age when they're SUPPOSED to be getting busy, by nature, so that's why they seem more attractive. Fighting the urge is possible, but what the hell for?

The root of all the anti-pedo thing, I believe, is the concept of sanctity of sex, which is also complete bullshit. Half of the legally recognized types of rape wouldn't be such if it wasn't for that crap, because at the base of it it's two people having fun together, albeit for wrong reasons (lying, most commonly). I'm not saying a girl's psyche won't be actually damaged if she puts out to someone who isn't who she thinks he is, just that it wouldn't be if the concept wasn't there, just sayin'.

I personally think we should totally abandon all concept of gendered identity. There's nothing to be proud about for being a 'manly man' or a 'feminine woman', in my eyes. If I'm male and I want to wear a skirt, why should I feel embarrassed? If a little girl plays about with solider toys and cuts her hair short, why do people have to jokingly refer to her a a 'future butch lesbian'?
I want to be able to cry without being mocked just as much as some of my female friends want to be able to get into auto-engineering without being considered some sort of hidden man.
I consider myself as a "Manly Man" At least to a certain degree. I love and often wear kilts. I cannot watch drama movies, because usually I start to cry.
My Girlfriend has a shorthair, she loves guns and she drinks even more than I do.

And now to the topic.
I dislike Christianity, Islam and every religion that halts the progress of humanity.

Abortion and Euthanasia should be legal.

In order to have babies, every couple should first pass a test to see if they are capable of parenting their children.

I don't want to live long enough to become an elderly who can't take care of himself.

Because of it's diversity, metal is the superior genre, I do like other genres too, like classical music.


I believe that there are people who really needs to die, thus I also support death penalty.

And I'm totally fine with EA, it's the Activision who is the bad guy here.

I don't feel like responding with a huge wall of text when you won't understand the context anyway so here's a quick bullet list response:
1. You make less than 10K a year in the US(don't know about other countries), your in deep shit as an adult.
2. I honestly wasn't completely serious about the forced immigration thing, it was more of a joke. HAHAHA. But it is estimated Japanese pop. will decrease by about a third in about a century if I remember correctly.
3. When did I say democracy? All I said was that their system was made of catshit and food stamps. And yes, I know 100% their government views are wrong, most sensible people do.
4. Nice to see you sticking up for the pedo's. They need more respect in society.

No, do try me. If you're (this is how it's spelled, by the way) trying to masquerade your lack of arguments as "derp u wont get it herp", it's not working.

1. As far as I know, making less than that in the US is literally impossible, due to welfare and uneployment pay.
2. You sure it was a joke, not a clever social experiment in which I behaved exactly like your superior mind predicted it? And back that second statement up with a link, please.
3. Last I checked South Korea was a democracy. And it's nice to see someone so sure of the infallibility of their own views. Clearly you are an extremely gifted thinker, mind open to miriad of possibilities.
4. Oh shit, guys, there goes an S, better put an apostrophe before that *****! And more to the point: your counter-arguments are...?

1. Doesn't address my argument.
2. Don't try and make yourself seem smarter than you are or tried to "set you up" for anything.
3. You just quit making sense after this point to be honest. I got lost in the confusion in you're mind and the sarcasm in your post.
4. Oh shit, guys, guess it's time to break out the grammatical insults. Also, I find it pretty easy to defend why I think that pedophilia is wrong.

2. That... is not a sentence. Still waiting for that link, by the way.
3. You said that, I quote, "the world powers should just bum rush North Korea and destroy every trace of government there, handing power over to South Korea".
4. Then do so, by all means!
5. "Your" mind. "You're" is short for "you are", "your" is a possessive pronoun. What's so goddamned hard about this?

I just cannot stand children. At all.

I think they are rude, selfish, annoying, loud, dirty and stupid.

If any adult had all those characteristics, I would never choose to spend any time with them and I would hate them. So children are no different to me.

I think that eventually the Western world is going to have to go to war with the Islamic world and I hope the Western world utterly crushes and basically eliminates the Islamic world in that war.

This seems to only apply on here, as they are perfectly resonable where I live:

Business:
Unions today are completely unhelpful and oppressive.
Corperations are, in fact, not evil.
We should be going out of our way to get industry back to America.

Politics:
I am pro-life (with extreme exceptions[footnote]IE, Rape, incest, or harm to the mother. However, in all 3 cases, it should be the womens choice of what she wants to do. She still want to give birth even though it might kill her? My hat is off to you ma'am. You are braver than I.[/footnote]).
I am pro-intervention. COMPLETELY pro-intervention. The fact you, Mr. Dictator, used to be The US's ally should not let you off the hook for killing and opressing your people. Sic Simper Tyrannis!
I believe that all drugs that are currently illegal should remain as such...failing that, I would be ok with weed becoming legal, but NOT Cocaine, Meth, etc, under ANY situation.[footnote]At least I know that weed can be used in a medical purpose, and should be legal for such...those others cant and should not be.[/footnote]
In relation to the above mentioned drugs, my heirarchy of what should happen to those people gets alot of flak:
Low security jailtime for 1 year/mandatory rehab and probation officers

20 years hard time in a High security prison

Take your pick:
GBU-28 Bunker Buster

US Navy SEALS

Mk. 77 White Phosphorus Bomb. No, I dont care about the bad rap WP got in Iraq. To me, it doesnt matter with those murdering, cowardly, child killers known as drug lords.

GBU-43B "Massive Ordiance Airblasting Bomb", aka, the "Mother Of All Bombs"

I am willing to take a tax hike to have those options happen.
I supported the war in Iraq and Afganistan.
I dont like Obama. I like(d) McCain. When he lost, I gave Obama a chance, and he blew it. Mitt Romney will be getting my vote in November.
I am in favor of the death penalty in the event of murder or rape. (but if, AND ONLY IF, they are 110% sure the guy did it.)
I am in favor of gun ownership. I will have guns to defend my home when I am on my own. Preferably a pump shotgun or single action revolver. Something that I can "fire" without firing. Because no one in thier right mind will continue trying to break in after hearing *Click-click* from a 12 guage.
I prefer charities to do the work that the social safety net does now, because the government screws it up.
I liked George W. Bush.

Religion:
I believe in God.
I believe All religion prays to the same God, everyone goes to the same Heaven, and the only people turned away are the truely evil (Murderers, Rapist, Genocideist, etc).
There is nothing wrong with religion...there is just something wrong with its emissaries (IE, the Church.)
Chivialry and Gentlemanly Code is actually a good thing.
I believe you should not have sex before marriage.[footnote]Serves some pratical purpose in my current relationship to my girlfriend/future fiance. If you want to know how, PM me.[/footnote]

Entertainment:
I like ALL Star Wars movies. Yes, even 1-3...and even the animated ones.
I like the Micheal Bay Transformer movies.
I think Micheal Bay and George Lucas are good Directers.
I like Bill O'Reilly and the O'Reilly Factor.

I hate religion. I think it's a poison. It brings many people peace, but it destroys so much of what makes humanity great: it stops progress, and creates an intelligence drain on the general populace. God is a fallacy, and anyone who believes otherwise is either kidding themselves or just plain scared. People who have faith can do great things. Einstein, Thomas Edison, many theoretical physicists are spiritual, and have done more for the understanding of the universe, but they sustain this illogical and baseless belief. Religion, in particular, however, is evil. It should be eradicated. Extinguished. Firebombed from fifteen miles up. You get the point. It hurts too many people to be good.
I absolutely agree. Especially because of how irritating it is to have someone go on and on about how "God will save them" and "I'll pray for you" and all that shit. It's like they don't have any trust in humanity.

And it's 1000x more annoying when they have some disability or have had an absolutely shit life. They're running away from their problems, deluding themselves into believing that some nonexistant Great Dick in the Sky is going to save them.

Plus, religion causes too many damn problems. Israel, anyone? Firebomb that piece of shit, please.
