    It's called a revolution. History has seen a few of those...

    And it doesn't work very well, we mostly just get killed.

    Free from what? Order and Safety? It is plausible, however it would not be long lasting and would probaly result in an even worse world, where the strong dominate and enslave the weak then after a century or so we would be back at square one.

    Personally, I don't think it's cops that make the world a bad place. Try going a bit further up the authority ladder.

    Ditto ditto. And why do we want to be free, anyway? Captivity and trappedness is all in nowadays; sadly so. People enjoy their bondage; some take a sadistic, cynical PLEASURE in it!!! And some people...


    They're....

    MASOCHISTS. :weep:

    As far as I know, The Man resides at Fool's Gold mostly these days. So I don't see why we need to free ourselves of someone that's not here.



    EoFF joke aside, what exactly are you talking about? You need to elaborate more. When you say free from the man, do you mean anarchy? Because anarchy would suck. Human beings naturally will go towards chaos unless we're kept like sheep. There's also a good chance that some idealist would rise up and enact a government that could be much worse than what we have.

    I really don't know how to address what you're saying.

    You say you want a revolution, well you know, we don't want to change the world.

    Necron stole my post.

    Yeah, I'm not too exact on what it is you mean to be "free" from, but I assume you're talking about anarchy...which, if it worked idealy correct (say, the hippie idea of anarchy), thn there'd be peace on earth, but that would require everyone to be civilized and share and get along and not kill each other without laws and governing bodies protecting anyone...

    And well, incase you haven't noticed, mankind isn't very good at that sort of thing. =/

    One time I considered the fact that I lived in the same state as The Man and that I could easily enough track him down and throw a brick at the back of his head, but I ultimately decided that, hey, he's doing the best he can.

    Know what else is funny? Apple Sauce. The glory that it brings to any meal is unheard of by any other side dish. BUT WAIT! It is all just a conspiracy by "The Man" to get us to eat their mind control forumla. STOP CITIZENS! STOP BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!!!

    I think you're probably being silly, but I wouldn't want to live in an anarchic country. However, I do feel that there are certain authoritarian positions that aren't as closely monitored by the public, and ergo get away with too much.

    Signature by rubah. I think.
