Hatchet isn't necessarily negative. The thing that sickens me is being called negative because I talk about how the government has failed, or how the corporations basically rule our society, or how animals are treated cruelly, or how people are dumbed down, etc, and I'M seen as the negative one, where someone who just buys into society isn't. It is being realistic. Sure, some things might only be conspiracy theories (though I doubt many of them are), but if you read anything that isn't manipulated by the corporate agenda, then you'll see that what Hatchet or myself believe in is strongly grounded in knowledge.
Hatchet
is doing something. What do you expect him to do? You think him going out and doing something by himself, because the amount of people who will do anything is very small, will do
anything at all? We are all part of the problem AND the solution. This is frustrating for me because my whole ideology is based around needing people to contribute. He talks about the issues at hand and so do I. We can't have a coup d'etat if I'm standing outside alone against riot cops, holding a garbage can as a shield while they have riot gear on.
You calling Hatchet negative is you calling me negative because me and Hatchet agree on quite a bit. We have the same basic goals, though there is always room for debate even among those who have common goals and ideas.
I didn't read everything that has been said in here because it seemed like a personal argument but I skimmed and knoxbox, some of the things you are saying are on a completely different level than what Hatchet (or I) would think on. We, roughly, want a collapse of the structure we live in now, so a new, better structure can be built.
Unfortunately we need everyone to do this, and if we get apathetic SOMETIMES, well that's human nature. When the odds are against you then it gets upsetting, but (and I'm speaking for myself here), I drag myself out of it. Constantly.
