I think this country needs a bloody revolution, plain and simple.

like oldskool style? you know, swords and crossbows and no fighting when it rains?
- toastie0
no, like pulling out religious extremist rightwing fucks by their balls and launching them into space.

the US is not capable of revolution, in the majority you have been anaesthetised by television, consumer products and disinformation.

I think there are many things wrong with this country.
The NY Post cover is not one of them. Who cares what is on the cover, I don't. It is a shit publication that nobody takes seriously...and those who do probably share the perspecitve of those making the editorial decisions.
I love a good revolution, but remeber this is America and you are exactly the product of training. And how well trained you are...starting a thread based on your emotion, based on the reaction you had to the cover of the NY Post. Viral Marketing could not be taught better than that.
We are all just nodes withing the intricate and complex architecture of social manipulation and advertising...spreading the message as well sneeze and cought it out...Nobody likes being sick but the virus does not care...it invades...mulitplies and spreads...exactly as we are doing right now.

Speak for yourself mate. I personally like to try not to be. Sometimes I fail - most of the time I'm right on. Punk rock.
- mrdobolina0
I agree with Jevad.

Yeah! What he said.

you americans need to lighten up...you are all in bunker mode regardless of politcal persuasion you label yourself with.
Read this thread, and try to work out whose from the USA and whose not. Sheesh..live a little.
- toastie0
no he's right, we are just that. And the cover is about how people cried when they saw 'The Passion of Christ' and that they were changed forever.

Okay, for real, I want people to stop talking about viral marketing as if it is a new concept that is the result of business training. Let's all just admit that it is just a term WE use to convince clients that our ideas are fresh.
"Viral Marketing" is simply creating word of mouth and has been around since the dawn of time. Should we not talk about ideas anymore just because they were originated from a media outlet or from the Evil Corporatocracy? Yes, let's not discuss anything anymore because we're actually spreading viral marketing plans.
Let's not talk about how an Anti-Gay Marriage Amendment is discrimination because we read about it in the papers, which are owned by conglomerates like Knight Ridder.
Is the general consensus that if an idea you don't agree with is talked about, then it is viral marketing originating from the government or a corporation? This IS a conspiracy to take away the rights of others, yes, because the country where live has done that since its inception. But if this were truly viral marketing, it would be poorly planned because it has the effect of people like us doing something against it, namely, discussing why it is wrong.
If we don't talk about it, how will it change? So cut it out with the conspiracy theory viral marketing junk. It's not helping.

I'm going to see the movie. Not because I believe in the bible version of god or jesus christ (I don't), but because I am a fan of movies, and the cinematography is supposed to be amazing.
- lowimpakt0
nice plug at the end of a sensible rant.

"...conglomerates like Knight Ridder...."
