Is he.. THE ONE?

A 'new age'

So you're equating the PeaceCorps with Hitler Youth? Really? REALLY?

Edit: OK, so it's about an hour after the video was posted, with my original post coming about five minutes after. I did have to watch the thing, after all. I was really hoping this would going to turn into a conversation instead of just threadshitting. A pity.

I didn't say anything. I actually asked a question in my post.

I was also hoping this would provoke a heated discussion, but threadshitting isn't much of a discussion.

At least you came back, even though saying "I didn't say anything..." after posting a video like that is weaksauce. Why else would you have asked that question and posted that video if you didn't support it's ominous tones and insinuations?

The base line for the discussion now becomes...do you agree with the imagery used in the video? Do you think drawing parallels with Hitler is really appropriate?

I just found the video interesting.

But you obviously figured it all out.

Quit mincing around. Why do you find it interesting? Do you agree with the parallels between Hitler Youth and the Peace Corps?

Chimaera · 01-10-2010, 09:36 AM

No, I don't agree.

Can I go home now? I don't know where the body is.

You're the one that started this whole thing with an incendiary video and the stated goal of heated discussion, and then when someone tries to discuss it...you act rather mental. Hmm.

And you started the threadshitting, if we want to start blaming people now.

Interrogation =/= discussion.

It just pisses people off. Perhaps you could comment on the video or some of the speeches listed in the video and how they might relate to the Hilter Youth. There are dates and locations of each speech. Hell, you could comment on the diabolic music that sounds so familiar.

It's not like I wrote a fucking thesis. I'm just sharing a video.

I perhaps misused the term threadshitting, since I was referring to your first post. I suppose, on reflection, that one can't really threadshit on the first post, even though you did take a metaphorical dump all over the place.

And if you consider what I'm doing "interrogation", then perhaps it's clear why you might think something like the Peace Corps is equivalent to Hitler Youth. You have no grasp of reality.

I think my feelings of this little piece of agitprop are clear without mentioning specific things like the hackneyed music or severely quote-mined speeches. I wanted to know your feelings on the piece, so I asked questions. That's typically how things work.
