An explanation???

The following typical threads that plague martial arts sites will get moved here if not just deleted: 1 - My style is better than Your style" - 2 - "Internal & External" - 3 - Personal attacks - 4 - Threads that start well, but degenerate into a spiral of nonsense.

An explanation???

Postby Jake on Wed Oct 01, 2008 2:30 pm

I did a search here on the flowah for Zeitgeist but not much came up.

For those of you who have an open mind and want to know what the fuck is realy going on...

This is the place to start. The movie is about 2 hours long and is KICK ASS.

The first 5-8 minutes kind of suck...It's all black for awhile...

KEEP WATCHING!

Please watch this. It will explain A LOT.

It takes a lot of liberties to make it's points. It does make a lot of good points in one film, but you have weed out the sillyness with what is slighty true or true.

Do you also think the fundimentals of the American economy are strong as well?

Didn't the Repubs tell us that last week?

No, a person running for president did, and he's still correct. I vote this thread be locked, and chunked.

Nothing good can come of it.

zeitgeist is riddled with errors.

It's poor research and is more of the same fear mongering it purports it's subjects to be prattling on about.

The points on religion alone are almost all ridiculous and completely contrary to what is stated openly.

It could have been way better if the kids who made it had only adhered to one principle "objectivity". INstead they outright make a bunch of shit up!
face value is not to be given to these or any other form of propaganda.
This shit only serves to obfuscate and make the real issues even more cloudy.

Jake, do more research and read even the stuff you don't want to and find dry if you want to form valid opinions.
Dropping zeitgesit on teh table is like openly admitting that you are an idiot.

It's "Parry", and yes, to me, it is.

The French perspective in regards to what hit the pentagon was virtually silenced by this film.

Look into that and you'll see where the zeitgeist folks basically plagiarized their entire spin on 911 and added a bunch more crap to it to make it turn into a blatant tinfoil hat piece and thereby silencing the otherwise interesting information on the subject that came from France originally.

It's basically a counter/counter propaganda piece. Designed to shock first, but then with further research and deeper look becomes a juvenile farce and all the while the actual points that are valid are washed away with the dreck.

Not solid at all. This was discussed on the old forum, to me it is BTDT. Some of the more ridiculously sloppy scholarship I've ever seen.
