what the fuck? we already sent china all our damn jobs what else do you want

[michael8610]

wash your mouth,man.You should show your respect and condolence at least

[Laxation]

I would also like some money.

Please pm me with how much you would like to 'donate' and ill set you up with some payment methods.
I dont have a cheesy youtube video right now, but I assure you I'll link you to one someone else made.

[Dramacydal]

If yall start respecting Tibet I might help...

Well...not.

By the way, people, don't forget to boycott the Olympics. Don't watch that shit on TV. That's the easiest way to make them pay.

[Sauru]

i only have 4 people to worry about in my life and the way america is being run its getting to be a much bigger concern for me. i could give 2 shits about what happens to anyone else

[GaZuN]

WoW Sauru.. You are giving it very angrily I think you shouldn't proceed on this way But you decide man.. I can't tell you how to behave.. SOrry..

And btw i am really saddened with the earthquacke in CHina but i really don't have my own money so i can't donate nothing.. Sorry

Not sure that will help Tibet in any way, but sure, why not...

[JaoSming]

Why is it common for people to feel bad when they can't give their money away?

[.jrmagic]

I give money to ALL the beggers on the street, that's why I lose all of it...


I feel bad when I don't give, though I feel good when I do.

Sorry, just my thoughts...

[Joe']

Why should we be sad about people that died in an earthquake in China? We're not sad every other day hundreds of people die of hunger and disease in Africa. How is this different?

You can't expect me to offer my condolences to people I don't at all know in the complete opposite side of the world as I don't expect you to care if there's a catastrophic event in this part of the world.

And you're asking us for money? China has the cheapest labor in the whole world. Chinese companies could make times twenty what we donate in probably less than a few minutes.

[Dramacydal]

Not sure that will help Tibet in any way, but sure, why not...

Not sure if it'll really help Tibet either BUT it certainly won't help China. In fact if lots of people refuse to watch the Olympics certain companies will lose quite a bit of money. Imagine nobody watches the games on TV, it must have some kind of negative impact on Chinese economy.

Nevertheless it's also a statement, a sign of disagreement.


Although I would have preferred all the other nations and athletes uniting and setting up the games somewhere else like Greece or something.

Only if they're/you're a Nielsen family.

[Dramacydal]

Huh?

This is what America is spawning. I feel the same way, and so do alot of others. I no longer give to beggars. They are just going to get fucking high off it.

The other day this guy pulled up on a scooter at the receiving area of the store and started looking in the dumpsters. He said to me, "The magic lamps got to be somewhere, maaaaan." I was humored and disgusted at the same time. I thought people like that didn't really exist.

-babbling-

[benji]

Those are the only people counted in the ratings.

[Cool2Fool]

you should feel very lucky that it didn't happen to you and that you're living in a country that's like heaven compare to those people who died because they lack the money to live in a better place where this would less likely to happen.
Show some humanity Sauru and Joe bitch!

1. The Dali Lama(sp?) (the leader of said tibetan monks we're helping) said that the boycott is absurd
2. If you truly wanna hurt china; boycott chinese made goods. Unless you also do that; you're a hypocrite if you boycott the Olympics.
3. Don't watch it because China is fucking over tibet, watch it to support your fellow countrymen who are putting every bit of their blood sweat and tears into representing us in a positive manner (instead of the power hungry imperialists most of the world sees us as.)

I'm trying to make it to the paralympics myself so i wont be on tv; you guys dont have to boycott mine

"If we have no peace it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other."

To me, a serious problem with the world is a certain general lack of empathy; this idea that "that's just the way it is." A hopelessness, that often subconsciously translates into selfishness, and illogical anger.

Realize that America was built on the backs of suffering at the very least on par, probably worse, than anything occurring in China. Realize that Native American culture is in the process of being annihilated... fact: 90% of reservations are operated at states comparable to the third world. This is not to say that what is occurring in Tibet does not deserve attention, it absolutely does, I'm not trying to create a red herring, just perspective.... I do not believe fervent, unabashed backlash towards China is the right solution. If anything, it further distances us and them, creating an even bigger problem; you do not fight anger with anger, if history has shown us anything, it is that this rarely works. What I am trying to say is that if people are mad at China because they are treating Tibetans unjustly, such reasoning would be somewhat hypocritical... one need not look that far to find similar, if not worse, injustice. "We" were, are, not so different... and perhaps that is the root of resistance.

To me, what this anger, in part, hides is, in fact, self-directed, a general confusion of the First World populace - which I believe want to do the "right" thing, yet are faced with the conundrum that is... every excess they enjoy "signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.”

Yes, China has problems, but so does every country. It is unrealistic for the world to expect china, or any other developing nation for that matter, to climb out of the hole they are in and achieve "moral" equity with the rest of the world using first world methods. that's just not how it works..if China all of a sudden paid all their workers salaries equivalent to America, their economy and infrastructure would collapse! When First World nations strike out at developing countries, pointing out every error, it solves nothing! What they need to do is with their critique offer a feasible solution.

Furthermore, their is something wrong when people have no compassion for others who die in a disaster, because their (the people who died) government is culprit of some other misdemeanor. If it's not right for extremist Muslims to cheer at the bombing of the WTO, to say, "whatever, they deserved it," why is it right for us to do so with the Chinese? Their are valid reasons for "terrorists" to dislike the United States, just as their are valid reasons for Americans to question China. Nazis were German, but not all Germans are bad! Premature judgement is not the answer, read between the lines! It's so easy to hate, real courage lies in the ability to love; to allow for the possibility of understanding. I mean, if a stranger comes up to you, and starts the conversation with a vehement "fuck you," do you really think you're going to listen to him? If you really believe China is committing wrong (and indeed in many ways I absolutely agree they are!), anger, accusation, this solves nothing. If all you want to do is hate something, so be it... but if you sincerely want change it can only start with compassion and dialogue, even if you are not met with either.

The idea of boycotting the Chinese Olympics, basically embarrassing China, into listening is somewhat strange as well. The only real way to get China to "listen" is to help them become a real superpower, give them money, further their economy. It's no surprise that the more money a country has, the better the living conditions. Realize that the only people who will REALLY suffer from an international boycott of Chinese goods are the people already suffering.

U know nothing about China and Tibet.U just got some fucking information from some damn media like "CNN"

I can't thank you enough.

[[Q]]

ok, first of all, relax on the quadruple post.


second, not a whole lot of people are willing to donate to a cause like that, especially for a country halfway around the world. And if they did want to donate, they most likely would not blindly send money to some random bank account in China.

[Dramacydal]

Cry me a river.

I don't even watch CNN or any American news channel for that matter.
