[kopi5896]

Thank you for sharing.

[minami935]

Ella Es el Matador is great.

[theinkbrain]

this art was practiced in ancient crete - it is thousands of years old, and is exceptional in that it requires immense skill and courage to face an enraged and focused opponent. i used to deplore bull-fighting until i saw this woman now i see it in a different light. it is hypocritical for people who eat meat to call this art barbaric. they complacently eat meat without giving a thought to the abuse endured by the cattle whose remains they thoughtlessly devour. they are the real savages.

peace

@theinkbrain

hahaha! It also needs lots of public money, haha.

What a waste of humanity you are.

[theinkbrain]

@kkontiki

wow!

what an impressively brilliant observation!

you must be a real genius !

and with great sense of humour too. i am really impressed.

[kkontiki]

@theinkbrain

ANd you? You must be a parasite, right?

[theinkbrain]

@kkontiki

such probing questions and impeccable logic!

you really display an impressive ability when it comes to grasping complex concepts.

[kkontiki]

@theinkbrain

Logic?

Are we talking about Rocket Science or philosophy or computers here?

L0L We are talking about a bunch of morons whose only passtime is to torture bulls: Why doesn't the brave bullfighter faces a "complete" bull without spears?

If the bull "wins" do you think he has an advantage? An "avisado" bull is a threat, why? You are a waste of humanity, abortion would've been a solution for this planet with you.

[theinkbrain]

@kkontiki i am thinking that your moral outrage bespeaks a deep concern for animal rights and a distaste for animal cruelty. bravo. what do you think about people who eat meat? do you think they are as sensitive as you when it comes to sticking a fork into a steak?

as for abortion being a solution in my case - perhaps you are right. i don't know if the world would have been better off had i not been born, and i too sometimes question my own humanity. being a decent human is no easy task.

[kkontiki]

@theinkbrain

Animals rights is a cliche nowadays used, we should instead speak about human rotenness. Demagogy at it's greatest to infer that people who eat meat are as rotten as someone who pays to see an animal being tortured to death.

Od course theres injustice in the meat industry: have you ever read Upton Sinclai'r "The Jungle"?

If you proclaim that bulfighting is great you are in no way mirrorring a good spirit within.

[theinkbrain]

@kkontiki you are right. human rottenness seems deeply embedded in our species. you are also right in questioning whether eating meat is as deplorable as paying to watch an animal killed. perhaps some people go to watch the human being risk his or her life, and not the bull being killed. i dont think i could stomach watching an actual bullfight. i never said bulfighting is great. i said that watching this woman i felt a sense of awe.

i havent read 'the jungle', but i will order it today.

[kkontiki]

@theinkbrain

OK, I understans where you are coming from. Sorry, I misunderstood your position on this issue, I take back what I've said about you.

[theinkbrain]

@kkontiki no need to apologise.

i very much enjoyed our exchange, because it encouraged me to reach a little beyond myself.

this documentary, so powerful and paradoxical, made me examine my own internal contradictions and conflicts. it gave me the insight that my beliefs and my feelings could collide, and demonstrated for me that the glorious and the reprehensible could coexist like in a greek drama. now for me the bull ring exemplifies both beauty and savagery. i didnt know this before.

[kkontiki]

@theinkbrain

Since I need an "education" to grasp the obscure and complex concept of animal torture, plus parasitism: subvenciones in Spain, tell me where can I earn my degree?

In Oxford, Yale, Harvard, La sorbonna? L0L Taurinos = mierda.

[theinkbrain]

@kkontiki

it does not require an education to recognise that animal cruelty is wrong. no doubt people who are gratuitously cruel to animals are inhumane, and it is easy to see that in the context of bullfighting, the bull is at a grave disadvantage.

despite that, i recognise a paradoxical reaction in myself. even as i deplore cruelty to animals, when i watch maripaz vega i feel a sense of awe. i admit this is illogical, but this is how i feel.

[yada147258]

Anyone who finds this anything but an asault on animals is a fucking idiot. I hope this woman is gored to death by a bull, her and anyone else who is stupid enuff to take part in it. It's not sport it's not art , it just a bunch of inbred Spanish idiots killing for fun.

[dragonperuvian]

eres muy linda. y terminastes haciendo esa boludeses de estupideces...

[cidmenow]

I have seen this 3 times in 2 days. I have to say I love it. I have never even thought of bull fighting because I do live in the U.S.A.

but to wach it and wach a woman do it . that my frind is an amazing and graceful thing. Just keep doing what you do....
