Michael Moore tears up on Larry King

[viletree]

Why don't you ever do videos showing your face anymore? We recognize each other and communicate based on our expressions, you aren't a bad looking fellow you should do more videos like this,sir.

Michael Moore the Marxist millionaire mensch

[MrWizenBud]

Nice to see you haven't lost your touch HU.

[anyusmoon1]

Oh and p.s. I NEVER saw him depart from the rePUBLICan democRATS nest. I have no tokens of good will, not even sarcastic ones. He is utterly despicable and a traitor to intellectual integrity aka TRUTH. Facts about the constitution never seem to matter to the public rats.

[hellsunicorn]

I never really saw it either, but others that I knew were convinced that he was taking a hard look at things. Alex Jones, who often bends over backwards to accommodate others at times to get them to see the truth, has never seen any change in him either.

[anyusmoon1]

Where Moore is correct is in his disgust toward fascism (corporatism) but he is totally attempting to supplant it with socialism.

He's supporting the socialist side of the same coin. Heads/fascist Tails/socialist- the coin isn't real (just as our coins are no longer real) and must be discarded for the trash they are.

[hellsunicorn]

Indeed, a hatred of evil is not sufficient to know goodness, and likewise fighting evil with evil is sheer folly. I've never like Michael Moore, primarily because he has a unique way of keeping people ignorant, not so much with the same level of bold irreverence that some have, but with a clearly blatant dishonesty.

[anyusmoon1]

LOL EXACTLY! what I came away with too! Oh my gosh, you really speak my mind.

Of course Michael Moore would lie down on his belly and hiss, that's what snakes do.

[TripperLV]

I watched the interview and agree that it was "very strange". Modern liberalism to me has become a cult. Obama's decision, in my view, is purely political. He does not want to end the war sooner for fear of escalating unemployment from the retuning troops, yet he will end the war just before the elections. Thank you for posting. RJ

[Yerzriknot]

Sorry, Bill Mauhr is more intelligent then Moore.

[TripperLV]

@Yerzriknot - I would agree based on my impressions of Maher and Moore. However, I wish they both would take some economics classes. They are complete idiots when discussing economic issues. Moore, and liberals in general, can start by understanding the difference between "capitalism" and "corporatism".

[hellsunicorn]

I probably should have elaborated on where the commonality between Mahr and Moore is, which is mainly in their irreverent natures. Both of them have no problem acting completely pompous if it will make them money, and to varying degrees they have a strong hatred of tradition.

They are both off-putting to me, though perhaps in very different ways.

[bwebb1981]

This might be inappropriate for me to say, but I hope Michael Moore and TheAmazingAnus would hurry up and die of a fucking heart attack and join Ted Kennedy in hell(If there is one).

[hellsunicorn]

Considering that it is my personal belief that Ted Kennedy was a bold reprobate and a self-indulgent pervert, and thus not one of God's elect, I'm not one to complain at the statement. Michael Moore would do well to drop his flexible, Jesuit-oriented theology and behave like the Christian that he currently pretends to be. TheAmazingAtheist just needs to keep his mouth closed when he's not consuming blueberry pie or MacDonalds food.

[bwebb1981]

I'm just sick of seeing these two idiots and how they're treated like geniuses. I don't understand why Moore feels the need to make a movie attacking "capitalism". His side has already won. TAA pissed me off with his retarded glenn beck=racist video. I don't like beck, but I don't think he's a racist. Its a baseless statement to make, considering all that beck did was have political minorities on his show, Whether they're neocons or not, I dont know. All Im saying is TAA is a moronic asshole.

[maggoli67]

Kind of mind-bending...cognitive dissonance, maybe? A lot of people married to various causes have had their rugs pulled out from under them lately.

[hellsunicorn]

That is what I'd chalk it up to. I was pretty well married to the cause of the Roman Church until just over a year ago, in part because of their opposition to Free Masonry. Lately though, I've found that the only way to fight against secret tyranny is individual dissociation. Almost every group out there, religious or secular, has been corrupted.

[17Revolution76]

Wow, well said. I've been trying to make this point for the last year and a half. We -have- to stop relying on politicians to help us out of the grave they, themselves, have dug for us. We -have- to stop relying on the marketplace for our survival, or "freedom", or whatever illusion of it may be gained, will always be just out of reach for the common man.

[17Revolution76]

Oh and damn fine work on the guitar, brother. Sounds oddly like my style of playing.

[hellsunicorn]

Interesting, what bands do you tend to listen to. What I did was somewhat of a mishmash of Van Halen, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, and perhaps a hint of Joe Satriani.

Oh, and thanks.

[17Revolution76]

I listened to a lot of Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Megadeth and Tool growing up. Definitely some Iron Maiden. Too many great bands to mention, really. I prefer older metal and music that presents a relevant and important message to the listener.

[hellsunicorn]

I've always held the opinion that the marketplace itself wasn't inherently bad, but that it has the potential to create weak people if it becomes man's only source of sustenance. Some may call this a moderated version of revolutionary thought, but moderation only fails when it compromises between 2 evils.

Likewise, my view on organized religion is pretty nuanced, in part due to my interest in pre-7th century Catholicism. Sovereignty for nations and dioceses, with ecumenical councils a rarity.

[17Revolution76]

The trading of goods and the use of currency isn't necessarily evil, you're right, it's just another aspect of human society that as been irreversibly compromised. The only permanent solution would be to dismantle these political, religious, and financial institutions and rebuild them from the ground up.. and we all know that will never happen.
