  • He was a passionate NAMBLA supporter, making him a pedophile, or at least, a hardcore pedophile sympathizer. Therefore, anything he has to say, any goodwill he has attained, all accomplishments are officially cancelled out for time immemorial.

  • I have read enormous amounts of material on Ginsburg and have never come across any info that he was attracted to children....where does this BS come from? Allen liked MEN, he was not attracted to kids. That said, he smoked tons of pot over the years to be able to speak the way he does here. Go Allen!

  • what a load of hippie horseshit

  • It just occured to me...if all the meaningless things that Allen Ginsberg said and did were unsaid and undone...he wouldn't exist. And this comment wouldn't exist...So in conclusion...meaningless things have a meening to other meaningless thing. And thus there is meaning in everything...which is just as well for Allen!

  • is there any way you could upload allen ginsberg reading "song" aloud, from the life and times of allen ginsberg? i haven't been able to find it on the internet at all. :\ please help a sista out!

  • What's he on about?

  • This should be added to the beginning of EVERY YouTube clip.

  • yes, excellent statements. The medium is a rationale, between two irrationalities, my being and his being. Across time. To him I am in a quantum state, a possibility, an indefinity. To me he is a definity, he existed. I can predict his future he can affect my past. My existence is a result of his choice I am trapped upon the premises of choices he made The power of choice is in his hands Like all the other gods of 1967 10 years before I was born This comment is going nowhere
  • I'm reporting on him this Friday for school!

    GAAH! I'm so nervous. I'm going to have to act like him for my presentation. :P

  • @BevHillsKid Mann you are worthless you have nothing to offer nothing to be remembered by. Your a fuckingfagget educational slave go back unviersity you slave. how long you gonna let them pussh you aroundd huh. i beett you likee do youu. i bet you like gettingyou face dragged in the shit.

  • @dumbfuckingthing It's kind of odd that you're calling him an "educational slave" when that education is actually exposing him to Allen Ginsberg. Like any other experience in life, "higher education" requires you to take control of your learning and your experience is ultimately your responsibility. Most professors are completely overjoyed if you decide to expand your learning beyond the curriculum. Indoctrination in universities is an excuse of the lazy.

  • @BevHillsKid expand your mind you fucking slave i bet your just a little follow of all the childish fads. you need to break loose of all these false oppenions becase allen is true to him self and allways was. so maybe you need to try some lsd or maybe some messcalin. but really man your a beverlyhills kid if i sawyouin real life id probably be goingto jail for life. THIS WORLD IS FILLED WITH SUCH STUPID PEOPLE ALL THE REAL PEOPLE ARE DEAD.AND I THINK THIS EGNORANT POPULATION WILLJUSTGETMOREDUMB

  • 2012 SUMMER OF LOVE

  • Jean Baudrillard..

  • @1988bluemoon man, I thought i was the only one thinking about him too...

  • allen ginsberg was a fucking pedphile

  • @treyLung Whoa I just checked that out and yeah he is. He supported Nambla, which is an organisation under IPCE (International Pedophile and Child Emancipation lobby).

  • @treyLung Just like your dad

  • Thank God he is dead.

  • @IdiotsForObamaCom I hope you kill yourself you loser piece of shit. I'd like to shit down your mother's throat while you watch.

  • @Ryan2142 Great poem, you are a genius.

  • @IdiotsForObamaCom that's a bit harsh but lol anyway

  • @IdiotsForObamaCom Hope that you are next

  • Does this make sense at all?

  • Yes it does

  • @ZLUGGO

    Not to me.

  • @ZLUGGO oh good I'm glad it's not just me

  • wow. obamatron and friends, would you kindly not hijack someones vid and instead defer your mindless rambling to private msgs? i won't bother to argue any premise, just hope you realize no one really cares about the bs you ramble and would rather read comments more relevent to the vid.

  • everyone keeps giving me "thumb down" for my comment,so i feel i need to explain my comment,i really like(d) Ginsberg,BUT he actually sided with "NAMBLA" for a while and thats just disgusting,if its true what he said,that he wanted to create a debate around freedom of speech (wich i hope it was) thats fine by me,but if not,and hes sexually attracted to kids i hate him...but,hey,instead of giving me thumbs down,debate with me,prove to me that he wasnt scum...

  • Comment removed

  • Ginsberg was always mad, completely out of his mind. Always, I really mean it. That's how it is with true loons.

  • this is probably the best video about video on youtube

  • I've done TONS of LSD and I loved it all and never had a bad time...

    I'm a pretty normal person today

  • i think you need to have a "bad time" on lsd to put things into perspective, or hone your sights. and define "pretty" haha

  • @McGraffix Share the love, man, share the love.

  • @McGraffix this is also true for me.

  • @McGraffix for some reason people who have some emotional baggage tend to go nuts when they do acid while people who feel good mentally have a good time

  • @Bolsjevikpirayan Hell ya!

  • @McGraffix Definitely agree. LSD is not only a kind, but helpful drug that lets you see inside yourself and out into the far stretches of reality. When treated with respect, it can show us spirit, universe, infinity. I take and have taken LSD and other psychedelics and am a perfectly "normal" person day to day. I just feel more "aware", now.

  • @McGraffix

    even a nightmarish lsd death-trip can be one of the most worthy experiences. the mind can be a very dark place and facing demons one by one may be terrifying.often the most gratifying experiences take some measure of courage, a notion that ought to be inherent in the idea of exploring oneself internally, but a conquest made all the more noble for those same reasons.In the end, the lessons learned by experience are invaluable and arguably the journey inward the single most important.

  • 2012 the song - Harry Loco the missing link between the 60's and the future !

  • Allen Ginsberg really smokes the bone.

    Literally.

    He was even a member of "NAMBLA"(North American Man Boy Love Association").

    As for his rambling?

    He's just another Timothy Leary.

    But neither are anywhere even close to a Charles Manson.

  • Comment removed

  • I wouldn't have an issue with him being gay,its his being dull that really irritates me.

    As for NAMBLA,so you believe there should not be a love that "dare not speak its name"?

    do you realize what they were campaigning for?

    (No laws governing age of consent)

    So your okay with the "love" that would see a middle aged man seek out the sodomising of a fourteen year old boy?

    Charles Manson,and how does he relate to all this?

    check the dates and connections.

    I'll send you a video,he speaks..

  • Comment removed

  • Your using silly word games,and specious reasoning to talk up a flowery justification for paedophillia.

    Are you sure thats a path you want to go down?

    "Who says a pedo should be locked away for sodomising a fourteen year old boy?"

    I do.

    Do you understand why kids aren't tried in courts as adults?

    Its because they aren't always folks that make the best choices for themselves.

    Do you remember being fourteen?

  • Why try and understand it?

    Some things dont require intellectual evaluation,they are just best left in the gutter,to look up at brighter things,as a most famous paedophile once wrote(Oscar Wilde).

    Some things can be taken objectively,and appreciated for what they are(Oscar Wilde,etc).

    However,some things cannot(NAMBLA:Dedicated to lowering the age of consent).

    Dont be afraid to judge because you think its not "New Agey".

    Judgement is our friend.

    Without it we are robots.

  • Its all double-talk from you,all the time.

    Its like facing a relentless barrage of New Age post-card ideology.

    Its disposable.

    It reads in three seconds,and amounts to nothing.

    You take a silly position on something,which you intend on dazzling your way through reason with nonsense.

    None of this is to say your dim.

    I strongly believe otherwise.

    I just dont think your giving yourself enough credit to carry on a normal conversation without your dull,and trite lyrical devices.

  • Comment removed

  • I read them.

    I dont recall making any accusations.

    In fact,it was you,in your last post that attempted a manipulative little manouvre at amatuer psyche-evaluation of me:

    "I am sure there are things about you that are different,or alien."

    You dont have "ideas".

    You have the one line of New Age rhetoric that you throw around in an attempt to be a mini-guru.

    Guess what?

    Your not the only person in the world who has ever tripped,so lose the strap-on Buddhism.

    Its pointless.

    Speak...

  • I didn't get this post of yours untill I had replied to your last one.

    Of course I value your opinion,thats just what I have been trying to say.

    Its the lingo I dont value.

    Incedentally,I sent you a video the other day.

    But they do not always work at the recieving end.

    My friends often dont the stuff I send them.

    Ghosts in the machine.

    It was the Charles Manson tape I promised.

    Go to may channel,and look on favourites at "Charles manson speech".

    Let me know what you think....

  • Comment removed

  • Sorry about that second last post,I was a little heavy-handed.

    I talk to alot of idiots here,and sometimes I am too quick to lump people onto the scrap heap.

    That was in his earlier prison days,Charlie has spent most of his life there.

    See how he speaks a more dynamic version of the same flavour?

    Its like the same kind of existentialist stuff,with a harder edge.

    His is an interesting story too.

    Charlie speaks so much Truth it makes my heart race.

    There is more...

  • Comment removed

  • Yeah,I know the one you mean.

    That whole interview is here on youtube,and heaps of others are too.

    It IS sad.

    Every few years they like to send some "reporter" in there to poke the animal in the cage,he's everones favourite boogey man.

    I don't neccesarily think that Charlie was a great guy,as he was surrounded by occult figures like Anton Lavey,and numerous other creeps:"The Process Church",who were also envolved in the "Son if Sam" killings(All Satanism/occult creepiness)...

  • Much of the "counterculture" had shady connections.

    Leary was a CIA agent,and the CIA had alot to do with acid distribution,as they do today with heroin,and crack.

    LSD was used extensively in mind-control experiments in military bases,such as Edgewood Arsenal,were Frank Zappa spent time growing up in a military family.

    Jim Morrison's father was an Admiral in the Navy,and had part in officially begining the Vietnam War-"The Gulf of Tonkin Incedent."

    All this stuff can be researched easily...

  • Comment removed

  • I have to sign out now,but we should open a private message if your interested.

    If so,I'll speak to you then.

    If not,All the best to you and your family.

    Regards, Henry.

  • what the hell are you talking about. first of all, Zappa hated LSD, and he never did it.

  • Where did you read that?

    A fanzine?

    Go suck a lemon,Lucille.

  • He didn't hate it, he just didn't take it.

  • No I heard it from his mouth, on an interview, on this website.

    But it was probably set up by the CIA so that ignorant folks such as myself could look like idiots when debating informed people.

    Oh, wait.

  • @crlxc,you do not look like an idiot, just another drone in the hive. Who doesn't know about Zappa's very vocal distain for the hippies? Do you not see any show-business,and theatre surrounding pop music? It's all just legit,one-way,straight-talking "honesty-with-the-stars" is it? Riiiight. No false "rivalries" between manufactured bands,no publicity stunts,no apparent contradictions.... It's all just one biiiiig gig in the sky,huh? Right. Very good,Dorothy. Enjoy Pepsi,Dickhead.
  • I think it's funny that you took the time to call me a drone in the hive and a dickhead in the same bit. The fact that you are resolving to blatantly use childish insults gave me the closure i needed to finally begin ignoring you. Have fun pretending you are an intellectual on the internet. The rest of us will go on enjoying life.

  • ahah. though i liked his comment, intelligence always prevails. good show.

  • i like your style, sir.

  • There is a great book I just finished a while back about some of these things if you are interested in knowing more.

    It is called "Acid Dreams:The complete social history of LSD,the CIA etc.."

    It is NOT complete,but its a start.

    There is heaps of stuff on the web too.

    There is evidence to suggest that the whole "counterculture" was cooked up by the hidden hand as an early social-engineering attempt at the NWO.

    I DO like the vibe,and the music/intrigue ,but simply remain aware of the agenda.

  • Crowley is mixed up in it all too.

    Its the same "Do what thou wilt" philosophy that is manifest in the "Free Love" idealism.

    Its an ultimately very unhealthy,and destructive little piece of false reasoning,based around utter rejection of common morality that has done nobody any favours.

    "Man as animal",this kind of thing.

    Crowley was not a nice guy,who died a very unhappy,and confused man,who was dissilusioned about his earlier choices in the morallity-rejection trip.

    He was an MI5 agent!

  • Charles and the Family were hung up for the Tate Murders,and they were probably right to be.

    But there were other third parties envolved,which we never hear about.

    There are often intelligence(CIA)connections that are envolved with cults,and "The Family" were no different.

    Charles was said to have been a mind-controlled slave,who was programmed at the nearby China Lake Air Force facility.

    His errand:causing shit between the Black Panthers,and the Hippies in order to sully both parties.

  • I follow, pretty much, but I don't understand: what's wrong with "pure imagery"? Isn't that what psychedelics and avant-garde paradigms promote most of the time? I, myself, believe that profundity often comes from what's "pure", "simple", or "meaningless" (a la Blake in the "Auguries" poem).

  • Interesting. Thanks for the reply.

  • A great voice...in all ways...

  • haha, I hate to love Ginsberg, but I really love to love 'im.

  • There is just something lovable about ginsberg. What he just said was complete bollocks but bollocks with such enthusiasm and vigor!

  • not that I do , but what you mean is that you don't understand what he is saying, that doesn't make it bollocks.

  • More negative votes from persons that confuse simplistic crap with brilliance plix

  • An exercise in boredom, the so called beats with the exception of Burroughs' Junky and some of Kerouac's works, a clique that scholars like but actually doesnt have half the passion of half a Bukowksi line. Experiments don't always work, specially "cut ups" and everything this bloke wrote after the Howl, the dots on the tivi...and a repulsive interviewer with his tongue up ginsberg's ass

  • Meh. maybe.

  • please, find somewhere else to spout this... up somebody's ass, perhaps.

  • time is an illusion, space is an illusion. that's what he's saying. we're all together no matter what.

  • I'm high and this is just what I'm getting from it.

  • When I say both you I mean Ginsberg and the viewer.

  • Basically, there are realities and electronics. Both of you are real souls communicating in a different time of space yet you are communicating on a conscious level, through site and mind and spirit, so this cannot be false. This presence cannot be false since you both sense each other.

  • And now the news....

  • wtf did he just say?

  • I am going to favorite this and watch it again next time I'm stoned.

  • here here!

  • I am

  • He goes 3D :o

  • That is amazing to listen to... i found a site that has cool writing also it is ColorsAndSounds dot

  • Comment removed

  • Probably owes to a combination of bad poetry, acid and Buddhism

  • It's irrelevant whether or not he thought it was brilliant. He probably knew that it wasn't. But i think it is. He probably knew people would.

  • If Allen Ginsberg Molested a child or had alleged relations with a child(which I don't believe). Then well screw him wish he had went down for it... Yet his writings are still fantastic! and still the greatest most unique archaic gift to American Literature. I assure you that his writings and poems are 100% child molester free!. You can imprison the priest, but you can't burn the church!!!! (thats mine btw,Plz don't plagurize me on that last part)

  • wtf is his point? he's just rambling about what he sees and what we're seeing... BRILLIANT

  • this guy was one of the most amazing minds to have ever lived. EVER. its a damn shame his support for nambla is even mentioned by anyone, because that was just part of his philosophy that we are all free to live the life we want against this oppressive world.

    But say what you will anyway, because it makes no difference. Ginsberg was on a whole different level than most of us are and if the human race stands any chance we need to start listening to the free minds like his. He preached love.

  • I've been a fan of Ginsberg for many years. Read his poetry, heard his songs and read his biographies. However; it is becoming clearer and clearer this man was not at that he's cracked up to be. Look closely and he REALLy wasn't as intelligent as we think. Even this speech is pseudo-iintellectual and obvious

  • Sounds like you just got bored of him.

  • That's right, wsoccer, he did preach love: with little boys. "its a damn shame his support of nambla is even mentioned by anyone" Yes, we should censor that, right? I don't see how you figure he rebelled against an 'oppressive world.' In fact, I think sexually abusing children is pretty oppressive in itself.

    Ginsberg only recycles things that are self-evident to a true mystic, but to an acid-head, everything appears so profound, doesn't it?

  • Oooh, Ginsberg tells everyone how we're all one. Whoopidity doo. That's kid stuff. Anyone with a properly functioning brain should have figured that out on their own by the time they hit puberty.

    Ginsberg is a pseudo-intellectual. This guy supports NAMBLA as well. He support child molestors, and that's just a fact. Personally, I think he should be put up against a wall along with every other degenerate.

    Why? We need to cleanse our collective unconsciousness.

  • where do you get this information about him supporting NAMBLA or child molestors???. Please show some sort of documented evidence that he "supports child molesters" or NAMBLA?. Just cause he was an open homosexual in a time where it wasn't socially accepted,doesn't make him a pedophile.

  • Allen Ginsberg: "Attacks on NAMBLA stink of politics, witchhunting for profit, humorlessness, vanity, anger and ignorance." Ginsberg is a card-carrying member of NAMBLA. He's advocated NAMBLA in interviews and in a documentary on NAMBLA. Ginsberg wrote an essay called "Thoughts on NAMBLA." He is a pedophile, and he supports sexual abuse on children.

  • Allen Ginsberg openly supports NAMBLA, this is a fact. Research it yourself and einsatzdeath just gave you the facts as well.

  • he supports NAMBLA for its freedom of expression: the unity of sexuality between child and adult. However, i think this is open to much abuse, Allen Ginsberg is exercising his free mind, and he is indeed regardless of this: a fantasic poet.

  • And when you've cleaned your unconsciousness, and the bucket is full of your own dirty thoughts, what do you suppose we'll find? I think that was sort of the point of this clip. Don't distinguish yourself as some unique entity. Ginsberg didn't. I personally don't want to live in your collectively cleansed state. I want Ginsbergs' in the world to disgust or adore. You remember him as a wannabe pedophile, and I'll remember him as a artist who painted with words the oppressive reality of his time.

  • Seems you're just trying to white-wash. If you feel like it, you can remember John Wayne Gacy as a performer and artist who brought joy to people's hearts.

    I don't distinguish myself as unique. I don't even believe in individualism. I will remember Ginsberg as a pedophile trumpeteer. In fact, I'd say that scumbags like him create the oppressive reality of our current spiritual Dark Age.

    Ancient Germanic tribes would drown the spiritually unclean in a bog so their spirit couldn't escape.

  • Thankyou!... I literally almost applaused

  • NAMBLA aren't child molestors, they support what they see as consensual relations with young boys. At least that's what South Park has led me to believe :P

  • YES i love this

    he just gets it..

  • Great Allen!

  • This is not to be judged as true or false.

    It is just one way to perceive the world.

  • we call this a guy a crackpot because we fear him. he isn't glamourized by the goverment or the fricken media because he is ''out of his mind'' thats why society is so fucked. because to understand this is crazy, to take it in, to even try to understand concepts, to think out of the box is shameful. man. this guy is a beast who didn't think of what people wanted him to think or be.

  • God i love him.

  • wow

  • Much like my "descriptive fact" was to you.

  • PS.

    Ignoramus was descriptive fact, not insult.

  • It is very hard to have intelligent debate or conversation with somebody who refuses to cite resources and insults others with crude offensive language.

  • 1. I stated you sources and quotes only for you to say they were "raped" out of context - much like he raped little boys. Read fame and death about being in bed with little boys.

    2. Still haven't received your apology in calling me an ignoramus.

    3. You're probably lying about your health. You just don't want to work.

    4. IF you are dying, don't waste your energy on youtube.

  • **Sigh**

  • 6. The statements below were quotes that if anything were in support of your statements, yet still you foam from the mouth and insult me.

  • Continued...

    It wouldn't be an artistic issue if Ginsberg's work wasn't so concentrated on the abuses of power and the corruption of America.

  • Many apologists have tried to fuzz the edges of this one, usually saying that Ginsberg's support was more a part of a general free speech issue, but here is a quote from NAMBLA's own website

    "Attacks on NAMBLA stink of politics, witchhunting for profit, humorlessness, vanity, anger and ignorance ...

    I'm a member of NAMBLA because I love boys too -- everybody does, who has a little humanity."

  • Mrgyn....He was a NAMBLA member making those comments. Nothing was taking out of context. He was known to have sexual relationships with teenage boys. Most of all, I'm not your mommy, do your own homework and find the sources yourself. You fat fuck. I bet you don't have a job...do you?

  • Astroman:

    1. I never claimed you were my mother.

    2. Ginsberg never had any sexual relations with teenage boys, please state your sources proving this.

    3. You have once again made a personal and incorrect insult towards me. I am not fat, I am actually terminally ill and have trouble staying over 100 pounds. I do not work because I am at home sick in bed on disability.

    4. I've noticed you making negative comments on other Ginsberg videos, which would suggest unemployment and lack of social life

  • And please do not make personal insults towards me, we are trying to discuss not insult.

  • Mrgyn...Your the one who called me an ignoramus.....How soon do we forget? I'll accept you apology NOW.

  • When he proved his point about free speech Ginsberg quit NAMBLA.

  • stating "NAMBLA's a forum for reform of those laws on youthful sexuality which members deem oppressive, (it is) a discussion society not a sex club." Ginsberg expressed the opinion that the appreciation of youthful bodies and "the human form divine" has been a common theme throughout the history of culture, "from Rome's Vatican, to Florence's Uffizi galleries, to New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art", and that laws regarding the issue needed to be more openly discussed.

  • Ginsberg also spoke out in defense of the freedom of expression of NAMBLA.[19]. He defended his membership by stating

    "Attacks on NAMBLA stink of politics, witchhunting for profit, humorlessness, vanity, anger and ignorance."

    Ginsberg stated "I joined NAMBLA in defense of free speech..." In "Thoughts on NAMBLA", published in Deliberate Prose, Ginsberg elaborated on these thoughts,

  • Comment removed

  • wtf is this. whats he talking about.

  • He was a NAMBLA member if you didn't know. No joke. Look it up.

  • Astroman30:

    And have you a clue why he was?

    Foolish comment trying to raise negative emotions coming from an ignoramus.

  • Mrgyn....Well I guess when you sign-up to become a member of NAMBLA that pretty much explains that you are a member. Plus he had made MANY comments on how it's ok for grown men to love little boys. Mrgyn, why are you defending NAMBLA?

  • Astroman30:

    Alen Ginsberg did not himself believe in Pedophilia, he simply joined NAMBLA to show his support towards freedom of choice.

  • So you are saying he never made those comments of supporting NAMBLA?

  • astroman30:

    Did you not read a thing I said? "Which comments" are you exactly speaking of?

    I told you just now, not only did he verbally support NAMBLA he also was a member. He believed in freedom of choice and expression in anyway, but did not participate in pedophilia.

  • Mrgyn......"I'm a member of NAMBLA because I love boys too -- everybody does, who has a little humanity"....That's a direct quote from Ginsberg. He also wrote poems about loving little boys. Why are you protecting NAMBLA? You need to go out and get a real job instead of plomping your fat ass on a computer every day.

  • Astroman30:

    You just took those comments and raped them out of context.

    Can I see a source proving he said that? And if he did say that it is quite obvious what he is trying to prove. He is noting that ones love towards children does NOT have to be Sexual, and his poetry about little boys is mere observation (I have yet to see these poems, so I will count on you to bring me resources proving everything you just said.)

  • a meditation for conscious electronic media watching. so desperately needed nowadays.

  • What a crackpot

  • this is such an honest bit. Just a man in a moment of childlike wonder about technology, which is his reality.

  • The most brilliant mind since Baudelaire.

  • Listen...enough! No fizz bang Hollywood, gives ahh well it's to no way. Use this fabulous medium to 'read' from the heart; Shelley, Dickinson, Whitman, Keats, etc, the list is literally endless, but not immediate -the very point being made! Our eyes are truly opened from the inside out, not from the outside in! The sincerest poet/scribe asks for nothing!

  • if one was unaware of who was speaking, you would think it was a drunk homeless guy rambling bullshit

  • vastly overrated

  • Allen wasn't able to articulate himself too well there. ( lol )

  • He just used a lot of words and didn't say very much. I don't hate Ginsberg, and sometimes I feel he had the right idea about some things, but he kind of lacked the word power to really say anything.

  • maybe hes not trying to say much.

  • yes, i think he actually said alot by saying very little ;)

  • <3 Allen

  • f*ckin' brilliant. he just blew my mind.

  • I like Ginsberg, but this was 1967 and I think we all know about television and "the person on the other side of the screen" fully well. Or maybe I'm missing the point.

  • you are. it's about escaping the false entertainment-reality front that television lures us into, not about the actual physical mechanics.
