You guys are like babies who think its your personal crusade to "educate/inform" everybody about the nonsense you've been taught. Do you not think that that 80-year old man who is poor as dirt and has never attended any type of school is really as dumb as a door-knob. Experience in life teaches you much more than a-hole professor. Though he may not articulate it in fancy terms, that man who you think is a nobody holds a lifetime's wealth of knowledge, experience, and wise teachings & sayings.

The irony here is much too strong too ignore! Here we are talking about individual freedoms and liberties (particularly freedom of expression), yet we have censorship!!!! What in the hell!!

And here I was preparing for an intellectual debate but who am I to debate with. Some recent college grad who thinks he knows everything in the world after taking one course taught by a professor with a clear agenda.

Russia needs a savior. What has the intellegentsia ever done for Russia apart from producing that sick man Bakunin. The intellegentsia have always considered themselves a separate class in Russia, as the "enlightened" ones in a place full of idiots. The only thing they brought was choas, disorder, and bloodshed for what freedom of speech? Who cares if you have freedom of speech when you don't have a tongue to talk with, a hand to write with. Who cares for these freedoms when you cannot use them.

[ElDoombot]

Loved this segment of the show. This song is an incredibly well executed pop tune.

As for the dude being cynical, like he said, he's a professional and can write whatever you want.

[sanfranciscosearcher]

That's some disturbingly slick propaganda. Can't get the song out of my head. What a cynical songwriter.
