JOAN BAEZ ON ALLEN GINSBERG

[Mrbrbusby]

@Zbean. Yes, most prisons are peaceful you silly man. Isn't it nice to deify people? Accept the fact that she has done a lot for civil rights in your country, but as to Fidel, Ho and Che, she got it all wrong, as did many intellectuals on the Left far more well read than you both. But. . . That this woman was a friend of an enemy of France still makes her a little Mexican piece of jumping shit in my book. Vive la Republique. BTW it's called Indochine, fag.

I agree with Joan too. BTW flagascaro, Ho is a poor choice for 'Tyrant'. There are many many true tyrants but if you investigate a bit you may find there is a good reason why most Vietnamese view him as their 'George Washington'. Seriously! There is also a good reason why Vietnam is an incredibly peaceful, fast growing and fairly un-corrupt society today (vs most places that have been ruled by true tyrants).

[flagascaro]

There is something I never understood about J. Baez. There is no doubt that this woman is a human rights crusader; that much is admitted. But why she never stumbled on the idea that a republic needs tanks and armies to defend civil rights against tyrants, e.g., Ho Chi Minh, escapes me. In contrast, the French Marianne, C. Deneuve, seems to understand this fact without any need of Joan's pseudo intellectualism. See, e.g., the film East/West.

I agree with Joan

I want to learn how to make LSD. If you can teach me about making it, please message me. If you can direct me to a good source of literature, either on the web or in print, please message me. I will share what little information I have learned with anybody who is unfamiliar with the subject but willing to read and learn. Obviously none of us have or will ever synthesize the substance, as it is highly illegal to do so.

Yeah I know this is a two month old comment but I feel this has to be said- if your gonna make LSD you need to be a proper chemist with access to a full laboratory, it's not really something like, crystal meth that you can just make by following instuctions. You may already know this

[tallyrulz]

i agree

[ellyunfortunetly]

Joan Baez is soo coool. eal compassionate spirit. Allen Ginsberg was amazing. We need more of these amazing people in the world

[yexofcalifornia]

Every soul on earth is amazing.

[cactaceous]

Not really. There are a lot of people that through personal insecurities lash out and deliberately try and harm others. It would be great to be so naive but the truth is that there is pure evil in this world. On the other spectrum there's people like Allen, who through liveliness and peaceful diligence try and instill tranquility to the soul.
