most of my videos would probably be considered fluff. but not every one of them. my most viewed video is of a pit bull and a cat playing. i have some vids that are more substantive. but, they don't get nearly as many views. sadly, fluff is what the people want. btw, i am a Christian. but, i am not here to push my religion on anyone. :)
Although as a civil libertarian, by US standards anyway, I have different views to you on certain issues, I've subbed you for this video. youtube can be extremely vindictive in its responses but those people are rarely worth acknowledging, otherwise we find ourselves at their level; as distinct from a someone arguing aggressively and passionately about a subject, which can just show a depth of conviction. I have appreciated listening to your perspective on several issues and look forward to more
Look at the medium. People say things on the net they'd never say (or even think!) in real life. Sometimes people are assholes,next day they're going out of the way to help a poor person. problems come in when somebody looks at another person as sort of this monolithic thing called "asshole",which cannot be imagined as potentially different in another context. Most people aren't really "jerks" so much as they just fall into the roles. How they're raised, what they're after, etc.
I was watching Larry King last night and Bill Maher has made a new movie called "Religulous". Gary, I don't know if you are famailer with the comedy acts of Bill Maher, but he's one of the more known popular atheist in modern-day pop culture. I can't wait to see his take on how ridiculous religion is. I think the film comes out in October. I'm sure church's everywhere will protest the movie....which should in return make it a big hit.
the "go to your windows" scene where everyone is yelling "i'm not gonna take it anymore" was too hopeful. too cheezy. i thought best to leave it at him telling them they had to get mad.
It's interesting how some of your haters with sweeter personalities DO or SUPPORT worst things done to you,than you done.Your bud rozeboosje for eg. That sweet now supports the nazi/hitler games & he contradicted himself about "helping u" when he was calling u worst than deniers.But he is a lovely kind looking ahole. Lots of your haters are outwardly lovely people compared to u:You can be an ahole,but I seen crazy looking criminals with more real sincerity than some of these sweet peeps.
I always enjoy your philosophy. Truth first. ...bullshit second - lol j/k. Yeah, it's a pain in the azz trying to attain constructive debate and philosophy with all these ppl trying to jump all over you(and others) every little chance they get. It's like they see you as the top dog - the one to beat or something -- competing - but it's not about games -- there's real thinking to do and real solutions that come from that thinking.

propaganda, memes, control, human nature.
glitches, deja vu, pseudo-science, vampires.
perception, systems, users, programmers.
comedy, tragedy, drama, pure entertainment.
...
story-tellers visit the digital campfire.
a continuity is woven, comes to life.
blessed are those who hear these tales of adventure, even as they repeat them (and mess up the storylines, getting the facts wrong).
fate, it seems, is not without a sense of disturbing irony. the question remain the same: what is the

In general, people do suck. Everyone should try to be better. On a side note: Phantasmagorical is the funniest word ever invented.

Two categories of YouTubers?? It's simple...
cat. 1) unblocked
cat. 2) blocked
It's easy to see why 2bsirius is in category number 2...she's a nitwit...somebody should throw a tomato at her.

of course; that is what my video experiments where... to see exactly how people suck.
i make no claim at having deep videos; i was simply interested in how different topics would emerge.
