Who's the Government to tell us what deserves to be destructed and what is not?

Why is it fair that common folk have to live via salary in the first place? What's wrong with cops getting wounded - cops wound citizens all the time, but we can't have violence going up the hierarchy can we...

These are punks as much as the cops are. Both sides are enforcing what they see as truth. Nobody can know ultimate truth but by golly, if destroying nature/our home is a part of truth then I want out fast!

So do you think that everybody that has been to college lived in a bubble? What about people that go to college in third world countries where violence is way beyond what you can imagine? I tell you cause I lived it. Open your mind and don't criticize just for the sake of it. People mostly comment because they care and they would want to fix the problem. They might not know but they care and that is important. Instead of disqualifying, share what you know and help people learn.

They never quite get around to showing people being terrorized into consuming.

But lots of repetition, and more repetition, and more repetition.

@DeerEatingWildOnions Yes well what is it that you need so much that you have this attitude.......So many times during protests (recently in the UK) looters were stealing just about anything they could lay their hands on...what excuse is this other than they are basically irresponsible and expect everything for nothing.

John Zerzan is SO PROFOUND...

@prozrachno

The main person of this documentary is John Zerzan, promoting a pre-agricultural anarcho-primitivist society, so your criticism of the "primitivism" is rather ironic albeit I do agree with you. Personally, I think a shared self-imposed standard should be set up: attack well known multinational chains, like McDonalds, KFC, etc.

@SatanicCod that;s the sad part. When you finger finger discount at a walmart or do damagae on some corporate building, you're only hurting the workers in the end.

[prozrachno]

I do not agree with "property damage" philosophy. Why do we destroy some honest person's small shop or coffee? This is just primitive. I can't agree with the idea of destroying all that civilization has built so far, in order to start a fresh. This is plain nihilistic and nihilistic philosophy is a rather sensless one. Humanity must change its ways, yes, our mindsets, paradigmas and restructure our societies, but not destroy civilization and return to the stone age, lol

@DeerEatingWildOnions "Cops" are people too. They are manipulated into doing what they do. And you, and everyone else, is manipulated into taking sides.

well u north americans lives so much better than other people in the planet and u are talking about problems and the most of u even now what people at Brazil, Africa, Iraq, India, China get through, so the atention and the help must be focused to this sub developed countries first then maybe care about protests and north american / japaneses and european being consumers. Zarzan is taking this to the extreme but maybe the way the humanity took has no back...
