we the people - Charlie Chaplin speech remix

charlie chaplin speech remix
by djpe............................................................................­.....from The Great Dictator-
"I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an emperor. That's not my business. I don't want to rule or conquer anyone. I should like to help everyone if possible - Jew, Gentile - black man - white. We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each other's happiness - not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. In this world there's room for everyone and the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. Greed has poisoned men's souls - has barricaded the world with hate - has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical; our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost. The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in man - cries for universal brotherhood - for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world - millions of despairing men, women, and little children - victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people. To those who can hear me, I say: 'Do not despair.' The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.
Soldiers! Don't give yourselves to brutes - men who despise you and enslave you - who regiment your lives - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel! Who drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder. Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men - machine men with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts. You don't hate, only the unloved hate.
Soldiers! Don't fight for slavery! Fight for liberty! You, the people, have the power - The power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful - to make this life a wonderful adventure. Then in the name of democracy - let us use that power - let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world - a decent world that will give men a chance to work - that will give youth a future and old age a security.
By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power. But they lie! They do not fulfil that promise. They never will! Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people. Now let us fight to fulfil that promise! Let us fight to free the world - to do away with national barriers - to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance. Let us fight for a world of reason - a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness. Soldiers, in the name of democracy, let us unite!

You did what the elite do you sensored and ommited the real feelings and thoughts of someone to apeal to as many people as you can. You don't see whats wrong with that.

You sold out to the idealism of God for popularity purposes.

@lema4

Actually, what the "elite" do is to USE religion to fragment and control the masses.

Please keep in mind however that this is a REMIX [note the title]

I will post a link to the original.

Greatness. No wonder they ran Chaplin out of the country. He got it right long ago.

[ollyluvsya]

Most beautiful inspirational speech ever made :')

[weallshallbefree]

@djpe123 religion is just one of the many tools they use to separate and control us. Don't forget patriotism, race, class, the entire idea of a two party political system, the mass media, the music industry, hollywood, and I'm probably missing some others I'm sure.

Hi again my friend (in previous incarnation my uBend moniker was bluensunshine) - really got depressed at the state of the world and whether things like uBend can ever do anything to alleviate the situation... so, I left. However, people like you do light a candle. Goddess blessings.
