Love the video, Russel! :)

You are my favorite actor & activist. I wish I can meet you some day, it will be an honor to be in you're presence. Much respects.

Atlast, we hear the words of the wise. So much calls from the past that they tried to wipe away. My brother, your words will be as music to many. I will carry them with great affection & do what I can as we ride the last of this river.

In many ways, once woken from thier illusions, it is impossible to return to the shore & I find myself paddling the canoe through white waters, not alone and learning to sing.

@Kasmir145 I believe in equality too, im just saying youre being disrespectul cause females arent called PUSSIES. IN fact i dont even think you need to ;'worship'' us, but respect us like how would you go and respect men. its not like you walk around and call your mate a dick, cause he has one

[Kasmir145]

@wearepsychotic Oh yeah, of course. Because I don't mindlessly worship women and don't sacrifice myself for their well-being at the drop of a hat, I must be ignorant. Because I believe in equality instead of one gender sacrificing itself for the other, and because I see through bullshit and tell it like it is, I must be disrespectful. You got me all figured out.

@Kasmir145 enough said about you, you clearly just by labelling it as ''pussy patrol'' shows you are ignorant. Also i believe youre gonna get verryyyy far in this world if you disrespect half the human race from who they are and what they go through.

[Kasmir145]

That's your philosophy? Women are these perfect angels that are "purified by the universe" and men are nothing more than vessels to bring happiness, comfort, and safety to women? Can't say you're gonna get much support for that. Besides, our society already engages in enough pussy worship as it is - that's the problem. What good are you doing by encouraging more of it? Its not hard to see why a culture that has such a black and white perspective on gender (and a lot of other things) didn't last.

Respond to this video... Halloween originated from a matriarchal society - the church in order to get a foothold in that society placed one of it's holy days along side to help create the transition to christianity

[rosiethebear300]

@AguilaComandanteDGO That's what he is saying - if we were in a matriarchal society that balance would occur but the patriarch dominates everything in society today hence greed, corruption, wars - he is not talking about individual women that have been living under and influenced in this patriarch culture.

@keeelane He's talking about Halloween not Samhain. 2 seperate things dear.

[keeelane]

actually halloween is linked to the celtic "pagan" festival of samhain as well as probably with many other similar festivals around europe. in finland we had a celebration called 'kekri' - the term probably is some derivative of the ancient indo-aryan word for 'wheel' or 'cycle' ('cakra' in sanskrit); the celebration has a lot to do with moving in cycles. before the church this festival had to do with the ending of the lighter part of the year and the beginning of the darker part (winter).

i'm from finland and i think these parts in europe were one of the last to forced under the christian religious rule. no one wanted to come here cuz there were nothing but trees and lakes here.

it would be interesting to try and find out about matriarchality in here. i'm still not convinced it existed, but i will try and find out...
