  • the US government has at least 8 youtube accounts to dislike this!

  • I'm confused how is this racist, it show Cyrus the Great in a good light, they didn't say his points were bad they didn't even leave him out. If i was Persian i'd be proud, no wonder people are always saying us people of colour are so quick to pull out the race card, not saying that it is wrong to state your views, whenever you need to use your race as a weapon instead as of a honour go ahead.

  • @elativeful You make a good point, but the main point of the sequence was to show that people don't know, because they take their rights for granted. They are therefore lucky not stupid. But I assume you've already thought of that :)

  • nothing like starting a video by editing a bunch of "man on the street" interviews to make people appear dumb. typical manipulation by the zeitgeist people. They often take things out of context. It is a pity, because they have some good messages, but have no credibility

  • I will not back down I will not give up, be silent or ignored. I am a human and proud of it. I will stand on the tops of the mountian I will will swim in the deapths of the sea. I will stand for freedom and equality, the rights of the human. I will stand out as part of this generation, and not to the international stage and I will not stand up to the world. But I will change it, I will be proud I will fight for equality. For I am human.

  • Human rights weren't born because some guy wrote them down.

    Human rights were granted to us by our maker. Cyrus just enforced them and threw out the usurpers of rights.

    Cyrus just happens to be one of the first people to have written one of the god-given rights down.

    The first written word of liberty, "Amagi", has been found to be 4,000 years old.

    Thus, we know that human rights have existed since before written communication.

  • "Don't discriminate" --- that's not a right.

    "No Torture" isn't a right, either.

    Leave it to a bunch of unelected politicians to come with such a pathetic list of rights.

    Life - you have the right to your life. No one can take this away from you.

    Liberty - No one can take away your freedom of expression.

    Property - you have a right to own the fruits of your labor.

  • Nobody can give you freedom. Nobody can give you equality or justice or anything. If you're a man, you take it. -Malcolm X-

  • @faris0o0 you and me both.

  • unequality IS the natural law. Pretending all human beings should have the same rights, it's great, it's beautiful... but just utopy.

    The strongest ones survive, the other die... or follow.

  • i love brainwash history of u.s.

  • wooooooowww... the first 30 second of this video spoke to me.. it cause saying something to the worle whore when theres some people that dont even know what humar rights are... if i was asked that question i honestly wouldnt know what to say either that just proves we live in a world that controls us and out knowlege.
