Flaming is expected here. If you are easily offended, avoid this thread all together.

YouTube ...I love it for 80's ,music videos, like, "if you like my body, and you think I'm sexy, come in baby let me know!" By rod Stewart

I'd post lyrics but you pretty much got the idea:)


I don't know to whom do you talk, but if you are talking to me, for all story I posted you can find the sources. But, some of them are ''demonized'' from MSM to be the sources of fake or propaganda news (just because they don't follow always the official story, or showing the other side of the story :D ): like RT, Free thought project, We are the change, Global researches etc...

Btw, if you looked on links I posted, the forth one is made by The bureau of investigative journalism, including the video made with the Bell Pottinger's former employee Martin Wells about fake news and false flags they made

And what about White Helmets? Those ''brave and devoted civilians''? They are so good actors that deserve Oscar!

What about car bomb exploded in Bagdad in October 30th and ''killed'' at least eight people and ''wounded'' 30 more? We all read about that as a real news. Btw this article is much better than the previous one I posted, because here you can compare official pictures with security camera footage.

Nice song, btw! :)

My point was not that mistakes are made or in the case of RT you site, out and out propaganda, it's that they can be held accountable in court if they libel or slander someone.

Some guy in Moldova typing fake stories about Hillary Clinton trafficking in small children can not be held accountable.

A blanket statement like the New York Times is all lies is lame. Wait till no one trusts anyone for a straight take, it will be chaos.

major news agencies took a public stance for a presidential candidate. officially endorsing and supporting that candidate.

worst part, the public took it for granted, as normal. news agencies who pride themselves to be biased get away with it. they may not tell all out lies on purpose, but coloring the truth to favor a side is as evil as it gets in news reporting. but who cares, we became cynical a decade ago and it only proves that we were right about being cynical, so who cares.

biased news providers push the people to rely on even more unreliable sources in there struggle to find truth. in there despair to find trustworthy politicians they allow trumps and Hillary's to run for it.

every fact has it's counter fact on the web; every opinion her counter opinion etc. so let us listen to the last time that we rebelled; the 80's with her dread songs of nihilsm and despair. the hope we find in the 60's has gone. the age of idealism and great idealogies died. the 80's express that in many a song (i don't like mondays). after that it's a cynical world that accepts the bleakness of life and covers it up with wealth and health. the songs show these new ideals, somewhere after 2000 a new topic pops up in songs: when well being has gone for some reason life should end. (e.g. when i die young & expressions like yolo) Even wealth and health are exposed as false dreams and abandoned; they won't bring the joy were looking for. it's an empty world were living in.

Still not all hope is lost, we still live! we can decide to be there and make life worthwhile for the people around us. the meaning of life is found in the relationships with one another, caring and being there even when it costs us to do so.

no blame, songs reflect a shared 'state of mind'. they verbalize what is.

the musical development through the last 150 years show how the western world did at that time. from the roaring twenties to the post WWII rock&Roll to woodstock and disco. we feel a sentiment, the artists know how to express it.

the eighties were great and horible; the hippies of the sixties were the disillusioned teachers of the eighties. they taught their lost dreams and in their turn those of the eighties passed that on to the millennials with the addition that wealth and health were also not worth living for. all what is left is YOLO and í don't care listen or skip to 5 minutes into the song
