Im as mad as hell!
    #23851033 - 11/20/16 10:26 AM (7 years, 2 months ago)

I don't have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel's worth, banks are going bust, shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the street and there's nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there's no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, and we sit watching our TV's while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes, as if that's the way it's supposed to be.

We know things are bad - worse than bad. They're crazy. It's like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don't go out anymore. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller, and all we say is, 'Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials and I won't say anything. Just leave us alone.' Well, I'm not gonna leave you alone. I want you to get mad! I don't want you to protest. I don't want you to riot - I don't want you to write to your congressman because I wouldn't know what to tell you to write. I don't know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street.

All I know is that first you've got to get mad. You've got to say, 'I'm a HUMAN BEING, God damn it! My life has VALUE!' So I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it, and stick your head out, and yell, 'I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE!' I want you to get up right now, sit up, go to your windows, open them and stick your head out and yell - 'I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!' Things have got to change. But first, you've gotta get mad!... You've got to say, 'I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore!' Then we'll figure out what to do about the depression and the inflation and the oil crisis. But first get up out of your chairs, open the window, stick your head out, and yell, and say it: "I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE!"

Now I have to get a job that supports me a hundred miles away, can't wait to have kids and tell them "you aren't going to be able to feed your family when your older unless somebody shows some skin."

But, man, you're never going to get any truth from us. We'll tell you anything you want to hear; we lie like hell. We'll tell you that, uh, Kojak always gets the killer, or that nobody ever gets cancer at Archie Bunker's house, and no matter how much trouble the hero is in, don't worry, just look at your watch; at the end of the hour he's going to win. We'll tell you any shit you want to hear. We deal in *illusions*, man! None of it is true! But you people sit there, day after day, night after night, all ages, colors, creeds... We're all you know. You're beginning to believe the illusions we're spinning here. You're beginning to think that the tube is reality, and that your own lives are unreal. You do whatever the tube tells you! You dress like the tube, you eat like the tube, you raise your children like the tube, you even *think* like the tube! This is mass madness, you maniacs! In God's name, you people are the real thing! *WE* are the illusion! So turn off your television sets. Turn them off now. Turn them off right now. Turn them off and leave them off! Turn them off right in the middle of the sentence I'm speaking to you now! TURN THEM OFF...

Right now, there is a whole, an entire generation that never knew anything that didn't come out of this tube. This tube is the gospel, the ultimate revelation; this tube can make or break presidents, popes, prime ministers; this tube is the most awesome goddamn propaganda force in the whole godless world, and woe is us if it ever falls into the hands of the wrong people, and that's why woe is us that Edward George Ruddy died. Because this company is now in the hands of CCA, the Communications Corporation of America; there's a new chairman of the board, a man called Frank Hackett, sitting in Mr. Ruddy's office on the twentieth floor. And when the 12th largest company in the world controls the most awesome goddamn propaganda force in the whole godless world, who knows what shit will be peddled for truth on this network?

No there isn't. You're full of yourself like every other conspiracy theorist. But yeah, you're smarter than everyone else. Keep telling yourself that.

i never said or projected any of that, your just butt hurt that im sharing something that means something to me with all of you because i like all of you guys.

im clueless as to why your butt hurt about it though :shrug:

guess you didnt realize that all those posts are quotes from the movie Network (1976) so if im so full of myself why am i appreciating that movie and sharing it with people i like/care about?

Yeah I'm butthurt, you got me. Maybe if you keep saying it I will melt. I'm glad you're smarter than a whole generation of people or I wouldn't have picked out that nasty Waldo of a revelation.

didnt read my last post fully?

its not me saying all those quotes, its from a movie.

notice the gif in the OP, thats the character who says these quotes.

the ignorant people he refers to arent so much the members of shroomery as the are the greater world at large.

You believe it though, that's the difference. And don't quote shit without making it obvious and expect people to just pull that information out of their ass.

i made it blatant by putting the gif at the bottom of the OP, with part of the quote i posted in the OP in it

also if your gonna say i believe something out of a long list of things i posted in this thread i would appreciate it if you could tell me what specifically ive quoted from that movie here that you think is bullshit?

maybe your forgetting that in the year 1976 the internet didnt exist yet and the world was a very different place, these quotes may ring true today but they were much more literal back then because people used tv a lot more due to the fact that they had practically no other electronic form of mass media.

if each state was it's own seperate entity
then state politics would make much more sense
right now we're confused the picture is too big
there's nothing to rally about or get upset about if there's one big government to blame rather then our own local gov't
dont you get it?

I wasn't responding to the OP. Man, for real your deflective answers are so classic of this paranoid mindset. You'll convince yourself of the truth.
