[Q]

There are some good points made, but this whole "we don't have the stomach to confront the government and so we won't hit the streets in the USA" is rather stupid, highly defeatist and offers zero strategy.

Your typical conspiracy tinfoil hattist.

[Red_Struggle]

Didn't Celente appear on the Alex Jones show a while back? :rolleyes:

[Rakhmetov]

People of the USA aren't revolutionary. The people of the Third World ARE!!!!

[Q]

People of the USA aren't revolutionary. The people of the Third World ARE!!!!

If you told that to a Tunesian mid November last year, he would have looked weird at you.

[Rakhmetov]

People in the USA (as a whole) are spoiled rotten. They'll more likely riot on behalf of a sport's team than over bread and butter issues---although there are exceptions. There are pockets here and there of rebellion but generally the mood is not a revolutionary one.

Europe's the third world now? :confused:

[Rakhmetov]

Europe's the third world now? :confused:

Europeans are at a higher level of political development/awareness.

[Q]

Which North-Americans are incapable of?

Didn't Celente appear on the Alex Jones show a while back? :rolleyes:

:confused: So? I've seen several figures appear on his show that didn't endorse all of his views. As for Celente, he was on the Alex Jones show to talk about how he believes we'll see the rise of a third party of some kind during the 2012 elections, due to growing opposition of the current status-quo.

[The Vegan Marxist]

Which North-Americans are incapable of?

I don't think he's saying we're incapable of it, but at the current moment, it appears there's more people in Europe that's aware than that of those in the US.

[Q]

I don't think he's saying we're incapable of it, but at the current moment, it appears there's more people in Europe that's aware than that of those in the US.

That's like whining that it is currently raining. Moods change and sometimes they change lightning fast, as I pointed out earlier on with my Tunesian example. I mean, the parliament in Wisconsin is still being occupied and the parliamentarians are still hiding beneath their desks.

[Delenda Carthago]

Yes.This is what we need!A revolution to ask for a bourgeois democracy!

[Threetune]

In revolutionary times consciousness bounds forward. Why would anyone think that a population that has been reared on anti-communism with their mother’s milk, (Europe and USA) would spring up fully formed as revolutionary communists?

[Geiseric]

If anything we developed to sustain our “spoiled” lifestyle, and will riot if the government takes it away :p we're a welfare state, and that was won by the working class during the depression. If anything we're not revolutionary because our grandfathers won it for us, and we haven't had a struggle yet. Even in this recession i've seen more political consiousness built up than before.

You'll be singing a different tune (along with Mr. Celente, who's kind of a crank, honestly) when fuel costs skyrocket in conjunction with basic consumer goods like food. Throw in a general destabilization/devaluation of the currency system and rising unemployment and you'll see how Americans throw down.

I also like how Celente thinks that America will never "let" unrest happen, as opposed to the (more lenient?) authorities in the Middle East, who I guess...let the unrest happen? I seem to remember protestors being opened fire on in Tunisia by police...protests in Egypt being attacked by police and then (once the cops were driven off the streets) by paramilitary goon squads in Cairo...protests being fired on by artillery and machine guns in Libya...and protestors/activists being abducted and enduring horrific abuse in Iraq and Saudi Arabia (who've been steadily preparing for protests). What are the American pigs going to do that is possibly worse than those outcomes?

[MarxistMan]

Indeed, Gerald Celente is right, he is real smart. Like Dr. Webster Tarpley, Paul Craig Roberts and James Petras. I just hope that we have a revolution in USA. The oligarchic plutocratic kleptocratic economic model of Democrats-Republicans are making the lives of most americans a living hell on earth, a life of work, work, chores, chores, paying bills, paying taxes, no pleasures, no fun and then dying.

Thanx for the videos

[CynicalIdealist]

Third worldism? God dammit. You best be trolling.

[MarxistMan]

You are right, and there are about 50 millions of americans living in extreme poverty and about 50 million more living with low-wage third world jobs. But the thing is that most americans are too conformists, they conform to a life of work, work, chores, no pleasures and then dying. Only a few in America live real happy lives like celebrities, baseball players, politicians, doctors and lawyers, but the other USA, the poor USA which is the majority are beating the bullets.

[Victus Mortuum]

Yeah, cause the thousands of Madison protesters (and those thousands in solidarity around the country) are just spoiled workers and students and are totally worthless :rolleyes:

[MarxistMan]

I think that all humans are naturally revolutionary. Revolutionary is just a word for "survival". And most humans have a survival mechanism. What i mean is that americans are not revolutionary today in this year of 2011. But according to the best economists like Geral Celente, Joseph Stiglitz, Paul Craig Roberts, Ron Paul, Mike Whitney, John Rubino, James Turk, Alan Woods of marxist.com the US economy is heading toward collapse and even Ron Paul said that 1 dollar will be worth less than a piece of toilet paper, in other words less than a nickle or a dime. So the US economy will see a real real bad situation and hyperinflation at around 2020, a bit earlier or a bit later. And when that time arrives, we will see americans rioting and rebelling in the streets.

[Left]

I doubt we're gonna see any revolutions, major social unrest and political instability is a possibility though.

Just look at Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal, France, UK, Ireland and Belgium. We need to get the masses out on the streets, which seems like Mission Impossible at this time.

People would rather clench their fists in their pockets, go home, lay in the couch and complain about everything rather than doing something about it.

Our wages, pensions and homes are being stolen right in front of our eyes and people just sit there with their thumb up their ass thinking "There is no alternative".

We bailout the bankers, die for their oil and petroleum and now they say they can't afford giving us a life worth living. Burn motherfuckers.

"None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free." -Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

They are doing a great thing but don't kid yourself; they aren't revolutionaries, nor is anything remotely close to revolution one of their goals. They are simply fighting for their rights (and deserve our support, of course).

But what they are doing should not be compared to a forcible overthrow of the government.
