What the fuck are you even talking about, I was simply responding to YOUR postUzique wrote:
where am i suggesting that i know where they come from? i've said that journalists and the educated try to impose a narrative upon chaos. i said they have no unifying aim or goal. "i guessed" (hint: operative grammar here is the personal pronoun 'i') what it could possibly represent, if you want to do some big-picture contextual theorizing about the socio-economic forces at hand here. that's what all the journalists, academics and reporters are doing today in the media. are they all "trying to suggest they know where they come from"? no. it's just the typical 'find an explanation, seek the story' type behaviour that always happens after a major event. looting and riots are an act of mass mob hysteria, often no real motive or point, just a total social phenomenon unto itself, self-generating and self-regulating. experts will always stand 15 metres back behind the safety markers and try and suggest reasons and 'why's. it doesn't mean they're trying to "identify" and "be down with the kids on the street at all".Vilham wrote:
No actually you said they hadn't put any thought into it and then within the same paragraph suggested that this was there way of getting back at capitalism which would have required some pretty philosophical thinking from them. So whatever you say Uzique.
I don't have a problem I just find it funny that you were trying to suggest you knew where they were coming from.
Anyway whatever, back to the topic at hand.
all i've seen in this thread so far is 3 bitch posts from you because i have the fortune of a back-up job and i'm pretty comfortable. boo hoo. get over it and stfu you immature cunt.
I would have thought your English degree would have helped you assertain that, it was in big quotations. See what is in that quote is YOU suggesting that you know why they are rioting. The fact that you are so far from their reality is what is funny. Deal with it. Clearly too much coke has fucked up your mind.what do you want them to do, write eloquent letters to their local MP? yeah it's stupid but it's all they've got. no organisation, no real manifesto or aim, just a malaise and a 'rage against the machine' type sentiment. destroying a shop is destroying a symbol of commerce, capitalism, i guess.
