Q. How many Socialist Workers Party members does it take to change
a lightbulb.
A. Four. One to change the bulb, one to write about it for "the
paper", one to sell you "the paper" and another to follow you home and
ask why you weren't at the bulb changing, if you plan to make the next
one and if you were still as committed.

Oh man, I was just on my way here to spin that one lol, didn't look at replies earlier after posting in the music thread with my 3k'th post.
"Gold medals just for surviving the socialist olympics!"
And an "I survived it..." t-shirt :D

'GOLD MEDALS JUST FOR SURVIVING' Twitter hashtag #RioProblems chronicles the litany of disasters and disease plaguing the Olympics (https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/1558918/twitter-hashtag-rioproblems-chronicles-the-litany-of-disasters-and-disease-plaguing-the-olympics/)
Scroll down and read image captions, you just can't make that stuff up! :o

This must be that "agony of defeat" part... except it's the Olympic goers plunging into the sea to their death from a collapsing bike path..

so dumb to host the olympics in shit countries

[Ahldagor]

So dumb to host the Olympics anywhere.

[Baler]

The Olympics is a method from the old days used as a way to distract people from problems.
The same applies to the individual sports that make up the Olympics. Watch the athletic apes battle it out. Don't think about real problems.
Maybe they could throw some bread into the crowd.

why do poor people don't want to pay for us rich people to have fun in their countries amirite

Edward Bernays Book: Propaganda
p59
Who are the men, who, without our realizing it, give us our ideas, tell us whom to admire and whom to despise, what to believe about the ownership of public utilities .. about immigration who tell us how our houses should be designed, what furniture we should put into them, what menus we should serve at our table, what kind of shirts we must wear, what sports we should indulge in, what plays we should see, what charities we should support, what pictures we should admire, what slang we should affect, what jokes we should laugh at?

p60
A presidential candidate may be "drafted" in response to "around popular demand," but it is well known that his name may be decided upon by half a dozen men sitting L.. around a table in a hotel room.

p61
A man buying a suit of clothe imagines that he is choosing, according to his taste and his personality, the kind of garment which he prefers. In reality, he may be obeying the orders of an anonymous gentleman tailor in London. This personage is the silent partner in a modest tailoring establishment, which is patronized by gentlemen of fashion and princes of blood. He suggest to British noblemen and others a blue cloth instead of gray, two buttons instead of three, or sleeves a quarter of an inch narrower than last season. The distinguished customer approves of the idea.

But how does this fact affect John Smith of Topeka?

The gentleman tailor is under contract with a certain large American firm, which manufactures men's suits, to send them instantly the designs of the suits chosen by the leaders of London fashion. Upon receiving the designs, with specifications as to color, weight, and texture, the firm immediately places an order with the cloth makers for several hundred thousand dollars' worth of cloth. The suits made up according to the specifications are then advertised as the latest fashion. The fashionable men in New York Chicago, Boston, and Philadelphia wear them. And the Topeka man, recognizing this leadership, does the same.

Women are just as subject to the commands of invisible government as men. A silk manufacturer, seeking a new market for its product, suggested to a large manufacturer of shoes that women's shoes should be covered with silk to match their dresses. The idea was adopted and systematically propagandized. A popular actress was persuaded to wear the shoes. The fashion spread. The shoe firm was ready with the supply to meet thee created demand. And the silk company was ready with the silk for more shoes.

p63
The new profession of public relations has grown up because of the increasing complexity of modern life and the consequent necessity for making the actions of one part of the public understandable to other sectors of the public. It is due, too, to the increasing dependence of organized power of all sorts upon public opinion. Governments, whether they are monarchical, constitutional, democratic or communist, depend upon acquiescent public opinion for the success of their efforts and, in fact, government is government only by virtue of public acquiescence. Industries, public utilities, educational movements, indeed all groups representing any concept or product, whether they are majority or minority ideas, succeed only because of approving public opinion. Public opinion is the unacknowledged partner in all broad efforts.

The public relations counsel, then, is the agent who, working with modern media of communications and the group formations of society, brings an idea to the consciousness of the public.
The process of supplanting the American citizen with the American consumer. And through this to allow for the few to control the many. Sports has become a commodity, and used as a conduit so to instill the messages of control. But that result is not that you can control, but that you are controlled. That message is not a message of freedom but of submission through unity around a commodity.

Through this cooperation and unity of sports, through it's inherent rivalry for them to tap into, you become bombarded with messages alongside the sports, by the few that control, of which to lead you to what to drink, what to wear, what to eat, what to listen to, what to support, what to think etc. Your very being shaped into that which can best complement their control. Individualism reshaped into conformity.

Now everything becomes teams, with all of it's mere entertaining rivalry. You lose the ability to think for yourself, to think at all. You listen to coaches, you watch your cheer leaders, you take in the cheers and the boos of your fellow fans among your teams section. Yet never to glance across the field to the other side, of which they too are in the same stadium/park receiving the very same messages, doing the very same things, the same thoughts, the same control, but not looking at you either. But all doing the same, the same of which was agreed upon by a few people in a hotel sitting at a table.

Your politics, your governments, your borders, your social interactions, all shaped to within the expected conformity to best rule over you.

It's just remarkable how you manage to fit everything into your 'white people rich and good, brown people bad and poor' racist paradigm

[bdastomper58]

lookup favelas and then tell me brazil has any business hosting any sporting events. their country is severely fucked up and it goes to show the IOC deeply corrupt, much like Fifa.

[Raev]

Would you be so judgmental if white people were involved? I don't think so!

[Jarnauga]

I never talked about races, whites or blacks

Who's the racist now?

[maskedmelon]

hmm, why is racism always tied to dislike? I mean, you can consider one race superior to another without disliking one or the other. Many people have preferences. For example, I kinda like spotted people and I don't particularly like orange people. Overall though skin color is not as important as other features, of which there are many differences among races, some favorable, some unfavorable.

[Sirban]

Can i get a TLDR version

[R Flair]

i wish it was considered racist to use the word racist

[Ahldagor]

Where are the riots? Olympics seem to be going smoothly. Daywolf, Inception Master, educate us for the sake of protection from Moloch.

Missed the vid links in the original post? The smashing and looting of shops, the beating of people, the gassing thereof? Ahhh the little people out on the streets, let them eat cuckold droppings.

recreational drugs says what??? "say what say what? you better watch your fuckin mouth, Jon" - Limp Bizkit/Korn collab

American druggist Michael Phelps has Gold medaled. They said he wouldn't.

That is a huge victory against the war against the war on drugs.

Thoughts?

Rio 2016: Swimmers need to ingest only three teaspoons of water to be almost certain of contracting a virus (http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/olympics/rio-2016-water-pollution-virus-risk-danger-swimming-sailing-rowing-chance-of-infection-almost-a7165866.html)

"A report commisioned by the Associated Press has revealed that water in Rio's Olympic and Paralympic venues holds viral levels 1.7m times what would be considered alarming in the United States and Europe"

:D
Maybe he just wanted to get out of the pool as fast as he could..

Holy shit. What the fuck is going on down there?

Said it better than I can

"I cannot begin to reconcile why the IOC continues to chose host cities that are unable to prove any ability of obtaining a basic standard for visitors and athletes. Bejing was a complete joke. The government had to force factories to shut down, ban workers from travelling to their jobs for weeks and months, and forced thousands of citizens into their dirty waters to scoop out weeds weeks before their games. Rio, lacking the authoritarian government, hasn't managed any of what Bejing did and our athletes will be swimming in raw sewage as a result. Could you imagine ANY of this happening in countries like England, France, or the US?"

Ditto on that sentiment. These are American citizens lives we are talking about. This force-feeding of the 3rd world needs to stop.

Scary truth is that Brazil didn't have the authority to even begin to clean anything. That would be terrifying to me as an athlete. Phelps wanted to get out as fast as possible is right.
