+6 1. xanonym commented 10 years ago on video God Bless America - Frank's Speech

The "oh no you didn't say that generation" comment underscores what is truly happening in western society. Everyone is so influenced by the media, they can't see it. Our entire value system has become based on what goes viral on YouTube, up-voted on Reddit, and every "reality" TV show. In the very next scene, Frank is fired for sexual harassment for giving the receptionist a book. She interprets that as him hitting on her. He was just being friendly. It's a fact that being friendly over 50 can get you into deep trouble. The freedom of speech remark drives the argument home by his being accused of harassment. It's already lost socially in western society. When a man has to be cautious that a simple smile or polite comment to a woman or a child makes him a pervert, that's paranoia. All these perceptions are fed on by the media because fear sells. And the media is all about pandering fear and superficial entertainment.

+2 11. xanonym commented 13 years ago on video Bystander Effect - people watch girl being abducted

Bystander Effect my ass. This is BS. We now live in cynical times with a social perception that no good deed goes unpunished. Americans are now socially conditioned to avoid getting involved and complicate their own lives - better to maintian a low profile below the radar. I can assure you that no one would get away with this in America in the 1940s when people were still making citizen's arrests. They can call it the Bystander Effect or whatever they want, but the mother put it correctly - people are afraid to get involved. These are the non-social times of indifference we live in now. Get used to it.

Saw the exact same performance in 1987 with Ringling Brs Circus, minus the theatrics. Daring, but nothing original.

So only violence towards women is wrong. It's quite alright for women to be as violent as they wish towards men. Got it! Nice propaganda piece.

+6 21. xanonym commented 14 years ago on video Mythbusters: Are elephants afraid of mice?

The elephants are not displaying fear, they are simply avoiding stepping on another animal - nothing more. Elephants are extremely sure-footed animals with a high degree of situational awareness and careful where they step. That's all.

I have a question to add to that - mrespman. "If a man can MAKE A GUITAR with plywood, dowels, and old radios..." - why can't a person like this be rehabilitated to function semi-normally in society and not give in to violent behavior? I'm sure there's a reason, but I don't get it.
