She is doing what can be done under a horrible system. My point was only to make people aware that these corporations donated the money they stole in the stimulus bill last week.

My point was only to make people aware that these corporations donated the money they stole in the stimulus bill last week. Exactly and I hope that Gaga has the sort of cognitive consonance to realize this and can sense how it looks when she flaunts the fact that she "has Tim Cook on speed dial." I'm not saying it personally offends me but it would look rather odd/distasteful to the majority of the world that is not as enamored with celebrity status. You can already get the sense from some of the GP they're not as enthused by this as they were by, for example, her super relatable and universally acclaimed portrayal of the iconic working class queen Ally on A Star Is Born. No joke but that's part of the reason that movie was so successful, it was very raw and in touch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your comment is very much off-topic. You can't go around saying the biggest 80 corporations in America steal money. That statement is false and furthermore has absolutely nothing to do with a charity concert. You should not post that I have embarrassed myself, your comment is personally offensive to me. Apologize to me. I am again reporting you for being off-topic and this time throwing an insult at me personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wont apologize to racist people who use my nationality to shut me up, then feel entitled to an apology because I told you to stop embaressing yourself for being racist. The entitlement is too much! Then the entitlement continues by threatening me with a warning! I wont get a warning but even if I did, getting a warning literally does nothing. It only tells me I got a warning and then I can start posting again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have nothing against people disagreeing with me but when you take it a step further throwing in personal attacks and bring up my nationality, expect a personal attack back and I will respond in a way that you wont like.

Karl Marx is anti capitalist, im pro capitalism and I did not say I want to change capitalism. The fact he is anti capitalist has nothing to do with his understanding of capitalism, if you read his books you will know how much he knows about capitalism and how capitalism works. You said you have a solution to solve the basic flaw of capitalism, that's changing capitalism. Every political scientists on this planet over the last 100 years want to solve the problem without changing it to a different political system, if you do have the solution, please write your essay and make your name, I'm sure you will go down in history.

Dont project your personal feelings that you cant do anything to change the world on me. I did not even claim that I will or can change anything. You asked me if I had solutions and when I said yes, your brain melted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagzus 15,925 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Chile anyways OT: I’m sure Gaga will have raised millions more by the time the concert starts, I’m wondering what she’ll sing. I feel like SL would re enter the top 5 if she did perform it and it would go with her whole dancing through the pain idea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
