As long as I haven't seen the movie or any reviews about it i can't say that it would be hypocritical. Maybe he criticizes unregulated capitalism or other certain points of it.
-
-
Which would be rationalizing his gratuitous profits.
Protesting all capitalism except the kind that makes him rich.
-
We'll see. I'm not going to make assumptions, that would make me look stupid when I am wrong.
-
Yes let's not jump the gun and say Micheal Moore is going to put stupid shit on a DVD and sell it for millions of dollars.
Edited:
That would be presumptuous.
-
YOu are right. Assumtion is the wrong word. Presumptions would make me look stupid. Well, learning more english every day.
-
Too bad all his documentaries are either stupid or boring as fuck. If not both.
-
There is nothing else anyone can add to the subject.
-
Oh, it's going to be a good film because Capitalism sucks and doesn't work and we really have to find a new system already.
Edited:
Um, being against Capitalism doesn't automatically make you a Socialist/Communist but hey, it's not your fault, it's the age old and average american view of life.
If it ain't capitalism, it's communism. Hurff.
I, for one, reject them all since they don't work. Communism sucks if you're rich, Capitalism sucks if you're poor but they both suck at staying alive. Communism has a tendency to turn into a fierce dictatorship while Capitalism occasionally just flat out collapses on itself. So while communist countries suffer from harsh politicians, capitalist countries fall into a downward spiral of debt and depression so obviously they both suck pretty badly.
We need a new system.
-
Meanwhile Micheal Moore's bank account inflates with millions in profit.
-
well, yeah
what else would it be then?
-
So?
-
That's capitalism.
-
Definitely a System without money. Money doesn't work. Money corrupts and destroys both Communism and Capitalism.
-
It's funny how he has the gun in his left hand.
-
Yeah. But he can't just get rid of all his money and starve in the streets can he? I pointed that out before. If you want to survive Capitalism, you better gather a whole lot of money. There's nowhere he can go at this point. There is no Island with a new and better System.
-
lol
Edited:
Yes he can. That's bullshit and you know it. If money doesn't work, give away your money. If you're preaching against money, stop taking other people's money.
-
HIVE MIND GO!
Or Anarcho-Collectivism.
-
Clearly you enjoy the benefits of capitalism far too much to commit to fighting against them.
-
what on earth
-
The only thing Moore has done that I don't hate:
I don't hate it for many reasons.
First, because gay rights are something I support so its alright. Second, points out the obvious fact that Moore is an incredible fuckwit. Third, he looks like a bigger twat.
-
No he can't neither can I nor you because we would lead a very shitty life in Capitalism.
I am preaching against money but it's not my fault that I'm forced to use it, now is it? And no, there's no Island I could go to where there's no money because guess what, they cost money. You can't expect me to burn money in a money humping world. We rather have to overcome the monetary system and that's what Moore is trying to do by telling YOU that Capitalism doesn't work. And he doesn't jump to the conclusion that we should all hail Communism. No. It just fails as much as Capitalism.
We need to come up with new ideas.
-
Ahh, yes. the barter system. Because that works so well. Its not like that fails when you try and get it to work on a scale bigger than that of a flea market. Yeah, you could TOTALLY use that to run an entire nation and the world. Money works, just not when you give it to stupid fat fucks who make shitty heavily biased and political movies and their brethren.
-
TYPICAL AMERICAN GO!
Just because I reject the idea of a monetary system doesn't mean I want everyone to be equal.
Edited:
What? No not barter. No trade at all.
-
lulwut?
Even if there was no money, there would have to be another form of currency or a bartering system.
Money does need to be reformed though, considering the points raised in a certain documentry called Money as Debt about where money actually comes from.
-
Maybe you should consider decentralized socialism? In all aspects, a decentralized planned economy, and decentralized government power in the form of workplace democracies or councils (see, Soviet Democracy. Communism in the 20th century failed because of centralized power which formed a bureaucracy that had no interest in things such as democracy. Capitalism fails because it concentrates wealth, and ultimately power, in a tiny 1% of the population. In my opinion, libertarians and other free marketers are idealists because they ignore the reasons why our government has become so 'big'. And it's not because of those damn librulz
-
Where is the motivation to do anything if there is no trade whatsoever and nothing to earn and measure your success with?
-
Mike is now a hero in my eyes.
He trolled christians.
-
Thanks but I'm going to stick with what works rather than governing the entire world on what an internet 13 year old thinks is a great new idea.
-
1. I'm an Irish immigrant.
2.It was a joke
3. That is a bold statement from somebody called "Drive_the_hive"
4. I never said you wanted to have everybody equal.
-
And yes, I can expect you to stop profiting on the system you chastise.
-
:dogout:
capitalism is really working well at governing the third world, which holds the majority of the world's population.
-
I hate Moore's guts.
All 800 pounds of it.
-
I just Moore, he's so troll for all the right reasons.
-
Yeah and socialism totally works too especially when the massive institutions it supports totally survive for longer than half a century
they know how to farm
people never go hungry
-
how the fuck would anything like that work AT ALL? People want something for things they do, we're people, not fucking ants. They want an award for the thing their doing, they're not gonna do anything if they don't get a single thing out of it. IT'S BASIC INSTINCT! Unless you have some sort of fucked up plan to change our genetics to be more colonial like ants (thus getting rid of our individuality and almost everything that makes us human), other whys it won't fucking work!
Don't talk about what you believe should happen with out thinking about it first!
-
OH DAMN yeah I said it
Maybe if you enjoy having your country run by a bunch of fucking idiots who don't know how to farm you can move toward a socialist approach.
-
Too bad that will never ever ever ever ever ever ever work. People won't work for nothing.
-
Because socialism has a MUCH better track record than capitalism RITE
-
Then people wouldn't do anything, they would just steal.
-
It has worked in large parts of europe for the last century.
