Social Justice Defined

[kenny]

This short video explains this term which is appearing in a lot of organizational mission statements these days, and why it's "Orwellian".

I am going to run my mouth a little here but first I have to say I didn't finish the clip because I can't stomach the media or government anymore and I hate hearing about this stuff because a while back I figured out that there's nothing we can really do at this point (if you disagree please enlighten me)
Now, for social justice.
How convenient! The lazy , weak crybabies who've set us in this downward spiral who are afraid to EVER see anything as how it is because it might hurt someone's #$%&@!$ feelings have now invented a new way to say YOU OWE US AND YOU HAVE TO GIVE US WHAT YOU HAVE BECAUSE ITS UNETHICAL ON ANY CHOSEN LEVEL FOR YOU NOT TO!
This is again another thing that make me want to grow my hair out just so I can rip it out again .
The most frustrating thing is that common sense and logic (f#$% how it makes you feel) would as usual be a simple fix to all this.
You wanted freedom to go and earn for yourself?
Well we did and we got it but then the weak, lazy, stupid and unwilling to even try laid around and made excuses because they're idea of freedom is simply the root word "free" gimme free!.
These liberal Democrats saw an easy vote and pandered, they saw easy excuses for tax money and subsidiary funds and we look at Detroit as an example of what this gets you BUT STILL WE ARENT REALLY ALLOWED TO SAY WHY AND, WHY?? the very topic of this thread is why.
Its the idea that you can demonize those of us who do well for ourselves, who prosper and better our communities and penalize us, take from us because someone else screwed up and not just once but EVERY TIME AND AGAINST ALL WARNING. And we owe them?!
They're going to put this redistributed wealth to proper use?
Yep , I can see the light... wait! That's just the fallout.
Think I need to lay down.

Well , SALTYBASS , tell us how you really feel , HAR ! There's a lot of talk out of Washington about " income inequality " and how some people make more money than other people . Well , duh , it's a result of decisions and choices people make . Stay in school , work hard , get an education in something that allows you to make a living . Life doesn't guarantee you anything . You have to earn it . Just because you are on the planet doesn't give you a right to anything . The dad gum Vietnamese came over here to the land of opportunity and in large done well . CRIMINY , the country has a give me attitude that isn't warranted .

Show other people the video especially younger people, because by the time another generation passes (mine) no one will remember what this country and freedom was like.

[SaltyBass]

Kenny, I'll forward it to as many as I can.
I guess that's part of the reason all this stuff gets to me so much.
I'm almost 29 and I'm completely ashamed of my generation for the most part and have no hope or reguard for the ones that follow me.
I feel like the few of us who still understand , I guess I'll just say "reality" for lack of a better term and to save some cyber paper from another one of my rants- those few of us are so screwed and overwhelmed .
Its like being in the backseat of a Prius headed for a brick wall with a cliff directly behind it while you scream at the driver to stop and try to reason with him but oh well, they don't see the bricks.

I watched Elysium in theaters with a crowd around my age and I stood up at the end and wondered a loud " wonder how much Obama spent having this piece of blank made?!" No one seemed to understand my point of view at all or see anything wrong with the message.
If you haven't seen it save your money. If you want the rundown on what its about let me know.

I like this SaltyBass fellow!! He's got his head screwed on correctly!!

BTW, SaltyB, once ya get over 40, ya really can't stand all the sheeet ya see and hear about Gimmedats and hands out waiting for free shieet. Likely because that's when ya start making enuf $ to realize the Gummint just gives it to the scum of the earth while digging more outta your wallet. Seems like Obama wants to reward laziness-but what the hell do you expect from a SOB MOFO POS Crooked Bastage that NEVER held a job in the private sector and always sucked off the taxpayers money to survive. It's easy to be a socialist when ya live off other people's money. I hope he farking chokes on his meal at John Eddie's tonite and spews puke all over Reid and Pelosi. Better yet, I hope Pelosi has sex with Obama and then Obama does Reid. About time they screwed someone besides taxpayers!!

[SaltyBass]

HA! Robalo I think I got a beer or two with your name on em whenever you're ready.
I honestly fear what I'll feel like at 40 if I feel this way now.
I'm the youngest in the shop I work in and they all say I'm a mean arse old man now. But hey, a lot could happen between now and then(a hint of optimism?)
