Social Trump threatens Bruce Springsteen

<34>
It all just gets so tiresome. We need a reboot with a fresh, younger cast playing the roles. Something. Or tear it all down. Nothing is fine too.
Age has nothing to do with decency, though. Trump could be 40 and he would still be the same scumbag. I do agree that we need some new blood, though.
 
While there's hardline steps that need to be taken before such a situation was to be created. We dont need masters. I dont know about you, I dont.
I don't, been let down by every single one. But honestly, there are too many people that need to be told what to do, whether that's out of their own personal need or because they don't know how to comport themselves. Anarchy would not work in these large societies. Tribal peoples were an exception generally. They had whatever rules they had and if you couldn't handle the few they had, then, out you went, which was almost certain death.

think so? I always notice older men get weird and hateful, bitter. The ones I knew, well, they mainly hurt themselves because no one wants to hear non-stop hate and anger spewing out of them.

I don't think most of us are as nice as we were years ago, I'm definitely not. Life really does a number on all of us. And sometimes people change 180 degrees.
 

Donald Trump has angrily insulted Bruce Springsteen after the veteran musician said Trump was heading a “corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration”. Springsteen made a series of vehement speeches on stage in Manchester as he kicked off his latest tour, arguing that Trump was “an unfit president” heading up “a rogue government”...

“Sleepy Joe didn’t have a clue as to what he was doing, but Springsteen is ‘dumb as a rock,’ and couldn’t see what was going on, or could he (which is even worse!)? This dried out ‘prune’ of a rocker (his skin is all atrophied!) ought to KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT until he gets back into the Country, that’s just ‘standard fare’. Then we’ll all see how it goes for him!”

MAGAts, are you OK with your president threatening an American citizen like this, for exercising his rights to free speech?
He has been soft on american artists/ entertainer in this administration

I miss the days the president of the Unites States would tweet battle comedians Rosie Odonnel and rappers Snoop Doggy dog

Yeah, there's some steps to take before we get to the chance of implementation. It won't be easy, and some uncomfortable conversations will need to be had.

Personally, I feel this house of cards is crumbling. The death throws of an empire. Any outcome is going to be painful and hard.

Do we let that outcome be chosen by the same ones that lead us to the path of collapse? Or do we start trying to enact an idea and plan of the citizens choosing?

Town/city/county has to be the focus. The revolution won't be televised and it won't be at once. It would be small areas and populations. The optimistic outcome is the concept spreads like wildfire.

Will it happen? No. The division has been so deeply ingrained into culture, the embrace and encouragement of mediocrity. I feel it's too deeply embedded in the general public as a whole.

Certainly some people get more bitter and hateful as they age, but I don't think there is a calculable correlation between age and decency/bitterness/etc.

it will fall, i just want to be out of the way at my age. Maybe when I was 24 I'd have felt different.

Where would I go? I don't know, as I told a dentist pal of mine when I told him about the village of my father, "the white man is everywhere" that is the imprint or the damage, lots of dysfunction. So, as they say, "you can never go home".

There's literally nothing stopping you from moving somewhere like a deserted island where you can experience everything you are hoping for.

I don't know, just an observation on the men I've watched age, and myself. I think in some cases it could be past strokes because the two old men I have in mind both had strokes, one was a nice fella at one point in time the other, i didn't know pre-stroke he was always nasty. I didn't try to figure them out when they attacked me the last times we spoke, I just shut them out which really seems to be what they want but they really don't. "can you call monday" (Chuck's final words) and "why doesn't Pete come by anymore" (Ewan's words to my brother. No, maybe I'm wrong but I'm not out to be abused by any more people than I already have, especially for people that want to call themselves a friend. Like I say, they only hurt themselves because we all get old and the more excuses we give people to alienate us, the easier it is not to be inconvenienced by them. I feel guilty sometimes but I also realize I wasn't the one talking shit.

humans don't do well on their own. I wonder why not too but they always say people go nuts without other humans around. but people go nuts with people around too, it's a damned if you do damned if you don't.
 
LOCK HIM UP! HE WAS NEVER ANY GOOD! AND MORE IMPORTANTLY NASTY HUMAN
 
I know he did, and he's always been somewhat political but early on, he wasn't, I'd say he was more limited in his themes and vision up until maybe Born In The USA meaning the oppressive forces were maybe a parent or an employer, he matured and started to see how things are much bigger than that. He's not perfect though, he made the single Born In The USA and played the patriot angle up as well as said that it wasn't a patriotic song, he played both sides. And as he's gotten older, he's gotten more and more outspoken in interviews and more articulate. I'm aware he's always been for the marginalized americans but he expanded that to include marginalized latinos too, the irony to me is, those two groups have been at each other's throats forever.

As for my own feelings, he's just a person and as his fanzine creator, Charles Cross, told me "he's not what you think he is" and went on to explain that by saying, and I paraphrase "people think that bruce is the one exception to rockstars, that he doesn't do things for money and that's not true, the last album was put out to make money" I think it was either one of Bruce's greatest hits albums with the teaser of one or two new songs to make fans buy one more album, or it was the "Tracks" set which was packaged in different versions to make idiot fans spead the maximum amount. He's just a man. To his credit he admits it, "the public Bruce Springsteen doesn't exist".
Bruce has a a really nice lifestyle (ie his daughter's horses) but is a pretty nice dude. He's lived in the same town as some relatives of mine for a couple decades and they've never had anything bad to say about him or his interactions.

I'm sure he is, he's just not what he implied he was. I wouldn't turn on him for anything but I don't need him as the figure I used to need him for. Charles Cross? He followed Bruce around which would irritate anyone so I think Bruce might have finally done something to piss him off but I don't know. One day he's only writing about Bruce like a fanatic and then he pretty much just led a seattle music magazine for the next many years and wrote books on other rock legends which he really didn't seem to be hyperinterested in. They say he wasn't interested in Nirvanna during their early years but he wrote a couple books on Kurt. So, I don't know what went down between he and Bruce, but I suspect something because he never had a good word to say about Bruce in later years, not one.

As rockstars go, Bruce is about the best they'll get most likely. Typically they are egomaniacs who raise hell throughout their lives so, he's not that.
