Nazism Today




Just a few days ago I wrote about and extreme case of Nazism present in the eastern European country of Estonia. Yet what I apparently forgot to mention was the fact that this type of an ideology is not limited only to these countries...No. Nazism is a much bigger idea present in very industrialized, first world countries, countries that we would have never thought of as being “nativistic”.
Some people believe that I was simply trying to side with the Communists, the Bolsheviks that took over the poor countries that wanted to be left alone. Well, I’m sorry but what happened ALREADY fucking happened. We cannot repeat the freaking past. Why can’t we just accept this and move on? Ok, I’m off topic now. Where was I? Oh, ok. Well, like I said many progressive and developed countries have fascists among the society. One of these countries is our dear old U.S.
Yes, the country that many consider to be the land of the free, the land of the “American Dream” is a Nazi country. No, I’m not talking about the government, which is a whole different issue. I am talking about individuals that form our society.
First, I must define Nazism. According to Dictioanry.com, Nazism is “The ideology and practice of the Nazis, especially the policy of racist nationalism, national expansion, and state control of the economy”. Well, for now I’m going to discard everything but the phrase “racist nationalism”. Isn’t it funny that a country composed of thousands of different nationalities thinks that it is right to blame everyone around them for their problems?
Not one single person here, in this country has the right to be racist and prejudiced against others. We all come from the same fucking background. Every single one of us had some of our ancestors move to this country in order to free them of oppression. Yet what happens when we come here. We do the same thing that we tried to escape from. Instead of being oppressed, we are now becoming the “oppresses”. We come to this country, we form our little ethnic enclaves, we join gangs to show our unity, we think that our race is much better than the others. Thus, begins the hunt for innocent victims.
That is how little children are killed by drive-by shootings, that is why there are constant fights at schools between to different groups. People re forced to join in “on the fun”. If they don’t they are constantly mocked by the members of their ethnic group.. I know, I’ve been through all that shit.
If any of you have seen the movie “American History X”, you know what I am talking about. Whites against Blacks against the Latinos against other minority groups. The oppression never ends. When we do this, we feel powerful we feel as if we are better than anyone else. That is the reason why some people even have swastika tattoos-by doing this, they want to show how ‘powerful” they are. These people are simply ignorant, sorry little fools. They believe that what they are doing shows pride for their nation. In my opinion, every singly person has ‘a little Nazi’ hiding somewhere inside, just waiting to come out. Waiting and hoping for chaos.

Surrender

Basically, the lyrics to this song summarize my life and my love!

Laying on your holy bed
by the hallowed door
Feeling like an infidel
Not worthy of your call
Tempted by your innocence
Beckoned to my fate
I won't face the consequence
I wouldn't hesitate
I'm a man of flesh and bone
Rapture, rushing through my veins
Passion, flaming, in my heart
Heavenly surrender once again, yeah
Shackled like an animal
Chained to my desires
Just another sacrifice
To love's eternal fires
Tame me with your tenderness
And break my brittle heart
Easily and elegantly
Tear my world apart
I'm a man of flesh and bone
Rapture, rushing through my veins
Passion, flaming, in my heart
Heavenly surrender once again, yeah
We're living in a world full of illusion
Everything is so unreal
My mind is in a state of confusion
But I can't deny the way I feel
I'm a man of flesh and bone
Rapture, rushing through my veins
Passion, flaming, in my heart
Heavenly surrender
I'm a man of flesh and bone
Rapture, rushing through my veins
Passion, flaming, in my heart, yeah

Estonia Accuses Ex-Official of Genocide

How absolutely pathetic. Instead of solving crimes that occurred a year ago when Estonian authorities killed and hurt hundreds of people trying to protect the Soviet monuments from vandalism , they decide to put on trial an 89 year old Soviet war hero. the want to put on trail who fought against Nazis and has about 2 more years to live. Once again, i understand that these people hate the Russians and anything or anyone associated with Russia/Soviets.



Yes, they are accusing this helpless man of committing a genocide!!!! Apparently he had sent over 250 "Innocent" people to Siberian war camps. Honestly, i think that Soviets had greater things to worry about rather than the 'evil' citizens of of Estonia. God, why are these people striving for Nazism. why, while the rest of the world considers those who fought against the Nazis in WWII heroes, Estonia thinks of them as criminals. What has this world come to?

Fascism: reality, not a myth



More that 60 years ago, the world fought one of its greatest battles against evil- the battle against fascism. For over half a century, this ideology has been condemned by EVERYONE, or should I say almost everyone. I know, seems impossible, right? Well, that’s what I thought also before I heard what is happening in some Eastern European countries.
During the Second World War, the Soviet Union took over most of the European countries in order to “liberate” them of fascism and the influence of the Nazis. Contrary to the beliefs of many, the Eastern European countries such as Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia and already Soviet Ukraine had already established anti-Semitic, so called “nationalist” groups sponsored by the SS of Hitler’s Germany. It is quite surprising since that particular area was full of Jews and supposedly had great anti-Nazi beliefs. Well, I guess we were wrong.
AS of today countries like Estonia and Ukraine take pride in the fact that they fought bravely against Soviet occupationists while siding with the SS. Now I understand the strong Nationalistic feelings and the strong hatred for the Soviets, especially Stalin. But the fact that shocks me is that these people actually PRAISE the work of Nazis.
Vandals in Estonia take down Soviet monuments and desecrate Soviet graves. Now if that’s not enough, in Ukraine the other day, former SS veterans were marching down the streets of Kiev. They were joined by Ukrainian political figures as well as Ukrainian pop stars.
Now I understand the fact that these countries hate Russia’s guts. I also understand that they want to get into the European Union as well as join NATO. What I don’t understand is the lack of RESPECT these people have. They praise SS leaders such as Bandera, by claiming that they fought for the country’s nationalistic causes. Now do they praise Hitler too?
It just saddens me that we are now raising new generations of Neo-Fascists, who are brainless enough to believe what they hear, and who now consider Nazis to be the good guys. Pathetic, absolutely pathetic!

Popularity Contest

It seems that in these days, everything is basically a popularity contest.
Just a few weeks ago we had our school elections for the class of '09 representatives. To be honest, neither of the contestants were worthy of the positions, especially the position of the president. Both of the candidates actually sucked ass!
None of the candidates were prepared. the first girl that ran for president, the supposedly popular "gangsta" one was on the student council for only 1 freaking semester, while the other one "just wanted to become the president" (her own words). When my friends and i decided to at least ask each of the candidates regarding their stand on things that have been happening in school at least the "gangsta" one was better prepared. She had come up with some (apparently unmemorable) solutions that were at least much better than asking for the unspent money of the class that was going to graduate this year. According to the second candidate, we were going to "beg" this year's senior class to give us their unspent money instead of making their grad-night ticket prices go down. Ya right, like that's ever going to happen!
Well, as you all have realized this election was just honestly a joke. Who won? the person with no solution to anything. Well, at least she was on the student council for like year...
Just like i said, this election was nothing but a popularity contest. The person who won, did so just because she asked all of her friends to vote for her.. For Chrissake, what has this country turned into???

School: is it really worth it ?



Changing the face of education my ass!
Sorry for my crazy aggression. Yet I cannot help but to let out my negative feelings towards my high school. I must not lie: the three years that I’ve been attending my high school have been the greatest years of my life. However I cannot help but to become outraged by the pretense of this school. While the administration sits on their asses, trying to come up with the most outrageous and inconsistent rules on this whole wide planet, all they care about is the status of the school. Not the well-being of their 4000+ students, not the well being of the faculty, but the ‘well being’ of their wallets.
Yet I must say that I cannot solely blame them. The full blame must fall on the goddamn society. The society that dictates how we must act, what we must wear and what should we do/not do. The society has turned a once intrinsically motivated youth to brainless zombies whose only goal has become the attendance of a ‘good’ college. While we are still in middle school, we are constantly ‘grilled’ by our parents, teachers, etc., regarding our acceptance to a good college. It seems that our need to learn just for the sake of learning has been replaced by our desire to fit in.
You are labeled a “failure” if you even get a “B” in school. The school that is supposedly “changing the face of education” simply gives up on you, since they cannot get money for a “failure” like you. Thus, you become the outcast of the society that actually constantly pressured you into doing things that you might not have necessarily wanted to do.
You are pressured into taking all these extra AP (advanced placement) classes just so that colleges will at least review your fucking application. What seems to be worse is the fact that even if you try your hardest to get those good grades, you take all those fucking AP and honors classes-colleges like UCLA and USC don’t even look at your fucking application. Even worse than what I’ve described, instead of your hard-working ass, some stupid football jock or a dumb cheerleader get into college, even though they have a GPA of 2.9 while you have a GPA of 3 point fucking 8.
Whoosh, enough ranting for now. I feel exhausted!
Oh and by the way, this is NOT the end of it!

Depeche Mode


Well, my very first post on this Blog should be about Depeche Mode. Honestly, I owe it to them. Without a doubt many of you will soon consider me an obsessive freak. Well, I am obsessive, but I’m not a freak. No, I’m just horsing around. Ok, back to the topic. As I was saying, Depeche Mode has been my life savior. Honestly, their music has saved me from making the stupidest mistakes in my whole entire life. It seems that without Depeche Mode, I am nothing. As a fellow Moder of mine once said “Depeche mode is like the soundtrack of my life”. Indeed, the music of that band has apparently been the inspiration for everything in my little, pathetic life. It seems that somehow, their every single song has related to the things that have been happening to me lately.
As a child, I was “forced” to listen to Depeche Mode by my beloved mother. I am ashamed to say that I practically hated them. Every time she played “Everything counts’ I wanted to run out of our flat screaming. Yet I think that as I grew a bit older, I acquired taste! The once detested “Everything Counts” has become one of my favourite songs, to which I can dance to all night long.
The one song that turned Depeche Mode from a “band that I just like” to basically the thing that defined my life, was “Surrender”. Once I heard the first chords of the song, I knew I would never be able to live my life the same way. I was captivated and I would never be the same…there is so much more to say, Honestly, I can spend my whole life talking how much Depeche Mode has helped me when I was going through things that half of you would never even dream about in your nightmares. So I am going to keep it short and just say “Thank you” to the best band in the world.
