dude that posts on the Wu-Tang forums just came up with a pretty fuckin good idea:
QuoteI've noticed that there's a lot of little kiddy gang-bangers on myspace. Wether or not they actually manifest their gang life outside the internet is irrelavent. The fact is they're ignorant enough to make a myspace about it and dwell in the mind state daily.
My Propostion:
A lot people here like to argue over some bullshit, but in reality some of you are level headed. I say we put our differences aside for the children, just for moment and save some beautiful minds.
If you find a little gangbangers myspace account, post a link here so we can collectivley add them in our circle as a community, and we'll bombard these kids with postive encourgement and reinforcement, but most of all truth. And cut the strings of the puppet master.
The idea's there, I can't do it alone, if your down we can put this together.
here is the original post:

lemme know if anybody is down for something like this
seems like this idea sort of fits in with some BIP intentions
also - that Wu-Tang forum can be pretty interesting at times

Your not sarcastic, are you?
I'm down.
there's nothing like encouraging kids
they're the future, you know
Aren't you a "kid" yourself?
Somehow i got the feeling your like 17-18?
No, that was not meant as an insult.
But, do you need help?
Do you want us to encourage you?
Give me your adress and i send Roger over to you :lulz:
you may even chose if i give him the whip, the sword, or if i simply take of his clothes (i remember him saying something about his furry ass)
not encouragement to cut neighbors lawns and help old women cross the street
encouragement to not be a sensitive knucklehead wannabe thug
I don't understand why this idea is being ripped on. The youth are the future and if we ignore them like the rest of the world just color us all grey and close this place.
I can't think of any better endeavor than helping kids not grow up to be stupid fuckheads.
it's generally understood to be a hopeless mission.
which is why i endorse it.

I can.
But I can't figure out how to get the nuns in the milk-jugs.

Slice, dice.
Rinse, repeat.

Keep at it.
LHX,
I think it's a great idea. Keep us updated and if I can lend a hand I will.
Its naive to think you can open kids eys with some threads.
They prbly come here for the lulz, spam some shit and leave farewell.
The only way you might be able to get some sense in their heads would be personal contact.
So it would be a better start to encourage PD members and others to think about that.
Start with relatives and shit.
Spread the word.
And keep roger away from the innocent children.
It's spelt "Naive".
fixed thx

What's naive is giving in to apathy and thinking you've made a smart move.
Most people who read forums are looking for ideas or discussion.
Personal contact is superior for communication, but inferior for reaching the right people efficiently.
It is never too early or un-worthwhile to teach self-respect.
What word are we spreading? I spread confusion and encourage independence.
Start with the first fucker you come across, and don't stop until they kill you.
Personally, I would be a much cooler kid if I had some Roger exposure as an "innocent child".
Just saying.
Felix, I raise my glass to you. Nicely put.
You made a point.
But still, most ppl dont spend to much thoughts on what they read in forums. Sure, there are exceptions fex the PD forum, but even here, there are just a hand full of ppl active.
QuoteStart with the first fucker you come across, and don't stop until they kill you.
thats what i do, with all the ppl i come across. But i find it hard to do that in forums, or chats, especially when the used language is english - or scottish :lulz:
QuotePersonal contact is superior for communication, but inferior for reaching the right people efficiently.
Who are the right people? And what is efficient?
You will reach much more people, thats for sure.
I can shout my guts up in a public marketplace and get funny looks, or I can shout my guts up on an internet forum and actually have people approach me with relevant ideas.
That's efficiency.

What he said.
I've started haranguing the people I pull over about "Bob".

Sure beats just giving up and saying it won't work.
srsly tho - what is more enjoyable than watching things grow strong?
there is a reason why blowing a load feels so good
hmmm i guess if it works RL it should be working here as well, at least a bit.
So why not give it a try.
thx guys.

yeah seriously. discordians are supposed to be good in introspection/htinking/observing what happens right?
well, just plunge in and get to it! if it turns out not to work, stop.
's better than just sit and argue "nah not worth it".

but you sort of have, right? i mean you were 17 when you joined these forums or not?
there is no way most kids would hang around here, put simply despite the fun stuff, it would be too boring.
I used to do this on gaia, when I found out I was really good at getting people talking, I used to help em though issues and shit.
then I stopped because they were all so needy and would IM me constantly, the moment I would come on.

True, but I was away for two of those years in between.
