Reminiscences of Hard Times to Come

here is a true story.

it happened in 1930s in ukraine. the government took most of the grains from the peasants. this naturally resulted in a country-wide starvation. one day a newspaper reporter goes into one of the houses in a village. he knocks on the door and enters. a woman dashes out of the corner. the reporter curious comes to the bench where she has stood doing something. he realizes that she has just killed her baby and has been sucking its blood...
 
Mykhaylo Naumenko was 11 years old in 1933. His father was executed for refusing to join a nearby collective farm. Mykhaylo was left with his mother and siblings to face the famine without a provider. He said people were shot for trying to steal grain or potatoes from the local collective farm, which was surrounded by barbed wire and guarded by armed men. He said people were executed even for trying to pick up a few loose seeds dropped on the ground.

"A tragedy developed. People became swollen, they died by the tens each day. The collective farm authorities appointed six men to collect and bury the dead. From our village of 75 homes, by May 24 houses were empty where all the inhabitants had died."

Naumenko also witnessed instances of cannibalism. He said he first discovered that his neighbors were eating human flesh after one of them, called Tetyana, refused to share her meat with him despite the fact he had just helped bury her father.

"I saw Tetyana eating chicken meat and saw there was a lot of it. I approached her and asked her for some, but she refused to give me any. Because it was human flesh."

here is what I don't get

WHY THE FUK WOULD YOU WANT TO SURVIVE in a place like that

I would rather roll over and die than live in shit like that

if you can't escape, then put a bullet into your head and leave

you have a point here, but this type of questions people start asking ONLY AFTER they made it through. while inside the mess it is just the pure animal instinct that is driving them.

once you are in a place like that, it won't feel so bad being there, right now you are looking at it from the outside, once you are inside living it, it could feel good, patiently watching your kids die from hunger and then eating their flesh, I think the younger ones will taste better, maybe you can have your neighbor come to your place for dinner, you can tell him you're gonna be cooking your daughter, he'll be delighted to join, then you can kill him and have them both, and don't forget God will be watching and drooling over the delicious food you eat

As a side note:
as far as I know all governments make it illegal for hospitals and clinics to offer 'an easy and safe departure' service for willing customers

the whole process can be quick and cost very little; inject a chemical so the person can fall asleep and die within minutes, shred or burn his body, dispose of his ashes

as much as it is wrong to kill someone who wants to live, it is wrong to force someone who wants to die to live

it's sad that we permit governments to have so much control over our lives, in the end we all pay for it

Look at Bush and the Patriot Act... and NObamanomics Socialism... Gummint always wants more control over people's lives and their assets.

In spite of the fact we "vote", in reality we are powerless to prevent it..... until 100 Million Americans "get it" and use the force of their numbers to initiate REAL change.

Never happen in your lifetime. :(
 
It is insidious. We are programmed from early youth. Eat this long shelf-life hybrid tomato whose seeds will not regrow itself. Pay for this thing tomorow that you cannot afford today. Become excited by this artifically inflated woman. Proclaim your status with this watch costing 1000 times the worth of its functionality. Buy this luxury car with power accessories so you won't have to bother with setting the seats or the steering wheel. Buy and hold.

it's not just americans, it's humanity in general, they love being raped by a fat ass donkey

time and time again, humans didn't take control over their own lives, they gave it to someone else, they just have to

how do you think mofos like lenin, stalin and their pathetic like came to power in russia

what are and were leaders of most countries other than some fags full of ego and shit

all these mono-legal systems; communism, socialism, democracy, etc etc, have and will continue to f_ck their people over, because people are stupid, people are looking for a shepherd like a dumb mf, they want to kiss his butt, they want to talk and think about him day and night, they want to make him important, because they are void, they are empty, they are dumb
 
Isn't a definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over expecting different results? If you don't "get" how to behave on ET and keep getting banned, you're either insane............. or just plain stupid :p



Quote from infinity:

uuuuuu careful if you go down that road you end up being kicked out of ET 20 times

you'll end up saying things like if mods could trade they wouldn't be mods etc etc


one thing will lead to another, and you won't belong :cool:

Quote from Neodude:

This didn't happen in the US, but I remember:

1. Getting a grapefruit for Christmas and being happy.
2. My mother cooking kidneys (Imagine the house smelling like piss all day)
3. Using pork fat as a bread spread (with nothing else on it).

America doesn't think life can get this bad, but it did in many parts of Europe in the 70s and 80s.
