mockingbird_franklin Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) You'd have to be a total plonker to believe that there's a solution to the fact that "life ain't fair". Maybe you'd have to be incredible dumb to not make consideration and think beyond just thinking 'life aint fair' so live with it and to hence not ask the the question of as to why 'life ain't fair'. Throughout history lots of solutions have been found to make life less unfair, to deal with unjust and immoral situations and change things to make them fairer. Right now we have politicians who are steadily making much of life even more unfair, seemingly by the day, surely it is only right to raise concerns about such issues, but I'm interested as an obvious expert on the subject of the fairness of life please tell me what is the natural level of unfairness that life should entail?

mockingbird_franklin Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) anyway carry on .. I just thought I'd add nothing to the conversation So no variance from the normal then? In answer, Only as dumb as someone who, on reflection, tempered their insult and in doing so failed to change incredible to incredibly. But don't let me get in the way of your trivialisation of the question. I guess from reading many replies on this topic reflection is in very short supply for a great many posters.

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) It is funny that the people who regurgitate the line 'life isn't fair & it will always be that way' tend to be the same people who have benefited from it being unfair.

Edit: I've tended to find from my time on here that insults just lead to other insults and the message gets lost somewhere on the way ... hence my trivialisation of the matter in a light hearted way ... I guess you had 2 options , a) laugh it off with a D'oh and blame it on spell checker or my personal favourite excuse the phone keyboard / small screen / being an apple product ... or B.) going for another insult P.S the correct answer was A) Edited November 5, 2014 by tonyh29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people are inherently selfish, and this random concept of 'fairness' depends very much on your viewpoint. So the standard viewpoint tends not be "it isn't fair that bankers who caused the crash get big bonuses while benefits are being taken away", which probably, it might not be, but yet not many people question teachers going on strike for better pensions; strikes that tend to hit the same working families whose taxes are paying their pensions in the first place. It's all self-interest at the end of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all self-interest at the end of the day. But... I think this post has given me an aneurysm. And not in a good way As as for Tony's 'insult'. Good one....? I thought I'd missed a private joke when I read it first, but that's just some very poor internet banter. I like that the people defending Brand have gotten tired of posting in this thread and it's left to the ad hominem brigade to take over and post whatever inane shite the newspapers with an anti-Brand agenda publish. The Brand bashing that you're being exposed to is proof that the man is ruffling feathers and ever so slightly worrying the elite class, although they remain certain they can destroy his revolution with hardly any effort at all, as they control the media that you lot believe to be the authority on right and wrong.

tonyh29 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I always smile when people lap up crap spouted by people like Brand , adopt a " superior " stance and then chastise those that don't fawn over his every ramble as being sheep brainwashed by the media Personally i make my own mind up based on views put forward , be that a failed comedians opinion or some bloke I meet whilst walking to Tesco's I think you do a dis-service to many people on here to suggest otherwise , especially when many of them are capable of getting up on time and signing a registration paper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
