'After the Rain,' life after Apartheid

I saw the movie and it's really good and yet something sounds
hollow... The speech by Mandela as the movie unfolds is truly
inspiring but WHERE IS THE INTEGRATED SOUTH AFRICA shining through
after the rain?
I hear a lot about the AIDS EPIDEMIC, CRIME, GATED COMMUNITIES (a
sophisticated form of Apartheid) and, of course, POVERTY. Hey, you
find a lot of that in America, so everything is normal by world
standards.
In the movie the black guy tells the white, "My black son will fuck
your white daughter." Oh well, maybe that is happening.

TM is a poor crazy bastard who just posts on his one favorite subject -
hatred of motor vehicles because they interfere with his use of the roads.
His other favorite subject is attacking Christianity. If you respond to this
poor crazy bastard, then you are a poor crazy bastard too.
He likes to reference monkeys and other wild animals normally found only in
zoos because he is most likely a wild beast himself. I think he fornicates
with monkeys, but I can't prove it.
TM should confine himself to just one thread instead of proliferating them
like a poor crazy bastard. He is insane of course. I liken him to the
village idiot of olden times. The difference these days is that no one any
longer recognizes the village idiot because idiocy has become so widespread.
But I will be here to remind one and all of what a poor crazy bastard TM is.
It is mark of My Greatness that I can still recognize the village idiot even
if the rest of you can't.

Communities, and sends the poor into no less infamous Caged
Communities (I hope the name catches on to uplift their image), in the
Netherlands...
"Netherlands to close prisons for lack of criminals"
Actually the name Caged Community is debatable because outside the
Gated Communities, the people live in the cage and criminals roam the
streets. Well, WE ALL LIVE IN A CAGE OF SORTS, except in the
Netherlands. It is a place where many good things are happening, such
as having a place to ride a bike, which is why I advocate the Dutch
model for uncivilized and half-civilized places.
It would be a nice to live in freedom and ride a bicycle knowing you
are not on your own to fight every predator behind the wheel. You can
live with peanuts, and feed no more the predatory Oil Industry.
Think about it, and remember the revolution by name... BANANA
REVOLUTION. ;)

He must have gotten that from a Christian source, who are experts are
twisting and stretching the truth. Here are the numbers of prisoners
per capita. Yes, America is #1 and yet the criminals seem to roam the
streets at will... I wonder what are we doing wrong? Could it be that
we are feeding a Prison Industry? Should it be an industry? How about
the Medical Industry? Has a Christian ever asked that?

In their school of thought, the "forbidden fruit" should never have
been presented to Eve. ;)

Things not seen before:
1- Gated communities galore: symptom of the class polarization and
abandonment of the idea of community.
2- End of "Made in USA": whatever makes a quick buck, even at the
price of making a communist nation strong.
3- Long grinding wars being fought: pushing the limits of the military
personnel to the breaking point and making America hated around the
world.
4- No ideology: democracy is becoming a cruel joke exercised by
ignorant voters, often centered about Christian "family
values" (bullshit) and dirty campaigning (throwing shit) against the
adversaries.
5- New challenges: some smaller but real (like Chavez), some
potentially dangerous (such as an adversarial China) competing over
resources.
6- No hope: Obama was the hope.
Well, the Christians are hoping for Jesus, but I'm hoping for
something else...

The "jungle" is just a metaphor like "Paradise," just the opposite.
There's no need for us humans to live "as animals," looking on our
back and afraid to ride a bicycle. Obviously, we can move away from
this hellish jungle and into civilization if the people that live in
Gated Communities --the movers and shakers-- put their shoulder to the
wheel.

I've never said I live in Tibet. My wisdom comes from Tibet as well as
the mean streets of America. Tibetan Wisdom alone doesn't help you
survive in this jungle.
You seem to be lost in the jungle... Have you thought of a GPS?
