Zeitgeist?

[LiquidTheBrit]

About the movie..
Zeitgeist was created as a not for profit expression to inspire people to start looking at the world from a more critical perspective and to understand that very often things are not what the population at large think they are. It's a documentary, really. It covers religion, 9/11, the war on terror, manipulation of the people, and more.

Has anyone else seen this movie? What did you think of it?

To watch it, just go to the website (http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/).
I, for one, want to download it in case the Man takes it down, but it seems the downloads are down. =/

Same here.

And I was wearing my beret while watching it too. (See also: happy place)

However, what most of it (outside of the 1st section) did was reinforce my current knowledge.

I have been wanting to check this movie out but never had the time. I will see to it sometime in the near future. :cool:

O_o wow, I'm surprised this thread is so.. empty. Well, it could be because this forum is based around a foreign comic for 13 year old boys, but never mind that. XD;

I guess the movie DOES have a lot of propaganda in it, but there's another video that's caught my eye.

And this group actually has a website, too.

Based upon their statement and the assumption that there's not many people out there who are purposely going against us, I guess that they're just doing it because they think it's the right thing to do, and that their intention is good yet they're too idealistic. But then again, I ay just be underestimating their ability to be heartless monsters. :3

lol, seconded. I watched Zeitgeist recently and it was a real eye-opener. I kinda wanna look into the religion thing a little more, though. While I am against creationists and all that, I don't completely discount religion. I'll have to do more research, though xp

I knew some of the 911 stuff, but not as much as was presented. Very eye-opening and kinda scary.

we need to increase defense spending significantly if we are to carry out our global
responsibilities today and modernize our armed forces for the future;

this one made babbo rofl. America spend more on defense? We already outspend everyone and they want more o,o?

we need to promote the cause of political and economic freedom abroad;

YES LETS LIBERATE THE SHIT OUT OF THEM!

Don't take babbo seriously (shouldn't be a problem for most), babbo's just always been sorta clueless about the line of thought that thinks of the Regan era as some sorta golden age @.@
