Thank you. BreOl72's link also helped. I think that I was discouraged from looking for an answer from just that Youtube link, with no understanding or context. I simply thought he was some computer game-related person.

I would agree more easily with you if you had used the expression "care more". I do think that those who came before us provide us with guidance, good examples and food for thought. History is important.We must not forget.

Hum --- you are not exactly a forum ingénue, are you, now, Gede?

But if you wish, I will happily translate the lyrics for u.

And now that you finally know, what say you - hanging environmental campaigners is pretty horrible? Or something more indifferent?



Edit: Italics.

Not totally, but I don't consider myself a savant either --- I'm far from that!
I think I was on "gamer mode", and saw nothing that I could perceive as a change of subject. I'm sorry for not being more keen.

I don't want to bother you with it, but if you would provide me with the highlights of the song, I am a bit curious.

I think the world keeps reminding us that it is not a very nice place; and some things defy comprehension, like man's inhumanity towards man.

No, I really don't. Because I have no clue who Ken Saro-Wiwa is.

And since you couldn't be assed to provide even a single link with any information on the guy you can't really fault me for the same amount of don't-give-a-shittery... Somehow I think that you providing information would have been a lot less of a hassle to everyone involved (or not involved as would be the case of certains heads of state)...

There you go. Not that hard, technically, eh? ;-p

But what I find bit unusual is the fact that you care nothing for procedural justness; nor for environmental standards. That is the human consideration.

Care to have the translation, Randalator? You might just have a bit more clue then, eh? :-)
See above, tort1234 - if you like.

Keep beating that strawman, you cute little fuzzy-wuzzy.

RIP. Too bad filthy feel-good shams like PETA get more attention than real environmental activism these days.

I'll always remember Wayne Static.

Just ignore it... When I told her that she shouldn't use the word "cum" (as in "Syrians cum Iraquis", or "what do you care about the letters cum abbreviations") I got the "You have homoerotic fantasies and feel uncomfortable when LGBT people are allowed to enjoy video games too" treatment -.-

So you say - but I doubt you think that Germany has too few refugees - but maybe you are not quite the voting age...

--or more likely feel just a little embarrassed to have voted for fuzzy-wuzzy leader yeurself.

Right? :-) Right! :-D

But that is no reason to wish other nation to do ill.

Is there a legitimate reason why everyone's being a dick to Tstael for making a thread remembering someone he/she admires? I miss a memo here?

Probably not. In my defense - I was remembering someone I admired too, as I had no real input for or against TStael. I lost my capacity to argue a month or so ago (with the exception of my passionate discussion with a certain game dev).

They have a history of making threads/posts about their pet causes, only to greet anything but complete agreement (and sometimes even that) with completely unrelated accusations. That's a quick way to burn bridges, and the moral grandstanding isn't exactly a great way of making friends, either.

So they started this thread already on thin ice with some people.

No no no no, that was much too random and disjointed. Come on, you can do better. Put a little effort in it.
