		<description>Well, Sarkozy is a dictator, just like his mentor, Berlusconi (whose company Mediaset sued YouTube for something like 500 millions €), while Obama understands present times, he talks to people using the Internet, uses Creative Commons, here in Europe we&#039;re back to witch hunt!</description>

Maybe so, but I must also say that I do not think of myself as important enough a person, such that I have to be careful and diplomatic about everything.

Firstly, you may think it is important for me to conduct myself, but I disagree. I do not seek to be the politician. I have a better impression of Rosa Parks than JFK. I have a better impression of John Brown than Stephen Douglas. There is also the impression of the French Revolution in my mind. These things, the French Revolution, the Civil War, the Civil Rights Movement - where is the compromise, the empathy for the tyrants, the slave-holders, the racists? There is no sympathy. Compromise is not the way to do things. There is no compromise with tyrants, with racists, with slave-holders. The only way to deal with them is through the force of the popular will.

&quot;You are just a single person. A single person is unimportant. Why is there a need to be diplomatic about a single person? Besides, I am a single person as well.&quot;

You can argue that a greater number of the population is relatively unimportant. But there are indeed single persons with substantial influence. 


&quot;Perhaps large groups need to be diplomatic towards large groups, but not individual-to-individual. As such, there is no need for diplomacy; only insults.&quot;

Please explain yourself further; I&#039;m not sure I follow your thought. How can a dispute have any hope of compromise, with neither of the parts having sympathy for the other? 
I think you need to revise your logic to at least have some elements of empathy.</description>

		<description>Roze, you&#039;re still not making any sense. You never provide reasons for your opinions you just make statements as if the reasons are inherent but with you, because of some unfortunate combination of drug addiction and genetic disorders, they aren&#039;t.

&quot;You are an idiot anyways.&quot;

Why are you calling me an idiot? Does being just a little bit diplomatic make no sense to you? I think you have misunderstood my writing.
-
&quot;Why should anything get beyond throwing insults?”

What’s your point in asking this seemingly philosophic question? Are you trying to lead us into a dark and confusing line of thought, opposing the relatively pragmatic TorrentFreak comment-section? 
-
&quot;There is no point talking with idiots; the only good thing that can come out of it is through combating you idiots. No explaining will get through your thick skull, so the best thing is to insult you. Tyrants will always be tyrants. The only way to deal with them is to take them down.&quot;

It sounds like a lot of people are idiots to you, probably including the majority of people in power. If this is the case there is plenty of interest in talking with the idiots. You will most likely want to kill all of those idiots to &quot;deal with them&quot;, but this isn&#039;t something realistically possible. 
I don&#039;t believe you completely oppose rationality and humanism. Your reason for supporting this militant attitude is that you see &quot;Piracy&quot; or file sharing as a great new idea, and possibly a way to support socialism. To get anywhere you have to be understanding and put yourself in the, in my opinion, mislead capitalists point of view, as these people make out the majority of the leaders in society.</description>

you said: &quot;So sad people are gonna read this article and not all the comments… the article is right but the author totally ignore the fact that this amendement is going to be re run and will win this time.&quot;

I guess you completely missed this sentence in the article:

&quot;Not all is lost though, the amendment might pass in January or February 2009, when it will be proposed again.&quot;</description>
