Clip: Love Police Compilation
Pretty sure these guys are from the crew of Zeitgeist. Not sure though. But nonetheless this is hilarious.
These two dudes go into the public streets of somewhere in UK (?) with megaphones and spread the word of the free human. They perfectly reflect back at people the attitudes of the elite, in humorous fashion. I couldn't stop laughing!
So much truth is getting spurted here it'd make your head spin if it wasn't delivered such a casual, simple and funny fashion . Just watch. It's awesome.

Revolution in Egypt
Some intense times are happening in Egypt at the moment.
Here's some footage of some people who have had enough of having their freedom breached. Loco stuff. It's amazing what happens when a massive population becomes fed up with a select "elite" few dictating a poor way of living for their own benefit; when a massive population of people decide to stand up for their rights and freedom. They unite and stand up and say, "No. Enough."
It's just a shame that things are in such bad shape that the only remaining choice is by force and violence. I simple can't imagine what it must be like to go through. Truly intense stuff.

Clip: Rap News 6 - Wikileaks' Cablegate: the truth is out there
New episode already! These guys are becoming prolific.
There's layers upon layers upon layers of shaky political issues on a global scale going on in the world right now that it makes your head spin. But rap news is amazingly refreshing. I love the 'bigger picture' focus of these. I watched this a few times just to digest all of the content. This is some seriously inspired work. Very exciting project.
Already looking forward to the next one!

Clip - Rap News 5: Wikileaks & the War on Free Speech
This is the newest episode of Rap News, for those who haven't seen it already.
Rap News is really developing into something significant, and here they provide what is probably their most important episode yet.

Petition: Save Australian Internet
Hey,
It has recently come to my attention that Senator Conroy has plans to install an Internet censorship scheme while everybody is focused on Christmas.
The internet is the final medium of media in which humanity has freedom of speech. This is a threat to government's control. Australia is getting prepared to commence censorship - which means our internet will become controlled - so we must voice our disapproval!
So today i found a site recommended by a friend on facebook(thank you, freedom of speech!), that was holding a petition against it (they gathered 120,000 signatures), and the site had the capabilities to forward our emails to the senator.
So i wrote one.
If you would like to do the same, then visit this site:
If you would like an example of what to write, here's the email that i sent. Feel free to discuss it. But remember to use your own words when you send an email of your own. And feel free to bring up completely different points in your own email. The idea is to flood them with so many emails that we can't be ignored.
Dear Senator,
It has come to my attention recently of the plans to censor Australian internet. I would like to voice my disapproval of the notion.
The internet is the final medium of media of which our nation has freedom of speech. TV Media is run by a select few in control, and general population is not involved in the controlling process of it. Commercial Radio is also this way. The internet is the final media of which everybody is equal, and any human can freely express themselves. Although some things on the internet can truly be labeled negatively, the censorship plans will choke our freedom of speech, and our freedom in general.
The censorship plans are redundant, since the negative internet content is normally shared via email or file-sharing networks - not through web traffic. AND - Any negative stuff that IS present in web-traffic, can be thwarted by censorship software that can be purchased by any parent around the globe. Not only would Government-controlled internet censorship be inefficient and unnecessary, it would also be a violation to human rights.
Freedom of speech is necessary for humanity for the evolution of our collective consciousness. I hope you are intelligent enough to understand this. To be without honest expression and without the ability to connect with others, we are divided, unhappy and generally disconnected. This means humans are not trading thoughts, ideas, beliefs, perspectives, etc etc, as they should be able to. To censor the internet, would be to work against humanity's evolution. This means internet censorship comes across as a malevolent plan. Is the government working in favour or against the Australian public?
GetUp! has already gathered over 120,000 petition signatures in opposition to mandatory internet censorship scheme. This is proof that it is not in the best interests of the people.
What i ask is that you reconsider your position on the internet censorship scheme, and instead work towards schemes that the Australian public are actually in favour for.
Thank you for your time,
Nic.

Article: Stealth Treaty Seeks Strict Controls Over Internet
As seems to be a recurring theme in recent times, our freedom is under threat. This time in the cyber world.
The internet is probably the one system that can't be controlled like the governments would want. They find too many thorns in their plans because of the pesky internet. It is an excellent medium for freedom of speech, information spreading, creative sharing, connection to others, accelerated learning, and much much more.
So of course, that's what's being attacked. Except that it's all behind the scenes, where it CAN be controlled.
A very eye opening article ahead... filled with petitions and such...
A sweeping international treaty to regulate how knowledge and creativity may flow on the Internet is now being negotiated. Haven’t heard of it? Funny thing, that’s exactly what the backers of the treaty want. The film, music, publishing and information industries don’t want a public debate about the issues or an open debate in Congress. So they have been working hand-in-glove with the U.S. Trade Representative to move U.S. policymaking offshore and throw a dark cloak of secrecy around everything. The next stop: draconian penalties for anyone who is accused of violating copyright law.
