Tippaporn Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 (edited) Well, I guess our good overlords have, in their misbegotten and spurious 'wisdom', decided for us what we are able to view of this world and what we are not. This video does not contain scenes any different from other Vietnam era videos readily available on and capable of being linked to from this same platform. Only the most foolish of fools would allow others who are wholly inconsistent in applying their so-called 'values' to force them upon themselves. Rant over and folks will ultimately choose for themselves the extent to which they will surrender their Providence-given responsibilities for life which only they alone have the purview and power over, not another.

Tippaporn Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Perhaps I should revisit my earlier theme, a few years past now, of Vietnam protest songs. It is my view that as a race we are a highly technologically advanced species. Spiritually, though, we are pathetically underdeveloped. Look no further than the insanity of killing our own for transient causes. Not always due to our misguided and deluded method of 'solving differences.' But all too often for reprehensible and ignominious motives of personal profit and power perpetrated by the sickest members of our race. Those whom we proudly call 'leaders,' fawn over and elect again and again to, in pure irony, 'serve' us. Both perpetrators and their sheep, who not only allow it but oftentimes cheer it on, are spiritually bereft. Another rant over, LOL. Serious subject matter but then again not so serious given a proper perspective. In the end all is truly well. The studio version of the iconic Neil Young written and composed counterculture anthem Ohio Recorded by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young on May 21, '70. Not released on an album until the '74 compilation So Far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Tippaporn Posted February 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 21, 2021 Creedence Clearwater Revival with Fortunate Son off of their '69 Willy And The Poor Boys album. The song, released during the peak period of the U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, is not explicit in its criticism of that war in particular, rather, it "speaks more to the unfairness of class than war itself," according to its author, John Fogerty. "It's the old saying about rich men making war and poor men having to fight them." In 2015, while on the television show The Voice, he also said: The thoughts behind this song - it was a lot of anger. So it was the Vietnam War going on... Now I was drafted and they're making me fight, and no one has actually defined why. So this was all boiling inside of me and I sat down on the edge of my bed and out came "It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no senator's son!" You know, it took about 20 minutes to write the song. According to his 2015 memoir, Fogerty was thinking about David Eisenhower, the grandson of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, who married Julie Nixon, the daughter of then-President-elect Richard Nixon in 1968, when he wrote "Fortunate Son" (though Eisenhower was actually to spend three years in the military). "Fortunate Son" wasn't really inspired by any one event. Julie Nixon was dating David Eisenhower. You'd hear about the son of this senator or that congressman who was given a deferment from the military or a choice position in the military. They seemed privileged and whether they liked it or not, these people were symbolic in the sense that they weren't being touched by what their parents were doing. They weren't being affected like the rest of us. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tippaporn Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 (edited) Elston Gunn performing With God On Our Side live at Town Hall in '63. Interestingly each side always likes to claim that God is on "their" side. Though it appears contradictory perhaps it's true. "God" wants nothing more than for people to do and create as they please given the unlimited and unrestricted freedom they were imbued with. Thus he's rooting for the expressed freedom to choose by both sides. Not the best choice people may settle on, granted, but freedom prevails. Learning might result afterwards; lessons which never seem to migrate from one generation to the next. Wash, rinse and repeat.
