The problem with people like Yoko Ono is, they value peace more than they value freedom. And people and nations who go down that path end up with neither peace nor freedom.
Anyone who knows the whole debauched scene of Yoko Ono and her corrupt, vengeful and decadent life, knows exactly what a Yoko Ono wants - she doesnt want people to follow her ideas, she wants people to follow her. And if people did, they would end up under a Khmer Rouge dictatorship with plastic bags being tied over the heads of their children.
Yoko Ono is not a Buddha, Siddhartha, neither a Jesus, she is not a saint or a God, and such is not a religion that is grounded in values - rather those that are her peons are members of a cult, a cult that believes in deceptive, and in every case insincere, magic. These are the true believers in the crowd that every year on a given date commemorate John Lennons death by gathering together, burning candles, singing Imagine, and believing that if you loaf around thinking peace that peace will come. The same crowd also believes that by doing such work, such magic, they also believe that such loafing around is so important that others in government and society who do the real work should thereby support and feed them for free with their own hard-earned labor to support such peaceful loitering.
Yoko Onos life was one of many addictions, and not just addictions to drugs, but addictions to conspiracy theories, addictions of hatred, addictions to vice, black magic, mental addictions and mental problems. Neither is Yoko Ono a contemporary Gandhi of sorts or anything of the kind - she has never had peace, neither in her life, neither among those who followed her, and certainly neither in her head which is screwed up and cocked backwards as a loon. Yoko Ono announced to the Olympic audience, that if a billion people practiced peace, that we would have peace.
I have news for Yoko Ono, the Olympic Committee who put us through this orchestrated new age prop, and to the peons who follow Yoko Ono - there are already a billion people who practice peace everyday. Everyday, they simply live with their families, love their family, go and do peaceful work to earn and educate and feed their family. They do not kill others, nor steal from them, they are helpful to their neighbors, they have peace in their minds, and bring peace to the community because they believe in peace. For example, I am one of them, and there are countless of the same who read this forum. These are just regular people, not Yoko Onos - there are more than a billion such regular people who practice peace. More than a billion. Some might be different religions, or no religions at all. Some might be Christians - I am not one, but I can tell Yoko Ono a big surprise that there are over a billion Christians who practice peace each and every single day. But regular folks like that, they also know things. They know that the term peace isnt the same as the absence of war. Countless Fulong Gong who suffer in the prisons of Communist China, they may try to keep peace in their heart, but I would imagine that the reality is they have no peace. It doesnt matter that the Chinese government isnt actively attacking a particular country at the moment - it doesnt matter that China isnt at war this day and time, this moment - there isnt peace in China. There isnt peace in a lot of places. For the Catholics suffering torture in the prisons of Fidels Communist Cuba, there isnt peace - I wouldnt call it that.
So I guess the message of the Olympic Committee is that, the modern Olympics is all about peace, peace among nations. I thought the modern Olympics was about competition in sports, in athletics, and nations competing among each other in sporting activity. They all sang John Lennons Imagine after Yoko Ono finished her absurd statement. Why Yoko Ono? For that matter, since athletics is the heart of the Olympics, why not have Rush Limbaugh get up and say Hey! Im a football fan. And I like sports! Let the sporting spirit of the Olympics thrive! - but to have Rush up there would be just as absurd as having Yoko Ono. Because, everyone knows, it then becomes political.
The Olympics. I would rather be talking about the competitions - but that is exactly the point. When you put a Yoko Ono up there, you find a folks stop talking about it.
In fact, I may not even watch it now. One of the lines of John Lennons Imagine is, imagine theres no countries. Gosh, if I imagined that, would there even be an Olympics?
Who pays attention to her?
She's as relevant politically as Emanuel Lewis is in the acting world.
From Yoko I'd like both peace and quiet.
Who?
The olympics are going on now? Who cares?
I pay as much attention to her as I do the Olympics.
The wrong person got shot 25 years ago on that street in New York. At least John had SOME talent.
That ain't right.
It does matter. And it corrupts the Olympics. And for anyone who has heard Imagine, it clearly states "and no religion too." They are tryng to use the Olympics for a political purpose; I only hope they are not being successful.
That is one of the most disturbing pictures I've ever seen. I ask you to please never post anything like that again.
Nail ... head.
Not only that,but I recently read a portion of an interview he did not long before his death in which he expressed some thoughts that suggested that he may have been "coming around" in a political/philosophical sense.
"In fact, I may not even watch it now. One of the lines of John Lennons Imagine is, imagine theres no countries. Gosh, if I imagined that, would there even be an Olympics?"
you know there was a WKRP in Cincinati where an AFA-like group wanted certain songs off the air and Imagine was the final straw.
The show made the point, correctly, I think, that the song is just asking people to think, to imagine and that is not a bad thing.
Yoko will surely win gold in the "Break up an overrated band" competition.
I've never been a Yoko Ono fan, so I'm not familiar w/ her "corrupt, vengeful, & decadent" life....could someone please explain?
Im watching Wesley in "Blade". I didnt even know the Olympics were on. I rate the IOC about the same as the UN. Ergo, the competition means nothing to me. Less, now that Yoko was allowed to spew at a world wide audience..
I have to say I had the same thoguht.
That's "thought."
