I noticed many years ago that if I talked about any not generally accepted flaws about the world that I was considered "crazy" by many people. Zeitgeist (the movies) are about how the world is today and where it should (needs to) be.

I thought that people with bipolar disorder are generally more accepting of new ideas and the movie does cover some aspects of mental illness as well as the nature of the world, it's resources and the economy.

In the end I hope that by watching this movie that you feel a little less crazy.

The quotes and link below are from YouTube.

Quote:
would you say it is a mass delusion? like the only difference between crazy people and "normal" people is crazy people are more inventive and unique and believe their own thoughts while "normal" people just conform to the group/shared delusion?
Quote:
it makes me mad that my friend who has his own ideas about the world, not subscribed to that, gets labeled with 'mental illness' and put on drugs and stuff.... at least they listened when he said he wanted to quit it this year... that surprised me... but i hate the discrimination and looking down on people who are still on their own as far as what they see and believe... who are they harming? what elitism it is to call that mental illness i mean in a society so lost and deluded!

I think bipolar people are just people; some are open minded and others not so much. Plus, some of us live in fear of being labelled crazy while others revel in the title.... I'm not surprised you have found what you have.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
