    1) Education; there is a lot of things that people have to be taught, and in some cases re-taught. Schools currently serve as tools of governments to indoctrinate the younger generations and teach them how to get jobs. Naturally, this means that kids are taught only the things that won't harm the government or potentially upset the current system in any way or make the students too individual, too entitled to their own freedom as members of the human species. So, kids should generally be taught to think outside the box, not just that "capitalism is good, [insert name of any other system here] is bad". Or they should be encouraged to learn more about politics outside of school, through more trustworthy sources - but always numerous ones, so they do not develop a holy book like relationship to, for example, a website or a book that may not even be fully reliable.

    2) Organization; people have to start organizing themselves, resisting oppression from the ruling class, fighting for freedom (not necessarily through violence), start strikes & protests, as the upper class is highly unlikely to give up all of its fortune & power to the people just like that. After all, it's what makes them "above" us. Obviously, the working class have the most work to do here - since almost all of us belong that category. How many of you own the means of production? I'm guessing no one. That makes us all part of the working class (well, those of us who are not old enough to work yet are students) - in strictly economical terms; I would rather not divide society anymore than it already is divided by using "social status" terms, because it's ridiculous.

    Obviously, I barely went into any detail regarding this, but that's because things are done differently depending on the specific type of system that you want to put in place of the previous one. What I was referring to in my two points was something striving for a more left-wing (in European terms, as I've heard those words have a different meaning in America) and libertarian, with a much more equal distribution of wealth. I'm sure others, with a more authoritarian approach, would propose something completely different.

    Being Polish, I've heard that story numerous times (and it's bloody awesome), though never in this way. :lol: I guess some elements of it are exaggerated here, but it is actually a true story. :p

    Ahahaha my friend recommended them to me the other day, even though they're not what I usually listen to at all. They're rather comical and some songs you can really relax to and stroke your beard.

    Real []
    Imaginary [/]

    I wish I had a nice beard.

    Then grow one. :p I currently have one (though not as big as the one in the vid, obviously), but I think it's pissing off my friends. It's not my fault Polish people start and stop growing earlier. :lol:

    ^ Chances are you ran across someone who advised you to shave more often because it would make your facial hair grow faster and thicker; don't believe any of it, it's a myth. Just be patient and eventually the beard will come naturally.

    ^ I've been told it's a myth before but I still shave to look clean and tidy until I can grow a real masterpiece.

    Are you an Arab? I'm asking because most of my Arabic friends got facial hair before anyone else, not to mention arm hair and stuff. Could be something related to our ethnicity. For example, most of my white British friends have been struggling to grow any facial hair for a while now. I've been able to get a full goatee, mustache and "jaw warmer" hair (as I like to call it :lol: ) since I turned 14 (I'm 16 and it's a real pain in the ass now). However, most of my friends who are Arabic actually beat me to this by a year or so. After all, I'm quite different since I was born and raised in Central/Eastern Europe and Arabs are even more different from people in the UK.

    It's funny how when I was 10 it seemed so important to me to get a beard, but now that I have one, I really don't see it as anything special - whilst most of my friends still do. :derp:
