How so?

Also, even if his opinions are predictable, this says nothing of their veractiy unless you can demonstrate some inaccuracy.

Really? Well I don't see it that way, watch the 2nd video and see that even people in afghanistan don't see it like that either.

Any good rapper should be well spoken. I mean their job is everything to do with putting words together.

Oh. Wait. Good rappers. Carry on then.

I like some Rap - Here I come by the Roots is sublime but their political opinions are always predictable.

Why shopuld I bother listening any more -he isn't a professor of Philosophy or a Political theorist -hes a rapper...an entertainer, his views are no more interesting than yours or mine.

Actually he is a humanitarian and political activist. Watch the documentary this guy isn't even singed with a label and he still gives out all a shit ton of money to help people in need. You don't need to be a professor of philosophy to be a philosopher that just sounds narrow minded. It's like you just said you can't ask why without studying the concept of why first.

Immortal Technique is in a genre of his own because of what and how he raps. I doubt you listen to much music unless it's popular.

Well I am not going to pay attention to you anymore, a guy who's first post I saw of his was about butt sex.

You don;'t even know what Philosophy is do you? You ave never read a single work of philosophy.

But please ignore me. You have nothing of interest to say.
