"strength through kraft"

wat


Kraft is the german (also swedish) word for "Force". So it sounds kvlt to them I guess but even in english "Strength through force" sounds weird. xD

i"d say a better translation for Kraft is strength
so it actually means strength through strength

Eh, it depends really. As Kraft is for example the physical quanity that is measured in newtons and it's simbol is F. In english that quantity is called Force.
That's the main reason to why I thought it was a better way to translate it.

force has multiple meanings that have nothing to do with Kraft, while strength only has the meaning of Kraft in everyday use, while not covering the force in physics
i understand your argument, but tend towards the other side

like i said, you 'pointing out' their lyrics are 'stupid' is indicative of your awareness

I appreciate how much you're trying to put words in my mouth, but at no point did I ever say anything about the lyrical content being stupid.

given the content of the songs lyrics, your statement exposes you as ignorant of world events---which is why youre here all the time

Comments like this expose the fact you're clearly offended by his comment and are trying to commit ad hominem as a way of getting back at him.


not offended, just dont like idiots
and its not an ad hominem, as if he actually knew what was going on in the world, he wouldnt be here wasting his time on inanities

Nope, you made a baseless accusation by suggesting "he is here all the time" which is little more than a thinly veiled personal attack designed to discredit him on a personal level. That counts as ad hominem in my book as you don't know a single thing about him.

Indeed, I used both of those words. But I didn't say "stupid". That was where you tried to put words in my mouth.

Also, in case you haven't caught on to the blatant sarcasm in this thread, Belphegor lyric videos do absolutely nothing in terms of highlighting important issues going on in the world right now. The fact that you think I don't know about world events because I questioned the purpose of this video makes me think you're probably not the most skilled person when it comes to arguing. But since you're apparently offended due to my opinion being different than yours, you try to make the issue about my knowledge of the world.

The more you comment here the more desperate you make yourself look. I understand you really want people to think Belphegor lyric videos are a prime example of the most pressing issues currently going on in the world, but that simply isn't the case.

If you'd like to discuss the lyrical content of this video and enlighten us as to how it so wonderfully points out what's going on in the world please feel free. In fact I encourage you to describe just how these lyrics can inform me better than any of the news sites I subscribe to just what exactly I fail to be aware of in regards to world events. I have no interest in this "rubber and glue" match you're attempting to turn this into, but I am legitimately curious as to how Belphegor have managed to capture all the important events in the world in a 4-minute lyric video about Nuklear Sathan and seething sandstorms.

I'm sure you'll find a way to argue about something completely irrelevant to anything I've said, but I'll still hold out hope that you can formulate a decent argument and contribute to the discussion you seem to want to be so much a part of.

nuclear warfare: the us has been threatening russia with b-2 spirit bombers and drills in eastern europe, also the us is the only power to have used nuclear weapons---on civilian populations, with no military objective (not that it would excuse it)

religion: is commonly used to create divides with which to perpetuate conflict

chemical warfare: false flags started by western powers to intervene in a sovereign country, syria, and the threat of western backed jihadists in southwest asia

You really have a hard time arguing without trying to insult people, don't you? In all honesty I'm completely fine with you thinking I'm stupid for not believing a Belphegor lyric video is a legitimate news source.

As for the above mentioned links, while it's appreciated that you actually took time to find sources for your arguments (even though it was just a YouTube video and a bunch of articles from the same site), at no point did you relate the events to the lyrics in this video. I am well aware of these issues, regardless of whether you believe me or not, as I try to stay on top of current affairs as much as possible. I also visit more than one site for my information because I try to get said information with different perspectives.

Unfortunately your point was that this lyric video highlights those issues, yet at no point does the band really state anything aside from vague references to nuclear warfare. I get that you can easily associate the lyrics with a variety of nuclear-based events throughout human history and it would make sense that Belphegor are likely more focused on current affairs rather than bringing up the past, but I guess I was hoping you'd have more thorough explanations for those of us "too stupid" to understand the metaphors. The song is indeed about the brutality of humanity. I figured that part out all by myself, so you're right about it being obvious. I noticed as well that the band members provided some social commentary in the form of a "fuck you all!" I believe this is the band's way of saying that they are not in fact okay with what is going on. But I could be wrong - you know how stupid I am when it comes to these things. I'd appreciate it even more if you were to enlighten me on whether or not my assumption is correct regarding the social commentary.

If you're really so sure your opinion has weight to it, you wouldn't need to resort simply to calling everyone else stupid and school playground-caliber insults. A pile of out-of-context news articles doesn't really prove a whole lot.

Although, I don't know Belphegor very well, maybe way back they released a scholarly and well-researched song called Everyone Else Is Stupid and you took the lyrics to heart.

which brings us back to my original point; you do not see the relevence because, besides your claims, you dont have the educational context, which i provided, and is inferred in the video because there has been only one nation to have used nuclear weapons offensively historically, and they are the same nation threatening to use them today

I don't get the latter comment. This whole generic "your stupid" commentary doesn't carry your argument in any way. Don't you realise what you say is on display for everyone to see? All people are going to witness is you losing your cool with everyone and insulting people which just paints you as a reactionary guy who can't argue with reason and as someone who just resorts to personal attacks as a last resort?

You need a brush on what an "ad hominem" is.

Actually calling your finishing statement an ad hominem would be an insult to the idea of an ad homimen fallacy. It was just plain pathetic. A desperate, hateful person who got personally insulted over the internet and wanted to lash out. My God; why are there so many of you sorts.
