Madonna: Ghandi in a Cone Bra? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Post by Daanyeer »

............."Adopting a poor African child and hauling him off to Shangri-La doesn’t make Madonna anything like Ghandi. If she sold her stuff and went to Africa to move in with the kid, then she’d be a little closer to the mark — or Mahatma in this case. When that happens, I’ll actually believe that Madonna strives to be like Ghandi."

Madonna, who is so adept at marketing herself that her life is basically a never-ending real-time infomercial, has said that she “wants to be like Ghandi.” John Lennon and Martin Luther King Jr. come in a close second.

Simply looking at some quotes from Madonna and Ghandi and heck, it’s easy to tell that Madonna is indeed striving to be like her hero.

Ghandi: “Whenever you have truth it must be given with love, or the message and the messenger will be rejected.”

Madonna: “Sometimes you have to be a bitch to get things done.”

Ghandi: “Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.”

Madonna: “Everybody loves you when they are about to cum.”

Ghandi: “I believe in equality for everyone, except reporters and photographers.”

Madonna: “I won’t be happy until I’m as famous as God.”

I don’t know about you, but I think Madonna is nearly at official Ghandi status.

Actually, Ghandi may have viewed Madonna as a purveyor of the very ”western decadence” he spoke out against. Ghandi once said, “What do I think of western civilization? I think it would be a good idea.” Madonna would have to get rid of a whole lot of goodies to be like Ghandi.

We all know that Madonna’s simply a PR machine, and a good one at that, and she knows what it would take to actually be like Ghandi so this will never go past lip service as it would involve giving up being Madonna.

I hate to admit this, but I have much more in common with Madonna than with Ghandi. I’m a capitalist, and as such I happen to appreciate much of what “western decadence” has to offer — and obviously so does Madonna. “Western decadence” is a decadence that has cured countless diseases and created wealth that aids the rest of the planet. Under this decadent umbrella famine has all but been eliminated, and yes, this decadence has made it possible for people like Madonna to be famous to the point of delusional visions of being just like the very man who would have thought she was an exhibitionistic capitalist skank.

Adopting a poor African child and hauling him off to Shangri-La doesn’t make Madonna anything like Ghandi. If she sold her stuff and went to Africa to move in with the kid, then she’d be a little closer to the mark — or Mahatma in this case. When that happens, I’ll actually believe that Madonna strives to be like Ghandi.

Ghandi might have seen in Madonna a performer overdosing on “western decadence” who spent the majority of her early career in the United States profiting as the Mecca for aspiring sluts and two-bit perverts everywhere, where she taught children through words and actions that nothing is sacred and off limits in the name of “art,” anonymous sex is great, and cone bras on gay men are wonderful accessories.

Then, after having her own kids, she moved to England to develop a fake British accent and escape what she viewed as an increasingly immoral nation. Ghandi may have seen a woman who would take no part in raising her children in a country whose youth spent their formative years under the lewd tutelage of their own mother, and maybe even have giggled at the irony.

I thought that as Madonna aged, she might cool it a little bit on the BS. This isn’t happening. If anything, the attention cravings will only get worse as adult-onset “‘What Ever Happened to Baby Jane’ syndrome” kicks in full force in years to come, and no global peace icon, alive or dead, will be safe from laughable comparison.
