Default banksy and the apple tree

banksy and the apple tree 12.12.15



power beyond power

the resemblance does mirror

but banksy this time wont flower

the solution will not be painted this era.

i see the message that's hidden

its riddled with description

our boarders must have nothing forbidden

7000 from the camp jungle need uk contamination.

think about technology

this world will computerize

apple will disappear with this biology

how can anyone criticize.

we can have a new phenomenon

everything will start again to boom

its just like xfactor and stacey solomon

all are welcome we have room.

every country at war

we must welcome and shelter

just like computer business did soar

our economy wont drop like a helter skelter.

can you see my sarcasm

sorry banksy i strongly disagree

putting my poem in Calais is my exorcism

because your migrant plan is no apple tree.

People either love or hate Banksy. Personally I love art that reflects what is happening in the world. He is absolutely brilliant.

well I love banksy and I love all his art - but I love the fact its up to us to interpret it how we want and this is what I have done. and I am sorry banksy but on this one I don't think the correct solution is as simple as the art suggest. it is a much deeper problem and far more complexes then allow or do not allow ?


( my proposal for banksy is still a long way off. )

The message in the mural is clear: People who want to ban refugees from entering their country could be depriving the world of the next Steve Jobs, who was himself the son of a Syrian immigrant.

I find it ironic that countries like America and Australia hold so much fear and paranoia regarding immigration when both these countries were built by immigrants.

You talk so much sense Hog - as usual.

I think the article is confused and 'Banksy' is confused.

For me, the most ironic part of the linked article is:

"Steve Job's (left) father Abdul Fattah Jandali, (right) 84 lives in Nevada and is the son of a wealthy millionaire who owned 'several entire villages' in Syria"

I do not believe that any of the diverse immigrants to either country were rampaging throughout the world bombing, slaughtering, beheading and abducting, on their way to conquering every country on the planet, in order to install one Great Caliphate', at the time though Red.

no it's not. it's insanely predictable and mainstream. wow, criticizing disneyland for commercialism is sooooo insightful... how do you figure? people have been calling disneyland too commercial for 50 years! how is it insightful in any conceivable way?

Disney even made a Disney movie about people criticizing Disney for being too commercial, called "saving Mr. Banks"... when disney is even criticizing themselves for being disney, then how the **** is BNKSY ORIGINAL for doing it???

it's boring and predictable and obvious just like the people he is criticizing. and he has never created anything original, it's all just boring old stereotypes.

show us one piece of art he's done that was truly a new and interesting idea? something truly original.

All European countries and South American Countries are just as built by immigrants too, so why are you singling out America and Australia?

The people of the UK didn't just POP out of the GROUND!

Actually they did

http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/American_Indian_Genocide

Christopher Columbus came to the New World for King (well, Queen), honor and God. His ships brought many priests to accomplish God's work. Both his own writings and those of Bartolomé de las Casas mention the thousands of murders done in the name of God, against a people who chose not to convert. A conservative estimate by anthropologist Jack Wetheford suggests that in less than 10 years, the population of the island of Hispaniola plunged from 500,000 to less than 100,000.

The "Indian Removal Act" of 1830 attempted to move roughly 50,000 Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw and others from their home to Indian Territory (present day Oklahoma). The U.S. government did not provide any means of transportation, forcing them to walk the 2,200 miles. One can reasonably argue that the U.S. government did fully expect many of them to die on the way — especially children and the elderly. The U.S. government recorded 4,000 deaths on just one of many re-location marches among the Cherokee alone; estimates of the total death toll range from as low as 5,000 to as high as 25,000
