Its not about RIGHT or WRONG, Good or Evil, Its about what works

[opihimoimoi]

Simple evolution at work here/

If it works, it works.

Success breeds success/

Throw Sanity, Logic, Reason, etc, out the door.

All systems require fuel.

Among other things, The Pub System feeds on sheep who feed $$ and Labor. This in turn feeds the brainwashing units. Which in turn feeds the power neccessary to win/steal/influence elections.

It works.

Could it be better?? well yeah.

Is this the best for us??

well, no, there are better systems/

So why are the better systems not working??

Because the Pub systems does a better job of selling their sh*t

and stifling our sh*t.

Could we do better?? well, hell yeah.

for one, we need to enroll in Better Systems 101

conceptualize, formulate, and implement.

Can we do this??

If we thinbk about this, its a no brainer.

First stage >>>> discussion <<<<

1. Sorry, my mistake, subject too vague/prevailing systems will

continue leading to the demise of our species.

Come, time for luau

2. You're making my brain hurt so early in the morning...

...how about an example for the brain weary?

4. They employ propaganda

which appeals to the lowest common demoninator--fear, patriotism, simplistic black\white soundbytes, bullying, lying, demonization,corporate control of gov and press, citizenship as consumer, repressive morality, patriarchial domination, etc. The Opposition party either jumps on board with a watered-down "me too" or with self loathing and lack of faith, abhors and tries to distance itself from what the Democratic party stands for--fearing it will be victimized by right-wing propaganda.

Phew.

In other words, the current Dem party leadership tries to co-opt the Republican thunder while at the same time fears being victimized by it- offering lackluster performance at any level. Boxed in.

7. Mahalo Webster, you have it right

Come, we find some Valencia Melons for you, so sweet.

8. I call it Goebbels v2.0

because it so very closely mirrors the tenets employed by Joseph Goebbels, including this one...

"Propaganda…must always be essentially simple and repetitious. In the long run, only he will achieve basic results in influencing public opinion who is able to reduce problems to the simplest terms and who has the courage to keep forever repeating them in this simplified form despite the objections of the intellectuals."
--Joseph Goebbels’ diary, 1/29/42

Damn if that does describe Faux "news" and the Right-Wing Sub-Media to a TEE!

9. No wonder Bush speaks so simply and plainly

He is attempting brainwashing. I always thought that was kinda hard for fellas who had a partial lobotomy.

Come, we go see ONE FLEW OVER THE WHITE HOUSE

3. The GOP has been successful in dumming down America while at

the same time stirring resentment toward a well informed Europe.

5. Strong Armed Robbery Of The Mind, is alive and kicking in ........

Centerville USA! The Mugged Minds are being powered by pure old Bushite from the Bushiters in the basement of the WH! The Methane gas in the air from all the Bushite is keeping the Minds Mugged! Mind Muggings of the Joe Sixpacks and Sally Soccer Moms, have gone up over 50% in the last two and a half years! The Bushite is starting to hit the fan more often the last few weeks, just maybe it will blow over!

Come, we dance to Rushfree Radio for a while!

6. RUSHFREE RADIO!!!!!!!!!!! I luv it. never sounded better

Hubert, You is Da Man

10. This makes no sense whatsoever...

other than a mindless attack on public systems and some notion that 'private' systems are BETTER systems...without any real evidence.

Right, wrong, good, evil? You can produce much higher rates of return and GDP growth in a dictatorship than a democracy? That's a better system...

what is it with freepers...can't they go to libertynet instead

[opihimoimoi]

12. ????

All I am saying is there must be better ways for Humanity to proceed
into the future.

doesn't neccessarily mean we have to abandon our core principles and go communist. No one mentioned that at all.

But the observation is this: Evil, it only works if we let it.

How to reduce Evil 101 is missing in the equation.
