Where was God in the holocaust?
Well, I'll tell you. ...but you're gonna have ta pay for it. You pay for it with your self view - the cherished perception that you (many people) have of yourself; that people have of themselves as beings.
...We'll return to that, later.
Meanwhile, this is what Darien Taylor, the girlfriend of Gordon G., in Wall Street, says that she wants:

"A Turner, a perfect canary diamond, a Lear jet, world peace, the best of everything."
Seany (Young) who plays Gekko's wife in the movie, is someone I have personally conversed with many times, over 'out there Cali matters,' although not very recently - a while ago now. I have a great deal of respect for Sean Young both as a person and an actor. But she doesn't have may quotable quotes from Wall Street. Daryl Hannah, however, has many.
Commoditization, is a part of Marxist theory. Commodification, is the way the industrial era economic system can function with production economies-of-scale, so that buyers buy on the basis of the price tag, not the underlying product differentiation. Even so, in 'commodification,' the demand is driven from the product's end usage.
In Commoditization, buyers buy to exchange - not to use.
Although the proposition was made that we should look at the question of investing to make serious money now - and perhaps using some access to very advanced thinking, let's just say - we have to also face a fact, namely, that we are living inside a Marxist economy.
It's not a pseudo-Marxist economy. It is a Marxist economy. Davos is the 'politburo' for social-political economics; in radical Marxism, society and economics are the same thing, essentially.
It's important to go over all of this, because if we run the initial question through 'AI Ronnie,' and Ronnie responds with something that doesn't make any sense to any of us, well, we'll have to think about how he might have reached such a conclusion, or such conclusions.

Other Sean - Sean Penn - made this movie in 2011 using the words of the Talking Heads song from Wall Street: 'This Must Be The Place.' It's about an aging rock star tracking down a Nazi who 'tormented' his father; that's the phrasing of the movie's official blurb.
We keep up this narrative about the 'they' - those super-powerful other people, who are behind everything. And that is because, they are indeed behind everything.
They're playing 'god' see.
Now I'm gonna show you God in action 'cept it'll take a while ta sink in.
'Power is energy into mechanical balance, and sustained action, is the absolute effect of power.'
Next article, we go through a case study in investing, as part I (back to the 'crawling' stage, at least).
ooh! ooh! I know the answer to this one!
ReplyDeleteso excited...
so the concentration camp: example of a thing-at-scale. another way of how a little knowledge can have really shitty uses.
it would also work as an example of the challenge faced by supposed et aliens, in terms of the reach-out.
we can give some cool ideas to *those* people, but there are these other people over *there* who have a lot of malice in mind, and it won't matter much that at this time they're being held back but some tyrant (well Stalin, in that case).
I don't understand why anyone would want a turner. aren't all those things slowly disintegrating away by all the bitumen he used in his paint mediums? what a bullshit line. typical hollywood schlock.
ReplyDeleteLOL re the Turner.
ReplyDeleteI think you're damn right re the two polar opposites that humans can be, can exhibit. The situation with the WWII thing is probably a picture of frankly, an unbalanced, a way-out-of-balance dynamic: the evil was massive, widespread, and out on the extreme edge; where was the 'good?' You had an opposing army/military. And some individual heroic stories. Where was the mass, widespread sanctified 'goodness' in Man? I don't buy that people 'opposed' the bad and that's what means 'the good.' Nu-huh. The guys on the other side didn't want to lose their own power - and let's not forget they pushed for Versailles in the first place, and then sent in gangsters to push the actual real aristocrats out of places like Poland and the border places of Germany - in order to take or extract 'war reparations.'
Where is the self-driven 'Goodness' version of 'extreme' thinking the same way Nazism is extreme power-assertion? A bitter 'truth' that many will not face - Nazism is just the same drive to power and control taken to an extreme, as opposed to any other secular, self-serving materialistic (doesn't matter how it's dressed up) 'on the other side.' It's the same side, a continuum of political cultures; and people are not going to like that view of it.
There can be completely altruistic secularism, sure. But where is even that?
Where? ...Where?
The philosophical 'thought experiment' problem, always struggles with the use of force and violence to assert on the part of 'good' AGAINST something truly 'bad.'
'Evil' apparently, does not ever fear being taken to its own gas chamber...
And we shall soon see about that.
I think - TEN TIMES worse than the gas chambers. And that's not something anyone factors into the equation. And that's partly because they cannot envisage what that might even be.
Navajo Indians can, though. They talk about the 'Anasazi' who all died out - but they rarely say HOW they died out.
Reading up quickly on the treaty of versailles... well the concept of "shared agency" could be used to create a "virtual party" who according to the treaty would accept blame for both sides. The relationship between that actual parties and the virtual party could be an ongoing evolving thing.
DeleteLOL. Okay. And someone just whispered in my ear: "Never Blame, never complain -, never explain."
ReplyDeleteOh gosh yes. The "actual parties" would likely never move on. Okay never mind.
DeleteI get such a strange shiver every time you imply your "friends" are indirectly involved here, even though I don't "actually" believe it, and I'm trying to find that place in myself that is the origin of that feeling.
