moth 137 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 It's the age of the extravagant conservative, the age of informed ignorance, filled with wasteful exploiters and passive despoilers. An age of boring amazement. Clearly it is the age of the Oxymoron. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Can you make the argument please? Just saying it doesn't make it so. What exactly is "the human condition"? What is "emotional survival"? What is "the mammalian condition"?

Phi for All 5980 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 We're caught between how fast we can change things and how slow we need things to change. We need to behave differently but too many people want us to behave EXACTLY this way so they can make more money. Societies always have growing pains, and hopefully we can explore together a better direction than the one we've been taking. 14 hours ago, moth said: Now I feel bald.

Worthless statement imo, being aimed so broadly and so easily refuted. A more granular look might show an incompetent businessperson who lobbied a politician to stifle a scientific report. But this is another point for zapatos. Link to post Share on other sites
