Logical thought is looked at with distrust and disdain because most Americans will lose any argument against a well eductated man or woman. They will look stupid. They don't want to look stupid even though Americans of today just watch TV.
TV does not educate, in fact it molds the attention span to be too short to possibly comprehend complex problems. That leads to the black and white - good and bad argument. Dubya understands the world like this > we are good, therefore our friends are good. Anyone that opposes us or our friends is therefore bad. Therefore logical exercises such as the wonderful article by Mr. Rockwell are superfluous.
They don't get and don't want to get it. They like the good and bad model just fine. - mikehosek, on 04/29/2008, -1/+8Sometimes its difficult to put yourself in someone else's shoes.
- JDenigma, on 04/29/2008, -1/+13What is wrong is government. What is wrong is politics. What is wrong is human beings and human nature are being barbarized and devolved by the nature of the State where people turn violent and turn against each other by using the State to control each other as everyone tries to fight for control of their share of the pie. Government and politics by its very nature is divisive and turns people against each other and pits them into "groups". People get brainwashed by the State and their education and they become victims to the Florence Nightingale effect and the Stockholm Syndrome. Just look at how angry people are on digg and how nasty we are towards each other. We become barbarized. Human nature is becoming devolved by the State. The human race needs to hear the siren call of a voluntary, peaceful world of cooperation with civil conduct without forcing things onto each other.
Everything is turning to ***** and our world is spiraling out of control. I'm getting to the point now where I'm really starting to think we just may be in those so-called "End Days" , so to speak. The human race in conjunction with the nature of the State is a deadly combination and it is a ticking timebomb in which it is inevitable that it is in our fate that we will eventually destroy ourselves as our world grows unless we completely obliterate our current paradigm of thinking. - XanderDee, on 04/29/2008, -0/+4Apathy.

- rficwizard, on 04/29/2008, -0/+7Beautiful. Unfortunately, unless it is made into a movie, no-one is going to go to the trouble to understand it. Of course, I don't think "White Man's Burden" (with its similar role-reversal concept) did all that well at the box office.
