...my pet theory is that if you envision the populace like this:
x
X
xx
XX
OO
OOO
OOOOOO
OOOOOO
OOOOOO
OOOOOO
OOOOOO
OOO
O
o
o
: with the top spot representing the truly wise, self-doubting
intellectuals who are honest with themselves and caring of others and their
rights(even if they are in contrast to their own)
and the bulk of "O's" representing the standard stupid public...with all
other letters representing the groups in between...the leaders usually come
from the top "O" lines because they are capabably of communicating to the
idiot masses....whereas the truly wise "x" will actually be seen as evil
heretics or even 'stupid' by the masses due to the huge gulf between them.
as a result the best leader we can expect to be accepted by the ignorant
voting masses will be essentially the lowest common denominator...an
incidental casualty of democracy i suppose =-(

...frightening post Blunderov! i seriously suspect that if our maniacal
bush wins again...it could signify the beginning of the end. a turning
point steep and downhill from which we might not return. it's almost
amazing to hear stories such as this one and compare them with so much
classic literature in which amazingly brazen acts of brainwashing,
strongarming, thought-control and censorship lead to disastrous consequences
and suffering. one imagines, "how could people just sit by and let this
happen?". i guess i have to credit bush's handlers with knowing that people
can be pushed WAY more than we imagine, and still they will refuse to voice
any protest.
...give someone something to lose, and you can take away all that they stand
to gain. (tm)
[Blunderov] Yes. It seems to me that this is symptomatic of a very real
fright pervading the US.
Back in the old RSA apartheid days (it's so nice to be able to say
that!)almost anything was OK just as long as it might be construed as
fighting communism, however loosely. Any dissent on just about any subject
at all was considered either 'communist' or indicative of communist
leanings. (Atheism, as I'm sure you can imagine, was not appreciated at
all.)
The USA certainly needs inspired leadership ASAP. From what I've read, Kerry
does not seem to be that man. Either.
