The New Normal is an Adolescent Society wallowing in entitlement. And those with the greatest sense of entitlement are its predators. That goes without saying; and these days – without much to hinder them either.
Morality is oppressive, and compassion is conditional upon the recipient: today’s doctrine is stripped down to the basics – privilege and hate – what’s in it for you; and who do you have it in for.
“It’s only a temporary condition – and it will all blow over” – I bet there were many Jews who counseled the same viewpoint.
We live in a world where an authoritative explanation is considered the same as a solution. We’re told that the recent “1,000-year floods” are due to climate change, and “what would normally be a small and consistent trickle of water over the course of the year, becomes a large bucket dumped all at once” – concluding that “we need to rethink everything about how we build where we build.”
Ya think? Don’t fix the climate change; fix the building codes? Maybe we should rethink everything again.
It’s not true that “the People are always the last to know” – sometimes the People never know.
“This is the way the world ends Not with a bang but a black hole”
Shamelessly self-promoting: science has become a platform for the destruction of humanity – a tool of the rich and powerful; selling a vaporware future to an anxious population.
In our unhappy world: Science keeps piling block on top of block; to make a bigger pile of blocks – with the singlemindedness of a Scrooge – never admitting the need for responsibility and accountability – and with no epiphany in sight.
Science has traded the adult wisdom of fallibility; for the adolescent; “Look what I can do!”
Now what can they do to fix it?
It’s tough to get your feet under you when the ground is constantly shifting. Wikipedia is as level a field as the Grand Canyon – with all the clarity of a bar on Saturday night.
With each article; consider the source: Did they bother to clean the lens they’re using — or even remove the lens cap?
These days; there is no such thing as a balanced argument. No time given to opposing views . . . and no mercy is given to those who hold them.
In our Standardized world: You no longer need to decide anything – the answers are placed right in front of you. Who would dare to demur? .They’re watching.
The biggest cause of death in fires is not panic – it’s lack of panic.
