All of human endeavor is equally valid. We make up our rules ourselves, and when enough of us decide the rules need to change, there is no higher authority, no force on Earth that gets to decide whose rules are the “real” ones. Laws, contracts, and constitutions are just words on paper that are only worth anything if enough people decide they are. No one is infallible. No institution is eternal.
Nothing is true. Everything is permitted.
Ironically, it’s execs of large companies that are probably most adept, out of any of us, at intuitively realizing exactly this. I’m not saying that to be pithy, I believe it’s literally true.
The folks who get to those positions understand reality to be fully malleable, often from a young age I’d bet, and they spend their lives very deliberately warping it to their own ends. It’s almost the defining trait of an executive at a megacorp.
We know why the state monopolizes violence. We know why this CEO assassination had literally all sides of the political spectrum torqued. We know what we have to do.
Keep on torquing!
TORQUE TORQUE TORQUE!
Jeremy Clarkson just came in his pants and he has no idea why.
Torque du Soleil?
Nah, he’s just really into cars with a lot of torque.
“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.”
- -John F Kennedy at the White House 1962 March 13
https://en.m.wikiquote.org/wiki/John_F._KennedyAlso from him :
a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its peopleThe great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie — deliberate, contrived and dishonest — but the myth — persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic. Too often we hold fast to the cliches of our forebears. We subject all facts to a prefabricated set of interpretations. We enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.
Mankind must put an end to war or war will put an end to mankind

how many have to die from lack of care before we just admit universal health care would save many lives, both in patients and ceos?

stop posting caitlyn johnstone’s broken clock moments, surely someone else on the internet has this opinion for you to screenshot
I’m ootl - who is she
physical embodyment of .ml, quick google for quotes gives you the general summary of her opinions (she has these opinions, and also the same opinions as other people who say this sort of thing on other issues)
“Trump probably WILL end the Ukraine war eventually; if he doesn’t the next president will. Ukraine has already lost and the US needs its resources to prepare for war with China over Taiwan, so it’s only a matter of time before the proxy war is brought to a conclusion. The empire was always going to leave Ukraine a smoldering wreck after a senseless, stupid, insanely dangerous war that could easily have been avoided with a few low-cost concessions and a little diplomacy.”
"Polls say that both Ukrainians and Americans want this US proxy war to end, but instead of ending it Washington is pressuring Kyiv to throw teenagers into the threshing machine of an unwinnable conflict.
And we were told this war was all about protecting democracy."
basically useful idiot who presents as serious smartywriter
edit: if you prefer more succinct comedy, there’s also this: https://www.reddit.com/r/tankiejerk/comments/v7pk9u/what_do_we_do_now_caitlin/
edit2: based on post history, op is caitlynposting deliberately due to agreement with her useful idiot opinions and is trying to subtly push the useful idiot opinions on unsuspecting people by using her broken clock moments to sanitize her
Seems posts like this trigger your cognitive dissonance.
elaborate

The useful idiot in this equation would be you and people parroting the bullshit that they hear. And after hearing conflicting information, you’re. cognitive dissonance kicks in where it causes unease and discomfort because it does not correlate with what you’ve been taught to think.
you didn’t elaborate, you just said “cognitive dissonance” and then had chatgpt expand it into more words without adding additional information
