Month: April 2016

Have you ever been on a customer service call with some company, whom have arguably already utterly failed by providing you with crap products which aren’t worth half what they’re priced at (even if they actually worked) … and as you explain the situation to someone who basically doesn’t care, it dawns on you they’re not going to do even a bare minimum level of reparation for the misdeeds on their part … THEN as you try to do their job for them, to provide a win-win outcome, you hear this word: “policy” … and basically, you might as well just hang up the call.

I met a guy a while back now, from Northern NSW, but originally from the USA … a bit of a hippy, and was convinced he could heal me from my stress with an American Indian drum … which possibility I’m not entirely discounting … but here’s the thing: he explained to me during our extensive conversation that he used to work for a very large number of corporations, who basically paid him to figure out how people and governments would attempt to protect something they had a vested interest in destroying, and then they’d use the information he provided them, to help devise a strategy to destroy it for as much profit as possible.

A dilemma ran through my head as I was contemplating another article a few days ago:

• Given the lack of significant support for what I’m doing;
• Given the potential availability of support;
• Given also the potential gamut of consequences for the planet, everyone and everything on it;
• Can I therefore assume those with the resources to do so, refuse to support what they see as a threat?
• Can I therefore assume they’ll only support what they can corrupt and control?
• Should I therefore cease risking placing anymore information in their hands ..?
• … and thus just allow the workd to fail?

Perhaps it is only after the failure of everything, that if somehow we survive, then people might really listen.

I understand that a lot of people either care (or claim to care) about the state of the world and where we’re headed … and many efforts are going in to “finding the solution” … but the thing you all have to understand is this:

• IF you include the problem as part of your “solution”;
• THEN – at some critical threshold – your solution will break.

Another contentious issue … inspired by the same events of this morning (which I won’t go into) … but I hope this post will help you understand why I am so passionate and aggressive over these issues. Continue reading “Animal Exploitation and Domestication”

Ok, this one is likely to be contentious, so let’s just start with the terms of discussion:

1. Political Correctness IS A EUPHEMISM for censorship;
2. I am the enemy of bigotry and fascism ( it’s personal );
3. I am the enemy of censorship and conformity ( predictably );
4. I am the staunch ally of of reason and critical thinking;

A question that just occurred to me, which I can’t remember being asked by anyone, but which is nonetheless a significant and important question … is how any proposed economic framework would recover from absolute collapse of the status quo (property/trade/currency based economics and all the rest). Continue reading “Recovering from system collapse: what if we can’t transition in time?”

In the general context of the world of formal academia, the answer is a definitive yes … BUT … it’s not actually for the reasons so many people seem to think, and so even within the context of that academic world, the greater and more correct answer is actually no. Unfortunately, not even a lot of academics understand this, so allow me to explain. Continue reading “Is a citation necessary for an argument to be valid sound and correct?”

Town planning, including the building of: agricultural, industrial, residential, transport and other infrastructure; can be more effectively achieved with far greater ecological, technological and social gains, by reconfiguring its protocols as functions of the principles of Ecological Systems Modelling & Thermodynamics.

To discuss this further, let’s revisit one recently published issue, that of population. Continue reading “Town planning as an ecological function”
