Arlo, Here is where a philosopher would take the time and employ Socratic method to illumenate the idea that there is bad and good in everything in an effort to come to a better understanding of the situation that needs to be addressed.
But sadly the emotional attachment to certain ideas is stronger than the will to come to a reasonable solution on the matter and clowns like us will always be the enemy of these points of view. -Ron ----- Original Message ---- From: Arlo Bensinger <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wed, December 2, 2009 9:01:31 AM Subject: Re: [MD] SOM's defect comes home to roost [Ron to Mark] You seem to prefer the days of dumping raw sewage in the streets and the widespread plague of diseases that accompany it. [Arlo] Yeah, I wonder how many curse those fucking commie environmentalists in Chicago for "forcing" businesses to clean up a river they polluted so heavily it caught on fire. Those tyrannists who immorally coerced those noble capitalists to not dump tons of remains, chemicals, paint, decaying animals, etc. into a river that "the people" had this absurd notion somehow "belonged to them all". Why every time I hear about how those fucking whacko environmentalists destroyed Chicago with their evil schemes and plans to enslave the world (why I hear their motto was "Clean the river today, Enslave the world tomorrow!") it makes me want to cry. And now those poor capitalists in Chicago, living under communist laws that inhibit their freedom to dump their garbage into the river... [Ron] Arlo and Iacknowledged this sad aspect too. [Arlo] Nah, I told you, Ron, there is no place for people like us in this "war". So choose you side, either come out screaming about how "parasitic man is causing the sky to fall", or beat the drums of "evil freedom-hatin' one worlders". Mark's reply proved this, that's all they want to hear. I mean, when someone says "reasonable environmentalism is an oxymoron", its time to check your brain at the door, choose an ideology and come out screaming slogans.
