RE: Defining Utopia: Introduction
The ending part is kind of in and of its self a false truth, the saying history will always repeat itself is in part due to mankinds nature and selfish desire that if we want something we will find a way to get it.
I.E. Hitler felt his race was superior, was an excellent speaker and capitalized on the negative feelings surrounding the end of WW1. He committed genocide to promote his race.
Genghis Khan was similar, he felt his people were better and proceeded to carve a bloody path across the east and prolifically bred to create more of his people.
Also I would recommend Idiocracy and reading upon the understanding of perception, for only a handful of people care enough to do their own research into a subject before forming an opinion. Most however will tend to have a first impression feel towards most subjects and topics, and then adamantly defend their own view without having ascertained all of the facts.
Example: Shooting at mcdonalds yesterday in munich, first report said it was a shooting at mcdonalds and 7 were dead and that it was ISIS.
Second report sad it was a mcdonalds inside of a shopping mall, 9 are confirmed dead, several wounded and the gunmen escaped a manhunt began.
Third report: Donald trump said "He had a dream that one day all americans can live safely behind a wall.
What just happened there?
Although I don't understand why you posted a picture of Trump, I really appreciate your thoughtful comment!
I have seen Idiocracy. I love that movie!
I understand that truth is highly subjective right now, but I believe it can be possible for us to come to the truth with investigation and intelligent research.
My entire blog is a learning project, so thoughtful dissemination of information is always welcome. I definitely have a future post planned about how we can arrive at the truth on various topics.
Again, thank you!
I posted the trump picture in regards to the 3rd news report regarding the shooting in Munich as a sort of joke, and demonstrating the fallacy our media provides to citizens.
Ah, I see. I understand now.
The media right now isn't exactly up to the standards it could be, but I understand it works within a larger system that might also not be what it could be.
I don't believe humanity has a certain nature. I think our "nature" is malleable, especially when it comes to violent tendencies. I will talk about this in the future, too.
