HUMAN BONDING IS WHAT IT IS
even proles seek more than that
ALSO GROUP HUNTS ARE AWESOME
@fallot I WONDER
if you offer them the bonding without the transcendent
MOST PEOPLE SEEM CONTENT IN THEIR JOBS
eventually the bonds will fade
But even to those, likely some acute sense of their brokenness is felt.
BECAUSE THEY DO NOT KNOW
yes sure, in the moment
WHAT ELSE THEY WOULD DO WITH THEIR TIME
YES
in the moment, they know no better
THEY LIVE IN THE MOMENT
perhaps they cannot express their need
AND THE RETROSPECTIVE? NO AWARENESS
group hunts another excuse for excessive alcoholic hedonism
NO, DEFINITELY NOT
@The Enlightened Shepherd I LIKE THE WAY YOU ARE THINKING HERE
how could they be aware? the world seems to be geared to distract them
BUT
even the ones set to be aware
AND HERE IS YOUR ARGUMENT
I THINK
THEY RESPOND BETTER TO BETTER STIMULUS
are deluded
I.E.
TAKE THE PROLE OUT OF THE CUBICLE
AND PUT HIM IN A FIELD
AND YOU HAVE A MORE CHEERFUL AND HELPFUL PROLE
NOT BY A HUGE AMOUNT
BUT IT COULD BE IMPORTANT
more than that, give the prole a reason to live, ultimately, something beyond just symbol stripped of meaning, something beyond just "the way things are done"
A perspective of meaningfullness is a symbolic view of the world.
then even cubicles would be fine
it's not that cubicles are a problem in themselves
though they aren't nice
a subsistence peasant and a cubicle worker
the difference between them is not merely their immediate environment
the peasant had a different worldview and approach to life
