well, there is a difference between documenting an event and interpreting an event

2019-12-10 01:48:18 UTC  

there is a fine line

2019-12-10 01:48:38 UTC  

from one side they were attacked, from the other they were attacked

2019-12-10 01:48:49 UTC  

used to be because it took TIME and MONEY to compile the history, there were MUCH fewer sources and thus they were held to a higher standard

2019-12-10 01:49:12 UTC  

when less people controlled the narrative it was easier to control

2019-12-10 01:49:20 UTC  

today, the internet devalues things like truth and art

2019-12-10 01:49:29 UTC  

its easier to read history as objectively as possible. the treaty of versaille crippled germany to the point of desperation

2019-12-10 01:49:37 UTC  

and you basically get what happens in the Dark Knight

2019-12-10 01:49:45 UTC  

it was HARDER to control actually

2019-12-10 01:49:46 UTC  

dont salt the earth

2019-12-10 01:49:58 UTC  

you have to go back to the 1800s to understand ww1 and 2

2019-12-10 01:50:05 UTC  

the abandoned child will burn his village to feel its warmth, etc

2019-12-10 01:50:28 UTC  

how is it harder to control?

2019-12-10 01:50:39 UTC  

that is why the church and monarchy didn't like the printing press

2019-12-10 01:50:42 UTC  

because if you are a gate-keeper and everyone has to come to you for information, all eyes are on you making it VERY hard for you to lie and get away with it continually

2019-12-10 01:50:45 UTC  

they didn't want to lose control over the narrative

2019-12-10 01:50:48 UTC  

now we see the same thing today

2019-12-10 01:50:58 UTC  

theres also arguments of authority

2019-12-10 01:51:00 UTC  

the mainstream media is losing control of the narrative

2019-12-10 01:51:09 UTC  

most of what we know is an argument of authority

2019-12-10 01:51:24 UTC  

I think it is very easy to lie not hard

2019-12-10 01:51:32 UTC  

i have no idea if the earth is flat, but scientists tell me it isnt

2019-12-10 01:51:40 UTC  

so i believe them

2019-12-10 01:51:42 UTC  

one thing i came to realize is that people are stupid and believe anything

2019-12-10 01:51:47 UTC  

authorities are important. otherwise there is no true nor is there any facts

2019-12-10 01:51:52 UTC  

i have ways i guess of proving it logically, but im not bothered enough

2019-12-10 01:51:56 UTC  

the moon is made of cheese

2019-12-10 01:51:58 UTC  

prove me wrong

2019-12-10 01:52:04 UTC  

authorites need to be held accountable

2019-12-10 01:52:21 UTC  

you can't just let anyone pose as an engineer and build a bridge

2019-12-10 01:52:25 UTC  

you'll get people killed

2019-12-10 01:52:31 UTC  

the marxists have it right that a lot of things are just interpretation

2019-12-10 01:52:40 UTC  

but they go so far as to say theres no objectionable proof to anything

2019-12-10 01:52:50 UTC  

and that value is constructed

2019-12-10 01:52:54 UTC  

they are half righ

2019-12-10 01:52:55 UTC  

value is subjective

2019-12-10 01:53:00 UTC  

no it ist

2019-12-10 01:53:08 UTC  

Worth and value are distinct.

2019-12-10 01:53:17 UTC  

intepretation IS Important but it's not AS important as WHAT Is being interpreted

2019-12-10 01:53:19 UTC  

a human is more valuable than a spec of dust

2019-12-10 01:53:20 UTC  

i take the austrian economics perspective
