I went out for a few hours this afternoon and did a bar for one with coworkers I hadn’t seen in almost two months. Although it wasn’t a work thing. A small group of us occasionally meet to discuss current affairs in the world. Which is why our tendency to have quite different opinions is very interesting. I think I may have a slightly more foreign perspective than my own.
We were talking about different events in the world and I like to argue and take a less popular approach. Which in this case death is a part of life and allows nature to go its way. I have come from an economic point of view for the number of possible deaths from this and have consulted with the right to life position of the elderly. I have taken the position that we are all living with borrowed time. The consequences of trying to save a few lives and many more lives to come.
It was interesting that it came up that “we want a country that cares for its elders”. But after later discussions, "we decided to buy something that could cost the lives of young people in other countries." As if these issues are not related.
The problem is that we separate our arguments and never have to create a coherent account across them. We can keep bandwagoning on things without any consequences. I used the example of brutal brutality at school one day. Who threatened him the next day. This is not acceptable to them. People remember. Online, however, there is no simple line narrative. No matter the next day, there is no pressure to be highly incongruous as no one even keeps an eye on our own position.
I have brought to the fore the economic consequences of what is going on and what has been going on for years. Then the simple step is to find the single reason to explain why the general step is tried and why one activity is better than another. However, with such high complexity, it is impossible. Even a few years from now, there won’t really be enough data to see the effects, and a lot of the metrics won’t be responsible for today’s events.
How I took things compoundly before and there are millions and one effects that will add to all the trends. Which will have far-reaching and far-reaching consequences. People thought that if they could accurately predict global influences, they would probably be fooling themselves. Because everything is interconnected and we will only consider aspects of our knowledge or we know what we would normally consider as our own position.
It seemed interesting to me. People are responsible to me for the "let the old man die" attitude. I think what affects my position is my relationship with death. Which means I'm not afraid to die, or even live in a world where I hope people will live forever. I treat so well in some parts of the world that people die of sickness and disease. I think my own history of death has given me such a view. That sometimes shit happens. People get sick and nothing can always be done. Although I know very old parents who are worried about dying from the coronavirus. When near literally, a strong wind can give them pneumonia.
The addition shows country-by-country responses. Comparing process and results in the short term. However all relevance to the macro approach is missing. As well as the economy being truly global, one region is about to collapse. It's like the 2008 lesson is already forgotten.
Well, that's how the world works now. We hyper-focus on one side until we get our attention in the next moment and we don’t even hold the remnants of memory. What happened was something that never happened. And perhaps for this reason, nothing really changes.
I hope you have enjoyed my blog...
See you next time...
After all I believe in community power , interaction , connection and engagement....
