      @zhouwu 3 роки тому +45

      @Big_Iron58
      That's a good answer. But I have another answer that people won't like:
      Popular culture and the way it's easier and easier for anybody to publish anything.
      I would argue you've got a quality Vs quantity problem.
      But this view is very undemocratic and very elitist.
      It basically goes that the harder it is to do something, the more effort the people who do it have to try to get it done, and the higher the quality.
      The easier it is to do stuff, the more the quality sinks down to the lowest common denominator.
      I think that it's a very fine balance between an aristocracy, where a group thinks that they are innately better than everyone else and start to pretty much treat everyone else however they like, and that usually means badly, which you get in oligarchic or dictatorship type countries like Russia or China or North Korea. And on the other side of the coin, you've got absolute democracies, which I don't think actually exist, where everyone is equal, and there is no advantage in education or trying to get promoted or anything, which, in my opinion, is another form of hell.
      But that's just my own personal opinion. But it's probably not going to be a very popular opinion, because people tend to look through the lenses of either:
      'Everything Communist is evil'
      Or 'Everything capitalist is evil'
      Or 'Everything that has no real ideological moral backbone is evil', so basically, my position pretty much puts me into everybody's bad books, but there you go!

    • @zhouwu
      @zhouwu 3 роки тому +7

      @Big_Iron58
      I guess we can create a subculture of people who make an effort to understand stuff before writing or speaking within the larger context of the pop culture movement that isn't elitist to the point of exclusivity, but nor is it so populist, everybody's opinions carries exactly the same weight. I mean, this is just my posit for an initiative we could start right now, if you care to join me. But that's literally all I've got:
      An idea for a group. There is nothing else. No name. No theme. No membership criteria. No nothing. Just a very vague idea.

    By the standard of today's interviews with modern politicians, he comes across surprisingly well. He answers most of her questions, and isn't afraid to commit to clear policy positions. So the audience gets some real information from the interview.
    Today this would be very rare, perhaps because all politicians now are heavily media trained. They tend to dodge the questions they are actually asked and instead play safe, just regurgitating their prepared talking points and scripted sound bites.
    So Biden in 1982 was way ahead of today's politicians, and worth listening to. But sadly the Biden of 1982 is also way ahead of the Biden we have now, 38 years later.

I should also say, for the benefit of Chris Redding and others who may think in the same way, that the Good Friday Agreement was made with the assistance of the EU, and with the enormous assistance of the USA, which worked as an honest broker, and for a British Prime Minister to fail to recognise these facts or to brush them aside as not worthy of note is contemptible, disrespectful and ungrateful. If the Good Friday Agreement were to break down in consequence of the stupidity and short-sightedness of the British government, there might well be a return to the Troubles. Speaking for myself, I am hoping that the Irish government and the EU will ensure that the agreement is kept, and that the province of Northern Ireland may become part of Eire in the not too distant future, so that the English may continue on their merry, feckless way without causing too much damage to others.

      I’m pretty neutral on the Israel issue, but the reason the US considers Israel such a close ally is because it is important to the voter demographics of both parties, the Jewish community on the Democratic side and the evangelicals on the Republican side. The US literally pays Israel billions every year to be a loyal ally. The European alliance on the other hand is one of foreign policy concerns first and foremost. Neither side likes it overly much (the US feels Europe isn’t pulling its weight in the alliance, while Europe is sick and tired of being dragged into Middle Eastern and African conflicts), but the necessity of containing Russia makes both sides stick with the alliance. Russia is a rusting and decrepit husk of the old Soviet Union, but its nuclear arsenal, cyber expertise and decades of practice spreading covert propaganda in foreign countries makes it a significant security threat to European safety and American stability and markets.
      The US abandoning either Israel or Europe over something so simple as "acting like an ally" is really unlikely. Just look at Turkey, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, they are downright hostile to the US but still all allied to it.

      He suffered from being a stutterer in his childhood/teenage years. But with hard work and patience, he managed to get over it. (That is, until it re-manifested itself in his old age.) By the time he was sworn in as a Senator at the age of 30, his stuttering was nowhere to be found.
