From #murdoch resignation letter:
""Self-serving bureaucracies are seeking to silence those who would question their provenance and purpose. Elites have open contempt for those who are not members of their rarefied class"
What the fuch does the tax avoiding billionaire think he is, if not "elite" ?
Bullshit #populism of the sort that has poisoned our polity.....
@jackLondon Murdoch THE ABSOLUTE WORSE THING (POS) to happen to American news and media reporting in my lifetime. One of many negative extremes that human beings will take Capitalism to. It can really make you question how good of a species we are, to be able to easily harm each other for personal profit. 🤑🤢
@jackLondon You can say there are a lot of good people out there but there are also a lot of shits, along with the sheep. It does not bode well for the species or the planet. ☠️
@jackLondon These are natural or volunteer sheep happy, apathetic, or just not strong enough to resist or assert. Maybe it was that self serving fantasy that they gulped down. Easier to just hoof it down the shoot to their shearing. 😳
There are various breeds of sheep - merino is one I beleive
None of them volunteer for anything and I am not up on research into their emotional state.....or whether such animals have fantasies
@jackLondon I’ve been speaking in metaphorical, an analogy basis. You understand that, yes? Or are you accusing me of insulting the sheep? 😋
I am standing up for sheep - and against the othering of people you disagree with by decribing them as a different species
Othering is a base form of argument - all human beings are people - not sheep
Outside the New Testament that is - where Jesus is said to have divided people into sheep and goats
Presumably #russelBrand is a goat....
@jackLondon I am describing a characteristic associated with sheep and often attributed to humans, you’re objection is noted. 🤔Have a good day.
@Huntn00
I don't think sheep get to vote.... humankind is not perfectable - no surprise that. Planning on the basis that it is seems to me an error that will always result in disappointment
