Let’s make some noise!

Yeah! Noise! That solved everything!

… they could have named a few profiteers, couldn’t they? Or is the point that one should simply get angry before engaging the problems at hand?

Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

- Macbeth – Scene V
Shakespeare

While there is value in action one must also value inaction of a sort: the jury’s out on the means to end the abuses of power which flavor society to the point at which every tongue seems embittered and cynical, every smile a conclusion to a twisted sardonic declarative… no need to get angry (even if it’s a rightful response); get thoughtful, get rational. Look at this mess pragmatically.

No sense listening to that tale until you’re deaf, right?

  1. ex nihilo Says:

    well, if you can make money riling up the emotionally unstable teens meanwhile implanting some message about “war profiteering”, you may be fulfilling your quota for pragmatism. now, is it thoughtful? that’s a different question.

    i think the problem lies in focussing your efforts at the right sources, capitalism? government? equal rights? technology? all are equally drunk-worthy endeavors in my opinion.
