The Flip Flopper Candidate
A prime example of how the news entertainment frames the entire political theater (that's right, it's entertainment) by creating the so-called issues is the subject of flip-flopping.
Anyone with common sense constantly acknowledges new knowledge that of necessity changes the way we think about things. Only the ignorant are able to stand firmly on the empirical knowledge of the passing moment. The mind grows and develops, adapts and makes changes. It is absolutely necessary in the commodification of individuals in a routinized environment. Business thrives on this very premise.
So the idea that a political candidate has to be afraid of being labeled a "flip-flopper" is not only ludicrous, but it is an insult to the public asked to involve themselves in such theater production nonsense.
I want to see the change of mind. I want a goddamn amnesiac in office. I am sick of the stupid stubborn jerks that can continue to pull the proverbial train over the cliff when they have the ability, the authorithy, the power and the will of humanity on their side. Why do they destroy humanity? To serve the will of power that is concentrated in a relatively few hands.
Communism amounts to the same thing as laissez faire capitalism, contrary to the misleading rhetoric. Power always lands in the hands of the few who hold onto as much assets as they are capable of, and continue to use those assets to generate more and more. That is what is behind the political theatrical production every four years. In America the public involvement in politics isn't so much voting, it is more about debating for amusement. It is a hobby. Our votes amount to the same as voting for the best performer on American Idol. In the end we are getting the same thing, regardless of the person we vote for.
Is America ready for a woman president? What a stupid question. Of course it is. It has been for two generations. The British are no more civilized than anyone else, nor Israelis, nor Indians. The question isn't whether the public is ready for it, the question is do the framers of the debate accept it. Do the counters of the vote accept it. Do the Corporate interests think that this particular person can represent their interests most effectively.
The news entertainment industry throws these scraps to the public to kick, punch and gouge each other over like the Nazi's did to the starving trainloads of Jews during World War Two. They then film our reaction. It is as disgusting as watching a consciousless torturer muse over the plight of his victim.
