Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for January 22, 2014
Transcript:
Joe: So...Jeff Bezos plans to be king of the world... Bob: No...emperor. Joe: Whatever...and you know this...how? Bob: Connecting the dots... Dot 1: Bezos buys the Washington Post. Dot 2: He undermines the credibility of other news outlets so he can control what people believe. Joe: Let me guess...Dot 3: The robot drones we saw in the news are really a mechanized army he's going to unleash to enslave all human kind! Bob: See? That wasn't so difficult now, was it... Joe: Given your cable news viewing preference, it was the obvious conclusion.

Or, it could be that Jeff is going to pull a Ronald Regan and do and say just enough publicly to provide proof of concept and make it seem like you might pull it off and get your competition to spend themselves into the ground trying to be first and at least better than what you claiming in public.

-people will believe anything if it’s in print.-Not all of us. I, for example, don’t believe your post, even though it appears in print on my monitor….

Please tell us more about how all ideologies can broadcast their beliefs FOR FREE on broadcast news outlets. They can’t even do it on local cable.- You are only ‘free’ to compete for hearts and minds if you have the bucks to buy the time.

The Post? I thought it was MSNBC he was after! I heard some weird things coming out of their mouths until I quit listening.

If my grandson’s birthday present doesn’t show up on time Bezos won’t have my vote. Of course if he plans on being emperor a vote will be moot. Ask the Russians who oppose Tsar Vladimir.

Ah, subjectivism. The preferred method of perception for the masses and scientists alike. It’s so much easier to just use rhetoric, dogma, and the pigeonholing of facts than try to use objectivism. Why, with the latter, we’d have to think for ourselves! Thinking hard, no fun, prefer be told what think.
Omniman almost 11 years ago
People will believe whatever they’re told, because it’s so much easier than thinking for themselves.

Regan used SDI to help bring down the Soviet Union by getting them to invest so much into their attempt to get it first and better than what we were publicly announcing. Those efforts over stressed their economy and kept them from concentrating on areas that would have them keep their social structure from coming apart.
