“More than at any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness. The other, to total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly.” — Woody Allen, “My Speech to the Graduates” (1979)
Forty-three freakin’ years ago and it still holds up beautifully.
Since this appears to be PREhistoric, no one is going to know what they chose or judge it’s right/wrongness. But one thing for sure, if they don’t progress, they go extinct.
Depends on if you believe on making the best of opportunities or waiting for the manna from Heaven to fall in your mouth by not doing a thing other than whining that it is owed to you because __Fill_in_the__Blank.
I am watching Senator Tom Ossoff interview Judge Jackson… I thought my sons were brilliant! He is 8 days younger than my eldest, and 4 days short of 2 years older than my youngest. February mid-late 80s produced some intelligent millennials!
The trouble is that it takes generations for history to sort it out, and even then, some will dispute it. There are still people who think Hitler was on the right side and the holocaust didn’t happen.
Whoever wins a fight promptly declares that victory has proven them to be on ‘The Right Side Of History’; and goes on to write the ‘history’ of the fight.
According to this arc, the only significant changes since prehistoric eras seems to be in clothing and food gathering. Motivations seem to be the same now as then.

I wouldn’t call that politics but business. On the other hand politics is all about business greasing the hand of politics

…and therein lies a problem with the bipolar political structure: one side being “right”.

Shouldn’t that read “Left” and “Right”? After all, sometime RIGHT is WRONG.

Is Wiley suggesting, the actions of politicians are driven by greed and avarice?
Oh no, that just can’t be. For surely they are honourable men.

Nailed it. Politicians seem to accrue money faster than almost any business with zero risk.

It’s ironic that these days comedians are being intentionally political, while politicians are being unintentionally comedians.

This is actually the Dawn of Business. Politics was invented later to cover up the get-rich-quick disasters.

Actually that is the dawn of business, Politics dawned when someone figured out they could get other people to give them stuff for doing nothing.
