7. The article loses all its impact by one of the pictures.
Edited on Sat Nov-27-10 02:33 AM by RandomThoughts
The picture shown in so many places, of the guy with finger in silence position.


That is not Republican picture, nor conservative picture, nor Christian picture, but a secrecy picture. And just like their beliefs do not define them, since some people believe they are things they are not, the person that picked that picture to put it in that article does not define the people. Not saying I know what their beliefs are, but saying they probably don't completely know either.


And there are some good conservative and Republican ideas, but secrecy is for control, however the private sector does the same thing, and that is what libertarians do not recognize, or if they do, they do not mention because it benefits them.



Although my comment is mostly about the person that picked those pictures, and not about the people in them. And don't really want to comment on them when commenting on much of the entertainment they have added to culture, even if parts of their personal thoughts on society could be argued as better or worse.



Although I actually do like and think their intents are best from their perceptions and experiences. If they are wrong, not saying I would say such a thing, it would not be from intent or heart, but from thought and education. however the person that picked that picture is showing a different thought, since he is making the secrecy comment.



And to go a little deeper, it is possible that their work or what they show in their work does not match what they believe, or that they are used for an agenda that is not their agenda, nor for them. How could that be? Maybe because many Republicans want to use many workers for themselves without the workers knowing it, rules applied back. So even if a 'Republican' makes some film, it does not mean it is only seen as having the same views that they have for what a 'Republican' is.

And the same thing could be said about many Democrat ideas, since it is not a Democrat Republican thing, but about other issues.

Thats not exactly right, they are not used for something that is not their agenda, but for something that is, but that they might not understand that it is. For instance if they think some platform would accomplish what they think is best in their heart, and it is not, then what is best can also show through their films. So it is not like they are used, but what they intend can be seen even if their information is incomplete, or not supporting what they think they do. The same can be said in areas that I could support based on some bad information, and hence why supporting concepts and ideas, not something like a party label or any label makes more sense. Sorta fits knowing someones heart.

So when Mel does his freedom speech, he might think that matches Republican ideas, but it may or may not, and it may be more about other concepts, or Buffy in her quest for fighting back against bad, she might think that is something akin to a political or economic party, but the thoughts and ideas in the concepts are not about that. Such translations into party or economics is just a thought of best way to do what they think they are doing from their perspective.

Hard to explain, but you can see good heart in many things regardless of someones belief of some political or economic ideas. And there is good and bad in both economic systems and both political systems, the problem is when both parties like the bad parts more for self gain reasons.
