My dog is never going to learn anything from Trump presidency. If there is shooting in the streets he'll be anxious. He will want to flee, but on a leash he'll opt to fight. Then he'll look at me with that "What the hell was that?" look. How do I tell him it is just a stupid exercise for the humans?

Perhaps kind like Boehner..? I have to admit that I'm interested in the rhetoric that says: We should elect Trump as President because we need to get it out of our system. It's akin to postmodernism. We _need_ to manually walk as far towards the absurd as we can in order to teach ourselves (or some of us) what "absurd" means, tacitly. It's not enough to be warned by those with the ability to run it forward in their heads. Even those brainiacs are susceptible to confirmation bias. So we _need_ to do the work, actually go out into the void as far as possible so we can experience it, memorize it, know what it means ... to, say, have a reality TV personality run the country. Perhaps Cameron has an anarchist homunculus? Just burn it down! Free your mind and ... Burn. It. Down. -- ☣ glen ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com
