Just stating what I think is obvious... Discuss

Societies norms make everything "ordinary" and classify things as "normal". However practices can be questioned and indefinately changed when one questions the practice and decides to perhaps change the ways that a pracitce is carried out. For example right here in the forums, there is the video about the uh squirrel melt, many users on this site have deemed the act disgusting and perhaps even backwards, but what makes it wrong? Who sets the standards that eating a chicken is right, but a squirrel wrong? As much as people deem to be different, they will always linger on the norms, norms that have been inscribed in us since we were small, we try to be different, but as we try, we only play into other generalizations and normalities which make up the world we live in today. Everything is indeed questionable, but in questioning things, we can make ourselves outcasts and deemed strange by those who either enforce the standards, or perhaps even make them Dude im so bored i wrote all this shit, godamn

Anyone running for governor of california... Most people that run for governor of california promise so many things, and then once they get elected those promises never get upholded. Year after year governors have promised to fix up the California school system(classes at my school and others are prob 35+ students per class), but each year teacher associations are screaming for the school system to be fixed up.

Obviously so, although I've come to a conclusion that some people in this forum do not question their own theories. As in: "I'm right and you're wrong and there's nothing that you can do or say to make me change my mind."

They may not question themselves right here and now in front of your eyes, but everyones opinions are likey to change, given time. Its time and experience that have the biggest change on your opinions imo.
Clouds in the SkySalvaged from archive19 Sept 2006, 15:24
Then again absolutely, but IMO; we should adopt that particular way of thinking in every situation in life...at any given time. It would actually allow us to step into someone elses shoes, come to more agreements and maybe even dminish useless fighting :P

Most the time the electoral college agrees with the majority of it's states vote, but not always.). SORRY CLOUDS FOR GOING OFF TOPIC ~

Rules need changing. So he's not the peoples guy no ? So whats the point of voting then ? Anyways fact still remains Bush runs USA to a large extent. He has the final say on Americas issues be it war, global warming. he's the man with the big red button as they say.

Anyways fact still remains Bush runs USA to a large extent. He has the final say on Americas issues be it war, global warming. he's the man with the big red button as they say. Well that's our system of government. The people do have a say, but the electoral college gets the final say for the entire state. The point of voting is to hope that your party gets the majority of the state and the electoral college votes for the same person. The president of America has the final say in any bill/law that is going to be passed. He has the authority to veto/accept a bill/law. But the president cannot do anything without the approval of congress. Pre Iraq war in one of Bushes speaches you will hear him asking congress for aproval. When our founding fathers put together the constitution they wanted to be damn sure no person could abuse the government of the people(King George the 3rd was extremly abusive). The checks and balance system prevents any government group from having too much power.
Big OzzieSalvaged from archive20 Sept 2006, 18:21
When are you peeps gonna learn how the system REALLY works? The American President is just a Puppet....a political Pawn, a Figurehead...much the way the Queen of England is but with a little more power. Sure, the president can declare war in an emergency....but it takes approval by the "lessor" members in the political system to keep it going. Sure he can Veto a Bill, but Congress can over ride the veto and make it Law. Do you think that when a President makes a speech, he wrote it? No, he has at least 1/2 dozen professional speech writers that do nothing but write "comments by the President" and "speeches" It is the best written ones that get chosen. The political figure may edit, add or delete things to the speech, but his main concern is making it look like it is his words coming of the cuff. Very few presidents wrote their own speeches and statements....I'll try to research who they were. The government is run by the political machine....democrat, republican...no matter, it is which party holds the most seats. Have an evenly chaired government and odds are, nothing will get accomplished. Everyone likes to poke fun at GW (I find myself laughing at his stumbling antics)...but the thing is, it is those around him that are really running things. When George Fucks up, they all look bad! The members of his cabinet have the most influence in the structure followed by the Senate and Congress. Than everything falls back on political favoritism's. In other words...WHO KISSES ASS THE BEST!
QuackersSalvaged from archive20 Sept 2006, 18:25
Hmmm... Actually id argue that not everything is questionable. Its not questionable that my name is Jack for example. Its a raw basic fact, its on my birth certificate, registered in somerset house (or wherever they file them away, i've got a feeling its somerset house). To be blunt, you'd have to be an idiot to even bother trying to question it.
Clouds in the SkySalvaged from archive20 Sept 2006, 18:32
That then again depends, Lets take for an example that this person is SURE that your name is Alfred. The subject and me will get into an argument regarding your name which will be the theme being questioned.

everything is questionable but what really is worth being questioned? your own beliefs? politics? the color of Britney's underwear? Questions can make us stronger- How can we cure cancers? Questions can destroy us- Are you now or have you ever been a member of the communist party? Off topic/ our current political system is run by corporate and foreign interest behind the scenes. Most federal politicians are now merely puppetts. America is being played and raped : party affiliation has nothing to do with it. The system of checks and balances our forfathers put in place has failed because to many citizens have failed to partcipate. It has been infected with a deadly cancer while we worried about our credit card bills and how much mortage we could afford. We have been so consumed with the daily task of keeping our heads above water that we can no longer mind our keepers. They are now prepared to wage all of our lives against the world to maintain that power.

Authority is questionable. What gives another person the power to tell me what to do? The social contract that we choose to live by in our countries. WE, as a society, at least in Canada, vote people in to our governments. We choose to give them the right and authority to create laws for our country and society at large. We then choose to give them the right to hire enforcement agencies to enforce those laws, for the good of the majority of society. That's in a large way. In the small ways, if you're in my home, or on my property, you would not only need to follow the laws of my country, but those of my home. Like it or not. If you decide to not follow those laws, you would need to leave. If you chose not to leave, I would then remove you. ( YOU being a general you, not you crazy joe as a specific person) this is a personal home, or a business. Laws that were passed previously in years gone by, do not always seem to count or are important in current years. That is where you get civil disobedience, protesting, and trying to change those laws. But until or unless those laws do get changed, you can still get charged under them, and that record carries even after the law changes.
