In Other Stupidity Today
China has begun negotiating with the Dali Lama and has come up with this:
- Stop supporting independence for Tibet
- Support the Beijing Olympics
Isn’t this the same garbage this ridiculous government has been on about since before these “talks” with the Dali Lama begun? Stupidity that is dressed up as progress is simply well dressed stupidity!
I am against the Beijing Olympics, but I do not blame the government of China for these Olympics. The problem is the crazy people that on one hand say the Olympics are about unity and so on, but then select China of all places to host this thing.
Now these people in this crazy regime (which has proven itself to be crazy in so many other ways) want to try to act as if they have turned over a new leaf by making stupid demands that they have been making while simply pretending it is something new that they are doing.
Let’s say you and I disagree. I decide I want to begin talks with you to get us working together. So we both come to the table and I begin with this:
“Why don’t you just believe whatever I believe, shut up, and do as I say and we will all be happier and the world will be a better place?” (I feel like I am writing lines for “The Godfather” or “The Sopranos” or something of the like)
This is how ridiculous the approach that the government of china is taking. Think about what this says. It says I have the power to destroy you and I am just laying out the facts to you sort of as a last chance.
What this method does not say is that I am being flexible and looking to reach an agreement that will work for both of us.
The government of China is clearly crazy and the Olympics are officially disgraced by the poor judgment of choosing China to host.
Now we are being forced to watch this foolishness paraded around as progress. I am disgusted.
