No Subject Today
so yeah, i was thinking about politics this morning while making some cream of wheat. maple and brown sugar to be exact. and while i was eating my yum yum's, here is what i was thinking.
politics is all about manipulation. what you can get people to think without letting them know what you are really thinking. im sure there are some innocents out there whom are really trying to do the right thing, but they are either manipulating us to think they are innocent, or are being manipulated themselves, takes us back to the original crux.
is this a case of the ends justify the means? is it okay to be manipulated in order to preserve a way of life, or something equally as arbitrary?
so, thats my thought for today. hopefully i will continue to think throughout the day, and maybe just maybe every 1 in a 1000 thoughts will be something semi intelligent. and maybe, just maybe every 1 in 1000 semi intelligent thoughts will be something remotely intelligent. and maybe, just maybe every 1 in 1000 remotely intelligent thoughts will be something original. and maybe just maybe 1 in every 1000 original thoughts will be something deep.
i dont think this one falls in this category though :(
man, when i started this i was happy, now im sad cause there is only like a 0.01% chance that ill have a deep thought now.
damn.
