  • Not 20 years later, but at all. At least that I’d their claim and I haven’t seen it debunked do far.

    I’ll reluctantly link a right wing article that at least tries to come across not overly sensational:

    The Free Beacon also obtained a copy of Harris’s October 1987 job application for a law clerk position in the Alameda County district attorney’s office. On that form, Harris, who was in law school at the time, listed several jobs—including a month-long clerical job at a stock brokerage—in a section that asked her to list every position she held in the last 10 years. McDonald’s is absent.

    Harris lists three jobs on the application and five in total on an attached résumé, according to the documents, obtained through a public records request. Harris, who submitted the application as a second-year student at then-University of California, Hastings College of the Law, included granular life experience on her résumé—“extensive travel in India, Africa, [and] Europe” and “lived in Montreal, Canada for six years”—but not McDonald’s.

    They’ve got photos of the resume and all.

    Bulldozed over them. Alive and dead. Couldn’t take the gore no longer.

    I have empathy for him, honesty. He belived the propaganda about defending the country an all that. Then was ordered to to horrible things. He experienced the difference between a lie told and a lie lived and just couldn’t deal with it.

    He not the bad guy here.



  • Then there’s the first six months of caring for a newborn, which is intense.

    We have 7 month old Twins. Intense is a good word, the last 7 months have been the hardest of my life so far, and I am hitting on 40. That said, it’s far from trauma, as far as I understand the term.

    Also, my father and by brother died 10 and 5 years ago, both before they were old aged. I am well aware of the concept of moratility, even of my wife’s and children’s mortality. It doesn’t weigh on me personally, honestly. It’s just a reality that one has to accept, as there is nothing that can be done about it.

    Aside from global warming

    I get what you are saying. But that improvement has been possible only because of global warming. Today we have more energy (=workforce) at our hands than ever before. This has imported things, but it’s living on bored time Global warming will start to deteriate our world in multiple ways, I fact it is doing so right now.

    A collapse of this system build on sand is a very real possibility. And it is a very real possibility that it will take less than a generation to happen.









  • Ergänzend:

    Westdeutschland hat seit den 60ern zunehmend eine Liberalisierung erfahren, in dem Sinn das die immer noch prägenden Weltbilder (Auch Familienbilder) aus dem dritten Reich sich langsam öffnen konnten. Das hat in Westdeutschland zwar auch Subkultirell angefangen (Punk, Frauenbeweging, etc), ist aber zunehmend auch in den Mainstream aufgenommen worden. In der DDR sind solche Bewegungen in Subkultirell geblieben, der Mainstream war stärker Staatlich geprägt. In den 90ern, nach der Wende, hat man da wenig getan um die Bürger der ehemaligen DDR kulturell einzubinden. Es fand keine Aufarbeitung statt.

    Entsprechend konnte rechtes Gedankengut weiter existieren und wurde an die folgenden Generationen weitergegeben. Das fällt uns jetzt auf die Füße.

    Ich denke mal das ist insgesamt sehr Unterkomplex dargestellt, aber ich hoffe man sieht wo ich damit hin will. Das ist zumindest Möglicherweise ein Faktor unter vielen.
