None of the Above

by Marble

Forcrying out loud we have debate about solid scientific models in this country, how can those percieving bias on the other side be considered in any way legitimate? I agree with Machiavelli, perception is reality. But that is only in politics because politics is artifice. It aims at misrepresenting the world. If you take that as the basis of your reality, then of course there is no objective perspective. What then is the point of communication? Solely bending others to your will?

This is why I love quonsar: As he said at metafilter recently:

steve, let me explain something to you: nobody at all gives a flying fuck about john kerry. no matter how bad he is, no matter if he sat out vietnam stoned on heroin, if he fucks goats for sport, lies about his dick size, whatever. you won't change anyones mind by running down kerry - most of us lefties would vote for an inanimate carbon rod over george bush. why waste your breath?
