  • SCI-FI of the cold war era.

    [I]t was different reading SCI-FI in the 60’s and 70’s than it is today. Memories of the world war, the vietnam era, the cold war and space race provided context for them. The promise of a star trek future more so. Watergate, Vietnam Exit, and The oil crisis was a death blow. And so these things made us look for options. Which is why we threw ourselves at technology. when princess leah said “you are our only hope” that reflected our perception of the age of computers. So we had star wars, alien, Reagan Revolution, and the age of computers to run to. When I found neuromancer (1981 or 82) and then Snow Crash that was the future most of us went out to build. Why? unlike the cold war which was out of our control, building the world of Neuromancer was WITHIN our control… so we live it today. What I notice most is that the time for contemplation (demand for self entertainment when bored) is gone, and we pay the price for it. Good trade maybe. But the ‘pace’ of the world is insane by those standards, and even then, the adults thought the pace of the world compared to the war era was insane. My grandmother had a red-x painted on the door, and neighbors dropped off deliveries at the end of the property, and people hitched up horses to go to town for what they needed. A generation before that was without electricity or running water.

    —A god of lies. who gave us the dark ages. muslim conquest. and the destruction of every civilization of the ancient world. You don’t understand. Jehovah is a demon and his worshippers are his fools.—

    I mean, it’s not complicated: without our constant attempt to preserve heroism by either christian morality, civilization by colonization, or postwar heroism, our only incentive then is to adopt *their* strategy of self interest above all, and return to a war of all against all.

    They have taken away our claim to the moral high ground despite having dragged them all kicking and screaming out of ignorance, superstition, poverty, sharvation, hard labor, disease, child mortality, early early death – for profit. So we shall simply return to pragmatism: rule.

    again, if the people had not been weak and corrupt (and still corrupt) they would have not had colonialism. The recent elections illustrate a shift backward and that india will not correct her problems and will remain a third world country, joining africa and the middle east.

    Out of 1b people you should statistically produce more outliers, with more incentive to succeed. The question is WHY CANT YOU DO THIS AT HOME? Why do you always fail? The answer is that westerners produced the only quality middle class in the world. Why can’t you?
