I’ve been trying to learn about the myriad of political schools of thought. All over the internet these words are thrown around willy nilly. Used and misused with no regard for the outcome or collateral damage. Kind of like Weapons of Mass Distraction. Most people get their news from some mobile app. No matter which one you choose , right, left, up, down or far out in the cosmos, the headlines are fed to you courtesy of the AlGorRythym. The more you click, the more you get. Constantly reinforcing a viewpoint or viewpoints depending on what you click on. This would be how all those ads for adult diapers pop up after you search Google for a replacement Camelback bladder.
After self-brainwashing with help from the AlGorRythym we have become unable to accept the existence of any point of view that is not ours or of someone we trust, value, emulate or worship. Instead of respecting, listening and talking with, we disrespect, shout down and ignore.
Since everyone pretty much self organized into loosely defined groups throwing – isms and – ocracies all over the interwebs leaving them laying around for people to stumble across and not really know what it is or what to do with it. Or do they have the time or motivation to do some learning.
“But it’s really shiny and my friends like it.”
“Everyone else is doing it, I want to do it too! What is it again?”
Out of all of the charts and matrixes (matrix?) the one, in my opinion the most important one, that I didn’t see anywhere was…………
Answer below informative charts.
Meritocracy
government or the holding of power by people selected on the basis of their ability
Imagine a society where the best qualified person for the position actually filling said position. Craziness, right?
We the F%#n' People
