So i want to know....

You really need to watch torturing Democracy... all 3 parts available online free here...


I have so many thoughts on this topic... and little time to say them.

one thought... ok... so all this talk about how, "if the president authorizes it, and lawyers say it's all coool"... then "it's all coool".... ok, right... but by this logic... Hitlers "crime" was having crappy lawyers? right? no, that's not right...
was his crime not changing Germany's laws to state that he COULD be an evil monster?? no. that's not right either...
What if Germany had become safer after he carried out all the Facist actions, and had a police state, with no dissidents and no terror, and no criminals... was he THEN a patriot, and in the right?

NO (says I) his CRIME... was NOT a crime in the "codified" and demonstrable form... it was in doing Evil and Wrong... It was international as well... so... what i am asking is...

In this world that is being created by pundits today, if Hitler had better lawyers, and had written legal memos authorizing his usage of concentration death camps... WOULD HE BE WALKIN' FREE TODAY, going on TV talking about how he was doing "not the right thing... but what was necessary"?

What are the ethics of this...

is anyone else sick of all the hype over "making us better"?

Personally i think the ingenuity and creativity of humanity UNAIDED is unparalleled... i think we are stifled by what we are told we "CAN" and "CANNOT" do, or think, from a very young age... when people are allowed to, and encouraged to think OUTSIDE the box... we can surprise even ourselves.
(I'm not saying that we are UNcreative for having made computers... and anything that follows from that... only that I'd like to see pop media stop being so easily WOWED by anything "new-tech".

Researchers are developing a neural implant that can think independently—just like the human brain does. Creepy? Yeah. Cool? Definitely. Scientists at the University of Florida aren’t just creating a neural implant that can translate human brain signals, but one that can act independently to increase its efficiency and synergy with the brain as it learns new things.
