More about Love

This is a very lazy post. I’m sorry. [It was late, I was tired].

I’ve said all I have to about this subject

Now Roger Hallam has summoned clarity on the same topic in his response to the recent power shift across the Atlantic

He expresses no confidence that his scheme will work, there are many factors beyond our control, but he knows it might work, and that is enough. That is something to fight and die for….

Except you don’t have to.

  1. This one was missing from my feed. Roger is very persuasive here. I agree with him that when there’s no viable politics for people to vote for on the left, (just the centre of the same) they start to find the “F” word attractive. He makes a good point about the art of listening too. I suppose that’s it with social media, everyone is shouting, many of them full of hurt and grievance, but no real indication anyone is listening, since there’s no way of knowing if any of the likes and follows they get are genuine or merely transactional. The idea of sitting down together face to face in small community groups, everyone having their say, and feeling listened to is an attractive one. Love or money? We crave the first, but in its absence are all too ready to settle for the second.

    1. We don’t only need to receive, but also to share love, it makes us happier and healthier.

      I find this real solution to much of the human world’s trouble is also a beautiful parallel to my search for romantic love. Maybe its because I am overly sensitive to the idea, but I think its real.

      1. Indeed so. I liked Roger’s joke about how when do men stop being “F”, answer, when they get a girlfriend. Expressing love and compassion for others, we see ourselves differently too.

      2. I see you take exception to the F word, I guess because you don’t want to cause offence. I don’t like it either. It is an ugly harsh word. It shouldn’t be…

        This from Wikipedia;
        “The Italian term fascismo is derived from fascio, meaning ‘bundle of sticks’, ultimately from the Latin word fasces. This was the name given to political organizations in Italy known as fasci, groups similar to guilds or syndicates.”

        Life is complicated, I meet, and get on with many people who display fascist tendencies, I want to treat them with love, but not to empower or encourage their fascist views. I guess you don’t think it fair to liken people’s harsh world views with what happened in Germany in the 30’s but Fascism didn’t come from nowhere. If we avoid the word until fascism is a real and present power, we are already defeated.

      4. More a paranoid over caution of the words I type into a computer, and a mindfulness of the algorithms that might be tracking them. 🙂 Will even my mealy mouthed ramblings be parsed, say in the 2030’s for their ideological impurity?
