Something doesn't add up in your analysis.
- jondubois 10y agoForcing people to do things doesn't necessarily entail holding them at gunpoint. You can make anyone do anything you want if you can bend their perception of reality - They are completely ignorant and powerless. If you're holding someone at gunpoint, at least they have the power to beg for mercy.
- euyyn 10y agoSo your opinion is that big corporations are forcing people to move to big cities by manipulating their perception of reality? Like with ads that suburban or rural life is crap, or what?
- throwanem 10y agoMaybe, but if not, it isn't evident in what you quote of GP. I'll give you a million dollars tomorrow - I promise. See what I mean?
