RE: So, what if we are about to go extinct? (Ecotrain)
Indeed, witnessing hypocrisy is an infuriating thing. At the same time, most of us are guilty of it to a greater or lesser degree.
Fortunately there are also some incredible people around doing amazing things - leading by example. Check out and support @ecotrain to give more power to inspiring people who are dedicated to being the change.
As for oligarchs and corrupt politicians who would bury themselves underground. They should be aware that there may yet be someone left above ground who would certainly put a big padlock on the door.
Usually, I'd agree with you on hypocrisy but the scale and scope of this problem make your comparison null and void, IMO.. This is hypocrisy on an unprecedented level....
Luthier, eh?
I worked for Larrivee' back in the day. Loved him as a person but hated his capitalist proclivities.....
There are many obvious problems - hypocrites and liars in positions of wealth and power being just one, as you rightly point out and are rightly angered by. The question is.. what are the solutions? Time is short for pointing fingers of blame.
Are you a luthier too? It's a wonderful craft, but doesn't sit well with capitalist proclivities. Nobody ever went into guitar making to get rich quick - even Mr Larivee, I'm sure.
No, not a Luthier, but this Gibson (my 2nd oldest possession) did go flying off of John's buffer one Saturday morning in 87. John comes running over and laughs and sees no damage done and declares them very well built fucking guitars! :)
Um, no, on C.C.: I've given up hope on this issue. If action and rhetoric have to be congruent to mean anything then the only logical conclusion is that this topic is a money making hoax!
Sorry, I know you won't accept such a view....
