I notice the pressure on Facebook to remove offending Nazi imagery, but I think it is best to have the truth out there. I know Facebook is only a For Profit set up and so there may be reasons for it to exclude this or that to appease its advertisers, but really, Nazism is as alive and well as it always has been, as are the other faults in Humanity, per se. I would suggest they just let it be. You can't hate something if no one tells you about it. There can be very good reasons for some of our hatreds and we don't learn more by knowing less about ourselves.
The most amazing thing I found in my Faceless Bureaucratic years in Queensland Health was a Brisbane based Government set-up called SNAG, and, later, SNAFU. It was a big building with about 80 AO7/8 public servants whose job was to receive, stall, and delay the implementation of Federal Funds for urgent health services until the funds were properly allocated to appropriate political causes of most need to the State government at the time. These folk saw themselves as very good public servants. Ah, the good old days...I guess that has all changed now?
I knew a health bureaucrat in Brisbane in 2002 who made some comment that was unacceptable to the group and so no one included him in meetings for 2 years. For 2 years he had nothing to do, and because of the stress, he went on paid Stress Leave for 2 years. True. AO8/ $130k a year. Poor devil...and all for 'speaking out'.Tsk tsk.
Bureaucrap & Bureaucrasia:I want to use the word 'bureaucrasia' more often, because I invented it. I also invented 'bureaucrap'. I want to see these words in dictionaries as time goes by. So please use them: Bureaucrap: The Information Supplied from Government Agencies". Bureaucrasia: "The mental illness that feeds the notion that decisions need to be made by sub-committees before issues are discussed by normal people." Please use these new words as often as you can. You can, if you wish, note me as the Source. as I did invent them. Thank you.
My view of what happened with Malaysian Flight 370 is that it was brought down by laser-rocket fire in the South China Sea by US forces gathered there, and still there, and was due to human error. This is the most contested, viewed and studied area of just about the whole world and the US Navy and Air Force is there in Bulk to continually ping and test and find faults in China's Air and Sea defences, all the time. That's just what they do there, all the time. It is understandable that human error caused the incident...but it was a human error that the US could not take responsibility for. I believe the Chinese know this...thus the ongoing military build up of the islands off China to secure both sea and air travel for the future. If the US could do that by accident, what could they do on purpose? Mind you, for the grieving families, this reality probably isn't acceptable...thus the manufacture of something impossible is better for them? After all, most of the passengers were 'Only Chinese'.
The Media and ADD One of the most remarkable examples of the 'established world media' having Attention Deficit Disorder involves the missing flight MH370...remember that? In the most highly radar-ed and studied and militarily high-tech rich area on Earth...the big plane just...vanished and, the Malaysian Government announced that it went the other way, totally, for no reason, to the only place in the world oceans where no one was looking at the time. The information came straight from the Malaysian PM's office. Within a month Obama landed in Malaysia and gave Malaysia a really good trade and military package that no one was expecting. Then the Saudi Royal Family gave the Malaysian Prime Minister a 'personal gift' of $800 million...just because they liked him. I wonder how often they do that? Anyway, all this information came out yet not one media company investigated this rare phenomenon or joined any of the dots. ADD?
