Is it me, or our commercials becoming more juvenile*?
The higher the stakes; the more the rules get bent. People don’t want to lose; and when they can do something about it… Many people at the bottom lose, not because they’re good natured, good sports, but because they feel powerless over the eventuality. People at the top often feel they are not -provided they are willing to cross certain lines. And that’s the way humanity largely works. Even good people, if the stakes are high enough, will cross that line. The higher the stakes come the more good people will cross over unfortunately. The closer to home the stakesβ¦ Seems rather bleak from this perspective what do you say? Fortunately, there is a pot O’ gold at the end of that rather greyscaled rainbow.
More thoughts from the movie “Hidden Agenda” with Brian Cox and Frances McDormand. When you’re caught up in a shit storm involving highly intelligent, highly resourceful individuals, often times in order to bring them to their knees you have to be willing to put your own head in the chopping block. And even then, there is no guarantee so long as:
1)They have something significant to bargain with, manipulate, coerce…
2)Whoever is above, or equal to them is willing, has no choice but to “play -ball”. And that’s the π we live in!*** π€·πΏββοΈπ€·πΎββοΈπ€·π»ββοΈπ€·π½ββοΈ
*Juvenile – of, pertaining to, characteristic of, or suitable or intended for young persons: juvenile books. young; youthful: juvenile years. immature; childish; infantile: His juvenile tantrums are not in keeping with his age.**
**However, I was thinking more in terms of physical; materialistic; increasingly void of higher principles; values; morals!
*** So when you run across a human being who is unbending in their principles under any and all conditions, any and all circumstances, let it suffice to say you are observing a true wonder, perhaps, if I may π€ a freak of [human] nature!
