Things I don't understand : Today the business page 6 in the New-York Times International, October 31, 2018.
First
we have an article « No answers on social media » about
the problems of social networks on the internet to confine the hate
that some are happy to spread widely, thanks to the new
technologies.. well horryfing people still exists and there were no
reason they didn't use new technology … but is that a business
issue ? Seems to me it's more a social problem, an eternal moral
debate of human communauties : what do we do with the Bad ?
Who is Bad ? What is Bad ? What's the fuck of those people
killing others , blabla. Do we need a langague police ? Is
langage the beast ? Or some peculiar use of langage the beast ?
Is the beast bad ? Do we need a langage policy ? Blabla...
Well, i'm sorry but where the business issue there ? Common
Decency could answer George ORWELL after the World War II.
Then
an article titled « Being rich doesn't mean you're great at
everything. ». Ok, this is not a book educating little children
to the human society, no, it's in the business page of the New-York
Times international in the beginning of the XXI e century. Well, i
know psychological stuff had become a big business for some, but
we're really there on the ground of psychological perception of the
humans. Is Marie-Antoinette a good actress ? François Ier a
good poet ? La Ciciollina a good politic representative ?
Pamela Anderson a good ecological lobbyist ? blablabla , …
Didn't Martin LUTHER affirm the same idea by saying « it's not
because you're able to pay for « an indulgence » proposed
in the store of the corrupted Vatican that you're able to reach
heaven and that your soul is safe » ? Well, When was
that ? XVe century ? Is this really a business issue ?
Inside the article we've got La PALISSE information like « it
seems fair to say that if money is portable form one field to
another, talent often is not », thank you for that information
that each human can experience by itself , or like « Running a
tech start-up that makes billions doesn't make one a virtuoso who can
disrupt all industries » well, of course but introducing the
new and very high tech in an industrial process disrupt it and so
that industry, it's compulsary, just think of it by yourself even
three seconds if you can... But in that article I found also really
horryfing things like « a hedge fund manager who buys a
newspaper has the power to decide what constitutes news » euh..
never heard about journalism as a profesionnal work with code and
rules, deontology something like that ?... or horryfing things
like« the richs have been patrons of the arts and sciences for
centuries » well they give money but they can't be boss of
those things, this is a very kistch idea of arts and a poor knowledge
about science … Well, we know that psychology could be the servant
of rich people, no doubt about that, there are no science, nor art
there ...
And
at least, in that page 6 of the Interntional New-York Times supposed
talking us about Business stuff an article titled « New China
Export : meaningless stuff » who is not dealing with the
invasion of stupid breloques and gadgets made in china into the
western societies shops but about an internet application that
proposes stupid short videos with an agressive and intrusive
marketing. Very interesting, really, meaningless stuff .. but i can't
find no real informations about the business, chiffre d'affaire,
number of employees, bénéfice net, taxes paid, blabla, not a clue,
no, just perception and psychology. We notice the author of that
article didn't talk about a chinese governement censorship but evoque
a chinese governement dislike of not-very-wholesome stuff … Well,
do we need of langage police ? Do we need a langage policy ?
Common Decency could answer ORWELL at the end of World War II (XXe
century)
