Alas, Criticism Has Always Been

In Historical Fact, All Of History's Despots, Combined, Never Managed To Get Things Done As Well As This Rambunctious, Self-critical Civilization Of Free And Sovereign Citizens, Who Have Finally Broken Free Of Worshipping A Ruling Class And Begun Thinking For Themselves. Democracy Can Seem Frustrating And Messy At Times, But It Delivers.

The Measure Of (mental) Health Is Flexibility (not Comparison To Some 'norm'), The Freedom To Learn From Experience ... To Be Influenced By Reasonable Arguments ... And The Appeal To The Emotions ... And Especially The Freedom To Cease When Sated. The Essence Of Illness Is The Freezing Of Behavior Into Unalterable And Insatiable Patterns.

Beware Of Assumptions That Seem "obvious" In One Decade. They May Become Quaint In The Next.

Cultural Contamination That Is Directed Outward Is Always Seen As ‘enlightenment.'

I Regret Having Been The Bearer Of Ambiguous Tidings.
