It begins

I had to create this because I was thinking things and had to get them down in a non-comment format on other peoples' blogs and shit. Basically I will be just saying things that come to me...like everybody else the blogging world. I need to figure out how to put a quote at the beginning of my blog and shit.

I originally wanted to title this "China and Africa" because those are the two places where humanity will fail and has failed, and I think it is important to think about that. But, I chose "Papshmeredou" as my title. Papshmere is me, originally adopted from the "naked gun" movies, though eventually learned the spelling should be "papshmir", and "dou", which is the romanization of the japanese for "way". Loosley translated as "the way of papshmere". This is not meant to say my way is the best, but to emphasize that we each have our own way, but there still is a way universal to all...I semi-dislike the name already.

The second thing is reading about base closures and how people try to make it into a political thing instead of an economical and security thing. I am an economist by study, but not now by trade, and I look at things in that manner...mainly because by doing that you can eliminate the political and bullshit. Second, secuirty studies are bullshit. They all depend on creating a threat in the mind and turning it into a reality. There is no connection to sociologically eliminating it from a non-"blowing up" perspective. For example, "china=bad. We buy much from china. Let's 1.) engage china and build factories 2.) build defences against the chinese military that we are funding. " There is no response on the demand side, or on the "we are one world side". It is about energy and americans getting their cheap stuff at retail outlets. I would say wal-mart, but it is impossible to not but most goods that aren't made in china (hardware).

The part about Africa is best easily exemplified in the movie "Hotel Rwanda". I knew about that shit long before the movie and understood africa, from my perspective, which I will explain late, many years ago. But, the movie does an excellent job of portraying how a continent can be abandoned and how people can turn into animals. Conflicts in eatern europe and shit show this as well. Everywhere you can see, in the past and present, how humanity turns its back on itself. I am not singling out two areas to say they are evil, but as lakes reflect the moon, they reflect the world's wrongs.

Everything is too complicated for one post, so I will continue on. Hopefully I will figure out the setting and such so it can look good and provide thoughts.

later...from papshmere, of course
