The Hub Radio Prep Vault - Humans Right? Nuking Your Inner Narciss, Nark or Nihilist!

Originally discussed on April 20th, 2006

When you think of human rights, what is it that makes people feel like they’re rights are being trampled on?

How do those rights change based on the group of people? Is it right to even put people into groups? Does that immediately make someone a bigot, if they identify “groups of people” or schools of thought?

Are there such things as universal human rights or is that utopian? What are some of those? What makes them universal? What should make them universal?

Is it possible for everyone to get universal human rights without someone losing out or being hurt at some level? In other words, is it always possible to be fair?

Who was in the wrong here? What would have been a way to avoid the scuffle? How much of avoiding a scuffle depends on both sides wanting to avoid it? How much of it depends on one side acting like an a%$-hole?

How much of human disrespect is related to misunderstanding or miscommunication?

What’s at the core of racism? Bigotry?

If they won’t take insight, give insight to incite.

How do people control others by hate? How does hate affect logic? How does fear affect logic? How does groupthink affect logic? Why have logic…why not have love?

Where does the rule of law become discrimination? Is it racist to have national pride or identity? Is nationalism insensitive? Does it have to hurt someone to be maintained?

Racism 101: How to Be A Racist and Not Lose Sleep At Night
Consider. In order to live with yourself as a bona-fide racist, you need to master one, if not all three of the following; narcissism, nihilism or just be a narc.

What is your definition of a narcissist? What about a Narc? A Nihilist?

The Basics: A narcissist doesn’t care about others, only himself, a true narc doesn’t know he needs to care because he’s numb to the needs of others and a nihilist sees no reason to care. It’s every man for him self in a world with no intrinsic value. Suffering has no meaning. Survival is your chief goal. A narcissist might know he needs to care but not give a crap while a nihilist may be firing on all 8 cylinders and just see no rational reason to give. And a narc….whaaat?

How do we do these things (disrespect, basically) in our day to day life, even if not intentionally?

How do you arrive at a perfect state of narc, narcis or nihilist? How do you, God forbid, avoid it? Why would you want to? You’d be so much more successful, right? You could do away with caution altogether. After all, that’s what’s holding you back, eh? (Hint of sarcasm in case you missed it and want to key my car right now).
... the 20th century has been characterized by three developments of great political importance: The growth of democracy, the growth of corporate power, and the growth of corporate propaganda as a means of protecting corporate power against democracy.
-Quote by Noam Chomsky

What’s he saying? Do you agree?

Chew On This
Do you see this cycle? Democracy makes world safe, corporations make democracy unsafe (special interests with a goal of what’s profitable over what’s right get in on the game), corporate spin-artists make corporate power safe from democracy (by demonizing and thus silencing democratic government and officials that dare to challenge corporate interests), democracy sleeps with the enemy and makes world unsafe (congratulations democracy, you have a baby! Let’s call him “Economic Totalitarianism” and dang if he don’t wet his pants every 5 minutes). Finally, civil freedom fighters come along and demand democratic government over special interests and equal representation in the law. The fight strong-arms democracy back into spanking the “little brat” before he grows into a bully and takes over the playground.

So how do you maintain or restore civility and human rights?
