21st Century Schizoid Men

more at http://www.theuptake.org Even immediate family members often describe the SCHIZOID as “disconnected”, "robots", or "machines". But the schizoid is not depressed, merely indifferent. As such, borderline schizoid personalities thrive in a culture that celebrates the self above the group, is charged with masochism, and thrive in what Eisenhower called the “military-industrial-academic complex.” Reference- “America is in Need of a Moral Bailout”- http://www.truthdig.com/report/item/20090323_america_is_in_need_of_a_moral_ba...

I think he was referring to this quote, from Einstein

We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.

Essentially, saying much the same thing.

That was Michael Giles on drums on their first album.

@brittonvs 'the greatest tragedy' - are you insane? I think so. I can't stand personalities the like one above, which is where I agree with you.

Perhaps the greatest tragedy of our economic woes, can be seen on Youtube, where unemployed narsssists like yourself become purported experts of economics, political theory, and "humor". Unfortunately, the only keen intution you seem to have developed is conspiracy theorizing.

Perhaps you should put a disclaimer on your videos like : Caution, the following blabber was inspired by paranoia, idiosyncatic thinking, and igorance attained without academic verification.

Gorillaz "Kids with Guns": It's all Desire.

It all comes down to what you want. Have you got it? Or, How do you get it?

Few people continue to the Third: What are all the consequences?

Conquer your desire, and think ahead.

Plan your life, don't be engulfed in it. (Or, are you still looking at that woman in red: the matrix)

[CatFacedKillers]

To bad doing the same thing over and over will often yield different results.

[PaulWykel]

it's pronounced "skee-zoid'

[AndrewLLFrazier]

you misquoted Einstien, it's actually the definition of insanity not stupiity, to do the same thing over and over expecting a different results.

[Frumibandersnatch]

court of the chrimsen king!! I talk to the wind my words are all carried away.

[Libellebr]

Hey look at me, I want to be cool.

[Fersomling]

Hey! People voted for Obama to get the boys out of Iraq and Afghanistan. Why are they still there?

The USA does not have unlimited manpower and the NATO allies are understandably unwilling to send their sons to their deaths.

Afghans will fight any foreigner on their land. It's what their entire history teaches us.

How many more of our precious young men must be blowed up before you couch potatoes wake up?! Just because a suit waves a flag doesn't make him right. THINK!

[freetothinkify]

you confuse schizoid with sociopath and your report is vague and unsettling. You sense logic, yet you don't follow through to any real conclusions as is evident by the flow of events since your report. Tisk.
