Jacque Fresco Eindhoven

De Amerikaanse ontwerper, auteur en uitvinder Jacque Fresco (95) is bezig aan een heuse wereldtoernee. Hij doet dertig landen aan in zeven maanden tijd om zijn gedachten over een betere wereldeconomie onder de aandacht te brengen. „We gaan hard bergafwaarts, omdat er iets essentieel scheef zit."

„Ons denken is niet meegegaan in de tijd. Eigenlijk denken we nog als in de middeleeuwen, met de standaarden van toen. We slaan elkaar bijvoorbeeld de koppen in om natuurlijke hulpstoffen te veroveren, alleen voor ons eigen, hebzuchtig belang. Dat noem ik dom, middeleeuws. Maar helaas, we kunnen niet anders, denk ik."

Fresco geeft zaterdag 26 juni om 14.00 uur een lezing op het Lichtplein achter het ICSE-gebouw (Lichttoren) in Eindhoven. Een expositie rond Fresco in het ICSE is te zien op 26 en 27 juni, daarna op werkdagen tot 30 juli.

More people need to see this. But... it's difficult to teach people anything when they're asleep

@blackpanther6389 The Russian Revolution and the working class internationally failed in their efforts. In the 1920's counter-revolution set in in main part due to the isolation of revolution in Russia. Workers and Party leaders, old Communists etc all knew the revolution had to be global in scale or it would fail. The Communist Party's around the world became assets of the Russian state - something communist revolution does away with. He did not experience an organ of the exploited class.

@ButherLi55ett I would call free access to goods and service generous, humane. What do you mean Jacques experiences are of a Stalinist Communist Party after the Russian counter-revolution?

[ButherLi55ett]

..but free access to goods and services IS communism. What Jacque and co refer to all the time as Communism was Stalinism, an authoritarian form if you like of state capitalism a mode of production that Marx criticised and even ridiculed in the 19th century. Just read what he and Engles wrote. Even Jacque's personal experiences are of a Stalinist Communist Party after the Russian counter-revolution and the defeat of the international working class, then the horror of WW2.

I think It's hard for people to know the difference between a person who is trying educate you rather than someone who is trying to sell you something. Jacque Fresco is clearly educating and expecting nothing in return except your gain of factual information and he is the only person I've seen who is focusing on a solution for the worst problems. Most business men can even find a market in an Anti-marketing speech but thats what a monetary system supports, greed and contradiction.
