thanks cornflake... i can be philosophical about henry ford

Post Reply New Topic

lets all be esoteric knowing that hitler and his third reich gave eugenics a very bad name
and that poor ole doctor hans asperger was trying to write an authoritative cutting edge
paper that keeps four or five lil kids from being slaughtered in some horrid death camp by
highlighting perceptiveness & unique abilities. mitt romney's pappy once ran a car company.
our recent election actually did have two of the better standard bearers. ole henry ford had
his workers keeping up to his tempo, his way of doing things, and he ran his own company
town like a tight ship. some workers were allowed to reproduce and thrive. others were fired.

Is this thread about Hitler, eugenics, Hans Asperger, Mitt Romney, or Henry Ford? Or Cornflake?

my posting perhaps is more understandable if you look at
the eugenics thread that got moved here. i had to make a
remark about henry ford's theories on eugenics. he assumed
that most of the workers he fired would not find jobs elsewhere.
my mother's aunt's husband worked for general motors in the 60s.
i think the poster here who created the thread about the shooter
in connecticut was perhaps tangental in trying to read eugenics
into what is a tragic and perplexing incident. i can't talk eugenics
without going into the 12 million helpless people slaughtered in
the death camps, and i think hans saperger was clinically correct
and not a bad person. he may have tried to diagnose his own
complex state of being and found that he lacked total objectivity.
in the typical nuclear family unit many children are not planned
despite access to "the pill" since the early 1960s in modern america.

Only on Fridays when the sun shines and there is an easterly wind... Erm... what was the question again?

were ADMIN to move my stuff in now, it would get even more confused.
i'd even do up a few links to the late great Mario Lanza but for the
fact that the openning posting was not really at all about adam lanza
and his actions. i think "henry" wanted to inject eugenics ideas into
that OTHER forum that once had the moved thread in it happily... so
the move is at least getting HIS thread a few replies. the hot threads
in the current events forum are cooling down as things are debated!

I'm confused, what's going on here?

squirrels!

Henry Ford, American Motors and General Motors...
or even Chrysler during the Great Depression. Or
even indirect thoughts about the 1950s and society
in general. want to talk about TARP + GM? coooool!! !
Keynes and Hayek, be my guest! global warming? indeed!

I'm just wondering what Cornflake has to do with any of this... I have my doubts as to whether Cornflake possesses any kind of sense of humor and was mildly annoyed when he deleted one of my posts. Other than that, Cornflake seems ok by me.

What does a deleted post about animals mating have to do with Henry Ford?

I seem to have wandered into the Twilight Zone, but I'll attempt to inject some of the real world into it anyway...

I'm assuming bLueTaEl0nENiGMA is referring to a thread created by henry14488 in the News and Current Events forum which duplicated one he'd created earlier in The Haven.
As duplicated threads are not permitted by WP's rules, and since the one in News and Current Events had received no replies, and as the one in The Haven was misplaced by being there - I removed the duplicate in News and Current Events and then moved the thread from The Haven to News and Current Events.
For whatever it's worth, here it is: http://www.wrongplanet.net/postt218208.html

I moved the other thread about eugenics from henry14488 to PPR because it was clearly PPR material.


AngelRho, it will doubtless surprise you to know that I have an extremely rich and varied sense of humour as many people who don't pre-judge have already discovered.
What it doesn't extend to is subjects such as your posting an off-topic, lengthy and gruesome video of a horse fornicating an ass and after I'd told you it had been removed, and why, your response was "Understood. Thanks for letting me know."
Other than that - thanks for your somewhat qualified approval. Umm, I think.

Bow before my toasted and crunchy goodness...
Mwahahaha!
