Valid criticism

I state an assumption and instead of explaining it I go on to describe the primal structure of an organization in conflict with this stement. More than my apostrophes are wrong.

Goons are a media machine producing advertising. Advertising creates demand but for what? To join a subscription base? Thats fine in the real money world. Were here, what creates demand here, I'm assuming it is war.

Here we need to produce carnage not pulp. We don't need dramatic conflict, we need cataclysm.

Corporations like mankind are limited. They can rise no higher than what they worship. Mankind rises to meet and become his god(s). If a battle were fought on Olympus between a god of carnage, a god of money, and a god of drama and a god of peace, who would win or like seasons would they wrestle with themselves perpetually? Who can say for sure but drama creates money,

Where would we be without war and advertising? Its what makes the world go around. Like advertising needs destruction to create demand,conflict needs war to create peace.

In EVE we see these symbols being played out as goals.The god of money colludes with the god of peace and creates the care bear. Drama flirts with carnage and becomes Goons. But this drama, while it creates money for SA and CCP stagnates our world inside the EVE box. It creates perceived risk that is not the same as real risk.

Our real risk is our risk adjusted return on investment and not just return on investment. We need volatility we need real risk. Carnage is the path to peace and prosperity.

Sorry, do not have enough spare time read all the opening text. I am expecting to die of old age in about 25 years from now and have more important things to do in the meantime.

This is not a signature.

You do not have to apologize for having a life. Even if it is fast food.
