“They saw their injured country's woe;
The flaming town, the wasted field;
Then rushed to meet the insulting foe;
They took the spear, - but left the shield.”
―Philip Freneau
.
And by a prudent flight and cunning save A life which valour could not, from the grave. A better buckler I can soon regain, But who can get another life again?

I will not be doing it as previously -- with refering to facts and logical conclusions from em. You will not believe...
Will give only general overview -- what actual type of government was USSR... despite boasting about "building communism".
In reality -- it was just State Monopolistic Capitalism. Of tyoe you can see on the West utself -- inside biggest corporations. Ones, where emploees enter... to work through their lifetime. Because of benefits... but same time because of imposed sanctions onto that who'd decide to leave.
Heavy foot of ideology. Dependence on uncontrollable power of CEO.
Don't disagree. Your hearing a lot more about technofeudalism from Silicon Valley and network states. Curtis Yarvin's President CEO. Thiel's shopping for countries to try it out in. Galt's Gulch.
In Plato's dialogue Gorgias, cookery and medicine are compared to illustrate the difference between a true, rational craft (techne) and a flattery or a mere knack (empeiria) that only chases short-term pleasure.
The Core Definitions
Medicine is a true art because it studies the real nature (or phusis) of the body, understands what is genuinely good for health, and aims at long-term well-being even when the treatment is unpleasant.
Cookery is merely a routine or knack aimed at producing instant gratification and sensory pleasure, paying no regard to what is actually good or healthy.
The Mask of Disguise
Cookery "puts on the mask of medicine".
It pretends to know what foods are best for the body, tricking the senses by making things taste good.
The Grand Analogy
Plato uses this physical relationship to map out human psychology and politics:
Medicine is to the body what justice is to the soul (true care and health).
Cookery is to the body what rhetoric is to the soul (empty flattery that tells people what they want to hear rather than what is good for them)

You really are cretin, Lessy.
I, as inhabitant of post-soviet... it all just happened before my very eyes.
That is the mere fact.
To be dishonest about FACTS -- that is realm of such a cretins as you are, Lessy
Unable to see reality, even after falling into that smelly slimy brown substance... with your face.
DEMN-cretins like you. Rising. Taking same pose. Saying "Umm, chocolate!"... while beholding brown droplets. And smell, and foul taste... oh, that's because nasty MAGAts are around... that must be from em.
Facts are subjective. Molded by the egos interpretation of the facts based on the individuals perception, conditioning, and the degree to which their beliefs have been reified, cretin anonymous.
And you can call me "cretin" as many times as you like, cretin.
Because cretinism defined not on who call someone and how many times "cretin, cretin, cretin" ))) but depend on demonstrating destinctive traits of being cretin. ;-p
And you just did it.
But, you will not understand it, you -- silly cretinic monkey. ;-p
And will demonstrate that non-understanding, with continued tryes to throw verbal feces. ))))
You really think that I was beting on that that you'd understand? Ah, cretin??? Will understand all chasm of your mental deficiency. And will start to feel shame??? )))
Of course not. ;-p
Because, you are cretin. For you it is same impossible as for monkey to snatch the Moon from the sky. :-))))
So, you just showed yourself cretin yet one time, cretin.
And confirmed my assessment of your miserably brain conditions.
But... you will not this my explanatiin too...
...but, continue-continue, cretinic little monkey. ))((

To round up previous discussion.

Looks similar, isn't it?
Like in Roman Church for example.
Well. It was in accordance with *sole* practical recepie Marx leaved... even though, he didn't meaned as example.
Wow! A moment of honesty? In full agreement with your above comment.
The one above your last comment specifically.
Don't disagree. Your hearing a lot more about technofeudalism from Silicon Valley and network states. Curtis Yarvin's President CEO. Thiel's shopping for countries to try it out in. Galt's Gulch.
Bad analogy? Maybe not...

Yawn...
too outdated.
That Plato... did not know about "vitamins"
That are in cooking only.
And without which -- no medicine can save you.
Means...
good meal -- is much more healthy and much more important, than any medicines.
Without medicines -- you can survive through all lifetime.
While tasty meal... you need it every day. And better at least three time per day.
Facts are subjective. Molded by the egos interpretation of the facts based on the individuals perception, conditioning, and the degree to which their beliefs have been reified, cretin anonymous.
//Facts are subjective
To anyone who dare to spout such bullshit -- I do propose simple experiment -- take big boulder, throw it up and then catch with your dumb head.
If you not, why not? That'll be "subjective". Means no harm, no pain. ;-p
))())
But... even dumbest of dumb -- do not agree.
Because... there's instinct of survival, that prevents from doing something so ibviously stupid and dangerous.
But... if denger is not that obvious. Needs brains to understand.
There's no end of such idiots.
You can find em in the Internet -- in the list if Darwin's prize list. ;-p
But thete... onky most soectacukar exempkars.
Oh.

Ohhh, so cutting! LMFAO!!
But if you feel better I'm happy for whittle you.
