But it's transparent..

[–]Danez 38 points39 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I think that a more accurate classification would be "opaque". You see, while nationalistic feelings might protect you from the sunburn of the rays objective perspective (because remaining in objectivity would ostracize you from your society, especially in the united states), they also dim the rays of "truth". The artist is obviously making an allusion to the sun being the creator of truth, and national boundaries obscuring that truth, or at least allowing people to check out girls' asses without being noticed.

[–]BestPseudonym 13 points14 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Opaque isn't the correct word either. That's the direct opposite of transparent, meaning it'd be like a wall. You can't see through it unless you have super x-ray vision powers. A more accurate classification would be "translucent."

[–]moonbeamwhim 53 points54 points ago

So what you're saying is that I should vote for Ron Paul. Excellent.

[–]Danez 7 points8 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yes, in some ways. While voting for a libertarian platform may allow for the figurative "veil" of federal government to be lifted, it is possible that our society would fall into absolute chaos in the free market system. Glasses that are shaped like dollar signs already articulate my argument eloquently, I'm sure that you understand.

[–]moonbeamwhim 11 points12 points ago

Well he ran for president as a libertarian 34 years ago which is good enough for me.

I Wish this movie would get more respect from the SF community. I'd love to see a good remake.

[–]aaomalley 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I wish more people would get this. Paul's brand of neo-capitalist/Randian/Austrian school politics which has somehow taken on the able of "libertarian" in the US could not be further from the actual ideology of libertarians which is, when applied correctly, a subset of socialism.

Much the same way the US somehow tabled leninism as socialism and the Soviet Union as socialist, despite the Soviet Union actually being closer to fascism (though Lenin was at one time a true marxist-socialist he abandoned those principles quickly after the revolution when he began attacking the workers unions and implementing policies indistinguishable from the Tsars.)

But America also calls the democrats liberal and the republicans conservative, which is laughable compared with academic definitions of the terms or with any other countries political definitions.

To be honest I've always viewed him as being a theocrat with a thin layer of capitalism used to white wash it all.

Those aren't 'The North America' sunglasses, those are the [mainland] United States of America sunglasses. Canada, Mexico and a bunch of other countries are members of North America too. It bothers me when people consider the whole continent as just the one country. It would be like saying that all of Asia is China, all of Africa is the Ethiopia, all of South America is Brazil and all of Europe is Germany.

Him "fixing" the picture was to take an entirely completely picture and use the same title. Therefore the bot did its job at finding the original.
