to speak up what are you afraid of

to afford mistakes
to be afraid of mistakes is to consider whether one can afford them
that I endlessly don’t know what I am until I find out and what am I
until I understand to try out to find out

”I realised that half the time, this is because the very use of the word ‘algorithm’, the weight of supposed meaning we place behind it by throwing it into these contexts, removes the humans that created them entirely.” http://ndkane.com/2015/02/03/notes-rants-from-berlin-on-art-and-engineering/

Above criticism.

What kind of people take themselves seriously to the extent they cannot be criticized? If said against or ridiculed they totally flip. Their world that cannot be broken gets a crack. It is a crack on an image. Begin to feel hurt, begin to grow hate. At the moment there seems to be this kind of vast group of people who do not see themselves nor their doings as flawed in any way but as perfect in what they do, want they choose to commit, what they are everybody should be, say and take on. We are advised daily. They are invaders who are righteous. For what they have found is the side of the good and something to stand for, work for, status to pass down crumbles of a cake. It is an ultimate good and goodness and it has religious aspects in it tightly woven. World where they search for happiness hang on it tightly. What kind of people are convinced they have found perfection and they share a picture of it to pose in perfection? What kind of perfection are we talking about? Dimensions are really awkward in here. What is perfect in human life may be a matter of defining. You want what I have got?

(Well you cannot have it because I don’t like you and I enjoy you cannot have it. It, this. We put so much emphasis on liking or not. I don’t like her. Oh I like you very much.)

It is about perspective, about size, what can be said and what not and what is right. All the rules and what is right, how do we find it other than by listening and giving opportunities. Whose right rolls over and whose privilege is at stake. Privileges that are protected by placing oneself above criticism. How does one place oneself above in a way that person and what he stands for cannot be touched, cannot be affected, changed, compromised, pulled down, ridiculed. Above is something where one’s name and smile are visible (good, buddy-like, friendly, stylish, photogenic, it is good believe me, because there is no other way). One’s speech and act are there to state the position of untouchable, unreachable, the power of what is gained will always be there for that person.
