The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

?  Cicero, if that's all you got from the video, then it was a total waste of your time and our bandwidth.

Sorry I couldn't join you in being in awe of the environmentalist, globalist, wing nut activist Jeremy Rifkin propaganda. It wasn't a waste of my time, I appreciate when you put out liberal technocrat propaganda pieces.  When the word "empathy" begins to be used in a political narrative to push the socialist and globalist agenda, I will know who helped develop the lefts next socialist campaign.

“... a cleverly constructed tract of anti-intellectual propaganda masquerading as scholarship. Among books promoted as serious intellectual statements by important thinkers, I don’t think I have ever read a shoddier work.”
— The late paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould on Jeremy Rifkin’s Algeny, in the January 1985 issue of Discover

“Mr. Rifkin’s scientific acumen is nil, and his scare scenarios are pure fantasy.”
— Dr. Henry I. Miller, former chief biotechnology policy coordinator for the Food and Drug Administration, in The New York Times

“In the America Rifkin envisions, beef cattle and capitalism are banished, the buffalo roam, the deer and the antelope play and Americans eat peas and corn bread in poverty but in solidarity with their Third World brothers.”
— From a Houston Chronicle book review of Foundation on Economic Trends founder Jeremy Rifkin's Beyond Beef

The Foundation on Economic Trends (FOET)

is a platform for the neo-Luddite intellectual guru Jeremy Rifkin. Lacking scientific or technical background, Rifkin is a peddler of half-truths, suppositions, scare stories, and outright superstition. His real expertise is in organizing and inspiring uninformed activists, who take his science fiction as the gospel truth.
While most people think about food in terms of nutrition and taste, Rifkin proclaims that "eating is the ultimate political act" -- and aims to impose his politics on the dinner plate. His primary targets are modern farming techniques, meat production and consumption, and all forms of genetic technology. Rifkin warns that biotechnology threatens "a form of annihilation every bit as deadly as nuclear holocaust" and calls beef a "new form of human evil."

Unfortunately, Rifkin's influence stretches far beyond the environmental and animal-rights activists who happily follow wherever he leads. He is a charmer, and a gifted rhetorician. Rifkin claims, accurately, to be an "advisor to heads of state and government officials around the world." He testifies before Congress, generates significant press coverage for himself and his campaigns, and has been named by National Journal magazine as one of the 150 Americans with the greatest influence over federal government policy.

The Unforgiven Lyrics Performed by Metallica
Review The Song (119) Send "The Unforgiven" Ringtone to your Cell
New blood joins this earth
And quickly he's subdued
Through constant pained disgrace
The young boy learns their rules

With time the child draws in
This whipping boy done wrong
Deprived of all his thoughts
The young man struggles on and on he's known
A vow unto his own
That never from this day
His will they'll take away-eay

Chorus:

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Won't see what might have been
What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN

They dedicate their lives
To RUNNING all of his
He tries to please THEM all
This bitter man he is
Throughout his life the same
He's battled constantly
This fight he cannot win
A tired man they see no longer cares
The old man then prepares
To die regretfully
That old man here is me

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Won't see what might have been
What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN

(instrumental)

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Won't see what might have been
What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN

whoa, whoa

Never Free
Never Me
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN
You labeled me
I'll label you
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN
Never Free
Never Me
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN
You labeled me
I'll label you
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN
Never Free
Never Me
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
