qu1j0t3 | "What I talk about are the liberal intellectuals, the ones who portray themselves and perceive themselves as challenging power, as courageous, as standing up for truth and justice. They are basically the guardians of the faith. They set the limits. They tell us how far we can go. They say, ‘Look how courageous I am.’ But do not go one millimeter beyond that. At least for the educated | Oct 09 16:02 |
qu1j0t3 | sectors, they are the most dangerous in supporting power.” | Oct 09 16:02 |

qu1j0t3 | " If you read in the newspapers that Iran is defying the international community, ask who is the international community? India is opposed to sanctions. China is opposed to sanctions. Brazil is opposed to sanctions. The Non-Aligned Movement is vigorously opposed to sanctions and has been for years. Who is the international community? It is Washington and anyone who happens to agree with it. | Oct 09 16:04 |
qu1j0t3 | You can figure that out, but you have to do work. It is the same on issue after issue.” | Oct 09 16:04 |
schestowitz | Cuba | Oct 09 16:06 |
schestowitz | Even the US does not agree with its government, which has the same policy in both sides | Oct 09 16:06 |
schestowitz | Politics are a bigger game, though | Oct 09 16:11 |
schestowitz | I find it depressing because as hard as it may be to drive change in IT, you deal with far bigger barrier in politics because more people are already involved thre | Oct 09 16:12 |
schestowitz | The people whom you need to influence in "IT" are maybe 10s of millions | Oct 09 16:12 |
schestowitz | For a specific science maybe a milliob | Oct 09 16:12 |
schestowitz | For one research area hundreds worldwide | Oct 09 16:12 |
schestowitz | For politics hundreds of millions it not up an order if magnitude | Oct 09 16:13 |
schestowitz | In a field of research publishing some papers can help you revoluitionise | Oct 09 16:13 |
schestowitz | In politics, owning 1,000 paper internationally might help in making just some noticeable difference | Oct 09 16:14 |
