CRITICAL THINKING
Coffee Cups may replace bumper stickers as the source point for pithy statements | Mark Brady at Alchemy/Fouroboros made note of a new Starbucks campaign designed to foster thought |
Wouldn't you know it, already "...some conservatives are angered by opinionated quotes that Starbucks puts on its cups..." | Honestly, what is it about these guys? | Seems they'll never be satisfied until there's only one voice droning out in monotone the same vacant statements, by they on (a) tax reduction, (b) godliness, (c) "family values", (d) the liberal media conspiracy or (e) whetehr or not one ought use Charmin' instead of Scott toilet tissue [hint: check which corporation gave the most to Republican War Chest, that's whose product you buy]
Not only does this once again raise the question about whether or not these guys have too much free time, but it poses a more serious one | Namely, what's wrong with being forced to get one's synapses firing ? |
I've long believed that part of the problem our society faces these days is not GOP vs DEMS or "liberal" vs "conservative", but rather the absence of critical thinking in exchange for bumper sticker logic | Now on coffee cups everywhere | ¶ 10:13
