Thank you Raul.  I recognoze this honest man who is courageous and confident enough to speak such truths to the dupes of Nature.

The first time I heard this man speak was in this short clip:



I wonder if it is our Holden's Fate to become the "Fernando Vallejo" of India.   No one would listen to me here.  There isn't much intellectual honesty to be found in the USA.  The common knee-jerk response to those who hold to such "depressingly realistic" opinions is to suggest that we kill ourselves.   They just don't get it. 

One can't even really speak this way to family members.  Imagine if I told this to a neice who was considering bringing life into this world.   I would be attacked.

This Fernando Vallejo has courage and is not afraid to be hated by those he shares his message with.

Hentrich,

Thank you for your response. Fernando Vallejo has courage to say deep truths. Most cannot do that. Of course he has the advantage of being a well-known author and filmmaker.
Yes, it is true,as you say, that one can´t even really speak this way to family members. They would not understand it. Never probably.

Holden becoming India´s Fernando Vallejo? Well, Holden knows he will be punished for uttering these truths publicly. They will treat him as a criminal or as someone who does not deserve to live.

I have problems with my CPU for googling. Ever heard of Tall Poppy Syndrome?

As always drive carefully and keep studying.
