Why and how
Why and how what?
You're too vague.
well, who cares, my name isn't important... my point is to ask WHY.
Why no one cares about your name?
Why your name isn't important?
can you imagine the founding fathers as people
Yes. But no matter what it's my imagination and not reality.
Reality is something immediate I react to internally without much control, and then with limited choice externally, with boundaries being more external.
Imagination is purely internal, something I can pick and choose to react to (and how I want to react to it) without boundaries except personal (even unrelated) experience I apply to myself.
I'm asking why.
Still not sure what consequence you are asking the precedent causes of.
Anyone wanna prove me. Wrong?
Prove what wrong?
You mostly offer personal emotional experience and personal bias:
"isn't too much of a surprise!... MORE SHOCKING... enjoyed..."
How can anyone prove what you say are your emotional reactions as wrong.
How can anyone prove how someone "really" felt that has been dead for a very long time.
dig somthing. exonerating the muthaf*ckin' southern democratic republican!
I can't prove he didn't have sex with his mother.
I can't prove anyone on this website didn't have sex with their mother.
You mentioned imagining people as people, beyond their "fact or actions in your history books, but people" and in doing that it's extremely relevant to look at the context of what influenced them as well as their morality and values as they conform to their own society, culture, and personal groups.
It's not for me to exonerate "the muthaf*ckin" in any way. That was for his peers to do. And they're all dead.
Death and time exonerates or absolves more effectively by influencing relevancy than I ever could.
recognizing their actual complexity is too much intellectual work,,,,
Only in the sense there isn't that much of a payoff for doing the "intellectual work."
IMO most people "could," but why should they?
It's just as likely they recognize (on some level) the actual complexity and realize it's not worth recreating or focusing on because it doesn't or won't really affect their life in any meaningful way more so than applying that "intellectual work" to alternative foci.
Seems basic nerd/jock dilemma.
"Philistine! Don't you know the anterior starboard nacelle on the U.S.S. constellation has 2! outward opening 3ft x 4ft hatches which are tribble compatible? Is it too much intellectual work for you to realize that Roddenberry was a complex individual putting so much thought into creating the reality of his universe?!?!"
"Yeah, whatever nerd." Meanwhile the jock has to navigate their own complex system of maintaining social position, hierarchy relevancy, by focusing on athletic accomplishment, style, fashion, their emotional bonds within their peer groups, as well as behave according to the dictates of their primary social group led by parents, being mindful of growth and development away from them, and any dissonance between what everyone wants and expects to keep the status quo.
"Stupid jocks labeling people! They're intellectually lazy!"
there is a tendency to simplify humans into either heroes or villains,
There is a tendency to simplify relationships and seek out emotional cues based on group expectations.
Is something relevant, should they care, to what degree, positive, or negative, fight or flight, and what are the consequences, expectations, for going one way or the other.
