Friday Happy Hour Video: Which side are you on?

01.10.2014 by David Murray // Leave a Comment

Nothing like a good argument at happy hour. The point of view expressed in this video, to me, splits modern American citizens about how we are supposed to think the world is working (or not). We should have to declare ourselves Tinkerers, or Topsy-Turvy-ites.

Most of the time, do you agree with Zinn's supposition that the world is topsy-turvy?

Or do you or not?

(I do. And I honor that supposition when I have the courage to. But as an American with a dollar in my pocket and roof to pay for and a child whom I not only want to protect, but take to Australia on vacation someday! … well when you're on the topsy, how can they expect you to invite the turvy to stay indefinitely and eat whatever they want?)
