Quote:What!? You mean when you're on Aya, Morgan Freeman doesn't show up and start explaining everything that's happening for you? How sad. That's how it's supposed to work, you must be doing it wrong.
Every time he does it, he gets another freckle.
Man, that south park reference just made my day
well played sir, well played.
As far as seeing a black guy when you take aya, yeah thats a bit of an outlandish claim. But to nit pick at her choice of language is a bit of a fools errand. It sounds like while a bit misinformed, the claims she is making about aya are a hell of a lot better than some of the crap I've heard.

In a society in which nearly everybody is dominated by somebody else's mind or by a disembodied mind, it becomes increasingly difficult to learn the truth about the activities of governments and corporations, about the quality or value of products, or about the health of one's own place and economy.
In such a society, also, our private economies will depend less upon the private ownership of real, usable property, and more upon property that is institutional and abstract, beyond individual control, such as money, insurance policies, certificates of deposit, stocks, etc. And as our private economies become more abstract, the mutual, free helps and pleasures of family and community life will be supplanted by a kind of displaced citizenship and by commerce with impersonal and self-interested suppliers...
