On occasion We've heard people deride certain artists. For example, Frank Sinatra was a wannabe Our Thing guy.
Mr. Hoffa was the first (& last?) person in American media history whom Americans recognised better than the President of the United States. That's why he's dead.
These speakers deriding 'unauthentic' artists would often suggest the person, such as Mr. Sinatra, was not authentically gangster. We've always tried to explain, of course he's not a real gangster. If a gangster sang as well as Mr. Sinatra, the mob would kick him out of the organised crime business (is there anyone in the world who prefers the disorganised crime business?), and make him sing full time.
The same might be said of Mr. Ernest Hemingway's guerilla warfare abilities. Sure he might have fought in the Spanish Civil War. He might have been the worst fighter the resistance had. He was one of their better authors.
Apple Inc. hasn't done the worst job monetising my IP. Each computer maker faces their own challenges. Some adhere better to the parameters, and some worse. If We are permitted to monetise Our own IP, the results will not be as allencompassing as some might fear.
Or hope.
The sooner your governments free up Our reins, the sooner Our organisation can try to effect healthy, harmonious leadership. The threat, from Our perspective, is if you free up Our reins, others will use that as an excuse to do more damage than the current oligarchs and politicians.
Based on the difference between the intent of the Founders, versus the actuality, this is the most populist institution in America.
Those others who try to slip in under the guise of 'in all our best interests', will claim that the same rules should apply to them as apply to BrandiQ&I. Traditions, customs, rules and laws must be applied in accordance with the skills of the operator(s). What is a norm for one is not a norm for another. Every evaluation is on a case by case basis. Some might be generalised, classified into categories.
Some norms apply to only one person. The American myth of laws against bills of attainder provides many examples. There are innumerable bills of attainder becoming law in America. One only needs enough money, propaganda, or herd mentality to get the bill passed.
All rules, or laws, never apply to everyone. They shouldn't. There is no law that one can't find at least one good reason, on at least one occasion, to not enforce. Unless there is a nuanced understanding of who is what, and why everyone doesn't get to do what BrandiQ&I are permitted, your societies will be restricted to your current morass.
There will always be a market for others who do a better job of giving consumers what they want. My organisation might make the best products for me. For example, Alphabet Inc. might forever make the best product for AI's target market.
What BrandiQ&I want is devices, products, services, and economies that give US what the masses need.
I can't see how this can be so difficult. I never have. Free your mind. The rest will follow.
Lifetimes ago We were certain He would someday lead, not rule, the world. Decades ago i was certain. I can wait forever. Can you?
Some bites hurt less sooner.
