pub: POST UNCONSCIOUS BIAS

Following on from yesterday’s post… (I was going to post artwork this week, but as so often happens in my blogging, world events take over, and like the superhero greenYgrey could’ve been, I have to fly to the rescue… in my mind!?)… Unconscious Bias should only be a first line of defence.

Then if you have to get to know them; spend more time with them; conscious evaluation should take over!

Groomers/terrorists recruit people from other races/genders to do their work for them (Lord Haw Haw was a famous U.S./U.K. one in WW2!) if they think they won’t be trusted by their targets/victims’ Unconscious Bias (maybe Prince Harry is a victim?).

The blog post image above is a ‘self-portrait’ drawing of how I thought my ADHD conscious/unconscious worked when I finished my PhD and started my creative writing in 2005.

My posts on Facebook are already backlogged for this site, going back to some of my childhood and youth TV highlights; and how they influenced the pagan me and wondering how today’s Black Power focus is going to inspire the younger generation; and centuries of British history!

With Remembrance Sunday in the U.K. around the corner I thought it was a good time to post this rock and war blog that has remained in the Greenygrey vaults for about a month.

Rock And War

Hi, it’s Baron Wolfman, head of Greenygrey creation, and specialist in photography like my human parallel Baron Wolman. Rock music has usually been used to protest against war, and Pink Floyd have been at the forefront of criticising unnecessary wars.

This is mostly because Roger Waters lost his father in World War Two. This greenygrey photo posted on Google+ by Seth Meister shows Waters recently visiting his father’s memorial in Italy to honour his father.

Judas Priest have a song called War, as well as one called Breaking the Law.

Around the same time as the above Roger Waters photo surfaced, Planet Rock on Facebook posted the photo below of their singer Rob Halford camouflaging himself nicely against the window and bushes for his war with the lawn.

Perhaps the most famous and best rock protest song is Black Sabbath’s War Pigs, which criticised the hierarchy who create and perpetuate wars for their own personal gain, whether for their egos and place in history, or financial gain.

World War One, or the Great War as it is also known, is probably the biggest example of this in Britain. Here’s some of the War Pigs lyrics from the Cheezburger website, with half a greenygrey.

Some wars are necessary, and some provide people and animals the chance to become heroes. Many people desire the opportunity to be heroes, while others are reluctant ones.

This is natural, and especially when movies and media glamourise war. The Greenygrey isn’t against that, and there’s enough ‘reality’ out there to balance it, although most people won’t see it, and won’t want to.

World War Two was probably the most necessary war for Britain. The U.S.A. joined in, played a major role, and then made some great movies about it. One of the best, and perhaps THE best, was The Great Escape.

Steve McQueen played the cool American in that, and we were delighted to see that greenygrey played a big part below him… and behind him!
