The Famous Joe Walsh [James Gang] swoons,
"Every body's so different ---I haven't changed".
Lou Holt indicates a Cataclysmal "Paradigm Shift" from Kenedy's "Ask Not what your Country can do for you..." to an "End Player" Consumerist* who worships 'IMMEDIATE' [Self] Gratification and who LOATHES "Delayed Gratification" of ANY Kind or Sort . In her THE AGE OF SURVEILLANCE CAPITALISM Zuboff locates, "I want what I want and, I want it NOW ". Dare we ask, "What the phuq happened to PATIENCE ????? Indeed, Patience WAS a Virtue, a Cherished Virtue, that held EONIC* {Psycho-Philosophical} `Template` from the Early Middle Ages onward. Some of You may remember Piers The Ploughman and its "The Patient Conquer" which was Considered something of a Cosmic Absolute [at the Time]. 10th Century Cleric, Richard Langland, got this one RHYTE* . His Work has held True EONS until THIS "Day". Here now, Capitalism and Consumerism has "Turned" Individuals to "End Game" -- "Bottom Line" -- Devour-ers, that is, "Individuals" whose NEED for "materials"can be likened to STARVING Animals and their NEED for food .
