The banana eaters.

In the last post I mentioned the banana eaters of the feast of man in Friuli, and now I have to talk about them. Honestly, I already find it extravagant that parties are held in Friuli: from a population that on average pronounces one word a week, and twice out of three is to say a sad thing, I didn't expect it.

I don't want to know what a party is like when everyone makes only two or three sounds for ten thousand people, most of them guttural. But I know, from direct knowledge, that if thousands of Friulians have decided to have a party, they will do it. You can ask Putin to bomb the place, nuke it, put an Aztec pyramid on it and then make human sacrifices, but if a Friulian has decided to do something he will do it, if thousands have decided it, you can consider it as something that will happen. Point.

Therefore, opposing this thing is useless: the Borg could change their minds, but not the Friulians. The last time a Friulian changed his mind, Charlemagne died. No one has yet understood the relationship between the two, but it is better not to make controversy in Friuli.

The controversy is therefore useless. The party will happen.


After all, besides the fact that a party in Friuli seemed a contradiction in terms, who the hell knew, in the world, that there was a Man's Day in Friuli? Forget the banana eating contest: who the hell knew about this, apart from Patrick Zaki and Nostradamus' hemorrhoids?

I don't want to be like those who say "you just advertised them": but it must be said, the Higgs boson was slightly more visible than that party. When Heisemberg spoke of uncertainty, he spoke of the Festival of Man held in Friuli. No scientific experiment could really establish whether it was done or not.

We can summarize it in these terms: it is very difficult, without a particle accelerator, to appreciate the importance of the banana-eating competition that takes place in a party that takes place in Friuli.

Ultimately, we are talking about microscopic physical phenomena, closer to quantum mechanics. Unfortunately, cats don't like to eat bananas.


That said, all the fuss has its own use.

In the world of science, to say, often when you don't know the size of something you find a way to compare it with the size of something else.

Now, since we know the microscopic dimension of the "banana eating" problem, we can deduce that:

  • Being on the front page like the clash between the US and China, these are unimportant military skirmishes. If nuclear war was really possible, you would not read about banana eaters, but about nuclear shelters.
  • Being on the same level as the Russian-Ukrainian war, it is not true that the Ukrainians are protecting the whole of Europe and that they are saving us. Otherwise, instead of the feast of man in Friuli, we would read about the call to the draft of able men.
  • being at the same level as the exhortations not to let the fascists win in order not to bring down Europe, the situation must not be so serious.

Proof? Look at the papers of how TRUE the wars (and news) were:

try to zoom in and read. Do you see things like village parties, banana eaters, soccer divorces, and more?

No.

Because other things were important. And the difference was so big, that if you put the real news first, the banana eaters ended up on the seventh page at least. From another newspaper. From another country.


What I mean? I mean this:

we are westerners. We are the richest people on the planet. We are the ones who have the most rights. We are the ones who have the most freedom. We are the ones who have the most security.

We are the ones who LIVE IN FEAR AND ANXIETY.

And it happens because news such as “It's hot”, which today is called “Revelation 4800”, are passed off as catastrophes. Do you want to know how I think? If the planet were at risk of extinction, you would not read about banana eaters in the newspapers: you would read how bananas are grown.

It is clear that the Western population is being repressed by using the media to spew fear upon us.

Faced with terrifying news, the 3F mechanism instinctively triggers:

  1. Fight (fight)
  2. Flight (escape)
  3. Freeze (stay still)

which was once referred to as Fight or Flight, but studies on anxiety and depression have expanded, introducing the "FREEZE". ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fight-or-flight_response )

When I tell you that the planet is facing an Apocalypse 4800, what can you do? You don't know who to fight, you don't know where to escape, and so … freeze. Stand still. Property. Make no noise. You don't want others to make noise near you. And while you are still, they cut it in the ass by taking taxes from entrepreneurs, and increasing them to you.

When you know that the Russian-Ukrainian war can be a nuclear war in Europe, what do you do? You can't fight. You can not escape. Freeze. And while you're standing still, they get it in your ass with a nice hike in gas prices.

And what does this have to do with banana eaters? Simple: if banana eaters are in the papers, none of those great dangers are real. They are very magnified.

I'm not saying that the dangers don't exist: they say they are SOOOOO much smaller. They are as small as a banana eating competition at a local festival in Friuli. They are on the "You can give a fuck to the end of time" scale.

Because when there is a REAL danger, they don't talk about banana eaters in the papers.

In a certain sense, the fact that we are discussing it is a confirmation: we are not running into very serious problems. The wheat crisis is not as serious as they say, otherwise there would be no obesity epidemic in the West. And not even the Russian-Ukrainian crisis is that serious, otherwise you wouldn't go on vacation to Romania. Revelation 4800 is a convenient scapegoat to hide the fact that water resources have not been managed for years: as a problem, global warming is evidently not as big as it seems.

And in the end, fuck

STOP FEARING.

None of the problems we read about are really that serious: otherwise there would be no space for news about banana eaters.

Thank you, banana eaters.

Thanks to you we are freer.

But do you really believe that the Italian vote will bring down Europe?
