(Ifoto: UNakeva Corothers / Flickr) Njengaye nawuphi na umntu onengqondo, ndenza yonke into esemandleni am ukuhambisa ubomi bam kwindawo enukayo yosapho lakwaKardashian. Andihambisani nabo kwi-E yabo! bonisa, andilandeli namnye kubo kuTwitter, andikhe ndicofe naziphi na izihloko zokucofa kwi-bafa yam kuFacebook wokutya. Ndide ndiyiphephe imoto ehlekisayo eyi-Kanye West's's rambling, isazi kakuhle ukuba ndizakuphoswa ziinqabana ezinqabileyo zobunyulu obusulungekileyo obuthi ngamanye amaxesha bujikeleze incoko yenkcubeko enjengee-comets ze-lucidity ephefumlelweyo.
Okwangoku, ukunqanda amaKardashians kwakungenakwenzeka kwiveki ephelileyo nodliwanondlebe ka-Diane Sawyer kunye no-Bruce Jenner, njengoko ekugqibeleni wayehleli phantsi ukuze axoxe ngokutshintsha ukusuka koyena mdlali ubalaseleyo emhlabeni ukuya… kakuhle, akaqinisekanga okwangoku -Ngoko eyazi loo nto, kuzo zonke iinjongo, ungumfazi. Kubantu abaninzi, ukuba imithombo yeendaba zentlalo iyakholelwa, ezona zinto zimbini zothusayo ezivela kudliwanondlebe lukaBruce Jenner yayingu-1) ukuba uyiRiphabhlikhi kunye no-2) uKhan wanikela ngezona nkcazo zinika inkxaso ezivela kwicala losapho lakwaKardashian. .
Akukho nanye kwezi zinto ekufanele ukuba iyamangalisa: UJenner usisityebi, indoda emhlophe eneminyaka engama-65 ehlala eCalabasas-uyayifanela inkcazo. Kwaye yitsho into oyithandayo ka-Kanye's antics, xa umbeka ngokuchasene nawo onke amanye amalungu osapho lakwaKardashian-Jenner, nguye kuphela a) onetalente b) ukuba avelise nantoni na yobugcisa okanye inkcubeko efanelekileyo.
Yonke le nto yandenza ndacinga, kakhulu kukudana kwam, ngayo yonke le nto yayisenzeka eKardashian — itheyiphu yokwabelana ngesondo, edume ngokuba yindumasi, ubunyaniso bokubonisa kwabo ubunyani, ishishini lokuba ngabo. Baye kule minyaka ilishumi. Iteyiphu yesondo yaphuma ngoFebruwari 2007, kodwa yenziwa ifilimu ngo-2003. Ukugcina kunye neKardashians wenza ityala kungekudala emva koko (enkosi uRyan Seacrest). Kwi-2010, uKim watyikitya isixa semvumelwano yokuxhasa, eyakhokelela kwimirhumo yokubonakala ye-6- kunye ne-7, ekhokelela kwimigca yemveliso, kwaye isiya kugqatso ukusukela ngoko. Olona khuphiswano lunomdla kakhulu yayilelo lokuya kwigumbi lakhe lokulala ngothotho lweembaleki ezikumgangatho ophezulu-uReggie Bush, uMiles Austin, noKhris Humphries-de wade wavuka wazinza kunye nomqokeleli (ndibethela ukuba ngamagama ali-10 khange ndicinge ukuba ungabona kuprintwe). Kwaye khange siqale kwa ukungena nabantwana baseJenner-uBrody kunye nokuma kwakhe Iinduli ; UKendall kunye nesitayile sakhe ngemodeli; UKylie kunye nesitayile sakhe ngokuhlekisa.
Ngokukodwa bangumxholo wePhupha laseMelika (eMelika kuphela apho aba bantu banokufumana indlela eya kudumo kunye ne-fortune) kunye ne-American Nightmare (kuphela eMelika aba bantu , kubo bonke abantu, fumana udumo kunye nobutyebi).
Lonke ishishini liyinto nje engakholelekiyo, engafikelelekiyo (njengeCleveland Browns) endathi ndaqala ukuzibuza, ngokungathandabuzekiyo, kuthekani ukuba yonke loo franchise yaseKardashian yayiliqhinga elicokisekileyo? Ndiyathetha, bonke obu bubhanxa abunakuba yinyani, andithi? Ungathini ukuba yayilusapho olunye nje olukhulu oludityanisiweyo oludlala umdlalo omde kakhulu ukulungiselela lo mzuzu noBruce Jenner-eyilelwe ngokukodwa ukwenza ukubhengezwa kwenguqu yakhe kubonakale ngathi eyona nto iphambeneyo ukuphuma kolo sapho kwiminyaka elishumi!
Ngokutyhilwa kwiintsuku ezisemva kodliwanondlebe ukuba bonke abafazi bakaJenner babesazi malunga nomzabalazo wakhe wesini, sinokucinga ukuba yayiyimfihlo evulekileyo nabantu abasondeleyo kuye. Kwaye siyazi ngamava amva nje-uChaz Bono, u-Chelsea Manning, u-Alexis Arquette, u-Lana Wachowski-ukuba imiba yesazisi ayifane ihlale ngonaphakade. Ngokwenyani yayiyinto nje yexesha ngaphambi kokuba uJenner ajongane nomba esidlangalaleni. Yeyiphi indlela ebhetele yokulima umhlaba ngalo mzuzu wexesha elizayo ngethemba lokuhlakulela ukwamkelwa, kunokumngqonga ngesixhenxe sabona bantu banobuqhetseba, eyona nto iphazamisayo, ekhathazayo nabazikhukhumezayo abantu bakamabonwakude abakhe baziwa kwaye emva koko babandakanyeke kuthotho olwandayo Ngokumangalisa ngokugqithileyo, ukuphembelela umsindo, isimilo sokufuna ingqalelo esimvumela ukuba abe noxolo, uzinze, ubukho obunemfesane. Amandla azinzileyo. Eqhelekileyo!
Luhlobo lobukrelekrele, akunjalo? Iyelenqe elilungileyo. Iyavakala xa uhleli phantsi okomzuzu kwaye ucinge ngayo (ewe ayenzi njalo). Eyona nto yenza ukuba umbono ubhenele kukuba luhlobo lwengcinga yelenqe kuwe ndifuna ukukholwa. Kwaye ufuna ukuyikholelwa kuba uchithe eyona ndawo ingcono kule minyaka isibhozo idlulileyo ukwala ukukholelwa ukuba le ngqokelela ye-troglodyte yokuphefumla ngomlomo inokuba sisityebi kwaye idume ngaphezu kwakhe nawuphi na kuthi onokuba nethemba lokuba, nangona kukho ukungabikho italente, ubukrelekrele, incasa, okanye imigaqo yokuziphatha. Ngokwenyani asinakuyiqonda indlela aba bantu abatyebe ngayo kwaye badume kangaka, ke amabali afana neli bendisandul 'ukulakha akulula ukukholelwa, kodwa kulula ukuzakhela amabali antsonkothileyo, ahlukeneyo aqinisa indlela esicinga ngayo umhlaba kunjalo, okanye kufanelekile.
Le nto, ndicinga ukuba, ichaza phantse zonke iingcinga eziphambili zelenqe esijamelana nazo kwinkcubeko yethu namhlanje: anti-vaxxers, 9/11 truthers, evolution and Holocaust deniers, Moon Landing skeptics. Izinto ezisisiseko kumxholo ngamnye wecebo elisisiseko azikholeleki, zine-esoteric, zinkulu kwaye zincinci, zingenasiphelo kwaye zingenasiphelo, ngaphandle komda wayo nantoni na uninzi lwethu esijongana nayo mihla le, ukuba iseti esempilweni yoluntu ayinakho ukusonga ubuchopho obujikelezileyo. Kwanawona mibuzo asisiseko anzima kangangokuba iimpendulo zawo azifikeleleki:
Ungamjova njani umntu ngohlobo lwentsholongwane olunokwenzekakhuselakubo kwintsholongwane? Kwenzeka njani ukuba iinqwelo-moya ezine ziqweqwe ngaxeshanye kunye nezakhiwo ezibini ezikhulu ziwe nje emva kwemizuzu enye-ukusuka emlilweni? Kungenzeka njani ukuba sonke siguquke kwiinkawu okanye indalo iphela ibe nkulu ngaphandle kwento enkulu kwaye enamandla onke ebandakanyekayo? Ingenzeka njani into yokuba abantu abaninzi kangaka basiwe ezinkampini kwaye babhujiswe kanye phantsi kweempumlo kunye nawo onke loo majoni? Ungakhwela njani irokethi uye enyangeni emva koko uwele kuwo ngaphandle kokungqubeka?
Andinalwazi lokuba zeziphi ezona mpendulo kwimicimbi yezobuchwephesha kulowo nalowo mibuzo. Ndingathetha ngokukhaliphileyo kwizifundo zabo ngokubanzi, kodwa izinto ezithile sisuphu yokulinganisa kwezibalo, imithetho yefiziksi, kunye nemigaqo yokuthotyelwa kunye nokuncitshiswa endikufundileyo kwikholeji okanye ndigqibe kwelokuba alilixabisanga ixesha lam lokuphonononga ubunzulu obukhulu. Endaweni yoko, ndibeke ithemba lam kubulumko obuhlanganisiweyo bempucuko yabantu ukuba bandixelele, nangaphezulu okanye kancinci, ukuba sisiphi isivumelwano. Iingcali zobuqhetseba azinakukwenza oko. Isuphu endiyityikitye ngokungaboniyo icephe lam lobukrelekrele ndize ndityibilike, kubo ifundeka njengesiphithiphithi. Kwaye abanakuba nesiphithiphithi.
Ke ukuzisa ucwangco ekuziqondeni, ukuyiqonda yonke into, i-theorists yeqhinga lenza amabali ngezinto abazenzayo yenza qonda. Amaxesha amaninzi-ngakumbi xa imeko enzima okanye engathandekiyo efana ne-autism, ubunqolobi, ukubulawa kwabantu kunye nentsingiselo yobomi iyabandakanyeka-loo mabali aqala ngamaziko amakhulu, angenabuntu angenakufikelelwa kwaye angaziwa, kwaye ahlala ejongene nokubandezeleka okanye ukuxhamla okanye ukungaphumeleli u-theorist ngokwakhe uye wanyanzelwa ukuba anyamezele-ubuncinci ngokutsho kwakhe.
Yilapho ke iqala khona ingqumbo yeengcinga zelenqe. Idityanisiwe kwaye yenziwa yinto endiyithandayo ukubiza ii-simpletons (ngezinye izinto ezibonakalayo ezingabandakanyi UBill Maher ukunciphisa ulwazi olungelulo kunye nepropaganda ukuze ufike emazantsi ezinto ezintsonkothileyo, eziyinkimbinkimbi, ezi ngcamango ziya kuba ngokulinganayo, ukuba azikho ngaphezulu, zinzima kwaye zinzima. Indawo yabo yabaxhasi Irazor ye-Occam njengokuzikhusela ngokupheleleyo ekugxekweni. Kwaye ngesiqhelo, loo mgaqo usebenza ngokukuko kwicandelo elithile le-theory. Ingxaki kukuba, emva koko bayithatha loo ncakuba kwaye baqhubeke nokopha yonke enye ithiyori ekufeni ngokusikwa kwewaka.
Ikhonkco elingenakulinganiswa elibamba iqhinga eliqhelekileyo le-9/11, umzekelo (ekugqibeleni ukudilizwa okulawulwayo kwamabhilidi angama-100 +) lincinci kwaye lingenangqiqo ukuba umgca weembovane awunakuwela ngaphandle kwayo yonke into Ukuwa phantsi kobunzima obongezelelekileyo enzonzobileni yenkohliso yabadali bayo. Uya kufumana uphawu olufanayo lokuqiqa okungcungcuthekileyo oluqhuba kuyo yonke iyelenqe lokuchasana ne-vax nenyanga.
Ngamaxesha onke, kwisiseko sawo onke la maqhinga kuhlala uRhulumente. Isemva kwayo yonke into-ngakumbi ezo zinto ithiyori yelenqe ayinakukuchaza okanye ukudibanisa. Kuyabonakala ukuba, iRazor ye-Occam ayisiyo incakuba konke konke. Yikrele le-Excalibur kwaye, xa lisetyenziswa nguRhulumente, linokunciphisa i-Gordian-est yamaqhina.
Yilapho i-irony yokugqibela ibeka khona-kumanyano woburhulumente wokwenza iyelenqe lokuba a) usebenza b) ixesha elide kwaye c) uhlala uyimfihlo. Njengomntu owayehlala eWashington, DC, iminyaka emithathu kwaye enabahlobo abaninzi kunye nabantu ahlala nabo asebenza ngaphakathi nasekujikelezeni urhulumente wobumbano, andikwazi nokuqala ukubala inani lokuhleka kwesisu esabelana ngako ngombono waseMelika urhulumente wobumbano osebenzayo okanye osebenzayo. Isiqingatha sabantu abasezikhundleni kurhulumente bayasokola ukulawula amathumbu abo. Esinye isiqingatha somzabalazo wokulawula imingxunya yabo-ucinga ukuba kukho namnye kubo onoqeqesho lokulawula ukudilizwa komhlaba ophambili waseMelika?
Masingakulibali ukuba ubukhulu becala urhulumente ophetheyo ngoku ugcwele ezona ndawo ziphithizelayo, ezothusayo, ezothusayo kunye nabantu abazithobayo kweli lizwe abakhe baziwa ukuba ngubani, kule minyaka idlulileyo baye benza uthotho olwandayo lokudlakazelisa, ukuphembelela umsindo , Ukuziphatha okufuna ingqalelo okwenza ukuba usodolophu waseToronto uRob Ford abonakale ngathi yinkokeli ehloniphekileyo.
Isandi esiqhelekileyo? Ayisiyongxaki ukuba bayibize iWashington, D.C., iHollywood ngabantu ababi.
Oko kusibuyisela kuBruce Jenner kunye neKardashians. Ndingathanda ngaphezu kwayo nayiphi na into ukuba ndiyithenge kumayelenqe endalo yam. Kungathetha ukuba luhlobo lwenyani lweTV abayivelisayo kunye nenkcubeko abayichongayo inenjongo enkulu. Kungathetha ukuba into entle inokuvela kwi-voyeurism yokuzicekisa ezi zinto zibonisa ukungena nokuzixhaphaza. Ngelishwa, ndiyazi ukuba akunjalo.
Akukho qhinga lokudlala apha. Ukubeka ithemba lam kubulumko obuqokelelweyo bamava oluntu kuye kwandivumela ukuba ndisebenzise iRazor ye-Occam ngendlela elungileyo. Inkcazo elula kukuba le ayiloPhupha laseMelika, kodwa ayisiyiyo neAmerican Nightmare. Yonke le nto ikhetheke ngokukodwa, kodwa ke inguqulelo yaseMelika ejijekileyo yasentsomini — enoJenner ngamandla nangokuqaqamba kwindima ye-Snow White kunye nosapho olwandisiweyo lwaseKardashian lujikeleza ngokungathi abasixhenxe bayacaphukisa bephithizela.
