I have no notions of a perfect society, I donโt know what that means. I know we can do much better than what weโve got, Iโm no utopian, Iโm not a humanist that would like to see everybody living in warmth and harmony: I know that if we donโt live that way, weโll kill each other and destroy the Earth.
Jacque FrescoIf you want your children to relate to the culture you live in, if you want to train them outside of the general system, you have to tell your children that ordinary children tend to say things like 'I can run faster than you; I can draw better than you; I know things you don't know'. You have to tell them what normal children are like. Normal children are messed up and you have to tell them about that. But if you instruct your child in high correlation with the physical world, they won't be able to relate with normal children. Normal means mixed up as I use the word.
Jacque FrescoI asked myself, 'How are you going to change all these people, they have different values, different customs, different language, different interpretations?' So thatโs the time I joined the Ku Klux Klan in Miami. The reason I joined is to see if I could change them. So I dissolved that organization in a month-and-a-half, alone. [Applause] Then I joined the White Citizen Council. The WCC hates foreigners โ all foreigners. So I joined that organization; I dissolved it in one month.
