Should we care if a piece of equipment comes from a pet-free, kid-free, smoke-free home?


I agree that I do not want a preamp or speaker coated with a film of smoke, but I am confused as to what a child or pet could do that would not be otherwise visible. You would see the cat scratches on the speaker grill, the dog chew marks on the rack, the iguana turds in the amplifier cooling vents. And what's a little dog hair among friends? As a 3 year old, I supposedly put my finger through my grandfather's new DIY speaker but I'm pretty sure he replaced the drivers so even that doesn't really matter. Most things will be visible and/or easily remedied.  Maybe the price will even be a little lower because of the cosmetics. If it doesn't mess with function, not a big deal to me.

What concerns me more is does it come from a drunk-free, drug-free home.  I think befuddled owners are far more worrisome than pets or children.

I will exclude not only fascist house owner as some did but communist house owner...

Why ?

Because fascism is born from an economical techno pseudo science where corporate powers collude with politic nationalism as in Italy or with religion as in Spain or as with racist biological science as in Germany...

Communism is born from techno cultist economical theory of class warfare born from ignorance by Marx.

All these techno cults based on biology or economy come from before Marx and before Adam Smith from the genius of calvinist Bernard Mandeville trying to solve the scarcity problem and the social control problem after the demise of oligarchic tyranny in England and the birth of democracy in England.

Mandeville thought about deep methods inspired by his calvinist predestination ideology to make the social Hive creative in spite of the sins and with the help of the sins and created before Adam Smith the market concept , Smith plagiarise, and truncate his thoughts , and stole from him the concept of market; and more than that  Mandeville genius created before Freud the concept of the unconscious in 1714. Mandeville called by all Europe the "man of the devil" said " Men are not where they thought they are ". he created the concept of social classes before marx and deeper than him : the pervert psychopath at the head, the nevrotic narcissists,  in the middle and in the margin the self centered sociopath, for sure he does not use these modern words but it is the same .   It is Mandeville who said : " the private vices create the collective virtue"... This truth being too unconvenient to be said as that ,  from Smith to Hayek they pudically rename  the vices a "self interest" in the austrian school of economy  ...😁

He literally wote the social control user manual to govern people without them being conscious of it .This is the reason why Hayek whose economic school win 8 Nobel prizes called him "our master to us all"...Think about that...😊

Then if you do not want to stay ignorant ban fascism yes but as well as communism and dont listen and dont trust any person who ban only one of these two monsters...They had a common root...

Have you not observed that techno cultism is the next religion not fascism alone or communism alone but something much worse ? materialism gave birth to techno-cultism which is the father of transhumanism religion ...

Many idiotic people stir the pot with left/right propaganda... Be over it and think by ourselves...

As you can see my post is philosophical not as some just did about ideological watchword ...

inform yourself before repeating watchwords of any left or right propagandist...

 

As said Chesterton : "the modern world is full of chritian ideas gone mad"

Calvinist predestination from which modern economy is born, unbeknowst to most economist save Hayek and few others, is such an idea gone mad. Add materialism and you had techno-cultism ideology of the fascist kind or of the communist kind , pick your flavor. ...

 

I know people sleep when some others throw  propaganda watchwords..

I prefer to think sorry skip my post... 😊

@mahgister You sound like a nice guy but why do you always have to get philosophical with all your posts?

Yogiboy thanks for your kind reply...And humor...

But someone in a non political thread throw a political watchword : he does not want to buy from fascism home...

I add i dont want to buy from communist home either...

And then i want to explain for those who are able to think where does these political propaganda and watchwords came from IN HISTORY ...

It is not informative to know where capitalism amd Marxist come from ?

This will makes us able to stay away from political ideologue...

I dont like watchwords from any side in this actual civil unrest in America...

Then i appeal to the brain of people in my post , the other poster may appeal to crowd reaction... I do not act like that sorry...

I apologise if thinking may be disturbing but it is necessary to correct those who throw easy watchword....... 😊

Making people think WITH HISTORY is better than stirring the toxic and intoxicated left/right pot ...

Then my posts about music and about also acoustics and about audiophilia system creation are sometimes "philosophical" but i dont speak to crowd i spoke for those able to think ... Acoustic, music , and audio system creation are anyway philosophical journey too it is about understanding not just purchase and blind consumerism ...

For example i just gave many articles adresses describing an acoustic scientific revolution in the understanding of hearing and music right now  in some thread... This is positive no ?

Better than a post appeal to ban fascism ... Why not communism too ? and why not understanding the link between these two monsters ?

We must understand what is a sound to appreciate our hobby ...It is impossible without philosophy of science...
