Nationalist Tensions « Previous |
December 21, 2007

One of the tensions in liberalism is that increasing liberty erodes the value of closed technological loops such as nationalism. I was in California this week doing a round of meetings and introductions so I didn't have much time for photography. However on Tuesday night we managed to visit several restaurants and bars; ending in this Karaoke bar in San Mateo.

Karaoke bar in San Mateo

The karaoke bar sang as much Spanish as it did English. In fact the guy that stole the night did so with a Spanish rendition of "I did it my way" in a wonderfully powerful voice. No one cared. Fun was being had. Drinks were being sold. Liberalism won the night.
