Would Ishmael have thought that the ancient Greek governmental system was fair?

No one really knows what Ishmael would think. I know that the ancient Greek government has basically 4 kinds of government: monarchies, oligarchies, tyrannies, and democracies. But I think we are talking about the time period which Plato was in, in which the women and children were to be shared. I think that Ishmael would think that this kind of society is wrong, because Ishmael basically stands on nature's side, and in nature, when an animal is born, usually, the animal belongs to the family, and no one else, of course there are a few exceptions. Basically, even in nature, the animals have the right to own their own children, then shouldn't humans should as well?

BARAKA

This is the first movie I watched that doesn't have any speaking parts in it. It was 70 minutes of just spectacular videos. I think this movie is telling us about the world, in densely populated places, and places where there are nobody. I think the movie is telling us extremeness of the world, all the things we find extraordinary. There are plenty of things he could have shown as well, why did this movie chose to show these places instead of others? For example, I noticed it didn't show anything under water. I think it showed us the opposites of things, it showed us a busy and rich city, and it showed us a slow and poor city. It showed how calm nature is, and it showed how rushed the humans are. The director seems to be telling us to get a comfortable chair and sit in it for 48 hours in different places and see how the world changes slowly or rapidly, to see how amazing things are right now.
