Thoughts, Observations and Questions.

we couldn’t believe that such a farcical attempt at reason could exist for so long. it literally lasted hundreds of years. the lengths that this type of man - what in bio-economical terms we’ve defined as an ‘ergonomic parasite’ - would go to in an effort to defend and justfy his ‘right’ not to work, was astonishing. and they employed all manner of philosophers to do so. from ontology to religion to economics, they tried to design a comprehensive body of knowledge and science to prove it had to be like this… that it wouldn’t work any other way. even the poets and artists went to work under its banner. finally an entire world view was manufactured that captivated everyone, and all for one end; to keep this parasite from having to labor. we had originally thought it was for something more profound… like a genuine attempt to define and understand human nature… and for a while it was convincing. they used darwin, nietzsche, adam smith, and many others to build a theory around the premise that man had to be naturally exploitative and competitive in order to recognize and realize his greatest potential. but then that fell through as so much more dubious speculation already engendered by the momentum of the market revolutions taking place; even philosophy took the new form of production which would mirror the modes of economy now prevalent. a great explosion of productive force over the course of a few decades, and next thing you know, all the philosophers were writing about it as if they had found the philosopher’s stone. well of course they were… there was a market for the crap they were writing, so of course they did it. we watched the world spontaneously divide into two classes right before our eyes; the bourgeois team of business owners and philosopher hacks that supported them, and the proletarian team of workers and revolutionary theorists who immediately set to stopping this charade before half of the earth was crawling with them. we quickly won the theoretical war with little effort, wiping the conservative thinkers out. the capitalist theory/practice literally blew itself up… we hardly had to make an effort. now we were waiting for the dialectic of history to fire it off. but we’d never forget this greatest of ironies in the history of man; how could such a centuries long magnificent body of theoretical hot air evolve that would end up proving only one thing for sure? that the parasite type would do anything to come up with an excuse not to work. that’s it. that’s all it was. what an unbelievable hoax. no great discoveries, no cutting edge scientific knowledge, no pioneering fields of research. nothing. how could it have taken us so long to see through this facade and call this bullshit out? that’s the question we ask ourselves, and that we were so long deceived by it is a testament to the extraordinary ability of the lazy creature man to use all of his faculties and sophistication to figure out a way to avoid having to work. now that the revolution is over, we’ve changed the title of adam smith’s ‘wealth of nations’ to ‘how to stay on the couch and get the other guy to do the work’. it’s become a bit of an international joke now. we keep it in a museum in which we have on exhibit old capitalism relics. philosophy books, economic equations, novels (we’ve got all of rand’s stuff in a gallery), propaganda art (music and film), all sorts of stuff. it’s become quite the tourist attraction.

Only the greatest thinkers can discover it, and just below them reside the only ones who can be shown. Everyone else sees nonsense, whether through nescience, brainwashing, or pride. Is it any wonder sly ole Chomsky has abandoned his multi-decade crusade only to latch onto climate change?

so i’m doing sets of push-ups and the old lady’s shih-tzu is sitting there watching me. fuck it, i’ll talk to him, sure. i say ‘i’m doing push-ups, riley… push-ups are good for you’ in a soft baby-like voice that people use when talking to dogs. now i know he doesn’t understand the linguistic content of what i said, but he does respond to the intonation, pitch, volume, and general tone of my speech. it says to his primitive little brain; this creature is not trying to harm me and appears to want to cooperate with me. i shall therefore not enter into my fight mode and instead continue to observe the behavior of this strange creature pushing the floor away from him.

and then suddenly a thought occurred to me. the most intelligent species on the planet has the custodial responsibility to assist in the evolution of all other species. and it does this by forcing it’s culture onto the lower species. if i were to talk to this dog for 30,000 years, there’s a good chance i could speed up its evolution and instigate neurological change that would equip the animal with an rudimentary conceptual understanding of my language, yes?

The dog is wondering how much longer it has to wait before brainiac finally dispenses food

How does one realize what the most intelligent would do?

How long is that in dog years?

The sound of the rain needs no translation

wait a minute… go back to the video i posted three posts up. notice anything strange about what that old lady immediately said to me? no, i don’t think what compelled her to tell me her husband was dying of cancer, was just some random comment or attempt to garner sympathy from me. and her voice broke a little when she said it. notice that? i think rather that her soul could sense that i’m a healer, and it wanted me to give her and her husband my blessing.

and how did i do it? by ignoring what she said, for to speak with distress and concern for the dying is to already divide the beings-in-the-world frivolously and unnecessarily into dualistic modalities of life and death, modes of being which are not distinct on the plane of immanence. ergo; i should not speak falsely to those for whom such distress is concerned.

You remind me of a good friend I once had, before I could recognize such things, and lots of strange things happened around that dude.

lol that’s nothing. years ago i’m in a coffee shop logged into ILP and some dude stops in front of the window, takes a picture of me, comes in, sits down beside me, and starts praying. wtf man?

wouldn’t it be cool if this stuff was more than just coincidence? like, what if something is going on here? i’m going to do some meditation and astral travel now so i can tap into the hidden esoteric forces all around me. be right back.

Just butting in; happens to me all the time, synchronous stuff , at first it’s unnerving but after a while it becomes routinely stratospheric. In analysis days, nowadays calling it banalysis, the shrinka wrote a book with which insort of agree nowadays, where she claims that since Heisenberg , borderline is descending or ascending toward mainline population, and that is why the road toward enlightenment is being more brought of it’s capsule.
Gestalt is on the other side of the same page.in fact the Whole Earth Catalogue is full of practical applications of hands on Karen Horney type self realizations.
I disagree, its the drugging for commercial gain rather then for seeking higher plateaus, for the systemic treatment of symptoms rather then the other way around, the treatment of the system.

I followed Your thoughts here and one thing: though: if You took the 2% of the guilty concentration of capital, and distributed it to the lower barges, it would simply cease to exist, cause they would simply live off the capital.

The middle class with values would not need it anyway, they are programmed not to receive but to be taxed, and they are usually ok with the status quo.
How would, could not the middle class copies and cats be able to submerge their represeed animosity, without recording to blatant violence?

Yes (I think).

I am?

Idk man, but my opinion is whatever is making you so smart (doors of perception) is making it happen. That dude was annoyingly flippin out about bin laden before anyone knew who he was, called the 03/2003 stock market bottom the day it happened, and generally just too perceptive for his own damn good. If a hawk flew over, it meant something. Something was said, the wind would blow, and it would mean something. He prayed that I’d find a job, I rolled my eyes like whateva man, the next morning the phone was ringing and ringing waking me up and some guy was offering me a job. Mom used to say that people could see god in me, but I don’t think it’s god, but light nonetheless where light = understanding. You’re privy to too much and it’s drawing the bugs in. A vortex for troubled souls.

… and what this means is that all the possible questions and inquiries a species such as ours with its particular language and sensory apparatus (both structured by concrete neurological processes and components), have already been asked/made. no new philosophical questions can evolve unless there is a substantial change in our physiology, the environment we are in, or both. so while philosophers are babbling on about old questions and problems - which are usually linguistic problems rather than conceptual problems - the gradual change that might/can take place with our species and environment is being monitored by science. the question, to the extent that another philosophical question can be posed, is this; what should be the goals of science now that with it, we are able to control and manipulate not only our species, but our environments as well. we need a scientific ethics… and i think that is possible. but to do this we need to be clear about what we can do with science, or what should be of scientific interest. i think this answer is obvious. increasing human longevity, species mobility (space colonization), genome enhancement, education, cleaner energy sources, eco-preservation, eradication of various diseases, sexier women, etc. a general enhancement of the length, quality and space of/for life. incidentally the greatest obstacle to a serious and sustained effort to begin these projects is global capitalism… because it opens up and leaves these project forces subject to randomly and whimsically selected forms of market organization.

example: by now the world could be driving electric cars, but they aren’t, because private investors are not interested in, or motivated by, the advantages of cleaner energy sources. they are motivated by profit, and if there is an already vibrant market for gasoline powered motor vehicles on earth, they’d continue to invest in that market.

we cannot rely on global capitalism to respond to the stimulus to innovate at the fastest and most efficient rate possible… which should be, in our century, the guiding principle for the development of technology and industry.

so we have a system in which not only are the capitalist functionaries unecessary in the modes of production and distribution, but are also incredibly slow at responding to the scientific projects and tasks mentioned above.

any time you have an important technology that is perfectly able to be mass produced at a point in time, but is not, you can bet your ass that it’s the usual suspects to blame; the private industry owners.

well, the world will no longer tolerate stalling the improvement of man because some new industry that could do it, might or might not put money in some shmuck’s pocket. that’s 20th century nonsense. dinosaur economics.

these premises are very basic and simple enough. no need for ‘philosophy’ here… and anyone who would object to doing it this way would HAVE TO BE a capitalist… or some moron still under the spell of capitalism (thanks to philosophy; long story, that).

we are entering the age in which a lot of fat and gristle is going to be cut off of the giant cheeseburger we are about to start eating, called ‘world economics’, and the improvement of man will begin in rapid progression, following shortly thereafter.

meanwhile the philosophers can continue twiddling their thumbs and asking profound metaphysical questions as they’ve always done. it’s okay. they’re not in the way anymore. this train can’t be stopped.

a philosopher takes a bong hit and asks one of those incredibly deep and important questions:

I have begun the indoctrination of the Mexican proletariat, and with a little patience, I’ll transform Alvin from a residential painter into a revolutionary cadre and guerrilla soldier.

Batteries of electrical cars are still charged using fossil fuels, not to mention the environmental cost of their production.

Thats just one of the threads hanging loose from these green panties you’re wearing.

Obviously you’re never going to drive an electrical vehicle, as you have to charge them at registered places. They can drive at most 300 miles before you have to charge them for another few hours.

Obviously hydrogen will be the thing for freight on the road, batteries for large vehicles are far too heavy. Besides this, batteries will only become green when they’re powered without fossil fuels, i.e. with nuclear power.

Its really hard to think, is it not. Typing shit in google is so much easier, right?

On your general premise here, in fact philosophy had not resolved a single thing until Nietzsche came around. And what N resolved was only the beginning. Look at physics. If you know anything about that. There is no end to the unresolved questions.

If it took a chicken and a half a day and a half to lay an egg and a half, how long would it take a monkey with a wooden leg to read Heidegger’s Being and Time?

Probably not as long as it took me to try to grasp what you were trying to say with those “and a half” phrases.

I was tempted to ask you how long it took You ~ lol ~ but I will not. You will have to forgive me. I seem to be in a funny mood at this moment.

“Should I delete this?” she asks herself. No, I will be brave and let it stand.

Anyway, that would surely depend on just how busy that monkey was and if he liked to walked while he read. Remember, that wooden leg would surely slow him down.

This just in: 19 undocumented Mexicans and other foreigners worked for a/the trump organization.

Moral of the story: campaign against illegal immigrants UNLESS you’re a capitalist who can exploit them for cheap labor on the down low.
