To where battle for perception and information is at the forefront.

2018-09-20 06:03:10 UTC [Subverse #general]  

And we just shit all over the planet acting with our ape brains, but are high on this accidental unprecedented capacity for abstraction.

2018-09-20 06:03:45 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Honestly, I'd prefer us dead.

2018-09-20 06:04:11 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Before we bring imperialism to space.

2018-09-20 06:05:13 UTC [Subverse #general]  

That is a red herring.

2018-09-20 06:05:24 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Why would we want that?

2018-09-20 06:05:53 UTC [Subverse #general]  

No way.

2018-09-20 06:06:04 UTC [Subverse #general]  

It does no such thing.

2018-09-20 06:06:18 UTC [Subverse #general]  

We're just acting on social impulse.

2018-09-20 06:06:58 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Contemplating our navel has no real value.

2018-09-20 06:07:37 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Consciousness or not, our mammal social instincts play out the same way.

2018-09-20 06:08:36 UTC [Subverse #general]  

The result being building and building and building on top of the earth.

2018-09-20 06:08:51 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Reforming the planet in our image.

2018-09-20 06:09:49 UTC [Subverse #general]  

That is a question that could totally be avoided and you'd be better off for it.

2018-09-20 06:10:23 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Finding an excuse for you existing isn't inherently valuable.

2018-09-20 06:10:58 UTC [Subverse #general]  

🤔

2018-09-20 06:11:25 UTC [Subverse #general]  

That's the thing.

2018-09-20 06:12:32 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Why would I want to SD?

2018-09-20 06:13:05 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Accomplishment in the social sphere feels viscerally rewarding.

2018-09-20 06:13:45 UTC [Subverse #general]  

We can just be happy chasing lower brain functions.

2018-09-20 06:14:03 UTC [Subverse #general]  

And it does our psychology more good than philosophy.

2018-09-20 06:15:31 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Foundation isn't necessary at all.

2018-09-20 06:15:46 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Or animals wouldn't be able to function.

2018-09-20 06:16:44 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Yes.

2018-09-20 06:17:56 UTC [Subverse #general]  

But our recent adaptations are like duct tape. While our lower brain is a solid base.

2018-09-20 06:19:26 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Higher brain stuff just seems like flavoring to lower brain drives to me.

2018-09-20 06:19:41 UTC [Subverse #general]  

So abstraction is basically just aesthetic.

2018-09-20 06:21:32 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I think we were talking about two different things at the same time and our points just converged in a hamfisted way.

2018-09-20 06:23:05 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Same

2018-09-20 06:23:43 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Well. So am I and I believe what I believe.

2018-09-20 06:24:31 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Sigh.

2018-09-20 06:25:17 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Back to the main topic.

2018-09-20 06:25:45 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Who wants us to move to this authoritarian liberal paradigm?

2018-09-20 06:26:12 UTC [Subverse #general]  

What is pushing us towards it and to what end?

2018-09-20 06:26:36 UTC [Subverse #general]  

And how practical is it to avoid?

2018-09-20 06:29:51 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Sounds like a cop out.

2018-09-20 06:30:25 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Obviously people are changing the world at an alarming rate.

2018-09-20 06:30:54 UTC [Subverse #general]  

So finding a mechanism that breaks their process apart is vital.

2018-09-20 06:31:54 UTC [Subverse #general]  

What can stop or corrupt this strategy of extreme dissemination of paralyzing ideology?

2018-09-20 06:33:16 UTC [Subverse #general]  

It is very cancer like in how it just takes over existing structures and copies itself using the structure as a base.

2018-09-20 06:33:58 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Lol

2018-09-20 06:35:13 UTC [Subverse #general]  

It sucks so much that talking about it to people makes you sound like some street corner prophet.

2018-09-20 06:35:32 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Like a conspiracy theorist or something.

2018-09-20 06:36:33 UTC [Subverse #general]  

If you kill your enemies, they win.

2018-09-20 06:37:23 UTC [Subverse #general]  

We're too paralyzed to do this en masse though.

2018-09-20 06:37:50 UTC [Subverse #general]  

We don't think we have a right to pride or self preservation.

2018-09-20 06:38:19 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Whites don't 🤷

2018-09-20 06:39:02 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Are you really a nationalist?

2018-09-20 06:39:28 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I'm not sure what that means to you.

2018-09-20 06:40:26 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Really makes you think

2018-09-20 06:40:33 UTC [Subverse #general]  

<:Riping:328606644982513666>

2018-09-20 06:41:43 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Dr. Doom is someone to aspire to be like.

2018-09-20 06:42:59 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I'd rather at least get along with people nearby and feel pride.

2018-09-20 06:43:22 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Bias schmias

2018-09-20 06:43:55 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Give me back my nukyalur family.

2018-09-20 06:44:46 UTC [Subverse #general]  

There's always some asshole above you making a Faustian bargain with your soul

2018-09-20 06:46:07 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Whatever.

2018-09-20 06:46:28 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I'm voting for Trump this time.

2018-09-20 06:46:57 UTC [Subverse #general]  

🤔

2018-09-20 06:47:07 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Explain.

2018-09-20 06:47:25 UTC [Subverse #general]  
2018-09-20 06:49:11 UTC [Subverse #general]  

What kind of music do you make?

2018-09-20 06:49:28 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Would rightist thought put to music be punk now? 🤔

2018-09-20 06:50:19 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I think of it as masculine vs feminine

2018-09-20 06:51:29 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I don't necessarily mean it in a JP way

2018-09-20 06:52:12 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Can you read sheet music? 🤔

2018-09-20 06:52:41 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I need some help with rock. There's a lot about the tropes I need to learn.

2018-09-20 06:53:29 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I kind of need help with rhythm really.

2018-09-20 06:53:38 UTC [Subverse #general]  

But you probably feel it more than can codify it.

2018-09-20 06:54:29 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I just need like a collection of rhythmic idioms to work with.

2018-09-20 06:55:14 UTC [Subverse #general]  

rn I've been trying to learn how to implement basslines like in this song

2018-09-20 06:55:51 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I understand subdivisions, what about it?

2018-09-20 06:57:09 UTC [Subverse #general]  

It is synth-y rock

2018-09-20 06:57:28 UTC [Subverse #general]  

It is closer to rock than most anything else so

2018-09-20 06:57:44 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Right.

2018-09-20 06:57:58 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Most Japanese music like that tend to have jazz influences.

2018-09-20 06:58:14 UTC [Subverse #general]  

How is it classical?

2018-09-20 06:58:51 UTC [Subverse #general]  

It is the drums and the bass that I want to walk away with here

2018-09-20 06:59:20 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Oh, you can pretty much hear modulations?

2018-09-20 06:59:42 UTC [Subverse #general]  

planing?

2018-09-20 07:00:03 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Well, it pretty much is Chinese 🤷

2018-09-20 07:01:51 UTC [Subverse #general]  

You mean same quality?

2018-09-20 07:01:55 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Same intervals etc

2018-09-20 07:02:27 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I get it more or less

2018-09-20 07:02:43 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I mostly have classical experience, then jazz experience

2018-09-20 07:03:04 UTC [Subverse #general]  

But I am wanting to integrate blues and its offshoots into my vocabulary

2018-09-20 07:03:13 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Oh, okay

2018-09-20 07:03:19 UTC [Subverse #general]  

That is helpful to know

2018-09-20 07:03:37 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I just assumed it was some minor mode common jazz progression or something

2018-09-20 07:04:25 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Oh, so it is just planing going on?

2018-09-20 07:05:59 UTC [Subverse #general]  

The harmony is probably worth looking at

2018-09-20 07:06:14 UTC [Subverse #general]  

But it is mostly the rhythmic ideas I want to internalize

2018-09-20 07:06:42 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I'm considering picking up bass

2018-09-20 07:07:59 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I have a pretty good understanding of the concepts

2018-09-20 07:08:12 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Based on the improv class I was in

2018-09-20 07:08:30 UTC [Subverse #general]  

It is just about learning it on an instrument

2018-09-20 07:09:09 UTC [Subverse #general]
