There is a idea that’s been in my head and I kinda want to share it, but basically it’s the idea that nation states are just super organisms that fight for their collective survival

2019-11-09 21:08:03 UTC  

And religion and ideology is a form of a survival strategy

2019-11-09 21:10:38 UTC  

wow bro

2019-11-09 21:10:40 UTC  

like

2019-11-09 21:10:47 UTC  

*puffs weed

2019-11-09 21:12:16 UTC  

pretty much true anyway

2019-11-09 21:12:18 UTC  

@snake frank salter has done some great work on exactly that idea

2019-11-09 21:18:01 UTC  

I knew it wasn’t a original idea because it was so basic, but I didn’t know exactly who wrote about

2019-11-09 21:18:12 UTC  

So thanks for letting me know @Roko

2019-11-09 21:18:14 UTC  

Seriously

2019-11-09 21:18:22 UTC  

You’re a chad

2019-11-09 21:19:06 UTC  

Np

@snake that's pretty much the history of nations. They are founded upon religious idealism and morals of varying types through the ages.

2019-11-10 00:20:28 UTC  

@snake @Roko I've had that same idea in my head, more along the ethnic group boundaries, and that religion is the manifested collective will

2019-11-10 00:21:23 UTC  

by that understanding, the whole "warring pantheons of gods/religions" of ancient times makes a lot more sense in a pretty neat way

2019-11-10 00:21:58 UTC  

Gods, by that sense, functionally serve as collective memetic manifestations of their people's ideals and will via theological persona

2019-11-10 00:44:04 UTC  

Yeah I have to agree, it would add to the collective consciousness or story people tell themselves

2019-11-10 01:39:59 UTC  

Spengler also talks about it @snake

2019-11-10 01:40:07 UTC  

Nice

2019-11-10 01:40:19 UTC  

Glad to see people talk about this idea

2019-11-10 05:10:04 UTC  

I have a idea for a question in the groyper war

“Hey boring Ben, how long does it take for Cookie Monster to bake 6 million cookies?”

2019-11-10 05:10:31 UTC  

Then ,you end up dead in an alley ten days later.

2019-11-10 05:11:24 UTC  

They hated Jesus because he told the truth

2019-11-10 05:12:11 UTC  

Not like Ben would know anything about that though.

2019-11-10 05:20:07 UTC  

That's not a good optics question

2019-11-10 05:20:23 UTC  
2019-11-10 05:20:30 UTC  

I know it’s a horrible question to ask

2019-11-10 05:42:12 UTC  

It's not about knowing the truth, but letting people know about it 😉

2019-11-10 07:39:08 UTC  

Alt Hype released a new video

spenglers cyclic narrative coupled with the religious influence I'm convinced was a blatent plagarism of the prophet of the Baha'i faith who wrote this before him.
