That's a good policy, Eccles

2020-03-05 23:54:38 UTC  

@ManAnimal if good meant pitiful

2020-03-05 23:54:54 UTC  

i can talk politics, xav, but it'll only be my opinion and personal justification

2020-03-05 23:54:56 UTC  

we all have limits

2020-03-05 23:55:08 UTC  

you can do ANYTHING... but not EVERYTHING

2020-03-05 23:56:11 UTC  

I can even do absolutely nothing

2020-03-05 23:57:03 UTC  

Clearly, not doing something is as valid as doing something.
As evidenced by... all the folks that do fuck all...

2020-03-05 23:57:44 UTC  

I call abstaining 'option No. 3'

2020-03-05 23:58:18 UTC  

systems and people only have legitimacy if you are actively participating

2020-03-05 23:58:43 UTC  

as long as the elite turn the Left and Right against each other, they are winning

2020-03-05 23:59:14 UTC  

but if people refuse to argue over bullshit..

2020-03-05 23:59:18 UTC  

and if you turn against the elite because they're elite, you're a communist

2020-03-06 00:00:34 UTC  

Not if they're traitors tho??

2020-03-06 00:00:51 UTC  

then go after people because they're traitors, not because they're left, right, or elite

2020-03-06 00:00:56 UTC  

values

2020-03-06 00:04:35 UTC  

What if all ideologies are just projections of inner psychology, reflected in groups largely because the people within those groups relatively share the same psychology?

2020-03-06 00:04:53 UTC  

That ideologies are little more than codifications of ideas that tick all the right boxes in your personal psychology I mean.

2020-03-06 00:05:09 UTC  

then you need to come up with a working model that allows these groups to co-exist without killing or enslaving each other

2020-03-06 00:05:17 UTC  

on it bth

2020-03-06 00:05:27 UTC  

it's a working theory

2020-03-06 00:05:44 UTC  

but what do people think? I've been stewing on it for a while

2020-03-06 00:05:49 UTC  

may as well put the rod out somewhere

2020-03-06 00:06:01 UTC  

what is a "person psychology"

2020-03-06 00:06:15 UTC  

personal psychology?

2020-03-06 00:06:23 UTC  

literally just the way **you** think

2020-03-06 00:06:36 UTC  

what do you think informs the way people think?

2020-03-06 00:06:40 UTC  

for example, Jung would boil it down to basic archetypes

2020-03-06 00:06:53 UTC  

I think it's rooted in biology but can be shaped socially

2020-03-06 00:06:59 UTC  

like a plant in a pot

2020-03-06 00:07:07 UTC  

but aren't basic archetypes just stereotypes? templates, a generalisation

2020-03-06 00:07:32 UTC  

If you plant a greenleaf seed it'll be a greenleaf plant when it grows, but you can control *how* it grows

2020-03-06 00:07:35 UTC  

sort of

2020-03-06 00:07:35 UTC  

Late night tv and your degree of skepticism thereof

2020-03-06 00:07:47 UTC  

zero = leftist

2020-03-06 00:08:01 UTC  

100% = sane

2020-03-06 00:08:23 UTC  

But there's many psychologists who have different models for interpreting how people think

2020-03-06 00:08:32 UTC  

I'm pretty much going to research all of them eventually

2020-03-06 00:08:39 UTC  

try to make cross sections out of working models

2020-03-06 00:08:42 UTC  

then craete my own

2020-03-06 00:08:44 UTC  

re-cross section
