it makes it that beleiveing in a god in a pragmatic sense is the same as not beliving in a god

2018-09-20 06:19:26 UTC  

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

2018-09-20 06:19:36 UTC  

and just ends up being intellectual jerking off

2018-09-20 06:19:41 UTC  

So abstraction is basically just aesthetic.

2018-09-20 06:19:53 UTC  

BUT with no real world outcome

2018-09-20 06:19:59 UTC  

well like i said

2018-09-20 06:20:08 UTC  

there are tangible things we can abstract over

2018-09-20 06:20:22 UTC  

which brings me back to the point i was trying to make about god

2018-09-20 06:20:59 UTC  

abstracting about something past our perceptual reality is essentially aesthetic

2018-09-20 06:21:04 UTC  

its liek saying

2018-09-20 06:21:12 UTC  

how ami decorating the foundation of my house

2018-09-20 06:21:25 UTC  

well fuck nobodies gonna see that shit cuz its underground

2018-09-20 06:21:32 UTC  

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 06:21:46 UTC  

and who cares if ur foundations painted red or blue

2018-09-20 06:21:56 UTC  

if you cant even see it

2018-09-20 06:22:03 UTC  

Part of a classical liberal arts education is a study of aesthetics

2018-09-20 06:22:07 UTC  

also makes trying to paint it really fucking dumb

2018-09-20 06:22:13 UTC  

yes but in tangible ways

2018-09-20 06:22:20 UTC  

hence the art example i gave earlier

2018-09-20 06:22:49 UTC  

lol and dont get me wrong im not saying aesthetics is useless in a pragmatic way

2018-09-20 06:23:00 UTC  

i mean fuck im a musician lol

2018-09-20 06:23:05 UTC  

Same

2018-09-20 06:23:19 UTC  

so maybe that makes me biased saying its not useless

2018-09-20 06:23:43 UTC  

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

2018-09-20 06:24:31 UTC  

Sigh.

2018-09-20 06:25:17 UTC  

Back to the main topic.

2018-09-20 06:25:45 UTC  

Who wants us to move to this authoritarian liberal paradigm?

2018-09-20 06:26:12 UTC  

What is pushing us towards it and to what end?

2018-09-20 06:26:13 UTC  

Resistance to tyrants is obedience to God

2018-09-20 06:26:36 UTC  

And how practical is it to avoid?

2018-09-20 06:29:35 UTC  

You can't control the world, you can just control yourself

2018-09-20 06:29:51 UTC  

Sounds like a cop out.

2018-09-20 06:30:11 UTC  

You can fight back

2018-09-20 06:30:25 UTC  

Obviously people are changing the world at an alarming rate.

2018-09-20 06:30:39 UTC  

Yeah, rich people

2018-09-20 06:30:54 UTC  

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

2018-09-20 06:31:46 UTC  

You win by being informed, and informing others

2018-09-20 06:31:54 UTC  

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

2018-09-20 06:33:10 UTC  

there's only one cure for progressiveism

2018-09-20 06:33:15 UTC  

essentialism

2018-09-20 06:33:16 UTC  

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