Intelligence Attractive ? You must be crazy, much better simple (especially girls) as simple as possible, no mind at all, essentially dead, even better, nothing is my friend…
Kill Intelligence.
Now, go on and read the following, you will be under the dictatorship of my free will forcing you to put the words and ideas together as I chose in your mind, I will control your mind and the content of your thought for a few minutes, abide, be my slave.
Economy Misunderstood
I am a bit like those ex-christians that believed, all of their lives in a kind of religion, a kind of objective, external reality, rules and models of reality shared and believed by everyone, or most, or anyways some kind of objective truth, rules that we should abide to, an aggregation and serialization of results (just like in religions, be good and you will be rewarded, etc.), but then discover it was all a lie, a huge deception, there is nothing only crap in people, outside of people and everywhere, no god exists, no nothing, the world is totally meaningless, has nothing to say to us and we have nothing to say to it, there is nothing that has to be communicated to us, no metaphysical or spritual truth, no beauty, no value, a total void, zero, empty, undefined, barren, boring, no need for any communication, you simply live, life is a bitch, eat drink and be merry and then you die, end of story.
Only in my case I kind of believed in the Economy, the system, it progresses, Capitalism goes forward, it is for the better good, it defeated Communism, etc. Nothing further from the truth, no religion has ever been more false than this one.
Economy only exists in terms of people interacting and mostly fighting, it is a constantly unstable system and will be unstable forever, there is no aggregate value being produced, no lasting result only power struggles, some win, some lose, always changing and never really producing lasting collective results. Except in the form of technical advancements that optimize many processes and imply less labor needed, no matter what, this is probably the only real collective aggregated value being produce. We are producing “the end of labor” and “the end of labor needed” more than anything else, and this is in fact the great deception of Economy, as all of the economists want yuo to believe that it has rules that favor “society” or that well run economies genertte “wealth for everyone and jobs” etc.
They want you to believe that there are structural and objective advances by an economic system applying competition, innovation, productivity. But this is the lie, this ideology just serves to concentrate money and power in fewer and fewer hands, and no economists will ever tell you the truth: the modern economy is only producing one product really well and really fast, the end of labor, the elimination of labor, the end of the need of people in general for them to do anything at all. The modern economy is generating leisure time by the boatloads, is eliminating the need of people in all endeavors, and ever more and ever faster by optimizations, technical advances, software, robots, internet, globalization having factories anywhere in the world being able to export to anywhere else etc.
Economy exists only in terms of exchanges and interactions between people, if you are not interacting and exchanging then the economy slows down or halts, the process slows down, fewer and fewer people can earn money and live and “work” (which is the exchange), in a sense, the interactions, transactions and exchanges must be forced, or are forced sometimes by fundamental necessities (but minimally in this case as this is the primary sector of the economy - agriculture). The economy doesn’t really produce “products”, it produces transactions between people, interactions between people and imaginary values of mostly placeholders (ipads, movies, education, you name it) that serve as an excuse to interact. But this interaction and exchange between people is always simply a fight, a status challenge, what is exchanged is simply an excuse for the interaction, what is exchanged often has no value, only a temporary invented value that serves the purpose of being an excuse and placeholer for an exchange and interaction between people, so that they can get “the money flowing”, the process going, constantly going, constantly exchanging.
But we have a strange short circuit happening today: on one hand the placeholders and excuses - objects of interaction are evaporating into the abstract world of information, a combination of bits that can easily be transfered anywhere at any price and mostly for free (the internet and all kinds of “Information Products” (music, video, tv shows, books, blogs, forums) as we now live in the “Information Economy”), but this free information doesn’t really imply much exchange in real money anymore. But the information generated, in free form mostly is increasing ever more, thanks to the Technological Economy creating EXCESS CAPACITY, in the form of technical advances making this exchange cost less and less and also by all the free “hobby factories” generating this information for free by free labor (everyone generating their own information so easily, blog, videos, you name it).
But there is a reason why it seems that the future items of exchange are destined to evaporate into the abstract, light weight material of bits, as opposed to heavy real products like cars and boats and houses: because it is very easy to generate these “products”, they cost almost nothing, there are very few inhibitions and interdictions to their flow across the world and mostly the energy needed to produce them and transfer them is infinitely smaller that the energy needed to produce cars, houses, boats, real products based on a real material world.
But if you want to create “Jobs” you better get people building real heavy things like Skyscrapers, Rockets to Mars, etc.
So just this development makes it seem as if we are headed towards an abstract virtual world, a virtual reality where only the information exchanges count, where emotions and reactions are all tied into how we react and interact with this information, and each information reflecting a person behind it and having varying degrees of emotional interaction with the information and person behind it. It only takes a few steps to go from here to a modifed mind, modifying the neural networks of brains and them interacting in any new way.
People sometimes say that they believe that “there is more to reality, the world, life than meets the eye”: No it is the other way around, there is not even that that meets the eye, not even that exists or is reality, reality and life is less than what meets the eye, is essentially nothing at all, hence the justification to invent modified minds and invent and lie and create any reality, world or anything you like: it is all fake and a lie anyways, there is absolutely nothing at all, no necessities, no obligations, no interdictions or inhibitions (although we are full of subtle interdictions and inhibitions, the greatest inhibition being the “suspension of belief” in the form of the mental variable C, which means the degree to which you are convinced something is real, and this is usually higher than 0 and less that 100, so normal reality would be about 80, you are convinced by 80 % that your reality is “real”, but by 10 % that a fake reality is “real”: but a totally fake and made up reality can be assigned a C of 95 or 100 if you are good enough at it, hence, you demonstrate that there is nothing outside of what you create for as reality).
By the way, I could write about how “Love” better understood as “Infatuation” could be essentially much more pornographic and dirty than sex: Infatuation is much more involving, some forms of infatuation can get quite extreme and totalizing and emotional. Sex, even the most intense could effectively imply much less emotional involvement,is mechnical, but anyways…
Now, go on San Jose Mommy, let your little lucy and bobby copy all this for their homework, the teacher will give them an A and a GOLD star, let them play outside in the backyard, go on mommy, let them find some mental contraption representing a new mind universe interaction, here is a new one, they can try to figure it out, they can run around together in the backyard, imagining and playing with all of this, oh, what fun:

Wow, who knows what that is. It must be a very complex block diagram where emotions are converted into sensory information, the organization of reality in those minds must be so different from anything we can even come close to thinking, there is a feeling to thought generator or something like that, mutliple memories, 20 dimensional time coordinates, who knows what else…
Quo vadis ? baby …
