Financial Bondage as Attention Bondage; Debt as Idolization
All financial systems are applied value, to both ideas and material means, by degree of those who direct financial processes in accords to the desires and whims of the masses.
What is deemed as valuable is reducible in nature to ‘assertions of value’ by those who determine production of value itself, these assertions are given power and influency by the directed and contained attention of the masses that is required for consumption of said value. Through cultural conditioning, status, base consumptiondesires and advertisement the conditioning of value occurs through a repetition of the claim that ‘x is valuable’ therefore ‘x must be consumed’.
Value dynamics are thus reducible to repetitive assertions that value is present in a thing or things.
What is given value is numbered, through the act of finance and monetization, according to the applied value, grounded in repetitive assertions of value, thus classes are formed in accordance to the ability to afford and consume what is given value.
From this hiearchical fragmentation of human attention takes places as one thing is deemed more valuable than another.
By degree all financial classes, and their corresponding political systems, are a direct result of the containment and direction of the attention of the masses. The assertion of value therefore repeats into the human attention span of the masses resulting in a hiearchy of who can gain what is asserted as valuble thereby resulting in a resonant fragmention of peoples into social, cultural, political and familial groups that inherently compete for the aquisition of the valued, so the be percieved as valuable, resulting in a sense of fragmentation between peoples.
This value, and the value of deriving what is valued, is reducible to the act of attention by which value is constructed by degree of what contains and directs the attention.
In these furthe respects attention is what derives value and the fundamental currency of currency is attention itself. Any corresponding indebtness, and financial hardship, reveals itself as a debt of attention in four degrees:
-
The debt of managing financial resources to pay the debt.
-
The debt of the value behind the debt as the debt of attention towards the value behind it.
-
The debt towards time management of the future towards the debt by which attention towards the future is transformed according to the debt.
-
The attention debt towards the debt itself.
In these regards the value given attention to, and the derivation of the value of a thing from attention, is inherently an act of attention as value from which the application of debt inherently contains the attention in one respect, through perceived value, while dually attention is placed on the judgment process of value application thus resulting in the attention being in debt to the perception of value of a thing rather than the thing itself.
In these respects value inversely becomes an application of idolization as the value thing is elevated and quantitized, through number as financial resources for it, and an inherent assymetry occurs in perception thus further elevating the debt itself to a pivotal point by which reality is further measured and interacted with.
In these respects debt is the harvesting of human attention and through said harvesting power structures are maintained, indirectly, through the fragmentation of attention, directly, through the elevation of a power hieararchy by those who control the debt. The maintainence of a power structure is the maintainanence of attention debt dynamics.
The modern world, by degree, is an attention production mechanism where attention is formed, fitted and reproduced according to strict standards of consumerism efficiency. Where the production invokes attention debt on the individual, in capitalism, and attention debt on the group, in communism, each is an inverse application of attention debt production where the debt is the construct itself that applies limits and boundaries to what and how attention is directed, by whom it is directed, and the form by which how it is directed.
