What if you can’t afford to wait till the empires naturally collapse?
What do you do when you’re busy with the now?
I’d say the solution is, above anything else, to remain aware. Know your self. Know how your mind works. Know how dopamine and endorphins act in your brain. Know what part of you wants to be lied to. Know how politicians work to keep you constantly on edge, always paranoid, always afraid. Know why you choose to adhere to comforting lies rather than to an unquenchable lust for truth. Know how to be always in control of yourself, your acts, your thoughts, your beliefs.
In this way you become almost impervious to lies, so even if you live surrounded by them, you’ll live and die as a clarvoyant, not as a sheep, not as another born victim.
Chip away at the empire of lies by exposing them every chance you get.
Never let these miserably, brainwashed minions forget the lies they fell for.
I’ve dedicated myself to exposing linguistic corruptions, like using words/symbols to disconnect rather than connect with phenomena - using language to ‘muddy the water,’ rather than clarify it.
Like the concept of ‘free-will’ or ‘morality/ethics’…or ‘god.’
Transsexualism is a consequence of this method.
The detachment of biological concepts, such as man/woman from the physical…converting them to abstract, ideological…which can then be manipulated.
Anchoring concepts to the real world, using words, prevents these fuckers from redefining them to suit their purposes.
It’s a War Like No Other, and this parasite uses language as its weapons…is it feminine, subversive…psychological warfare.
Know Thyself is a prerequisite.
You also become immune to their magical use of language once you understand what language is.
You become immune to the bullshyte Magian, messianic charlatans, like Iakov and his VO crap, or Ollie and his ‘Self-Lightening’… or that shit about no free-will.
It’s all based on how they redefine words, by disconnecting them from actions; perceptible, independently verifiable actions.
For example…if you want to give the term ‘strength’ the ‘free-will’ treatment then you define strength in a way that no mortal being can ever perform…then you tell them they are without any strength and that strength is an illusion…
You tell them all are equally weak, because none of them can ever match the definition you’ve adopted.
You dishearten them…preparing them for submission.
You can do the same with any descriptive term…
All you need is to tap into their feebleness, their anxieties…their deepest desires.
Becoming impervious to their lies, their magical spells, begins with know thyself, which must include language, and an understanding of its origins and utilities.
You disarm them when you know.
The ideal, or rather, advisable thing to do is not live like an animal when you are a man. An animal life can’t fit a man, a human life can’t fit an animal. The reaction against animalistic (herd) behavior invariably leads man to hate life and hate himself when he’s not guided by reason, by understanding. So the usual response to counterbalance manipulation by politicians is religious or utopian thinking. “One day, all this will be over”. But this “one day” never comes. And it doesn’t matter for the ones alive now whether a utopian world could ever come into being. We won’t be alive to see it.
We must understand we, as flesh and blood beings, are an entirely different thing from the ideas in our heads. We must own our minds, and then our own ideas.
To quote myself:
“For countless, millions and millions of years, reflection of any kind, from the most simplistic to the ramblings of an Einstein, was entirely absent on earth. Reflection requires a thinking mind, thinking in the human sense of the term, not as merely animalistic reaction to externalities. Darkness. The animal kingdom is surrounded by, and forever encapsulated by darkness. The instinct rules, and this instinct is not good and is not bad, it merely serves as a blind, a mechanical reproduction tool. The animal exists merely to reproduce himself ad eternum, its existence has no “purpose”, not in the sense a human being would employ this term. An animal knows nothing about existence, God, finality, will to power, democracy, whatever concept we waste so much time and effort in understanding. It has no use for any of our concepts, which is the same as saying that they don’t exist for them, entirely. Now, if concepts can exist thus only dependent of whatever use humans find for them, it’s clear that humans can adapt them, use them, deconstruct them, abolish them, get altogether rid of them, at will. All concepts exist within the boundaries of our minds, of my mind. All of them, as I interpret them, disappear with me the moment I die. And all of them can be adequately used, by me, to further whatever my “agenda” is, even not caring a damn about democracy, “the needs of the people”, I can employ the concept of democracy to my own advantage, believing in the idea itself is not relevant, I can learn to make a practical use of it, and so convincingly that many others, most others, will not only believe I’m sincere, but adopt my interpretation of democracy as their own, using it as another tool for the implementation of their own egoism. And in this process, not a single one is ignorant, deep down, of the fact that “democracy” doesn’t exist nor can exist.
Same reasoning applies to God, love, freedom, socialism, help yourself.”
Yes, understanding of language is vital. It’s through the wise manipulation and distortion of words that domination is secured, because humans are highly impressed by grandiloquent words. Politicians and religious leaders of all types know this very well. Most of the times, one leader is exactly the same, as manipulative, as bigoted as any other, he just finds a way yo choose the exact words that will enrapture his followers or believers. Which explains, for instance, how the Bible can be used by both leftists and rightists. Both sides can find there a lot of passages to fit into their own narratives. You just need to choose the right Bible verse and interpret it according to what your audience wants to hear. Thus you can use the Bible to justify genocide or unconditional love for all creatures.
This means obviously that we need to educate ourselves continually. We need to understand perfectly well the language employed by those who want to dominate, to prey on us. For it’s to simple and all too human to be entranced by carefully chosen words, aimed at comforting or deceiving us, not at enlightening our minds.
This is the part that confuses the midwits and dimwits…Janes insight.
An emergent self-consciousness confuses its own representations of the real, for the real itself.
This is where language becomes magical…and is used nihilistically to represent mental abstractions that exist nowhere but in their minds.
Alternate world populated by ideal men…the Platonic cave is the human skull…and the shadows are its own abstractions…represented by words/symbols
-Actually globalized economy is a very commonly used term among leaderships and in politics in general. It’s not “hidden” in any way, everyone’s aware of it.
Economies have been globally linked for centuries.
-The fact that economies are linked does not mean that cultures have to be blended. They can’t, bending cultures means erasing much of their attributes, as there are many direct cultural contradictions. Morally, aesthetically, etc.
-So Putin and NATO are actually cooperating toward a shared goal? Or do you see a higher, invisible hand that uses this conflict to forge more global unity? Ive heard that idea before, but Ive not seen the logic behind it demonstrated.
The world seemed well underway towards globalization until recent decades. Now we are seeing increasing rifts between various civilizations, cultures, value systems. How do you see this resolved?
Whether top figures cooperate is insignificant. Even if they don’t their subordinates are sacrificed in conflict and labor. The top figures are protected and lavished. Nationalism. Globalism. Capitalism. Socialism. Communism. All the same.
I don’t. I see the human species squabbling until extinction or replacement.
Currently there’s a competition taking place between an American world order under the very worst segments of economic capitalism and a Chinese world order that is a state communist/socialist one, we’re entering a convergence of global conflict which will ultimately decide which system of the two will replace the other. Ultimately there’s probably a global conflict of war brewing which will converge into World War III at some point.
To defeat China the United States has to take Russia out of the equation first which is why we have the Ukrainian proxy war. This is also why Russia, China, North Korea, and Iran are working more closely together, they all know they’re eventual targets in this epic global showdown. It will be very interesting to watch who’s side India and the majority of the Middle East like Saudi Arabia for instance will choose once the battle lines are more officially pronounced.
It’s the species. Not capitalism, not socialism, not communism.
Regardless what socioeconomic system emerges there is always a protected peak of power which exploits the remainder of the populace. That’s what you are fighting. The species and its arrangements. You will lose. You are losing.
If you got rid of all hierarchy tomorrow you would still have the eventual annihilation or extinction of the species. Whether it be nuclear fallout, food stock chain breaking down leading to mass starvation, or collapse of society leading to violent infighting overnight.
Also, if you got rid of hierarchy overnight it would only take weeks or months until a new hierarchy asserts itself. Humanity unfortunately works this way.
Alright, you view every system as evil or extremely problematic.
Out of all three systems which one is worst of the three? Capitalism, socialism, or communism?
For me in the pragmatic approach I choose communism. I understand no government organization is perfect and there are problems with any system, but for me when I see those problems I see them as things that can be worked out overtime in coming up with organized solutions.
I know the nihilism position is that everything is what it is and there are no solutions to anything where all there is the inevitable doom circling the drain of the void. Something to that effect, but I refuse to believe that, instead I try to seek out constructive solutions to problems.
…is intended as a catalyst to stimulate thought and discussion beyond surface-level systems.
If the human brain is exercised it can grow. If people consider these ideas and embrace logic while using their brains genuine change can occur. It could be an evolutionary step in the species. A conscious, natural one, without implanting a chip to force desired results. I actually discussed this previously here:
Unfortunately these tendencies may be too deeply ingrained in the species. It has largely to do with the actual physical structure of the human brain. There are more connections running from the lower brain to the higher brain; the lower brain still has more influence over higher cognitive processes. The change needed, on the scale needed, may be impractical.
Humans are animals, mammals, fighting and competing amongst themselves like any other animal. Eventually they will go extinct. Thus Elon’s obsession with Mars, and the pursuit to enrich the manufacturing corp in the likely futile process.
