Sabina's Cliffnotes on the Human Condition.

[Sabina]

Stupidity has always been its own burden, and intelligence a reward.

There could be no clearer justice than all facing the consequences of their own qualities.

What we are is what we deserve.

This alone makes any corrective idealism that nihilistically promotes escapisms from our determined pasts and the liberal’s cry against injustice, an absurdity.

We can’t change the world, only our response to it.
Control is about setting the stage, and letting things happen in accordance with probabilities.
We have no absolute control as we deny absolutes altogether, but we have a mind that can deduce probabilities better than the average.

We let reality validate our effectiveness or our lack thereof, of all our re/Actions. And the degree of one’s self-awareness is in direct proportion to what extent one is able to affirm their past that defines them.

We are our past.

[Sabina]

We live in a culture that urges us to forget the past, to overcome it, to dismiss it as irrelevant.
The family is such a connective artery to our genetic past.
We also witness this reconnection in how race and sex and any natural phenomenon, not directly linked to systemic stability and individual comfort, are dismissed or debased.

In this age, as I see all around me, sex itself is becoming a matter of personal choice, further disconnecting the individual from nature and offering him the delusion of free-will, when the entire methodology is meant to leave him vulnerable to current exploitation and vulnerable to trends and fashions.

If there is disillusionment then it can be understood as this disconnection form historical contexts, where narratives and official stories are offered to replace it.
The slow degradation of tradition is such a severing…just as is the death of God, which was a source of identification for the masses who could not think beyond a certain level and needed a fast, comforting, self-identifying source.

Experience can be thought of as one’s personal history and how this determines his choices and expectations.
But this is the only one permitted, because it can be controlled, whereas the immutable past can neither be changed nor neglected…but it can be dismissed and forgotten.

Erase an individual’s heritage, detach him form his bloodlines and sexuality, as these have been determined by an past, and we have fabricated a tabula rasa: an artificial clean slate that can be written upon by any charlatan and clever little mind that comes along.

Instead what we have is the current rise of “Immediacy.”
Immediate gratification, immediate expectations, immediate identifications.
This is what I would call shallow.
This obsession with living in the present, or overcoming the past, is this attempt to detach one from his anchoring.

The past is not overcome it is only dealt with and built upon.
Not the self-serving, self-flattering version, but the one which takes courage and introspection and honesty to cope with.

To know thyself is to know this past as intimately and deeply as we possibly can; it is to accept it, good and bad, flattering and unflattering, to, at least, offer ourselves the option of coming to terms with it before we die, or doing something about it while still alive.

How many feel like this anymore…

[Sabina]

Typically 21st century, in the west.

When something negative, hurtful, insulting, is presented as a possibility for explaining the world, demand evidence, explore the other’s motives, his emotional states, his family, and sexual, background.
Try to find something to dismiss him as a credible voice.

Demand stringent philosophical discourse, evidence beyond doubt, if possible absolute facts, then sit back content that you destroyed them, or, at the very least, that you provided sufficient doubt to disregard anything he says.
Then the mocking begins.
You know, that teenage, womanly, jaded, cynicism, using words to cover reality rather than bring it into the light?
Yeah, that one.

But if something positive, loving, compassionate, in regards to you, is offered as a hypothesis, if it flatters and makes you feel good, and if it supports everything your parents and peers think is truth, then never question, never get into the weakness, the underlying psychology, the motives, guiding this assessment.
Be more lax with your criteria, more forgiving with your not so discriminating judgments.
Emote.
Surrender to the sensations of community support.
Flirt, socialize, pretend you are thinking when you drop a few words you found on google search.

Satyr, I see you…

@tentative

Satyr, I see you…

Is he the only one?..give me a break; unless you think there is such a thing as originality. We all have our influences and reworking them and shadowboxing with them is how we all advance.
Enough of this. I am better than him; deal with my ideas.

[Sabina]

Beauty is the interpretation of order, the appearance of relative symmetry resisting fragmentation and so exhibiting a health, power. From a sexual perspective it is an indication of procreative potential - genetic health. No man can be whatever he chooses…as the past determines his limitations, his potentials and his prospects.
Reinventing oneself is futile, when one’s limits have already been decided.
The only thing maneouvre is, hiding parts of oneself and accentuating others…if done long enough, one believes in one’s own pretense.

[Sabina]

The Dark Ages are back.
Endless “what if?” scenarios to do away with reality and cast the imagination into the wind where all is possible because nothing is hindered by the world as it is.
“What if all were equal and nobody suffered?”
“What if up were down and down were up?”
“What if man were immortal?”
“What if Love were all?”
“What if there are dimensions where man is God?”
The world dismissed using hypotheticals that are totally detached from it.
Everything that troubles done away with by evoking the unknown…the infinite possibilities of the yet to be.

[Sabina]

What is nobility?

I have been asking this question on the forum here.

What does it mean to dominate? What is the nature of a nobleman’s lust?

By dignity we mean a self-control, a rational dominance over instincts, an adherence to an ideal that wants to rise above the trash and the primal debauchery, not to deny it but to harness it to a focused will, an innate desire to not want to make of one’s self a spectacle of social and cultural decadence, to seize cotnrol over one’s life and to accept the consequences for even the parts that escaped your grasp. To be noble.

And so the sum of any human is their genetic makeup… There can be no learning, just dodging around until they believe in their own pretense. Soooo… is Sabina who she pretends to be? Is the stripping away of all pretense another dodge that remains just another pretense?

And of course, you are absolutely positive that you know and undertand reality, right? I mean, you haven’t just created your own version of it (pretense), you are a true seer?

And you assume that you are noble and anyone who might have a different viewpoint isn’t noble?

[Mr_Reasonable]

Sometimes Sabina, what happens when one is dominated, actually this is pretty funny…let me think of a way to put it…

I used to say when I was a kid that the first step to controlling someone is to let them think they’re superior or in control themselves. Then you just dance around and do as you please while their stroking their own ego.

If you look closely, and you wait long enough, people will start doing that to you here. It’s because you’re making tons of threads where you’re basically plagiarizing the guys as KTS and not only is it boring an unoriginal, but it’s also a bunch of nonsense that you can only seem to defend by obfuscation. Your need for flowery and charged language illuminates a lack of substance in your thought. He who types the most words and tires out his enemy isn’t necessarily the winner. You should consider not making such a fool of yourself. You’re like a little kid trying to explain to engineers how an engine works. Except you don’t understand them. But you think they don’t understand, but they do. They just don’t wanna do your homework for you and they don’t really care if you have a correct view or if you live a good life because of it.

I’ll leave you to think about those truths.

What we are is what we deserve.

That’s such a pile. All kinds of things are undeserved, good and bad.

Also corrective morality is a good thing, and ideals are often good things.

This is my take.

As opposed to when. Certainly not the 20th Century. Criticism, negativity, anger, disspointment with the West itself by members of the West are much higher than in the 20th Century.

Demand stringent philosophical discourse, evidence beyond doubt, if possible absolute facts, then sit back content that you destroyed them, or, at the very least, that you provided sufficient doubt to disregard anything he says.

This pattern of crap certainly does go on, and it is used to immediately shut down expression, exploration and even the obvious. Philosophy has degenerated to amateur science.

Then the mocking begins.

Yeah, that one.

Which you are an exception to…I guess? Or are you in drag here?

And it’s true mocking does not come from men. They are more open to women to ideas that are not supported immediately by proof. Though not on the planet I live on.

Satyr in drag. I think that’s what it is.

It’s like he finds the dumbest fucks on earth and literally gives them a card to read and sends em here. Fucking weird man.

[Moreno]

@Sabina

We live in a culture that urges us to forget the past, to overcome it, to dismiss it as irrelevant.

I see two trends. One to explore the past more - especially one’s individual past. And then one to stay with Surfaces both temporal and spatial. But there is more opportunity to really dive into the past than there was 50 years ago. Then it was a real taboo, except in psychoanalysis.

The slow degradation of tradition is such a severing…just as is the death of God, which was a source of identification for the masses who could not think beyond a certain level and needed a fast, comforting, self-identifying source.

Instead what we have is the current rise of “Immediacy.”

I Think distraction is the zeitgeist, yes.

The past is not overcome it is only dealt with and built upon.
Not the self-serving, self-flattering version, but the one which takes courage and introspection and honesty to cope with.

To know thyself is to know this past as intimately and deeply as we possibly can; it is to accept it, good and bad, flattering and unflattering, to, at least, offer ourselves the option of coming to terms with it before we die, or doing something about it while still alive.

I agree, I Think this is one of the only true forms of heroism, in fact.

I am getting the feeling I don’t know what you would do if you did not have someone to smear so much about… get over this obsession, man. Stop clutching at the past! and at him!
Let him go for god’s sake!! This is my thread.
For someone who accuses me of writing offensive philosophy, I demand that you mind your language and treat me with respect and not call me a dumb f. If you just want to ramble all over the place, its so obvious that you want to, then do so. Hopefully you’ll have something substantial to say the next time you are here, than a jaded remark on someone’s long gone personality than my ideas.

[Sabina]

@Joe Schmoe

If all is interconnected in this world, then wishing away one thing is to wish away your own existence and that’s pure self-hatred.
The disposition which is genetically determined in the past leading to such an inclination to correct, change “away” something makes its own self, self-deserving only of death and decadence.
Idealisms can only be a guiding direction.

All and any learning is determined by a ceiling limit, a potential that is definitely genetically determined.

I haven’t seen you challenge me on my take of reality. Maybe you enjoy speaking in riddles and hints only.

Creation is an ongoing process. Every interpretation of reality is our will to power.

And so why do you think this has happened? What/who is attributing to this? The Roots - where does it take you?
