Thoughts, Observations and Questions.

i stopped calling anyone a ‘narcissist’ with pejorative connotations a long time ago, due to a moment of insight that suddenly seized me, at which point i shouted ‘eureka’; the measure of the excessiveness of someone’s pride, or vanity, or grandiosity, is not something that can be assessed by another person. if such an attempt is made, all that will be revealed is the criticizer’s vulnerability to the threat of his own shortcomings by comparison. the very notion of narcissism, whether clinal (as in the DSM) or out of some philosophical narrative, springs directly from resentment and in some cases ressentiment. and here’s why.

that someone appears excessive in the above things, isn’t an indication of how he truly feels about himself. it may be that to you he appears obnoxious, arrogant, what have you, but what if that person, while maybe feeling superior to you, still isn’t satisfied with himself? ‘ah’, you say. i think i see where this is going.

joe is an awesome athlete, and quite proud of his talents. so much so that he would not hesitate to say ‘i’m better than you’… but what we don’t know about joe is that he, himself, thinks he could be better, could improve, and that by comparison to still others (but not you), he thinks he’s woefully inferior.

now which is any evidence of the true measure of joe’s vanity and/or pride here? how we feel when we resent the fact that he thinks he’s better than us, or how joe feels when he examines himself and realizes his disatisfaction with himself and desire to improve?

see what just happened there? to call someone’s pride and vanity excessive can only mean ‘we are offended by his confidence’. it cannot mean we’ve identified some unjustified and over exaggerated sense of importance or value in joe’s mind. joe really becomes quite modest when he is critical of himself. it’s only compared to you that he is better… something you resent. and he shall not be aware of his superiority, for that would be narcissistic and unfair!

the doctrine of narcissism, along with being so many obscure and ambiguous narratives in clinical psychology, is nothing more than a blanket-statement to categorize anyone who tries to distance himself from the herd. the same goes for that pseudo-diagnosis ‘sociopath’. sociopathology is the resentment doctrine of narcissism taken to the fifth power. it’s rests fundamentally on the grey area between organic disease and ‘mental disorder’. because psychologists can’t argue on a scientific level that an alleged organic condition of sociopathology is a trait that can’t promote the ‘fitness level’ in strictly biological terms, they resort to moralizing… and call it a ‘mental disorder’.

be weary of anyone who calls you a narcissist, and remind them that despite your superiority to them, there is always more room for improvement in yourself. instead, look for those who are fellow narcissists… exceptional people with extraordinary talents, and are certain enough of themselves to not even notice the arrogance of others. not because they don’t notice, but because they can’t notice, on account of them not being able to feel threatened or resentful of someone else.

few things are more adorable then two modest narcissists working together to improve themselves even more.

it would really come down to this; if you can say you’ve found someone who genuinely feels that they have no room for improvement, then you can say you’ve found a narcissist. good luck with that. see even the most clearly undeserving of the vanity they have - [insert any Crap artist, for instance] - still are not completely satisfied with themselves and whether secretly or not, are not as great as they really want to be.

and if there is nothing worth the merit of one’s pride, which we find excessive, what exactly is the problem? we’ve merely found a fake narcissist, and this is even worse! it is an insult to the true narcissist!

this plate of scrammbled eggs is a perfect opportunity to show you how easy it is to get everything wrong when you attempt to do philosophy.

for any direction, left, right, up, or down, all issues come eventually down to morality. so if there is something about the ‘left in the west’ to be criticized, it would need to be a problem that the right, up, and down didn’t also possess. and since the right, up and down also experiences the problem of morality, such a statement can only mean ‘that morality is not like this one, and therefore it is wrong.’ and how is this done? by presuming that morality has different sources, when in fact, it does not.

the next step would be to try and argue that morality is derived from religious doctrine. this, too, is false. morality is a biologically evolved ‘mechanism’, and consists of a combination of behavioral tendencies that have been inherited because they’ve proven to increase the fitness level of the group. the entire range of human behavior, from compassion to violence, has served in some way to be conducive to this, or else it wouldn’t have evolved and would not be present in the spectrum of human behavior.

what he’s done is isolated a small set of such behaviors, called attention to the fact that they are taught to be virtuous by [insert some religion], and forgotten that such behaviors do not have their origins in the teaching of [insert some religion]. the [insert some religion] only proselytizes set x of human behaviors, claiming they wouldn’t exist without [insert god of some religion] creating them.

so this gentleman first tries to vilify the ‘left’ by saying they’re ‘only about morality’, when in fact wherever he’s from is ‘only about morality’ as well. second, he tries to delineate something specific about moral behavior down to a specific religion (which he vilifes, as well), calling it responsible for the virtues he is criticizing, without realizing that those virtues are held in high regard by any practicing culture, be they left, right, up or down, simply because they are ‘intrinsic’ to human behavior.

so for example, he might say ‘compassion practiced by christians or marxists is bullshit, while compassion practiced by pagans is not.’

it’s neither here nor there if a specific culture believes their virtues are ordained by god. so one wouldn’t say ‘culture x is wrong because they believe their compassion is ordained by god’. one would have to say this particular kind of compassion is in question, and proceed their argument from there. and let me save you the trouble of trying to do this and just say; you won’t be able to do that, either.

the rabid foaming at the mind continues:

this is not philosophy… well i mean it is because it’s got all the necessary informal fallacies to be called such… but it’s more of a hyperbolic rant expressing that beautiful existential plummet into frustration and despair. and i say it is beautiful because it certainly is; it is one more exhibit i would present to the court of the crimson king to prove that man is, indeed, a wonderful mistake. and i do this as an indifferent artist who might shake his finger at the gods and shout ‘look what you’ve done to this poor creature!’ for it to even be possible that someone become so entrenched in such a mental abyss of confusion and rage, and have to live it for decades, well… that’s quite the grievance to be lodged against the gods.

in five hundred years, every detail of that misanthropic study above, everything thought to be a great danger to humanity, to the quality of life and integrity… every emergency declared to be a threat to the dignity of man, will be so long gone as to not even be mentioned in history books anymore. if one could look back upon the continuum of that species man and find that meager seventy+ years of that single life that spent its time worrying about everything in a nervous and raging fervor, you’d not have enough time to blink your eye before it was over.

if you feel that you might be such a life, i would direct you toward the blue light, and hope that you might find it before it’s too late.

your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to improve widget production, lower child mortality rates and reduce military expenditures:

now you might claim you don’t want to do this, but you really do. deep down you really do. you just don’t know where to start, that’s all. so, we will be conducting a series of aptitude tests to determine the strengths and weakness of each ILP member, who will then be assigned to their respective positions to perform the necessary tasks to reach our goal.

the guy who wears a dead rat on his head (trump) better fire mueller before mueller brings the whole cesspool down in a blaze of glory, wouldn’t ya think? by the time mueller gets done, that worthless fuck’s whole cabinet is gonna be indicted and on their way to prison. but did it really take the country this long to realize what a despicable piece of human waste was put in the white house? do they not see all the secret handshakes going on? unbelievable.

the house judiciary committee is drilling the fuck out of the acting AG at this very moment. i’ve never seen a guy squirm so much in my life. he evades the questions, then drags out ambiguous answers hoping to run the clock down. as if we don’t know what he’s doing.

nah. this isn’t a witch hunt. a witch hunt would be giving these scum bags too much credit. this is an extermination of a nest of cockroaches.

and why all the long, drawn out judicial formalities? why not just bring in a team of galleanists and be done with it? bada bing, bada… BOOM. no more cockroaches.

‘prolegomena to a critique of common core math’ -
the old lady (1rst edition without addendum)

vocaroo.com/i/s0rF5Qjk2ryP

she was still a deputy when i was there in 2013. i remember her from the grey unit solitary confinement block. the deputies rotated shifts every couple weeks, so i had seen her several times. but i can only recall one instance vividly. she was working third shift, and after showers she was in charge of cleaning-supply rounds. the cart is pushed un front of your cell door and through the tray slot you’re passed various cleaning supplies. on this particluar occassion i asked for the broom, and was given an old, frayed urine soaked straw broom. this wasn’t her fault though; it was the broom on the cart and she wasn’t in charge of stocking it. i remember this as clear as day; ‘come on, callahan, look at this broom, man. would you sweep your floor with this broom?’ she looks at me through the plexiglass window and shakes her head in agreement. she says ‘hold on, i’ll get another one’. i nod. she brings me back a brand new broom. ‘thanks callahan, you’re the boss’. she smiled. i don’t remember anything else of her other than her escorting me to the shower. you’d stand backward in front of the cell door and slip your wrists through the tray slot behind you. she’d cuff me, call control to open ‘hotel 16’ (H16), and walk me to the shower.

she musta made it to sgt. in the years to come, although i can’t imagine why a girl like her would take a job in that hell. if only i could have had a premonition… some clairvoyant glimpse into the future: you’ll be dead in four years, callahan. get the fuck out of here while you can.

i remember that white trash piece of shit, craig, too. he wasn’t from my block when i was in general population, but i saw him on the other yard a few times.

where they fucked up was allowing callahan to enter the block by herself. they aren’t supposed to do that, ever, but the place was run by incompetent staff and the administration didn’t give a shit about anything. not sure what the internal investigation turned up, but i’m sure a few strings were pulled and the admin got off the hook. just listen to that idiot redneck public safety official talk; ‘these are uh… uh… a difficult work environment at bayest.’

let’s look at that again.

‘these are uh…uh…a difficult work environment at bayest.’ is that even proper english? what was the imbecile trying to say? ‘this is a difficult work environment, at best’? i dunno, i’m askin’ you.

there’s something very profound to be noted about the fact that the place where one is put for breaking rules, breaks countless rules itself (if you only knew). i call it that grand hipocrisy that forfeits any authority of the state. having experienced this first hand, it is not inappropriate that i call myself an anarchist. well that and other reasons… but that’s the big one. that’s a critical part of my personal philosopher’s ‘manifesto’. but don’t fuckin’ get me started on my prison stories. we’d be here all night.

crazy man. i can see her right now in my mind passing that broom through the tray slot as if it just happened.

lol cohen’s turned snitch on his porn star buddy trump who wanted all the sluts paid off so his wife wouldn’t find out? but why would that matter? trump’s wife is only in it for the money. these two clowns don’t ‘love’ each other. shirley they both know this… or is it just one of those things rich plastic people don’t talk about when they marry?

wait a minute i just realized something. this ridiculous circus scandal involves my president. MY president. this guy is supposed to be a shining example of honesty, truth and integrity, iddin’t he? i mean he’s the fuckin’ PRESIDENT, people.

look at cohen. know how you can tell the guys a piece of shit? his mouth. see how he has a natural frown when his face is relaxed? never trust a man with jowls unless he’s an italian gangster.

in other news, the barbie doll ivanka attacks the new green deal, stating that people want to ‘earn’ what they’re given (a shot at raising minimum wage). she followed the conservative text book script perfectly; distract the working classes from the fact that business owners are doing nothing themselves to ‘earn’ anything, and that exploited workers ought to be happy to always need more money… since that gives them the incentive to ‘better themselves’ and look forward to a raise.

but i wonder how familiar ivanka is with ‘earning’ anything. is she qualified to speak about ‘earning’?

Friend, ally, valued compatriot, there is a subtle definitional difference you may have overlooked: narcissism isn’t merely excessive pride so manifested as cockiness in a natural knack or talent wrought from disciplined diligence, but rather it’s the arrogance of pride in skill that’s not actually possessed.

As KidRock said, it ain’t bragging if you back it up.

But shitting on the chess board and claiming victory is a whole 'nother kind of animal.

A gorilla is cocky.
An ankle-biter dog is arrogant.

When you know your shit = cocky
When you don’t know you’re shit = arrogant

The definitional difference is subtle, but the actual difference is profound.

Good stuff! The author is quite perceptive. I want to highlight this:

[i]It is important to distinguish two basic forms of socialism:

  1. ‘Socialism from above’, Stalinism, Maoism, Castroism, Chavezism

and,

  1. ‘Socialism from below’, Marx, Lenin and Trotsky’s view[/i]

(Not sure Lenin should be included, but nevermind)

The first is dictated or forced socialism while the second evolves naturally.

The first is authoritarian and the second is democratic.

The first is Right and Red, the second is Left and Blue.

By their colors ye shall know them :wink:

bruh you have no idea. this chick is to philosophy what deep blue is to chess and diane sawyer is to journalism. met her nearly a decade ago at revleft.com when i was still a card carrying marxist. we ended up hooking up in the opposing ideologies forum, both of us banned from the regular forums; her for her assault on their sacred philosopher ‘that wind-bag hegel’, and me for expressing fascist sentiments. sentiments i still sorta have which prevent me from carrying my card any longer. i simply cannot believe the state will ever ‘wither away’ at the end stage of a revolution, or that a revolution can be sustained without any central party dictatorship. this is what characterized me as a totalitarian communist, which might as well mean i’m a fascist. the commies wouldn’t buy it and tried to beat me up… so i was like fuck ya’ll i’m an anarchist then, and i turned in my standard issued army green cuban revolutionary uniform and bought a mad max costume. and i’ve never been back since. what the fuck was i supposed to do? these people think a government will just spontaneously organize and hold it down while three quarters of the world is trying to destroy them? that’s why mao and stalin were necessary, hombre. that stateless state marx talks about is highly unlikely to ever happen.

what i’m saying is that lenin’s vanguard party is something i think will always be necessary… so that while indeed a revolution might be generated ‘from the bottom’, it won’t hold any ground without a central proletarian dictatorship quickly materializing. and if that’s the case, it no longer matters whether or not it comes from the top or bottom; it ends up becoming the same thing… at least until every country on the planet is part of it. as long as there is an enemy still prowling the earth, a central party has to be established to oversee the fight against the parasites of capitalism and imperialism still lurking about.

this whole stateless state won’t happen until the entire planet is revolutionized.

and this will take a loooong time. capitalism/comsumerism has dumbed everyone down so much it might take another century before humanity begins to grow up and the working classes pull their brainwashed heads out of their asses.

Well, do you advocate the top-down or bottom-up approach that she mentioned? Fascism is top-down and there’s nothing social about national socialism; it’s a complete misnomer.

The main difference is whether the state is controlled democratically by the people or controlled authoricratically by a small group of elites or just one guy.

It’s a function of prosperity and energy costs. If energy were free, then there is no justification for a monetary system (except to impoverish people in preservation of a class system). 100 years ago 100 lbs of sugar took 10 hours of labor to purchase with a median income. Today it’s 1 hour and in another century it will be 6 min and another century 36 seconds, etc (assuming linearity, but it’s more likely exponential). At what point does it become a waste of time to charge someone for the sugar? Money will be antiquated eventually and I think Marx saw that. There is no reason for a government if there is nothing to protect because of such abundance. Marx never intended that communism be enforced.

[i]Tony: You know what she says? This broad she’s from Russia, dirt poor. She had some kind of osocarma disease in her leg when she was nine. She says that nowhere else in the world do people expect to be happy except for here in this country, and still we’re not. And we got everything. And when we’re not, what do we do? We go to shrinks. For what, $6 or $7 a minute?

Melfi: There’s some truth to what she says. But should that be a source of shame? That when the desperate struggle for food and shelter is finally behind us we can turn our attention to other sources of pain and truth?

Tony: “Pain and truth.” Come on, I’m a fat fucking crook from New Jersey.[/i]

We are constantly finding new sources of pain and injustice to correct after old perils have been addressed.

So, according to Marx, the feudal capitalistic class structures eventually bring sufficient prosperity to cause people to crusade for more and more social reforms; therefore, capitalism inevitably leads to socialism and the prosperity wrought from the implementation of socialism then ushers in communism when a government is no longer required to fix stuff. This makes sense right?

You’re probably correct in the context of our current technological development, but I foresee Marxian communism as an inevitability.

You could be right, but we could at least have socialism in the mean time.

Oh, I could also add:

As the great Max Planck, himself the originator of the quantum theory in physics, has said, science makes progress funeral by funeral: the old are never converted by the new doctrines, they simply are replaced by a new generation.
[Science Makes Progress Funeral by Funeral – Quote Investigator®]
(Science Makes Progress Funeral by Funeral – Quote Investigator®)

It’s a matter of time.

A flu pandemic would speed it along. It’s sad, but I don’t have much sympathy for the arrogant. If they were reasonable, their death wouldn’t be a prerequisite of freedom.

this is an interesting angle, and much like my recently adopted strinerism i’d not call it my original position - which wasn’t yet radically misanthropic, libertine and nihilistic - but rather the last philosophical option available in this world, which has proven to be so banal it, and the people in it, cannot be taken seriously. one abandons the project to invest any effort in the humanities, and begins to see the world as something to be used and consumed. the irony here is that it is those who’ve taken this as their original position (i can smell them out) that so offend and disgust me, while those who have become the nihilist at the sight of this ignoble farce are the one’s i can tip my hat to. one has to earn their nihilism after years of carefully observing the world. it’s an accomplishment, not something one begins with or is given. finally the decadence movement begins to make sense; the baudelaires and rimbauds and de sades suddenly appear as sages. i only hope that they were not originally degenerates, but became so as the nihilist proper who ‘kicks what is already falling’ after having made a great effort to cooperate, to hold it up. one doesn’t earn the right to kick anything unless they’ve done their best to keep it from falling, first. my anarchism, egoism, and nihilism are therefore honorary titles. i’ve ascended to stirner… earned the right and privilege of this liberating force. if these words are not something that immediately strike you as autobiographical, familiar and prophetic, then unread them, for you have either already dropped the ball, or you’re not in the game.

Then what?

Reminds me of:

"That is why a person who might be enlightened (a bodhisattva) does not always present a kind of detached and indifferent attitude but is perfectly free to allow emotions [and] attachments. Why R.H. Blyth who was a great zen man wrote me once and said “How are you these days? As for me, I have abandoned satori (enlightenment) altogether and I’m trying to become as deeply attached as I can to as many people and things as possible.” - Alan Watts

It’s ok to play games if you know they are games :wink:

then you die… rinse, and repeat.

thanks for the ancient eastern wisdom, but i never put much stock in those philosophies. i’d take the zen if you gave me the samurai version, but buddhism in general is too passive and something i avoid. now i could get into some hinduism and would be willing to greet the sacred cow if you brought me to em.

Zen is nihilism minus the puppet.

here’s an angle on the situation.

drugs keep flooding over the border so let’s spend a gazillion dollars building a wall. why are drugs coming over the border. well because there’s a demand for them. who’s demanding them. holy shit. look at this; who’s doing all the drugs? the wealthy upper middle classes, or the lower working classes. the lower classes, well because they’re miserable and drugs give them the fix they need to get from day to day. they’re too goddamn broke and shit’s way to fucking expensive to get ahead anyway… might as well buy a bag rather than put that money in a pickle jar, right? well are they miserable because they’re on drugs, or are the on drugs because they’re miserable? i bet you can guess.

here’s my idea. we seize all the money and assets from the parasites that have it all, redistribute it back to those who produced the wealth (the workers), get them set up in a decent life in which they’ll find healthier ways to enjoy themselves, assign them to a job at which they can be productive, lower the demand for drugs and therefore the illegal traffic over the border, remove trump from office and give him a job at bojangles working the fry pit, stop building the wall, and spend that gazillion in more useful ways for the society.

side note to those imbeciles who believe the left is a threat to the paternal institutions that define conservative ideology. it is precisely the left that will institute the necessary authoritarian structures that will circumvent the excessive freedoms that exist in the free market society that allow the scum bags of the useless lower class to become miserable drug addicts.

i never tire of hearing the right complain about all the problems of the lower classes… which is the glorious mess that it has made. then the government goes to spending outrageous amounts of money to fix the problems that capitalism creates, while screaming that capitalism is the solution.

and another thing. you think all the mexicans would be trying to cross the border if mexican industry were more stablized? and what do you think caused the destablization of that country’s economy? lazy mexicans and lack or resources? nope. bad infrastructure? yep. and why is that? because the wealthier nations got a hegemony on everything and don’t give a shit about the mexicans unless they can pick tomatoes for seventeen cents an hour.

gimme the stats, dipper!

You nailed it!

We can’t fix the broken, BUT we can improve society so the next generation doesn’t suffer the same fate. The sort of person doing drugs, you could give him a million and he’d blow it then be right back where he started. We can’t really fix that, but only stop it from happening again.

Yes, the father of last resort which is probably a better one anyway.

Man you’re really sharp to see all this that most seem not to be able to see even when it’s spelled out.

Yeah capitalism has incentive to keep people hungry and desperate for any wage at all in order to maximize profits. The wealth is sucked from mexico and deposited in the Hamptons and some of it might trickle down to main street when a new yacht is purchased. The shitholes exist to maintain the opulent places.

Think of detroit: an entire industry got up n left leaving huge swaths of people sitting there, went to china to make its products, then sold those products to the same people they left hanging. Some of the people may have had a meager welfare or low-paying shit job (and peddling drugs), but nothing like the factory job of before. What did they expect to happen? So then we need a war on drugs in order to herd some of them into concentration camps to get rid of them, to save on the welfare, and make some cash on the side by putting them to work for 25 cents/hr. Oh it’s a real fuckin! Not many people can see it though. I’m beginning to think at least 120 iq is necessary to even grasp it. 100 iq, no way, even if they could get past their arrogance. So that was helmuth nyborg’s point that democracy can only exist in countries with a certain average iq… like 90 I think… on average… minimum. There is much profit to be made in keeping people poor, hungry, and stupid. That’s how to capitalize.

Oh I forgot that religion is also necessary to get people to forget this miserable life and concentrate on the next where the streets will be gold.

Oh and then you convince them that paying a gas tax is “fair” because the ones who use the roads should pay for them, nevermind that the trucks the corps use tear up the roads, so the costs of the road is socialized and the profit from its use is privatized.

Oh and then the military is socialized R&D: we pay to design stuff that is sold back to us for profit.

Shit there’s like 100 years of smart guys figuring out how to fuck us. The systematic dismantling of everything FDR instituted and erosion of our rights one amendment at a time. Ironically though, the totalitarian corps are turning benevolent. The lone holdouts are the southern bumpkins and ruralites, as you spelled out recently.

Yeah man, you got it! Just put it in intimidating poetic flowery form and start proselytizing on the net! He who has an ear to hear will hear. Don’t be nihilist now, this is our asses we’re talking about :wink:

we couldn’t believe that such a farcical attempt at reason could exist for so long. it literally lasted hundreds of years. the lengths that this type of man - what in bio-economical terms we’ve defined as an ‘ergonomic parasite’ - would go to in an effort to defend and justfy his ‘right’ not to work, was astonishing. and they employed all manner of philosophers to do so. from ontology to religion to economics, they tried to design a comprehensive body of knowledge and science to prove it had to be like this… that it wouldn’t work any other way. even the poets and artists went to work under its banner. finally an entire world view was manufactured that captivated everyone, and all for one end; to keep this parasite from having to labor. we had originally thought it was for something more profound… like a genuine attempt to define and understand human nature… and for a while it was convincing. they used darwin, nietzsche, adam smith, and many others to build a theory around the premise that man had to be naturally exploitative and competitive in order to recognize and realize his greatest potential. but then that fell through as so much more dubious speculation already engendered by the momentum of the market revolutions taking place; even philosophy took the new form of production which would mirror the modes of economy now prevalent. a great explosion of productive force over the course of a few decades, and next thing you know, all the philosophers were writing about it as if they had found the philosopher’s stone. well of course they were… there was a market for the crap they were writing, so of course they did it. we watched the world spontaneously divide into two classes right before our eyes; the bourgeois team of business owners and philosopher hacks that supported them, and the proletarian team of workers and revolutionary theorists who immediately set to stopping this charade before half of the earth was crawling with them. we quickly won the theoretical war with little effort, wiping the conservative thinkers out. the capitalist theory/practice literally blew itself up… we hardly had to make an effort. now we were waiting for the dialectic of history to fire it off. but we’d never forget this greatest of ironies in the history of man; how could such a centuries long magnificent body of theoretical hot air evolve that would end up proving only one thing for sure? that the parasite type would do anything to come up with an excuse not to work. that’s it. that’s all it was. what an unbelievable hoax. no great discoveries, no cutting edge scientific knowledge, no pioneering fields of research. nothing. how could it have taken us so long to see through this facade and call this bullshit out? that’s the question we ask ourselves, and that we were so long deceived by it is a testament to the extraordinary ability of the lazy creature man to use all of his faculties and sophistication to figure out a way to avoid having to work. now that the revolution is over, we’ve changed the title of adam smith’s ‘wealth of nations’ to ‘how to stay on the couch and get the other guy to do the work’. it’s become a bit of an international joke now. we keep it in a museum in which we have on exhibit old capitalism relics. philosophy books, economic equations, novels (we’ve got all of rand’s stuff in a gallery), propaganda art (music and film), all sorts of stuff. it’s become quite the tourist attraction.
