Of the Canadian brand. Very likely a LPC partisan. I recognize the name too. May have interacted with her on Twitter years ago, or saw someone arguing with her, but I don’t recall exactly.

Endogamy and exogamy both necessarily presuppose the existence of in-groups and out-groups. Endogamy is about self-selection via group selection.

Updated chronology. Better visual. Given that the Exodus out of Egypt is a founding myth, the probability that it corresponds to a different series of events is extremely low. Especially in conjunction with all the other evidence presented.

These are all metrics, so I’m using the same root (ie. -metry) to lower cognitive load in organizing the information. Astrometrics just refers to astronomy or spherics. Harmonics or Music becomes Chronometrics, and Arithmetic becomes Arithmetrics. Natural tetralemma filter. Unary connectives.

The electoral system is constructed around state capitalism. A vote is an act of consent. By affirming and voting in a federal election, you are adding your name to the list of people who consent and legitimize the social hierarchy as it currently stands. Consent of the Governed.

I think many do, yep. It’s problematic with the eastern stuff too, because much of the pre-Hindu traditions are oral. Identifying etymological cognates in different languages shines a bit of light on it, though. Re: Amarna. Chronologically, the “Exodus” likely corresponds to the Atenist expulsion.

A cognitive worldview built around the objectified self is inherently circular because it’s timeless and self-referential. The future, like the empty set is, an abstract hypothetical. It is absolutist because its essence is defined as something that can never be realized. Unreal. Non-relativistic.

Many go further. The fasces is a symbol of judicial authority, and the state is the subset of the population with the judicial monopoly on violence. So, an ideology or principle born of the fasces is an ideology of state class supremacy.

Hmm, this is interesting. What is this from?

Agrippa had five, according to Sextus, and the Modes largely correspond to the Pramanas of the Dharmic religions. Something interesting happens when you combine them into a Hasse diagram too. If a = circular, then bcde are non-circular. If b is regressive, then acde are non-regressive. If c…etc.

#Samaritanism is an Israelite cousin to Judaism, as it were. The Samaritan Torah is older, shorter, and tends to conserve more original traits of the common progenitor religion. One crucial difference is the importance of Mount Gerizim, which plays the same theological anchor role as Mount Zion.

Learning a new language is a difficult challenge. Instead of learning concepts in isolation, which requires forming new neural circuits at the cost of time, repetition, calories, etc., try to use the etymology to identify related words and concepts that you already know in your native language.

He’s rejecting both centrist and right-wing parties. Centrism is defined by its “bothsides-ism”. It doesn’t exist without situating itself between the left (egalitarianism) and the right (despotism). The one thing that the center and the right have in common is a non-egalitarian foundation.

He explicitly said that he holds them in contempt for different reasons, meaning that he does see them differently. Perhaps he’s referring to the fact that they’re all variations of state capitalism.

Self-identification with an in-group means simultaneously identifying and defining everyone else into an out-group, cousin.

Why don’t we look through an empirical lens? Together. It’s always good that we look at multiple sides before we judge. If you’re moderate left, then it means that you do have a functional definition of left and right. To be clear, your baseline definitions are not arbitrary, right?

Adding the alpha privative (ie. the an-) to the first three negates them, creating the concepts of Anattan, Anatman, and Anautón. Like how Atheism is the negation of Theism. Ancient Egyptian doesn’t have an alpha privative, but uses nn or nj to mean not or non. So, Jtn becomes Nj-jtn or Nn-jtn.

I accept your concession. You are dismissed.

What was my answer when you asked that before?

You asserted that I hadn’t spoken to anyone, which my profile demonstrates otherwise. I called you out for it, and now you’re moving the goalposts. It’s almost as if your worldview is arbitrary, and detached from relativity.

It’s the morning, and I’ve already spoken to multiple people. It’s like everything that you say starts from contradiction. Do you have a theory of mind?

The Contrarians are getting upset.

You’re alluding to the institution of the state itself. Authoritarianism requires a judicial monopoly on violence to enforce class hierarchy, which is why the state is inherently a right-wing institution. That’s also what the fasces symbol represents. The judicial supremacy of the state.

When you self-identify with a racial in-group, you’ve necessarily created a racial out-group. That very act of unilateral self-identification (ie. self-reference) means that you’ve simultaneously racialized others against their consent. Problematic given that race itself is ideological nonsense.

#Samaritanism is an Israelite cousin to Judaism, as it were. The Samaritan Torah is older, shorter, and tends to conserve more original traits of the common progenitor religion. One crucial difference is the importance of Mount Gerizim, which plays the same theological anchor role as Mount Zion.

Instant red flag. Any time a woman praises Ayn Rand, I get Rose the Hat vibes.

A disk is the embodiment of circularity. It implies: - no angles - no hierarchy of parts - no beginning or end - maximal symmetry - complete self-containment It’s a representation of narcissism and nihilism because there is no arc of progression. It’s arbitrary once time is removed. Absolute.

Allism = allos,(“other”) + -ism,(“ideology, principle, or condition born of”) = Condition born of the Other. Altruism. I think that many would just prefer the term normal, though. It’s evolutionary, that’s for sure. As obligate social primates, we are, afterall, oriented towards the Other.

It’s the perspective of Epimetheus (“afterthought”). An empty Set. Starting from the future is obviously an unrealized objective because it hasn’t happened. There’s no sensory experience yet to measure by definition. It’s Absolute. Affirmation of the unreal is an undoing of that which is real.

Nah. I’m an outsider looking in, and I don’t have the biases that you carry. Before you make some xenophobic remark, I’ll be happy to butt out once your country stops interfering with mine. When you play state capitalist games, you win state capitalist prizes.

Objectivism is constructed from the unrealized ideal of free market capitalism. Neoliberalism is constructed from the unrealized ideal of free market capitalism. Objectivism is also Atenism, or maybe Neo-Atenism I should say. I’m curious how liberals and new atheists view Atenism and Akhenaten.

It’s true. On a completely unrelated note, of course, the Ancient Egyptian verb jtn, or Aten, means to object, oppose, or contradict. As a noun, it means disc, or flat circular object. As an -ism,(”ideology, principle, or condition born of”), that means Contrarianism. Flat and Circular, indeed.

I’m kind of curious. Who is it that you think were the good guys in the Amarna heresy? Or do you mean that there were no good guys in that situation?

Yep. There’s definitely Anomie. Anti-normative (ie. normlessness), which is anti-nominative. In cognitive grammar terms, that’s a pathology built around the reflexive self, an object pronoun aspect. Objectification of the Self. The nominative is the subject. The dative is an anti-nominative.

The concept of “now” used by your brain will only ever cover about 80 years of existence, on average. A worldview built solely on this perspective will hold a bias to their own place in space and time, including the meaning of words. It’s subtle, but it’s an appeal to novelty.

Allism and Autism form a spectrum of behaviour and cognition within the human primate. In fact, all humans belong to the same sexually dimorphic species of obligate social ape, and that spectrum partially describes the natural variation within our shared group’s evolutionary heritage.

What do you mean? The Patriarchs are mythological characters, and Hebrew doesn’t emerge until about 1250BCE.

Mirrors (and Coxeter diagrams) are interesting concepts.

At the moment, the two main parties are staunch state capitalists, and thus anti-egalitarian by definition.

I think that forgetting what Amenhotep unleashed is part of the reason why we’re in this timeline.

The labels have conflicting baseline definitions. The French Revolution spectrum, which is still in use, is different from the Cold War spectrum. The Right’s foundation is the despotic Ancien Regime, a formal economic, political, and religious class hierarchy. That’s oligarchy in practice.

Assuming the best intentions of others is often problematic. I think the majority of people have good intentions, but that many do have bad intentions. She’s the latter. We’re all adults who have experienced this, so assuming without first identifying another’s moral objectives lowers our guard.

Race essentialism of the progressive left? That doesn’t even make sense. The left pole is inherently anti-racist, and part of anti-racism requires recognizing that racial classifications are junk science. Classifying humans by race, a folk taxon, is the foundational concept of pro-racism.

No matter how many times you repeat it, it won’t get through to at least half of them. The Zionist worldview is built on starting from a future objective and working backwards. It’s all circular and regressive, which is what happens when we treat hypotheticals as real.

Defining an in-group simultaneously defines an out-group, cousin.

Always has been? That’s a very serious assertion. When and where does this claim on the land originate?

Race itself is an nonsensical ideological concept. A folk taxon below species. All humans belong to the same species of obligate social primate, though, so any of those subset distinctions are illusory anyway.

An interesting perspective. How would an -ism,(“ideology, principle, or condition born of”) that was built from this reflexive object pronoun case look like? If this perspective acted as one’s foundational principle, what kind of cognitive biases would it introduce to the user?

The creation of a defined in-group simultaneously creates a defined out-group.
