“Ideological certainty is the primary ingredient … in what resembles QM wave-collapse within human group cognition. A form of measurement where, the act of measuring is, itself, deemed holy and correct. True and Good. Right. These words I select typify the steps in the process, each one a milestone in the loss not merely of intelligence, awareness and liberty… but the loss of our potential to see, at all, together. These are »blinding maneuvers. The drag us down a ladder that proclaims its verity, but delivers ignorance. War. Tyranny. This contagious form of ideological malware dominates as easily as it obscures itself. And it most often does this by weaponizing either commerce or religion. Or, in the worst cases, both. You will see these features of human group cognition raise the flag of virtue while they collapse the entire field of potential for insight into »one feature, that they proclaim as holy. This is not activism. It’s not ‘justice’. It’s insanity. And it’s a lethal in the scientific community as it is in the common cohorts.”

Science (sometimes) becomes Scientism to the degree that the academic atmosphere of discovery has disappeared into the dominance of dogmas of interpretation that defend themselves against anything that might exceed or falsify them… or their usually unadmitted ‘sacred facts’. which are not facts at all, but suppositions.

“I can answer any question you ask. And those I can’t answer don’t matter.”

∞ “Every act of human communication posits a route, and associated transformations of attention, position, relation and mind. In our modern circumstances, most of these routes are intensely toxic, and lead not to desirable destinations, but to roles as symptoms or expressions… of disease… particularly relational disease.

Given these circumstances, we must learn.. together… to discriminate between communications activities that are enriching, or at least neutral, and those that cast us into roles and futures that are both undesirable and unsustainable.

I will add as an aside that it is participation in ‘news’ that most significantly compromises our actual potentials for humanity, intelligence, and truly participatory mutual awareness. For this reason I encourage you to develop the senses that alert you when you are being indoctrinated by media whose origins and concerns have nothing to do with intelligence, or even information, but are, instead, conversion cons that aim to force you into roles and perspectives that disempower and dehumanize you.

Lastly, beware of any communications activity that frames you as a victim, for this is one of the most common, contagious, and devastating results of participation in the ‘modern’ communications frameworks.”

∞ The silenced and voiceless have not my facility with words. But they have my heart and I theirs. And so, where we meet in each moment, I will be their voice. If they shall have me, I will be their shield. And loop. And I will fly and see for them; their standard is my soul’s wing. My skills and ways are all for them. For I am of and for them. With and as them. Where needed, I will be their blade in words. None sharper shall be found. And I will pierce their enemy. And it will know my sting.

But to speak deep truth requires more than skill or art. Indeed, to speak the heart of my own soul needs not erudition, but broken language, tears, rage… the passions will not be occluded in any moment of true speech. When I speak truly, my voice cracks, my heart pounds, my spirit wrenches at its bonds. It is not a matter for public display, but I wonder what would happen if… we all could speak… the broken truth of childhood’s heart within us. Or if, in fact, language could possibly bear such precious content, or would be thus destroyed entire.

“Suppose with me that there’s a single soul shared by all of humanity. That each of us is an instance of that unity. Always. Such that whatever befalls any of us… is felt and known somehow, by all of us.

Suppose further that this soul is more divided within itself, the more humans that there are alive at any one time…

Then extend the metaphor…”

∞ “One of the profound ironies of language is the implication of its completeness. Yet it is precisely to the degree that one can only incompletely specify a true friend that one may have one. The same is true of truth itself, and, indeed, each of the virtues.”
