“ ‘Mind’ is something like a ‘manifold’ in terms of its mathematical senses, transposed into the domain of awareness, sensing, and so on. The methods we learn as children, methods involving language and the denotation of identity into representations, comprise a technology. The first technology. The problem is that each ‘version’ of this is ‘purposed’, and acquiring ‘one’ occludes the purposive potentials of ‘the cloud, before a specific one dominated’. The actual implications of what I am speaking about here are, to me, more provocative than all of science and religion. We are doing something that is »more than both, in order to produce deadly representations that dominate the process. It is relatively simple to return someone to ‘the cloud’, and this is almost all of what addiction and compulsion are actually seeking. A moment of freedom from the domination-thing »as their mind.

But my point is simple. There is a way of collapsing the manifold that results in our common language acts. But there is another way that »drags some of their precursors into the artifact that results from the collapse so that the eye of the mind sees these in precedence to the »schema of common language acts. This is (one form) of intellectual insight, and results in things such as aphorisms, humor, fierce invective, and other aspects of what we might think of as rhetorical intelligence.

Most of us have nearly no formal rhetorical intelligence, and our ‘folk versions’ are largely self-misforming. This makes us ‘want to be exposed to’ examples of ‘sudden liberation’ that (actual) insight or humor provide. Originally, humor’s primary power was understood as an »insight way. A way of seeing ‘beyond’ ordinary confines. For us, however, as a ‘culture of helpless spectators’ and ‘culture sluts’, most of us will be situated as spectators. In any intelligent culture, it is unlikely we would ever ‘watch a single person on stage’ because what was happening in and amongst us would be shockingly more profound than anything we could ‘spectate’. But I digress.”

‘Truth’ is a representational derivation that arises from analysis. The analysis, however, derives its verity from »axioms, which, in general are either asserted, or taken for granted. In this sense, representational ‘truth’ is derived not from data, primarily, but from the comparison of data with the axioms employed to validate it. All axiomatic systems are necessarily incomplete.

There are, however, more and less complex frameworks of axioms involved in evaluating truth. Some simple truths, are relatively obvious within a very simple axiomatic framework. Others, however, are astonishingly complex, and the frameworks in play »cannot evaluate their own axioms, because such an evaluation would require an escalation of the »orders of axiomatic forms.

‘To miss the mark, to err, to take one thing… for another… to arrive at a destination other than the one desired.’

‘The Drama Triangle’ is a model of an exceptionally common human tradition where people play the roles of Persecutor, Rescuer and Victim (the most prized role) in transactions that are generally catastrophically malformed. Youtube (and other social media site) comments represent an incredibly clear example of this largely unconscious game that our cultures imprint upon us.

‘Some’ people are, too often, a segment of the population we have singled out to fulfill the purpose of validating a specific criticism we have of what is actually a small segment of a population, or humans in general.

Yet we will pretend otherwise, or even presume that ‘people in general’ are thus — ignoring the mitigating factors of history, habit, context, and supposed expectation.”

‘Live Simply So That Others May Simply Live’ is a laudable sentiment. But it doesn’t work in a situation where specific classes of persons continually eat up the meager ‘benefits’ produced by those who do this… in behaviors that capitalize on the availability of wealth, luxury or power.

In this situation, the formula fails, for it simply redistributes the benefits (and power) that might otherwise have accrued to all of us or the world… to a tiny fraction of the population who are intent upon capitalizing on the profit acquired by imposing suffering or obliteration on others and the world.
