Yeah this is all basically what I mean with sentience is death-awareness, death of death (I just claim it has a direct material cause, which is trench warfare → industry → the industrial burning of coal → a global permanent pagan ritual sacrifice (burning of coal → dead animals and trees and shit, oil dinos), a bonfire that has been burning for 200 years in a literal attempt at black magic, to closing off the world to God by darkening the sky. I am the only serious materialist philosopher working today.

and The Other’s other (the anyone), lots of literal terminology I could save a lot of time and effort by just picking up, instead of trying to reinvent it all myself with scraps in cave.

a common thing in writers like nietzche and kierkegaard and bukowsky (supposedly Ive never read him), all the way back to plato and sheet, is there’s this contempt for the ”common man” of the age, who for one reason or another is a herd animal and not sentient. In further matrix metaphor, they are unconscious and they are potential agents (enemies) of the Anyone, of the Herd, in which the Cause and Origin of Bad Shit is, presumably, located. The chubby, consoomer of today, the ”middle class” of kierkegaard. Takes various forms and names but it’s usually identified as the mass of people, of which we, artists and intellectuals are apart. "Normies" "petite bourgeoisie". Bap does this too. I think this is big mistake, and also a point on which bap is often incoherent. We need to save middle class with strong leadership etc, while also holding it in contempt. These two concept are at odds and while untangling them is not too hard, it is absolutely necessary to do if you want to get anything done (intellectually, in mind craft)

I think very few are capable of divorcing their own personal animosity, and for lack of better terminology, ”psychology”, from these kinds of judgments. I think there is tendency in writer-brain-man to REJEC “the mob” “the common man”, but this tendency or instinct is not good, or rather it is not the best possible option. Best possible option is, integrating your own “anyone” in a stable relationship with ego. This is I believe Jungian integration of anima and that kind of thing

In my case I don’t resent the common man. I might, on a surface level, in an interaction with one. But even that is really only very rarely. Usually the way it happens, is I resent my own psychological construction of the common man in my head while I think about some actual common man I have to interact with at a later date – upon the actual interaction I find that I usually have a reasonably good time. Usually the people I really resent are not common men at all, but very particular men – you might be able to make a case that these men, usually status strivers and amoral people wh you just sense nothing behind their eyes except hunger and maybe a scared child or something. You could make a case that these people are perhaps, hyper-socialised, and have become earthly material manifestations of the Anyone, having given up their souls entirely. Which I would, probably. It seems like a fun case to make.

Anyways I think that’s a weak point in most all theory and we should solve this resentment through universal forgiveness and accepting the Holy Mystery, letting ourselves be forgiven, and that most people of a writing-temperement probably don’t want to forgive the middle class/normals because they are unwilling on a, Allah forgive me for using the word, psychological level, to accept being forgiven themselves.

I like >anxiety is good, I am always saying this. Or, I say, shame is good, because it tells you what you need to do, it’s like a big spotlight that tells you whats important, what’s the best next move to deal with. “You should always do whatever it is you don’t want to do”.

You will not make a big angry crowd of girls get mad online :^) because you opened with all the good stuff, all the long text. For purpose of making big internet controversy in future, I recommend front lining the attaque

I like reading a letter that my natural instinct is to write notes to while reading because I don’t trust myself to have a coherent overview once I finish

I’m sorry but I dont like the picture much, I don’t like photographers. I only like german theory. Also I can’t concentrate on reading if I listen to music I’m sorry I’m reading it wrong. I have brain problems

in terms of internet writing I think you could easily have done this without the introduction of theory, and achieved success (controversy). Be warned however that by doing so, you may just get what you want (this is bad. You don’t want this)

I think an slight oversight in the analysis of the travel girl is taking the authors at their word. The analysis is on the Thing-As-Presented, the picture of the woman the author wants the reader to see. I believe we can cause more dasein by deliberately not taking her at her word, but pathologizing her and psychologizing her.

There are three women in any travel girl internet meme. One is the author, one is the reader, and the third is the image, which is empty and simultaneously a reflection of both the reader and the author, a faceless thing they can project onto in degrees. When we call them inauthentic, we must remember that they are *actually inauthentic*: the third woman is a fake. the successful marketer/author knows this – perhaps not in language – it is very likely she knows literally nothing in language – but in action-skill-craft. at-hand.

Reversely where I say we should not resent the Mob and the common man, I say for all successful bloggers, that they should not be pitied “for they know not what they do”, but rather held in contempt and held responsible for their knowingly done misdeeds. In this case being, willingly consorting with marketing gimmicks, advertisement, clickbait, commercialisation of one of the few available paths left in this world, etc. I think every time something you see online that makes you go “aaah this is so annoying/terrible it makes me depressed and sad for them, how can they be like this, I want to save them”, what one should do is instead to actively resent them for knowingly engaging in evil behavior, spreading evil.

My proposal is this: women are sentient. This is not a pleasant thing to think about and it is much nicer to make excuses for them. I propose that the author very well knows that she is an author, and that the reader very well knows that she is a reader, and that neither is being "had". and that these revelations – despite being absolutely true and accurate – if presented to either, their reaction would not be the desired “oh no I’ve been found out!” that we would like to provoke, to provoke introspection and change. But rather a “well duh, we know” - at best, a “why must we suffer the indignity of being revealed/uncovered/found out, while we are already broken/miserable – GET HIM!”.

If it was the case that neither party “knew” what they were doing, this fantasy we (the critics) have of causing internet outrage by dismantling their fantasy, would not be conceivable. We would not worry about it, we would not imagine little story about how someone reads this and gets mad, in our head. It is a good example and a good explanation but I dont think it’s a good provocation

You can take people to the top of the mountain and show them the peak, but you can’t make them take the leap of faith, and taking people to leap-of-faith point while also not freaking them out and going fight/flight is difficult. But I believe in going “you’re too chicken, nah nah, you don’t got the guts, hahaha”

Anyways to summarise guys rule girls drool. Thank you I really enjoyed it and honestly much of my critique is a product of my own resentment that I dont have the #mindset to actually incorporate theory and make it look all nice and proper-like. You know what I mean. And I envy you being able to do that.

These two concept are at odds and while untangling them is not too hard, it is absolutely necessary to do if you want to get anything done (intellectually, in mind craft) - love the sinner hate the sin what a poggers, also, this sounds like a political project randy, a we need to sounds like a call to action, what did he mean by this,

integrating your own “anyone” in a stable relationship with ego.- filtering importance/social circle determination, social media intensifies desire to have multiple shallow interactions

given up their souls entirely. - i don’t like the idea that the striver’s inhibition of role is equivalent to the possession of soul, that is odd to me, it is like a golem, it is not true soul, not true man, inferior in fundamental way to inhabit one mask fully.

For purpose of making big internet controversy in future, I recommend front lining the attaque i’m really writing this for myself, ev recommended the topic because i opened the subject to a poll, ev was the only person who replied.

One is the author, one is the reader, and the third is the image, which is empty and simultaneously a reflection of both the reader and the author, a faceless thing they can project onto in degrees. When we call them inauthentic, we must remember that they are *actually inauthentic*: the third woman is a fake. the successful marketer/author knows this – perhaps not in language – it is very likely she knows literally nothing in language – but in action-skill-craft. At-hand. - oh baby somebody got the intersubjectivity down pat, you should use it more often and more heavy-handidly.

If it was the case that neither party “knew” what they were doing, this fantasy we (the critics) have of causing internet outrage by dismantling their fantasy, would not be conceivable. - you know, it’s funny, because this is sort of the fundamental fabric of eros and erotic desire and getting really horny sometimes.

actually incorporate theory and make it look all nice and proper-like - i have autism and cannot relate to the events of my own life without the lens of theory. I am a retard. than k you.

taking people to leap-of-faith point - MKULTRA but it’s just putting you in a forest.

excellent work, truly good, i have had these exact kind of thoughts banging around in my head for literally months except i dont have the theory (except for nietzsche). really put the problem to paper as it were. i am inspired to write a little something similar
