</li><li class="field_fantasy" data-tradition="Fy" value="618" data-dimension="S">chip realism -> The concept of creating realism within a highly unrealistic art style strictly by "taking something appealing and balancing it out with strange or unappealing features". 
This was used in order to make the very simplified {{game|Pokémon Red/Green}} art style better match up with the rugged appearances of [[E:Ultraman series|rubber-suit kaiju]] meant to be filmed in at least really convincing fake diorama versions of natural settings. Rubber-suit kaiju are made with "strange or unappealing" features as part of the definition of being monsters, as well as rough rock-like textures to hide the potentially-unnatural appearance of the rubber beneath textures that look more like natural objects such as boulders or the surfaces of particularly hard-shelled animals. But the same tactic happens to also work decently for simplified cartoon styles. A simple enough cartoon style will make everything look like plastic especially when you attempt to render it onto a three-dimensional model. But one way to partially counteract that is to just throw rocky edges and strange enough features onto the design. Pidgey is a perfect example for chip realism: take a relatively generic drawing of a lark and throw on a lot of chips and tufts to make it look less flat. Later generations tend to forget some of the principles of chip realism used in earlier generations, but it is still partly intact. The strange proportions used on Pikipek or Fletchling accomplish the goal of making the Pokémon stand out against some kind of simple beach or jungle background and making it feel for just a moment as if no human being would deliberately design an animal so strangely so it must be "real".

*** this appears to be rather vague because there were different people with several different issues.
*** region appears to be federal?
** who or what should we oppose
*** Trump is a big one
*** one sign mentioned state governors
** what should we do
*** the only concrete thing I saw even hinted at was "vote 11/3 26"
* business card given. will not say what org name is on it due to name containing region. but - reminder to research group's website and report on general themes that website says

before this there was another protest in a second satellite city. must retrieve what date it was on

* two satellite cities 70 kilometers / 50 minutes away from major city
* previous event in second city 19 km away from crown28 event
* literally about 5-10 people standing on corner of intersection near light/crossing pole
* mainly I remember signs just saying "no kings"
* on the day, I thought, oh god, is this what this region calls a protest?? it figures. yeah this is about what we're capable of.
* surprised to see so many people today. in crown28 event, there were about 40 people.
** I just drew some dots on paper to try to illustrate how many people I remember seeing as I went by, and I drew 40 dots.

Valenoern: China? where is that?

{{BopCSS}}
I ([[User:Reversedragon|R.D.]]) am a bit obsessive about numbers. I had a problem with the idea of Items having small numbers that at the same time were arbitrary. What would be number 10?? What would be number 1?? 
I considered making all the entries in this wiki take their IDs from the timestamp they were created at, but when Wikibase had no clear way of doing that and it was already installed, I decided it would be easier to do this instead: map out the first 3000-9000 Item entries to the best numbers I can think of, and then stop worrying. A little later, I'd go a step further and scrap Wikibase to make editing individual Items and downloading them as text files particularly easy in all browsers, and allow for Item identifiers to be as pronounceable as possible thanks to the ability to add commas or redirects inside the same namespace.

This is the first prototype of every Item in order. After this, I began to create specific [[Philosophical Research:Ontology namespace|"Ontology" Categories]] for particular fields and media series, and to create [[Help:Hue lists|hue list templates]] to more consistently display the same proposed Item across pages. This page will not use any of the later html-saving templates in order to preserve a more basic and manual version of the [[Help:Hue lists|hue list]] markup. However, some especially verbose sections of chapters, episodes, short stories, etc. have been moved to Ontology pages to make the list easier to navigate.

You should be warned that there may be a lot of particular opinions on this page. Whenever I wrote any idea down I poured out the first thoughts that came to my mind on it. I had no intention that any of these first-thoughts would be a permanent part of any of the Item pages that would not change. Some of them were meant as loose guidelines for further examining each thing and collecting research or analyses of them on their pages in a general way, but only really as a starting place. I've always had the rule that [[redlink|"angry" does not belong on Item pages]], thus I sometimes absolutely went off here to avoid it going there. Also, you are encouraged to create alternate prototype pages scrawled on Category pages or [[:User Spaces for Special Research|in connection with other thesis portals]] — the only major rules are that all prototype notes should be archived on an early revision of their corresponding Item page (whether they are deleted or superseded in later revisions, which is fully expected), and that when somebody actually establishes a block of useful concepts within the Ontology namespace you must build off what is already there while moving existing Items only when there is some relatively important reason another Item should be using that number. If an Item is on a prototype page and has not been properly created, then it is not an issue to move things around, but you should try to keep related blocks together.

Item status: Wikibase set to be removed / Property data must be recovered first, then Wikibase extensions will be disabled / Ontology pages are now canonical Item pages 
Once the items on this page have been created, it will be natural for the names and purposes of the items to evolve somewhat over time, and there is no need for anyone to worry about whether the current set of items is "following" this prototype page. Items will become [[:Category:Ontology portals|grouped into specific topic-based Ontology pages]] such that following the list is less unwieldy, or [[:Category:Ontology entries by number|paginated numeric lists]] including the actual Items by template.

<ol class="hue clean reset">

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="618" data-dimension="S">China? where is that? -> the motif of {{game|Pokémon}}, or theoretically some other series, referencing real-world locations which later become nonsensical once the world is better established. 
part of me thinks this would be really funny to twist around to comment on the idea that games made in the First World don't like to reference workers' states. China? Cuba? what are those, we just wanna play our dumb fantasy game and forget that they exist. oh what, they existed in the world and were erased? hmm

</li><li class="field_exstruct" data-tradition="Fy, ES" value="618" data-dimension="S">normal world distorted by postmodernism / normal world wildly corrupted into unreal fantasy world by postmodernism -> pretty cool idea from RD. I half want to invoke it in Spaces_Mons; seems a little odd to bring into a mon game but also really conceptually funny. maybe there's a way to make it lighthearted and less "political", like how Chris D'Lacey wrote about the concept of climate change but abstracted it and attributed different imagined causes to it. through that angle there's a tiny chance it could work

</li><li class="field_ML" data-tradition="MX onto JC" value="618" data-dimension="S">Undertale and North Korea / the Underground is basically North Korea / Communist phoenixes ({{thingamajig|caps=y|Redacted}}Tale AU) -> the motif of comparing the Undertale setting to honest models of North Korea (not the pro-capitalist or pro-Tory ones) and pointing out that in some ways making this game was the only way to make United States people understand Third-World countries.

</li><li class="field_nations" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Any more stuff is decadence / Any more stuff is excess / Bringing in piles of Media Representation is excess -> the claim that capitalist growth bringing in ethnic or industrial diversity is inherently bad no matter which one it is because businesses have no need to get bigger and towns have no need to change. it's a little rare to see this claim in exactly this form because most of the time the biggest businesses in the United States far overshadow the smallest ones and can pretend to believe in diversity. at the local scale seeing this kind of claim is much more likely. 
this is one of the big reasons you want North Korea to have a Workers' Party of Korea. if North Korea wasn't a workers' state and it was just a small splinter country that believed in capitalism, it'd probably be pretty damn racist. it'd just be all about how much people hated the Japanese, and possibly why being an ill-developed country is inherently good. having a Workers' Party of Korea to nudge the country toward defining what progress is and working toward progress helps moderate that kind of effect. like, I'm gonna blow your mind. think about how in Undertale the monsters are killing human children to escape and there is this undertone if not quite outright plot point of them wanting revenge. [[E:Undertale and North Korea|if they had a "Workers' Party of Korea"]] they wouldn't be allowed to lean themselves toward revenge like that.

</li><li class="field_nations" data-tradition="MX onto PT" value="618" data-dimension="S">maladaptive self-determination -> the motif of a socially-linked group of people exercising genuine self-determination toward destructive ends that will only point them backward. I am convinced this is actually possible in a few limited cases. nothing else explains the former Confederate states properly. 
at the same time, it makes things terribly messy that this is possible. the United States already weaponizes this concept wildly against basically every country, claiming countries are corrupt purely to take control over them and benefit the United States, with only the {{em|side effect}} of sometimes benefiting the other countries. 
maladaptive self-determination + Any more stuff is excess = Prejudice is a form of freedom.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="F2">North Korea is a case of maladaptive self-determination
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="F2">East Germany exercised maladaptive self-determination / East Germany is a case of maladaptive self-determination
</li><li class="field_trotsky" data-tradition="IV" value="618" data-dimension="F2">The {{TTS|tts=Soviet Union|USSR}} exercised maladaptive self-determination / The Soviet Union is a case of maladaptive self-determination
</li><li class="field_nations" value="618" data-dimension="F2">Zimbabwe exercised maladaptive self-determination -> I can never remember what Zimbabwe even did. I think it may have been a land transfer or {{TTS|tts=Black Economic Empowerment|BEE}} thing or something?
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The Confederacy exercised maladaptive self-determination
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The South exercises maladaptive self-determination

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Antimatter is always teleporting electrons / Due to virtual positrons colliding with electrons and the energy turning back into matter, electrons appear to teleport to different places -> this... makes both antimatter and orbitals make more sense. there's no question of where the antimatter is, because it's always being made; the only question is how there are always matter particles to absorb it.

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Decimal numbers are infinite sums
</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Some infinite series can be expressed as polynomials -> this is used to calculate the golden ratio as a sort of "infinite series unit"

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The speed of an electron moving immediately over a nucleus is 137 times slower than maximum -> that says a whole lot by itself. really makes it appear like spacetime and the scale of real actual photons are separated

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Quantum field theory contains relativity -> one of those little cases of me writing myself a reminder of a fact because at the moment I wouldn't be able to prove this except by assuming relativity first and going "well all time is interactions so it has to be in there". whoever edits this Item later: please add a citation

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="S2">There is time dilation inside a black hole shooting the center far away from the surface -> doesn't specify what kind of black hole stuff is inside being stretched, only says that whatever is in there it's behind some billion year delay while the center is happening in a second. with what I know so far, I find this believable. there has to be {{em|some}} reason that only the surface of the black hole matters for its interactions. the concept that time could be wildly screwed up such that nearly no time is happening except at the center seems like it could definitely be a possibility to explain the holographic effect, or why an event horizon forms at all.

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Black holes are ordinary quantum foam stretched to the point it seems a billion years away (loop quantum gravity) -> my attempt to summarize a Planck star. sounds a lot like that string theory black hole, except it doesn't rely on mysterious strings and actually makes sense.

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="S2" data-submitter="RD">Circles, squares, and triangles are all secretly number lines -> having this is like the secret key to all of math. squares are when you fold up the axes of Euclidean geometry at neat right angles. triangles and convex polygons are normal Euclidean axes folded along the lines of modular arithmetic. circles are something very special. circles are when you take a number line and start folding it in absurd infinitely precise ways that require infinitesimals and their most famous subset, the irrational numbers, to explain. 
if you thought that {{book|Winning Ways}} making up a bunch of new numbers had no purpose, no. by one definition, numbers themselves are the root of all geometry and all coordinate systems which in turn affect all mathematical functions and how easy it is to express them. 
like. oh god. there exists a minimal shovel dream equation. it's the equation which makes a circle drawn onto a cone space or an arc drawn onto a globe look like a straight line. that's the simplest way to say it. the shape you stand on causes you to lose sight of exactly what your models of the world model

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="S2" data-submitter="RD">Irrational numbers create non-Euclidean geometries

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="S2" data-submitter="RD">Curvature makes integers into infinities / Curvature is the transformation of integers into infinities -> sometimes I just stand around and think about pi. ever done that? pi is irrational. pi is the multiplier between rational and irrational quantities. technically any number of irrational numbers have that same purpose of being multipliers or conversion factors as well as numbers. why? why is pi actually in formulas instead of just some crazy number mathematicians made up while putting together Dedekind cuts and comparing sets of numbers? today I think I kind of figured it out, maybe. characteristics of pi: pi can be expressed as an infinite sum. because it's possible to express as a decimal, it can be taken as this quantity or multiplier that as you zoom in gets more and more precise and so it adds on another tiny measurement again and again. a circle is like a polygon with infinite sides. you can use an integral to approximate and calculate the perimeter of a circle. (although to be quite honest I don't know what the integral is off the top of my head. I have this wonderful intuition for math objects but I am terrible at actual equations unless they transcribe what I was already imagining.) okay. so when you set up some kind of integral to calculate the perimeter of the circle and spit out pi, "dx" is an infinitesimal-object or operator {{em|thing}} that is acting like an infinitely divisible number. dx is an infinitesimal maker. it's clear the moment you create that integral that there is something a little odd about circles. you can't calculate around a circle normally using Euclidean geometry, and it somewhat takes infinite sums or "dx" to get you all the way around the circle by adding all those teeny tiny infinitely precise measurements. 
now here's the crazy thing that blew my mind today. Cantor illustrated the difference between infinities by drawing a straight number line, and then drawing a curve against it that contained more numbers. and that blew me away. it sounds silly that something like that would be a mathematics breakthrough ({{TTS|html=abbr|tts=circa|c.}} 1872) but no, it is. it shows that curvature itself is a departure from integer mathematics. a simple Cartesian plane with integer axes doesn't contain the numbers that make a circle; all circles are non-Euclidean. 
so... is it really so weird to say that a black hole contains infinities? what if the black hole really does contain infinities, but only because we were trying to make infinities cooler and more mysterious than they actually were? I mean, you look at the thing, and the outside of it aside from the burning disk of stuff is one big 3d circle — despite that being true of stars and planets, but those do also have gravity. what if gravity is just lines turning into circles, and it creates infinities in equations because circles and ellipses are infinities? maybe spacetime curvature really is an infinity, but it's always an infinity, because every time you bow a straight line into a curve it contains something small but infinite, an infinitesimal. in principle there's an irrational number or a repeating infinitesimal between every line and every curved path, including the curved path that bows an apple and the earth together. if gravity was a perfect circle pi would be the bridge to gravity. it is already infinitely long.

</li><li class="field_horror" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Warrior cat clans are too simple to be able to criticize their own rules -> the claim that the warrior code is a descriptive account rather than an actual set of laws, and this is specifically because

</li><li class="field_mdem" data-tradition="MX" value="618" data-dimension="S">bioempire / subjectivoempire (discarded term; meta-Marxism) -> the motif of living, breathing, eating, space-occupying individuals being the building blocks of empire, war, or genocide, although it is strongly implied they can usually only accomplish these atrocities by joining together in Community and friendship. a group as small as maybe two individuals joins together and produces positive feedback loops (think of the "brilliant" undertakers in CEO biographies), and at that point is creating bioempire. it must be noted this is solely talking about The Subject as a living being that makes decisions based on its needs; absolutely none of this motif is about "culture" or "attitudes" or "mentality" in the senses each of those terms tints the others. this motif has the connotation that all of those things are produced as justification after individuals have already joined together into bioempire or socioempire. 
it can be argued that the motif of "bioempire" exists in Buddhism, though from what I know, I think it may be missing the concept that {{em|linking individuals together}} results in "unhealthy attachments" as opposed to them somehow existing specifically inside individuals. if I'm wrong about that you can totally put this in the motifs section of a Buddhist text without putting it in the "subjective motifs" area.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" data-tradition="A, ES" value="618" data-dimension="S">cybernetic anarchism -> there is absolutely a distinct cybernetics-revival Existentialism/anarchism. sometimes it feels more like an Existentialist period, where it's all about Freedom and individual agency, but sometimes you see a very focused "anarculture"-like idea going on which is genuinely about breaking up positive feedback loops with homeostasis-like processes. to be honest, this stuff gives me a headache. because it's like, no, anarchists, no. the big problem dooming humanity is always Community. it's always in people linking together and exchanging harmful things to grow closer and more unified and supposedly make the world a bit more peaceful. you're never going to discover that as an anarchist who probably believes that "positive feedback loops" are a genuine departure from sociality or Community. they're not. Community and positive feedback loops fit together like a hand in a glove, while negative feedback loops are often anathema to Community and shrugged off as "authoritarian". socioempire contains like, individual empire, "subjectivoempire", I wish I could think of a good word for it... bioempire. 
the more I think about this the more I think Communism almost needs to be renamed. instead of socialism we should be talking about "asocialism" or something. the process where people learn to live in peaceful groups almost exactly like today's societies without those groups being formed out of inherent social instincts that can lead people toward prejudice and uncontrollable destruction.

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="M3">Why does slow time bring in gravity? / Why does slow time cause gravity or go together with the outward process of gravity?
</li><li class="field_geo" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Falling objects aren't moving, space is (general relativity) / If all objects accelerating due to gravity weren't speeding up toward other objects (receiving a force vector from the earth, etc), then space would be changing on its own "vectors" toward itself instead of apples toward planets or vice versa {{YouTube|qKZvAwcXceE}} -> these in-depth science propositions are going to need some cleanup once all the important insights of each model are laid out. there are going to be some duplicates I put in because I didn't understand they were the same equation, and stuff.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S">they killed the buffalo, Josh / White people killed the buffalo, so why do you trust them, Josh? -> I try very hard to never say bad things about indigenous people, and to assume that if stupid ideas appear to be connected to indigenous people they're stupid because White people adopted them and garbled them. and most of the time that assumption seems to bear out. but today... I found an actual instance in youtube comments of a Native American clearly not understanding the concept of history. it's real. the thing I didn't want to believe was real is real. so what now? I guess it's critical we teach everyone what history is, and that it's possible for groups of people to have different numbers of centuries stacked on top of them. some centuries full of a lot of senseless division and fighting, some containing progress. here's the problem with Josh. he's the product of like seven to fifteen centuries. where inside all those generations hundreds and hundreds of people all interacting with each other reterministically caused or forcibly changed each other's behavior. at every step in those centuries people were constantly holding each other in toxic relationships just to prevent crimes and wars. you know, in "The System". the purpose of The System is always to head off violence and make sure it doesn't happen today, so whenever you threaten to escape it people get terrified because they don't understand where crimes come from and they simply want to smash all crimes as fast as possible. next thing you know, a bunch of Christians hopelessly beaten into always following social rules just so people are "nice" and "not violent" have to move out of Europe so they don't commit huge violence against other Christians, but have no power to not commit violence against other groups of people because they don't realize Community is the thing that causes violence, not what stops it. at the same time this is happening, all kinds of other developments occur in society like technology and philosophy and scientific models, all on top of the basic conditions: group divisions, inability to control other chunks of people, adaptation to senseless fierce competition over the same things, and superstition about what crimes and peace and nonviolence and society and growth and internationalism and hope are. 
I guess. there are two valid times to say "I'm not racist but". "I'm not racist but anti-racist movements have bad strategies for combating racism", and "I'm not racist but unfortunately any group of people can be stupid". 
they killed the buffalo, Josh + dragonslayer-slayer = sectarianism/Zinovievism taboo

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="M3">Why did White people choose to live in The System? / Why did White people choose to live in capitalism? / Why did White people choose to live in colonial society? -> this is usually an anarchist, strictly-non-Marxist idea, so it's most appropriate to put it in weird opaque anarchist language. I may not like the way this idea is worded or expressed when it typically comes up, but taken by itself this is an excellent question. I mean, ask this question correctly and you'd have a highly-informative 600-page history book which introduced all the relevant objects and processes that genuinely suggested the correct strategy to end "The System". so, the usual answers are bad but the question is wired. 
...is. hang on. is this what the word "systemic" means. does it just mean that anarchists have no idea what they're {{censor|fucking}} analyzing and have just labeled it "The System" to be superficially objective about their lack of knowledge of what it is they're studying. oh boy. if that's it, it makes it severely ironic that many anarchists dislike objectivity, doesn't it. I mean, my Lived Experience is that The System is called capitalism, so you can only invoke objectivity if you want to deny that Lived Experience.

I don't know if it will ever be addressed, but you know, maybe. seems more likely than "mancountry" actually being in reference to gender. it's more likely going to be either the odd notion in the bible of 666 merely being "a man" who is especially bad or ominous and not necessarily some eldritch entity we like to think of when we think of "the devil", or the concept of humans instead of monsters.

with China, it's pretty obvious why this is: China was still a feudal order at the time of Maoism, so saying that Maoism defeated something other than capitalism totally checks out. likewise, North Korea didn't defeat capitalism, it defeated slavery. I'm not sure exactly what Vietnam defeated. looks like... [https://alphahistory.com/vietnamwar/august-revolution/ a client state with a puppet government]? huh. and in a weird turn of events Imperial Japan was expelled from Vietnam just because World War II was going on and First World countries hated each other. that reveals a lot about how the First World conceptualizes history — Communism is not okay because the normal course of Vietnamese history is the United States dropping a nuclear bomb on Japan and burning civilians to cinders. this makes the whole uproar about 9/11 make so much less sense when we basically saved Vietnam with a gigantic act of terrorism. 
so, Deng Xiaoping Thought conceptualizes proletarian revolution differently from mainstream Marxism-Leninism, but not necessarily in a sense that's wrong. it embraces Marxism-Leninism on the point that societies have to become conscious of their current structure and take control of it to defeat it — which happened. then it claims that proletarian revolution, in the broadest sense of society churning over into a truly proletarian economic structure that spits out a proletarian superstructure, is way in the future and Marxism hasn't actually been about the proletariat... "yet". this becomes a little bit of an absurdity in the context of the United States, where the country can develop for 200 years and become highly developed and one of the most privileged countries on earth and yet end up with no proletariat in a lot of places, the proletariat having been this transient phenomenon while hiring and firing and changing jobs is one of the most enduring processes along with new tiny businesses constantly cropping up and businesses of all sizes decaying away into nothing. it's like, has the proletariat ever existed anywhere? or have we gotten all of this stuff about the proletariat wrong? I think there's a case for that, that we've attributed a bunch of stuff to the proletariat that is actually due to a bunch of other more complex processes that Lenin somehow navigated correctly without bothering to explain. so, there are different models of Marxism. there is "Marxism-Stalinism" (thanks [[E:The Excessive Subject (Rothenberg 2010)|Rothenberg]]), there is Marxism-Dengism, and there are possibly others. there may be a Marxism-Trotskyism that somehow no Trotskyist has actually discovered yet but would become a theory if they all turned around and realized that they were promoting division instead of unity and the destruction of Communist Internationals instead of the creation of a meta-Marxist type International containing all viable Marxisms. it's not entirely clear yet how many valid but unappreciated variants of Marxism there are.

Trotskyists could not figure this out and tried to operate from the model that society has a single consciousness and it needs to all become Trotskyist, rather than that Trotskyists are a new tiny society that suddenly sheared off from the main society. it was equally dangerous for the CPSU to not realize that Trotskyites were not necessarily ready to be squashed into the main population. Bolshevism faces a thorny contradiction: capitalism is the division of society into arbitrary competing chunks, nations are the division of humanity into arbitrary competing chunks, humanity must be unified to get rid of class rule and prejudice, humanity cannot be unified all at once, the presence of division threatens to destroy Bolshevism, forced unification threatens to become colonial prejudice against nationalities, the "ideal" position is clearly to get upset at Communists for locking down around separate countries but not let them do anything to create a Third International and unify countries together, shattering every part of Communism. of course, all you have to do to fix this is realize that in the grand scheme of things small chunks are similar to big chunks. if Stalin isn't allowed to promote socialism in one country then Trotsky isn't allowed to create a second party. inversely, if Trotsky wants to be allowed to organize people for Trotskyism what he should do is allow Stalin's government to create their party and attempt to join together with them as a parallel Marxism so each of them will be stronger. each one doing different things internally but united on the outside. it kills me that the Soviet Union can exist as 14 parallel populations and nobody ever thinks of this. even if Trotskyism feels like the point of it is to act on huge scales it could still focus its energy on operating in the areas that glue "Stalinist" countries together. this is the way Leninist parties function. they are things put together into a whole, not an adversarial process. this is one of the only things that remains when a country transitions to Deng Xiaoping Thought giving it continuity back to Leninism that makes it just barely admissible as "a Marxism" even if its status as Leninism/Bolshevism is dubious or void. 
so, yeah. the big problem with Communist Internationals is that they have to start from teeny scales deep inside populations and go up to the international scale, because the true place humanity gets divided is the messy continuous divisions that can occur inside borders as well as at them. this poses problems for "revolution" when the teeny tiny splinter populations that spontaneously form every so often can easily be useless to nationwide movements and yet if a revolution goes through and you want to keep what you have, they really have to be accounted for or you have no way of stopping populations from fracturing into nothing all over again.

this issue is step zero toward getting Existentialism or anarchism to ever, ever succeed. forget meta-Marxism and finding the best Marxism — if you want anarchism to not be wiped off the face of the earth under the boot of a bunch of nazis you need to understand this. most signs of humanity being "kind" or "communitarian" or "social" are false signs. "community" as most people define it is a double-edged sword that also cuts people to pieces. commu-nity doesn't work. unless, of course, you want to give it a different, more narrow definition. 
the upshot of this is that it makes articles like the type specimen for "Existentialist inspiration porn" easier to intuitively identify as dubious. do you really know people coming together to fund a hospital is a good sign that people will continue to cooperate on things that aren't terribly basic, rather than shearing apart?

I think the answer tells us a lot about ideologies and whether people will be able to accept new models of how societies work. and not just new Bauplans of mainstream Marxism-Leninism or Kropotkinism or Deng Xiaoping Thought, but fundamentally, inner mental models of things like Menshevism and anti-racism and any change in society whatsoever. but funny enough, I think you begin fixing all that if you get mainstream Marxist-Leninists to coexist with Trotskyists, because the exact same basic difference between inner universes is manifest there.

(this is actually a problem with products sometimes, too. the inability to "negative-buy" something can keep products consistently unsatisfactory for a long time the more complicated and service-like and mired in exclusive deals the "product" gets.) not voting doesn't actually serve this purpose, because it doesn't counter the actions of all the people who voted for something when they shouldn't have. there isn't actually a form of voting which allows people to express "I really don't want this president" after the president is elected. approval rating doesn't do anything. there has to be a real threat of removing the president if people anti-vote hard enough.

Lived Experience theories are noumenological. within science, some cases of noumenology neatly unify with phenomenological descriptions of an interior process culminating in a new accepted model. one case of this would be the period of physicists constructing quantum mechanics from various confusing observations and then eventually being able to show that quantum mechanics "most likely" is able to evaluate upward to larger-scale phenomena in almost every case but gravity.

I wonder, could you burn things up by trying to poke the proton with a stick? would the acceleration be that bad? or would it just fly backward like a normal atom? we're assuming it has the mass of a proton, so when it's impossibly big it would probably be able to float in some substances, maybe even in air because that is a ridiculous density. it's also true that a proton can be a normal atom — a hydrogen ion. so you might think of it as just a huge gas molecule. could you pick it up with a magnet? I don't know.

a "relativistic Marxism" is in contradiction with the concept of a molecular Marxism. one resembles special relativity in being made from tiny reterministic pieces accelerating past each other that must stack up to history but do not have the ability to see or measure each other until they do, the other resembles quantum mechanics in being made from miscellaneous individuals assembling into shared consistent structures that assemble into bigger structures much like quarks assemble into protons that assemble into atoms. the sticky thing is in getting everyone angled toward RDem to work together with everyone hypothetically angled toward MDem. it's weirdly like humans really are giant particles somehow and the day we crack Marxism and the day we unify special relativity and quantum mechanics into some new "general quantum" theory will come right next to each other. spacetime and history are not as different as we want to believe, and may just be the same kind of thing at different scales. 
Teamwork is nothing, ontology is key + ?? = molecular Marxism.

I talked about this thing accidentally in book drafts without knowing what it was called, just because some time around trying to read Heidegger and compare it with physics propositions I realized reference frames and "boxes" around particles and particle interactions had to be connected. so I got the setup of this, I just didn't get to the "whether it generates particles" part.

I think that in some sense, yes, particles have to complete some kind of journey from reference frame A to reference frame B to be physical. and my long shot guess of how is that we make some kind of mistake in thinking that all the tiny reference frames can be put onto any single grid that's just one big warped sheet of spacetime instead of assuming the whole universe is more like one big ball of sand where all the grains are the reference frames. the divisions between the grains could be something of a mathematical artifact more than physical, a consequence of the joining of various grains to stretch and compact spacetime being the only thing in the universe that's truly unpredictable, a consequence of the one tiny gap between reality and mathematics that will never be crossed. even so I don't think that means we can't learn what gravity is. we can see it at larger emergent levels, so, assuming the borders between these reference frame grains were producing gravity, you'd solve the problem by making a probabilistic model kind of like physicists papered over the difficulty of observing fundamental particles in quantum mechanics. I think a model of gravity as good as quantum mechanics is possible, even if it could be the case gravity is one of the few things so small we really cannot measure it and can really only calculate it backward calculus-style by measuring its effects. maybe penteract space and sand-grain reference frames are nonsense, but here's the most reasonable thing I'll say: I think there will one day be a small-scale model of gravity.

(that sentence is a wonderful example of how almost every English sentence spoken in the United States abuses "we" to refer to the concept of "{{TTS|tts=I's|Is}}, pluralizing I".) so you need this unreal level of precision. I'm not talking about organizing where you just assemble people, I'm talking about filtration where you actually put people into a structure. I'm not talking about revolution where people are suddenly in a conflict, I'm talking about unifying people together into a structure to end perpetual cold war that everyone has to stay in until it can actually defend itself. I'm not talking about classes, where person A and person B are workers, I'm talking about capable subpopulations of people linked together that are harder to break apart than to negotiate with. 
interesting to note: anarchists don't really talk about "means of production" in this same sense. Lenin did, assigning a different owner to them than Western-Marxists, but anarchists don't. anarchists frequently talk about peasant life or tribal populations or some imaginary Kropotkinist city which is holistic but they don't really fixate on the concept of corporate or government social structures as they exist in Liberal republics and rearranging those exact structures to create something better. that seems to be a major divide between anarchists and Existentialists. Existentialists {{em|do}} hijack the concept of means of production or "instutitions", usually because they're copying Liberalism, but that may not be true in every case.

this one bit me. I got fed up with it because The Lefts were asking people to do things that were physically impossible, going to protests that don't exist and pitting 2 people against 100 people, and I just genuinely did not understand how it made any sense as a model of reality that was supposed to solve the problem. and it made people angry. people got super angry if you didn't tell people to "support" movements that wide swaths of people can't even contribute anything to where you'd really just be telling a chain of people to tell each other lies about how involved they are in causing the problem and how much they can do to stop it but otherwise do nothing. this was before I knew any Marxism. I was in an almost ideal untouched state of not being "corrupted" by Marxism and suddenly generic progressives are putting people through the ringer demanding people understand things even their experts don't have the tools to understand, which mesh poorly with all the other contradictory things they believe to supposedly Create Society Good and where nothing makes any sense. the anarchists and generic-progressives threw me out of society for not understanding contradictory things and I never really found any way back in. I just ended up in hell where every progressive, reactionary, and non-political person, maybe the Marxists too, want to stomp me for not successfully being human and the regret of being born that I always had is at its peak. I eventually came to the conclusion that anarchism genuinely doesn't make any sense and clearing people's minds of non-anarchism doesn't make it make any more sense, and the only way to actually create effective movements where a bunch of people don't just sit around begins at deconstructing every part of anarchism, including the superficially sensical parts like "community and communities". when you look into them they don't actually make sense. these "processes" don't explain how they themselves function and don't simply fail. biologists can explain how a pancreas succeeds or fails. physicists can explain when fundamental particle interactions do and don't happen, at least to a satisfactory extent, even when relativity and quantum mechanics only partly line up and don't perfectly line up. anarchists can hardly explain the processes behind anything.

</li><li class="field_mdem" data-tradition="MX" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Labor is a bourgeois activity / Labor is a bourgeois activity in the sense that the more labor you put into something as an individual the more you betray the concept of stable structures which can liberate people from capitalism -> the more I think about the concept of libraries and thrift stores, the more I think, in the framework of Lenin and his torn-up shards of Ricardo it really should have been that the point of socialist transition is to have so many used things you make as few new things as possible. in some cases that's not applicable. in some cases the used things will be recycled material, compost, seeds that are not ridiculously patented against reuse. in the ideal cases such as books and computer parts, you should simply get to the point where most workers are distributing things instead of manufacturing them and some workers are maintaining digital servers that distribute things at the greatest ease. every time we deviate from that pattern we create exploitation: allow owners to try to prolong the era of physical products and you get the crazy abuses of Amazon drivers who have to physically deliver used things, allow owners to prolong the era of new products and they get to keep exploiting factory workers and moving them all to the Third World, allow owners to prolong the era of people getting to be Career Artists and career problem solvers and even that pushes back the timeline for stopping overproduction and abuse of the Third World and delivery driver abuse. 
it often feels like the only way to strike at the root of it is to actually tell people, no, we have too many things, too many distinct individual things versus quantities of those things, you don't inherently deserve to create something, and if you agree not to create something new we don't inherently need you going to college — unless you already have a very specific trade to do and you know exactly what training is required. no, you're not inherently virtuous for doing more labor on something or getting more training. no, you're not inherently making the world better by creating a small business for people to give money to, you're exacerbating the problem of millions and millions of businesses constantly trying to drain people's attention. no, giving businesses a human face is not inherently good, because the more people can see a human face the more they'll want you to be absolutely perfect and try to get rid of you the moment you're not, and trust me, it will only hurt more if you're an Artist or the more you've put passion into it. you want to be faceless. the point of sociality is to make the individual faceless. to remove the individual from competition with other free-floating entities. you don't want parts of society and individuals to be the same thing. individuals eat and occupy space and hurt each other when they're starving and hold up guns. you don't want societal compartments doing that. society will always evolve. the act of doing labor will always actually pile up into the creation of new things like corporate studios that replace old things like artisanal practices. nobody wants to understand that for some reason, and the result is a million businesses constantly vying for everyone's attention with more opening every day and no end in sight. it seems like every time somebody gets upset at capitalism and is like "why is capitalism controlling me and stealing my attention" they go open another business and make the problem worse.

Work is stealing. Every act of working is stealing. Whenever you perform labor on anything you are always stealing the opportunity for someone else judiciously wielding their "non-narrative thinking" in order to believe in themselves to have done it better. White people steal from Black people all the time by working and telling them "you couldn't have done that thing as well as me, so you don't deserve a house loan, now get out of here". White people steal from Chinese people by trying to claim they can't take ownership of the patents and schematics other countries are making them produce. White people and Japanese people stole from Koreans by insisting there be a South Korea just so it could be part of UnitedStatesKoreaJapan instead of part of Korea. White people steal from Cubans by denying them the same trade routes they demand that other countries create just to stay standing and {{em|not}} get stolen. Nothing about the concept of stealing actually makes any sense. People complain about stealing existing and some group of people supposedly having stolen something when they feel like two groups of people are not forming relationships correctly and engaging in the exact same set of cultural rules and want to mark one of the groups of people as "cheating" at the act of forming into a single set of rules correctly. The concept of stealing was invented by Existentialist-Structuralist anarchologists. or at least, looking at the structure of the logic it'd seem that way. if you want to predict whether somebody will actually consider something to be "stealing" it's best to cross out all instances of that word and see if you can describe it with the word "cheating". as much as the concept of "cheating" is also subjective it does get at the slippery reasons that people actually reject things. nobody actually cares if you do or don't "own" an essay, as the world is cruel and nobody cares about the state of people successfully owning usable businesses or houses or not; what gets rules sheets and professors so weirdly furious about "plagiarism" is that it's cheating at the established system of ranking up within academia relative to a cloud of other living breathing people who are also trying to rank up and not get removed. every act of trying to do anything "honestly" is actually an act of trying to socially fit into a cloud of thousands of competing people who are all constantly individually judging you. 
and deep down, that really scares me. I always feel like no matter how hard I try at anything there's going to be some reason people will decide I'm not honest just because whenever I try anything I tend to reach a point where I am just too bad at some required part of doing a thing and I won't be able to do it "good" in a way that will make it intuitively feel "genuine" to them. maybe I try to make a video but I make it as a talk instead of a visual presentation, and I just know some people are going to hate it because it's a slideshow or an audio file or because I don't have any budget to spend on stock footage and I would have to doodle the slides or find images I have reason to believe are not special and meant to be used. maybe I try to write a book and discuss scientific thinking but I half know people are going to hate it because I don't truly know all the quantum mechanics math and I've been {{censor||bullshitt|ing}} my way around it with simpler math objects and a firm cage of well-checked propositions as I learn the good stuff slowly. maybe I try to create fiction but I know people are going to hate it because as much as I have really poured feeling and thought into it after however many years of trying I will not have become inherently good at Representing the Plurality of All Lived Experiences And Walks Of Life And How They Are All Inherently Relatable To Each Other On An Intuitive Level Without Science. maybe I try to build a proposition encyclopedia here but I know that if I have any fun with it people are going to hate it for a while until the day I make everything absolutely meta-ontologically sound so that all the Item pages are immediately comprehensible to people of every version of Marxism and also every bourgeois philosophy. and I'm naturally {{censor|shit}} at movements. if somebody is judging someone or angry at someone I can't talk water off a wet paper bag. everything I do every day even in my own building there is someone who is going to be judging me and telling me I'm not existing right and sometimes I don't want to wake up and exist when I swear other people are better at it than me and if I want to be honest and not a cheater I should just get out. 
It's like this. everything has become ridiculously Artisanal. the longer capitalism goes on the more every possible thing people can do becomes this weird little spatial slot hierarchy where honesty becomes synonymous with being actually talented and masterful at something and not doing something to the highest artisanal skill slowly becomes regarded as cheating and under some particular sets of conditions as stealing. Both sets of criteria are made up. they are fabricated on demand in response to contingent sets of conditions. and the role of them is to police the borders of a countable culture to enforce the physical constraint that it cannot contain an infinite number of people and must contain some finite number of people who follow each other's rules and like each other. inside a country every Culture is a {{censor|circlejerk}}. we are probably lying to ourselves that there's any such thing as Community at all. or maybe it's just that we confuse countable cultures with Community when that is one of the most improper models we could have. the bourgeoisie and Community are disgustingly intertwined. they {{em|will}} take the sheer act of existing in a population away from you and let a select Filament of people own that to the exclusion of new people being born. Existentialism-Structuralism must be stopped. we have to stop "tent of freedom poles" from getting to define what is stealing or cheating or ethical and what is human so all of these discussions stop being such nonsense and so hard to actually seal properly.

{{censor|god}} that would be a great Ultraman show, just, the super-kaiju that's half the area of the planet or at least actually as big as a city is always there in the background of every episode and part of the ongoing story arc, kind of like the moon in {{game|Majora's Mask}} but worse. it's draining their life energy to stop the people from turning into Ultras. it was small at one time, then it grew bigger and bigger as history went on. people hoped it would become friendly one day. but it just started burning things down for the {{censor|hell}} of it, tormenting the people and trying to break their spirits. one day it was so big there was no real option but to drain the monster itself for energy to rebuild civilization. the monster didn't even seem to mind. with everyone tapping into it, it knew exactly where the points of civilization were, and exactly when somebody was defying it and when to punish them with a disaster. some people were worn down, they wanted to leave. some started ignoring it. there could be a storyline where the monster "saves everyone" from an alien invasion but actually it only uses that victory to greater justify its control and its abuses. finally people came to the decision they had to outlast and out-live this thing to be able to fight it. they had to disconnect from the monster's power and they had to simply exist the best they could without being detected at critical moments, without being divided, without being petty any more. in the final moments where you'd expect to get insight into the villain it is still saying incredibly toxic things telling them they are bad friends and they don't know how to coexist with people, they're greedy, they're controlling, they don't know what's good and what's evil and they will fall apart when evil comes to this planet. they get ready to stab the {{censor|fucker}} in the heart and it's like "I'll destroy all life on this planet, I'll blow it up, I'm warning you". it's a very messy type of story where few things are happy. it's more of an actual horror story than most kaiju stories. because, you know, the real story is a horror story too. it's the friendship kaiju. that's actually what it's called. it starts as this nice little guy of friendship and rainbows and it turns into one of the most horrifying things.

the bright side: if immigrants come to understand Gramscianism/Marxism-Dengism and Lattice models, they can create an actual "victory of multiculturalism". if this is to succeed it must be understood through the backdrop of spatial slot hierarchies, Filaments, and filtration of correct models and facts from inaccurate models and facts in order to build a nation-wide workers' state where the Lattice survives the surrounding onslaught. no filtration? no victory of multiculturalism, all bigotry.

A) these works were created in the United States. B) the homestuck teenagers being thrown into a new world to overcome a bunch of nasty enemies and danger and uncertainty almost in isolation is a loose metaphor for the process of finding a career in the midst of an environment where individuals and chunks of people are constantly fighting each other for the ability to be part of society rather than leave and connecting into little enclaves of allied competitors (corporations, Liberal-republican parties, etc) that fiercely try to keep all outsiders out. C) the genesis frog is a loose metaphor for each individual having to re-create all of reality around them through labor to break away from parents and toxic friends and political enemies and other corporations as other individuals constantly claim it — a task that not everybody succeeds at, hence null sessions. D) the trolls are a metaphor for what it's like to grow up embedded in United States culture before you gain the quest to be able to break out of the bottom layer and reach the top layer. you are alone psychologically, there are constant threats of being culled from a particular town for being Black or being disabled or being fireable, everyone is mean. Alternia is the ordinary world, earth given Sburb is the special world where heroes go. this might sound shocking to someone who lives in California but it's the strong parallels between trolls and Saiyans (and Gems) and the popularity of these recurring narratives about having to break out of a world of aliens where everyone is terrible that finally sealed it for me. E) Twilight Sparkle is the star student who finds it easy to get to the top layer or special world, and does not realize that a bottom layer of fierce competition exists. the show is presented from her perspective. F) Vegeta is the hero of Dragon Ball. the trolls are the heroes of Homestuck. the griffons are the heroes of MLP. it's only when the people who have every incentive to be mean and kill each other can be turned around to connect each other instead that there can be any heroes. G) the point of these "heroes" isn't that they're mean or reactionary or even that they're peasants or poor. the point of them is that they could split society, and turn on any particular establishment and fight it, but they must choose not to. that's why Trotsky is my favorite example of the person you need to cast as the hero. he's not actually malicious (despite the possibility many people in the conspiracy may have been). he is a very smart individual who was only alienated from the society around him and forced into the process of chunks of society competing against each other because he could not be integrated and turned around to recruit others.

Marxists say that embodied cognition can teach people to take control of matter and society-objects, but most of the time, it seems that embodied cognition actually leads people to thinking that any complicated thing they can't imagine there being a model for is somehow "inherently intuitive", only solvable by intuition and not by philosophy or by math. they will "intuitionize" The Subject, social behavior, populations, freedom, the supposed convergence of different populations into Rhizome, and even non-social objects like quantum fields as supposedly being comprehensible through the natural ability of human beings to fit into society or subpopulations through intuition. the social capacities of humans go out of control, and suddenly everyone thinks that because frequencies and stochastic happenings exist in the universe that the universe is a mind and you can be one with it. really, it's the other way around — the universe is a lot of inanimate objects, and so is society above the individual scale, most likely comprehensible through math just as quantum mechanics is. 
one thing that really opened me up to this problem was Last Dragon Chronicles and the way it managed to present these actually-preposterous concepts in a way that wasn't as annoying as reading some sketchy webpage and in a lot of detail. I really had to ask myself, how would I even feel about it if I lived in that world. I really don't know. I bet the way people would talk about Communist movements would be really weird. let's throw aside a little of the premise for a second and assume that all Communists that exist in Last Dragon Chronicles are sensible and simply want to know how the universe actually works. at some point they're going to find out the universe is inherently intuitive and it's all a bunch of soul and feelings. what are they going to do with that? the thought I have is maybe to focus on the concept in book 3 of each legend being predicted by somebody else who needed it to happen, because that is bizarrely similar to the concept of trying to understand history, even if here the books are working more from a concept of local history than national history. also, what's the endgame. if you understand history are you going to turn into an alien. what is the relationship between Ultraman Series and these books

to be perfectly clear: a zero point energy {{em|is}} something. it's a set of particles or a physical object with energy removed. if there is such a thing as a zero point for mass it has to mean that there is a way to remove mass. and in one sense there might be. an electron and a positron can meet and annihilate and produce gamma rays and mass can go away, though apparently without being totally destroyed. why would a whole field have a positive resting value?

this statement is false on its face because the Russian Empire was not even a stationary combination of heterogeneous elements, it was a destructive opposition of heterogeneous elements. spatial hierarchy: combination of leaders conflated with disunited heterogeneous elements. anhierarchy: jumbled assortment of heterogeneous elements. anarchy: united combination of heterogeneous elements.

I don't think this claim has a wholly sinister connotation that bans the concept of anarchism.

to not fall into this trap and genuinely create an individualism, you'd have to explain how individuals can guarantee their own survival in a world where all individuals are physically in competition to exist and at any moment 1,000 individuals can simply come together and expel any particular individual into having utterly nothing for the most arbitrary of reasons, constantly snapping at the individual that every inch of the world and every object is claimed and owned and how dare you tread on it if they try to run away and go anywhere else. I doubt that that can even be done. all industrial societies are ranked competitions to Belong and Society the best and not Individual or Human the worst, where the individuals that are ranked the highest at creating peace and superficial equality have the greatest chance to reproduce and sort everyone else into exactly the location, job, culture, and identity they are allowed.

AI researchers drive me up the wall. they agonize about how to make AI safe, but like, their models for analyzing societies are already unsafe before any AI arrives. designing policies is nothing like designing an individual agent, because there is a difference between populations and individuals. an individual is not really in balance all by itself, physically it has to take in food and water or it dies. an individual made of information is not any different. it has to digest information constantly to hope to not be out of date. a population can be in balance in some senses but the whole reason populations become biased is that populations are individuals against each other that fail to know everything. this is a weirdly anarchist fallacy. it's anarchological in the same sense christianity is, or Lacanianism is. it's like. they think everything is about individuals. but in reality they don't know what an individual is and they only actually know what a society is, and assume all individuals are tiny societies when they aren't. 
I think sociality has really wrecked the ability of human beings to comprehend the concept of what an individual object even is. there are certain disadvantages to human intelligence and this is one of them. it's not just that humans find patterns everywhere and start seeing supernatural beings, it's also that humans can't intuitively comprehend the concept of people not being part of other people despite all the evidence to the contrary that it is physically possible for people to be socially isolated.

I may have ended up coding this just because of one moment years ago when a Marxist video referred to Trotskyists as "snakes" and it really stuck with me in an indescribable way. I wouldn't say it upset me. it's almost like I found it funny, but not exactly. I was just... thinking about it occasionally, with a weird regularity. I think deep down, I was struck by the deep contrast between how obvious it is to mainstream Marxist-Leninists that Trotskyites can be treasonous conspirators but how completely non-obvious it was to absolutely everyone else, to the extent of changing and shaping the metaphors that people used to describe the situation. in some sense, both had to be true. it had to be true that Trotskyites were snakes, and Trotskyites were not snakes, at the same time. I settled onto the concept that they can be snakes and not be evil, just awkward noodles that sometimes hide themselves in the ground and don't fit in and will bite you if you step on them but aren't necessarily out to get you. 
there's a joke to be had somewhere within the classic United States newspaper cartoon of the snake joining or dying, the motif that things like these hide a secret snake conspiracy, and the Ironblood scenario I had sketched out of Trotskyists being the ones to save the United States in a world where every country eventually invents Communism or Anarchism — "I suppose conspiracies aren't always bad" or something like that

I think there are many different kinds of anarchies but none of them are anywhere near as revolutionary as anarchists believe they are.

I think there are going to be a bunch of different anarchies with a bunch of different names, like there could be Kropotkin processes, etc. and when the results roll in, what we will find is that there are at least three anarchies embedded in Liberal-republicanism and none of them are doing any good, they're all mostly just making people angry and making them want to go back to violence because friendship just isn't working out and is only bringing a lot of stress and toxicity.

"southeast" is in reference to Trotsky appearing in Petrograd and having to make the "journey" to Moscow which would ultimately become the Bolshevik capital after having been the imperial capital. this is being taken as a metaphor for someone who knows little about the real answers Leninism is supposed to find and will have to go on a long "journey" before getting to where Lenin is, just like Buddhist folklore draws a certain distance between the novice and bodhisattva levels which is then compared to the biological or ecological distance between a monkey and a human being. we've got three layers to the analogy now: ecology, Buddhism, and Marxism.

the great problem with defeating capitalism is that capitalism is already a government before it has a State, in the sense that parishes were tax-collecting governments or counties are governments, and the specific kind of government it is is a really bizarre and oppressive anarchism. capitalism is an anarchism, right now, today. it's a government composed of tiny population-society territories and the tiny population-governments of each town or region are formed into an anarchy. it's hard to dismantle the business territories even in the sense of separating them from their owners partly because people really really love anarchies on a visceral level and have a natural revulsion to dismantling any anarchy.

in context of the original poem Yeats speaks of some kind of idea of Zeitgeist and the signs of a society gradually exploding and tearing into nothing, followed by the Christian book of Revelation. the big idea is apathy — the inability of anyone to go on or anything to repair. 
in the context of meta-Marxism, the implication of appropriating this line is that the opposition of "apathy versus passionate intensity" doesn't come from "things falling apart", and instead comes from the system operating as designed. modern societies are anarchies from the beginning, stationary combinations of heterogeneous elements ruled by people deemed superior enough to be kind and wise peacemakers between the chunks. Aang is an inherently bourgeois idea. this false belief that "education", "community" and "niceness" inherently stop chunks from wanting to kill each other comes back to bite people as the inherent structure of the anarchy to begin with is the thing that tears it apart. a mere anarchy is loosed upon the world (anhierarchy) because a mere anarchy was loosed upon the world (anarchy). that's how structures work. if sodium chloride tears apart it's made of sodium and chloride ions. the same is true for chunks of people, which inherently expand and hurt each other unless on a deep internal level of social connection structure they aren't designed that way.

the United States has one big problem that it has never even had a "social-democratic" movement, it's only ever had a "free will" movement. you can attempt to build the nationwide free will party, but the only issue is that it will be terribly incompatible with Marxism because Marxism is based on localized determinism (either lambda-calculus determinism or reterminism), not on Free Will.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="F2">Elections can be separated from society / Politics can be separated from factionality -> one of Liberal-republicanism's biggest mistakes. people in general care more about their affiliation with candidates than they do about issues, if they even care about either. so the widespread assumption that it is possible to talk about political issues without talking about candidates just isn't true. every single issue only makes people think of what faction it's associated with and how much they hate that whole faction of civilians. to get anyone to get along, people have to effectively tell each other to not even think about issues and not even live in democracy while a whole separate layer of representatives is the only group of people who gets to have democracy. democracy is the act of 200 representatives going to Congress and actually having interactions that have some kind of consequences on the country, not the act of voting. and by this standard, China may have about as much democracy as the United States — all the representatives have to meet and work out issues just the same. the only serious difference between the United States and China is that regions of the United States are allowed to spontaneously break into multiple conflicting regions. but this doesn't even bring any advantage to the people that live there, only to the various kinds of representatives that lead factions — capitalists and legislators. all these representatives have a wonderful time breaking apart, acting like it gives them freedom and saves them from the imaginary threat of "Stalinism" or "totalization". but that's something that happens solely in the representative sphere of networkists. networkists cling to fake reasons that people have to be sorted into arbitrary groups drawn based on what's convenient for them. they have to do it because people definitely have to be sorted into groups of some kind, or people will eventually start stirring up local warfare to forcefully create borders as clusters of individuals against clusters of individuals. so they create arbitrary groups of people, taking wild guesses on what people belong together in a voting district when often that's quite a deep philosophical question — would people be less angry if you grouped similar people together possibly resulting in several majority districts and one minority district or if you homogenized people and risked drowning out one of the internal groups? if voting districts had an important role in society more often than every 4 years, this would be quite an open question. people won't be represented if they're surrounded by an overwhelming number of people unlike them. people are best represented when they form into a relatively homogeneous block of people that can do things as an entire group. but if you group people up neatly, you risk handing a bunch of power to Tories just because there can sometimes be so many of them. and that creates this really complicated calculus (which is often neglected by the Liberal-republican system) of how to group together exactly the right people in the right districts each year to get the correct outcome that "looks like democracy". gerrymandering isn't a fluke, it's the actual level where democracy takes place. voting isn't the moment actual choices are made. the actual choices are made at the moment people are put into districts. an election proceeds deterministically from the moment districts are drawn to the moment people vote and the votes are counted. so in a sense, you never save the United States until people are empowered to group themselves into voting district sized units that function in everyday life without the help of special experts.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2" data-submitter="R.D.">Is the division between Stalin's Marxism and Trotskyism part of nature? -> I get the concept of saying that all class conflicts and acts of humans transforming their environment (labor) are part of nature because they're part of human nature or the human animal. that's fine. but I think this concept gets really fuzzy when it comes down to the need to talk about conflicts between human populations which are shearing away from each other and becoming separate nationalities. like, is the emergence of the Trotskyite conspiracy a moment in the greater development of the human animal? that sounds silly. it doesn't sound silly to say that about conflicts between kingdoms or the Russian Revolution, which feels quite significant among hundreds of interesting points in human history. but there is something unique about the Trotskyite conspiracy that makes it feel especially petty and pointless. and my guess is that the reason it feels that way is it's the genuine division of one human population into two separate human populations for arbitrary reasons. things that feel like they're accomplishing something usually happen inside one population, or a set of populations that threatens to forcefully merge, which "effectively" act as one population. but Trotskyism was one of those weird moments when humanity genuinely invented splitting. you can't even say this about countable cultures in general, because there are moments when they come together peacefully and it feels like something was accomplished. early Trotskyism is uniquely pointless in a way very few other things are. 
the one thing about this that does not confuse me is that I think Marx's concept that humanity can understand and control its own development continues to make perfect sense. [https://vidak.substack.com/p/marx-naturalism-anachronism-and-the] you need a new and very different Marxism to put two separate populations together, but it isn't inconceivable when you think about situations where two Marxisms did attempt to form in the same country and thus were already side by side in a sense. Marx says that everything humans do has a certain significance of being an arrangement of social links, even the exchange of food recipes. the conclusion is that in one sense all problems including a population dividing in two come down to the ability to control the overall shape of a collection of social graphs.

the thing that made me stop considering the possibility of an afterlife was just thinking about how previous civilizations had existed and ancient Egyptians had a particular afterlife in mind and probably their own NDEs but for some reason nobody pictures that now or has NDEs about that now and it's very weird that people's internal image of the afterlife would have changed so drastically that we don't even really necessarily know now what the most vivid images of the afterlife would have looked like to them. what's potentially a whole different afterlife just, vanished. of course, maybe if you were an ancient Egyptian exactly what you would have seen in an NDE is returning to earth and flying over it, simply seeing an afterlife where earth continues without you and the soul you have supposedly become coexists invisibly on that same earth. maybe the origins of the ba story are something like that.

this has huge implications for a lot of things including the arts. there's no such thing as art which is pure individual expression independent of other art that exists. there's always a background competition to know exactly what a genre of competing people is "the best, more than other people do" to then be able to participate in it and create something new which both fits into it and impresses people, which gets harder and harder every decade as more things are made and nobody thinks about how many things each generation effectively has to know about. if you trained an AI not on current art but on the premises of all books starting way back in 1800 or so versus what's current, it's actually in question whether biological humans have a long enough memory and attention span to do that task well. this isn't to say AIs are good but it is to say that we dramatically underestimate the role of interactions between individuals in determining what art is versus the role of the individual artist, expression, or "lived experience". the actual emergence of successful art likely looks more like small-scale determinism than some kind of triumph of individual will. think of it this way: can just anyone create a new Chinese word, or do you have to be highly versed in all the nuances and situations of speaking Chinese?

the difficulty of determining the difference between "beginner understandings" and "prejudice" is one of the biggest snags for trying to apply either Existentialism or anarchism. the fact that culture always does have a definition even as it shifts and evolves makes it really difficult to actually create coexistence and tolerance between countable cultures when they will so frequently act offended just because somebody isn't performing their specific rules well and is instead performing a different set of rules well. this shows us that culture is never truly about the content, and is always about the degree of connection between the individual and a particular countable culture — a person at a low rank of fitting-in in one countable culture can easily be at a high rank of fitting-in in another one, thus the sort of "discipline process" of learning to do a culture right and not wrong belongs wholly to one countable culture assigning belonging-ranks to its own individuals, not to the world or to humanity. assuming that prejudice leads to exclusion is therefore a faulty assumption, because prejudice would be cultural content of one culture (example: Southern Baptist Christians excluding gay people), but it isn't the content that actually binds people together, it's their ability to fit together around the same rules into a shared culture-object as individuals. it isn't the fact that people write in Chinese characters that makes them not understand Spanish and say it doesn't look much like Chinese, it's the fact that different people have greater or lesser connection to the connected body of Chinese speakers, which passes around evolving definitions of what is spoken or written Chinese. 
I already feel this concept going a lot more places. just you wait until I come back a little while from now with a killer theory of how the Chinese language is somehow a perfect metaphor for the difference between mainstream Marxism-Leninism and Trotskyism. this concept of all molecular-scale structure being [[Term:Filamentism|Filamentist]] hierarchy until it's Marxism has a really wide scope at the end of the day

this is an easy fallacy to get into when there have been protests because [[E:protest brain|people will think the protests actually cause people to like each other]] and it isn't necessarily true. what changes people and causes them to start solving for themselves more productively is individually being put into a position of having to defend themself from the majority or the most powerful small rings of people, regardless of if anyone else is there with them. the big thing that matters is [[E:Trotsky is your new hero|whether people choose to stay in that disadvantaged position just because it's right]] even if a lot of people there hate them and want to send them back to the reactionary side. you can't make groups of people be nice to each other or be friends, no matter how serious and well-read a schizoanalyst theorist you are. people are going to behave unpredictably to each other and you need to keep them together even as some of them treat each other with utter cruelty and don't behave like friends or comrades at all. it's at that point that either people develop true integrity, sticking to a faction even if everyone on it is terrible purely because they study science and mathematics and look beyond all the confused people around them saying slightly wrong things to seek what's true, or the whole thing crumbles. empathy really doesn't cut it any more in an age where everyone is inherently competing on everything ever including communicating on newsfeeds or getting into subreddits or promoting inclusive minority businesses for just one minority and nobody is friends. community is nothing, materialism is key.

(whether this is true is... complicated. there are some times that would seem true and some times where it would seem really misleading.) the reference video actually gives a material reason in that wealth versus austerity causes the reversion. however, it seems ridiculously easy to argue this same thing without bringing up that legitimate model, and simply go arguing that Bolshevism is one big distraction while Un-Progressive Hierarchies need to be fought on a separate level regardless of whether it is amenable to Bolshevism or squashes Bolshevism. the video used Freud trying to argue the first reason while not realizing Freudian and Jungian models (although Lacanian models less so) are absolutely ripe for arguing the second reason. 
one of the major errors in this video is assuming that Soviet people can control what other countries outside them are doing. they can't. that's di- intelligent design, that's the Shenlong effect. reality experiences the Vegeta effect. when you're standing in the United States, you can't actually say "I'll fix the Soviet Union by changing the United States' Free Will toward Communism", because if you're on the Communist side you don't have access to the non-Communist side's will. to think the two sides will fire off at once without a hitch is basically Trotskyism, or nearly equivalent to it. Trotskyism is traditionally defined as multiple separate countries suddenly synchronizing, but when you define it specifically by its errors versus reality, you see that that error could apply to parts of the same fracturing country as easily as it does to two bigger separate countries. so that's the crux of this. you have to either be in the totally non-Communist movement to change the United States or in the Soviet Union, you can't be in both countries at once.

I don't know how robust it is but it's far more specific than anything Trotsky ever said, so at least it's something.

I laughed at it but at the same time the idea stuck in my mind and kept turning over many times in different permutations to where it had become less like I had anything against the article and more felt like it was a gift in its own way. I got weirdly obsessed with the comparison between Trotsky and religion, how his history messed with every scenario I could imagine of him going to the afterlife and how Trotskyism was or wasn't a similar historical process to Christianity. was he actually a good figure to have on anybody's side as a particular faction? what would it be like if ghosts existed and he haunted the earth?

I think part of the problem is that people very quickly vulgarize "the conditions in another country" into "lived experience" because without already having a historical materialist framework they can't even comprehend what large countable cultures containing causes and effects would look like. 
my thoughts on this: I think people might learn best through the visual language of fantasy books. it's a little more common than not for people to look at a fantasy book and say it's perfectly okay for a particular historical process to happen as it does even if there's collateral damage, while equivocating and complicating the need to overcome a particular conflict is stupid. at the moment people talk about "villains" they kind of almost understand history. 
the only real problem is when people think they understand a historical process and jump up on their high horse as if they were analyzing it through dialectical materialism when they actually aren't, and they've mentally swapped dialectical materialism and filtration. they've created filtration but they've created non-Marxist filtration that isn't amenable to Marxism, and then they take the high ground like, you gotta get on board the historical process, but they've got Lacanianism at best, they don't have Marxism.

Serbs aren't constantly trying to be the only people who can occupy Croatia, because countries are comically big to be doing that — except when it's Palestine.

what's stunning to me is that an event horizon is enough to get Hawking radiation. you'd think from a naïve but grounded understanding of physics that the black hole stuff between the horizon and singularity has to be leading to all the weird properties, hidden variables or not. it's crazy we can see so many things about the event horizon and that black holes aren't more mysterious than they are. why is so much seemingly happening so close to the surface? ordinary stars don't work that way, they have a corona and a center. so why is the black hole so nearly an actual hollow shell. that is so strange

Christians are afraid of crime and rival kingdoms all mysteriously moving around outside, they form into a church. Muslims are afraid of kingdoms conquering each other, they form into a caliphate. capitalism promises "freedom", it practically creates the need for workers to cluster into large corporations so survival will be more predictable and for somebody to be at the head of that corporation predicting everything on the outside so those people can get a paycheck. a Deng Xiaoping state forms when countries have a greater need to be vigilant against war and not make stupid mistakes in their survival than the need to let individuals fight with each other and pursue totally experimental ideas and structures. it follows that when uncertainty goes away, there is a greater potential to republicanize any particular workplace, taking away particular points of authority and handing authority only to "standard procedure".

the thing that bothers me is what people propose the process to actually be. if you define this in a way that supports historical materialism I wouldn't really be able to complain. what bothers me is when people try to define the historical process of colonialism in a way which is distinctly historical non-materialism or historical existentialism. 
if I can be brutally honest for a moment? it reeks of First World privilege for people to think that a bunch of people just standing around and willing something can get people whatever they want. if you have access to lots and lots of money that peasants would clamor over each other to have, or your gigantic continental government has access to all that money supposedly, of course you can have whatever you want. of course it will seem like anyone who does anything but beg owners of giant local-state-sized swaths of industry to pay money to support anything else when paying it would take away their ability to make more ability to help "clearly" doesn't understand history and "clearly" isn't doing anything productive. clearly, history gets less violent as all the power funnels into the United States and all the other countries lose their governments and everyone can just vote on things but they have to be White. and everybody else is stupid. everyone who's a peasant and hasn't created capitalism only has to work harder to be able to vote in about 50 years. but the cherry on top is that if the whole world knits together into Liberal-republicanism it will spend its time dividing in two and generating blood feuds just so it's supposedly "fair" and isn't "totalitarian".

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Liberal-republicanism regulates endocolonialism / There is an endocolonialism process which operates based on different coherent subpopulations nominating experts to advise them and make their laws but then in order to achieve any unity between subpopulations whatsoever, having to fight over which political subpopulation acts as the ruling ethnic group of the empire holding empire over the other politically-defined ethnic groups, and Liberal-republicanism regulates this to keep it from turning into a permanent physical Britain-versus-India style colonialism -> if this is true, then Third World countries are predisposed to Marxism because they don't have the process of endocolonialism that First World countries have, at least not the one that leads to the creation of Liberal-republicanism. 
point in favor of this: historically, empire is the simplest way to join populations. empire joined the fracturing populations of Germany, England, China, Japan, old Korea, India, the list goes on and on. so if Liberal-republicanism is absurdly simple, too simple to possibly work, that it would devolve into humanity's simplest method of joining large populations is not surprising. none of these were colonialism yet. that only started to develop when two populations could smash into each other, like European empires and North American tribes. but what if two majority-ethnicity populations were smashing into each other and trying to expand over each other and siphon away each other's land inside a kingdom? well, then that could potentially be colonialism.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Liberal-republicanism cannot be decolonized / Endocolonialism cannot be removed from Liberal-republicanism as long as the latter exists -> note the "endo-". this doesn't mean reparations can't exist. reparations are in response to a past exocolonialism. endocolonialism refers to colonialism basically being identifiable inside a group solely consisting of White people, for instance, a group that's all-British, or all-Dutch, though probably not all-Irish. a group that's all-Japanese, or all-Italian, and has not yet smashed into any particular foreign country it is trying to brutalize but already contains colonialism inside it anyway. that's endocolonialism. from a Materialist point of view it's tempting to say it doesn't exist in order to say it's referring to something else that does exist. but in the end, that's meta-ontologically dishonest. if people are getting stirred up about "colonialism" they won't shut up until you tell them how to stop "colonialism". so it's more meta-ontologically sound to tell them they're talking about "endocolonialism" and that nobody actually knows what that is. also that, really, it's utterly necessary to create a historical materialism of some kind to explain endocolonialism. to explain how something entirely inside a group of White people leads to exocolonialism you very much need a theory of material cause and effect which actually shows how small scales lead up to larger scales and how surrounding patterns can change smaller scales to produce different large-scale events. "ideas, attitudes" won't cut it; you really have to know and predict what each idea produces in reality to know whether any idea will be useful.

I'm surprised that half of all dystopia books aren't already written this way, considering the way every educated person reports on life in their own country. is it that dystopia is softly assumed to only happen elsewhere, even when it supposedly takes place in the author's country? is it that an instance of the United States which has fallen is considered a foreign country?

Christianity has always said it's not about prejudice because anyone can become Christian and if they would just become Christian and simultaneously abandon all other religion and magic ritual the world could be united. Trotskyism makes essentially the same error, coercing anarchists and mainstream Marxists-Leninists into Trotskyism just because of the vacuous truth that if everyone was Trotskyist everyone would be Trotskyist. does most Liberal-republicanism or anarchism have a grounding which is any better than this? is any of it prepared for the possibility that somebody genuinely does not want to be part of a particular group of people, and all the "community" and "anti-prejudice" you can manage wouldn't be enough to fix that? "dem"-"ocracy" is just fine if people are part of the Demos in the first place, but what if they aren't? what do you do when there are multiple separate Demotes that distinctly don't want to be controlled by each other as a matter of national autonomy and self-determination?

I think one possible starting point is the proposition that art must represent its audience rather than its author. that way you rule out art getting to be racist just because a bunch of White people had unique experiences and are such good artists that are so good at being unique individuals that we don't need Media Representation — people absolutely will say this if you let them. all the spontaneity and biographical detail and seconds and minutes of irreplaceable Lived Experience you can muster means nothing if it doesn't represent the audience rather than the author.

I do think artistic abstraction exists. also... it looks like this book is largely an attempt to justify fiction as memoir. I think that's dangerous when it comes to the role of fiction as "education". if a country contains 90% one ethnic group and 10% another one, you want about the top 80% of people making art that's almost totally abstracted from real life, or art simply becomes softly racist as everybody gets flooded with the experiences of one particular ethnic group. it's really much better to have White people focusing all their energy into things like {{book|Harry Potter}} and {{book|Warriors}} so there's space for minorities to write all the more biographical stories that actually manage to teach people about experiences they haven't had.

"the first" Trotskyism was mostly composed of anticommunists but anyone can take it and fill it with workers (assuming they have unreal levels of skill, of course), so it's harder to categorically say that Trotskyism itself is anticommunist even despite all the times it's wrong. similarly Western-Marxism can be wrong a whole lot of the time but not necessarily always malicious.

I quite literally heard about Engels' work as good from mainstream Marxist-Leninists and Trotskyist pages, as a non-Communist, before I ever heard this one. I think that really goes to show what an utter bubble disconnected from ordinary people "the New Left" actually lives in. like, my whole life I've been a socially isolated nerd, but somehow I've never been as isolated in a remote ivory tower as The New Left, to the point I heard "correct" Marxism before I ever really heard of them. Richard Wolff is the only exception where I had any contact at all with anticommunist Western-Marxists and their theory. and as far as I can remember he never managed to confuse me and make me think that what he was doing was remotely the same thing as Bolshevism. I think it was always relatively intuitive to me that "Marxism" and "Western Marxism" were potentially different things. so it is particularly puzzling to me that anybody could think that early Western-Marxism is the one true Marxism. if you have the slightest bit of intuition for [[E:duplexing|duplexing]] or meta-Marxism you'd at least realize that there isn't one true Marxism in that specific sense, and realize that instead there are always plural Marxisms. what stops us from this? is it imperialism? is it the tendency to think that because White culture is the only culture that ever existed and Marxism seeks to find the one correct model of the world, this means Western-Marxism must be the only Marxism? 
the one thing that always makes Western Marxism so complicated for me is it's the favorite Marxism for minorities to appropriate to claim that Marxism is the best theory for, and solely designed for, ridding the United States of racism. you have one faction of people which is appropriating Gramsci and Marcuse to claim that Marxism is a theory of anti-racism, and then you have one faction of people who is using the same theorists to claim almost literally that Russians are inherently bad and Bolshevism could never succeed because of bad Russian culture that isn't White culture — you see, even if Russians look White they can't possibly be White because they don't have Democracy. which is a cultural idea, not a practiced material structure that could exist within Bolshevism. they oppressed a single individual with the correct ideas instead of including him through tent of freedom poles and that means that Russians are a savage race that must be fought by real White people until they physically include White individuals with good ideas in their society. this is not neocolonialism, it's just Democracy.

I feel like all the propositions about queer identity which are distinctly neutral are a bit insulted by always being shown in blue or sometimes in charcoal when I've also started casting that very negatively. I don't think the association with Existentialism or anarchism means it's bad to be LGBT+ or to create things that primarily revolve around that — it's not bad to create a gay nightclub or a lesbian romance book or a circle of {{book|Deltarune}} fans just because those things "aren't Marxist" or whatever. this can get a little confusing because while it's pretty obvious to say it's not against Marxism to be Chinese or North Korean, LGBT+ identity has always been very political and has always been this weird sort of tiny national identity inherently created through the practice of anarchism, as if just like you need to read a Liberal-republican civics book to successfully be United-States you have to read an anarchist civics book to successfully be LGBT+. I think a philosophical tradition code is appropriate to reconcile this weird blend of identity and culture which is fine and intertwined politics.

note: I think this one is neat. it's one of those things that's broadly right even if it's right for slightly incorrect reasons. the action of populations against each other sorts individuals into genders, racial groupings, and so forth; under the model of structuralist linguistics you see the words man and woman or masculine and feminine shift in relation to each other as the populations shift. so...

Lacanian discipline doesn't sound so good now, does it? now let's say we take Stalin's Marxism and duplex it. two different countries unite the proletariat and form Marxist parties and become workers' states. however, if the two countries have totally different ideas of what is in favor of the proletariat in any particular country, each country's party will become incapable of contributing to freeing the world proletariat.

I think it was one of the basic theorists like Marx, Engels, or Lenin but I do not remember. 
here are my thoughts on this: abstract concepts don't have to exist in nature to be useful. but freedom is in entirely another category from something like, say, irrational numbers or [[E:Is topology a threat to Marxism?|topological spaces]]. you can learn tons and tons of math and it could be all of it is only useful to creating a workers' state and bringing people together and none of it is harmful. but if you have the wrong model of freedom it could lead you to destroy society, divide populations from each other, or even start a war. I'm not confident there is no model of freedom which is safe. all I know on that is that everyone in the United States always uses the bad ones, even anarchists use bad ones, and I am really tired of those.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">If free will doesn't exist, what did Trotsky exercise? -> in the United States and sometimes in Britain, Trotsky is the prototypical example of why "freedom", "dialogue" or "debate", and "pluralism" are supposedly important, and why supposedly "letting factions turn into a totalitarian state" is bad. I think it's no exaggeration to say he has fully been integrated and appropriated into Liberal-republicanism right next to Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and John Stuart Mill. this makes about as much sense as Christians reading off versions of Jewish scripture copied in by Jewish Christians and appropriated by the Roman Empire — maybe it did at one point in history, but it makes no sense today. the crux of that entire appropriation process lies in the concept of Freedom. Trotsky can be appropriated by right-Liberalism because he supposedly demonstrates what it means to be free, and to exert one's will to become free. and what do we call that? it would seem to be one of the most clear-cut demonstrations of whether "free will" does or doesn't exist. if you do believe Free Will exists, you'll say Trotsky turned away from the Soviet Union because he has Free Will, partly defined as the physical and psychological autonomy from the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. if you don't believe Free Will exists, you'll have a much longer and surely much more interesting account of exactly why Trotsky didn't turn around and reintegrate himself with the only country and political faction that had ever suited him. 
I remember some Marxist text saying "freedom can be important even if it doesn't exist in nature". and ever since then I've been doubting that claim, going, okay, but if we assume nature doesn't refer to wolf packs and it refers to things like geological processes, chemical reactions, Newtonian mechanics, and general relativity, isn't it important to know what freedom really is or fails to be as it fails to exist within the whole universe? if we don't answer that question it's super easy to turn freedom around against the world proletariat and use it as a weapon to lead everyone into "[[E:undialectical idealism, historical non-materialism, and class non-analysis|undialectical idealism]]". this is how the Cold War, or the first phase of the forever cold war, was won. the major tactic has been to take these very particular constructs like "freedom" and "community", which are each described with models that are probably wrong, and unite all the bourgeoisie around them and then unite everyone else to the bourgeoisie around Freedom and Community specifically because they want Freedom and Community. the French Revolution didn't just happen once, it's a nasty process that regenerates itself over and over far beyond the point it's harmful.

I'd add that this is because I think transgender identity is partly material, but I don't even think that matters at all for this discussion, I think the Susie example nails it pretty well. you have to have this minimum amount of choice (insert Deltarune joke here) in what you are or what identity group you are standing in for something to be culture. you take Trotsky and him identifying as a Trotskyist might fairly be called culture because he chose to be there. but having a gender identity is mostly not chosen, it's only the last bit of uncertainty in what group of people they want to hang around that people have to choose to collapse.

I think this is how racism actually functions these days. it's actually people hating poor people and anarchists rather than an ethnic group. the problem is, how do you persuade people not to hate anarchists when, depending on the anarchism, anarchists are actually raiding retail stores, making sure books and movies are only available unlawfully, and not respecting the concepts of money and labor? it's hard not to descend into a world where people scan for the slightest trace of a signifier of anarchism to immediately oppress.

let's make it really simple: a group of cats that doesn't understand the benefits of getting along with other cats forms into ShadowClan. it's not like the first arc of {{book|Warriors}}, and the ShadowClan cats help each other out in order to survive. then they casually treat the other clans in awful ways and try to take over their territories. are "society", "community", and so-called "[[E:a crumb of socialism|social-ism]]" inherently good things, or are they instead potentially bad things that [[E:the community delusion|blind everyone]] to [[:Category:Historical materialism ontology (general-sense)|the real way]] pluralities of societies function against each other?

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">State education is Lacanian discipline -> this is basically assumed in any non-Marxist theory that thinks having classes about the history of racism will fix everyone's problems. the first question anyone should ask when somebody doesn't believe in historical materialism and calls it "predicting history" is: okay, if history classes aren't about predicting what general things could happen in the future then what is the purpose of teaching history classes? out in the real world, it might take you a while to genuinely get a straight answer. but I feel like what is waiting at the bottom of that conversation is this. people think of all behavior in terms of bad things your father or your sister or your classmates or your teacher [[E:no of The Father|told you not to do]]. accordingly they think all behaviors identified as good or bad can be taught this way, in a kind of rote memorization of what's good and bad. of course, there are deep flaws in this. what if people think speaking Spanish is a bad behavior, or "looking gay"? there is no real distinction between behaviors that are prohibited because they are actually bad and behaviors that are prohibited purely to make people obey some arbitrary cultural standard that everyone was arbitrarily taught, and if somebody is even once scolded for a behavior that isn't actually harmful that person will get deeply upset and start to drift out of society and turn against every group of people that scolded them improperly. and unfortunately, reactionaries are always the people most able to productively apply this finding. every single time you scold a single Tory-leaning White person for something which is ultimately neutral you'll get hundreds of thousands of Tories standing up to you on what you "did" to the Tory subpopulation. 
I have always leaned toward the idea that a lot of Tories would be much better at learning historical materialism than they would be at learning "diversity and inclusion" or "anti-racism". if you teach people about whole countries and to portray whole countries correctly as a material process, or to think about subpopulations inside their own country similarly, they'll eventually understand how to give realistic portrayals of people from other populations. if you just pound them over the head with "bad bad bad" for every single tiny mistake they will have a hard time learning the correct picture that's far far bigger and more complex than any of the individual scoldings. it's like seeing somebody not understand general relativity and scolding them for not being able to give an entire presentation about how the scale of photons leads up to time and why single-variable equations may be bad for modeling the universe "because everybody should know that". especially when there is such a contradiction between nice words like "sensitivity" and "inclusion" and the crude, almost barbaric methods of enforcing them that are not at all based in Lived Experience or empathy and as far as I can tell can't teach them.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Every nation is an ethnic group / An ethnic group is an arrangement of one or more countable groups of people each graphed together around shared social relationships and culture, and every consistent group of people which stays together for a long time will become some kind of ethnic group -> this is one of my single biggest problems with anarchism. anarchism finds the concept of ethnic groups yucky, and in order to try to get rid of racism keeps trying to act like it's totally artificial. but most anarchist theory which isn't totally unconvincing is based on tribal societies. and what are tribal societies if not ethnic groups? Black versus White might not be a necessary ethnic grouping, but when you form people into a tribe of anarchists or the Democrat nation that is going to become an ethnic group. Marxists are not afraid of the fact that a revolution or re-forming of a society creates an ethnic group. they just say, here is the Ukrainian SSR and here is the Lithuanian SSR and they are not enemies, and call it a day. anarchists seem to find this almost some kind of inconceivable injustice. it's like they think that all individuals on earth naturally want to form together into bigger populations but they don't want to acknowledge that there is anything that binds particular people together against outside threat or against having to be in a group they don't want to be in, when there totally is. everybody could just not be racist and people would still want to form into specific groups for particular reasons, not to just form together with any group of people at random. this is the basic origin of ethnic groups. that people are fundamentally plural based on having stronger links to some people than other people that divide them into separate graphs. this plurality doesn't prevent forming ethnic groups into larger ethnic groups or forming very large ethnic groups like a huge area of Russians, but you have to acknowledge that it's there. every successful group of people that becomes a country for any significant period of time is basically an ethnic group going by the simplest and most inclusive, non-judgemental definition of what an ethnic group is. for any group of people to have freedom or independence there has to be an ethnic group, and it's the graph connections inside the ethnic group that create a country, not the definition of an area of land or some long line called the national border. 
it follows from this claim that smaller groups of people which do not easily form into a larger ethnic group organically will not do well at forming a country, or a "democracy". only correct arrangement of cultures into cultures into cultures actually promotes a healthy ethnic group which in turn promotes a healthy republic.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The proletariat has three scales / There are three scales of the proletariat / There are three scales at which the proletariat is divided: the corporate scale, the scale of countable cultures, and the republican scale 
this statement is false if there is a distinct fourth or fifth scale which is fully separate from either of these. for instance, I find religion hard to separate from countable cultures, I think those are the same thing, and I find political factions hard to separate from countable cultures. countable cultures can overlap or contain each other but that alone doesn't mean there is another countable scale. the republican scale is an entire nation-state such as "the United States" or "China". during events like the Trotskyite conspiracy the national scale will be challenged but a full nation-state is not created yet, so it's the countable culture scale.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The proletariat is identical with {{TTS|html=abbr|cultures|cultures|title=countable culture-populations}} / The proletariat is identical with countable cultures (cultures, countable culture-populations; meta-Marxism) -> the claim that Marxists have been interpreting what the proletariat is slightly incorrectly, because while many people assume the proletariat merely emerges inside existing populations, the reality hypothesized here is that the proletariat is populations. the proletariat is the state of the people of a population being graphed together into a population, with the plurality and physical gaps between populations being part of the definition of what the proletariat is — or to be more precise, what proletariats are. Liberal-republicans get horrified by Bolshevism because they think that when all the people in a country are graphed together things are going backward, but they don't realize that if you remove the bourgeoisie, people graphed into Lithuania and graphed into Estonia and graphed into Russia is exactly the kind of structure that remains, the 14 separate republics each graphed together into a single population and government are a large part of what the proletariat is; the only thing missing from that definition is the potential for any particular proletariat to split into smaller proletariats at any time for a complicated variety of reasons. 
there is a particular reason people haven't discovered this. people want to think of the proletariat as a simple collection of millions of tiny objects called proletarians, when they don't realize that what they're really looking for is the whole group of proletarians being one big object yet one object which does not cover the world. Lenin got this correct, by mobilizing the proletariat with people of different classes and movements to all form a nation-wide movement. this is one example of correctly understanding the proletariat as the overall population of Georgia, etc., when it is in its purest form. what causes huge problems is when individual countries [[E:multicapitalism|break into multiple proletariats]]. practically speaking, they will behave like they are different countries even though there is no mechanism for them to operate as different countries and even if they are horribly scattered so one "country" is mixed into every fifty people of another "country". 
anarchists have this very wrong idea that culture-populations are natural (so far so good) but also that culture-populations naturally want to merge together and coexist, and a lack of Freedom is the only thing preventing this. this is wrong. there can be two Iroquois tribes with all the freedom in the world and one day people in one tribe can just start killing people in the other. the tribes don't actually coexist until they solidly form a combined structure capable of regulating them which they are obligated to be part of and can't secede from. the moment two countable cultures don't effectively reciprocally own each other and they gain freedom they have the capacity to kill. you absolutely can't conceptualize colonialism and "bad governments" as a matter of freedom, it just doesn't work that way. the worst thing is that at the republican scale it's sometimes hard to even force populations to reciprocally own each other. sometimes populations are simply big enough and self-sufficient enough they'll tear away from you and out of the reciprocal ownership. so, the ideal scenario is that Ukraine agrees to reciprocal ownership with the Soviet Union, but if Ukraine tears out of its own will to support some reactionary group of people, then people have not naturally merged together and anarchism is false. it doesn't mean anarchism is true. it means something more like that anarchism is false but fascism is true. a group of human beings joined around culture and [[E:poetry (flair)|poetry]] and hope hard enough simply cannot be controlled and will fight you to the death, and at least win its own life if it has strong enough structures and tight enough internal links. this is people's genuine free will, not a corruption of it. so inasmuch as free will exists at all the only good answer is that free will is bad. freedom is one big nothing burger that goes many roads but ends up nowhere, and free will is bad because it is anti-science and anti-reality. free will is Susie sitting in the middle of her decrepit room hallucinating Image_Friend.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Homelessness is not a proletarian issue / Homelessness is fundamentally an issue created and faced by the bourgeoisie which is only handed down to the proletariat -> this is going to deeply confuse and maybe upset some people, until they understand the rather complicated model I'm trying to describe and begin calmly evaluating the whole model as accurate or inaccurate. so, here goes. homelessness results from a low availability of houses. a low availability of houses results directly from people not having the income to pay for houses. you can blame landlords, but you don't have control over their minds or how they behave; the baseline state is that nobody has any power to stop landlords. in the age of capitalism, people can accumulate power over landlords when they have the power to produce an income, and otherwise they lose power quickly. whether people have the power to produce an income largely depends on bad decisions by the bourgeoisie. the bourgeoisie are always making various bad decisions like abolishing corporate departments and laying off hundreds of people, chopping up big businesses into small businesses, opening teeny tiny businesses that will die in a year, making their corporation entirely about a particular circle of White people that won't let in Black people and acting still like whatever a corporation does or does not do is a matter of Freedom, requiring unrealistic amounts of experience for an entry level job, hiring only overqualified people and softly extinguishing the proletariat rather than figuring out how to put everyone to work, and so on, and so forth, not to mention the people who end up pushed out of capitalism by all these bad decisions and are forced to create new tiny businesses and become owners just because the existing corporations wouldn't let them in — these people are a little less bad but they can make plenty of harmful mistakes too. capitalism is so broken now that the whole thing has been slowly dissolving into just the bourgeoisie versus the bourgeoisie. one side of it is the bourgeoisie who make terrible decisions and refuse to analyze and direct populational development with science. one side of it is the bourgeoisie who have been manufactured by these terrible decisions and have little chance of ever becoming workers again unless we fix the overall science and bad decisions crisis. the blue bourgeoisie, and the strawberry bourgeoisie. it isn't really about actual class divisions now. it's about uniting all the strawberry-tinted people and keeping them as tightly connected as possible just so they can survive and stand up to the people who keep them all from surviving, just so the strawberry-tinted people won't watch their teeny businesses crumble or so they can get apartments, just so people can ever have the faintest hope of having a reform movement or a "democratic" anything. homelessness is not a proletarian issue any more, it's just strawberry. it's just strawberry and crimson against blue and brown.

I feel like in a better world we'd teach every single "progressive" degree and several others about Gödel's incompleteness theorem, maybe you'd even learn it in high school. we'd teach high school students that only observations can actually lead to knowledge, not logic or reasoning. funny enough I think that might knock more people out of religion than something like teaching evolution, just because people would actually realize that things they see when all alone probably aren't real.

this is where the model of abandoning "The West versus The East" in favor of "First World countries versus Third World countries" really has an advantage. you don't need to say "Japan is a Western nation" or "China has Westernized" where the axis of capitalist alliances between First World countries is the actual thing uniting them against countries that suffer imperialism rather than "culture".

I had to think for a moment about what this should be called. usually I associate the Material System of Bolshevism with Lenin, but if you're trying to distinguish between Marxism and Marxism-Leninism then Lenin is often associated with revolution. after thinking a moment I realized that nobody likes Stalin and nobody likes Stalin almost specifically because Stalin's government actually made people build the Material System of Bolshevism instead of letting everyone flow around like helium atoms. so I think these processes are quite fairly called Stalin processes.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Class is development, not wealth -> many Marxists accidentally fall into the wealth-brain trap where petty bourgeoisie are essentially bad because they have wealth, or the ability to buy education and be educated. this isn't what classes are. classes come from the development of enduring structure. a king only exists because a bunch of people are arranged into a kingdom. a count only exists because people are arranged into some kind of town that the count is vital to or into some centrally-drawn county within a feudal order. a capitalist only exists because people are arranged into a corporation. so there are two ways for the capitalist to not exist: the corporation being absorbed into something bigger so the capitalist has no role in creating it, or the whole corporation dissolving and leaving nothing. the corollary of this statement is that if capitalism shatters and a bunch of petty bourgeoisie are created in order for people in a "corporation desert" to survive, it's not specifically a matter of a population being "privileged" or "greedy" or "colonial, full of the colonizer attitude" or "sinful", it's simply a population going backwards in development which needs some way to develop forwards.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="F2">The proletariat and bourgeoisie are diametrically opposed -> strictly speaking, this is not always true. for instance, there can be times where both the proletariat and the bourgeoisie have an interest in creating a functioning business structure and making sure it doesn't collapse and leave all the workers unemployed. this is especially true for Director types that are earning significant salaries for actually designing things about the business territory or the individual project to the point of indirectly putting workers into roles or firing workers. let's look at MrEnter trying to create a TV show: he has elaborate plans for practically everything in the TV show, and he only needs to put people into place storyboarding and animating things he has already designed. in terms of having created the project and being the one who will take it to market he should be the capitalist. but he makes a lot of decisions to the point his decisions can affect whether the show succeeds or fails and whether he practically has the money to pay his workers or a simple debt to them. there is a significant problem today, especially as big businesses spontaneously collapse, of a lot of businesses reverting back to a state where the capitalist and the worker are not very differentiated. they're just two peasants bound together both trying very hard to produce something. this makes it hard to apply traditional models of "the capitalist is purely a landlord and the workers can take over"; no, capitalists are sometimes doing just enough real work ordinary people get genuinely confused what a worker is. this isn't just the case in the arts. it's easy for there to be a small restaurant or a small thrift store where the owner still makes a lot of actual day-to-day decisions that could sink or float the workplace itself, and where even lists of union demands across ten tiny thrift stores might not operate fast enough to save it. the union turns into a crude hammer or axe operating on a scalpel-level task — although to be perfectly clear the surgeon is blind. nobody has the ability to both do the task and look at the task at the same time. this has led to a lot of wrong interpretations of unions — that unions are a bunch of [[E:tent of freedom poles|freedom poles]] uniting specifically for freedom, that workers primarily gain the ability to do their job through more and more freedom and not because of any structure or guidance, that if a ring of producing-capitalists strikes it's a gain for workers, that some workers "just don't know what producing-capitalists go through",

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Workers and capitalists sometimes have the same interests / The proletariat and bourgeoisie occasionally have the same interests -> this better covers unusual edge cases like North Korea or China where there can really be a situation where workers and owners have to all stand together against outside countries trying to own their country and take away their right to have a national government, even if outside countries have turned the world into a forever cold war where it's not a thing where you can do it for a short while and then stop. people can also argue over whether workers and owners ever have the same interests just because they both have to organize a Liberal-republican law for Black rights or similar. I'm still not over a contemporary Marxist theorist I will not name saying "workers and owners are diametrically opposed" "you have to detach everyone from the bourgeoisie that run the Democratic Party" and then "we have to build a social-democratic movement, I organize with landlords". one of those statements is wrong. I think it's actually the first one. I think the general concept of creating a large-scale movement of some kind before you try to [[Term:filtration|filter]] it is right. but I think the statement that workers and owners are neatly opposed is wrong. you wouldn't be able to get every single bourgeois assembling-people organizer into your movement and build a "social-democratic party" if they all consciously knew it was against them and that all the workers ultimately just wanted to get rid of them. so the question becomes, is social-democracy nothing more than a useful lie? if it's something more than a useful lie, there have to be solid material reasons for the bourgeoisie to support a nationwide movement where they largely stand to lose something and take on precarity rather than to gain something.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Code is culture / Code is law -> "code is law" doesn't capture the problem sufficiently. much code has to actively be interacted with and read by non-programmers, or people who become programmers. whenever anybody else has to interact with code it turns into a chain of signifiers, and turns into communication. the same is also true for user interfaces or any expectations on how a program or operating system is used. huamn beings have an [[E:Able-bodied programmers are assholes|inherent expectation]] that all culture already exists and doesn't require labor to create. this inherent expectation is wrong, as it is very often true that people have to actively create culture with labor and yet can easily make wrong decisions on where to put their labor purely because they do not have enough information about who is going to use it. corporations inherently generate dissatisfaction by having to build things in private, although at some times gigantic corporations inherently generate satisfaction by already having a customer base that they can feasibly learn from; non-accessibility is the [[E:shovel dream|shovel dream]] of people creating things while fragmented into tiny groups, which simply cannot see anything outside them as a practical matter, not a matter of deliberate prejudices. sometimes this has some very nasty consequences: if you truly wish to build something which is inclusive and equally accessible to anyone it may end up rather low-tech and behind the times for quite a long while while you troubleshoot every possible thing that could alienate an individual from participating and only very slowly update everything when it's clear that everyone can use it. some people will become lost specifically by how low-tech and manual-labor the project is. a few of those people might be disabled people who require technology to perform an assistive role, but which wasn't the assistive technology you expected. there is a tradeoff between actively [[E:Nothing should be done unless everybody considers it wonderful|not doing anything if someone wouldn't think it wonderful]] and trying to use good judgement based on a small group's local or individual tastes hoping it will be less alienating than doing nothing because it was designed for at least one real live human, not a mindless deterministic lambda function of [[E:What if you were the variable x?|several unknown people interacting]].

I'm not positive on that. I'll say this. Marxism survives when China merely keeps existing and nothing can destroy the most basic first steps of Marxism from the outside. Marxism also potentially survives when a relatively large area of industry emerges which is impossible to break apart, where the people don't forsake building any of it just because somebody gave them an offer to migrate somewhere better, and it fills up with workers. I said once in MDem drafts: once something becomes so big it's a whole population it decides what is legal, the people surrounding it don't determine what's legal or okay. but I also think that doesn't happen unless the inside of that area is genuinely strong and hard to break up. a statement that "we choose to allow empty houses" doesn't by itself create a population that strong.

I have no idea if it's true. but I am very tired of every anarchist and Western-Marxist trying to claim that television or billboards or social media platforms stand between people and taking action. I know that in some way that claim is very misleading. I think one reasonable hypothesis is that what actually happens is people are connected to the wrong people rather than the right people. simply being connected to reactionary relatives and living in a scarcity of jobs where there are no good places to move to and no workers to meet each day has a far greater effect than "phones" could ever have. in this sense you can argue that everybody normalizing breaking social bonds to be "free" or to "find success" tosses people into a world where they interact mostly with capitalism rather than any organic social connections and if their brain is functioning at all they will grow to hate it in less than a decade. the problem is that this only really manufactures theorists, not workers, because the kinds of people who get the most atomized aren't workers to begin with — by meta-Marxist definitions they're either petty bourgeoisie tearing into a multicapitalism which could theoretically one day lead a plural Marxism, or the Refuse class.

I guess one big factor is simply that one wolf has as many as 6 young, so you start with 7 mother wolves and you can end up with 42; a few leads to many of them. it really makes you think though, if you're writing an imaginary story akin to {{book|Warriors}} why would LGBT+ characters be a problem. once the pups are there you need somebody to raise those 6 pups. they won't really care who is there to protect them from being trampled or lead them out of a hunter area.

I think the sheer concept of tents of freedom poles taken on its own level is enough to do it. I think the sheer activity of telling people about the French Revolution and implying tents of freedom poles by itself can lead people to the wrong ideologies and away from the correct ones. this is because "tents of freedom poles" is a [[:Category:Bauplan ontologies|civilizational shape model]]. civilizational shape models exist below the level of abstract concepts, as if they were actual arrangements of classes. center-Liberals never supported the bourgeoisie just because they liked the bourgeoisie, and instead, propagating Existentialism is the new face of supporting the bourgeoisie.

"a-culture-ism" appears to develop when anarchists are trying to find ways to break up material structures they consider hierarchical and then they realize that the structures are composed of groups of people bound together with toxic culture, so, applying the Idealist frameworks they don't like to abandon, they start declaring that the first step to forming an anarchist movement is to defeat "culture" and the ideas behind the ideas behind the ideas behind the prejudices behind the ideas in people's heads. it seems like this same concept leaches into Western Marxism just because everyone is actually anarchists or Existentialists before they become Marxists and they never quite figure out how to think entirely like Marxists and stop being anarchists.

China manages to hold back the billionaires with what is effectively a very similar structure to the United States, billionaires actually go to prison when they do something bad, but you need experts to run it which all amount to the petty bourgeoisie. so is China a dictatorship of the proletariat just because it has an intact party-nation of Marxist theorists? arguably, no, it is a Marxist party-nation but a party-nation isn't the same as a successful dictatorship of the proletariat, it's just the first step out of the utter suffering of Liberalism. Menshevism is not a bourgeois reform, literally forming China and giving it the power to violently suppress the bourgeoisie with weapons if truly necessary but it's nearly the same as the United States is the bourgeois reform, and the only reason we don't realize that is that we don't want to admit there are multiple bourgeoisies that utterly hate each other like inhuman carrion piles and so it's truly necessary for people to divide into plural areas of bourgeois control no matter what people want to think. the border of the wolf pack or lion pride is the dangerous part, not the high-ranking adults. that said. here is how I think the order goes: national independence; defeating Liberal-republicanism and creating party-nation; not creating capitalism; creating Bolshevism; dictatorship of the proletariat; age of multi-Bolshevism; hypothetical age of poly-Bolshevism. this is the order of discovering what theories are good theories, whether or not it's the actual order of history.

[[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialism]] was everywhere, and this concept that people will automatically flip over and change their minds if you only shout individuals individuals human rights identities individuals that is an individual you are an individual identity identity people like each other because they are different enough. in the beginning when I was literally a [[E:right-Liberalism|right-Libertarian]] that made some kind of sense to me, but as soon as I started actually not being a conservative all of it increasingly made less and less sense until I was like, where did any of this even come from and how does anyone even think it's correct? I read non-Marxist texts like I was supposed to and none of them made any sense, so I just kept digging and digging and digging on every single lead I could find anywhere to try to figure out where any of this philosophy coherently originated from whether people were creating it consciously or not. most of my research focused only on the past decade and how people could derive ideologies from scratch. but most recently, [[E:U.S. antiwar movements have always been Idealist|I realized]] that past United States antiwar movements had already been this. past large-scale movements in the United States had had the shape of anarchist Idealism, and not at all the shape of Marxism. finally, the outpouring of works like <cite>Undertale</cite> and <cite>Steven Universe</cite> started to make sense. the exact way they were portraying the notion of breaking up war was based on things like the Vietnam War period, in which despite the war being against Communism it wasn't actually Communists trying to stop it. and I'm not just saying the obvious fact of "a Marxist movement isn't mostly made of Marxists", what I'm saying is, "it's as if the whole entire movement was not Marxist and anarchists were forming the theorist layer and trying to form the party-nation". nobody will ever be able to do historical materialism again if we don't understand workers' movements as plural bodies of people with different colors of theorists on top that realize different kinds of countries. incidentally yeah I think Trotsky accidentally set the whole world back purely by claiming workers didn't really belong to plural countries or plural workers' states. come on, Trotsky, [[E:sea of free-floating entities|every object is plural]].

By Jake's definition, no anti-war movement in the United States has ever been a Marxist movement -> this really struck me when reading a book that was accidentally about the Vietnam War. the entire framing of the thing for normal people (and by that I do mean the bourgeoisie that represent them) was morality and basically the notion of war being a social construct and a thing that every individual has to choose to drop or sustain some kind of attack. there's not really any Marxism in there; that could quite easily devolve into a nationality of anarchists attacking a nationality of Liberal-republicans just for being part of the wrong nationality and not immediately assimilating into anarchism. and when you think of things this way, that previous antiwar movements in the United States are United States antiwar movements, you start to really see how "the left we have" being "non-Marxist" is a lot more than a color swatch, and in practice means that when United States people practice "revolutionary defeatism" the population is pursuing a totally different transition out of capitalism than what any Marxist strategy looks like assuming it pursues one at all. if you want people to work with "the left we have" you have to get comfortable with the concept of a [[Term:charcoal transition|charcoal transition]] and that you might have to toss every bit of your Marxist theory out the window and learn a big stack of anarchist or [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialist]] theory, that the United States might get all the way through transition to a new system before Marxism ever begins to apply. 
would I do that? well. I hate it. I have no other choice. I am incapable of doing it practically. that question is one big contradiction. so my answer is, I will analyze every single other ideology through Marxism, but as itself rather than a confused Marxism that explains itself wrong. Trotskyism isn't secretly mainstream Marxism-Leninism, it's Trotskyism. anarchism isn't secretly Bolshevism, it's anarchism. and a Marxist analysis of anarchism is something very different than a Marxist analysis of Marxism pretending to be anarchism. I am a meta-Marxist. if I have to use Marxism to explain how to succeed at totally non-Marxist ideologies that never turn into Marxism then I will. but I won't lie to you that Western Maxism or anarchism "must" be effective just because everyone's doing them and an ideology that's popular "must" be a winning one. I will judge the effectiveness of ideologies based on history. currently it's looking pretty bad for anarchism and bizarrely good for Deng Xiaoping Thought. I have been wracking my brain as to why that latter trend exists, and [[E:The Cold War never ended|I think I half have an answer]]? but the answer only makes the outlook even worse for anarchism. anarchism is going to have to [[E:The Cold War never ended|molecularize]] or it will never win.

I am guessing disabled people would probably not prefer to define access this way. but it's hard to stop that hole from tearing open. some people rewrite programs because they are not practically "accessible" to all the people attempting to look at the code, to debug it and such, and thus they feel rewriting the program is more inclusive to all the human beings that would later look at it. this is all because calling code accessible or not accessible is a fallacy. it's always populations of people that are open or closed to people, and the existence of code or technology is totally incidental; code itself has no intentions on how it is designed. to overcome the fallacy you have to realize that the thing that performs accessibility is an institution. you have to basically deliberately create a really consistent group of people that will function As A Community Unit for it to be able to do accessibility. and when you do that, anarchists will show up accusing you of "centralization". anarchism — depending on which one it is of course — is this terrible contradiction. anarchists want to overcome all social oppressions and make everybody behave good. at the same time anarchists hate anything being consistent and cohesive enough that it could be a painted target for anyone to catch a law-breaking anarchist. this contradiction practically results in a bunch of disconnected anarchists with little information about each other who are unable to live up to the standards of anarchism and who perpetuate social oppressions, all because they are scared to have a civilization that has laws and can defend itself from other populations that think it shouldn't exist. this is the Free Software movement in a nutshell: it's anarchism hiding inside capitalism, and it has all the basic logical problems of anarchism.

the process of creating any civilization historically begins with training a bunch of highly specialized professor types who set up the civilization. after they do that, nobody else necessarily benefits from studying what they studied, but what they created is theoretically available for anyone to use and becomes cheaper. by conventional Liberal-republican wisdom, the same process should apply to everything, with anybody who goes to college being able to discover something new and snag an exclusive Careerist spot as a resident expert, or start a new business. of course, in real life it doesn't quite shake out that way. in real life, capitalism produces so fast thanks to its Third-World workers that culture fills up with available products and nobody even wants or needs any more innovations. people get gaslit that learning stuff will make them likable because people like talent and creativity and education and then they get gaslit again that there's no need for any more art or science if they aren't the next one-in-a-billion international corporation owner that made the stuff everybody around them will be actually using the next morning. so why then does everyone keep saying "college college college, go to college"? because it's ultimately a trick by the bourgeoisie to disguise capitalism. the longer everyone says "college college college", the slower people figure out that the economy has filled up into a very limited number of jobs where the key is not in being good at things but simply in claiming things first and staying in them as long as possible. this is easiest for someone with a huge bank account who does nothing but buy businesses or stocks. a finance capitalist can switch from industry to industry in a heartbeat without spending any money on training, and very easily forgets that all the college-educated people have to spend thousands of US dollars and take years and years to do what they can do in a day or a minute. the concept of education becomes outdated as education inevitably builds up societal structures in which people do not have to learn the things previous pioneers learned. this is good in that in theory jobs will come not to cost as much, although it can be bad in that those with the money and time to commit to education have no advantage over the person who is simply very obedient to the constructs previous educated people created and is willing to work for a low wage, even to the point of serious fault where they go to work for a Tory and fully accept the racist, misogynistic, ableist atmosphere. fifty able-bodied White men full of hatred and willing to work for any wage gain a particular amount of power to absolutely grind five college-educated progressives into the dust. even so, people will keep chanting "education education" like sending all the socially-linked Tories to get an arts degree and somehow bleeding it out of professors' pockets or something will magically fix everything. but in reality all those "education education" people are just falsely and confusedly thinking that they're at the level of elite pioneers who could have started the United States from scratch, they're temporarily embarassed colonizers. they get this wrong impression from the observation that Liberal-republicanism constantly imposes artificial destructive processes which arbitrarily grind up industry and start it over again, ostensibly so that capitalism is "fair" in that new people can enter it and [[E:stale rat bread|Zinovievize]] existing "industrial culture" whenever they get tired of it, but in reality, it's a ruse to make people think cultures are made of endless competition and churn when that can never be the definition of any culture. it's always been that cultures are made of invention, the codification of standards or structures, the falling of profit, and the enjoyment of abundance where applicable. this assumption is baked into the sheer existence of universities. the reason creating professors is valuable is that professors create wealth for society as a whole, not for individuals. even if universities create capitalists, the capitalists also create structure for society at a town- or local-state level rather than for themselves. "[[E:wealth brain|wealth brain]]" destroys humanity's ability to understand society, to understand what it is and how it develops. when you have wealth brain you believe that education is for earning personal wealth and society is nothing more than a bunch of shiny objects and paying, but if that were true, it would quickly become that individuals would destroy the social structures they are supposed to create and become both useless to society having contributed nothing, and incapable of earning wealth because they created no consistent means of production. funny enough that's kind of exactly what's happened. people are going to college thinking wealth wealth wealth (not that it's their fault when they're not allowed to think anything else) and they end up utterly unemployed as all the necessary businesses are full and incapable of creating a business. they're not creating unions because there aren't enough businesses per individual being born for them to work at and if they manage to find a job it's always more advantageous for them to move to either a "prestigious opportunity" or one of the "only" regions with jobs left than to stay and fight for the first one they got. with nothing to fight for it's easy for the bourgeoisie to shove the smallest spark of resistance totally out and make them scramble to create a second rival bourgeoisie just to live. simultaneously businesses periodically fail just because they have trouble lasting forever, taking all their workers down with them. each failure of a capitalist hurts workers and gives an opening to a swath of new petty bourgeoisie that's enough to cause trouble but not enough to provide real relief to the unemployed population. they grow a bit, they enable really gigantic marketplace-owners that will get to keep the money forever, some of them drop away, one gets big and the hole in capitalism plugs back up. a little later another medium-sized business fails and the cycle starts again, or maybe towns just fill up with a bunch of tiny businesses that are constantly opening up and dying and causing confusion for everybody.

I feel like people's underlying biases when they talk about women's rights are directly creating things like having universities only consisting of non-political experts and getting science defunded, or statements that everyone should join up with center-Liberals that don't exist to create social-democratic programs when in reality that just creates a lot of dropouts from the Democrat "movement" and every existing program going away.

Richard Wolff said this once. but honestly, I think a great illustration is to open up <cite>Guardians of Ga'Hoole</cite> book 1. on one page there is a quote something like: "it's been a while since we've had a king." the book then proceeds to explain that owls have reverted from a kingdom to a warring states period.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">In the U.S., a tiny bit of economism is warranted -> this might be controversial. but from 30 years of experience living here, the people of the United States are often joined together only and solely by mathematics. no appeal to shared history, freedom, generosity, or empathy can actually join U.S. people together, although somehow the one thing that can join people together is economic imperatives like a corporation being there tomorrow and everyone having to go to the same corporation to receive a paycheck. people put up with their relatives almost solely because their relatives have money or able bodies while they don't actually like them or feel a bond to them. people join identity politics movements for selfish reasons of protecting themselves as much as for actually helping anyone else, graphed together by the promise of a bunch of people joined together winning rights and an elusive mathematics of graphs and people-blobs which might one day explain it. the whole concept of solidarity as some kind of moral or emotional connection or "the love of humanity" just doesn't really apply in the United States. talking as if employee types even have emotions left and aren't just hollow vessels of depression is almost itself an appeal to the bourgeoisie. the bourgeoisie have all sorts of time for marketing novels and talking about [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition|expression and emotion and Lived Experience]]. but as for any genuine workers that exist — for whatever five minutes they exist until being totally forced off business territories and being forced to start a new teeny precarious business — it's more useful to think of workers as devoid of emotion and being herded around by societal patterns and themselves to the things they "[[E:Anarchy is the most authoritarian thing there is|just have to do today]]" as if with cattle prods. the whole thing is held together with nothing but mathematics, there's no emotion in it. this leads me to feel like to fix it it's perfectly okay to appeal not to anything emotional but instead solely to new mathematics that people can recite as the thing they "just have to do today" equally as dispassionately.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Industrial work does not create wealth / Industrial work does not create wealth for individuals, it creates actively-flowing groups of people who are graphed together exchanging things with each other and who enjoy stability and surplus wealth for social programs only when they are strongly united -> at its basics, wealth is the possession of independent survival separate from all other members of society. peasant life generally possesses this unless somebody else claims the land from the peasants. industrial work does not create wealth in the same way, despite everyone's misleading metaphors about "the grasshopper and the ant". industrial work creates stuff: the material components of culture which do not necessarily have much value by themselves but are valuable precisely inasmuch as three corporations constantly producing them can sell them to each other. "stuff" is only meaningful as part of a structured graph arrangement of people, and ceases to be meaningful when the graph arrangements break and nobody will take it. simultaneously capitalists stupidly try to insist that graph arrangements breaking is normal, although to anyone with a brain that is the momentary absence of capitalism, not an actual process inside capitalism. saying that "market corrections" are part of capitalism is like saying that cats frequently dying of kidney failure is a useful and important part of cats; a bug in the system isn't a design. 
this question takes on a whole new dimension in light of anarchism. anarchists successfully understand that peasants had wealth more easily, but fail to understand the purpose of corporate products. the social purpose of corporate products is to make it easier to produce something useful without it having to be judged by the harsh immediate demands of survival — to make it possible to spend your time writing poetry or making watercolors of crows like a third of anarchists would love to do, instead of finding that because you're a woman and a mother dad said you had to watch the baby while he works with the cows. having to do work at the level of individual independence and survival has a lot of unintended consequences. independence and "wealth" make it hard to spend your time on children without accidentally resenting them or creating conflicts between the parents, while statistically at least half the population is going to have children. capitalism, at first, [[E:Capitalism dices countries into half a country per person|is just as bad about this]], but eventually makes it possible to chain together a bunch of corporations that are all in effect paying for each other's existence and have just enough productivity left over to provide inexpensive childcare. capitalism creates surplus wealth for a particular chunk of society at a time specifically because undirected graphs of people are all graphed together, vaguely like the way electrons are all graphed together across two atoms in a chemical bond. incidentally this benefit goes away when people allow Liberal-republicanism to [[E:multiple capitalisms in one country|divide people into two populations]] — the two populations don't graph together properly and the wealth doesn't get shared "across the bond" — although Deng Xiaoping Thought funny enough more or less fixes that, leaving China with an intact capitalism and in an objectively better stage of history than the United States. 
the big challenge for anarchists, or for Bolshevism, is to master graph economics. you can't even put a bunch of anarchists in a village and know the thing will hold together without knowing what the structures are and the inputs of every structure are in order to determine the other structures' outputs. industrial work does not create wealth. it creates graphs that are doing a verb. the republic is [[Term:republicking|republicking]], the town is towning, the village is villaging. this is the sense in which anarchism is indistinguishable from capitalism. Marxists say this accusation in a negative tone but it doesn't really have to be negative if anarchists simply didn't attack workers' states and stuck to peacefully creating tiny city-states that help workers' states on the off chance they're actually able to. the ideal scenario for anarchists is basically that you have a Soviet Union with 14 big republics and then you have like 300 teeny tiny city-states that are also part of the structure. I don't know how many, maybe it would only be like 20.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="F2">Industrial work creates hierarchies -> the problem with the concept is in the word "creates". if you stop at "industrial work ... hierarchies", then you've got it basically correct. when there is industrial work it is the case there are spatial hierarchies. but industrial work isn't the thing that creates them. industrial work is a response to them already being there, which attempts to solve them and make them less bad and more tractable. the end of that solving process looks like graphs that have been graphed together into the "shared electron" process of capitalism. 
anarchism is so... blockheaded. whenever you try to cover the things said in anarchism it comes out in such simple words I feel almost like I could explain why anarchism is false in toki pona. I would love to do that, just take one or two of these propositions and after it's written make a toki pona translation. the only real problem is I'm not "fluent", I don't have the standard usages and grammars down yet. but I do know in the mean time I can always make an en-x-pona page to later translate the toki pona from. I remember the first time I discovered [https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_English_Wikipedia simple english wikipedia] and not really thinking deeply about how many English learners there are I found it so funny. now even though I see "simple English" as a serious tool with broad application I still think it's fun. I still have a laugh at the notion of a complicated idea being "unrolled" into simple language to the point anyone should find it obvious. I hope someone else has as much fun with the en-x-pona pages as I will.

I feel like to answer it properly you have to separate out "the scientific method" from "an ontological model discovered through science which is now a field of study at a university". when you're talking about the second thing, you can absolutely argue that science is a social construct, specifically because each field of study contains assumptions or hastily accepted hypotheses and could always contain important errors. say that clinical testing is a field of study, but in practice the whole field of clinical testing has almost exclusively tested treatments on men. this would lead clinical testing to be a social construct which contains scientific errors and which would have to be updated through the scientific method into a better construct.

I think using ancient Egypt is a good thought experiment because it doesn't run into problems of tribal populations a really long time ago simply not being able to get the apparatus to test things; the single, sole advantage of class society is that it has wealth. tribal populations today are very different because they can make the journey to industrial centers if they really want to, so the major issue that comes up today is the will or decision-making power of different populations to be able to do things on particular land areas or "impose forms of science". anyway it's less complex to do this with ancient empires or very large populations versus small tribal populations; if you want to do this with tribal populations you use today's indigenous populations rather than the ones that existed a long time ago.

I think the same thing is true for plural groups of people existing in the present. a group of White Southern Baptist Christians, no matter how nice they are, will have a little trouble imagining zapping their perception over to India where people in India are conscious instead of them, and vice versa the other direction. this in turn makes it hard to understand the concept of a whole other class subpopulation of people, who manages to exist in the very same country as you and yet isn't you and is consciously perceiving the world instead of you. to someone who has never experienced it, the whole concept of another class probably feels like one of those weird science fiction scenarios like [[E:It's easier to imagine impossible matter fractals than the end of capitalism|discovering your universe is only an atom in another universe and you never knew]]. even a group of workers in the 1930s United States would find it hard to predict the 2020s where the proletariat has been shoved off the area of the country and everyone has been turning into hostile warring factions of bourgeoisie. to be able to comprehend historical processes that might happen in each period you really have to [[E:meta-Marxism|see outside yourself]] and see all the groups of people that exist, all the classes, all the factions consisting of plural [[Term:Social-Philosophical System|class-subpopulations each with a local ideology inside]]. but, if you can do that you're set. you're ready, in any historical period, to comprehend the possible futures that could happen.

I would like to know. when I read Marxist history texts I feel like I learned a lot more about it than I knew before. but there are always times when I freak out about the concept that the separation between populations of people as material objects is always stronger than anyone's ability to reason or intuit about what other populations are feeling and any attempt to have empathy or think about the problems of other groups of people could potentially offend someone, because you didn't predict the thing that was literally actually in their mind which was the only tone in which it was acceptable to speak about them at all. it makes me afraid regarding the potential for diplomacy between groups of people, how or whether it is even possible in a world where anyone is like this.

on why this isn't sound: people like predictability. people tend to take unpredictability as indistinguishable from rudeness, hostility, or malice — because, to be fair, a lot of actual malice [[E:Vegeta effect|pops up totally unpredictably]]. when big eruptions of violence happen, people are very happy when they stop. when small incidents of violence happen, people can become terrified just because they never know when it stops, and they will look for the nearest pattern they can see to try to find a causal mechanism that can stop it. this means some people will look at "termite violence", see a recurring pattern of "Black people", and start judging all Black people or even retaliating at all Black people with their own "termite violence" just to stop a presumed pattern of "toxic Black culture".

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Greed is not a good model because in order for people to not be greedy they all need to have a big pile of education that isn't necessarily materially available to them -> note that "information being available" and "education being available" are very different things. misinformation is incredibly cheap. real education is always more expensive. information which contains education has to be checked over by somebody. it has to be compiled based on previous sources that cost someone money, even if it's the library paying. somebody has to pay to publish the education, and somebody has to make calculations of the correct people to sell it to in order to have enough money to print it in the first place. various people inside that supply chain or industrial structure all have to pay to have the training or experience to do all of their roles effectively, and it's an uncertain leap for all those people to decide they can definitely succeed at what they're doing well enough to justify all the spending they'll have to do to get to do the risky thing in the first place. so in this weird way, greed is required to successfully produce enough education to educate people to not be greedy. say capitalist Bob is making all kinds of terrible anti-human decisions about all the businesses underneath him. if he is totally content as he is, he won't think education to become better is "worth paying for" with his money or effort. so in order to just get capitalist Bob who has all the money to change himself the whole rest of the population will have to pay to make that education really easy and basically free to the point it is almost more difficult for him to not bump into it and start reading it out of boredom. if you think of all education in the framing of bibles, every piece of information considered critical to humanity has to be as easy to obtain at a used book store for a few cents as a Christian bible is — go to a book sale, and there are even some of them where just the bibles are free. the astronomical amount of labor from all people in an entire country to make every critical piece of information both that easy to obtain and that easy to fact-check for the crustiest Tory who never uses the internet is what's required to make the model of "greed" or "insensitivity" even make any sense. yes, any person can change their mind. yes, you'll have to work 18 hour days where a whole lot of your effort isn't paid at all and can't be solved by "donating to charity" to make it happen, where the amount of effort required might take away from your children and your recreation and your social relationships which aren't directly to progressive people with some involvement in movements and from your novel-writing and your cat. a lot of anarchists never stop and think about this, how much difficult labor it actually takes to produce a lot of anything, including a lot of easily available quality education, and how much labor they'd have to do just to preserve the principle of freedom and every change in society coming from individual free choice or from supposedly spawning that indirectly through the pressure of "termite violence".

I've always been confused why Marxism wasn't already meta-Marxism. why wouldn't Marxists test their models against each other for accuracy, and why would Marxists end up dividing into different competing versions of Marxism that become unfalsifiable?

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Waiting for people to die is hatred / Waiting for people to die is as bad as hatred -> there is this really huge contradiction in the way everyone defines prejudices in the United States. normal people believe that every bad thing comes from prejudices. it's bad to be prejudiced. but for some reason it's okay to take the group of everyone who has prejudices and hate it. it's even okay to say things like "when the boomers die out", although logically that should be a prejudiced statement because you don't want them to exist or physically live and you want to squash their inner experience and everything they think and feel. isn't that statement just the act of passively killing them very slowly? I think the bible verse about hatred is truer backward: people dying is the same as hatred, people dying is as bad as hatred. if you frame it that way it's easier to conceptualize what the definition of hatred should actually be. in my mind hatred is when Trotsky exists but you don't like anything about him and you don't want him to exist, and you won't go to the active effort to make it possible for Trotsky to coexist with all the followers of Stalin, actually in real life, actually taking into account the goals and desires of both groups of people and realizing both of them instead of making a compromise that crudely squashes one of them to have the other, like, you have to build a world which realizes Trotskyism to some extent that Trotskyists eventually agree with even though it is limited by the rules of reality, instead of a world which acts to prevent Trotskyism, to the point that Trotskyism and mainstream Marxism-Leninism both exist and they both acknowledge each other as part of each other even though they began with different content and are not the same entity and have to actively get to know a new entity in order to predict and merge with that entity. an odd metaphor when applied to anything else, but it really illustrates what the problem with anything else is: if you want Protestants and Catholics to coexist or White Southern Baptist Christians and Black people to coexist, etc, you need to understand that each countable group of people realizes differently and builds different things and it's the Social-Philosophical-Material content that is realized out of each group of people that brings culture clashes. culture clashes don't come from abstract ideas and attitudes, they come from people realizing clashing material behaviors like Black people are saying slang words like "cook" or whatever it might be and White people actually hate that realized behavior because they prefer another behavior for them to do and everyone to do. a countable group of disabled people realizes the behavior of building ramps and a countable group of able-bodied people wants to realize a different behavior that is most natural in their group. so to get people to stop culture-clashing you actually have to get people to agree on the particular, not the abstract, to actually do and like specific realized behaviors which are not ideas at all but are acts of existing and being in a certain way. if it were true that hatred was an idea, then everyone around the world would immediately love neopronouns and unnecessarily-specific gender labels just because they don't want to be hateful, but that isn't how things work. acceptance and tolerance is always creepily conditioned on how well you can twist and contort normal people to pretend to not be normal and enjoy it as an active way of existing and being and making every daily decision and directing the whole of their Free Will and identity assuming that either of those exist toward the specific end of not being themselves as they were yesterday and being somebody new. it genuinely doesn't make sense to comprehend tolerance through individual freedom, because to truly tolerate someone not just where you're hiding your hatred but at the level where you could become friends is to overwrite and destroy individual identity and freedom, and the only question is whether this is a good thing. I think there's a decent argument to be made that it is, but it is nothing like [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialism]] and the way that everybody ever tries to comprehend freedom and The Subject. this is a new philosophy I have no name for. I already named entropicism. maybe I should name this one too. this is, uh... the ego-death philosophy of tolerance and friendship, I don't know how to make that snappy. this is the philosophy where instead of Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash being friends and gelling into a team because they're unique different competing individuals who each separately want freedom, Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash are friends because they agree to become each other in part if never in whole and abandon the parts of them that are harmful to them being friends. under this paradigm, [[E:Starlight Glimmer|Starlight Glimmer]] creates her [[E:Pol Pot|Pol Pot]] village and it's up to the Ponies in it to either become the new culture in part as they become part of the new culture, or leave, and there's nothing heroic about them leaving as individuals versus staying as a group; the village does not have to exist but if it does the success of the village depends on them working together and not being too selfish to be part of society. I wonder how different that show would be if it was written under that ethos. all those weird repetitive "be yourself" plots in the last season would probably be different and maybe even better written. like just imagine if there was an episode where a Pony was getting mocked and bullied in Ponyville or one of the main locations but it was because they were too much of a free individual to stay in Totally Not Eastern Europe; their own greedy individuality [[E:The Soviet diaspora was a second Trail of Tears|left them with nothing and turned them into a minority somewhere else]] constantly getting picked on by others.

I think it's fairly possible to argue this. definitely in fake cases like Bolshevism supposedly having a dictator it applies, but it also applies in real cases like {{Term:Wasp Swarm}}s and Donald Trump or Ron DeSantis, and Protestants joining up with a Protestant king to squash Catholics. it even applies to the fake case of anarchists and Existentialists turning their backs on Trotsky claiming Trotskyists are a collective dictator that is trying to make them conform to Trotskyism. this seems like a solid model of what causes human beings to label things "dictator" or try to define the concept of a [[E:generalized dictator|generalized dictator]].

I think there's a fundamental role played by separate populations such as countries and towns which wasn't well captured by Marx. and I think this is exemplified really clearly and simply by the emergence of early Trotskyism. you look at Trotsky and Zinoviev and their at-most-five-or-so Marxist theorists that started the conspiracy. they just wanted something to belong to, but the Soviet Union didn't really want them, and subtly pushed them out. (they think it wasn't subtle and was so blatant they could outline it like a conspiracy, but that's simply not historically accurate. if anything there was just an undesigned motion of the whole system of people, the central party and ministries and "bureaucrats" and so forth, slowly nudging them out as they didn't fit in and didn't understand it.) Trotsky's accounts of the Russian revolution are, a bit amusingly, often personal stories centered on him, but there is something specific that sifts out of that. the notion that some people are Marxist theorists but the only thing that strongly connects them to anything is a shared bond to a countable culture. you toss Trotsky out of this utterly miraculous bond made of little more than friendship that should never have been able to happen from the point of view of basic Marxist theory and he's going to be pretty mad. the act of tossing out theorists can cause a population to start slowly dividing as if it were some kind of biological cell sorting all the chromosomes into one side and the other side. I think there was a little bit of intellectual dishonesty in the Soviet Union where they did not want to acknowledge the possibility that even if the country would not naturally divide by regenerating the bourgeoisie your local theorists are the glue holding the country together and the whole thing could crack into multiple countries starting from the top. now, it's not like Trotsky was the keystone and if you get rid of him the whole thing comes crumbling down, but it is like the structure could break anywhere but because Trotsky is one of the weakest links ready to snap it all started there. you listen to these dumb capitalist-aligned sources talk about the Soviet Union and they say things like, the ministries and local party-nations were so bloated, having a level of state businesses is too much government, I couldn't stand having soviets in my town!! and basically none of that truly makes any sense. but when you take a perspective more from inside the country you see there were weaknesses most people don't really talk about. countries themselves are fragile in their own way; sometimes it's the simple notion we can make 300 million [[E:Subjects eat and occupy space|eating space-occupying organisms]] coexist instead of fight each other that's arrogant. and so Liberal-republicans will go thinking that sending 200 hostile representatives to compete against each other won't go badly and won't eventually devolve into blood feuds between sections of Alabama. party-nations are a lot less bad, being made on the basis of cooperation to start with. but sometimes there can still be cracks in them that threaten to tear an otherwise united population apart. there hasn't been enough thought in Marxism about the concept that every population is a material object, just as much as a block of ice is a unique material object and it would be a different collection of material objects if you broke it in two. there's been this consistent motif throughout what seems like all Marxism that for any given collection of people the only thing dividing the proletariat is it being stuck under the bourgeoisie and the simple need for everyone to get out of there will unite everyone permanently. but I honestly doubt it's that simple. how can it be that Trotskyists believe this, and early Marxists believe this, and Stalin believes this, but Trotsky and Stalin can get into a fight about how to free everybody around the world and unify everybody around the world? that shouldn't be possible. unless the content of what they are each trying to do is different even when Trotskyists do become Leninists, or there is something fundamental about two groups currently being separate objects that makes them compete and fight until they are literally one object that physically cannot fight itself any more. the latter one scares me a bit so I tend to focus on the first one hoping that one could be true. the notion that we only need to fix the content of our Marxisms and make them interlock together from the inside is a nice idea. I'm not absolutely certain it's true or the most important thing but it does give me a starting point that's not depressing.

I think this gets marked false for the wrong reasons. I think what really happens is economics is based on scarce gold bars or scarce production-acts while the number of houses is separate and irrelevant to what scarcity even practically is and has been. products aren't even scarce, partly because people will swap out non-fungible things for each other in a way that is hard to measure. people will use old things. people will use one thing for the other thing. in the early United States people could just claim land and it wasn't scarce yet. even now, the United States has a great land area. so scarcity of land was created by giving plots of land "brains" and letting them say no. The Subject caused land to be available exactly when it wants to form a graph connection. suddenly it started to become that every product within supply chains was synonymous with arrangements of people and the availability of people-graphs — with these diminishing pyramids of how much choice people actually have in being part of a people-graph. that's the really dumb thing about the cybernetics research group — if capitalism were actually about "time" or decision-making, then you wouldn't be able to stop it because it would have taken up all your Free Will and decision-making ability before you could even think about stopping it and build a cybernetics research group. Free Will and the ability to affect history are incidental to capitalism, which is why people can resist it no matter how much it takes away people's "time" and "control".

(I believe this is because inside it all people are actually participating in and regenerating [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialism]] and getting Liberalism as an emergent effect.)

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">If attacking religion is bad, then attacking people's faith in Donald Trump is also bad -> what becomes logically true if you strictly hold that it is wrong to tell people religion is not materially true. it's bad to tell people that religion is not accurate to reality because that's always, inevitably a microaggression against countable cultures, and microaggressions are unthinkable? okay, let's roll with that. sociologically, people's fascination with political candidates serves a very similar role to religion, grouping them into countable cultures and giving them something to hope for by giving them other people to support them and someone to lead them as a group. it's the sheer act of putting people into a group which has the material power to fight and crush other groups that gives people hope; said another way, any act of hiding in a group to gain hope is an act of [[Term:magic ritual|magic ritual]]. it can be argued that magic ritual is sacred in the sense that anyone who does not respect it is simply bashing countable cultures and refusing to be friends with them and understand their point of view. therefore, when people band together behind Donald Trump to protect them from progressives, listen to Fox News, and get together to push demographics out of everywhere and out of the United States, all of that must be understood as an indispensable cultural tradition. this statement is contradictory, of course. if all religions and spiritualities are indispensable cultural traditions, but one of them is built on oppressing the others, but it's still an indispensable cultural tradition in practice, then allowing religion naturally leads to religion itself forcefully extincting religion and magic ritual — just because it is religion. tolerance and "moderation" are not a substitute for historical materialism and the material study of ongoing interaction between populations, and really never have been.

I wish the United States would drop the concept that "systemic" problems are made of ideas and attitudes when that is not at all what "system" usually means, and what it almost always suggests is an arrangement of material moving parts which is distinguishable from other arrangements of moving parts. if all "systems" are just clouds of individuals they aren't distinct from each other as systems and you can't change them. well, unless you literally forcibly change ethnicities and demographics themselves, given that clouds of individuals are equivalent to countable cultures.

I think the question to ask here on motifs like these is this. if you don't arrest the kulaks and put them in Gulag or whatever happens to them, and you insist on tent of freedom poles, what hypothetically happens? assume that whatever they did was relatively bad. they did something at least as morally questionable as casually posting on twitter that "when I say 13% of the population commits 50% of the crimes they all get so fired up but they know they're wrong and pathetic". on rare occasion there are recorded historical incidents where kulak types would shoot well-liked public officials if they had the opportunity. they're your "January-6ers". they're bad news. so what are you going to do with those? they're not going to listen to anything you say just because they strive to be nice. if they could retreat to their peasant life and survive but watch 90% of society die, which in the kulaks' case they can, there's a nonzero chance they'd be the kind of person to just take that option, which we have decent reason to believe looks closer to 50% than 1%. kulaks aren't the ones dutifully paying taxes to help people exist. so what are you going to do with them? 
the typical answer you see is "community". "community, community, community", as if culture and community have the power to solve everything. but let's say that actually worked. everyone bombards the kulaks with good values. they don't behave. they don't want to contribute. they act like people trying to integrate them into a community is uncalled for. people ramp up efforts to saturate everyone with Community. when the kulaks don't participate everyone just starts utterly boycotting them and going "you can't buy products from that region, that's where the kulaks live and they don't like Community, you have to buy from these good regions". they effectively isolate all the kulaks into an island and turn them into their own tiny nation that is being embargoed and starved of anything they can't create themselves. this only exacerbates tensions between the two groups of people. if people recognized as being from the kulak region go into one of the progressive cities they're going to be treated with utter prejudice. if any of the progressive regions go through a really hard time and we assume the Soviet population is anarchist instead of Communist, some people are just going to attack the kulaks and steal their stuff because they feel like that's the justified thing to do to people that have spat in their face and never helped them. the whole thing would start morphing into a warring states period or a blood feud really really quickly. you're going to be killing them or firing guns at them one day just because you belong to two incompatible populations that don't want to be part of one Community while anarchists are busy enforcing a wrong model that Community is universal and automatic. if you really want to not kill the kulaks then it's a very bad idea to be an anarchist or a psychoanalyst, no matter who you are, even right this second. you have a far greater chance of an outcome where they keep their lives if you allow Bolshevism and you allow a central government to enforce laws on every population rather than making everything about the social relationships between individuals or populations, which can turn very abusive.

Isaac Newton didn't know there wasn't one big linear flow of spacetime, so he cursed science with "linear time". then Albert Einstein showed up and laid out a model where if anything has an approximately linear flow of time then there are billions of them going in parallel and none of them is "the real one". so, we start with relativity. for any particular Group Subject with so-called "cybernetic flows" inside, let's say it's a Trotskyist party to be funny, that Group Subject [[Term:reterminism|retermines]] stuff about itself using its internal elements and the things immediately surrounding it. if there is a big bad Communist Party of the Soviet Union in the way, the Trotskyist party will do what it can to plan around its environment and realize Trotskyism, its preferred so-called "fiction". this happens on a timetable specific to and emerging from the Trotskyist party, while the CPSU may have a different timeline of how it wants to realize its own plans. there is nothing particularly cosmic about this in a magic-ritual or sci-fi time travel sense. the CPSU doesn't actually distort spacetime and take causality away from the Trotskyist party. both of them still have a timeline on which they can act to the degree they are capable. but, even so, when the two groups interact with their surrounding reality and each other, some possibilities collapse into more disappointing ones as a product of all the directions of interaction. whatever "fiction" (sociophilosophy or ontology) you come up with, it will always be affected by the presence of other "fictions" busy realizing themselves in relativistic time. all the fictions are realizing at once, some of them succeeding and some of them not succeeding, and the ones that don't successfully realize only keep getting screwed over by the successful ones in a vicious cycle. so the deal with Newtonian linear time is that it's an effect of sociophilosophies defeating each other, not a cause. linear time is only an outward perception of the result of what happened, but because it's a result, you can't simply fight it to fix the inner causal process. man. if the chaos magicians had just stopped with the notion of realizing fictions and never ever said anything about time, I would have been more receptive to it.

I think there's at least some amount of an argument, maybe not rock-solid exactly, that it understands art on a higher level. the level where art has already succeeded and transported us to the new reality it has fabricated. shouldn't it be the highest praise of art having succeeded when people are actually living in that reality for a moment?

I think anarchism is full of special pleading that anarchism is inherently better just because it's anarchism. and I think in a sense you really can't expect anything else, because this is how all ideologies actually work. anarchists cluster together, Communist allies cluster together, Tories cluster together, as if they were ethnicities or some other demographic, then they protect each other and determine their ideology as a group.

[https://www.protevi.com/john/SEDAAG.pdf] I'll say it out loud: two people is not a hierarchy. in the medieval sense, a hierarchy covers a whole kingdom, or a significantly large local state likely not bigger than Italy. words are whatever, but that's the definition of why hierarchies are actually important to anything. because they're big. the concept of hierarchy is not relevant to the study of historical revolutions unless you have a concept of hierarchy which refers to large structures instead of specifically to relationships. anyway. the major fallacy here is thinking that forming a population-society will not cause new "hierarchies", when in reality it could, simply as a requirement of realizing itself into a viable structure. it could be that you have to form things the anarchists think are "hierarchies" to get a large group of people free from something larger than that. to not admit that is basically to commit Trotsky's world population fallacy and erase the existence of countable cultures and ethnicity and language and religion and racism. the differences populations raise between themselves are connected to the existence of populations as separate interacting objects, which creates borders, which creates internal structure and Archons. this is why you need to conceptualize freedom as a different internal structure (subpopulation, movement, Social-Philosophical System) within the same populational unit or units.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">All Western Marxism does is create a new hegemony that has to be infiltrated -> the claim that as much as Gramscians manage to infiltrate existing structures, all that actually does is make it harder for any "real" Marxists to get in there, and create a conflict between countable Marxisms to infiltrate the same space. this is one of those propositions that's a bit more of a bad joke than something I'm confident in. I am deeply confused as to what's really going on right now. but this is the thought that comes intuitively.

[https://www.protevi.com/john/SEDAAG.pdf] this claim was just barely unsaid but could smell it all over the thing. why are people like this? why is determinism so scary to them? as I say, I swear most people don't even know what determinism is. determinism is the mere ability to describe things as differential equations and manifolds, like Deleuze did. he used it to explain Hegel. if there isn't determinism you couldn't describe everything with math. I find almost nothing more baffling than the way psychoanalysts (and schizoanalysis) are absolutely obsessed with math almost more than scientists are and then they also get obsessed with the individual and how you supposedly have to resist anything that could threaten to predetermine The Subject. why does nobody see the terrible contradiction between these two things? I swear we should just abolish the term scientism and make a new term of math-ism when you're over-applying math. that would make Marxism challenging but still possible. it would kill psychoanalysis though

</li><li class="field_exstruct" data-tradition="DG" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Everything can be described through anti-essentialism / Every single object or concept can be described through anti-essentialism -> for all the crazy things Deleuze and Guattari say I have to mark this one true. structuralist linguistics? true. entities such as animal species or individual piles of hay are only distinguished from each other as they exist separately and/or differently on the ground? true. mainstream Marxism-Leninism and Trotskyism are most easily distinguished as interacting factions rather than defined by their theories or beliefs? true. this is one of the most obviously "Existentialist-Structuralist tradition" concepts in its construction, containing both the appeal to things being descriptively defined by their relationships and differences ("structuralism") and the appeal to Lived Experience mysteriously joining everyone together because we all inherently want to be in the [[redlink|united nonviolence of shared oppressions]] ("existentialism"), but I have no issues with it. not until they get to saying that populations can never differentiate, which isn't true.

I get where he's coming from to say that "multiplicities" always start out never fully possible to differentiate. but they can fully differentiate, even to the point they'll never go back. we wouldn't be talking about the implications of a Soviet Union existing versus there not being a Soviet Union, because they'd be the same republics of people either way. there would be no national independence movements if this claim were fully true. there'd still be a British empire. we'd all be arguing about how to represent everyone within the British empire without breaking it up, just because we all "know" civilizations never ever break up. god, like. Deleuze. have you ever been a Trotskyist. that's a silly question to pretty much everyone but genuinely, have you ever had to deal with groups of people breaking apart and not going back together? if you actually did you'd know that things really do differentiate. there's almost an entropy arrow for groups of people just like there is for chemistry, where when a group of people breaks apart there are specific "chemistry" changes that make that tearing apart hard to run backwards. this is part of the definition of history, I feel like. the entropy arrow that makes things like a national independence movement or an organization disintegrating hard to reverse and more of a permanent creation of new conditions, new characteristics for the involved entities.

I have to admit though, taken out of context this statement is pretty funny. it's one of those statements only a philosopher could come up with, but at least it's creative. rather ironic given the purpose of the statement. this statement was supposed to be a statement that "analyses" were too difficult to think through while intuition was easier. but really it's a very unintuitive statement which doesn't sound much like a description of the intuitive mind at all. to me, nobody would intuitively think of a scientific model in terms of how far it divides things. when he described the infinite ruler, literally, my intuitive thought was "why not just use a variable? just pick an arbitrary distance x and start measuring everything in terms of x". for anyone that actually knows science, you'd intuitively jump to Newtonian physics or quantum physics or the appropriately rounded-off model where processes are already generalized at the perfect level. grade school science exists because science is not difficult to make intuitive.

Liberal-republicanism can seem so pointless at times because although people sort of get to argue over the rights of demographic subpopulations, there is this tiny crust of representatives and experts and owners that actually "receives" the rights when most people don't even really get anything. are you a disabled senator? movements for human rights will probably be perfect for you. are you anybody else? tough luck. this is the thing. I make fun of Trotskyism and anarchism at times because sometimes they really have no idea what they're even saying. but at the core of it you have this very sympathetic problem of the book-intelligent Trotsky figure who should be good for something and is thrown out of his society because this particular crust of really elite representatives who are good at what they do and better at things than anyone else totally invalidates the guy as having any place in the country and leaves him not able to articulate what the problem with anything even is beyond "I think I am mad at The Bureaucrats". and I'm tired of that too. on one hand people need to not have entirely stupid interpretations of Marxism, but on the other, if they would only listen, I don't really want people thrown out like that.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Wars are hierarchical -> I think there's a pretty good argument for this given any definition of what a hierarchy is. given the medieval definition of a layout of people which is conflated with owning individuals of particular classes, a war easily turns into a Napoleonist phenomenon with one "core" population-government stomping over the top of the other and trying to extract debts or treaties. given the crude definition of "hierarchy" (prejudice) used by anarchists, a war is the act of leaping one State over another population to enforce a particular way of being, which is to say one population is more important than another. this is the fundamental contradiction that comes up whenever an anarchism tries to build itself entirely out of secret operations. that turns the whole thing into a hierarchical activity putting one Social-Philosophical System over another Social-Philosophical System. this wouldn't be a problem if the SPS in question wasn't an anarchism, and was a Marxism or something. Che can try to make the case that a Marxist war on another country that only takes out the owners is justified, because he's not basing his entire theory on "hierarchy" and whether hierarchy is bad, he is basing the justification for wielding power on how important it is to realize a proletarian civilization. all Marxisms know on some level that they are an incomplete group of people competing against the rest of the world, and the concept of hierarchy isn't good for describing an all-directional conflict, but anarchisms somehow don't know that.

this is the value of modeling the Trotskyite conspiracy as its own tiny emerging country. you finally have a model which can sort out all the {{censor|bullshit}} associated with anarchism and finally get a Materialist theory of how to understand the creation or development of anarchism (or its particular variety of secret operations).

Existentialist-Structuralists and the bourgeoisie, maybe justifiably if Trotskyists knew anything. mainstream Marxist-Leninists are afraid of Trotskyists because they think there will be another secret operation to explode workers' states that basically dumps a cascade of racism on Third World countries for no reason. anarchists are afraid of Trotskyists because if they know anything they will build Hierarchy and The Bureaucracy (ironically). I think the history of secret operations as they have already happened shows that anarchism really isn't what anarchists think it is. no matter how nice or how violent anarchism is, it's always the formation of a new countable Culture, which is localized to not all the world's people and has to have a border because it has new internal content. you can theoretically tear open a revolution on any basis, not worrying about who is and isn't the proletariat, but if you do that you absolutely must know what its internal content is. you have to have rudimentary knowledge of the structure of the new society in order to stabilize the new forming entity which inevitably won't contain all the world's people and will inevitably have a border.

I do know it's not fascism, as that would have to be at least a little more premeditated and specific. I think this is just some weird phenomenon of societal mitosis where regardless of where classes are at populations simply go insane and rip themselves in two. they think they're achieving something by "doing something" and carrying out attacks, but they're actually going precisely nowhere. the crisis that populations go through is that people stop being able to expand into and over each other even though everyone is expanding, and the easiest, crudest way to resolve it is to just take the population and rip it anywhere so there is one more hard border between all the expansion, or at least so that there is no more expectation that if the new populations expand over each other there won't be war. it's like one of the best results of these "stress fractures" would be East Germany, which is what happens when the proletarian subpopulation or lowest-ranked people all end up on one side of the rift and the high-ranked people end up on the other. this + ??? = East Germany is indistinguishable from an anarchism

I think it's fair to claim that anarchism doesn't truly exclude a State from forming in real life, and real-life Anarchisms probably will have States, but even so I don't think a huge party-nation with a parliament building sounds like an Anarchism. I definitely don't know enough anarchist theory to say why. all I know is from the angle of Marxism if you have chunk competition and elite winners of Careerism or investing who take charge of particular chunks, practically speaking those should be the Archons, and anything which is purposefully leaving Archons around materially couldn't construct a logically-coherent realizable named Anarchism as a theory, so it shouldn't make sense to call it anarchism right now.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S">ring of non-competing businesses versus expansion / distinction between stability and expansion -> the existence of anarchist theories seems to come not from any distinction between workers and owners, but from the distinction between a stable ring of non-competing tiny businesses and a chaotic clamor of businesses expanding from tiny to larger. the distinction between tiny businesses and larger businesses appears right before the proletariat proper even comes to exist, and in that sense it's a very archaic conflict from an early stage of populational development.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Anything that removes colonialism from an empire is a revolution -> this would be following from the claim that any government emerges directly from a population of people itself and the class or rank structure inside that population; whenever you remove the upper class or the Archon you change the resulting government and the population's entire paradigm about government. colonialism, depending on your definition, is the actions of a few particularly malicious Archons (India), or the expansion of a population onto another continent or country mediated by the highest-ranking people who are the most able to secure territory that the more common people stand behind to get handed the ability to produce a sellable product and feed their kids (United States, maybe South Africa or Ireland, but not India).

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Filling an area with people in order to instate a government is colonialism -> how do you disqualify Gramscianism from being an instance of this? for that matter, how do you disqualify Liberal-republicanism from inherently being an instance of this even when it's governed by progressives? I would say indigenous or previous people-groups are exempt and they can't forcibly occupy a territory that was invaded by somebody else. but beyond that, how can you possibly argue that an LGBT+black&brown party isn't colonialism unless it dismantles Liberalism and somehow creates a new government that materially isn't colonial? anything that actually, successfully removes colonialism is definitionally a revolution, and nobody wants to acknowledge that.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="F2">Christianity is the appropriation of Jewish writings to serve empire -> false because it didn't happen in a straight line like that. Jewish texts were passed to Jewish Christians, who then were Christians, and then I think what basically happened was Christianity was divided into common people and literal emperors and the emperors or upper classes of each kingdom overshadowed everyone else and created the new interpretation. the whole issue of people "misinterpreting" Christianity is bizarrely a class issue from the moment it first appeared all the way through to today.

I am still confused and trying to figure out how the hell a Communist text was totally appropriated by anticommunists to mean that somehow we can purge racism out of everything and we have to before there can be workers' movements. I still don't understand how that even became "allowed" or "acceptable".

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Snatching Marxist texts to achieve center-Liberalism is cultural appropriation -> more of an "interesting thought" than a solid argument. relies on the concept of a "culturally-defined Communist" in the sense of an East German, etc., emerging as a nationality whose nationality is then appropriated.

I think that's a really difficult question. but the one thing I know is Epic-of-Gilgamesh type stories are a really bad way to go about it. if Sun Wukong wants to preserve his population... isn't that what every population wants? doesn't every single population not want to be subject to genocide? so, to cast the concept of preserving a population through the lens of an individual king wanting to stay in power just seems totally wrong. existence is not a king, but more like the republic itself. it doesn't make sense to characterize existence as a form of power that needs to be limited as much as something you want to take the locus of power out of and understand as a bunch of connected moving parts.

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqtrNXdlraM] this sounds to me like a PMC model trying to argue for the existence of "The Pigs" as a class. bringing up "Stalin showing up without any cash" is such whiplash against the rest of the argument that makes me question if the speaker actually knows anything about the development of societies if he is characterizing the Soviet Union in ways that could come out of people that clearly know nothing about it.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Escape routes choose people / People don't choose escape routes; escape routes choose people -> this is it. this is my problem with schizoanalysis. they think "lines of flight" are a model of Free Will, but they're not, because no matter where you go, your success in finding freedom, safety, or happiness there depends on the [[Ontology:Q776|uncontrollable actions people take at the other end]]. it's really the other people that choose you, not you that chooses your friends.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Intelligence is not advantageous to animal survival / Complex self-aware intelligence is not advantageous to survival -> the claim that human-like intelligence is not useful for understanding the physical world. this is about where you end up if you keep believing that statements about "not generalizing" and "waiting for things you think are bad to be good" actually constitute information rather than a lack of information. if that's really true, the human ability to learn was a terrible idea that has mostly led humans to internalize models about things where there is no actual pattern and hampered the survival of every individual. a less intelligent creature would have no prejudices in the human sense.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The United States is an instance of multicapitalism -> here I go coining words again. I have been kicking around this concept for a quite a while in MDem drafts, but up to now it has always been through the lens of emerging nation-states and the development of different forms of "democracy", rather than through the lens of capitalism. multicapitalism refers to the creation of multiple capitalist blocs inside the same country which function as different nations tearing apart the overall country because they are disconnected blocs of capitalists.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Expulsions and schisms are the same thing -> if one person can be a tiny group of people by being a countable Culture, then the major difference is just that an expulsion is one person and a schism is several people.

I have no idea if this makes any sense. I just don't know.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Community is a cancer / "Infinite growth on a finite planet" comes from births / "Infinite growth on a finite planet" comes from individuals / "Infinite growth on a finite planet" is a bad talking point (births and primitive Existentialism) -> if you listen to Tories long enough, or if you simply look at the way job openings decrease every generation, you realize that the problem of "infinite growth" comes from individual households. individuals want to believe there will always be jobs for them, and things for them to create and contribute to society, the total number of things that exist always expanding. but the reality is that everything is finite. the space in a city for buildings is finite. the number of people you can sell something to is finite. the amount of attention people have to listen to ads and look at things is finite. and at a certain point of development whenever any new people try to elbow their way into society society pushes back. it seems to be true that society wasn't meant to expand infinitely, but in order to effect that every single individual has to miraculously calculate the probability that having babies or creating new things is not best for the population and miraculously pick the correct action. that is really hard to do without Bolshevism and a central government that literally moves people to different cities. infinite growth is tied to disorganization, while to keep growth "finite" you have to genuinely organize it onto existing interconnected patterns. you have to give up the concept that civilizations are "made of Free Will" and accept that there is some kind of predictable correct arrangement of a particular set of people which has ways it can be done wrong. 
edit: there's a second way of looking at this, which is a bit simpler. The Subject is a living animal. living animals reproduce at some steady rate indefinitely without regard for the consequences, by nature of being organic life. put together The Subject in a ring of people, a tent of freedom poles, and they will all help each other reproduce indefinitely without regard for the consequences. Community Is A Cancer. 
are there ways Existentialists and anarchists can try to refute this? of course. one of them is to say that war is good and Europe is thriving because World War I happened but it ended — the United States isn't thriving because no other empire was there to challenge it on the same level, so it stomped the other populations and wilfully started fighting itself. if you think this is an atrocious state of affairs, that's fair, but it does line up with the history of civilizations over the past century where a ton of conflicts have been between giant global powers over the top of buffer states, notably Poland and East Germany. "Communities" can't halt their own expansion with just Community. 
description number three: inside countries there is simply a free-floating anarchic phenomenon of {{tts|tts=Commu-nity|Community}} where individuals link together into social graphs that as wholes fight over things and try to claim them. anarchists think {{tts|tts=Commu-nity|Community}} is harmless and natural and never "greedy", but it's not. {{tts|tts=Commu-nity|Community}} produces socioempire. living breathing eating space-occupying individuals that are increasingly all some version of the bourgeoisie band together to form a circle of friends which in the process excludes people, inherently creates prejudices, drives other groups or individuals out of places as it expands, owns itself in a destructive way so as to prevent other people doing the same thing, owns the right to expand, owns the right to destroy and colonize for a limited number of people that other people have no control over, destroys the planet and says "I dunno how we could have persuaded each other to stop it", {{tts|tts=Commu-nity|Community}} is just plain bad news. <s>(I must sound like Gene Ray right now. but really, having to live in a world where this is constantly destroying everything and nobody notices it is semi-literally driving me crazy.)</s>

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Profit actually applies to chunks of civilians / Profit does not apply to industries, it applies to chunks of civilians -> this is one of the underlying reasons anarchism doesn't make sense. capitalism always lied to us about what profit was. then anarchists make a bunch of theory based on the capitalist definition of profit which was wrong, and as a result it's wrong. the real explanation for profit is that a sheer group of people has to make more stuff than it eats or people don't get to have houses, which means they don't get to choose where to live, where to work, what people to meet, or to some extent what to believe. if the population isn't expanding and always remains at the same numbers this might not actually be a big issue; it's only the fact that most national populations are expanding that causes older and younger generations to compete so intensely and hate each other so much over not having enough houses or ability to earn them. the genesis of proletarians always requires people to become productive as individuals, to be able to do something very consistently, and this consistent productivity underlies profit. in reality there can be obstacles to achieving this: people can be disabled; it can be that all the businesses around are garbage quality like the strips of teeny businesses that constantly die and get replaced, and working at them won't really make them better; arbitrary redlining and prejudice can set people back in the "careers" they need to outright accumulate when there are never enough businesses; etc.

I kept thinking, the protagonist speaks like no actual human being and the characters don't talk about anything as if they were experiencing it as much as if everything was a bunch of floating propositions. but then I saw the game get polished from its earlier drafts to where it was a little more convincing. so maybe none of this is bad writing. maybe the game is planning some crazy twist where the things all the characters were saying at first weren't meant to be believable, and were all misdirects. maybe it's here to blow our minds by first setting up a strange, surreal, not-quite-believable setting of dragon capitalism and then the actual point is to shatter those expectations and show that genuinely none of it made any sense and here's the way dragons are supposed to live instead. the funny thing? if that was the point I'd probably like the story. you didn't portray civilizations as utopian, but you did metatransitional realism instead of just [[redlink - Wings of Fire|assuming]] dragon tribes are made of culture and Free Will. even if the depicted transition is effectively an Anarchism that is an achievement.

some Existentialist theories like poststructuralism and schizoanalysis appear to believe this. there are different ways to cast this proposition: MX) prejudices are not obviously bad, so it is not possible to simply convince everyone prejudices being bad is obvious and have that be the truth because it will never be obvious. you need to convince people of something that actually includes prejudices being impossible to operate on directly.

The State mediates conflicts over the ability of social chunks to eat and occupy space. when Liberal-republican "democracy" is created the representatives of different chunks all contribute to creating The State, although the representatives do not equal The People. what this means practically is chunks of people compete for the right to submit the set of ideas that will rule everyone. but even if representatives were perfect reflections, The People don't really choose what sets of ideas they believe as individuals, they determine them as whole groups that already enforce group ideas on all their individuals. there is something like a tiny undemocratic "republic" inside groups of people before there is any government at all, or even any capitalists — essentially, The Spanishness Office. (the big mistake people make is less thinking it exists at all than thinking it's controllable.) as a result, the Spaniards Machine sputters along spitting out both what people are going to believe and who people's representatives will be, designing and placing people to obey it while oppressing them at the same time; there isn't even really any "manufacturing consent" step in the middle where people choose to be oppressed, the reason people support bad things is they're literally already part of them from the beginning, before they're educated, before anything. ISAs are the societies while The State is their apparatus. anyway. chunks of people which already contain Spaniards Machines generate representatives that represent the Spaniards Machine, the Social-Philosophical System. this leads to Social-Philosophical Systems themselves pushing each other back and forth fighting over parliament (hegemony politics), and fighting over the country. each Spaniards Machine is a tiny nation of ideas already, even if it may also have racist ideas that it is a superior cluster of White people, or whatever. this means when they fight each other over a republic, and inevitably play hegemony politics of "this is a rust country now", "this is a sky country now and all the rust people have to obey sky rules continuously spat out every day by the sky-colored Spaniards Machine", all they can practically achieve is creating a population-to-population hierarchy of one Spaniards Machine directly ruling the other.

I wish academics would like, speak in logically-coherent sentences. it doesn't matter what words you use but please use them to convey concepts that make any logical sense and are at all comprehensible. 
like let's break this statement down. what is essentialism? it's enforcing particular mandatory characteristics on something that are claimed to be in it from the dawn of time. what's strategic essentialism? it's creating people who must unite around a specific definition of what they are. now, how can that be anti-essentialist? whether it's anti-essentialist has nothing to do with whether it's good or bad, it can be good either way. why argue that it's anti-essentialist? what does that get anyone? 
this is the shovel dream of Existentialism being a method of physically organizing individuals into identity groups. Existentialism is partly a theory that people can only be arranged by whether arbitrary tribes of people like each other and want to be friends or want to shatter apart and fight each other at which point you can't keep them together — very bad theory for solving racism, as it horribly contradicts itself when it comes time to force racists to be friends with Black people that they utterly hate and want Freedom from. this causes people to think of everything in terms of prejudice and essentializing people into stereotypes, and to make up weird statements like grouping people into a movement being a way to fight against The Stereotypers, therefore it's "anti-essentialist", even though it's rather literally not. it's as essentialist as Stalin saying Georgians have to do specific plans as Georgia and sending it to the several people making up Stalin's government to be stamped. which is forbidden as evil Totalization because Communists are The Stereotypers against The Nice People in the United States who are bourgeoisie. please, Existentialists, please be intellectually honest for once. it's exhausting to have to solve everything you say like a math problem.

</li><li class="field_geo" value="618" data-dimension="F2">The universe is fundamentally made of information -> this is almost demonstrably false. silly argument against it: if that were true, there would be no difference between physical objects and Digimon, and we would have to seriously ask ourselves why you can't create an Agumon or a simulated coffee machine on a computer and then print the simulated coffee machine into the real world as data without having to copy every piece of the coffee machine using things that already exist inside the real world. I saw this claim in <cite>Existential Physics</cite> that you couldn't simulate a human mind without creating a human mind, and by extension you couldn't duplicate a human mind anywhere else without creating a second individual. the thing nobody realizes is that this is also true of a coffee machine. the most accurate model of how a coffee machine functions would be a coffee machine, in the sense the most accurate model of an Agumon would be a living creature. but you cannot shift a simulated coffee machine into reality without manually duplicating the coffee machine, any more than you can the Agumon. what this means is there is actual physical stuff in the universe between information. you can call every arrangement of things information but that information is always made of stuff. the crux of general relativity is that things are made of stuff. that's why everything can be a reference frame. because there are objects, and all the interesting stuff can only be seen while standing on them. some of the objects are really small and constantly re-divide themselves, because they're hardly big enough to even hold together, and that's okay, because we still see the interactions they create clearly enough that we can stand on them and call them objects. then more interactions and information happen between atoms, and so forth.

entanglement is one of the only exceptions, but entanglement is just basically what happens when you try to measure the color that each of the quarks is pointing. they are definitely pointing one of the three colors, but the color force is going so fast you never know which quark has which one of them. the outside observation and inside state are wildly out of sync. the only thing you know is the direction of each quark depends on the other two.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Inside a proletarian civilization, further transitions are about graph arrangements / After creating the dictatorship of the proletariat, all subsequent transitions are about structure more than class -> currently controversial but really shouldn't be. a proletarian society has to actually have policies to build itself. and what are those policies going to be? if everyone's the proletariat, you can't make all your policies based on who is the proletariat or who is the owners, because there aren't any owners to pick on, there are only the factors that make your workers or experts able to do their best work. now, if you're a Trotskyist and you also somehow have a brain, you could argue that all the owners are in other countries so the next step is to overcome other countries, shatter their borders, and join the people of various populations together into a single civilization. fortunately or unfortunately, the Trotskyist perspective has more or less been defeated in favor of every single ideology on the planet considering countries fundamentally separate, some arguing that they are actually separate for "cultural" reasons and others simply realizing that populations have to have autonomy for anything else to happen at finer-grained levels. the other major argument you can make is that the division between workers and experts is a problem to be solved, and if you said that you'd be right. the only issue is nobody truly knows how to solve it because it's connected to chunk competition across the spatial slot hierarchy, networkism, and Social-Philosophical Systems, and up to now nobody understands any of those. defeating Napoleon's Pigs is no easy feat.

I don't have anything against this idea nor am I making fun of it. at the same time, I have no real idea if it's true or not. each time you show people one of these claims that suburbs are a disaster you get a variety of responses that amounts to people having gone to exactly where they wanted to be individually unless they were physically or financially incapable — you know, primitive Existentialism.
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Animal testing can end if the right humans buy the labs -> I watched this supposedly inspiring video about rescuing lab cats. {{YouTube|8HqFeFa0KiE}} the beginning of the narrative was that lab cats are being tortured — they are raised to trust humans, then they are put in their cages with insufficient food and no enrichment, and you can say that because their life is engineered for suffering they learn to comply. sounds uncomfortably familiar; I swear the whole concept of Lacanian discipline and great portions of Existentialism is just this. but at the end of the narrative, the only way to save those cats was for people to pool together some money and buy the building. the cats never cease to be treated as objects, the objects just change hands. and I think that reveals a lot about modern industrial societies. "Filament of people conquer space and control it" is one of the only things that's worth anything. it solves great abuses, after also having created them. how different are collections of workers serving built-up Audiences from collections of lab cats? how do we know when a protest is meaningful versus when people are just chunk-competing over an area meaninglessly and different people controlling it won't actually make anything change?
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Waiting for a disclosure of meaning gives the one who discloses it power -> no. just, no. if that were true there couldn't be any identity politics movements, because people really do wait at the door of identity politics to get the answers. identity politics says something, and sometimes people reject it for reasons that aren't easy to fathom logically, but if it does catch on, then people just swallow it without questioning it no matter how out-there a particular philosophical justification sounds. creating a particular door outside which people wait for meaning. whether that's a good or a bad thing doesn't matter, what matters is in real life things work that way. and when that's the case, believing this will create a bunch of reactionaries who are all like, I'd rather not wait for a disclosure of meaning from The Left, I'll just make my own bogus definitions of things instead.

I don't fully know yet how that fixes racism, but I've got a fairly good idea how that unites Stalin and Trotsky, or Existentialism and Marxism. there's no huge distinction between sociophilosophy and culture that makes one not the other, so there probably is a way.
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S0">constantly-changing empty vessel -> one of the first totally abstract concepts I'm willing to make an Item without a real or fictional referent. this pattern is solid enough it's worth noting. it can be used to define class territories. it can be used to define The Subject. it can be used to define entrenched signs, apparently. but there are two major feelings about it: A) plurality of these things is frustrating and inherently causes problems as they collide, leading to some change good or bad whether we like it or not B) plurality of these things is easy to control with enough "ought" statements.
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The postcolonial project is about constantly smashing signs / Colonial Racism exists within the inability to smash existing signs -> this.... hmm. I don't know whether I feel positively or negatively about it. I think it is true that ontologies can always make errors, and we need the ability to pick incorrect ontologies apart to properly investigate the world and learn what is accurate in a scientific sense. but I have never really liked the notion that signs are an inherent form of power. it takes some unpacking. I have argued that Lacanian discipline is bogus because people can oppressively teach each other the wrong things. but is that all because of signs, rather than people? I'm not sure I'd say that. my thoughts right now are, the video I watched said that letting signs be is allowing metaphysical divisions of reality into arbitrary elements. which I half agree with. but then it said that the notion of breaking up sign monopolies is defeating metaphysics. and I feel like there's an error there. whenever we try to think that power is a deliberate thing somebody grabs and choppify things or push individuals back to stop power grabs and push the world into "balance", I feel like that's the moment we truly construct metaphysics. metaphysics lies not in the construction of specific categories but in the sheer false idea the world can be in perfect balance when it is always growing and changing. modern metaphysics is an empty vessel. a perfectly-balanced wheel of constantly-changing empty vessels that can grow and change and deconstruct themselves but are always in conflict, always hating each other, always trying to smash each other to break each other's power and then accusing each other of being the real power-grabbers. that's what metaphysics is now, not the content.
</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">A language is only bisimilar to reality as a whole -> important counterargument to the notion that language does not refer to reality. it does, and it does it almost the way a sign refers to a signified. but only the whole language at once does that. inside the language, terms only refer to other terms. then the whole language serves as a model for the whole reality in a bisimilarity relation.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Nobody can perceive reality through anything except models / We can never understand reality without using models -> this one... I wouldn't say it's false, it's probably true, but oh boy it's not my favorite. sure, we need to be aware of the plurality of philosophies each perceiving the world through themselves. but I think meta-philosophy is totally possible. I think it's totally possible to step outside philosophies for a moment to actually compare them and ask where they came from. we will easily make errors in the way we do it, but I don't think all philosophy is doomed to be fully locked inside models and effectively inside prejudices such that it is constantly eating itself. I think people primarily think it is because they do not have consciousness of the material phenomena of graph struggle and chunk competition. if they did, they'd realize how silly this all is. they'd go, oh god, why were we promoting philosophies that ask everyone to fight and kill each other as nicely as possible instead of asking how to turn around and become the puppetmasters of chunk competition. why were we doing any of this when we could have stopped what generates prejudice at the source.
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Human language is rooted in Lived Experiences / "language is rooted in human experience and relationships" -> no. no. human language is rooted in the fact humans belong to social networks. graphs. language has networks and humans have networks and when you are part of a sea of free-floating entities you must physically obtain information about that system while inside it. that is Einstein's theory of relativity. a camera can do relativity just by being physical and being part of the world as it takes a picture. it doesn't have much to do with human "experience". we could all be philosophical zombies and still have language. in certain limited senses, The Subject is a machine and relativity is a piece of the machine.

Adventure Time giving its moments to BMO and Ice King near the end, good. Angry Birds movie suggesting that success is purely about trying hard, bad. it's like, the reason so many authors are bad at balancing things correctly is our aversion to historical materialism and the notion that history is based on physics and you get particular paths through understanding each kind of physics.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Science turns The Subject into an object but philosophy doesn't -> I genuinely don't think this is true. I really feel like philosophy does turn Subjects into objects if it's doing its job. what does it mean to turn something into an object? it means studying the pieces or processes that compose it and comprehending it as a physical thing. reductionism in the ontology sense: reducing things into a graph of sign equations, an ontology which is plural and not definitive but may go part of the way to explaining how something works.
</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Humanist theories squash The Subject under prejudice / Subject theories are bad because they do too much prejudiced Subject-squashing / Humanist obsession with The Subject is bad because it has too many prejudices -> not making this up, really saw this one. possibly the most Existentialist criticism of Existentialism that I've ever seen. why does nobody ever ever ask if theories centered around prejudice are a prejudice? anyway. I think this highlights some kind of major division inside Existentialism. should I divide Existentialism into humanist periods and... prejudice-obsessed periods?? I still don't quite understand. I study and read and study and read and I still never understand what's going on. trying to understand where the hell these modern prejudice philosophies come from feels like Simon researching the ice crown and turning into an idiot and being stuck there forever.

I feel like those three things kind of merge together the way draconic creatures merge together and turn into one big umbrella of dragons. as for the fact Ice King kidnaps princesses... no comment. that's become associated with the more atheist yet unserious definition of mountain sages, but yeah, no comment. this is more about the archeology and immortality stuff.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Unending happiness simply does not exist / Unending happiness is not a thing / The concept of unending happiness cannot be resolved into a real-world problem -> an important dimension to "utopias" that I never see discussed. if something doesn't actually exist, then people are going to read it as a metaphor even if it isn't, just to have an opinion about it. the human brain chunks models of reality inside visual signifiers, and when people see an imaginary thing they search for the real-world image that matches it and start interpreting it that way. this is how you get the speedrunning guy seeing the image of speedrunning, looking up his mental image of "seeking shortcuts to success", and getting upset. what I never see when someone discusses "utopias" is the recognition that people are doing this. I never see people consciously listing out all the internal real-world signifiers that they think utopia actually means. the... bisimilarands? the analogy targets? the Z Items to the S Items, anyway. one possible "bisimilarand" is addiction. one is imperialism, as shown in the Winter King episode: a population that oppresses another has a much easier time. one is national independence: it is easy to accuse postcolonial Anarchists of "utopia", but they really just want some kind of independent population. all of these "bisimilarands" are very different, and which one you think of is based on your model of society, your social-political-economic ideology. the problem happens when people assume a particular pathway of signifier-bisimilarand-mechanics simply is what something is across fiction and mythology and real life. in one sense, fiction is how we all share and agree on misinformation without realizing that's what we're doing. and this is really popular for Existentialists to do. to assume that particular works of fiction are portraying such things as The Subject exactly the way they work in real life, when necessarily they all come from generalizations and assumptions. fiction argues about "unending happiness". but such a thing is complete nonsense. like, so nonsensical that even speaking of it hypothetically is hard because you have to suspend several things about reality and effectively make up fake prejudices about which real-world things you don't believe in. so what is fiction really arguing about if the thing it's arguing about doesn't exist? it's arguing about prejudices and which sets of prejudices people think are the better prejudices when literally speaking all of them are wrong.

I think by any reasonable definition, every single time Liberalism or capitalism makes people chop off part of themselves and fit into it is the same as symbolic castration. I think he is complaining about his own system. which is kind of funny — Žižek is a Zinovievist Trotskyite, while one of Trotsky's biggest problems was projecting onto Stalin the things that Trotsky does, effectively making "Leninism" into this weird never-ending cycle of deciding you don't like Leninism and exploding it to create Leninism that somebody else inside it then explodes again.

I like the authenticity of Adventure Time having historical periods that don't have to connect to each other, and a potentially infinite number of historical periods; there's a great poetry to that at the same time there's a certain kind of realism. what I don't like is how it comes down into any particular set of present events. it makes it feel like it's unimportant to have morality because if having patience and surviving things can fix anything, why bother to get other people to be moral instead of holing up in an ice cocoon? you can say that it's possible to accept just anything that happens because you can't control it, but there are some things that really are bad. people being isolated from each other like Simon and Betty really is bad. the collapse of society into warring states or world war really is bad because it doesn't stop the same cycle from happening again. and just walking away from the notion that some things really are bad feels like abdicating the responsibility to make history go the right way.

Lacanianism says we cause trouble for each other because we individually have fake ideas about reality that need to be cut off. symbolic castration / discipline. schizoanalysis basically says that democulture is the mechanism that cuts off fake ideas and is the rationale for Liberal republics. postcolonial theories say everything is due to prejudices. Lacanianism is talking about prejudices too. it's saying all our fake ideas about reality and refusals to compromise are prejudices. that's what it's really doing. and I hate it. because it diminishes the reality of beliefs and philosophies as actual matters of identity and experience that people truly live their lives by, kinda treating people as mere instruments in a way, mere instruments of building an empire of people who miraculously guess the correct way to behave for people to get along, and haven't even thought it through to figure it out, who have all just been beaten into place like cattle. all the individuals or countable Cultures or ideologies are the instruments and the Liberal republic experts just own them all, like a capitalist owns a group of workers and makes them behave a certain way for their place of work to exist. if the Existentialist-Structuralist tradition were true then Liberalism would be a scam, and it would be a scam. it's a lot better for everyone in it if it's not true, because then nobody can come label them an evil conspiracy to turn countries into oligarchy. when you think about it, there's a fine line between scams and incorrect theories of society. if people don't know they can be forgiven, but if they do know they're labeled conspirators, con men, or any number of uglier names.

Trotsky violently attacked a republic due to his extreme views. I mean, what else do you term an assassination? anybody who doesn't realize hegemony politics currently exists (even if it's not a good thing) and treat it as if it exists is just, hanging out feeling like they owe nothing to a population continuing to exist and it's okay to let every other individual die except maybe a couple friendly businesses they buy things from if current policies benefit their own business. when you refuse to play "team sports" whole nationalities and ethnicities of people cease to be because all the people in them scatter to different capitalist cities. only a few things are more prejudiced than that. every population is based on a molecularized yet competitive process of people building populational structures through free association that at times harm each other and exist in mutual exclusion. you can't just "criticize" these without understanding their physical interaction and the fact that some of them have to be treated as correct and some as incorrect. correct structures bring down regulations on incorrect structures. this is the basis of Liberal democracy. SPS-based democulture. if one person standing by and writing a bunch of Zinovievism could change the world just because they had "good ideas" there would be no need for elections.

I think you can also go a step further and say that merely labeling something "inexcusable" is in practice the same as labeling it "obvious".

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The world needs adventurers to keep culture from stagnating -> Dragon Ball, Adventure Time season 8. there may be a kernel of truth to this in that when different populations interact they learn things, at the very least about the existence of other populations. that said, wow. it's really blown out of proportion how helpful seeing other places actually is. if things are bad at home you won't really find the holy grail somewhere else. your people will still need you to apply the knowledge you find. and as the centuries have gone on, people don't really come back to the places that need them the most, it's just turned into permanent migration out of unsuccessful places to successful places. we really need to talk about the fact that neither Goku nor Finn wants to come home to share their knowledge, both cases begin with assuming home is too far gone, and you can only be a hero through never coming back. (I think I already know what the Existentialists will say. they'll try to claim I'm turning this into a case of "Rudolph was useful". but it's not me doing it. it's the fact people are physical and there are real solutions to real material problems below the level of "discovering better culture". I also know why people make this error. they can't see that any nice group of friends is just a graph and any case of "cultural exchange" is just making the graph bigger. sometimes bigger graphs become easier to operate without becoming more efficient, but they also become more capable of oppressing anybody who actually believes in improving the structure of the graphs. really unfortunate when it comes to worldwide shipping and climate change.)

</li><li class="field_horror" value="618" data-dimension="S2">"It's your responsibility to help these misguided Hiders" (Adventure Time season 8 episode 24 "Hide and Seek") -> in just 11 minutes, this episode has so many accidental things to say about dystopian literature and anticommunist fables. one, anomalous societies are bad because they don't allow arbitrary individuals to split off and form another Culture. there is a notion created here of Culture-monopoly. two, some anomalous societies are formed as a matter of group cohesion to make sure everyone survives. this.... is one of the most accurate things a dystopian narrative has ever said, because it's the only anticommunist accusation that's actually just a true fact said in the wrong tone. yes, it is true that North Korea, early China, the Soviet Union, and kinda most workers' states really, formed to make sure people survived, and captured people into party-nations for that purpose. that's actually true. you usually have to read a bunch of Marxist texts to find that out, because most accounts of Third World countries are so stupid they don't even mention that. three. there is such a strange notion in fiction of populational creationism where populations really are made out of culture and they just culture culture culture every day to produce people, rather than people producing culture. thus, the anomalous society made out of one big blob of culture with a bunch of people skewered on top has to capture people back into culture. it's like a parasite, it's gotta get its hosts back. which leads to.... four. if culture shouldn't be capturing people, then Rhizome has inherent potential for oppression. you can't tell me Rhizome is a model of movements and it models this special movement thing people do for a moment and then stop doing. people are physical things and if Rhizome is actually going to change their minds then there's a form of Rhizome when it's expanding and flipping people over and another resting form when it's done. that resting form is the Social-Philosophical System, the loosely-linked network of people that in their daily lives all support anti-racism or whatever the movement is. that's what has to form for people to actually go vote and get other people to vote. but according to this Adventure Time episode resting Rhizome is bad, because all humans have times where they want to break out of an SPS even if its ideas are correct. this episode seems to think that all populations are Cultures and all populations can be bad anomalous Cultures from somebody's point of view leading them to break out of the population and call it dystopian. we'd better think about that kind of thing when we're trying to ask what creates Tories.

Adventure Time can't be a science fiction universe due to things like Jake spontaneously reimagining significant parts of the world. but if you take the alternate timeline where those episodes aren't true and this one is, it's one of the most single most interesting questions. if magic isn't magic then what is it? clearly, it has to be a new form of physics that doesn't exist in the real world but does exist in the fictional world. a simple set of fundamental rules complete with equations. and to some degree, isn't that observably the case? in a Pokémon game, there is an equation that damage equals base damage times type matchup multiplier. that is a physics equation. it doesn't tell us very closely about how the world works underneath, but neither do a lot of real-world physics equations! until quantum mechanics a whole lot of processes and mathematical information about them were left out. a concrete equation about how something repeatedly behaves is a physics equation. the only way out of that is to invent the term "metaphysics equation".

== MDem SSR: 19000 - 20000 ==

This range is reserved for MDem book drafts which prove to be notable in light of each other and explaining previous texts. However, it does not really make sense to give entries in this range permanent identifiers until the book is finished to some satisfactory extent of printing a few for actual "use". The new convention for SSR entries is to simply file the pages to be considered SSR Items under thesis portals in the {{TTS|html=abbr|tts=User|U:}} or {{TTS|html=abbr|tts=Philosophical Research|R:}} namespaces and not to use the {{TTS|html=abbr|tts=Ontology:Q...|E:Q...}} namespace until the work is actually finished (although making redirects to the thesis portal using {{TTS|html=abbr|tts=Ontology:Eszett...|E:ẞ...}} is okay). The entries are now being managed on [[:Category:MDem SSR|MDem SSR]].

== Early versions ==

Although I tried not to change the formatting of this page much from start to finish, it has gone through a few formatting versions.

* Late into the creation of this page, the page text got too long to properly submit through the form. The pre-division version, notably containing a Lexemes prototype and first example data table, is [[Special:PermanentLink/6785|here]].
* There was a Lexemes (Terms) prototype on this page until it got too unwieldy to remember which ones had been created and easier to simply delete them to keep track. The untouched Lexemes prototype is now [[User:Reversedragon/FirstNineThousand/Lexemes|here]].
** Lexemes originally had their own numbers until the Term namespace was introduced, at which point they were changed to use the number of whatever Item fits them the most closely.
** The rules for Lexeme Forms were first tested out at [[User:Reversedragon/FirstNineThousand/inflections]]
* There was also a Properties brainstorm, which is now at [[Philosophical Research:Properties/Numeric]].

I had a hard time naming this thing because for the longest time it didn't even make sense. "so anarchism has been turning into... an-... a-culture-ism? what even is this?"

Existentialism is in general a group of theories that ignores democracy per se and by going on and on about Free Will and The Subject tries to find the best way to invent democulture. queer theory is infamous in Tory settlements for constantly attributing the "institutional power" of homophobia and transphobia to the absence of democulture in "institutions".

"relativistic" in the sense of the universe having no center and all events having to travel at or below the speed of light in space and time to hit other objects; an object in motion not affected by another object keeps independently flying along "relativistically".

Prejudice Existentialism is purely focused on the act of constantly smashing signs in the hope that depriving people of any notion of facts or truth will lead to everyone perceiving reality correctly, although paradoxically Prejudice Existentialists typically claim that it is impossible to see reality through anything but signs and ontological models, which should make their task literally impossible to achieve for even a second. a rather intellectually dishonest field of philosophy in my opinion. if it were true that it is potentially a prejudice to call basically anything a fact, it would also be true that reality is nothing more than a bloody chunk war where whoever wins is automatically correct for the rest of history. Prejudice Existentialists have no way to actually disprove that claim, so they just resort to saying that acknowledging it to be true is Evil and equivocating everything else to be equally true is Good. I really hate the notion that morality is the only thing that's true. because first of all, how do you even know if morality is correct or real if nothing else is, how can you use it as your grounding? the problem they always run into in real life is that people all over the real world reject morality, and then when they point out prejudice as the fundamental sin that is the most obvious thing that makes any statement wrong nobody actually listens or cares. how do they know that thinking anybody cares about the concept of "prejudice" isn't a prejudice that makes their own theory obsolete?

</li><li class="field_ML" value="322" data-dimension="L">Lenin's filter -> as soon as I noticed this thing in [https://www.marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1920/dec/30.htm one of Lenin's writings] I immediately had to throw a name onto it just because it was so unusual compared to any non-Marxist writing about movements. Lenin's filter is the process of taking a coarse movement of people and building up correct answers, procedures, strategies, and movement shapes such that the movement improves itself and becomes a party-nation. according to some Maoists, the process of operating Lenin's filter is synonymous with the party itself, and I'd say that is broadly correct but I still prefer to label a filter as the process that creates the party and the Bauplan as the shape of the party-nation

I don't like this filter. it makes it very hard to distinguish the mathematical shape of progressive movements from the shape of racism, xenophobia, Colonial Exploitation, bigoted monotheisms, or the anti-mental-illness processes described by Deleuze and Guattari or Foucault. this filter is the thing that makes me outright dislike the concept of morality and feel like we need to use other methods to avoid morality ever turning into a justification for atrocities
</li><li class="field_mdem" value="329" data-dimension="L">Lattice model / The Lattice -> this is either MDem's filter or at least another mathematical transform very adjacent to filters. it's the process of taking isolated islands and linking them, going through a "search for quantum lions and avoid quantum leopards" process until people aren't isolated and are safe from being surrounded by threats. this concept can apply to many different scales from very small ones to very large ones, such it could be used to diagram going from isolated individuals all the way up to a Communist International. why is it a lattice? because it's a graph of nodes, and before meta-Marxism the idea of using graph theory to describe movements wasn't heard of as far as I know. final note: the Lattice model is different from Rhizome in that it explicitly acknowledges the possibility of many tiny plural "rhizomes" and that as separate objects they may not inherently want to come together. it's also different in that it recognizes that every tiny "rhizome" can be a different Social-Philosophical System, only deciding where to go based on what it actually believes and in no way magnetically pulled toward anything without deliberately following the Lattice model as a guide.

"extreme" conceals the concept of totalization and the contrast to a morality-based view of individual tolerance of absolutely anything and everything from other individuals or groups unless it is absolutely hazardous.

Alfred Jarry called it 'pataphysics, I just call it "meta-ontology". in a sense, it's like the SCP wiki has to use a wrong definition because the Foundation is all about containing things and keeping things normal, but 'pataphysics is actually about using such insane strategies to solve things it would go against the Foundation's typical protocols.

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="660" data-dimension="L">metagame / The Meta / metagame (V) / metagaming -> real-world surrounding staging-ground of how different people play a competitive game; figurative use of finding the best ways to play a game, similar to minmaxing but arguably includes the broader concepts of creativity and finding ways to solve many different goals - like if we have a [https://dragonball.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Fighting_games Dragon Ball simulation] you could find the most optimized way to play Gogeta, or you could find the best possible way to succeed with Tarble. in my mind both of those are "metagaming".

</li><li value="666" class="field_trotsky" data-remark="enemy/rebel" data-dimension="L">Satan / Satanism / Lucifer
<ol><li>bible definition - literally described as the opposer of God
</li><li>(Toryism) Satanic: anybody or any thing theorized to secretly be plotting Evil conspiracies to prevent everybody from joining the one correct human social circle and knowing the narrow set of behaviors and cultural associations which are Good. a wrecker who prevents realizing the Material System of world Christianity.
</li><li>Satanism: a code of morality and moral Right designed around social connection to Satan, taken as entirely figurative and poetic
</li><li>(Dragon Ball usage) Satan: someone who tells a lot of lies and is very popular - see book of Revelation
</li></ol>

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="696" data-dimension="L">post-language -> don't know if other theories have other definitions of this word. in MDem entries post-language refers to a kind of communication which eradicates all mental associations and has a hard requirement to be equally understandable to any individual who reads it anywhere regardless of what that particular individual believes words to mean. in some cases this can lead to wordy, absurdly-precise descriptions which put readers to sleep and are equally unintelligible to everybody. art is almost always written in language and hardly ever in post-language. any nonfiction statement posted to the internet almost invariably ends up having to be expressed in post-language. "logical fallacy" and "cognitive bias" guidelines very frequently force perfectly understandable language into stilted and unnatural post-language: somebody says "there are two options" not intending to rule out others, and a pedant comes along forcing a correction to "there are at least two options", "there are two major options", or "there are two options but I was not saying those were the only ones" (these explicit disclaimer clauses seem to be one of the most common forms of post-language). the "[[Philosophical_Research:Molecular_Democracy/5.2/1019_ours-democracies|ours groups]]" chapter is very deliberately and satirically written in post-language.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="697" data-dimension="L">nonsense -> oddly enough, has several jargon definitions. nonsense mutation; non-sense (Lacanianism); others?
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="698" data-dimension="L">bull -> I'm hesitant to quite put "bullshit" in the first 2000 Lexemes, although I don't see any reason it shouldn't be added after that; we've gotta contain our swearwords somewhere before we ban them, and what better place than here? oh well, now this term can also contain senses of "bullcrap".
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="699" data-dimension="L">spaghetti / spaghetti code / ontological spaghetti -> literal food; difficult to understand code; completely meaningless-sounding plate of unfamiliar philosophy words that never seems to get easier to understand (meta-Marxist term first used to mock Lacanianism). similar to "word salad", but with the difference that it strongly appears to actually mean something due to its proper lexical structure of signs and statements until the points at which all the self-referentiality and insular forms of meaning render it impossible to actually comprehend or explain to anybody. ontological spaghetti is twisted and woven into a neat yet unexplainable structure just like spaghetti noodles.

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="700" data-dimension="L">narrative -> history; legend; fantasy book; of or relating to dramatization techniques; slanted sociophilosophy; fascist rhetoric; single official record of history everybody is fighting over; etc. this word is an adventure in itself

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="702" data-dimension="L">unicorn -> first I think of the usage of something that nearly never appears, then of the notion that unicorns are 'wonderful', then the notion that they are overrated
</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="703" data-dimension="L">dragon -> like lions these creatures have multiple readings as monsters or as strong beings of courage. monster; courage; Satanic anathema; word reused for arbitrary new creatures; plurality, diversity, outright used in scheme of Media Representation (<cite>Dragon Masters</cite>)

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="706" data-dimension="L">hero -> has fairly common pejorative usage dismissing its possibility; also, the concept that reactionaries can have heroes and they certainly aren't other people's heroes
</li><li class="field_horror" value="707" data-dimension="L">villain -> driving arts experts crazy by including descriptivist accounts of fans downgrading villains to antagonists and explaining the hell out of them. I love it because as much as some people are total beginners at writing, it does show they're thinking about things and questioning the assumptions of real or fictional societies
</li><li class="field_horror" value="708" data-dimension="L">immortality -> why is this word 2/3 of the time a backdoor to sneak Buddhism and its model of the individual into Christian or progressive-philosophical discourse. the moment before we discuss fiction people have ordinary comprehensible definitions of what life and death are. the moment we start talking about "immortality" suddenly everyone on earth believes in Buddhism and thinks life and death are each totally different things from what they usually are.
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="709" data-dimension="L">immortal -> separate Lexeme which contains the concept in Buddhism sloppily called this when it's something different

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="710" data-dimension="L">verisimilitude / verisimilitudinous / verisimilar -> very relevant when analyzing fiction. why are Marxist analyses of fiction possible when in theory it should be that fiction can be anything at all and a great number of authors do not know anything about Marxism? because of verisimilitude. people create fictional ontologies by superficially copying real-life ontologies, which can amusingly result in fiction containing ontologies that are specifically realistic enough they provide for the possibility of Bolshevism.

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="776" data-dimension="L">bookman's bluff -> when an author tries to claim that the story goes together and makes sense on some level even though it doesn't. [https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue/comments/gi29qv/tomt_whats_the_name_of_the_term_when_an_author/] can turn into Calvinball if done really well to continuously expand mistakes into believable lore; can turn into a scottcon if done badly.
</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="777" data-dimension="L">signifier mad libs -> when an audience fails to ask what a fiction or non-fiction work is actually trying to communicate and begins carelessly filling in all the nouns, verbs, and adjectives with their own meanings

== Unsorted Lexemes ==

* egoism
* individualism
* meta-ontologically sound / meta-ontological soundness -> a statement is meta-ontologically sound when it would be recognized as true by anyone in any ideological faction or interest-having population of people which has a high school education and does not believe blatantly false statements. those are a little hard to find for Toryism, of course, but educated Tories do exist; they're a bit scary because they see all the evidence that progressives point to without being able to deny it, and then spin that factual information as bad to protect some pre-defined set of interests like "my family" or "my socially-linked several-state-sized reactionary subpopulation of White people". the good news is that a lot of statements by Tories fail to be meta-ontologically sound even if they're based on lists of true facts because there are reasons they blatantly cannot be recognized as true by other ideologies.
* slider-speak -> this didn't have its own term in MDem drafts until very very recently. for a while I called it generalized alchemy, or metaphysics, or mistaking the ability to create adjectives for reality. I still think those all fit fine. but we need to really stop and characterize this thing at length so we genuinely see how weird it is.
* stealth activism -> this is a totally stupid term for a reasonable thing. the definition I heard almost reduced it down to taking over structures and Each Individual In Parallel Culturing Better. which is... very Gramscian. it may be necessary and even effective but my one issue is I wish nobody would use the word activism for it. it's like. sure, you can do that. but there eventually comes a point where you're preserving particular oppressive countable Cultures for the hell of it and committing to take the steering wheel of the oppression bus and run it a little less bad, while — here is the real problem that overshadows any other concern — you're part of an overall national population which by its own existence justifies torching other people-groups in an act of self-defense murder just because the national population exists. self-defense genocide exists now. (even though it did exist in 1800, I know.) do you know what kind of atom-thick hair edge Gramscianism is operating on? do people even know that. one day you can be doing ""stealth activism"" and the next day the people you barely shifted over to win one issue could be torching you too, because two different swaths of stealth-activists for different issues ended up on different sides of the Torching Unamericans divide where only so many people fit in the core group of people truly allowed to live. as time goes on I increasingly feel like Gramscianism is an elite ideology and it's not really for the people who actually get hurt by Toryism or "fascism". why do you need Gramscianism if you already fit into institutions well enough to infiltrate them?
* cultural context -> this phrase kills me because I feel like it is used for ten different things and every time people say it they're using it to get out of distinguishing those things from each other. Foucault used it to describe a stage of development of class society, with actual structures and territory-owners. a Deltarune video I listened to used it to describe people living in one US state instead of another, literally just the geographical region people live in and the weather and climate they had experiences about. see why it's not actually a very clear thing? people are conditioned to think populations are made out of culture and culture can easily be used to distinguish populations but then when they describe what culture is they're often describing things that come almost strictly before culture per-se.
* military-cultural complex -> this is what has existed since the Cold War. this is what I have been trying to get at with descriptions of all socially-linked groups of people generating The State to protect the sheer existence of their socially-linked group of friends.
* Herculean task
* Sisyphean task
* Minosian task -> a task so bad you lock it away
* Promethean task -> "something you know is the right thing to do but you still get punished for it"
* Odyssean task -> task that "should have been simple but everything goes wrong in the worst ways making it insanely long"
* Orphean task -> when you are doomed to fail for the same reasons you are desperate to succeed
* solidarity -> the more I read about this word the more it sounds to me like it's a question rather than an answer. it began around the time of the French Revolution but every single person trying to create a new theory of how to build society defined it a bit differently. I really think solidarity is just a word more than it's a concept. to actually achieve proletarian solidarity you need to define new much more specific concepts like filtration
* recursion -> fractal process of some kind; programming usage; specific cybernetics use
* world party -> pros of Bordigism: actually talks about patterns of party operation which are oddly specific. cons of Bordigism: I don't have the slightest idea what any of these things are.
* essentialism
* anti-essentialism -> one of the better theories for understanding human individuals themselves rather than whole populations
* strategic essentialism -> a particular concept of benign nationalism used in context of national independence from global empire, as in India. I am trying so hard not to say the words "culture", "colonial", or "postcolonial" because I feel like that cluster of concepts has muddied up absolutely everything and made every single struggle people are trying to get through across the world harder. why did we all decide people were made of culture rather than [[redlink - Hyper-Materialism|being made of people and populations]]. why did we do that.
* strategic anti-essentialism -> George Lipsitz (b.1947). the act of resisting membership in a particular restrictive Social-Philosophical System of culture by expressing the practices of a different Social-Graph System of culture. see: Satanism and Gnosticism, wiccans and pagan revival, schizoanalysis, United States otaku.
* agent -> already used to describe the concept of Group Subjects in slightly obscure biology/ecology research
* solidarity -> original definition of Third World proletarian subpopulations standing together against all owning classes; vulgarized definition where it has been co-opted into the entirely different idea of Existentialist individuals throughout multiple First World countries standing together because they are The Subject. this word is like, the day that Marxism absolutely died because Marxists ceased being aware that the First World was weaponizing the notions of "empathy" and "community" to defend all scales of chunk competition and crush empathy, community, and solidarity alike.
* denial of coloniality -> way better phrasing than trying to turn every word for empire into a word for prejudices in people's heads
* The West -> it's always been really weird to me people say this. it always weirdly feels as if people passively acknowledge the existence of a British Empire after the British Empire.
* The East
* Filamentocracy -> add to "Filament"
** democulture is the class ideology of Filamentocracy. that's just it. that's why people believe in democulture and Goku's filter
* intersubjectivity
* Market Society -> this came up in MDem v4.3 and kind of fell off as a major topic although it very much stayed a term. near synonym for primitive Existentialism but focuses more on the notion of isolation. coined to mock the term "market economy" by pointing out what economies really are: society itself. socioeconomies.
* [S2] Kirby is a metaphor for humanity / Kirby is the quintessential Subject -> really funny copypasta [https://www.reddit.com/r/copypasta/comments/afr9xc/kirby_is_a_metaphor_for_humanity/] [https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue/comments/gi29qv/tomt_whats_the_name_of_the_term_when_an_author/] <s>somebody seems to have dreamed up while up into the morning unable to sleep, I mean that's my injection of my own experience but yeah.</s> from a Polygon video? I was just trying to find the definition of "bookman's bluff" and here we are
* free-floating -> add to "free"; very similar usage to an object being "knocked free" or "wrested free"
* constructive process -> related to "construct" as is also used as a verb
* destructive process
* nationogenesis -> the slow or quick assembly of individuals within an existing national population into a new nation and spatially-unique realized Bauplan. the reason this "needed" a new word is that it can happen with people of the same ethnic group and religion and who are overall seemingly the same group of people in every way, yet who spontaneously begin drifting into totally new groups of people thanks to the news station they listen to, their incomplete understanding of Leninism, or some other factor that would be unexpected to most people
* postification / post- / post-ify -> not used many times in v5.2 in favor of returning to plainer language, but the concept is always there in basically every chapter
* physics as equalling factical systems; physics as relativistic causality exchange
* thought / think -> logical process Lexeme
* modal realism: all hypothetically possible worlds are technically real. David Lewis.
* economy / socioeconomy
* socioeconomy, sociophilosophy, socioempire, sociocurrency
* rival / rivalrous -> I forget why I added this. it had something to do with Creative Commons and "non-rivalrous goods" and some killer analogy I'd gotten from that vaguely related to chunk competition or graph economics but I forget the exact connection I made. I think it was something like, when everyone lives in rivalrous houses, and has to pay for them with rivalrous jobs, and it's so easy to totally slip past anyone else's attention because people have to "spend" their attention on one thing or another, it's hard for anything to really actually be non-rivalrous. populations are rivalrous, countable Cultures are rivalrous, physical individuals are rivalrous. you have to overcome all of that just to create a non-rivalrous good

Valenoern: description / tunes

This is where I keep pieces of music I've composed. 
A paper tunebook is a little quaint in an age of video streaming, I know. But I have a terrible problem that I'm much better at composing music than creating any recordings that remotely sound okay. I don't have good recording devices, I don't have good recording environments, I don't have good music programs, I don't have anything. Just a little program called <code>abcm2ps</code> that converts plain text to something highly resembling sheet music. Either way I {{em|will}} have a video channel up so you can listen to my bad recordings of these songs. My other "secret": I play the tunes from memory like a jazz musician, and I only make the [https://www.talkbass.com/threads/charts-v-sheet-music.1086336/ charts] to match them afterward.

Some of these songs are actually by RD, who sends me their own bad recordings to make into charts.

Valenoern: Sketches are superpositions

{{BopCSS}}
I ([[User:Reversedragon|R.D.]]) am a bit obsessive about numbers. I had a problem with the idea of Items having small numbers that at the same time were arbitrary. What would be number 10?? What would be number 1?? 
I considered making all the entries in this wiki take their IDs from the timestamp they were created at, but when Wikibase had no clear way of doing that and it was already installed, I decided it would be easier to do this instead: map out the first 3000-9000 Item entries to the best numbers I can think of, and then stop worrying. A little later, I'd go a step further and scrap Wikibase to make editing individual Items and downloading them as text files particularly easy in all browsers, and allow for Item identifiers to be as pronounceable as possible thanks to the ability to add commas or redirects inside the same namespace.

This is the first prototype of every Item in order. After this, I began to create specific [[Philosophical Research:Ontology namespace|"Ontology" Categories]] for particular fields and media series, and to create [[Help:Hue lists|hue list templates]] to more consistently display the same proposed Item across pages. This page will not use any of the later html-saving templates in order to preserve a more basic and manual version of the [[Help:Hue lists|hue list]] markup. However, some especially verbose sections of chapters, episodes, short stories, etc. have been moved to Ontology pages to make the list easier to navigate.

You should be warned that there may be a lot of particular opinions on this page. Whenever I wrote any idea down I poured out the first thoughts that came to my mind on it. I had no intention that any of these first-thoughts would be a permanent part of any of the Item pages that would not change. Some of them were meant as loose guidelines for further examining each thing and collecting research or analyses of them on their pages in a general way, but only really as a starting place. I've always had the rule that [[redlink|"angry" does not belong on Item pages]], thus I sometimes absolutely went off here to avoid it going there. Also, you are encouraged to create alternate prototype pages scrawled on Category pages or [[:User Spaces for Special Research|in connection with other thesis portals]] — the only major rules are that all prototype notes should be archived on an early revision of their corresponding Item page (whether they are deleted or superseded in later revisions, which is fully expected), and that when somebody actually establishes a block of useful concepts within the Ontology namespace you must build off what is already there while moving existing Items only when there is some relatively important reason another Item should be using that number. If an Item is on a prototype page and has not been properly created, then it is not an issue to move things around, but you should try to keep related blocks together.

Item status: Wikibase set to be removed / Property data must be recovered first, then Wikibase extensions will be disabled / Ontology pages are now canonical Item pages 
Once the items on this page have been created, it will be natural for the names and purposes of the items to evolve somewhat over time, and there is no need for anyone to worry about whether the current set of items is "following" this prototype page. Items will become [[:Category:Ontology portals|grouped into specific topic-based Ontology pages]] such that following the list is less unwieldy, or [[:Category:Ontology entries by number|paginated numeric lists]] including the actual Items by template.

<ol class="hue clean reset">

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Sketches are superpositions / Sketches are linear combinations of possible drawn lines, allowing for quickly drawing a shape by drawing all possible lines first and then getting rid of the wrong ones

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Israel is the purpose of capitalism / The act of displacing groups of people with other groups of people is the core cycle or "gameplay loop" of capitalism, which is to say, capitalism on a normal day is not very different from capitalism backing Israel

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Time is never linear / Physical time as it existed before humans and mammals or before the earth formed is never linear -> this assumes a nominal distinction between time and history where something that happened a hundred years ago on earth relative to something else on earth is history, but something that happened only a second ago two paces away is far closer to being categorized as time.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="F2">Linear time steals our attention -> this is contradictory. the act of creating linear time is the act of an individual controlling attention toward the end state of a particular narrative. even anarchists define it this way. that means if you don't do it, then your attention is unregulated and up for grabs. if you do rebel against surrounding attempts to fit you into a temporal narrative, you create a narrative.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Nonlinear time steals our attention -> this is more believable. time itself is always nonlinear. this is to say that whenever ads and microblog news feeds are "stealing your attention", it's many parallel timelines all attacking you at once and trying to make you a part of them at once. as well, any capitalist trying to fit you into a linear timeline is merely one of many capitalists all simultaneously attacking you in the same way, where the others just can't get you at the moment if you're taken.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Dictators are unpredictable / All the great dictators are unpredictable / Successful dictators are unpredictable

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Unpredictable leaders are dictators / Successful leaders who are unpredictable are dictators -> on one hand I hate this. the Existentialist concept of a "[[E:generalized dictator|dictator]]" is not based in material realities of countries having to set boundaries around involuntary relationships. 
on the other, it's quite a funny thing to turn around on anarchism when they are claiming chaos magic is a good idea. everyone will think you're a dictator and attempt to lock you up

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">LLMs are the result of mystifying The Subject
</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">LLMs are the result of mystifying language

</li><li class="field_exstruct" data-tradition="HAS" value="618" data-dimension="S">morning pages {{YouTube|ANcJgvAJFaU}} / morning book -> the concept of writing down thoughts that are either distracting or potentially useful to save for later in order to think more clearly. a prototypical morning book happens literally in the morning, but the same concept could happen at any particular somewhat repeating time. 
I've never needed a morning book because I grew up in the era of blogging (albeit within microblog newsfeeds) and I just learned to take any actually useful thoughts and write them down in their own blog post and then categorize the blog posts by project or theme to find later. I don't even need a special "note-taking database", I just... put them in a text file. at some point we created bop format to make that process a little more organized and practically feasible.
</li><li class="field_exstruct" data-tradition="HAS" value="618" data-dimension="S">commonplace book {{YouTube|ANcJgvAJFaU}} -> essentially what all these Items are supposed to be doing, only in a much larger, potentially-social context.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" data-tradition="HAS" value="618" data-dimension="S">communication iceberg -> the motif that languages only refer to deep icebergs of ontology in people's minds and that's how one word especially in a specific place or with a specific gesture can imply an entire sentence.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" data-tradition="A" value="618" data-dimension="S">anarchy! ...I can't pronounce vowels / anarchy! ...I can't pronounce breathy voice {{YouTube|g7KWAsGwB38}} -> the motif of anarchists trying to imagine an international auxiliary language created in the interests of [[E:a-culture-ism|anarculture]] and then dropping the ball halfway, because they don't have the skills to actually speak another language than English or French or whatever their main language is, because they don't realize language is a matter of long-term skills and education to be able to do a particular thing well and not just a matter of arbitrary decisions. I don't have ill will toward people like this, it's more the case that I simply find it a really interesting case study. 
what is tolerance? is it intolerance just to not know other languages? if bilingual people can be bigots, are only trilingual people tolerant? how many languages do you have to know before you become tolerant? are international auxiliary languages bigotry because they aren't the act of two people learning each other's languages? are creole languages more tolerant? are constructed languages bigotry for taking time away from learning to speak real languages?

</li><li class="field_horror" data-tradition="Fy" value="618" data-dimension="S2">{{film|Jumanji}} {{YouTube|9sVpAE4F3m4}} -> wouldn't be immediately interesting in context of Marxism until people pointed out it was a global-empire horror story. one of many many stories that try to portray "other populations' revenge" against Britain and the United States. it's worth looking closely at the fact that these stories almost seem accidentally progressive in saying that Third World countries will not sit down, but actually, the reason they get made and approved is that they portray Third World countries {{em|as scary monsters}} — not challenging prejudice, and instead portraying other countries as extra dangerous.

</li><li class="field_gramsci" data-tradition="DX" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Filling Vietnam with factories will eventually create proletarian consciousness {{YouTube|HAEgTPK-oiU}} -> this is like. a quintessential admission that the biggest problem Marxism faces is there is hardly ever actually "a proletariat" in the sense Marx observed in Germany, and the proletariat {{em|and the proletarian revolution}} only form after you create a workers' state. apparently having used Leninist revolution to defeat something other than capitalism. we all know "the pain of capitalism" and yet we don't actually live in capitalism. 
with China, it's pretty obvious why this is: China was still a feudal order at the time of Maoism, so saying that Maoism defeated something other than capitalism totally checks out. likewise, North Korea didn't defeat capitalism, it defeated slavery. I'm not sure exactly what Vietnam defeated. looks like... [https://alphahistory.com/vietnamwar/august-revolution/ a client state with a puppet government]? huh. and in a weird turn of events Imperial Japan was expelled from Vietnam just because World War II was going on and First World countries hated each other. that reveals a lot about how the First World conceptualizes history — Communism is not okay because the normal course of Vietnamese history is the United States dropping a nuclear bomb on Japan and burning civilians to cinders. this makes the whole uproar about 9/11 make so much less sense when we basically saved Vietnam with a gigantic act of terrorism. 
so, Deng Xiaoping Thought conceptualizes proletarian revolution differently from mainstream Marxism-Leninism, but not necessarily in a sense that's wrong. it embraces Marxism-Leninism on the point that societies have to become conscious of their current structure and take control of it to defeat it — which happened. then it claims that proletarian revolution, in the broadest sense of society churning over into a truly proletarian economic structure that spits out a proletarian superstructure, is way in the future and Marxism hasn't actually been about the proletariat... "yet". this becomes a little bit of an absurdity in the context of the United States, where the country can develop for 200 years and become highly developed and one of the most privileged countries on earth and yet end up with no proletariat in a lot of places, the proletariat having been this transient phenomenon while hiring and firing and changing jobs is one of the most enduring processes along with new tiny businesses constantly cropping up and businesses of all sizes decaying away into nothing. it's like, has the proletariat ever existed anywhere? or have we gotten all of this stuff about the proletariat wrong? I think there's a case for that, that we've attributed a bunch of stuff to the proletariat that is actually due to a bunch of other more complex processes that Lenin somehow navigated correctly without bothering to explain. so, there are different models of Marxism. there is "Marxism-Stalinism" (thanks [[E:The Excessive Subject (Rothenberg 2010)|Rothenberg]]), there is Marxism-Dengism, and there are possibly others. there may be a Marxism-Trotskyism that somehow no Trotskyist has actually discovered yet but would become a theory if they all turned around and realized that they were promoting division instead of unity and the destruction of Communist Internationals instead of the creation of a meta-Marxist type International containing all viable Marxisms. it's not entirely clear yet how many valid but unappreciated variants of Marxism there are.

Trotskyists could not figure this out and tried to operate from the model that society has a single consciousness and it needs to all become Trotskyist, rather than that Trotskyists are a new tiny society that suddenly sheared off from the main society. it was equally dangerous for the CPSU to not realize that Trotskyites were not necessarily ready to be squashed into the main population. Bolshevism faces a thorny contradiction: capitalism is the division of society into arbitrary competing chunks, nations are the division of humanity into arbitrary competing chunks, humanity must be unified to get rid of class rule and prejudice, humanity cannot be unified all at once, the presence of division threatens to destroy Bolshevism, forced unification threatens to become colonial prejudice against nationalities, the "ideal" position is clearly to get upset at Communists for locking down around separate countries but not let them do anything to create a Third International and unify countries together, shattering every part of Communism. of course, all you have to do to fix this is realize that in the grand scheme of things small chunks are similar to big chunks. if Stalin isn't allowed to promote socialism in one country then Trotsky isn't allowed to create a second party. inversely, if Trotsky wants to be allowed to organize people for Trotskyism what he should do is allow Stalin's government to create their party and attempt to join together with them as a parallel Marxism so each of them will be stronger. each one doing different things internally but united on the outside. it kills me that the Soviet Union can exist as 14 parallel populations and nobody ever thinks of this. even if Trotskyism feels like the point of it is to act on huge scales it could still focus its energy on operating in the areas that glue "Stalinist" countries together. this is the way Leninist parties function. they are things put together into a whole, not an adversarial process. this is one of the only things that remains when a country transitions to Deng Xiaoping Thought giving it continuity back to Leninism that makes it just barely admissible as "a Marxism" even if its status as Leninism/Bolshevism is dubious or void. 
so, yeah. the big problem with Communist Internationals is that they have to start from teeny scales deep inside populations and go up to the international scale, because the true place humanity gets divided is the messy continuous divisions that can occur inside borders as well as at them. this poses problems for "revolution" when the teeny tiny splinter populations that spontaneously form every so often can easily be useless to nationwide movements and yet if a revolution goes through and you want to keep what you have, they really have to be accounted for or you have no way of stopping populations from fracturing into nothing all over again.

this issue is step zero toward getting Existentialism or anarchism to ever, ever succeed. forget meta-Marxism and finding the best Marxism — if you want anarchism to not be wiped off the face of the earth under the boot of a bunch of nazis you need to understand this. most signs of humanity being "kind" or "communitarian" or "social" are false signs. "community" as most people define it is a double-edged sword that also cuts people to pieces. commu-nity doesn't work. unless, of course, you want to give it a different, more narrow definition. 
the upshot of this is that it makes articles like the type specimen for "Existentialist inspiration porn" easier to intuitively identify as dubious. do you really know people coming together to fund a hospital is a good sign that people will continue to cooperate on things that aren't terribly basic, rather than shearing apart?

Liberal-republicanism usually assumes that people voting for a candidate they don't hate has the power to make other people support the new candidate. but if it's really true that people voting for a bad candidate has more effect, then for most people in the United States voting and talking about voting are simply a waste of time. five people in each U.S. state, ideally news reporters who are absolutely obsessed with negative consequences of candidates and allegiances to each candidate, would be able to calculate the best candidate based on what candidate would cause the most dissatisfaction among people who think that candidate is good. this is... a bizarrely Trotskyist interpretation of Liberal-republicanism. although Trotskyists don't typically go around saying that the best strategy to drum up support for Trotskyism is intentionally "installin'" Stalin, the pattern of claiming that one news reporter knows exactly what candidates should get the position based on all the people that don't like them is familiar. it almost, but not quite, provides an interesting insight. people in the United States genuinely [[E:Democracy for Realists|"un-vote" rather than "vote"]]. they "un-vote" for candidates they didn't like, but they don't truly vote for candidates because they like them, it's more like they vote just so they have something to take back. just so they can persuade themselves they have something to take back as punishment when they aren't happy. when the system has never actually been designed to accommodate that. it's always been designed so that voting is like paying for something and signing a set of terms and conditions, where you always pay a cost unless you could simply not buy and use the thing at all. (this is actually a problem with products sometimes, too. the inability to "negative-buy" something can keep products consistently unsatisfactory for a long time the more complicated and service-like and mired in exclusive deals the "product" gets.) not voting doesn't actually serve this purpose, because it doesn't counter the actions of all the people who voted for something when they shouldn't have. there isn't actually a form of voting which allows people to express "I really don't want this president" after the president is elected. approval rating doesn't do anything. there has to be a real threat of removing the president if people anti-vote hard enough.

Lived Experience theories are noumenological. within science, some cases of noumenology neatly unify with phenomenological descriptions of an interior process culminating in a new accepted model. one case of this would be the period of physicists constructing quantum mechanics from various confusing observations and then eventually being able to show that quantum mechanics "most likely" is able to evaluate upward to larger-scale phenomena in almost every case but gravity.

I wonder, could you burn things up by trying to poke the proton with a stick? would the acceleration be that bad? or would it just fly backward like a normal atom? we're assuming it has the mass of a proton, so when it's impossibly big it would probably be able to float in some substances, maybe even in air because that is a ridiculous density. it's also true that a proton can be a normal atom — a hydrogen ion. so you might think of it as just a huge gas molecule. could you pick it up with a magnet?

a "relativistic Marxism" is in contradiction with the concept of a molecular Marxism. one resembles special relativity in being made from tiny reterministic pieces accelerating past each other that must stack up to history but do not have the ability to see or measure each other until they do, the other resembles quantum mechanics in being made from miscellaneous individuals assembling into shared consistent structures that assemble into bigger structures much like quarks assemble into protons that assemble into atoms. the sticky thing is in getting everyone angled toward RDem to work together with everyone hypothetically angled toward MDem. it's weirdly like humans really are giant particles somehow and the day we crack Marxism and the day we unify special relativity and quantum mechanics into some new "general quantum" theory will come right next to each other. spacetime and history are not as different as we want to believe, and may just be the same kind of thing at different scales.

I think that in some sense, yes, particles have to complete some kind of journey from reference frame A to reference frame B to be physical. and my long shot guess of how is that we make some kind of mistake in thinking that all the tiny reference frames can be put onto any single grid that's just one big warped sheet of spacetime instead of assuming the whole universe is more like one big ball of sand where all the grains are the reference frames. the divisions between the grains could be something of a mathematical artifact more than physical, a consequence of the joining of various grains to stretch and compact spacetime being the only thing in the universe that's truly unpredictable, a consequence of the one tiny gap between reality and mathematics that will never be crossed. even so I don't think that means we can't learn what gravity is. we can see it at larger emergent levels, so, assuming the borders between these reference frame grains were producing gravity, you'd solve the problem by making a probabilistic model kind of like physicists papered over the difficulty of observing fundamental particles in quantum mechanics. I think a model of gravity as good as quantum mechanics is possible, even if it could be the case gravity is one of the few things so small we really cannot measure it and can really only calculate it backward calculus-style by measuring its effects. maybe penteract space and sand-grain reference frames are nonsense, but here's the most reasonable thing I'll say: I think there will one day be a small-scale model of gravity.

(that sentence is a wonderful example of how almost every English sentence spoken in the United States abuses "we" to refer to the concept of "{{TTS|tts=I's|Is}}, pluralizing I".) so you need this unreal level of precision. I'm not talking about organizing where you just assemble people, I'm talking about filtration where you actually put people into a structure. I'm not talking about revolution where people are suddenly in a conflict, I'm talking about unifying people together into a structure to end perpetual cold war that everyone has to stay in until it can actually defend itself. I'm not talking about classes, where person A and person B are workers, I'm talking about capable subpopulations of people linked together that are harder to break apart than to negotiate with. 
interesting to note: anarchists don't really talk about "means of production" in this same sense. Lenin did, assigning a different owner to them than Western-Marxists, but anarchists don't. anarchists frequently talk about peasant life or tribal populations or some imaginary Kropotkinist city which is holistic but they don't really fixate on the concept of corporate or government social structures as they exist in Liberal republics and rearranging those exact structures to create something better. that seems to be a major divide between anarchists and Existentialists. Existentialists {{em|do}} hijack the concept of means of production or "instutitions", usually because they're copying Liberalism, but that may not be true in every case.

this one bit me. I got fed up with it because The Lefts were asking people to do things that were physically impossible, going to protests that don't exist and pitting 2 people against 100 people, and I just genuinely did not understand how it made any sense as a model of reality that was supposed to solve the problem. and it made people angry. people got super angry if you didn't tell people to "support" movements that wide swaths of people can't even contribute anything to where you'd really just be telling a chain of people to tell each other lies about how involved they are in causing the problem and how much they can do to stop it but otherwise do nothing. this was before I knew any Marxism. I was in an almost ideal untouched state of not being "corrupted" by Marxism and suddenly generic progressives are putting people through the ringer demanding people understand things even their experts don't have the tools to understand, which mesh poorly with all the other contradictory things they believe to supposedly Create Society Good and where nothing makes any sense. the anarchists and generic-progressives threw me out of society for not understanding contradictory things and I never really found any way back in. I just ended up in hell where every progressive, reactionary, and non-political person, maybe the Marxists too, want to stomp me for not successfully being human and the regret of being born that I always had is at its peak. I eventually came to the conclusion that anarchism genuinely doesn't make any sense and clearing people's minds of non-anarchism doesn't make it make any more sense, and the only way to actually create effective movements where a bunch of people don't just sit around begins at deconstructing every part of anarchism, including the superficially sensical parts like "community and communities". when you look into them they don't actually make sense. these "processes" don't explain how they themselves function and don't simply fail. biologists can explain how a pancreas succeeds or fails. physicists can explain when fundamental particle interactions do and don't happen, at least to a satisfactory extent, even when relativity and quantum mechanics only partly line up and don't perfectly line up. anarchists can hardly explain the processes behind anything.

</li><li class="field_mdem" data-tradition="MX" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Labor is a bourgeois activity / Labor is a bourgeois activity in the sense that the more labor you put into something as an individual the more you betray the concept of stable structures which can liberate people from capitalism -> the more I think about the concept of libraries and thrift stores, the more I think, in the framework of Lenin and his torn-up shards of Ricardo it really should have been that the point of socialist transition is to have so many used things you make as few new things as possible. in some cases that's not applicable. in some cases the used things will be recycled material, compost, seeds that are not ridiculously patented against reuse. in the ideal cases such as books and computer parts, you should simply get to the point where most workers are distributing things instead of manufacturing them and some workers are maintaining digital servers that distribute things at the greatest ease. every time we deviate from that pattern we create exploitation: allow owners to try to prolong the era of physical products and you get the crazy abuses of Amazon drivers who have to physically deliver used things, allow owners to prolong the era of new products and they get to keep exploiting factory workers and moving them all to the Third World, allow owners to prolong the era of people getting to be Career Artists and career problem solvers and even that pushes back the timeline for stopping overproduction and abuse of the Third World and delivery driver abuse. 
it often feels like the only way to strike at the root of it is to actually tell people, no, we have too many things, too many distinct individual things versus quantities of those things, you don't inherently deserve to create something, and if you agree not to create something new we don't inherently need you going to college — unless you already have a very specific trade to do and you know exactly what training is required. no, you're not inherently virtuous for doing more labor on something or getting more training. no, you're not inherently making the world better by creating a small business for people to give money to, you're exacerbating the problem of millions and millions of businesses constantly trying to drain people's attention. no, giving businesses a human face is not inherently good, because the more people can see a human face the more they'll want you to be absolutely perfect and try to get rid of you the moment you're not, and trust me, it will only hurt more if you're an Artist or the more you've put passion into it. you want to be faceless. the point of sociality is to make the individual faceless. to remove the individual from competition with other free-floating entities. you don't want parts of society and individuals to be the same thing. individuals eat and occupy space and hurt each other when they're starving and hold up guns. you don't want societal compartments doing that. society will always evolve. the act of doing labor will always actually pile up into the creation of new things like corporate studios that replace old things like artisanal practices. nobody wants to understand that for some reason, and the result is a million businesses constantly vying for everyone's attention with more opening every day and no end in sight. it seems like every time somebody gets upset at capitalism and is like "why is capitalism controlling me and stealing my attention" they go open another business and make the problem worse.

Work is stealing. Every act of working is stealing. Whenever you perform labor on anything you are always stealing the opportunity for someone else judiciously wielding their "non-narrative thinking" in order to believe in themselves to have done it better. White people steal from Black people all the time by working and telling them "you couldn't have done that thing as well as me, so you don't deserve a house loan, now get out of here". White people steal from Chinese people by trying to claim they can't take ownership of the patents and schematics other countries are making them produce. White people and Japanese people stole from Koreans by insisting there be a South Korea just so it could be part of UnitedStatesKoreaJapan instead of part of Korea. White people steal from Cubans by denying them the same trade routes they demand that other countries create just to stay standing and {{em|not}} get stolen. Nothing about the concept of stealing actually makes any sense. People complain about stealing existing and some group of people supposedly having stolen something when they feel like two groups of people are not forming relationships correctly and engaging in the exact same set of cultural rules and want to mark one of the groups of people as "cheating" at the act of forming into a single set of rules correctly. The concept of stealing was invented by Existentialist-Structuralist anarchologists. or at least, looking at the structure of the logic it'd seem that way. if you want to predict whether somebody will actually consider something to be "stealing" it's best to cross out all instances of that word and see if you can describe it with the word "cheating". as much as the concept of "cheating" is also subjective it does get at the slippery reasons that people actually reject things. nobody actually cares if you do or don't "own" an essay, as the world is cruel and nobody cares about the state of people successfully owning usable businesses or houses or not; what gets rules sheets and professors so weirdly furious about "plagiarism" is that it's cheating at the established system of ranking up within academia relative to a cloud of other living breathing people who are also trying to rank up and not get removed. every act of trying to do anything "honestly" is actually an act of trying to socially fit into a cloud of thousands of competing people who are all constantly individually judging you. 
and deep down, that really scares me. I always feel like no matter how hard I try at anything there's going to be some reason people will decide I'm not honest just because whenever I try anything I tend to reach a point where I am just too bad at some required part of doing a thing and I won't be able to do it "good" in a way that will make it intuitively feel "genuine" to them. maybe I try to make a video but I make it as a talk instead of a visual presentation, and I just know some people are going to hate it because it's a slideshow or an audio file or because I don't have any budget to spend on stock footage and I would have to doodle the slides or find images I have reason to believe are not special and meant to be used. maybe I try to write a book and discuss scientific thinking but I half know people are going to hate it because I don't truly know all the quantum mechanics math and I've been {{censor||bullshitt|ing}} my way around it with simpler math objects and a firm cage of well-checked propositions as I learn the good stuff slowly. maybe I try to create fiction but I know people are going to hate it because as much as I have really poured feeling and thought into it after however many years of trying I will not have become inherently good at Representing the Plurality of All Lived Experiences And Walks Of Life And How They Are All Inherently Relatable To Each Other On An Intuitive Level Without Science. maybe I try to build a proposition encyclopedia here but I know that if I have any fun with it people are going to hate it for a while until the day I make everything absolutely meta-ontologically sound so that all the Item pages are immediately comprehensible to people of every version of Marxism and also every bourgeois philosophy. and I'm naturally {{censor|shit}} at movements. if somebody is judging someone or angry at someone I can't talk water off a wet paper bag. everything I do every day even in my own building there is someone who is going to be judging me and telling me I'm not existing right and sometimes I don't want to wake up and exist when I swear other people are better at it than me and if I want to be honest and not a cheater I should just get out. 
It's like this. everything has become ridiculously Artisanal. the longer capitalism goes on the more every possible thing people can do becomes this weird little spatial slot hierarchy where honesty becomes synonymous with being actually talented and masterful at something and not doing something to the highest artisanal skill slowly becomes regarded as cheating and under some particular sets of conditions as stealing. Both sets of criteria are made up. they are fabricated on demand in response to contingent sets of conditions. and the role of them is to police the borders of a countable culture to enforce the physical constraint that it cannot contain an infinite number of people and must contain some finite number of people who follow each other's rules and like each other. inside a country every Culture is a {{censor|circlejerk}}. we are probably lying to ourselves that there's any such thing as Community at all. or maybe it's just that we confuse countable cultures with Community when that is one of the most improper models we could have. the bourgeoisie and Community are disgustingly intertwined. they {{em|will}} take the sheer act of existing in a population away from you and let a select Filament of people own that to the exclusion of new people being born. Existentialism-Structuralism must be stopped. we have to stop "tent of freedom poles" from getting to define what is stealing or cheating or ethical and what is human so all of these discussions stop being such nonsense and so hard to actually seal properly.

(although the premise of the series is closer to that all pagan religions are true and Christianity is maybe half true.) the great majority of people would much rather conceptualize "truth" as Lived Experience than what is materially possible, and the intersection of "truths" as the coexistence of people and Lived Experiences. unfortunately this actually makes getting people to coexist a lot harder because everybody's concept of getting the world to coexist contradicts with everybody else's and is unable to take into account the actual material processes of groups of people conflicting and contradicting in order to work out how to solve them, resulting in a horrible contradiction of official rules that people must get along on top of a horribly violent world where they would almost rather kill each other periodically. this anarchism or anarchology that everyone seems to believe by default would seem to create the exact problems that anarchism ends up having to claim it can solve and then ends up leaving unsolved. the garden of eden causes the fall.

A) these works were created in the United States. B) the homestuck teenagers being thrown into a new world to overcome a bunch of nasty enemies and danger and uncertainty almost in isolation is a loose metaphor for the process of finding a career in the midst of an environment where individuals and chunks of people are constantly fighting each other for the ability to be part of society rather than leave and connecting into little enclaves of allied competitors (corporations, Liberal-republican parties, etc) that fiercely try to keep all outsiders out. C) the genesis frog is a loose metaphor for each individual having to re-create all of reality around them through labor to break away from parents and toxic friends and political enemies and other corporations as other individuals constantly claim it — a task that not everybody succeeds at, hence null sessions. D) the trolls are a metaphor for what it's like to grow up embedded in United States culture before you gain the quest to be able to break out of the bottom layer and reach the top layer. you are alone psychologically, there are constant threats of being culled from a particular town for being Black or being disabled or being fireable, everyone is mean. Alternia is the ordinary world, earth given Sburb is the special world where heroes go. this might sound shocking to someone who lives in California but it's the strong parallels between trolls and Saiyans (and Gems) and the popularity of these recurring narratives about having to break out of a world of aliens where everyone is terrible that finally sealed it for me. E) Twilight Sparkle is the star student who finds it easy to get to the top layer or special world, and does not realize that a bottom layer of fierce competition exists. the show is presented from her perspective. F) Vegeta is the hero of Dragon Ball. the trolls are the heroes of Homestuck. the griffons are the heroes of MLP. it's only when the people who have every incentive to be mean and kill each other can be turned around to connect each other instead that there can be any heroes. G) the point of these "heroes" isn't that they're mean or reactionary or even that they're peasants or poor. the point of them is that they could split society, and turn on any particular establishment and fight it, but they must choose not to. that's why Trotsky is my favorite example of the person you need to cast as the hero. he's not actually malicious (despite the possibility many people in the conspiracy may have been). he is a very smart individual who was only alienated from the society around him and forced into the process of chunks of society competing against each other because he could not be integrated and turned around to recruit others.

Marxists say that embodied cognition can teach people to take control of matter and society-objects, but most of the time, it seems that embodied cognition actually leads people to thinking that any complicated thing they can't imagine there being a model for is somehow "inherently intuitive", only solvable by intuition and not by philosophy or by math. they will "intuitionize" The Subject, social behavior, populations, freedom, the supposed convergence of different populations into Rhizome, and even non-social objects like quantum fields as supposedly being comprehensible through the natural ability of human beings to fit into society or subpopulations through intuition. the social capacities of humans go out of control, and suddenly everyone thinks that because frequencies and stochastic happenings exist in the universe that the universe is a mind and you can be one with it. really, it's the other way around — the universe is a lot of inanimate objects, and so is society above the individual scale, most likely comprehensible through math just as quantum mechanics is. 
one thing that really opened me up to this problem was Last Dragon Chronicles and the way it managed to present these actually-preposterous concepts in a way that wasn't as annoying as reading some sketchy webpage and in a lot of detail. I really had to ask myself, how would I even feel about it if I lived in that world. I really don't know. I bet the way people would talk about Communist movements would be really weird. let's throw aside a little of the premise for a second and assume that all Communists that exist in Last Dragon Chronicles are sensible and simply want to know how the universe actually works. at some point they're going to find out the universe is inherently intuitive and it's all a bunch of soul and feelings. what are they going to do with that? the thought I have is maybe to focus on the concept in book 3 of each legend being predicted by somebody else who needed it to happen, because that is bizarrely similar to the concept of trying to understand history, even if here the books are working more from a concept of local history than national history. also, what's the endgame. if you understand history are you going to turn into an alien. what is the relationship between Ultraman Series and these books

to be perfectly clear: a zero point energy {{em|is}} something. it's a set of particles or a physical object with energy removed. if there is such a thing as a zero point for mass it has to mean that there is a way to remove mass. and in one sense there might be. an electron and a positron can meet and annihilate and produce gamma rays and mass can go away, though apparently without being totally destroyed. why would a whole field have a positive resting value?

this statement is false on its face because the Russian Empire was not even a stationary combination of heterogeneous elements, it was a destructive opposition of heterogeneous elements. spatial hierarchy: combination of leaders conflated with disunited heterogeneous elements. anhierarchy: jumbled assortment of heterogeneous elements. anarchy: united combination of heterogeneous elements.

I don't think this claim has a wholly sinister connotation that bans the concept of anarchism.

to not fall into this trap and genuinely create an individualism, you'd have to explain how individuals can guarantee their own survival in a world where all individuals are physically in competition to exist and at any moment 1,000 individuals can simply come together and expel any particular individual into having utterly nothing for the most arbitrary of reasons, constantly snapping at the individual that every inch of the world and every object is claimed and owned and how dare you tread on it if they try to run away and go anywhere else. I doubt that that can even be done. all industrial societies are ranked competitions to Belong and Society the best and not Individual or Human the worst, where the individuals that are ranked the highest at creating peace and superficial equality have the greatest chance to reproduce and sort everyone else into exactly the location, job, culture, and identity they are allowed.

I think sociality has really wrecked the ability of human beings to comprehend the concept of what an individual object even is. there are certain disadvantages to human intelligence and this is one of them. it's not just that humans find patterns everywhere and start seeing supernatural beings, it's also that humans can't intuitively comprehend the concept of people not being part of other people despite all the evidence to the contrary that it is physically possible for people to be socially isolated.

I wouldn't say it upset me. it's almost like I found it funny, but not exactly. I was just... thinking about it occasionally, with a weird regularity. I think deep down, I was struck by the deep contrast between how obvious it is to mainstream Marxist-Leninists that Trotskyites can be treasonous conspirators but how completely non-obvious it was to absolutely everyone else, to the extent of changing and shaping the metaphors that people used to describe the situation. in some sense, both had to be true. it had to be true that Trotskyites were snakes, and Trotskyites were not snakes, at the same time. I settled onto the concept that they can be snakes and not be evil, just awkward noodles that sometimes hide themselves in the ground and don't fit in and will bite you if you step on them but aren't necessarily out to get you. 
there's a joke to be had somewhere within the classic United States newspaper cartoon of the snake joining or dying, the motif that things like these hide a secret snake conspiracy, and the Ironblood scenario I had sketched out of Trotskyists being the ones to save the United States in a world where every country eventually invents Communism or Anarchism — "I suppose conspiracies aren't always bad" or something like that

I think there are many different kinds of anarchies but none of them are anywhere near as revolutionary as anarchists believe they are. I think they're just historical processes like any other, similar to Deng Xiaoping processes or Stalin processes or hypothetical Trotsky processes, only the key difference is anarchy processes are stationary instead of explosive reactions that bring change. I think there are going to be a bunch of different anarchies with a bunch of different names, like there could be Kropotkin processes, etc. and when the results roll in, what we will find is that there are at least three anarchies embedded in Liberal-republicanism and none of them are doing any good, they're all mostly just making people angry and making them want to go back to violence because friendship just isn't working out and is only bringing a lot of stress and toxicity.

note: the word anarchology has been used occasionally for specific yet meaningless anarchisms. this is not referring to any of those previous individual ideologies. that's why the word meta-anarchism will be preferred outside the book itself for instances of "red anarchology which is not blue or charcoal anarchology".

I do agree that anarchies are headless. but I think across everything I've seen so far the core definition of anarchy in anarchism and things pretending not to be anarchism is actually the stationary combination of heterogeneous elements, not the immediate absence of all hierarchies.

"southeast" is in reference to Trotsky appearing in Petrograd and having to make the "journey" to Moscow which would ultimately become the Bolshevik capital after having been the imperial capital. this is being taken as a metaphor for someone who knows little about the real answers Leninism is supposed to find and will have to go on a long "journey" before getting to where Lenin is, just like Buddhist folklore draws a certain distance between the novice and bodhisattva levels which is then compared to the biological or ecological distance between a monkey and a human being. we've got three layers to the analogy now: ecology, Buddhism, and Marxism.

the great problem with defeating capitalism is that capitalism is already a government before it has a State, in the sense that parishes were tax-collecting governments or counties are governments, and the specific kind of government it is is a really bizarre and oppressive anarchism. capitalism is an anarchism, right now, today. it's a government composed of tiny population-society territories and the tiny population-governments of each town or region are formed into an anarchy. it's hard to dismantle the business territories even in the sense of separating them from their owners partly because people really really love anarchies on a visceral level and have a natural revulsion to dismantling any anarchy.

in context of the original poem Yeats speaks of some kind of idea of Zeitgeist and the signs of a society gradually exploding and tearing into nothing, followed by the Christian book of Revelation. the big idea is apathy — the inability of anyone to go on or anything to repair. 
in the context of meta-Marxism, the implication of appropriating this line is that the opposition of "apathy versus passionate intensity" doesn't come from "things falling apart", and instead comes from the system operating as designed. modern societies are anarchies from the beginning, stationary combinations of heterogeneous elements ruled by people deemed superior enough to be kind and wise peacemakers between the chunks. Aang is an inherently bourgeois idea. this false belief that "education", "community" and "niceness" inherently stop chunks from wanting to kill each other comes back to bite people as the inherent structure of the anarchy to begin with is the thing that tears it apart. a mere anarchy is loosed upon the world (anhierarchy) because a mere anarchy was loosed upon the world (anarchy). that's how structures work. if sodium chloride tears apart it's made of sodium and chloride ions. the same is true for chunks of people, which inherently expand and hurt each other unless on a deep internal level of social connection structure they aren't designed that way.

the one thing about this that does not confuse me is that I think Marx's concept that humanity can understand and control its own development continues to make perfect sense. [https://vidak.substack.com/p/marx-naturalism-anachronism-and-the] you need a new and very different Marxism to put two separate populations together, but it isn't inconceivable when you think about situations where two Marxisms did attempt to form in the same country and thus were already side by side in a sense. Marx says that everything humans do has a certain significance of being an arrangement of social links, even the exchange of food recipes. the conclusion is that in one sense all problems including a population dividing in two come down to the ability to control the overall shape of a collection of social graphs.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" data-tradition="HAS" value="618" data-dimension="S">Toby Fox doing Chinese prose wrong -> {{TTS|tts=chinese-rap.mp3|chineserap.mp3}} is such a case study for whether the daily use of language can truly be understood descriptively or whether it's also necessary to create a descriptive model of prescriptivism itself to ever stop it. there's always a kind of background competition to create the correct usages everyone will use, which in a sense you have to be on top of, or everyone including nice people will simply say you're bad at the language. 
this has huge implications for a lot of things including the arts. there's no such thing as art which is pure individual expression independent of other art that exists. there's always a background competition to know exactly what a genre of competing people is "the best, more than other people do" to then be able to participate in it and create something new which both fits into it and impresses people, which gets harder and harder every decade as more things are made and nobody thinks about how many things each generation effectively has to know about. if you trained an AI not on current art but on the premises of all books starting way back in 1800 or so versus what's current, it's actually in question whether biological humans have a long enough memory and attention span to do that task well. this isn't to say AIs are good but it is to say that we dramatically underestimate the role of interactions between individuals in determining what art is versus the role of the individual artist, expression, or "lived experience". the actual emergence of successful art likely looks more like small-scale determinism than some kind of triumph of individual will. think of it this way: can just anyone create a new Chinese word, or do you have to be highly versed in all the nuances and situations of speaking Chinese?

[https://www.britannica.com/topic/Maori-language] -> no matter how descriptivist you are, there has to be a working set of rules about what is and isn't speaking Chinese, where if you don't follow them, inclusion is not possible. 
the difficulty of determining the difference between "beginner understandings" and "prejudice" is one of the biggest snags for trying to apply either Existentialism or anarchism. the fact that culture always does have a definition even as it shifts and evolves makes it really difficult to actually create coexistence and tolerance between countable cultures when they will so frequently act offended just because somebody isn't performing their specific rules well and is instead performing a different set of rules well. this shows us that culture is never truly about the content, and is always about the degree of connection between the individual and a particular countable culture — a person at a low rank of fitting-in in one countable culture can easily be at a high rank of fitting-in in another one, thus the sort of "discipline process" of learning to do a culture right and not wrong belongs wholly to one countable culture assigning belonging-ranks to its own individuals, not to the world or to humanity. assuming that prejudice leads to exclusion is therefore a faulty assumption, because prejudice would be cultural content of one culture (example: Southern Baptist Christians excluding gay people), but it isn't the content that actually binds people together, it's their ability to fit together around the same rules into a shared culture-object as individuals. it isn't the fact that people write in Chinese characters that makes them not understand Spanish and say it doesn't look much like Chinese, it's the fact that different people have greater or lesser connection to the connected body of Chinese speakers, which passes around evolving definitions of what is spoken or written Chinese. 
I already feel this concept going a lot more places. just you wait until I come back a little while from now with a killer theory of how the Chinese language is somehow a perfect metaphor for the difference between mainstream Marxism-Leninism and Trotskyism. this concept of all molecular-scale structure being [[Term:Filamentism|Filamentist]] hierarchy until it's Marxism has a really wide scope at the end of the day

this is an easy fallacy to get into when there have been protests because [[E:protest brain|people will think the protests actually cause people to like each other]] and it isn't necessarily true. what changes people and causes them to start solving for themselves more productively is individually being put into a position of having to defend themself from the majority or the most powerful small rings of people, regardless of if anyone else is there with them. the big thing that matters is [[E:Trotsky is your new hero|whether people choose to stay in that disadvantaged position just because it's right]] even if a lot of people there hate them and want to send them back to the reactionary side. you can't make groups of people be nice to each other or be friends, no matter how serious and well-read a schizoanalyst theorist you are. people are going to behave unpredictably to each other and you need to keep them together even as some of them treat each other with utter cruelty and don't behave like friends or comrades at all. it's at that point that either people develop true integrity, sticking to a faction even if everyone on it is terrible purely because they study science and mathematics and look beyond all the confused people around them saying slightly wrong things to seek what's true, or the whole thing crumbles. empathy really doesn't cut it any more in an age where everyone is inherently competing on everything ever including communicating on newsfeeds or getting into subreddits or promoting inclusive minority businesses for just one minority and nobody is friends. community is nothing, materialism is key.

(whether this is true is... complicated. there are some times that would seem true and some times where it would seem really misleading.) the reference video actually gives a material reason in that wealth versus austerity causes the reversion. however, it seems ridiculously easy to argue this same thing without bringing up that legitimate model, and simply go arguing that Bolshevism is one big distraction while Un-Progressive Hierarchies need to be fought on a separate level regardless of whether it is amenable to Bolshevism or squashes Bolshevism. the video used Freud trying to argue the first reason while not realizing Freudian and Jungian models (although Lacanian models less so) are absolutely ripe for arguing the second reason. 
one of the major errors in this video is assuming that Soviet people can control what other countries outside them are doing. they can't. that's di- intelligent design, that's the Shenlong effect. reality experiences the Vegeta effect. when you're standing in the United States, you can't actually say "I'll fix the Soviet Union by changing the United States' Free Will toward Communism", because if you're on the Communist side you don't have access to the non-Communist side's will. to think the two sides will fire off at once without a hitch is basically Trotskyism, or nearly equivalent to it. Trotskyism is traditionally defined as multiple separate countries suddenly synchronizing, but when you define it specifically by its errors versus reality, you see that that error could apply to parts of the same fracturing country as easily as it does to two bigger separate countries. so that's the crux of this. you have to either be in the totally non-Communist movement to change the United States or in the Soviet Union, you can't be in both countries at once.

I laughed at it but at the same time the idea stuck in my mind and kept turning over many times in different permutations to where it had become less like I had anything against the article and more felt like it was a gift in its own way. I got weirdly obsessed with the comparison between Trotsky and religion, how his history messed with every scenario I could imagine of him going to the afterlife and how Trotskyism was or wasn't a similar historical process to Christianity. was he actually a good figure to have on anybody's side as a particular faction? what would it be like if ghosts existed and he haunted the earth?

I think part of the problem is that people very quickly vulgarize "the conditions in another country" into "lived experience" because without already having a historical materialist framework they can't even comprehend what large countable cultures containing causes and effects would look like. 
my thoughts on this: I think people might learn best through the visual language of fantasy books. it's a little more common than not for people to look at a fantasy book and say it's perfectly okay for a particular historical process to happen as it does even if there's collateral damage, while equivocating and complicating the need to overcome a particular conflict is stupid. at the moment people talk about "villains" they kind of almost understand history. 
the only real problem is when people think they understand a historical process and jump up on their high horse as if they were analyzing it through dialectical materialism when they actually aren't, and they've mentally swapped dialectical materialism and filtration. they've created filtration but they've created non-Marxist filtration that isn't amenable to Marxism, and then they take the high ground like, you gotta get on board the historical process, but they've got Lacanianism at best, they don't have Marxism.

Serbs aren't constantly trying to be the only people who can occupy Croatia, because countries are comically big to be doing that — except when it's Palestine.

what's stunning to me is that an event horizon is enough to get Hawking radiation. you'd think from a naïve but grounded understanding of physics that the black hole stuff between the horizon and singularity has to be leading to all the weird properties, hidden variables or not. it's crazy we can see so many things about the event horizon and that black holes aren't more mysterious than they are. why is so much seemingly happening so close to the surface? ordinary stars don't work that way, they have a corona and a center. so why is the black hole so nearly an actual hollow shell. that is so strange

Christians are afraid of crime and rival kingdoms all mysteriously moving around outside, they form into a church. Muslims are afraid of kingdoms conquering each other, they form into a caliphate. capitalism promises "freedom", it practically creates the need for workers to cluster into large corporations so survival will be more predictable and for somebody to be at the head of that corporation predicting everything on the outside so those people can get a paycheck. a Deng Xiaoping state forms when countries have a greater need to be vigilant against war and not make stupid mistakes in their survival than the need to let individuals fight with each other and pursue totally experimental ideas and structures. it follows that when uncertainty goes away, there is a greater potential to republicanize any particular workplace, taking away particular points of authority and handing authority only to "standard procedure".

the thing that bothers me is what people propose the process to actually be. if you define this in a way that supports historical materialism I wouldn't really be able to complain. what bothers me is when people try to define the historical process of colonialism in a way which is distinctly historical non-materialism or historical existentialism. 
if I can be brutally honest for a moment? it reeks of First World privilege for people to think that a bunch of people just standing around and willing something can get people whatever they want. if you have access to lots and lots of money that peasants would clamor over each other to have, or your gigantic continental government has access to all that money supposedly, of course you can have whatever you want. of course it will seem like anyone who does anything but beg owners of giant local-state-sized swaths of industry to pay money to support anything else when paying it would take away their ability to make more ability to help "clearly" doesn't understand history and "clearly" isn't doing anything productive. clearly, history gets less violent as all the power funnels into the United States and all the other countries lose their governments and everyone can just vote on things but they have to be White. and everybody else is stupid. everyone who's a peasant and hasn't created capitalism only has to work harder to be able to vote in about 50 years. but the cherry on top is that if the whole world knits together into Liberal-republicanism it will spend its time dividing in two and generating blood feuds just so it's supposedly "fair" and isn't "totalitarian". (sic.) all of it makes sense in its own twisted way except that. the one thing I genuinely don't get is how a system that generates blood feuds and periodic shootings is inherently fair.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Liberal-republicanism regulates endocolonialism / There is an endocolonialism process which operates based on different coherent subpopulations nominating experts to advise them and make their laws but then in order to achieve any unity between subpopulations whatsoever, having to fight over which political subpopulation acts as the ruling ethnic group of the empire holding empire over the other politically-defined ethnic groups, and Liberal-republicanism regulates this to keep it from turning into a permanent physical Britain-versus-India style colonialism -> if this is true, then Third World countries are predisposed to Marxism because they don't have the process of endocolonialism that First World countries have, at least not the one that leads to the creation of Liberal-republicanism. 
point in favor of this: historically, empire is the simplest way to join populations. empire joined the fracturing populations of Germany, England, China, Japan, old Korea, India, the list goes on and on. so if Liberal-republicanism is absurdly simple, too simple to possibly work, that it would devolve into humanity's simplest method of joining large populations is not surprising. none of these were colonialism yet. that only started to develop when two populations could smash into each other, like European empires and North American tribes. but what if two majority-ethnicity populations were smashing into each other and trying to expand over each other and siphon away each other's land inside a kingdom? well, then that could potentially be colonialism.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Liberal-republicanism cannot be decolonized / Endocolonialism cannot be removed from Liberal-republicanism as long as the latter exists -> note the "endo-". this doesn't mean reparations can't exist. reparations are in response to a past exocolonialism. endocolonialism refers to colonialism basically being identifiable inside a group solely consisting of White people, for instance, a group that's all-British, or all-Dutch, though probably not all-Irish. a group that's all-Japanese, or all-Italian, and has not yet smashed into any particular foreign country it is trying to brutalize but already contains colonialism inside it anyway. that's endocolonialism. from a Materialist point of view it's tempting to say it doesn't exist in order to say it's referring to something else that does exist. but in the end, that's meta-ontologically dishonest. if people are getting stirred up about "colonialism" they won't shut up until you tell them how to stop "colonialism". so it's more meta-ontologically sound to tell them they're talking about "endocolonialism" and that nobody actually knows what that is. also that, really, it's utterly necessary to create a historical materialism of some kind to explain endocolonialism. to explain how something entirely inside a group of White people leads to exocolonialism you very much need a theory of material cause and effect which actually shows how small scales lead up to larger scales and how surrounding patterns can change smaller scales to produce different large-scale events. "ideas, attitudes" won't cut it; you really have to know and predict what each idea produces in reality to know whether any idea will be useful.

I'm surprised that half of all dystopia books aren't already written this way, considering the way every educated person reports on life in their own country. is it that dystopia is softly assumed to only happen elsewhere, even when it supposedly takes place in the author's country? is it that an instance of the United States which has fallen is considered a foreign country?

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Communist parties, hierarchical, are bad / Communist parties are bad because they are hierarchical -> this is contradictory because one typical point of evidence is that people can be expelled from Communist parties, but anarchisms also use expulsion in much the same way and claim it's not hierarchy any more just because it's theirs, just because anarchism is a connected whole and that supposedly can't be a hierarchy. expulsion has to either be hierarchy or not. and I think there's a better case it isn't. only in cases of imperialism where a few White people want to extend their population over the world and rule it does expulsion become a serious thing where not being in a particular country is bad. ordinary people really don't know the difference between non-colonial and colonial and almost get the two backwards so that colonial is freedom and non-colonial is empire.

Christianity has always said it's not about prejudice because anyone can become Christian and if they would just become Christian and simultaneously abandon all other religion and magic ritual the world could be united. Trotskyism makes essentially the same error, coercing anarchists and mainstream Marxists-Leninists into Trotskyism just because of the vacuous truth that if everyone was Trotskyist everyone would be Trotskyist. does most Liberal-republicanism or anarchism have a grounding which is any better than this? is any of it prepared for the possibility that somebody genuinely does not want to be part of a particular group of people, and all the "community" and "anti-prejudice" you can manage wouldn't be enough to fix that? "dem"-"ocracy" is just fine if people are part of the Demos in the first place, but what if they aren't? what do you do when there are multiple separate Demotes that distinctly don't want to be controlled by each other as a matter of national autonomy and self-determination?

I think one possible starting point is the proposition that art must represent its audience rather than its author. that way you rule out art getting to be racist just because a bunch of White people had unique experiences and are such good artists that are so good at being unique individuals that we don't need Media Representation — people absolutely will say this if you let them. all the spontaneity and biographical detail and seconds and minutes of irreplaceable Lived Experience you can muster means nothing if it doesn't represent the audience rather than the author.

I do think artistic abstraction exists. also... it looks like this book is largely an attempt to justify fiction as memoir. I think that's dangerous when it comes to the role of fiction as "education". if a country contains 90% one ethnic group and 10% another one, you want about the top 80% of people making art that's almost totally abstracted from real life, or art simply becomes softly racist as everybody gets flooded with the experiences of one particular ethnic group. it's really much better to have White people focusing all their energy into things like {{book|Harry Potter}} and {{book|Warriors}} so there's space for minorities to write all the more biographical stories that actually manage to teach people about experiences they haven't had.

"the first" Trotskyism was mostly composed of anticommunists but anyone can take it and fill it with workers (assuming they have unreal levels of skill, of course), so it's harder to categorically say that Trotskyism itself is anticommunist even despite all the times it's wrong. similarly Western-Marxism can be wrong a whole lot of the time but not necessarily always malicious.

I quite literally heard about Engels' work as good from mainstream Marxist-Leninists and Trotskyist pages, as a non-Communist, before I ever heard this one. I think that really goes to show what an utter bubble disconnected from ordinary people "the New Left" actually lives in. like, my whole life I've been a socially isolated nerd, but somehow I've never been as isolated in a remote ivory tower as The New Left, to the point I heard "correct" Marxism before I ever really heard of them. Richard Wolff is the only exception where I had any contact at all with anticommunist Western-Marxists and their theory. and as far as I can remember he never managed to confuse me and make me think that what he was doing was remotely the same thing as Bolshevism. I think it was always relatively intuitive to me that "Marxism" and "Western Marxism" were potentially different things. so it is particularly puzzling to me that anybody could think that early Western-Marxism is the one true Marxism. if you have the slightest bit of intuition for [[E:duplexing|duplexing]] or meta-Marxism you'd at least realize that there isn't one true Marxism in that specific sense, and realize that instead there are always plural Marxisms. what stops us from this? is it imperialism? is it the tendency to think that because White culture is the only culture that ever existed and Marxism seeks to find the one correct model of the world, this means Western-Marxism must be the only Marxism? 
the one thing that always makes Western Marxism so complicated for me is it's the favorite Marxism for minorities to appropriate to claim that Marxism is the best theory for, and solely designed for, ridding the United States of racism. you have one faction of people which is appropriating Gramsci and Marcuse to claim that Marxism is a theory of anti-racism, and then you have one faction of people who is using the same theorists to claim almost literally that Russians are inherently bad and Bolshevism could never succeed because of bad Russian culture that isn't White culture — you see, even if Russians look White they can't possibly be White because they don't have Democracy. which is a cultural idea, not a practiced material structure that could exist within Bolshevism. they oppressed a single individual with the correct ideas instead of including him through tent of freedom poles and that means that Russians are a savage race that must be fought by real White people until they physically include White individuals with good ideas in their society. this is not neocolonialism, it's just Democracy.

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wp2vy7X7cpE] it's so weird and ironic that he uses China as his example because China is not really a very intuition-based country any more since about 1940. you could attribute that to central governments doing whatever they have to to encourage modernizing to compete with other countries, any number of "kingdoms" will do this. but what if you didn't. is natural law really a sensible way of looking at things when you could draw 100 Chinese people at random and there's a nonzero chance you'd only get people that say according to their intuition Communism makes the most sense? is that to say that people transitioning to a highly logical way of thinking is what's truly obvious? 
there was this one line in {{book|1984}}. "there were no laws, but there were crimes". you know, you know full well that if anybody in China today read justice according to intuition like those ancient imperial judges this is exactly what people in other countries would be thinking, and they might just clamor to force the government to read justice by exactly what's written simply so that spooky scary Communism doesn't behave unpredictably. if China were to not have a constitution people would be terrified, even though reading justice according to intuition is almost exactly why that would be the case. 
human beings want their own country to be as anarchic as possible but they want other countries to be perfectly and utterly regimented like robots so they aren't left guessing what other people will do. this seems to come down to a poor ability to take situations and [[E:duplexing|duplex]] them in order to understand what two people or structures doing the same thing will produce without one structure seeking to control the other and produce a single structure.

I feel like all the propositions about queer identity which are distinctly neutral are a bit insulted by always being shown in blue or sometimes in charcoal when I've also started casting that very negatively. I don't think the association with Existentialism or anarchism means it's bad to be LGBT+ or to create things that primarily revolve around that — it's not bad to create a gay nightclub or a lesbian romance book or a circle of {{book|Deltarune}} fans just because those things "aren't Marxist" or whatever. this can get a little confusing because while it's pretty obvious to say it's not against Marxism to be Chinese or North Korean, LGBT+ identity has always been very political and has always been this weird sort of tiny national identity inherently created through the practice of anarchism, as if just like you need to read a Liberal-republican civics book to successfully be United-States you have to read an anarchist civics book to successfully be LGBT+. I think a philosophical tradition code is appropriate to reconcile this weird blend of identity and culture which is fine and intertwined politics.

note: I think this one is neat. it's one of those things that's broadly right even if it's right for slightly incorrect reasons. the action of populations against each other sorts individuals into genders, racial groupings, and so forth; under the model of structuralist linguistics you see the words man and woman or masculine and feminine shift in relation to each other as the populations shift. so...

Lacanian discipline doesn't sound so good now, does it? now let's say we take Stalin's Marxism and duplex it. two different countries unite the proletariat and form Marxist parties and become workers' states. however, if the two countries have totally different ideas of what is in favor of the proletariat in any particular country, each country's party will become incapable of contributing to freeing the world proletariat.

I think it was one of the basic theorists like Marx, Engels, or Lenin but I do not remember. 
here are my thoughts on this: abstract concepts don't have to exist in nature to be useful. but freedom is in entirely another category from something like, say, irrational numbers or [[E:Is topology a threat to Marxism?|topological spaces]]. you can learn tons and tons of math and it could be all of it is only useful to creating a workers' state and bringing people together and none of it is harmful. but if you have the wrong model of freedom it could lead you to destroy society, divide populations from each other, or even start a war. I'm not confident there is no model of freedom which is safe. all I know on that is that everyone in the United States always uses the bad ones, even anarchists use bad ones, and I am really tired of those.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">If free will doesn't exist, what did Trotsky exercise? -> in the United States and sometimes in Britain, Trotsky is the prototypical example of why "freedom", "dialogue" or "debate", and "pluralism" are supposedly important, and why supposedly "letting factions turn into a totalitarian state" is bad. I think it's no exaggeration to say he has fully been integrated and appropriated into Liberal-republicanism right next to Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and John Stuart Mill. this makes about as much sense as Christians reading off versions of Jewish scripture copied in by Jewish Christians and appropriated by the Roman Empire — maybe it did at one point in history, but it makes no sense today. the crux of that entire appropriation process lies in the concept of Freedom. Trotsky can be appropriated by right-Liberalism because he supposedly demonstrates what it means to be free, and to exert one's will to become free. and what do we call that? it would seem to be one of the most clear-cut demonstrations of whether "free will" does or doesn't exist. if you do believe Free Will exists, you'll say Trotsky turned away from the Soviet Union because he has Free Will, partly defined as the physical and psychological autonomy from the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. if you don't believe Free Will exists, you'll have a much longer and surely much more interesting account of exactly why Trotsky didn't turn around and reintegrate himself with the only country and political faction that had ever suited him. 
I remember some Marxist text saying "freedom can be important even if it doesn't exist in nature". and ever since then I've been doubting that claim, going, okay, but if we assume nature doesn't refer to wolf packs and it refers to things like geological processes, chemical reactions, Newtonian mechanics, and general relativity, isn't it important to know what freedom really is or fails to be as it fails to exist within the whole universe? if we don't answer that question it's super easy to turn freedom around against the world proletariat and use it as a weapon to lead everyone into "[[E:undialectical idealism, historical non-materialism, and class non-analysis|undialectical idealism]]". this is how the Cold War, or the first phase of the forever cold war, was won. the major tactic has been to take these very particular constructs like "freedom" and "community", which are each described with models that are probably wrong, and unite all the bourgeoisie around them and then unite everyone else to the bourgeoisie around Freedom and Community specifically because they want Freedom and Community. the French Revolution didn't just happen once, it's a nasty process that regenerates itself over and over far beyond the point it's harmful.

[https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/1468-5922.12356] my issue with this isn't really that you're not allowed to call any and all material parts of a country "culture"; you look at something like the Workers' Party of Korea and they'll be saying "culture" but they actually mean the structure and activities of the population, where the whole population with all its moving parts is a countable culture. instead, I think my issue is that you can't just take parts of an individual and say that's culture because an individual isn't really a countable culture — not truly. things an individual is wholly imagining, like if you have Susie Deltarune standing in the supply closet perceiving a card soldier that is entirely in her mind versus in her hand or in the closet, are culture. but Susie being a Monster or being a girl are not culture. I'd add that this is because I think transgender identity is partly material, but I don't even think that matters at all for this discussion, I think the Susie example nails it pretty well. you have to have this minimum amount of choice (insert Deltarune joke here) in what you are or what identity group you are standing in for something to be culture. you take Trotsky and him identifying as a Trotskyist might fairly be called culture because he chose to be there. but having a gender identity is mostly not chosen, it's only the last bit of uncertainty in what group of people they want to hang around that people have to choose to collapse.

let's make it really simple: a group of cats that doesn't understand the benefits of getting along with other cats forms into ShadowClan. it's not like the first arc of {{book|Warriors}}, and the ShadowClan cats help each other out in order to survive. then they casually treat the other clans in awful ways and try to take over their territories. are "society", "community", and so-called "[[E:a crumb of socialism|social-ism]]" inherently good things, or are they instead potentially bad things that [[E:the community delusion|blind everyone]] to [[:Category:Historical materialism ontology (general-sense)|the real way]] pluralities of societies function against each other?

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">State education is Lacanian discipline -> this is basically assumed in any non-Marxist theory that thinks having classes about the history of racism will fix everyone's problems. the first question anyone should ask when somebody doesn't believe in historical materialism and calls it "predicting history" is: okay, if history classes aren't about predicting what general things could happen in the future then what is the purpose of teaching history classes? out in the real world, it might take you a while to genuinely get a straight answer. but I feel like what is waiting at the bottom of that conversation is this. people think of all behavior in terms of bad things your father or your sister or your classmates or your teacher [[E:no of The Father|told you not to do]]. accordingly they think all behaviors identified as good or bad can be taught this way, in a kind of rote memorization of what's good and bad. of course, there are deep flaws in this. what if people think speaking Spanish is a bad behavior, or "looking gay"? there is no real distinction between behaviors that are prohibited because they are actually bad and behaviors that are prohibited purely to make people obey some arbitrary cultural standard that everyone was arbitrarily taught, and if somebody is even once scolded for a behavior that isn't actually harmful that person will get deeply upset and start to drift out of society and turn against every group of people that scolded them improperly. and unfortunately, reactionaries are always the people most able to productively apply this finding. every single time you scold a single Tory-leaning White person for something which is ultimately neutral you'll get hundreds of thousands of Tories standing up to you on what you "did" to the Tory subpopulation. 
I have always leaned toward the idea that a lot of Tories would be much better at learning historical materialism than they would be at learning "diversity and inclusion" or "anti-racism". if you teach people about whole countries and to portray whole countries correctly as a material process, or to think about subpopulations inside their own country similarly, they'll eventually understand how to give realistic portrayals of people from other populations. if you just pound them over the head with "bad bad bad" for every single tiny mistake they will have a hard time learning the correct picture that's far far bigger and more complex than any of the individual scoldings. it's like seeing somebody not understand general relativity and scolding them for not being able to give an entire presentation about how the scale of photons leads up to time and why single-variable equations may be bad for modeling the universe "because everybody should know that". especially when there is such a contradiction between nice words like "sensitivity" and "inclusion" and the crude, almost barbaric methods of enforcing them that are not at all based in Lived Experience or empathy and as far as I can tell can't teach them.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="F2">Historical periods are like decades / Historical periods are collections of arbitrary events in sequence with no particular underlying logic unifying them together -> I think this is actually provably false, because it genuinely does not explain things like why multiple countries would have "three kingdoms periods" instead of two kingdoms periods or five kingdoms periods or any other number or not divide at all. everyone knows the Han dynasty is a historical period; nobody would argue with you about that. but if the Han dynasty was just a cluster of decades then why did it break into exactly three warring states at the time it did? 
I swear that a Let's Play of {{book|Dynasty Warriors}} or {{book|Nobunaga's Ambition}} disproves Rothenberg's book. the argument really is that bad. really, I feel like if you read enough books within {{book|Warriors}} it shows that this model is wrong, because everyone writing even a fake history book knows that historical periods are not just collections of arbitrary events and instead they contain causality inside them.

of course, if you look at things this way you can immediately see that the historical record in the geological strata is explained by material processes, namely evolutionary processes. it's almost harder to deny general-sense historical materialism than it is to accept it.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Every nation is an ethnic group / An ethnic group is an arrangement of one or more countable groups of people each graphed together around shared social relationships and culture, and every consistent group of people which stays together for a long time will become some kind of ethnic group -> this is one of my single biggest problems with anarchism. anarchism finds the concept of ethnic groups yucky, and in order to try to get rid of racism keeps trying to act like it's totally artificial. but most anarchist theory which isn't totally unconvincing is based on tribal societies. and what are tribal societies if not ethnic groups? Black versus White might not be a necessary ethnic grouping, but when you form people into a tribe of anarchists or the Democrat nation that is going to become an ethnic group. Marxists are not afraid of the fact that a revolution or re-forming of a society creates an ethnic group. they just say, here is the Ukrainian SSR and here is the Lithuanian SSR and they are not enemies, and call it a day. anarchists seem to find this almost some kind of inconceivable injustice. it's like they think that all individuals on earth naturally want to form together into bigger populations but they don't want to acknowledge that there is anything that binds particular people together against outside threat or against having to be in a group they don't want to be in, when there totally is. everybody could just not be racist and people would still want to form into specific groups for particular reasons, not to just form together with any group of people at random. this is the basic origin of ethnic groups. that people are fundamentally plural based on having stronger links to some people than other people that divide them into separate graphs. this plurality doesn't prevent forming ethnic groups into larger ethnic groups or forming very large ethnic groups like a huge area of Russians, but you have to acknowledge that it's there. every successful group of people that becomes a country for any significant period of time is basically an ethnic group going by the simplest and most inclusive, non-judgemental definition of what an ethnic group is. for any group of people to have freedom or independence there has to be an ethnic group, and it's the graph connections inside the ethnic group that create a country, not the definition of an area of land or some long line called the national border. 
it follows from this claim that smaller groups of people which do not easily form into a larger ethnic group organically will not do well at forming a country, or a "democracy". only correct arrangement of cultures into cultures into cultures actually promotes a healthy ethnic group which in turn promotes a healthy republic.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The proletariat has three scales / There are three scales of the proletariat / There are three scales at which the proletariat is divided: the corporate scale, the scale of countable cultures, and the republican scale 
this statement is false if there is a distinct fourth or fifth scale which is fully separate from either of these. for instance, I find religion hard to separate from countable cultures, I think those are the same thing, and I find political factions hard to separate from countable cultures. countable cultures can overlap or contain each other but that alone doesn't mean there is another countable scale. the republican scale is an entire nation-state such as "the United States" or "China". during events like the Trotskyite conspiracy the national scale will be challenged but a full nation-state is not created yet, so it's the countable culture scale.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The proletariat is identical with {{TTS|html=abbr|cultures|cultures|title=countable culture-populations}} / The proletariat is identical with countable cultures (cultures, countable culture-populations; meta-Marxism) -> the claim that Marxists have been interpreting what the proletariat is slightly incorrectly, because while many people assume the proletariat merely emerges inside existing populations, the reality hypothesized here is that the proletariat is populations. the proletariat is the state of the people of a population being graphed together into a population, with the plurality and physical gaps between populations being part of the definition of what the proletariat is — or to be more precise, what proletariats are. Liberal-republicans get horrified by Bolshevism because they think that when all the people in a country are graphed together things are going backward, but they don't realize that if you remove the bourgeoisie, people graphed into Lithuania and graphed into Estonia and graphed into Russia is exactly the kind of structure that remains, the 14 separate republics each graphed together into a single population and government are a large part of what the proletariat is; the only thing missing from that definition is the potential for any particular proletariat to split into smaller proletariats at any time for a complicated variety of reasons. 
there is a particular reason people haven't discovered this. people want to think of the proletariat as a simple collection of millions of tiny objects called proletarians, when they don't realize that what they're really looking for is the whole group of proletarians being one big object yet one object which does not cover the world. Lenin got this correct, by mobilizing the proletariat with people of different classes and movements to all form a nation-wide movement. this is one example of correctly understanding the proletariat as the overall population of Georgia, etc., when it is in its purest form. what causes huge problems is when individual countries [[E:multicapitalism|break into multiple proletariats]]. practically speaking, they will behave like they are different countries even though there is no mechanism for them to operate as different countries and even if they are horribly scattered so one "country" is mixed into every fifty people of another "country". 
anarchists have this very wrong idea that culture-populations are natural (so far so good) but also that culture-populations naturally want to merge together and coexist, and a lack of Freedom is the only thing preventing this. this is wrong. there can be two Iroquois tribes with all the freedom in the world and one day people in one tribe can just start killing people in the other. the tribes don't actually coexist until they solidly form a combined structure capable of regulating them which they are obligated to be part of and can't secede from. the moment two countable cultures don't effectively reciprocally own each other and they gain freedom they have the capacity to kill. you absolutely can't conceptualize colonialism and "bad governments" as a matter of freedom, it just doesn't work that way. the worst thing is that at the republican scale it's sometimes hard to even force populations to reciprocally own each other. sometimes populations are simply big enough and self-sufficient enough they'll tear away from you and out of the reciprocal ownership. so, the ideal scenario is that Ukraine agrees to reciprocal ownership with the Soviet Union, but if Ukraine tears out of its own will to support some reactionary group of people, then people have not naturally merged together and anarchism is false. it doesn't mean anarchism is true. it means something more like that anarchism is false but fascism is true. a group of human beings joined around culture and [[E:poetry (flair)|poetry]] and hope hard enough simply cannot be controlled and will fight you to the death, and at least win its own life if it has strong enough structures and tight enough internal links. this is people's genuine free will, not a corruption of it. so inasmuch as free will exists at all the only good answer is that free will is bad. freedom is one big nothing burger that goes many roads but ends up nowhere, and free will is bad because it is anti-science and anti-reality. free will is Susie sitting in the middle of her decrepit room hallucinating Image_Friend.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Homelessness is not a proletarian issue / Homelessness is fundamentally an issue created and faced by the bourgeoisie which is only handed down to the proletariat -> this is going to deeply confuse and maybe upset some people, until they understand the rather complicated model I'm trying to describe and begin calmly evaluating the whole model as accurate or inaccurate. so, here goes. homelessness results from a low availability of houses. a low availability of houses results directly from people not having the income to pay for houses. you can blame landlords, but you don't have control over their minds or how they behave; the baseline state is that nobody has any power to stop landlords. in the age of capitalism, people can accumulate power over landlords when they have the power to produce an income, and otherwise they lose power quickly. whether people have the power to produce an income largely depends on bad decisions by the bourgeoisie. the bourgeoisie are always making various bad decisions like abolishing corporate departments and laying off hundreds of people, chopping up big businesses into small businesses, opening teeny tiny businesses that will die in a year, making their corporation entirely about a particular circle of White people that won't let in Black people and acting still like whatever a corporation does or does not do is a matter of Freedom, requiring unrealistic amounts of experience for an entry level job, hiring only overqualified people and softly extinguishing the proletariat rather than figuring out how to put everyone to work, and so on, and so forth, not to mention the people who end up pushed out of capitalism by all these bad decisions and are forced to create new tiny businesses and become owners just because the existing corporations wouldn't let them in — these people are a little less bad but they can make plenty of harmful mistakes too. capitalism is so broken now that the whole thing has been slowly dissolving into just the bourgeoisie versus the bourgeoisie. one side of it is the bourgeoisie who make terrible decisions and refuse to analyze and direct populational development with science. one side of it is the bourgeoisie who have been manufactured by these terrible decisions and have little chance of ever becoming workers again unless we fix the overall science and bad decisions crisis. the blue bourgeoisie, and the strawberry bourgeoisie. it isn't really about actual class divisions now. it's about uniting all the strawberry-tinted people and keeping them as tightly connected as possible just so they can survive and stand up to the people who keep them all from surviving, just so the strawberry-tinted people won't watch their teeny businesses crumble or so they can get apartments, just so people can ever have the faintest hope of having a reform movement or a "democratic" anything. homelessness is not a proletarian issue any more, it's just strawberry. it's just strawberry and crimson against blue and brown.

I feel like in a better world we'd teach every single "progressive" degree and several others about Gödel's incompleteness theorem, maybe you'd even learn it in high school. we'd teach high school students that only observations can actually lead to knowledge, not logic or reasoning. funny enough I think that might knock more people out of religion than something like teaching evolution, just because people would actually realize that things they see when all alone probably aren't real.

Deng Xiaoping Thought could very literally be a member of the Western-Marxist tradition just because China is now a First World country and is still more or less practicing it. 
this is where the model of abandoning "The West versus The East" in favor of "First World countries versus Third World countries" really has an advantage. you don't need to say "Japan is a Western nation" or "China has Westernized" where the axis of capitalist alliances between First World countries is the actual thing uniting them against countries that suffer imperialism rather than "culture".

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="F2">The proletariat and bourgeoisie are diametrically opposed -> strictly speaking, this is not always true. for instance, there can be times where both the proletariat and the bourgeoisie have an interest in creating a functioning business structure and making sure it doesn't collapse and leave all the workers unemployed. this is especially true for Director types that are earning significant salaries for actually designing things about the business territory or the individual project to the point of indirectly putting workers into roles or firing workers. let's look at MrEnter trying to create a TV show: he has elaborate plans for practically everything in the TV show, and he only needs to put people into place storyboarding and animating things he has already designed. in terms of having created the project and being the one who will take it to market he should be the capitalist. but he makes a lot of decisions to the point his decisions can affect whether the show succeeds or fails and whether he practically has the money to pay his workers or a simple debt to them. there is a significant problem today, especially as big businesses spontaneously collapse, of a lot of businesses reverting back to a state where the capitalist and the worker are not very differentiated. they're just two peasants bound together both trying very hard to produce something. this makes it hard to apply traditional models of "the capitalist is purely a landlord and the workers can take over"; no, capitalists are sometimes doing just enough real work ordinary people get genuinely confused what a worker is. this isn't just the case in the arts. it's easy for there to be a small restaurant or a small thrift store where the owner still makes a lot of actual day-to-day decisions that could sink or float the workplace itself, and where even lists of union demands across ten tiny thrift stores might not operate fast enough to save it. the union turns into a crude hammer or axe operating on a scalpel-level task — although to be perfectly clear the surgeon is blind. nobody has the ability to both do the task and look at the task at the same time. this has led to a lot of wrong interpretations of unions — that unions are a bunch of [[E:tent of freedom poles|freedom poles]] uniting specifically for freedom, that workers primarily gain the ability to do their job through more and more freedom and not because of any structure or guidance, that if a ring of producing-capitalists strikes it's a gain for workers, that some workers "just don't know what producing-capitalists go through",

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Workers and capitalists sometimes have the same interests / The proletariat and bourgeoisie occasionally have the same interests -> this better covers unusual edge cases like North Korea or China where there can really be a situation where workers and owners have to all stand together against outside countries trying to own their country and take away their right to have a national government, even if outside countries have turned the world into a forever cold war where it's not a thing where you can do it for a short while and then stop. people can also argue over whether workers and owners ever have the same interests just because they both have to organize a Liberal-republican law for Black rights or similar. I'm still not over a contemporary Marxist theorist I will not name saying "workers and owners are diametrically opposed" "you have to detach everyone from the bourgeoisie that run the Democratic Party" and then "we have to build a social-democratic movement, I organize with landlords". one of those statements is wrong. I think it's actually the first one. I think the general concept of creating a large-scale movement of some kind before you try to [[Term:filtration|filter]] it is right. but I think the statement that workers and owners are neatly opposed is wrong. you wouldn't be able to get every single bourgeois assembling-people organizer into your movement and build a "social-democratic party" if they all consciously knew it was against them and that all the workers ultimately just wanted to get rid of them. so the question becomes, is social-democracy nothing more than a useful lie? if it's something more than a useful lie, there have to be solid material reasons for the bourgeoisie to support a nationwide movement where they largely stand to lose something and take on precarity rather than to gain something.

I'm not positive on that. I'll say this. Marxism survives when China merely keeps existing and nothing can destroy the most basic first steps of Marxism from the outside. Marxism also potentially survives when a relatively large area of industry emerges which is impossible to break apart, where the people don't forsake building any of it just because somebody gave them an offer to migrate somewhere better, and it fills up with workers. I said once in MDem drafts: once something becomes so big it's a whole population it decides what is legal, the people surrounding it don't determine what's legal or okay. but I also think that doesn't happen unless the inside of that area is genuinely strong and hard to break up. a statement that "we choose to allow empty houses" doesn't by itself create a population that strong.

I know that in some way that claim is very misleading. I think one reasonable hypothesis is that what actually happens is people are connected to the wrong people rather than the right people. simply being connected to reactionary relatives and living in a scarcity of jobs where there are no good places to move to and no workers to meet each day has a far greater effect than "phones" could ever have. in this sense you can argue that everybody normalizing breaking social bonds to be "free" or to "find success" tosses people into a world where they interact mostly with capitalism rather than any organic social connections and if their brain is functioning at all they will grow to hate it in less than a decade. the problem is that this only really manufactures theorists, not workers, because the kinds of people who get the most atomized aren't workers to begin with — by meta-Marxist definitions they're either petty bourgeoisie tearing into a multicapitalism which could theoretically one day lead a plural Marxism, or the Refuse class.

I guess one big factor is simply that one wolf has as many as 6 young, so you start with 7 mother wolves and you can end up with 42; a few leads to many of them. it really makes you think though, if you're writing an imaginary story akin to {{book|Warriors}} why would LGBT+ characters be a problem. once the pups are there you need somebody to raise those 6 pups. they won't really care who is there to protect them from being trampled or lead them out of a hunter area.

I think the sheer concept of tents of freedom poles taken on its own level is enough to do it. I think the sheer activity of telling people about the French Revolution and implying tents of freedom poles by itself can lead people to the wrong ideologies and away from the correct ones. this is because "tents of freedom poles" is a [[:Category:Bauplan ontologies|civilizational shape model]]. civilizational shape models exist below the level of abstract concepts, as if they were actual arrangements of classes. center-Liberals never supported the bourgeoisie just because they liked the bourgeoisie, and instead, propagating Existentialism is the new face of supporting the bourgeoisie.

Director types build {{censor|shit}}. they employ people to do the hard work and never to think. but they don't maintain it or own it, they just get together at fancy parties and go "isn't everything wonderful?! we're all friends friendship wonderful tent of freedom poles". they live in the moment and they don't care if anything totally breaks apart. so practically they always let society suddenly fracture into multiple violent societies, sometimes standing by and pretending to be neutral, sometimes joining a side and picking a big capitalist and simply slicing the country down the middle. to overcome all the bourgeoisie, practically speaking, workers have to be able to graph businesses together and predict which store sells to what to the point Directors aren't needed. they have to defeat anarchism, at least in [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|all its bourgeois forms that seem like 90% of it]], and the whole concept of a tent of freedom poles.

"a-culture-ism" appears to develop when anarchists are trying to find ways to break up material structures they consider hierarchical and then they realize that the structures are composed of groups of people bound together with toxic culture, so, applying the Idealist frameworks they don't like to abandon, they start declaring that the first step to forming an anarchist movement is to defeat "culture" and the ideas behind the ideas behind the ideas behind the prejudices behind the ideas in people's heads. it seems like this same concept leaches into Western Marxism just because everyone is actually anarchists or Existentialists before they become Marxists and they never quite figure out how to think entirely like Marxists and stop being anarchists.

China manages to hold back the billionaires with what is effectively a very similar structure to the United States, billionaires actually go to prison when they do something bad, but you need experts to run it which all amount to the petty bourgeoisie. so is China a dictatorship of the proletariat just because it has an intact party-nation of Marxist theorists? arguably, no, it is a Marxist party-nation but a party-nation isn't the same as a successful dictatorship of the proletariat, it's just the first step out of the utter suffering of Liberalism. Menshevism is not a bourgeois reform, literally forming China and giving it the power to violently suppress the bourgeoisie with weapons if truly necessary but it's nearly the same as the United States is the bourgeois reform, and the only reason we don't realize that is that we don't want to admit there are multiple bourgeoisies that utterly hate each other like inhuman carrion piles and so it's truly necessary for people to divide into plural areas of bourgeois control no matter what people want to think. the border of the wolf pack or lion pride is the dangerous part, not the high-ranking adults. that said. here is how I think the order goes: national independence; defeating Liberal-republicanism and creating party-nation; not creating capitalism; creating Bolshevism; dictatorship of the proletariat; age of multi-Bolshevism; hypothetical age of poly-Bolshevism. this is the order of discovering what theories are good theories, whether or not it's the actual order of history.

I am incapable of doing it practically. that question is one big contradiction. so my answer is, I will analyze every single other ideology through Marxism, but as itself rather than a confused Marxism that explains itself wrong. Trotskyism isn't secretly mainstream Marxism-Leninism, it's Trotskyism. anarchism isn't secretly Bolshevism, it's anarchism. and a Marxist analysis of anarchism is something very different than a Marxist analysis of Marxism pretending to be anarchism. I am a meta-Marxist. if I have to use Marxism to explain how to succeed at totally non-Marxist ideologies that never turn into Marxism then I will. but I won't lie to you that Western Maxism or anarchism "must" be effective just because everyone's doing them and an ideology that's popular "must" be a winning one. I will judge the effectiveness of ideologies based on history. currently it's looking pretty bad for anarchism and bizarrely good for Deng Xiaoping Thought. I have been wracking my brain as to why that latter trend exists, and [[E:The Cold War never ended|I think I half have an answer]]? but the answer only makes the outlook even worse for anarchism. anarchism is going to have to [[E:The Cold War never ended|molecularize]] or it will never win.

I am guessing disabled people would probably not prefer to define access this way. but it's hard to stop that hole from tearing open. some people rewrite programs because they are not practically "accessible" to all the people attempting to look at the code, to debug it and such, and thus they feel rewriting the program is more inclusive to all the human beings that would later look at it. this is all because calling code accessible or not accessible is a fallacy. it's always populations of people that are open or closed to people, and the existence of code or technology is totally incidental; code itself has no intentions on how it is designed. to overcome the fallacy you have to realize that the thing that performs accessibility is an institution. you have to basically deliberately create a really consistent group of people that will function As A Community Unit for it to be able to do accessibility. and when you do that, anarchists will show up accusing you of "centralization". anarchism — depending on which one it is of course — is this terrible contradiction. anarchists want to overcome all social oppressions and make everybody behave good. at the same time anarchists hate anything being consistent and cohesive enough that it could be a painted target for anyone to catch a law-breaking anarchist. this contradiction practically results in a bunch of disconnected anarchists with little information about each other who are unable to live up to the standards of anarchism and who perpetuate social oppressions, all because they are scared to have a civilization that has laws and can defend itself from other populations that think it shouldn't exist. this is the Free Software movement in a nutshell: it's anarchism hiding inside capitalism, and it has all the basic logical problems of anarchism.

the process of creating any civilization historically begins with training a bunch of highly specialized professor types who set up the civilization. after they do that, nobody else necessarily benefits from studying what they studied, but what they created is theoretically available for anyone to use and becomes cheaper. by conventional Liberal-republican wisdom, the same process should apply to everything, with anybody who goes to college being able to discover something new and snag an exclusive Careerist spot as a resident expert, or start a new business. of course, in real life it doesn't quite shake out that way. in real life, capitalism produces so fast thanks to its Third-World workers that culture fills up with available products and nobody even wants or needs any more innovations. people get gaslit that learning stuff will make them likable because people like talent and creativity and education and then they get gaslit again that there's no need for any more art or science if they aren't the next one-in-a-billion international corporation owner that made the stuff everybody around them will be actually using the next morning. so why then does everyone keep saying "college college college, go to college"? because it's ultimately a trick by the bourgeoisie to disguise capitalism. the longer everyone says "college college college", the slower people figure out that the economy has filled up into a very limited number of jobs where the key is not in being good at things but simply in claiming things first and staying in them as long as possible. this is easiest for someone with a huge bank account who does nothing but buy businesses or stocks. a finance capitalist can switch from industry to industry in a heartbeat without spending any money on training, and very easily forgets that all the college-educated people have to spend thousands of US dollars and take years and years to do what they can do in a day or a minute. the concept of education becomes outdated as education inevitably builds up societal structures in which people do not have to learn the things previous pioneers learned. this is good in that in theory jobs will come not to cost as much, although it can be bad in that those with the money and time to commit to education have no advantage over the person who is simply very obedient to the constructs previous educated people created and is willing to work for a low wage, even to the point of serious fault where they go to work for a Tory and fully accept the racist, misogynistic, ableist atmosphere. fifty able-bodied White men full of hatred and willing to work for any wage gain a particular amount of power to absolutely grind five college-educated progressives into the dust. even so, people will keep chanting "education education" like sending all the socially-linked Tories to get an arts degree and somehow bleeding it out of professors' pockets or something will magically fix everything. but in reality all those "education education" people are just falsely and confusedly thinking that they're at the level of elite pioneers who could have started the United States from scratch, they're temporarily embarassed colonizers. they get this wrong impression from the observation that Liberal-republicanism constantly imposes artificial destructive processes which arbitrarily grind up industry and start it over again, ostensibly so that capitalism is "fair" in that new people can enter it and [[E:stale rat bread|Zinovievize]] existing "industrial culture" whenever they get tired of it, but in reality, it's a ruse to make people think cultures are made of endless competition and churn when that can never be the definition of any culture. it's always been that cultures are made of invention, the codification of standards or structures, the falling of profit, and the enjoyment of abundance where applicable. this assumption is baked into the sheer existence of universities. the reason creating professors is valuable is that professors create wealth for society as a whole, not for individuals. even if universities create capitalists, the capitalists also create structure for society at a town- or local-state level rather than for themselves. "[[E:wealth brain|wealth brain]]" destroys humanity's ability to understand society, to understand what it is and how it develops. when you have wealth brain you believe that education is for earning personal wealth and society is nothing more than a bunch of shiny objects and paying, but if that were true, it would quickly become that individuals would destroy the social structures they are supposed to create and become both useless to society having contributed nothing, and incapable of earning wealth because they created no consistent means of production. funny enough that's kind of exactly what's happened. people are going to college thinking wealth wealth wealth (not that it's their fault when they're not allowed to think anything else) and they end up utterly unemployed as all the necessary businesses are full and incapable of creating a business. they're not creating unions because there aren't enough businesses per individual being born for them to work at and if they manage to find a job it's always more advantageous for them to move to either a "prestigious opportunity" or one of the "only" regions with jobs left than to stay and fight for the first one they got. with nothing to fight for it's easy for the bourgeoisie to shove the smallest spark of resistance totally out and make them scramble to create a second rival bourgeoisie just to live. simultaneously businesses periodically fail just because they have trouble lasting forever, taking all their workers down with them. each failure of a capitalist hurts workers and gives an opening to a swath of new petty bourgeoisie that's enough to cause trouble but not enough to provide real relief to the unemployed population. they grow a bit, they enable really gigantic marketplace-owners that will get to keep the money forever, some of them drop away, one gets big and the hole in capitalism plugs back up. a little later another medium-sized business fails and the cycle starts again, or maybe towns just fill up with a bunch of tiny businesses that are constantly opening up and dying and causing confusion for everybody.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">In the U.S., a tiny bit of economism is warranted -> this might be controversial. but from 30 years of experience living here, the people of the United States are often joined together only and solely by mathematics. no appeal to shared history, freedom, generosity, or empathy can actually join U.S. people together, although somehow the one thing that can join people together is economic imperatives like a corporation being there tomorrow and everyone having to go to the same corporation to receive a paycheck. people put up with their relatives almost solely because their relatives have money or able bodies while they don't actually like them or feel a bond to them. people join identity politics movements for selfish reasons of protecting themselves as much as for actually helping anyone else, graphed together by the promise of a bunch of people joined together winning rights and an elusive mathematics of graphs and people-blobs which might one day explain it. the whole concept of solidarity as some kind of moral or emotional connection or "the love of humanity" just doesn't really apply in the United States. talking as if employee types even have emotions left and aren't just hollow vessels of depression is almost itself an appeal to the bourgeoisie. the bourgeoisie have all sorts of time for marketing novels and talking about [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition|expression and emotion and Lived Experience]]. but as for any genuine workers that exist — for whatever five minutes they exist until being totally forced off business territories and being forced to start a new teeny precarious business — it's more useful to think of workers as devoid of emotion and being herded around by societal patterns and themselves to the things they "[[E:Anarchy is the most authoritarian thing there is|just have to do today]]" as if with cattle prods. the whole thing is held together with nothing but mathematics, there's no emotion in it. this leads me to feel like to fix it it's perfectly okay to appeal not to anything emotional but instead solely to new mathematics that people can recite as the thing they "just have to do today" equally as dispassionately.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Industrial work does not create wealth / Industrial work does not create wealth for individuals, it creates actively-flowing groups of people who are graphed together exchanging things with each other and who enjoy stability and surplus wealth for social programs only when they are strongly united -> at its basics, wealth is the possession of independent survival separate from all other members of society. peasant life generally possesses this unless somebody else claims the land from the peasants. industrial work does not create wealth in the same way, despite everyone's misleading metaphors about "the grasshopper and the ant". industrial work creates stuff: the material components of culture which do not necessarily have much value by themselves but are valuable precisely inasmuch as three corporations constantly producing them can sell them to each other. "stuff" is only meaningful as part of a structured graph arrangement of people, and ceases to be meaningful when the graph arrangements break and nobody will take it. simultaneously capitalists stupidly try to insist that graph arrangements breaking is normal, although to anyone with a brain that is the momentary absence of capitalism, not an actual process inside capitalism. saying that "market corrections" are part of capitalism is like saying that cats frequently dying of kidney failure is a useful and important part of cats; a bug in the system isn't a design. 
this question takes on a whole new dimension in light of anarchism. anarchists successfully understand that peasants had wealth more easily, but fail to understand the purpose of corporate products. the social purpose of corporate products is to make it easier to produce something useful without it having to be judged by the harsh immediate demands of survival — to make it possible to spend your time writing poetry or making watercolors of crows like a third of anarchists would love to do, instead of finding that because you're a woman and a mother dad said you had to watch the baby while he works with the cows. having to do work at the level of individual independence and survival has a lot of unintended consequences. independence and "wealth" make it hard to spend your time on children without accidentally resenting them or creating conflicts between the parents, while statistically at least half the population is going to have children. capitalism, at first, [[E:Capitalism dices countries into half a country per person|is just as bad about this]], but eventually makes it possible to chain together a bunch of corporations that are all in effect paying for each other's existence and have just enough productivity left over to provide inexpensive childcare. capitalism creates surplus wealth for a particular chunk of society at a time specifically because undirected graphs of people are all graphed together, vaguely like the way electrons are all graphed together across two atoms in a chemical bond. incidentally this benefit goes away when people allow Liberal-republicanism to [[E:multiple capitalisms in one country|divide people into two populations]] — the two populations don't graph together properly and the wealth doesn't get shared "across the bond" — although Deng Xiaoping Thought funny enough more or less fixes that, leaving China with an intact capitalism and in an objectively better stage of history than the United States. 
the big challenge for anarchists, or for Bolshevism, is to master graph economics. you can't even put a bunch of anarchists in a village and know the thing will hold together without knowing what the structures are and the inputs of every structure are in order to determine the other structures' outputs. industrial work does not create wealth. it creates graphs that are doing a verb. the republic is [[Term:republicking|republicking]], the town is towning, the village is villaging. this is the sense in which anarchism is indistinguishable from capitalism. Marxists say this accusation in a negative tone but it doesn't really have to be negative if anarchists simply didn't attack workers' states and stuck to peacefully creating tiny city-states that help workers' states on the off chance they're actually able to. the ideal scenario for anarchists is basically that you have a Soviet Union with 14 big republics and then you have like 300 teeny tiny city-states that are also part of the structure. I don't know how many, maybe it would only be like 20.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="F2">Industrial work creates hierarchies -> the problem with the concept is in the word "creates". if you stop at "industrial work ... hierarchies", then you've got it basically correct. when there is industrial work it is the case there are spatial hierarchies. but industrial work isn't the thing that creates them. industrial work is a response to them already being there, which attempts to solve them and make them less bad and more tractable. the end of that solving process looks like graphs that have been graphed together into the "shared electron" process of capitalism. 
anarchism is so... blockheaded. whenever you try to cover the things said in anarchism it comes out in such simple words I feel almost like I could explain why anarchism is false in toki pona. I would love to do that, just take one or two of these propositions and after it's written make a toki pona translation. the only real problem is I'm not "fluent", I don't have the standard usages and grammars down yet. but I do know in the mean time I can always make an en-x-pona page to later translate the toki pona from. I remember the first time I discovered [https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_English_Wikipedia simple english wikipedia] and not really thinking deeply about how many English learners there are I found it so funny. now even though I see "simple English" as a serious tool with broad application I still think it's fun. I still have a laugh at the notion of a complicated idea being "unrolled" into simple language to the point anyone should find it obvious. I hope someone else has as much fun with the en-x-pona pages as I will.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S">Science is discovered independent of cultures -> the question of whether science is a cultural construct is rather complicated. I feel like to answer it properly you have to separate out "the scientific method" from "an ontological model discovered through science which is now a field of study at a university". when you're talking about the second thing, you can absolutely argue that science is a social construct, specifically because each field of study contains assumptions or hastily accepted hypotheses and could always contain important errors. say that clinical testing is a field of study, but in practice the whole field of clinical testing has almost exclusively tested treatments on men. this would lead clinical testing to be a social construct which contains scientific errors and which would have to be updated through the scientific method into a better construct.

I think using ancient Egypt is a good thought experiment because it doesn't run into problems of tribal populations a really long time ago simply not being able to get the apparatus to test things; the single, sole advantage of class society is that it has wealth. tribal populations today are very different because they can make the journey to industrial centers if they really want to, so the major issue that comes up today is the will or decision-making power of different populations to be able to do things on particular land areas or "impose forms of science". anyway it's less complex to do this with ancient empires or very large populations versus small tribal populations; if you want to do this with tribal populations you use today's indigenous populations rather than the ones that existed a long time ago.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S">For historical materialism to be a science, it has to be doable for people in any period of history -> Newtonian physics is a science because the overall set of patterns of Newtonian physics could have been studied in any historical period given the right equipment and ingenuity to design tests. psychology is a science because despite many different models of psychological phenomena throughout the decades and slow refinement, the underlying phenomena are the same in any historical period. historical materialism has a unique challenge that the substrate of people underneath it changes each historical period, creating difficulties for applying the science the same way in all historical periods. in one period you have a wealthy pseudo-landlord doing physics. in another period you have a university Careerist type who is also privileged. in the future there may be more genuine workers in science — if the proletariat is restored at all, of course. a very long time ago you are looking basically at royal appointees and priests. but when the topic of science turns into historical materialism, you have to turn these different groups of people around to study themselves. and that could be challenging, simply to get people to comprehend the idea of a different group of people thinking about something in the future than the group they're in. try thinking about your own death and somebody else consciously observing the world every day in place of you. that always feels a little off; the human mind inherently has trouble comprehending anybody else being conscious instead of itself. I think the same thing is true for plural groups of people existing in the present. a group of White Southern Baptist Christians, no matter how nice they are, will have a little trouble imagining zapping their perception over to India where people in India are conscious instead of them, and vice versa the other direction. this in turn makes it hard to understand the concept of a whole other class subpopulation of people, who manages to exist in the very same country as you and yet isn't you and is consciously perceiving the world instead of you. to someone who has never experienced it, the whole concept of another class probably feels like one of those weird science fiction scenarios like [[E:It's easier to imagine impossible matter fractals than the end of capitalism|discovering your universe is only an atom in another universe and you never knew]]. even a group of workers in the 1930s United States would find it hard to predict the 2020s where the proletariat has been shoved off the area of the country and everyone has been turning into hostile warring factions of bourgeoisie. to be able to comprehend historical processes that might happen in each period you really have to [[E:meta-Marxism|see outside yourself]] and see all the groups of people that exist, all the classes, all the factions consisting of plural [[Term:Social-Philosophical System|class-subpopulations each with a local ideology inside]]. but, if you can do that you're set. you're ready, in any historical period, to comprehend the possible futures that could happen.

I know it's very relatable to me to have had to learn Japanese to have the only experience I could possibly have of two separate, different groups of people interacting in a benign way instead of necessarily pounded through this particular strainer of racism. it's like if you even watch an anime dub it will expose you to people interpreting the show or the choices of the show writers in xenophobic ways, while only when you watch a show un-dubbed (or read any number of book translations that happen not to have this problem) do you simply experience the show as someone in its origin country would experience it. (the fact that Japan is a now-stationary First-World empire that should basically be the same as Britain and logically shouldn't be subject to such prejudices only makes this whole phenomenon that much worse.) {{censor|god}}. {{censor|shit}}? I struggle to think of an appropriate swearword. after messing with [[E:Would you kill a Russian in order to vote?|the "voting licenses" thought experiment]] I felt a bit like dirt. even though the scenario was by no means framed positively. and I just started burying myself in an introductory Russian language textbook. that was what felt better. if there was another language in existence and I wasn't speaking this one then I wasn't in [[E:Would you kill a Russian in order to vote?|the nightmare scenario]]. it's kind of irrational in the end. if I read a language textbook or comic in another language do I actually know whatsoever how people in another country think and feel? I would like to know. when I read Marxist history texts I feel like I learned a lot more about it than I knew before. but there are always times when I freak out about the concept that the separation between populations of people as material objects is always stronger than anyone's ability to reason or intuit about what other populations are feeling and any attempt to have empathy or think about the problems of other groups of people could potentially offend someone, because you didn't predict the thing that was literally actually in their mind which was the only tone in which it was acceptable to speak about them at all. it makes me afraid regarding the potential for diplomacy between groups of people, how or whether it is even possible in a world where anyone is like this.

on why this isn't sound: people like predictability. people tend to take unpredictability as indistinguishable from rudeness, hostility, or malice — because, to be fair, a lot of actual malice [[E:Vegeta effect|pops up totally unpredictably]]. when big eruptions of violence happen, people are very happy when they stop. when small incidents of violence happen, people can become terrified just because they never know when it stops, and they will look for the nearest pattern they can see to try to find a causal mechanism that can stop it. this means some people will look at "termite violence", see a recurring pattern of "Black people", and start judging all Black people or even retaliating at all Black people with their own "termite violence" just to stop a presumed pattern of "toxic Black culture".

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Greed is not a good model because in order for people to not be greedy they all need to have a big pile of education that isn't necessarily materially available to them -> note that "information being available" and "education being available" are very different things. misinformation is incredibly cheap. real education is always more expensive. information which contains education has to be checked over by somebody. it has to be compiled based on previous sources that cost someone money, even if it's the library paying. somebody has to pay to publish the education, and somebody has to make calculations of the correct people to sell it to in order to have enough money to print it in the first place. various people inside that supply chain or industrial structure all have to pay to have the training or experience to do all of their roles effectively, and it's an uncertain leap for all those people to decide they can definitely succeed at what they're doing well enough to justify all the spending they'll have to do to get to do the risky thing in the first place. so in this weird way, greed is required to successfully produce enough education to educate people to not be greedy. say capitalist Bob is making all kinds of terrible anti-human decisions about all the businesses underneath him. if he is totally content as he is, he won't think education to become better is "worth paying for" with his money or effort. so in order to just get capitalist Bob who has all the money to change himself the whole rest of the population will have to pay to make that education really easy and basically free to the point it is almost more difficult for him to not bump into it and start reading it out of boredom. if you think of all education in the framing of bibles, every piece of information considered critical to humanity has to be as easy to obtain at a used book store for a few cents as a Christian bible is — go to a book sale, and there are even some of them where just the bibles are free. the astronomical amount of labor from all people in an entire country to make every critical piece of information both that easy to obtain and that easy to fact-check for the crustiest Tory who never uses the internet is what's required to make the model of "greed" or "insensitivity" even make any sense. yes, any person can change their mind. yes, you'll have to work 18 hour days where a whole lot of your effort isn't paid at all and can't be solved by "donating to charity" to make it happen, where the amount of effort required might take away from your children and your recreation and your social relationships which aren't directly to progressive people with some involvement in movements and from your novel-writing and your cat. a lot of anarchists never stop and think about this, how much difficult labor it actually takes to produce a lot of anything, including a lot of easily available quality education, and how much labor they'd have to do just to preserve the principle of freedom and every change in society coming from individual free choice or from supposedly spawning that indirectly through the pressure of "termite violence".

</li><li class="field_geo" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Most science is not done in reality / Most science is not done in the material world / Most science is not done in the field or in laboratories / criterion for identifying scientific revisionism, defining the failure to recognize correct models as revisionism -> sounds shocking at first but logically has to be true. textbooks and teachers present science to children like every scientific claim is always substantiated by testing it in the material world. but that leaves people with a really bad understanding of science by the time they have to actually go interpret complicated discusssions in string theory and quantum field theory which will take a long time to go to some kind of particle accelerator or highly indirect apparatus that was unusual in the early days of science and finally get tested. these days most claims in science actually get tested against highly accurate models of experiments instead of in actual experiments. that's what you actually do when you cross-check a new hypothesis against older equations and existing experiment teams — those equations and memories of experiments are models of experiments. and this is why I find non-Materialist interpretations of literature frustrating. the people saying that fiction is not internally consistent in a way where some claims (although not every claim) can be tested against coherent models of a fictional world's internal physics may not actually understand real-world science, because at the end of the day, taking your best coherent model of <cite>Dragon Ball</cite> and testing something against it and taking your best coherent model of current experiments to understand the universe and testing something against it are not actually all that different. unpopular opinion, building theories about fiction and trying to solve if everything is actually consistent shows you are building a good understanding of the real world. also, most science of historical processes and ideologies would not be done in the real world. if you understand how science truly works, then you'll understand how Marxism truly works and how meta-Marxism truly works. it's very possible I had to invent the category of meta-Marxism purely because people around the world don't understand that most Marxist "experiments" amount to thought experiments or peer review through the means of models of old experiments. I've always been confused why Marxism wasn't already meta-Marxism. why wouldn't Marxists test their models against each other for accuracy, and why would Marxists end up dividing into different competing versions of Marxism that become unfalsifiable?

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Waiting for people to die is hatred / Waiting for people to die is as bad as hatred -> there is this really huge contradiction in the way everyone defines prejudices in the United States. normal people believe that every bad thing comes from prejudices. it's bad to be prejudiced. but for some reason it's okay to take the group of everyone who has prejudices and hate it. it's even okay to say things like "when the boomers die out", although logically that should be a prejudiced statement because you don't want them to exist or physically live and you want to squash their inner experience and everything they think and feel. isn't that statement just the act of passively killing them very slowly? I think the bible verse about hatred is truer backward: people dying is the same as hatred, people dying is as bad as hatred. if you frame it that way it's easier to conceptualize what the definition of hatred should actually be. in my mind hatred is when Trotsky exists but you don't like anything about him and you don't want him to exist, and you won't go to the active effort to make it possible for Trotsky to coexist with all the followers of Stalin, actually in real life, actually taking into account the goals and desires of both groups of people and realizing both of them instead of making a compromise that crudely squashes one of them to have the other, like, you have to build a world which realizes Trotskyism to some extent that Trotskyists eventually agree with even though it is limited by the rules of reality, instead of a world which acts to prevent Trotskyism, to the point that Trotskyism and mainstream Marxism-Leninism both exist and they both acknowledge each other as part of each other even though they began with different content and are not the same entity and have to actively get to know a new entity in order to predict and merge with that entity. an odd metaphor when applied to anything else, but it really illustrates what the problem with anything else is: if you want Protestants and Catholics to coexist or White Southern Baptist Christians and Black people to coexist, etc, you need to understand that each countable group of people realizes differently and builds different things and it's the Social-Philosophical-Material content that is realized out of each group of people that brings culture clashes. culture clashes don't come from abstract ideas and attitudes, they come from people realizing clashing material behaviors like Black people are saying slang words like "cook" or whatever it might be and White people actually hate that realized behavior because they prefer another behavior for them to do and everyone to do. a countable group of disabled people realizes the behavior of building ramps and a countable group of able-bodied people wants to realize a different behavior that is most natural in their group. so to get people to stop culture-clashing you actually have to get people to agree on the particular, not the abstract, to actually do and like specific realized behaviors which are not ideas at all but are acts of existing and being in a certain way. if it were true that hatred was an idea, then everyone around the world would immediately love neopronouns and unnecessarily-specific gender labels just because they don't want to be hateful, but that isn't how things work. acceptance and tolerance is always creepily conditioned on how well you can twist and contort normal people to pretend to not be normal and enjoy it as an active way of existing and being and making every daily decision and directing the whole of their Free Will and identity assuming that either of those exist toward the specific end of not being themselves as they were yesterday and being somebody new. it genuinely doesn't make sense to comprehend tolerance through individual freedom, because to truly tolerate someone not just where you're hiding your hatred but at the level where you could become friends is to overwrite and destroy individual identity and freedom, and the only question is whether this is a good thing. I think there's a decent argument to be made that it is, but it is nothing like [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialism]] and the way that everybody ever tries to comprehend freedom and The Subject. this is a new philosophy I have no name for. I already named entropicism. maybe I should name this one too. this is, uh... the ego-death philosophy of tolerance and friendship, I don't know how to make that snappy. this is the philosophy where instead of Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash being friends and gelling into a team because they're unique different competing individuals who each separately want freedom, Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash are friends because they agree to become each other in part if never in whole and abandon the parts of them that are harmful to them being friends. under this paradigm, [[E:Starlight Glimmer|Starlight Glimmer]] creates her [[E:Pol Pot|Pol Pot]] village and it's up to the Ponies in it to either become the new culture in part as they become part of the new culture, or leave, and there's nothing heroic about them leaving as individuals versus staying as a group; the village does not have to exist but if it does the success of the village depends on them working together and not being too selfish to be part of society. I wonder how different that show would be if it was written under that ethos. all those weird repetitive "be yourself" plots in the last season would probably be different and maybe even better written. like just imagine if there was an episode where a Pony was getting mocked and bullied in Ponyville or one of the main locations but it was because they were too much of a free individual to stay in Totally Not Eastern Europe; their own greedy individuality [[E:The Soviet diaspora was a second Trail of Tears|left them with nothing and turned them into a minority somewhere else]] constantly getting picked on by others.

I think it's fairly possible to argue this. definitely in fake cases like Bolshevism supposedly having a dictator it applies, but it also applies in real cases like {{Term:Wasp Swarm}}s and Donald Trump or Ron DeSantis, and Protestants joining up with a Protestant king to squash Catholics. it even applies to the fake case of anarchists and Existentialists turning their backs on Trotsky claiming Trotskyists are a collective dictator that is trying to make them conform to Trotskyism. this seems like a solid model of what causes human beings to label things "dictator" or try to define the concept of a [[E:generalized dictator|generalized dictator]].

</li><li class="field_ML" data-remark="Marx" value="618" data-dimension="S2">When the proletariat is free there will be no class antagonisms [https://www.desk.c.u-tokyo.ac.jp/download/es_1_Shigeno.pdf] -> the more I've come to compare what Marx said with history that has happened between 1900 and 2020 the more I've come to doubt this — that this statement is simply true without missing important information. I think there's a fundamental role played by separate populations such as countries and towns which wasn't well captured by Marx. and I think this is exemplified really clearly and simply by the emergence of early Trotskyism. you look at Trotsky and Zinoviev and their at-most-five-or-so Marxist theorists that started the conspiracy. they just wanted something to belong to, but the Soviet Union didn't really want them, and subtly pushed them out. (they think it wasn't subtle and was so blatant they could outline it like a conspiracy, but that's simply not historically accurate. if anything there was just an undesigned motion of the whole system of people, the central party and ministries and "bureaucrats" and so forth, slowly nudging them out as they didn't fit in and didn't understand it.) Trotsky's accounts of the Russian revolution are, a bit amusingly, often personal stories centered on him, but there is something specific that sifts out of that. the notion that some people are Marxist theorists but the only thing that strongly connects them to anything is a shared bond to a countable culture. you toss Trotsky out of this utterly miraculous bond made of little more than friendship that should never have been able to happen from the point of view of basic Marxist theory and he's going to be pretty mad. the act of tossing out theorists can cause a population to start slowly dividing as if it were some kind of biological cell sorting all the chromosomes into one side and the other side. I think there was a little bit of intellectual dishonesty in the Soviet Union where they did not want to acknowledge the possibility that even if the country would not naturally divide by regenerating the bourgeoisie your local theorists are the glue holding the country together and the whole thing could crack into multiple countries starting from the top. now, it's not like Trotsky was the keystone and if you get rid of him the whole thing comes crumbling down, but it is like the structure could break anywhere but because Trotsky is one of the weakest links ready to snap it all started there. you listen to these dumb capitalist-aligned sources talk about the Soviet Union and they say things like, the ministries and local party-nations were so bloated, having a level of state businesses is too much government, I couldn't stand having soviets in my town!! and basically none of that truly makes any sense. but when you take a perspective more from inside the country you see there were weaknesses most people don't really talk about. countries themselves are fragile in their own way; sometimes it's the simple notion we can make 300 million [[E:Subjects eat and occupy space|eating space-occupying organisms]] coexist instead of fight each other that's arrogant. and so Liberal-republicans will go thinking that sending 200 hostile representatives to compete against each other won't go badly and won't eventually devolve into blood feuds between sections of Alabama. party-nations are a lot less bad, being made on the basis of cooperation to start with. but sometimes there can still be cracks in them that threaten to tear an otherwise united population apart. there hasn't been enough thought in Marxism about the concept that every population is a material object, just as much as a block of ice is a unique material object and it would be a different collection of material objects if you broke it in two. there's been this consistent motif throughout what seems like all Marxism that for any given collection of people the only thing dividing the proletariat is it being stuck under the bourgeoisie and the simple need for everyone to get out of there will unite everyone permanently. but I honestly doubt it's that simple. how can it be that Trotskyists believe this, and early Marxists believe this, and Stalin believes this, but Trotsky and Stalin can get into a fight about how to free everybody around the world and unify everybody around the world? that shouldn't be possible. unless the content of what they are each trying to do is different even when Trotskyists do become Leninists, or there is something fundamental about two groups currently being separate objects that makes them compete and fight until they are literally one object that physically cannot fight itself any more. the latter one scares me a bit so I tend to focus on the first one hoping that one could be true. the notion that we only need to fix the content of our Marxisms and make them interlock together from the inside is a nice idea. I'm not absolutely certain it's true or the most important thing but it does give me a starting point that's not depressing.

European countries far smaller than the U.S. fought each other in World War I. prior to the United States England was breaking into Protestant and Catholic nations failing to live in harmony. so populations not living in harmony and trying to kill or conquer each other started well before colonies were created on new continents. worse, that isn't the hopeful thing some postcolonial theories want to make it into where all feudalism equals colonialism and therefore anarchism can surely fix it. like, if anarchism was really that easy it would have been discovered in the year 1,000 and we'd be already reading about the wars between Protestants and anarchists in history books. now that does sound like a severely interesting history book but it sadly doesn't exist.

I think this gets marked false for the wrong reasons. I think what really happens is economics is based on scarce gold bars or scarce production-acts while the number of houses is separate and irrelevant to what scarcity even practically is and has been. products aren't even scarce, partly because people will swap out non-fungible things for each other in a way that is hard to measure. people will use old things. people will use one thing for the other thing. in the early United States people could just claim land and it wasn't scarce yet. even now, the United States has a great land area. so scarcity of land was created by giving plots of land "brains" and letting them say no. The Subject caused land to be available exactly when it wants to form a graph connection. suddenly it started to become that every product within supply chains was synonymous with arrangements of people and the availability of people-graphs — with these diminishing pyramids of how much choice people actually have in being part of a people-graph. that's the really dumb thing about the cybernetics research group — if capitalism were actually about "time" or decision-making, then you wouldn't be able to stop it because it would have taken up all your Free Will and decision-making ability before you could even think about stopping it and build a cybernetics research group.

</li><li class="field_gramsci" value="618" data-dimension="S2">To maintain anti-discrimination laws the Democratic Party must own businesses -> derived Gramscian proposition. in the United States, one of the chief reasons for anyone to be a progressive at all (red, charcoal, blue, of any color) is just to push for anti-discrimination laws in businesses and hope that will make them not be bigoted (it won't, but still, everyone is really convinced it will). what this really amounts to is wanting a "business constitution" that all businesses have to follow the same way all local-states in the United States have to follow the U.S. Constitution. to practically secure a business constitution what you'd have to do is hand all the businesses that are going to follow it to the Democratic Party as state businesses, so that whether it owns them monetarily it will own them geographically. under some arrangement like that it would actually be possible to make businesses follow a business constitution, because if they refuse to follow it it would be possible to kick them out of the structure and hand them over to the Republican Party.

(I believe this is because inside it all people are actually participating in and regenerating [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialism]] and getting Liberalism as an emergent effect.)

I wish the United States would drop the concept that "systemic" problems are made of ideas and attitudes when that is not at all what "system" usually means, and what it almost always suggests is an arrangement of material moving parts which is distinguishable from other arrangements of moving parts. if all "systems" are just clouds of individuals they aren't distinct from each other as systems and you can't change them. well, unless you literally forcibly change ethnicities and demographics themselves, given that clouds of individuals are equivalent to countable cultures.

I think the question to ask here on motifs like these is this. if you don't arrest the kulaks and put them in Gulag or whatever happens to them, and you insist on tent of freedom poles, what hypothetically happens? assume that whatever they did was relatively bad. they did something at least as morally questionable as casually posting on twitter that "when I say 13% of the population commits 50% of the crimes they all get so fired up but they know they're wrong and pathetic". on rare occasion there are recorded historical incidents where kulak types would shoot well-liked public officials if they had the opportunity. they're your "January-6ers". they're bad news. so what are you going to do with those? they're not going to listen to anything you say just because they strive to be nice. if they could retreat to their peasant life and survive but watch 90% of society die, which in the kulaks' case they can, there's a nonzero chance they'd be the kind of person to just take that option, which we have decent reason to believe looks closer to 50% than 1%. kulaks aren't the ones dutifully paying taxes to help people exist. so what are you going to do with them? 
the typical answer you see is "community". "community, community, community", as if culture and community have the power to solve everything. but let's say that actually worked. everyone bombards the kulaks with good values. they don't behave. they don't want to contribute. they act like people trying to integrate them into a community is uncalled for. people ramp up efforts to saturate everyone with Community. when the kulaks don't participate everyone just starts utterly boycotting them and going "you can't buy products from that region, that's where the kulaks live and they don't like Community, you have to buy from these good regions". they effectively isolate all the kulaks into an island and turn them into their own tiny nation that is being embargoed and starved of anything they can't create themselves. this only exacerbates tensions between the two groups of people. if people recognized as being from the kulak region go into one of the progressive cities they're going to be treated with utter prejudice. if any of the progressive regions go through a really hard time and we assume the Soviet population is anarchist instead of Communist, some people are just going to attack the kulaks and steal their stuff because they feel like that's the justified thing to do to people that have spat in their face and never helped them. the whole thing would start morphing into a warring states period or a blood feud really really quickly. you're going to be killing them or firing guns at them one day just because you belong to two incompatible populations that don't want to be part of one Community while anarchists are busy enforcing a wrong model that Community is universal and automatic. if you really want to not kill the kulaks then it's a very bad idea to be an anarchist or a psychoanalyst, no matter who you are, even right this second. you have a far greater chance of an outcome where they keep their lives if you allow Bolshevism and you allow a central government to enforce laws on every population rather than making everything about the social relationships between individuals or populations, which can turn very abusive.

I'm not totally positive on that. but after seeing people on a toki pona related forum literally hyper-correct "pre-industrial societies in general" to "postcolonial societies" it sure is hard not to think that in practice "postcolonial" is just a synonym or euphemism for anarchism.

I definitely didn't mean to imply that. but this is what happens when absolutely everybody around you is anarchy-brained and convinced the United States will totally avoid any shred of Marxism and purely go through a transition to Anarchism. it was in the entries about "Red Structuralism" ([[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialism-Structuralism]]), where I said something to the effect that Existentialists were trying to do absolutely everything that would happen in an active transition through socialism before creating a workers' state and it was an open question whether that could in fact potentially work. although the subtext below that statement, especially if I'd said the same thing today, was that you might end up with a uniquely Anarchist, charcoal-tinted workers' state. the real crux here is the difference between Marxist and anarchist workers' states, and whether a "charcoal" workers' state has a plausible realization process. most of the time I want to say the answer is no, but the pain of having to operate in a society and movement landscape where almost literally everybody is an Existentialist pretending anarchism is Liberal-republicanism or an unapologetic fascistic Tory but you still supposedly have to "work within The Left" to [[Term:filtration|filter]] it really messes with your head.

Isaac Newton didn't know there wasn't one big linear flow of spacetime, so he cursed science with "linear time". then Albert Einstein showed up and laid out a model where if anything has an approximately linear flow of time then there are billions of them going in parallel and none of them is "the real one". so, we start with relativity. for any particular Group Subject with so-called "cybernetic flows" inside, let's say it's a Trotskyist party to be funny, that Group Subject [[Term:reterminism|retermines]] stuff about itself using its internal elements and the things immediately surrounding it. if there is a big bad Communist Party of the Soviet Union in the way, the Trotskyist party will do what it can to plan around its environment and realize Trotskyism, its preferred so-called "fiction". this happens on a timetable specific to and emerging from the Trotskyist party, while the CPSU may have a different timeline of how it wants to realize its own plans. there is nothing particularly cosmic about this in a magic-ritual or sci-fi time travel sense. the CPSU doesn't actually distort spacetime and take causality away from the Trotskyist party. both of them still have a timeline on which they can act to the degree they are capable. but, even so, when the two groups interact with their surrounding reality and each other, some possibilities collapse into more disappointing ones as a product of all the directions of interaction. whatever "fiction" (sociophilosophy or ontology) you come up with, it will always be affected by the presence of other "fictions" busy realizing themselves in relativistic time. all the fictions are realizing at once, some of them succeeding and some of them not succeeding, and the ones that don't successfully realize only keep getting screwed over by the successful ones in a vicious cycle. so the deal with Newtonian linear time is that it's an effect of sociophilosophies defeating each other, not a cause. linear time is only an outward perception of the result of what happened, but because it's a result, you can't simply fight it to fix the inner causal process. man. if the chaos magicians had just stopped with the notion of realizing fictions and never ever said anything about time, I would have been more receptive to it.

I think there's at least some amount of an argument, maybe not rock-solid exactly, that it understands art on a higher level. the level where art has already succeeded and transported us to the new reality it has fabricated. shouldn't it be the highest praise of art having succeeded when people are actually living in that reality for a moment?

I think anarchism is full of special pleading that anarchism is inherently better just because it's anarchism. and I think in a sense you really can't expect anything else, because this is how all ideologies actually work. anarchists cluster together, Communist allies cluster together, Tories cluster together, as if they were ethnicities or some other demographic, then they protect each other and determine their ideology as a group.

[https://www.protevi.com/john/SEDAAG.pdf] I'll say it out loud: two people is not a hierarchy. in the medieval sense, a hierarchy covers a whole kingdom, or a significantly large local state likely not bigger than Italy. words are whatever, but that's the definition of why hierarchies are actually important to anything. because they're big. the concept of hierarchy is not relevant to the study of historical revolutions unless you have a concept of hierarchy which refers to large structures instead of specifically to relationships. anyway. the major fallacy here is thinking that forming a population-society will not cause new "hierarchies", when in reality it could, simply as a requirement of realizing itself into a viable structure. it could be that you have to form things the anarchists think are "hierarchies" to get a large group of people free from something larger than that. to not admit that is basically to commit Trotsky's world population fallacy and erase the existence of countable cultures and ethnicity and language and religion and racism. the differences populations raise between themselves are connected to the existence of populations as separate interacting objects, which creates borders, which creates internal structure and Archons. this is why you need to conceptualize freedom as a different internal structure within the same populational unit or units.

Steven Universe was wired, I'm just saying. relationships really are new entities, even if they aren't people exactly. one remaining question: what ideology is this exactly?

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Rights-based strategies create a bunch of bureaucrats -> when explained by the right person who actually knows things, I actually have to agree with this one. Liberal-republicanism can seem so pointless at times because although people sort of get to argue over the rights of demographic subpopulations, there is this tiny crust of representatives and experts and owners that actually "receives" the rights when most people don't even really get anything. are you a disabled senator? movements for human rights will probably be perfect for you. are you anybody else? tough luck. this is the thing. I make fun of Trotskyism and anarchism at times because sometimes they really have no idea what they're even saying. but at the core of it you have this very sympathetic problem of the book-intelligent Trotsky figure who should be good for something and is thrown out of his society because this particular crust of really elite representatives who are good at what they do and better at things than anyone else totally invalidates the guy as having any place in the country and leaves him not able to articulate what the problem with anything even is beyond "I think I am mad at The Bureaucrats". and I'm tired of that too. on one hand people need to not have entirely stupid interpretations of Marxism, but on the other, if they would only listen, I don't really want people thrown out like that.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Anarchism can understand The State if it understands anarchy / Anarchism can have a reasonable explanation of The State if it has a reasonable model of anarchy -> apply meta-Marxism to anarchism, and a lot of the frustration goes away, as long as you can briefly explain what anarchist secret operations are actually defending. as long as an anarchist population is something in particular, then all the logical contradictions relating to anarchism and The State and hierarchy become matters of how words are defined rather than real problems. the anarchist population that is a particular thing orders and administers itself in a particular way and defends the population in a particular way and everything is logically coherent, it nicely fits into history as a material entity... if you can only explain what the anarchist population actually is at the time all the cats have slain the boars and the dust settles.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Any reasonable definition of The State must be able to explain the historical process of national independence movements -> one of the barest criteria for judging whether anarchists are spouting nonsense. The State forms in plurality as populations dividing into plurality differentiate. if anarchists can't explain why a country such as Ukraine would form a nation-state separate from Russia, or North Korea or East Germany would form a nation-state separate from the major axes of Liberal-republican countries, they are not ready to tell anyone else about The State.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Wars are hierarchical -> I think there's a pretty good argument for this given any definition of what a hierarchy is. given the medieval definition of a layout of people which is conflated with owning individuals of particular classes, a war easily turns into a Napoleonist phenomenon with one population-government stomping over the top of the other and trying to extract debts or treaties. given the crude definition used by anarchists, a war is the act of leaping one State over another population to enforce a particular way of being, which is to say one population is more important than another. this is the fundamental contradiction that comes up whenever an anarchism tries to build itself entirely out of secret operations. that turns the whole thing into a hierarchical activity putting one Social-Philosophical System over another Social-Philosophical System. this wouldn't be a problem if the SPS in question wasn't an anarchism, and was a Marxism or something. Che can try to make the case that a Marxist war on another country that only takes out the owners is justified, because he's not basing his entire theory on "hierarchy" and whether hierarchy is bad, he is basing the justification for wielding power on how important it is to realize a proletarian civilization. all Marxisms know on some level that they are an incomplete group of people competing against the rest of the world, and the concept of hierarchy isn't good for describing an all-directional conflict, but anarchisms somehow don't know that.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Any attempt of a population to govern a separate population is statist -> the major reason I think anarchism can't successfully stop "fascism" / {{TTS|WASP|Wasp}} swarms, at least without first turning into something that isn't anarchism in order to be effective. any time anarchism acts as a population to apply force on another population, it's already created a State. this isn't really a big problem to me but for some reason it does matter to anarchists.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Civilians are a social construct -> I think this is the major fallacy the deep end of anarchism believes. it's obvious to Marxists that there exists such a thing as civilians, and maybe even that the existence of civilians creates the boundaries between different countable Cultures and different parallel national histories. but it doesn't seem like anarchists find that obvious. they seem to easily devolve into a population of soldiers with no civilians out of some weird tendency to assume that anyone who is a civilian is being programmed not to resist The State — as if there is just one State and not one separate State for every population including some political parties or ethnicities inside national populations. newsflash, deep-end anarchists: you are The State. you've transformed your whole population into The State. the only question remaining is whether that's categorically bad, which admittedly is an open question.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S">secret operations -> the motif of underground operations attached to a particular SPS which may not be known to the whole SPS, and are hidden from the public until the "payload" of the operation comes out. secret operations which have happened within the past five years or so should not be coded as Items, regardless of ideology, although this is only a rule of thumb and any which are old enough to be considered historical and relatively well known to historical-materialist theorist types may be coded along with any generalizations or motifs. the nature of secret operations makes them incompatible with the task of creating a reliable source — either adding citations contributes to the secret operation getting caught, or the entry is too vague and unsourced to be considered useful information.

</li><li class="field_trotsky" value="618" data-dimension="S">secret operation attacks, random people harassed / secret operation made some attacks, random other people harassed by The State -> this is one of my biggest problems with making everything secret operations. the Soviet Union is widely known as a place where people were "reporting each other to stay out of trouble". but this is specifically as viewed from a Trotskyite perspective. if you were a Trotskyite, you'd be hiding out making trouble while The State hunts down random people they think are you, and indeed, perhaps some people are doing everything just not to get caught up in it. but in the end, the Trotskyites' efforts were terribly unsuccessful and resulted in widespread prejudices against Trotskyism for anyone who continued to pick up Marxism — under a decade of attacks resulted in prejudices lasting almost a century. as much as if you ask Trotsky all the secret operations were just a side thing to the effort to ostensibly create a better Leninism, no "other" Leninist ever sees it that way, and you don't even really see Western Marxists lining up with Trotsky raring to create a worldwide Marxism as if Western Marxism and Trotskyism are the same thing but in the end Menshevism isn't. everyone more or less thinks Trotskyites will hurt them. Existentialist-Structuralists and the bourgeoisie, maybe justifiably if Trotskyists knew anything. mainstream Marxist-Leninists are afraid of Trotskyists because they think there will be another secret operation to explode workers' states that basically dumps a cascade of racism on Third World countries for no reason. anarchists are afraid of Trotskyists because if they know anything they will build Hierarchy and The Bureaucracy (ironically). I think the history of secret operations as they have already happened shows that anarchism really isn't what anarchists think it is. no matter how nice or how violent anarchism is, it's always the formation of a new countable Culture, which is localized to not all the world's people and has to have a border because it has new internal content. you can theoretically tear open a revolution on any basis, not worrying about who is and isn't the proletariat, but if you do that you absolutely must know what its internal content is. you have to have rudimentary knowledge of the structure of the new society in order to stabilize the new forming entity which inevitably won't contain all the world's people and will inevitably have a border.

A) history stopped making sense, the future is unknown B) if we Freely Will our favorite future hard enough we can grab it, as long as we don't aim higher than the present state of things suggests C) when culture doesn't feel perfect we are so oppressed D) when the other half of non-capitalism fights back on our attacks to grab its freedom and its future we are so oppressed E) it's more important to endure through the period of chaos and destroy the enemy than to actually achieve any particular goal. if both groups of people totally obliterate each other maybe that's a victory. — I am so damn tired of this the more different places I see it. I do know it's not fascism, as that would have to be at least a little more premeditated and specific. I think this is just some weird phenomenon of societal mitosis where regardless of where classes are at populations simply go insane and rip themselves in two. they think they're achieving something by "doing something" and carrying out attacks, but they're actually going precisely nowhere. the crisis that populations go through is that people stop being able to expand into and over each other even though everyone is expanding, and the easiest, crudest way to resolve it is to just take the population and rip it anywhere so there is one more hard border between all the expansion, or at least so that there is no more expectation that if the new populations expand over each other there won't be war. it's like one of the best results of these "stress fractures" would be East Germany, which is what happens when the proletarian subpopulation or lowest-ranked people all end up on one side of the rift and the high-ranked people end up on the other. this + ??? = East Germany is indistinguishable from an anarchism

I think one potential problem with this is it threatens to label Deng Xiaoping Thought a named Anarchism; in practice it tends to run on things like regulating capitalism by finding specific bad actors and bringing down penalties on them while leaving everyone else "free" of state intervention to do capitalism. that doesn't feel like a correct categorization. I think it's fair to claim that anarchism doesn't truly exclude a State from forming in real life, and real-life Anarchisms probably will have States, but even so I don't think a huge party-nation with a parliament building sounds like an Anarchism. I definitely don't know enough anarchist theory to say why. all I know is from the angle of Marxism if you have chunk competition and elite winners of Careerism or investing who take charge of particular chunks, practically speaking those should be the Archons, and anything which is purposefully leaving Archons around materially couldn't construct a logically-coherent realizable named Anarchism as a theory, so it shouldn't make sense to call it anarchism right now.

I think that's a really difficult question. but the one thing I know is Epic-of-Gilgamesh type stories are a really bad way to go about it. if Sun Wukong wants to preserve his population... isn't that what every population wants? doesn't every single population not want to be subject to genocide? so, to cast the concept of preserving a population through the lens of an individual king wanting to stay in power just seems totally wrong. existence is not a king, but more like the republic itself. it doesn't make sense to characterize existence as a form of power that needs to be limited as much as something you want to take the locus of power out of and understand as a bunch of connected moving parts.

are there ways Existentialists and anarchists can try to refute this? of course. one of them is to say that war is good and Europe is thriving because World War I happened but it ended — the United States isn't thriving because no other empire was there to challenge it on the same level, so it stomped the other populations and wilfully started fighting itself. if you think this is an atrocious state of affairs, that's fair, but it does line up with the history of civilizations over the past century where a ton of conflicts have been between giant global powers over the top of buffer states, notably Poland and East Germany.

I kept thinking, the protagonist speaks like no actual human being and the characters don't talk about anything as if they were experiencing it as much as if everything was a bunch of floating propositions. but then I saw the game get polished from its earlier drafts to where it was a little more convincing. so maybe none of this is bad writing. maybe the game is planning some crazy twist where the things all the characters were saying at first weren't meant to be believable, and were all misdirects. maybe it's here to blow our minds by first setting up a strange, surreal, not-quite-believable setting of dragon capitalism and then the actual point is to shatter those expectations and show that genuinely none of it made any sense and here's the way dragons are supposed to live instead. the funny thing? if that was the point I'd probably like the story. you didn't portray civilizations as utopian, but you did metatransitional realism instead of just [[redlink - Wings of Fire|assuming]] dragon tribes are made of culture and Free Will. even if the depicted transition is effectively an Anarchism that is an achievement.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Some people's "own meaning" is Toryism / Given the ability to make their own meaning, some people will make Toryism -> early-existentialism is a tautology. after being alive for 30 years it kind of shocks me that nobody realizes this. to say people create their own meaning is to say each person builds ontologies of what is important. but people already do that whether early-existentialism ever existed or not, even if there is religion. early-existentialism just characterizes religion from a new angle: if nobody knows what the afterlife is, what will you create? and that leads to a plurality of religions all believing different things while in conflict as material groups of people. early-existentialism never answered the most important question for humanity, which is, what is the meaning of people chunk-competing? the meaning of individual existences is totally irrelevant compared with that.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S">freedom-hating atheist -> we need to talk about how bizarre it is that like, everyone has been programmed with "[[Ontology:Q3358|door theory]]" to the point that many center-Liberals actually believe that there are anti-religion people who actually genuinely hate religious people as living beings and don't want them to have any Freedom. that Richard Dawkins isn't just a xenophobe that should be tossed out of atheist circles, but is bad specifically because he denied people Individual Freedom Of Religion. this stupidity has made me hate Existentialism more than I dislike religion. like oh my hecks invent Christian Bolshevism if you really have to, just everyone please stop telling people that relationships are strictly voluntary. you should know by now that reactionaries reject marginalized groups of people because they think God declared them the enemy (the opposer) of Real Genuine Human Beings and they will get their reward from God for either braving through those people's disappearance or getting rid of them. cooperating with religious people is just dividing the United States into a big ragnarok battle between the god of reactionary-subpopulationals and the god of all the East-German types the reactionary-subpopulationals consider too weak or poor to "really" be White, plus the [[redlink - bourgeoisie|loudmouths]] that expel all those people and claim to speak for all society just because they're [[redlink - Careerists|the best at unrelated things]]. I think I went over the angry line. anyway, letting people believe [[Ontology:Q3776|all relationships are strictly voluntary]] and any religious people can Show The Door is very bad for the prospect of getting people to include marginalized groups of people in society without considering it a breach of their Freedom.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Prejudices are not obviously bad / It is not inherently obvious to everybody in an equal way through an equal path that prejudices are bad -> the claim that it is difficult to realize prejudices are bad, even if they are bad. most prejudices that center-Liberals would consider "good" are not obvious as prejudices unless you look closely, but they sure do exist. 
some Existentialist theories like poststructuralism and schizoanalysis appear to believe this. there are different ways to cast this proposition: MX) prejudices are not obviously bad, so it is not possible to simply convince everyone prejudices being bad is obvious and have that be the truth because it will never be obvious. you need to convince people of something that actually includes prejudices being impossible to operate on directly. W) prejudices are not obviously bad, so we all need to force each other to question prejudices and force everyone to believe prejudices are bad no matter how much effort it takes.

</li><li class="field_geo" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Scientifically accurate theories can be explained to a child / up-goer five proposition (coherence of scientific theories) -> there's a much better case for this one. the quicker you can explain something to a ten-year-old the less likely it is that science genuinely doesn't know what's going on with the thing in practice. the longer it takes to give a singular explanation of something to an 18-year-old the more likely it is that either science doesn't actually have a good model of the phenomenon or the scientist doesn't understand the current models. 
I think this proposition is very illuminating when it comes to describing a correct Marxism and the way correct Marxisms emerge in the processes of history. like, try to explain schizoanalysis to a child. so, Timmy, the reason people don't unify into a single country is stereotypes, but when people break out of stereotypes, they have to join together around a specific required culture anyway, which is not stereotypes, and doesn't mean the bigger country assimilating people into it is okay, because the bigger country is based on Liberalism, which is supposed to be anarchism but isn't, because the greedy expansion people invented big business and turned everyone into wage slaves, but people turning away from all billionaires isn't stereotypes because they all believe the same Ideals so that means they chose to be that way. no, Timmy, Ideals aren't culture. I know Chinese people believe in Confucianism sometimes and that's technically culture and it's also a conscious choice but you see it's not Ideals because it's not inside individuals even though individuals ultimately made it up. yes, Power Rangers believe in Ideals. yes, [https://zootopia.fandom.com/wiki/Judy_Hopps Judy Hopps] believes in Ideals. no, the herbivore population doesn't join together around Ideals and become a Culture. stereotypes are not Ideals, Timmy. oh. oh no... you'll have to repeat that. "Reshiram and Zekrom are truth and ideals but if you have too much Ideals the society blows up so they have to be balanced but truth is also Ideals so the good Ideals never win out". Timmy. I am having a crisis. I don't know if I can believe in anarchism any more.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">All academic-level theories are ideological / Any academic-level theory is ideological -> the claim that Existentialist-Structuralist periods and basically all of traditional philosophy along with such things as Marxism are ideologies according to a particular definition, although anything that can be taught in a fifth-grade textbook without leaving a lot of questions might not be. if this claim is true, then it would be impossible to claim that a textbook based on insights found in critical race theory (not to say such a thing literally exists, but hypothetically) is non-ideological. if this claim is false, then it could be that a Trotskyist could write textbooks based on insights from Trotskyism and Tories wouldn't even notice that there was Leninism in their textbooks and would just nod and say "that's probably correct".
</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Critical race theory is an ideology -> although people aren't going to like it, as far as I can tell this is technically true because the theory contains assumptions. theories of ethics are ideological, and theories that say society should be fixed one way instead of another are ideological. this doesn't make them bad, but it does make them ideology. this is an unfortunate thing to combine with the fact everyone believes in Existentialism and the ability for anyone to choose to [[Ontology:Q3776|walk away from anything that is an ideology]]. get rid of Existentialism, and the problem is solved.
</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Liberal-republicanism is postmodern / George Washington was a postmodernist -> everybody who isn't already a Marxist would find this really confusing. but here's the thing. if Liberalism is designed to be all political systems, it is definitionally postmodern. people think that there was a particular era of "modernism" and then there was "postmodernism", because they're looking at culture and trying to define kinds of visual expression that they then try to connect back to deeper processes, but they've greatly underestimated how soon postmodernism actually starts within philosophy or politics. postmodernism begins in at least 1776. maybe earlier. believing Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson could exist and get along in the same country is the loose prototype of postmodern philosophies. the general cause of postmodern culture is populations sharding into millions of separate population-societies that all operate separately, and 1776 is about when it begins.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">A nation of ideas is definitionally an empire -> takes a bit to explain. a nation must be made of structure; the subpopulations inside a nation must be connected somehow to actually produce a combined population instead of literally producing two or more populations. a person eats and occupies space. any particular chunk of socially-connected people eats and occupies space. conflicts over the ability to eat and occupy space result in violence. The State mediates conflicts over the ability of social chunks to eat and occupy space. when Liberal-republican "democracy" is created the representatives of different chunks all contribute to creating The State, although the representatives do not equal The People. what this means practically is chunks of people compete for the right to submit the set of ideas that will rule everyone. but even if representatives were perfect reflections, The People don't really choose what sets of ideas they believe as individuals, they determine them as whole groups that already enforce group ideas on all their individuals. there is something like a tiny undemocratic "republic" inside groups of people before there is any government at all, or even any capitalists — essentially, The Spanishness Office. (the big mistake people make is less thinking it exists at all than thinking it's controllable.) as a result, the Spaniards Machine sputters along spitting out both what people are going to believe and who people's representatives will be, designing and placing people to obey it while oppressing them at the same time; there isn't even really any "manufacturing consent" step in the middle where people choose to be oppressed, the reason people support bad things is they're literally already part of them from the beginning, before they're educated, before anything. ISAs are the societies while The State is their apparatus. anyway. chunks of people which already contain Spaniards Machines generate representatives that represent the Spaniards Machine, the Social-Philosophical System. this leads to Social-Philosophical Systems themselves pushing each other back and forth fighting over parliament (hegemony politics), and fighting over the country. each Spaniards Machine is a tiny nation of ideas already, even if it may also have racist ideas that it is a superior cluster of White people, or whatever. this means when they fight each other over a republic, and inevitably play hegemony politics of "this is a rust country now", "this is a sky country now and all the rust people have to obey sky rules continuously spat out every day by the sky-colored Spaniards Machine", all they can practically achieve is creating a population-to-population hierarchy of one Spaniards Machine directly ruling the other.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">"strategic essentialism is an anti-essentialist act" [https://newdiscourses.com/tftw-strategic-essentialism/] -> what? I wish academics would like, speak in logically-coherent sentences. it doesn't matter what words you use but please use them to convey concepts that make any logical sense and are at all comprehensible. 
like let's break this statement down. what is essentialism? it's enforcing particular mandatory characteristics on something that are claimed to be in it from the dawn of time. what's strategic essentialism? it's creating people who must unite around a specific definition of what they are. now, how can that be anti-essentialist? whether it's anti-essentialist has nothing to do with whether it's good or bad, it can be good either way. why argue that it's anti-essentialist? what does that get anyone? 
this is the shovel dream of Existentialism being a method of physically organizing individuals into identity groups. Existentialism is partly a theory that people can only be arranged by whether arbitrary tribes of people like each other and want to be friends or want to shatter apart and fight each other at which point you can't keep them together — very bad theory for solving racism, as it horribly contradicts itself when it comes time to force racists to be friends with Black people that they utterly hate and want Freedom from. this causes people to think of everything in terms of prejudice and essentializing people into stereotypes, and to make up weird statements like grouping people into a movement being a way to fight against The Stereotypers, therefore it's "anti-essentialist", even though it's rather literally not. it's as essentialist as Stalin saying Georgians have to do specific plans as Georgia and sending it to the several people making up Stalin's government to be stamped. which is forbidden as evil Totalization because Communists are The Stereotypers against The Nice People in the United States who are bourgeoisie. please, Existentialists, please be intellectually honest for once. it's exhausting to have to solve everything you say like a math problem.

</li><li class="field_geo" value="618" data-dimension="F2">The universe is fundamentally made of information -> this is almost demonstrably false. silly argument against it: if that were true, there would be no difference between physical objects and Digimon, and we would have to seriously ask ourselves why you can't create an Agumon or a simulated coffee machine on a computer and then print the simulated coffee machine into the real world as data without having to copy every piece of the coffee machine using things that already exist inside the real world. I saw this claim in <cite>Existential Physics</cite> that you couldn't simulate a human mind without creating a human mind, and by extension you couldn't duplicate a human mind anywhere else without creating a second individual. the thing nobody realizes is that this is also true of a coffee machine. the most accurate model of how a coffee machine functions would be a coffee machine, in the sense the most accurate model of an Agumon would be a living creature. but you cannot shift a simulated coffee machine into reality without manually duplicating the coffee machine, any more than you can the Agumon. what this means is there is actual physical stuff in the universe between information. you can call every arrangement of things information but that information is always made of stuff. the crux of general relativity is that things are made of stuff. that's why everything can be a reference frame. because there are objects, and all the interesting stuff can only be seen while standing on them. some of the objects are really small and constantly re-divide themselves, because they're hardly big enough to even hold together, and that's okay, because we still see the interactions they create clearly enough that we can stand on them and call them objects. then more interactions and information happen between atoms, and so forth.

entanglement is one of the only exceptions, but entanglement is just basically what happens when you try to measure the color that each of the quarks is pointing. they are definitely pointing one of the three colors, but the color force is going so fast you never know which quark has which one of them. the outside observation and inside state are wildly out of sync. the only thing you know is the direction of each quark depends on the other two. [https://modern-physics.org/quantum-entanglement-in-qcd/ that's entanglement]. the only thing that makes it confusing is that it can operate on strangely large scales for a process that is supposed to be really small.

"Filament of people conquer space and control it" is one of the only things that's worth anything. it solves great abuses, after also having created them. how different are collections of workers serving built-up Audiences from collections of lab cats? how do we know when a protest is meaningful versus when people are just chunk-competing over an area meaninglessly and different people controlling it won't actually make anything change?

I think it is true that ontologies can always make errors, and we need the ability to pick incorrect ontologies apart to properly investigate the world and learn what is accurate in a scientific sense. but I have never really liked the notion that signs are an inherent form of power. it takes some unpacking. I have argued that Lacanian discipline is bogus because people can oppressively teach each other the wrong things. but is that all because of signs, rather than people? I'm not sure I'd say that. my thoughts right now are, the video I watched said that letting signs be is allowing metaphysical divisions of reality into arbitrary elements. which I half agree with. but then it said that the notion of breaking up sign monopolies is defeating metaphysics. and I feel like there's an error there. whenever we try to think that power is a deliberate thing somebody grabs and choppify things or push individuals back to stop power grabs and push the world into "balance", I feel like that's the moment we truly construct metaphysics. metaphysics lies not in the construction of specific categories but in the sheer false idea the world can be in perfect balance when it is always growing and changing. modern metaphysics is an empty vessel. a perfectly-balanced wheel of constantly-changing empty vessels that can grow and change and deconstruct themselves but are always in conflict, always hating each other, always trying to smash each other to break each other's power and then accusing each other of being the real power-grabbers. that's what metaphysics is now, not the content.

I wouldn't say it's false, it's probably true, but oh boy it's not my favorite. sure, we need to be aware of the plurality of philosophies each perceiving the world through themselves. but I think meta-philosophy is totally possible. I think it's totally possible to step outside philosophies for a moment to actually compare them and ask where they came from. we will easily make errors in the way we do it, but I don't think all philosophy is doomed to be fully locked inside models and effectively inside prejudices such that it is constantly eating itself. I think people primarily think it is because they do not have consciousness of the material phenomena of graph struggle and chunk competition. if they did, they'd realize how silly this all is. they'd go, oh god, why were we promoting philosophies that ask everyone to fight and kill each other as nicely as possible instead of asking how to turn around and become the puppetmasters of chunk competition. why were we doing any of this when we could have stopped what generates prejudice at the source.
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Human language is rooted in Lived Experiences / "language is rooted in human experience and relationships" -> no. no. human language is rooted in the fact humans belong to social networks. graphs. language has networks and humans have networks and when you are part of a sea of free-floating entities you must physically obtain information about that system while inside it. that is Einstein's theory of relativity. a camera can do relativity just by being physical and being part of the world as it takes a picture. it doesn't have much to do with human "experience". we could all be philosophical zombies and still have language. in certain limited senses, The Subject is a machine and relativity is a piece of the machine.

Adventure Time giving its moments to BMO and Ice King near the end, good. Angry Birds movie suggesting that success is purely about trying hard, bad. it's like, the reason so many authors are bad at balancing things correctly is our aversion to historical materialism and the notion that history is based on physics and you get particular paths through understanding each kind of physics.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Science turns The Subject into an object but philosophy doesn't -> I genuinely don't think this is true. I really feel like philosophy does turn Subjects into objects if it's doing its job. what does it mean to turn something into an object? it means studying the pieces or processes that compose it and comprehending it as a physical thing. reductionism in the ontology sense: reducing things into a graph of sign equations, an ontology which is plural and not definitive but may go part of the way to explaining how something works.
</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Humanist theories squash The Subject under prejudice / Subject theories are bad because they do too much prejudiced Subject-squashing / Humanist obsession with The Subject is bad because it has too many prejudices -> not making this up, really saw this one. possibly the most Existentialist criticism of Existentialism that I've ever seen. why does nobody ever ever ask if theories centered around prejudice are a prejudice? anyway. I think this highlights some kind of major division inside Existentialism. should I divide Existentialism into humanist periods and... prejudice-obsessed periods?? I still don't quite understand. I study and read and study and read and I still never understand what's going on. trying to understand where the hell these modern prejudice philosophies come from feels like Simon researching the ice crown and turning into an idiot and being stuck there forever.

I feel like those three things kind of merge together the way draconic creatures merge together and turn into one big umbrella of dragons. as for the fact Ice King kidnaps princesses... no comment. that's become associated with the more atheist yet unserious definition of mountain sages, but yeah, no comment. this is more about the archeology and immortality stuff.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The main problem with social structures is people are bad at results / Capitalism sucks because people are bad at doing things / Bureaucracy is maddening because people are bad at doing things -> this one needs a little explaining but is very important. ever felt when going through some kind of paperwork process that nothing makes sense, the whole thing is undesigned, and everything is all just a bunch of drifting humans going in every direction that have no idea what they're doing or how to do what you need them to do? that may be literally what's happening. there is a conflict between the fact we need to rely on other people to do things, materially, not just because we "desire things in the Other" psychologically, but because we really can't do everything ourselves and other people really have to do it, this and the fact that in reality other people are just people and often have trouble actually doing the things we need them to do. every time any individual or group of people ever tries to do anything ever there is a complicated tug-of-war between whether it's worse to take on too much ourselves and not trust anyone, or worse to trust other people who may be too imperfect to actually do what we need them to. practically no period of Existentialism ever gets this concept right. it always seems to devolve into these really weird ego-based statements that "you can't rely on others in order to function and grow as you, you have to trust others in order to function and grow as you, impossible contradictions always totally make sense if everybody just wills them to enough". that is not an answer. that is not a model. that is a bunch of mystical nonsense. individual psychology does not get us to dipsychology.

I never see people consciously listing out all the internal real-world signifiers that they think utopia actually means. the... bisimilarands? the analogy targets? the Z Items to the S Items, anyway. one possible "bisimilarand" is addiction. one is imperialism, as shown in the Winter King episode: a population that oppresses another has a much easier time. one is national independence: it is easy to accuse postcolonial Anarchists of "utopia", but they really just want some kind of independent population. all of these "bisimilarands" are very different, and which one you think of is based on your model of society, your social-political-economic ideology. the problem happens when people assume a particular pathway of signifier-bisimilarand-mechanics simply is what something is across fiction and mythology and real life. in one sense, fiction is how we all share and agree on misinformation without realizing that's what we're doing. and this is really popular for Existentialists to do. to assume that particular works of fiction are portraying such things as The Subject exactly the way they work in real life, when necessarily they all come from generalizations and assumptions. fiction argues about "unending happiness". but such a thing is complete nonsense. like, so nonsensical that even speaking of it hypothetically is hard because you have to suspend several things about reality and effectively make up fake prejudices about which real-world things you don't believe in. so what is fiction really arguing about if the thing it's arguing about doesn't exist? it's arguing about prejudices and which sets of prejudices people think are the better prejudices when literally speaking all of them are wrong.

I think by any reasonable definition, every single time Liberalism or capitalism makes people chop off part of themselves and fit into it is the same as symbolic castration. I think he is complaining about his own system. which is kind of funny — Žižek is a Zinovievist Trotskyite, while one of Trotsky's biggest problems was projecting onto Stalin the things that Trotsky does, effectively making "Leninism" into this weird never-ending cycle of deciding you don't like Leninism and exploding it to create Leninism that somebody else inside it then explodes again.

</li><li class="field_ML" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The world goes on after any particular character narrative -> beautiful trope but has some nasty implications when you ask what influenced it. I like the authenticity of Adventure Time having historical periods that don't have to connect to each other, and a potentially infinite number of historical periods; there's a great poetry to that at the same time there's a certain kind of realism. what I don't like is how it comes down into any particular set of present events. it makes it feel like it's unimportant to have morality because if having patience and surviving things can fix anything, why bother to get other people to be moral instead of holing up in an ice cocoon? you can say that it's possible to accept just anything that happens because you can't control it, but there are some things that really are bad. people being isolated from each other like Simon and Betty really is bad. the collapse of society into warring states or world war really is bad because it doesn't stop the same cycle from happening again. and just walking away from the notion that some things really are bad feels like abdicating the responsibility to make history go the right way.

Lacanianism says we cause trouble for each other because we individually have fake ideas about reality that need to be cut off. symbolic castration / discipline. schizoanalysis basically says that democulture is the mechanism that cuts off fake ideas and is the rationale for Liberal republics. postcolonial theories say everything is due to prejudices. Lacanianism is talking about prejudices too. it's saying all our fake ideas about reality and refusals to compromise are prejudices. that's what it's really doing. and I hate it. because it diminishes the reality of beliefs and philosophies as actual matters of identity and experience that people truly live their lives by, kinda treating people as mere instruments in a way, mere instruments of building an empire of people who miraculously guess the correct way to behave for people to get along, and haven't even thought it through to figure it out, who have all just been beaten into place like cattle. all the individuals or countable Cultures or ideologies are the instruments and the Liberal republic experts just own them all, like a capitalist owns a group of workers and makes them behave a certain way for their place of work to exist. if the Existentialist-Structuralist tradition were true then Liberalism would be a scam, and it would be a scam. it's a lot better for everyone in it if it's not true, because then nobody can come label them an evil conspiracy to turn countries into oligarchy. when you think about it, there's a fine line between scams and incorrect theories of society. if people don't know they can be forgiven, but if they do know they're labeled conspirators, con men, or any number of uglier names.

Trotsky violently attacked a republic due to his extreme views. I mean, what else do you term an assassination? anybody who doesn't realize hegemony politics currently exists (even if it's not a good thing) and treat it as if it exists is just, hanging out feeling like they owe nothing to a population continuing to exist and it's okay to let every other individual die except maybe a couple friendly businesses they buy things from if current policies benefit their own business. when you refuse to play "team sports" whole nationalities and ethnicities of people cease to be because all the people in them scatter to different capitalist cities. only a few things are more prejudiced than that. every population is based on a molecularized yet competitive process of people building populational structures through free association that at times harm each other and exist in mutual exclusion. you can't just "criticize" these without understanding their physical interaction and the fact that some of them have to be treated as correct and some as incorrect. correct structures bring down regulations on incorrect structures. this is the basis of Liberal democracy.

(I think I already know what the Existentialists will say. they'll try to claim I'm turning this into a case of "Rudolph was useful". but it's not me doing it. it's the fact people are physical and there are real solutions to real material problems below the level of "discovering better culture". I also know why people make this error. they can't see that any nice group of friends is just a graph and any case of "cultural exchange" is just making the graph bigger. sometimes bigger graphs become easier to operate without becoming more efficient, but they also become more capable of oppressing anybody who actually believes in improving the structure of the graphs. really unfortunate when it comes to worldwide shipping and climate change.)

== MDem SSR: 19000 - 20000 ==

This range is reserved for MDem book drafts which prove to be notable in light of each other and explaining previous texts. However, it does not really make sense to give entries in this range permanent identifiers until the book is finished to some satisfactory extent of printing a few for actual "use". The new convention for SSR entries is to simply file the pages to be considered SSR Items under thesis portals in the {{TTS|html=abbr|tts=User|U:}} or {{TTS|html=abbr|tts=Philosophical Research|R:}} namespaces and not to use the {{TTS|html=abbr|tts=Ontology:Q...|E:Q...}} namespace until the work is actually finished (although making redirects to the thesis portal using {{TTS|html=abbr|tts=Ontology:Eszett...|E:ẞ...}} is okay). The entries are now being managed on [[:Category:MDem SSR|MDem SSR]].

After this point, entries may be created in any order without worrying what number they are; making entries on specific meaningful numbers is encouraged but absolutely not required. To keep track of already taken numbers, you may use [[:Category:Ontology_entries_by_number]].

== Early versions ==

Although I tried not to change the formatting of this page much from start to finish, it has gone through a few formatting versions.

* Late into the creation of this page, the page text got too long to properly submit through the form. The pre-division version, notably containing a Lexemes prototype and first example data table, is [[Special:PermanentLink/6785|here]].
* Early on there was a Property brainstorm, which is now at [[Philosophical Research:Properties/Numeric]].

== Lexeme ==

Lexemes tie together unique sets of inflections or conjugations, and sets of definitions. See [[User:Reversedragon/FirstNineThousand/inflections|here]] for a chart of inflected forms for each of these terms 
In practice, many of these will end up comically resembling some sort of "Devil's dictionary" with shocking contrasts between everyday usages and specific usages.

I had a hard time naming this thing because for the longest time it didn't even make sense. "so anarchism has been turning into... an-... a-culture-ism? what even is this?"

Existentialism is in general a group of theories that ignores democracy per se and by going on and on about Free Will and The Subject tries to find the best way to invent democulture. queer theory is infamous in Tory settlements for constantly attributing the "institutional power" of homophobia and transphobia to the absence of democulture in "institutions".

"relativistic" in the sense of the universe having no center and all events having to travel at or below the speed of light in space and time to hit other objects; an object in motion not affected by another object keeps independently flying along "relativistically". RDem theories seem like trouble because they seem to bake in war and authoritarian attacks over the top of other populations after leaving no physical method to preemptively influence decisions and prevent bad decisions.

Prejudice Existentialism is purely focused on the act of constantly smashing signs in the hope that depriving people of any notion of facts or truth will lead to everyone perceiving reality correctly, although paradoxically Prejudice Existentialists typically claim that it is impossible to see reality through anything but signs and ontological models, which should make their task literally impossible to achieve for even a second. a rather intellectually dishonest field of philosophy in my opinion. if it were true that it is potentially a prejudice to call basically anything a fact, it would also be true that reality is nothing more than a bloody chunk war where whoever wins is automatically correct for the rest of history. Prejudice Existentialists have no way to actually disprove that claim, so they just resort to saying that acknowledging it to be true is Evil and equivocating everything else to be equally true is Good. I really hate the notion that morality is the only thing that's true. because first of all, how do you even know if morality is correct or real if nothing else is, how can you use it as your grounding? the problem they always run into in real life is that people all over the real world reject morality, and then when they point out prejudice as the fundamental sin that is the most obvious thing that makes any statement wrong nobody actually listens or cares. how do they know that thinking anybody cares about the concept of "prejudice" isn't a prejudice that makes their own theory obsolete?

Lenin's filter is the process of taking a coarse movement of people and building up correct answers, procedures, strategies, and movement shapes such that the movement improves itself and becomes a party-nation. according to some Maoists, the process of operating Lenin's filter is synonymous with the party itself, and I'd say that is broadly correct but I still prefer to label a filter as the process that creates the party and the Bauplan as the shape of the party-nation

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="329" data-dimension="L">Lattice model / The Lattice -> this is either MDem's filter or at least another mathematical transform very adjacent to filters. it's the process of taking isolated islands and linking them, going through a "search for quantum lions and avoid quantum leopards" process until people aren't isolated and are safe from being surrounded by threats. this concept can apply to many different scales from very small ones to very large ones, such it could be used to diagram going from isolated individuals all the way up to a Communist International. why is it a lattice? because it's a graph of nodes, and before meta-Marxism the idea of using graph theory to describe movements wasn't heard of as far as I know. final note: the Lattice model is different from Rhizome in that it explicitly acknowledges the possibility of many tiny plural "rhizomes" and that as separate objects they may not inherently want to come together. it's also different in that it recognizes that every tiny "rhizome" can be a different Social-Philosophical System, only deciding where to go based on what it actually believes and in no way magnetically pulled toward anything without deliberately following the Lattice model as a guide.

Alfred Jarry called it 'pataphysics, I just call it "meta-ontology". in a sense, it's like the SCP wiki has to use a wrong definition because the Foundation is all about containing things and keeping things normal, but 'pataphysics is actually about using such insane strategies to solve things it would go against the Foundation's typical protocols.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="699" data-dimension="L">spaghetti / spaghetti code / ontological spaghetti -> literal food; difficult to understand code; completely meaningless-sounding plate of unfamiliar philosophy words that never seems to get easier to understand (meta-Marxist term first used to mock Lacanianism). similar to "word salad", but with the difference that it strongly appears to actually mean something due to its proper lexical structure of signs and statements until the points at which all the self-referentiality and insular forms of meaning render it impossible to actually comprehend or explain to anybody. ontological spaghetti is twisted and woven into a neat yet unexplainable structure just like spaghetti noodles.

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="700" data-dimension="L">narrative -> history; legend; fantasy book; of or relating to dramatization techniques; slanted sociophilosophy; fascist rhetoric; single official record of history everybody is fighting over; etc. this word is an adventure in itself

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="703" data-dimension="L">dragon -> like lions these creatures have multiple readings as monsters or as strong beings of courage. monster; courage; Satanic anathema; word reused for arbitrary new creatures; plurality, diversity, outright used in scheme of Media Representation (<cite>Dragon Masters</cite>)

</li><li class="field_horror" value="707" data-dimension="L">villain -> driving arts experts crazy by including descriptivist accounts of fans downgrading villains to antagonists and explaining the hell out of them. I love it because as much as some people are total beginners at writing, it does show they're thinking about things and questioning the assumptions of real or fictional societies
</li><li class="field_horror" value="708" data-dimension="L">immortality -> why is this word 2/3 of the time a backdoor to sneak Buddhism and its model of the individual into Christian or progressive-philosophical discourse. the moment before we discuss fiction people have ordinary comprehensible definitions of what life and death are. the moment we start talking about "immortality" suddenly everyone on earth believes in Buddhism and thinks life and death are each totally different things from what they usually are.
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="709" data-dimension="L">immortal -> separate Lexeme which contains the concept in Buddhism sloppily called this when it's something different

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="710" data-dimension="L">verisimilitude / verisimilitudinous / verisimilar -> very relevant when analyzing fiction. why are Marxist analyses of fiction possible when in theory it should be that fiction can be anything at all and a great number of authors do not know anything about Marxism? because of verisimilitude. people create fictional ontologies by superficially copying real-life ontologies, which can amusingly result in fiction containing ontologies that are specifically realistic enough they provide for the possibility of Bolshevism.

[https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue/comments/gi29qv/tomt_whats_the_name_of_the_term_when_an_author/] can turn into Calvinball if done really well to continuously expand mistakes into believable lore; can turn into a scottcon if done badly.

== Unsorted Lexemes ==

* egoism
* individualism
* meta-ontologically sound / meta-ontological soundness -> a statement is meta-ontologically sound when it would be recognized as true by anyone in any ideological faction or interest-having population of people which has a high school education and does not believe blatantly false statements. those are a little hard to find for Toryism, of course, but educated Tories do exist; they're a bit scary because they see all the evidence that progressives point to without being able to deny it, and then spin that factual information as bad to protect some pre-defined set of interests like "my family" or "my socially-linked several-state-sized reactionary subpopulation of White people". the good news is that a lot of statements by Tories fail to be meta-ontologically sound even if they're based on lists of true facts because there are reasons they blatantly cannot be recognized as true by other ideologies.
* slider-speak -> this didn't have its own term in MDem drafts until very very recently. for a while I called it generalized alchemy, or metaphysics, or mistaking the ability to create adjectives for reality. I still think those all fit fine. but we need to really stop and characterize this thing at length so we genuinely see how weird it is.
* stealth activism -> this is a totally stupid term for a reasonable thing. the definition I heard almost reduced it down to taking over structures and Each Individual In Parallel Culturing Better. which is... very Gramscian. it may be necessary and even effective but my one issue is I wish nobody would use the word activism for it. it's like. sure, you can do that. but there eventually comes a point where you're preserving particular oppressive countable Cultures for the hell of it and committing to take the steering wheel of the oppression bus and run it a little less bad, while — here is the real problem that overshadows any other concern — you're part of an overall national population which by its own existence justifies torching other people-groups in an act of self-defense murder just because the national population exists. self-defense genocide exists now. (even though it did exist in 1800, I know.) do you know what kind of atom-thick hair edge Gramscianism is operating on? do people even know that. one day you can be doing ""stealth activism"" and the next day the people you barely shifted over to win one issue could be torching you too, because two different swaths of stealth-activists for different issues ended up on different sides of the Torching Unamericans divide where only so many people fit in the core group of people truly allowed to live. as time goes on I increasingly feel like Gramscianism is an elite ideology and it's not really for the people who actually get hurt by Toryism or "fascism". why do you need Gramscianism if you already fit into institutions well enough to infiltrate them?
* cultural context -> this phrase kills me because I feel like it is used for ten different things and every time people say it they're using it to get out of distinguishing those things from each other. Foucault used it to describe a stage of development of class society, with actual structures and territory-owners. a Deltarune video I listened to used it to describe people living in one US state instead of another, literally just the geographical region people live in and the weather and climate they had experiences about. see why it's not actually a very clear thing? people are conditioned to think populations are made out of culture and culture can easily be used to distinguish populations but then when they describe what culture is they're often describing things that come almost strictly before culture per-se.
* military-cultural complex -> this is what has existed since the Cold War. this is what I have been trying to get at with descriptions of all socially-linked groups of people generating The State to protect the sheer existence of their socially-linked group of friends.
* Herculean task
* Sisyphean task
* Minosian task -> a task so bad you lock it away
* Promethean task -> "something you know is the right thing to do but you still get punished for it"
* Odyssean task -> task that "should have been simple but everything goes wrong in the worst ways making it insanely long"
* Orphean task -> when you are doomed to fail for the same reasons you are desperate to succeed
* solidarity -> the more I read about this word the more it sounds to me like it's a question rather than an answer. it began around the time of the French Revolution but every single person trying to create a new theory of how to build society defined it a bit differently. I really think solidarity is just a word more than it's a concept. to actually achieve proletarian solidarity you need to define new much more specific concepts like filtration
* recursion -> fractal process of some kind; programming usage; specific cybernetics use
* world party -> pros of Bordigism: actually talks about patterns of party operation which are oddly specific. cons of Bordigism: I don't have the slightest idea what any of these things are.
* essentialism
* anti-essentialism -> one of the better theories for understanding human individuals themselves rather than whole populations
* strategic essentialism -> a particular concept of benign nationalism used in context of national independence from global empire, as in India. I am trying so hard not to say the words "culture", "colonial", or "postcolonial" because I feel like that cluster of concepts has muddied up absolutely everything and made every single struggle people are trying to get through across the world harder. why did we all decide people were made of culture rather than [[redlink - Hyper-Materialism|being made of people and populations]]. why did we do that.
* strategic anti-essentialism -> George Lipsitz (b.1947). the act of resisting membership in a particular restrictive Social-Philosophical System of culture by expressing the practices of a different Social-Graph System of culture. see: Satanism and Gnosticism, wiccans and pagan revival, schizoanalysis, United States otaku.
* agent -> already used to describe the concept of Group Subjects in slightly obscure biology/ecology research
* solidarity -> original definition of Third World proletarian subpopulations standing together against all owning classes; vulgarized definition where it has been co-opted into the entirely different idea of Existentialist individuals throughout multiple First World countries standing together because they are The Subject. this word is like, the day that Marxism absolutely died because Marxists ceased being aware that the First World was weaponizing the notions of "empathy" and "community" to defend all scales of chunk competition and crush empathy, community, and solidarity alike.
* denial of coloniality -> way better phrasing than trying to turn every word for empire into a word for prejudices in people's heads
* The West -> it's always been really weird to me people say this. it always weirdly feels as if people passively acknowledge the existence of a British Empire after the British Empire.
* The East
* Filamentocracy -> add to "Filament"
** democulture is the class ideology of Filamentocracy. that's just it. that's why people believe in democulture and Goku's filter
* intersubjectivity
* Market Society -> this came up in MDem v4.3 and kind of fell off as a major topic although it very much stayed a term. near synonym for primitive Existentialism but focuses more on the notion of isolation. coined to mock the term "market economy" by pointing out what economies really are: society itself. socioeconomies.
* [S2] Kirby is a metaphor for humanity / Kirby is the quintessential Subject -> really funny copypasta [https://www.reddit.com/r/copypasta/comments/afr9xc/kirby_is_a_metaphor_for_humanity/] [https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue/comments/gi29qv/tomt_whats_the_name_of_the_term_when_an_author/] <s>somebody seems to have dreamed up while up into the morning unable to sleep, I mean that's my injection of my own experience but yeah.</s> from a Polygon video? I was just trying to find the definition of "bookman's bluff" and here we are
* free-floating -> add to "free"; very similar usage to an object being "knocked free" or "wrested free"
* constructive process -> related to "construct" as is also used as a verb
* destructive process
* nationogenesis -> the slow or quick assembly of individuals within an existing national population into a new nation and spatially-unique realized Bauplan. the reason this "needed" a new word is that it can happen with people of the same ethnic group and religion and who are overall seemingly the same group of people in every way, yet who spontaneously begin drifting into totally new groups of people thanks to the news station they listen to, their incomplete understanding of Leninism, or some other factor that would be unexpected to most people
* postification / post- / post-ify -> not used many times in v5.2 in favor of returning to plainer language, but the concept is always there in basically every chapter
* physics as equalling factical systems; physics as relativistic causality exchange
* thought / think -> logical process Lexeme
* modal realism: all hypothetically possible worlds are technically real. David Lewis.
* economy / socioeconomy
* socioeconomy, sociophilosophy, socioempire, sociocurrency
* rival / rivalrous -> I forget why I added this. it had something to do with Creative Commons and "non-rivalrous goods" and some killer analogy I'd gotten from that vaguely related to chunk competition or graph economics but I forget the exact connection I made. I think it was something like, when everyone lives in rivalrous houses, and has to pay for them with rivalrous jobs, and it's so easy to totally slip past anyone else's attention because people have to "spend" their attention on one thing or another, it's hard for anything to really actually be non-rivalrous. populations are rivalrous, countable Cultures are rivalrous, physical individuals are rivalrous. you have to overcome all of that just to create a non-rivalrous good

Valenoern: don't throw away your friends

Part of thesis portal [[User:Valenoern/Asekai|{{TTS|tts=User:vAllen-earn/essek-I|User:Valenoern/Asekai}}]].

This is a severely unfinished game that in some senses was never started; there had been a couple of small demos for partial features, but to be perfectly honest, it never had any genuine development. Posting anything about it here may be a weird thing to do, but I am not worried. Either the project will get finished one day or none of this actually matters.

Digimon charts are a good design, because they vaguely get at the idea of great psychological depth within a single individual, even if the methods of getting each form can be a little random against the clear thematic concepts of the forms.

Valenoern: wyvernisation

{{BopCSS}}
I ([[User:Reversedragon|R.D.]]) am a bit obsessive about numbers. I had a problem with the idea of Items having small numbers that at the same time were arbitrary. What would be number 10?? What would be number 1?? 
I considered making all the entries in this wiki take their IDs from the timestamp they were created at, but when Wikibase had no clear way of doing that and it was already installed, I decided it would be easier to do this instead: map out the first 3000-9000 Item entries to the best numbers I can think of, and then stop worrying. A little later, I'd go a step further and scrap Wikibase to make editing individual Items and downloading them as text files particularly easy in all browsers, and allow for Item identifiers to be as pronounceable as possible thanks to the ability to add commas or redirects inside the same namespace.

This is the first prototype of every Item in order. After this, I began to create specific [[Philosophical Research:Ontology namespace|"Ontology" Categories]] for particular fields and media series, and to create [[Help:Hue lists|hue list templates]] to more consistently display the same proposed Item across pages. This page will not use any of the later html-saving templates in order to preserve a more basic and manual version of the [[Help:Hue lists|hue list]] markup. However, some especially verbose sections of chapters, episodes, short stories, etc. have been moved to Ontology pages to make the list easier to navigate.

You should be warned that there may be a lot of particular opinions on this page. Whenever I wrote any idea down I poured out the first thoughts that came to my mind on it. I had no intention that any of these first-thoughts would be a permanent part of any of the Item pages that would not change. Some of them were meant as loose guidelines for further examining each thing and collecting research or analyses of them on their pages in a general way, but only really as a starting place. I've always had the rule that [[redlink|"angry" does not belong on Item pages]], thus I sometimes absolutely went off here to avoid it going there. Also, you are encouraged to create alternate prototype pages scrawled on Category pages or [[:User Spaces for Special Research|in connection with other thesis portals]] — the only major rules are that all prototype notes should be archived on an early revision of their corresponding Item page (whether they are deleted or superseded in later revisions, which is fully expected), and that when somebody actually establishes a block of useful concepts within the Ontology namespace you must build off what is already there while moving existing Items only when there is some relatively important reason another Item should be using that number. If an Item is on a prototype page and has not been properly created, then it is not an issue to move things around, but you should try to keep related blocks together.

Item status: Wikibase set to be removed / Property data must be recovered first, then Wikibase extensions will be disabled / Ontology pages are now canonical Item pages 
Once the items on this page have been created, it will be natural for the names and purposes of the items to evolve somewhat over time, and there is no need for anyone to worry about whether the current set of items is "following" this prototype page. Items will become [[:Category:Ontology portals|grouped into specific topic-based Ontology pages]] such that following the list is less unwieldy, or [[:Category:Ontology entries by number|paginated numeric lists]] including the actual Items by template.

</li><li class="field_horror" data-tradition="Fy" value="618" data-dimension="S">snake as opposer / snake as villain
</li><li class="field_trotsky" data-tradition="Fy" value="618" data-dimension="S">snake as conspirator -> slightly different from the usual connotation of snakes. this is the notion that snakes are "bad" because they're conspirators rather than that they're conspirators because they're bad. this allows for the ironic use of snakes as a neutral symbol for things like Trotskyism 
I may have ended up coding this just because of one moment years ago when a Marxist video referred to Trotskyists as "snakes" and it really stuck with me in an indescribable way. I wouldn't say it upset me. it's almost like I found it funny, but not exactly. I was just... thinking about it occasionally, with a weird regularity. I think deep down, I was struck by the deep contrast between how obvious it is to mainstream Marxist-Leninists that Trotskyites can be treasonous conspirators but how completely non-obvious it was to absolutely everyone else, to the extent of changing and shaping the metaphors that people used to describe the situation. in some sense, both had to be true. it had to be true that Trotskyites were snakes, and Trotskyites were not snakes, at the same time. I settled onto the concept that they can be snakes and not be evil, just awkward noodles that sometimes hide themselves in the ground and don't fit in and will bite you if you step on them but aren't necessarily out to get you. 
there's a joke to be had somewhere within the classic United States newspaper cartoon of the snake joining or dying, the motif that things like these hide a secret snake conspiracy, and the Ironblood scenario I had sketched out of Trotskyists being the ones to save the United States in a world where every country eventually invents Communism or Anarchism — "I suppose conspiracies aren't always bad" or something like that
</li><li class="field_fantasy" data-tradition="Fy" value="618" data-dimension="S">snake as noodle -> the angle Zootopia takes, which is respectable next to all the relatively conventional associations handed to the other animals within the first movie

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="F2">Everyone defecting from Trump means the threat of Toryism is over {{YouTube|AQ2ZxeneQrk}} -> no. it could just as easily mean that everybody is done with democracy and voting but

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Reference frames don't change fundamental physical laws / Equivalence principle (Einstein) -> one of the basic propositions bridging special and general relativity. 
apparently, I have a weird habit of dividing the distinction between special and general relativity a little wrong. whenever I try to explain them I try to turn everything about reference frames into special relativity and everything about the small-scale structure of spacetime into general relativity, and I guess that isn't true to the original writings. so, when we create the Categories for special and general relativity, I'll try to actually divide that right. for the book, I can come up with some new terms to label my second division, like reference frame relativity and black hole relativity. I think there's some value to making that distinction, basically just for questions like what on earth is going on at the scale of black holes.

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Inertial mass is the same as gravitational mass / The equivalence principle applies to inertial mass versus gravitational mass, making them equal [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN2E-Z43Ux0] -> Einstein held to this. some scientists have been trying to test it. so far there is no evidence to reject it.

</li><li class="field_mdem" data-tradition="MX" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Trotskyism is a Marxism lacking historical materialism -> the claim that Trotskyism understands the basic concept of classes, factions, and historical periods, looking for all the world like any named Marxism in its internal content, but it doesn't understand how to check hypotheses about historical processes; it's a Marxism without the ability to evaluate its claims scientifically. this was one of the observations that led to creating meta-Marxism — to force Trotskyists to actually check and re-evaluate their hypotheses by making them step out of Trotskyism for just a second, saying "hey look, here's a Trotskyism, exactly what you're familiar with, but it's a material object, now what's wrong with it? how does this material object actually evolve in time versus how you think it does?"

</li><li class="field_geo" data-tradition="STM" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Quarks carry a Higgs boson / Fermions borrow mass from the Higgs field / Massive particles such as quarks and electrons take their mass from quanta that come out of the Higgs field -> this is so interesting because if you're not a physics expert you wonder things like why neutrons aren't protons and up quarks aren't down quarks and what's going on with protons decaying to neutrons and particles converting into an electron and a positron, how any of it actually goes together. it is an amazing discovery to find out that really, the difference between a massless particle and a massive particle is kind of just adding mass, that whenever a massive particle spawns from a field or interaction a Higgs boson will have spawned (or the correct number of them, I guess, going in both the matter and antimatter directions). [https://home.cern/news/news/physics/searching-matter-antimatter-asymmetry-higgs-boson] there's only a little bit more to it than that. I couldn't tell you exactly why an electron can't be converted directly into a massless particle. there has to be some explanation for that.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" data-tradition="MX onto A" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Anarchism is the shovel dream of anarchies / Anarchism is the shovel dream of anarchy -> this is why it can sometimes seem authentic — it actually is describing a real thing, it just overstates how great and revolutionary that real thing actually is.

</li><li class="field_mdem" data-tradition="MX, MX onto DG, MX onto A" value="618" data-dimension="S2">An anarchy is a heterogeneous combination / An anarchy is a stationary combination of heterogeneous elements / Anarchy is a real historical process but it is not inherently made of "community" (not), it is literally just the superficially-peaceful stationary combination of heterogeneous elements -> this is one of the only statements about anarchism I find very believable. though it does help that it's mine, being a meta-Marxist statement and all. I think there are many different kinds of anarchies but none of them are anywhere near as revolutionary as anarchists believe they are. I think they're just historical processes like any other, similar to Deng Xiaoping processes or Stalin processes or hypothetical Trotsky processes, only the key difference is anarchy processes are stationary instead of explosive reactions that bring change. I think there are going to be a bunch of different anarchies with a bunch of different names, like there could be Kropotkin processes, etc. and when the results roll in, what we will find is that there are at least three anarchies embedded in Liberal-republicanism and none of them are doing any good, they're all mostly just making people angry and making them want to go back to violence because friendship just isn't working out and is only bringing a lot of stress and toxicity.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" data-tradition="MX onto A" value="618" data-dimension="S2">A functioning protest is an anarchy / A functioning protest contains a peaceful stationary combination of heterogeneous elements; this refers to the internal structure of the event, and does not apply to the relationship between the protest and its external targets (meta-Marxist framing) -> using specifically the meta-Marxist definition of anarchy, I see no reason this wouldn't be correct.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" data-tradition="MX onto A" value="618" data-dimension="S">Some families are not anarchies -> I hate the anarchist analyses of this because the concept is right but the analysis is wrong. they overcomplicate everything. in the context of meta-anarchism it becomes okay

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S">maladaptive anarchy -> the distinction of whether an anarchy is actually healthier than anhierarchy or is created and maintained for purely ideological purposes.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S">anarchism versus anarchology -> an anarchism is a named ideology which realizes a particular form of civilization, similar to how Trotskyism and Gramscianism are divisions of Marxism. anarchology would refer to a study of anarchies as they exist inside any particular civilizational shape whether it is a named anarchism, Liberal-republicanism, a named Marxism, or anything else.

I had so much trouble putting this into understandable words until I finally came up with "anarchy isn't anarchism" plus "anarchy isn't anhierarchy" and then it finally made sense. this claim may sound a bit bizarre on the surface, but the claim here is that the CPC is an anarchy of the regions of China as opposed to a hostile anhierarchy of regions all divided into opposing parties forming multicapitalism. so, yeah, the claim is a little technical. it isn't a claim that the CPC versus the populace is an anarchy or the CPC versus corporations is an anarchy or the CPC versus the other parties in New Democracy is an anarchy. it's the very specific claim that the CPC is a process for combining the representatives of each region into an anarchy, even as party-nations technically contain a spatial slot hierarchy of people in the pool of experts or not in it. the newly-coined definition of anarchy in meta-Marxism is rather specific, and doesn't rule out anarchies containing spatial slot hierarchies, although they are not supposed to contain conflated owners of the whole anarchy as part of the anarchy. I do agree that anarchies are headless. but I think across everything I've seen so far the core definition of anarchy in anarchism and things pretending not to be anarchism is actually the stationary combination of heterogeneous elements, not the immediate absence of all hierarchies.

the great problem with defeating capitalism is that capitalism is already a government before it has a State, in the sense that parishes were tax-collecting governments or counties are governments, and the specific kind of government it is is a really bizarre and oppressive anarchism. capitalism is an anarchism, right now, today. it's a government composed of tiny population-society territories and the tiny population-governments of each town or region are formed into an anarchy. it's hard to dismantle the business territories even in the sense of separating them from their owners partly because people really really love anarchies on a visceral level and have a natural revulsion to dismantling any anarchy.

the one thing about this that does not confuse me is that I think Marx's concept that humanity can understand and control its own development continues to make perfect sense. [https://vidak.substack.com/p/marx-naturalism-anachronism-and-the] you need a new and very different Marxism to put two separate populations together, but it isn't inconceivable when you think about situations where two Marxisms did attempt to form in the same country and thus were already side by side in a sense. Marx says that everything humans do has a certain significance of being an arrangement of social links, even the exchange of food recipes. the conclusion is that in one sense all problems including a population dividing in two come down to the ability to control the overall shape of a collection of social graphs.

this has huge implications for a lot of things including the arts. there's no such thing as art which is pure individual expression independent of other art that exists. there's always a background competition to know exactly what a genre of competing people is "the best, more than other people do" to then be able to participate in it and create something new which both fits into it and impresses people, which gets harder and harder every decade as more things are made and nobody thinks about how many things each generation effectively has to know about. if you trained an AI not on current art but on the premises of all books starting way back in 1800 or so versus what's current, it's actually in question whether biological humans have a long enough memory and attention span to do that task well. this isn't to say AIs are good but it is to say that we dramatically underestimate the role of interactions between individuals in determining what art is versus the role of the individual artist, expression, or "lived experience". the actual emergence of successful art likely looks more like small-scale determinism than some kind of triumph of individual will. think of it this way: can just anyone create a new Chinese word, or do you have to be highly versed in all the nuances and situations of speaking Chinese?

[https://www.britannica.com/topic/Maori-language] -> no matter how descriptivist you are, there has to be a working set of rules about what is and isn't speaking Chinese, where if you don't follow them, inclusion is not possible. 
the difficulty of determining the difference between "beginner understandings" and "prejudice" is one of the biggest snags for trying to apply either Existentialism or anarchism. the fact that culture always does have a definition even as it shifts and evolves makes it really difficult to actually create coexistence and tolerance between countable cultures when they will so frequently act offended just because somebody isn't performing their specific rules well and is instead performing a different set of rules well. this shows us that culture is never truly about the content, and is always about the degree of connection between the individual and a particular countable culture — a person at a low rank of fitting-in in one countable culture can easily be at a high rank of fitting-in in another one, thus the sort of "discipline process" of learning to do a culture right and not wrong belongs wholly to one countable culture assigning belonging-ranks to its own individuals, not to the world or to humanity. assuming that prejudice leads to exclusion is therefore a faulty assumption, because prejudice would be cultural content of one culture (example: Southern Baptist Christians excluding gay people), but it isn't the content that actually binds people together, it's their ability to fit together around the same rules into a shared culture-object as individuals. it isn't the fact that people write in Chinese characters that makes them not understand Spanish and say it doesn't look much like Chinese, it's the fact that different people have greater or lesser connection to the connected body of Chinese speakers, which passes around evolving definitions of what is spoken or written Chinese. 
I already feel this concept going a lot more places. just you wait until I come back a little while from now with a killer theory of how the Chinese language is somehow a perfect metaphor for the difference between mainstream Marxism-Leninism and Trotskyism. this concept of all molecular-scale structure being [[Term:Filamentism|Filamentist]] hierarchy until it's Marxism has a really wide scope at the end of the day

this is an easy fallacy to get into when there have been protests because [[E:protest brain|people will think the protests actually cause people to like each other]] and it isn't necessarily true. what changes people and causes them to start solving for themselves more productively is individually being put into a position of having to defend themself from the majority or the most powerful small rings of people, regardless of if anyone else is there with them. the big thing that matters is [[E:Trotsky is your new hero|whether people choose to stay in that disadvantaged position just because it's right]] even if a lot of people there hate them and want to send them back to the reactionary side. you can't make groups of people be nice to each other or be friends, no matter how serious and well-read a schizoanalyst theorist you are. people are going to behave unpredictably to each other and you need to keep them together even as some of them treat each other with utter cruelty and don't behave like friends or comrades at all. it's at that point that either people develop true integrity, sticking to a faction even if everyone on it is terrible purely because they study science and mathematics and look beyond all the confused people around them saying slightly wrong things to seek what's true, or the whole thing crumbles. empathy really doesn't cut it any more in an age where everyone is inherently competing on everything ever including communicating on newsfeeds or getting into subreddits or promoting inclusive minority businesses for just one minority and nobody is friends. community is nothing, materialism is key.

(whether this is true is... complicated. there are some times that would seem true and some times where it would seem really misleading.) the reference video actually gives a material reason in that wealth versus austerity causes the reversion. however, it seems ridiculously easy to argue this same thing without bringing up that legitimate model, and simply go arguing that Bolshevism is one big distraction while Un-Progressive Hierarchies need to be fought on a separate level regardless of whether it is amenable to Bolshevism or squashes Bolshevism. the video used Freud trying to argue the first reason while not realizing Freudian and Jungian models (although Lacanian models less so) are absolutely ripe for arguing the second reason. 
one of the major errors in this video is assuming that Soviet people can control what other countries outside them are doing. they can't. that's di- intelligent design, that's the Shenlong effect. reality experiences the Vegeta effect. when you're standing in the United States, you can't actually say "I'll fix the Soviet Union by changing the United States' Free Will toward Communism", because if you're on the Communist side you don't have access to the non-Communist side's will. to think the two sides will fire off at once without a hitch is basically Trotskyism, or nearly equivalent to it. Trotskyism is traditionally defined as multiple separate countries suddenly synchronizing, but when you define it specifically by its errors versus reality, you see that that error could apply to parts of the same fracturing country as easily as it does to two bigger separate countries. so that's the crux of this. you have to either be in the totally non-Communist movement to change the United States or in the Soviet Union, you can't be in both countries at once.

I laughed at it but at the same time the idea stuck in my mind and kept turning over many times in different permutations to where it had become less like I had anything against the article and more felt like it was a gift in its own way.

I think part of the problem is that people very quickly vulgarize "the conditions in another country" into "lived experience" because without already having a historical materialist framework they can't even comprehend what large countable cultures containing causes and effects would look like. 
my thoughts on this: I think people might learn best through the visual language of fantasy books. it's a little more common than not for people to look at a fantasy book and say it's perfectly okay for a particular historical process to happen as it does even if there's collateral damage, while equivocating and complicating the need to overcome a particular conflict is stupid. at the moment people talk about "villains" they kind of almost understand history. 
the only real problem is when people think they understand a historical process and jump up on their high horse as if they were analyzing it through dialectical materialism when they actually aren't, and they've mentally swapped dialectical materialism and filtration. they've created filtration but they've created non-Marxist filtration that isn't amenable to Marxism, and then they take the high ground like, you gotta get on board the historical process, but they've got Lacanianism at best, they don't have Marxism.

conceptually similar to "scientism" if we really address the causes of both of them throughout the act of comparing them. only in that case of scientism and artism both being creations of the bourgeoisie, complaints about scientism are perfectly sensible

what's stunning to me is that an event horizon is enough to get Hawking radiation. you'd think from a naïve but grounded understanding of physics that the black hole stuff between the horizon and singularity has to be leading to all the weird properties, hidden variables or not. it's crazy we can see so many things about the event horizon and that black holes aren't more mysterious than they are. why is so much seemingly happening so close to the surface? ordinary stars don't work that way, they have a corona and a center. so why is the black hole so nearly an actual hollow shell. that is so strange

Christians are afraid of crime and rival kingdoms all mysteriously moving around outside, they form into a church. Muslims are afraid of kingdoms conquering each other, they form into a caliphate. capitalism promises "freedom", it practically creates the need for workers to cluster into large corporations so survival will be more predictable and for somebody to be at the head of that corporation predicting everything on the outside so those people can get a paycheck. a Deng Xiaoping state forms when countries have a greater need to be vigilant against war and not make stupid mistakes in their survival than the need to let individuals fight with each other and pursue totally experimental ideas and structures. it follows that when uncertainty goes away, there is a greater potential to republicanize any particular workplace, taking away particular points of authority and handing authority only to "standard procedure". 
anarchists don't like this proposition because they generally want to believe that "crabs" are created by one individual's ideas or by di- intelligent design rather than by purely unintelligent, undesigned processes that humans are merely trying to operate in.

the thing that bothers me is what people propose the process to actually be. if you define this in a way that supports historical materialism I wouldn't really be able to complain. what bothers me is when people try to define the historical process of colonialism in a way which is distinctly historical non-materialism or historical existentialism. 
if I can be brutally honest for a moment? it reeks of First World privilege for people to think that a bunch of people just standing around and willing something can get people whatever they want. if you have access to lots and lots of money that peasants would clamor over each other to have, or your gigantic continental government has access to all that money supposedly, of course you can have whatever you want. of course it will seem like anyone who does anything but beg owners of giant local-state-sized swaths of industry to pay money to support anything else when paying it would take away their ability to make more ability to help "clearly" doesn't understand history and "clearly" isn't doing anything productive. clearly, history gets less violent as all the power funnels into the United States and all the other countries lose their governments and everyone can just vote on things but they have to be White. and everybody else is stupid. everyone who's a peasant and hasn't created capitalism only has to work harder to be able to vote in about 50 years. but the cherry on top is that if the whole world knits together into Liberal-republicanism it will spend its time dividing in two and generating blood feuds just so it's supposedly "fair" and isn't "totalitarian". (sic.) all of it makes sense in its own twisted way except that. the one thing I genuinely don't get is how a system that generates blood feuds and periodic shootings is inherently fair.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Liberal-republicanism regulates endocolonialism / There is an endocolonialism process which operates based on different coherent subpopulations nominating experts to advise them and make their laws but then in order to achieve any unity between subpopulations whatsoever, having to fight over which political subpopulation acts as the ruling ethnic group of the empire holding empire over the other politically-defined ethnic groups, and Liberal-republicanism regulates this to keep it from turning into a permanent physical Britain-versus-India style colonialism -> if this is true, then Third World countries are predisposed to Marxism because they don't have the process of endocolonialism that First World countries have, at least not the one that leads to the creation of Liberal-republicanism. 
point in favor of this: historically, empire is the simplest way to join populations. empire joined the fracturing populations of Germany, England, China, Japan, old Korea, India, the list goes on and on. so if Liberal-republicanism is absurdly simple, too simple to possibly work, that it would devolve into humanity's simplest method of joining large populations is not surprising. none of these were colonialism yet. that only started to develop when two populations could smash into each other, like European empires and North American tribes. but what if two majority-ethnicity populations were smashing into each other and trying to expand over each other and siphon away each other's land inside a kingdom? well, then that could potentially be colonialism.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Liberal-republicanism cannot be decolonized / Endocolonialism cannot be removed from Liberal-republicanism as long as the latter exists -> note the "endo-". this doesn't mean reparations can't exist. reparations are in response to a past exocolonialism. endocolonialism refers to colonialism basically being identifiable inside a group solely consisting of White people, for instance, a group that's all-British, or all-Dutch, though probably not all-Irish. a group that's all-Japanese, or all-Italian, and has not yet smashed into any particular foreign country it is trying to brutalize but already contains colonialism inside it anyway. that's endocolonialism. from a Materialist point of view it's tempting to say it doesn't exist in order to say it's referring to something else that does exist. but in the end, that's meta-ontologically dishonest. if people are getting stirred up about "colonialism" they won't shut up until you tell them how to stop "colonialism". so it's more meta-ontologically sound to tell them they're talking about "endocolonialism" and that nobody actually knows what that is. also that, really, it's utterly necessary to create a historical materialism of some kind to explain endocolonialism. to explain how something entirely inside a group of White people leads to exocolonialism you very much need a theory of material cause and effect which actually shows how small scales lead up to larger scales and how surrounding patterns can change smaller scales to produce different large-scale events. "ideas, attitudes" won't cut it; you really have to know and predict what each idea produces in reality to know whether any idea will be useful.

I'm surprised that half of all dystopia books aren't already written this way, considering the way every educated person reports on life in their own country. is it that dystopia is softly assumed to only happen elsewhere, even when it supposedly takes place in the author's country? is it that an instance of the United States which has fallen is considered a foreign country?

</li><li class="field_anarchy" data-tradition="MX onto A" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Liberal-republicanism and Marxism are the same / Republicanism is one big shell game where experts pretend that anyone can be in a position of power and then use the actual difficulty of becoming an expert as a lever to shame everyone for not dropping everything they're doing to become an expert and subsequently order everyone to mindlessly obey what they say or not be considered a real human with a functional adult brain -> the major flaw in center-Liberalism: if you believe in Liberal-republicanism there's no incentive to obey center-Liberals and allow any new policies to be made. any act of reactionaries obeying progressives is ceding their voice and their right to not be told who to vote for; any act of change is essentially giving up democracy and embracing colonialism.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Communist parties, hierarchical, are bad / Communist parties are bad because they are hierarchical -> this is contradictory because one typical point of evidence is that people can be expelled from Communist parties, but anarchisms also use expulsion in much the same way and claim it's not hierarchy any more just because it's theirs, just because anarchism is a connected whole and that supposedly can't be a hierarchy. expulsion has to either be hierarchy or not. and I think there's a better case it isn't. only in cases of imperialism where a few White people want to extend their population over the world and rule it does expulsion become a serious thing where not being in a particular country is bad. ordinary people really don't know the difference between non-colonial and colonial and almost get the two backwards so that colonial is freedom and non-colonial is empire.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Boundaries between the inside and outside of something can exist without being hierarchy -> this absolutely has to be true, or people organizing black graduation is a form of hierarchy, and people not being friends with nazis and excluding them from social circles is a form of hierarchy. proto-fascist Tories absolutely want to believe these two things because they have no issues with everything they see being a hierarchy as long as accusing a hierarchy of being unfair allows them to tear the thing apart. the part people are not going to like is that this means that people being sorted into nation-states with hard borders is not necessarily a form of hierarchy, and simply a form of separation. after two populations separate a new spatial slot hierarchy can form inside, but the separation is not a hierarchy, not even if The Communist Party created it. the only hierarchy is inside The Communist Party, while inclusion or exclusion is a different thing from hierarchy.

I call this... uh... di-existentialism is when you duplex existentialism, not when you extend it as everyone over other people. bridgistentialism? I don't know.

Christianity has always said it's not about prejudice because anyone can become Christian and if they would just become Christian and simultaneously abandon all other religion and magic ritual the world could be united. Trotskyism makes essentially the same error, coercing anarchists and mainstream Marxists-Leninists into Trotskyism just because of the vacuous truth that if everyone was Trotskyist everyone would be Trotskyist. does most Liberal-republicanism or anarchism have a grounding which is any better than this? is any of it prepared for the possibility that somebody genuinely does not want to be part of a particular group of people, and all the "community" and "anti-prejudice" you can manage wouldn't be enough to fix that? "dem"-"ocracy" is just fine if people are part of the Demos in the first place, but what if they aren't? what do you do when there are multiple separate Demotes that distinctly don't want to be controlled by each other as a matter of national autonomy and self-determination?

North Korea mostly only contained teeny tiny businesses that were utterly incapable of being large capitalism or really having a proletariat. and yet that didn't stop people from forming into a Marxist party-nation. they just did it anyway. you can argue North Korea is "suffering", you can argue North Korea is "poor", you can argue that forming a Marxist party-nation hasn't worked out well, but you can't argue that they didn't form one in spite of what Marxism has traditionally said. I think this leaves no excuse for First-World countries.

I have to say, this is one of those propositions where my first response is simply "that's icky, I don't like it" without an actual reason, where I then have to really stop and think on what is actually wrong with it because I know "icky" is not an argument. I think one possible starting point is the proposition that art must represent its audience rather than its author. that way you rule out art getting to be racist just because a bunch of White people had unique experiences and are such good artists that are so good at being unique individuals that we don't need Media Representation — people absolutely will say this if you let them. all the spontaneity and biographical detail and seconds and minutes of irreplaceable Lived Experience you can muster means nothing if it doesn't represent the audience rather than the author.

I do think artistic abstraction exists. also... it looks like this book is largely an attempt to justify fiction as memoir. I think that's dangerous when it comes to the role of fiction as "education". if a country contains 90% one ethnic group and 10% another one, you want about the top 80% of people making art that's almost totally abstracted from real life, or art simply becomes softly racist as everybody gets flooded with the experiences of one particular ethnic group. it's really much better to have White people focusing all their energy into things like {{book|Harry Potter}} and {{book|Warriors}} so there's space for minorities to write all the more biographical stories that actually manage to teach people about experiences they haven't had.

"the first" Trotskyism was mostly composed of anticommunists but anyone can take it and fill it with workers (assuming they have unreal levels of skill, of course), so it's harder to categorically say that Trotskyism itself is anticommunist even despite all the times it's wrong. similarly Western-Marxism can be wrong a whole lot of the time but not necessarily always malicious.

I quite literally heard about Engels' work as good from mainstream Marxist-Leninists and Trotskyist pages, as a non-Communist, before I ever heard this one. I think that really goes to show what an utter bubble disconnected from ordinary people "the New Left" actually lives in. like, my whole life I've been a socially isolated nerd, but somehow I've never been as isolated in a remote ivory tower as The New Left, to the point I heard "correct" Marxism before I ever really heard of them. Richard Wolff is the only exception where I had any contact at all with anticommunist Western-Marxists and their theory. and as far as I can remember he never managed to confuse me and make me think that what he was doing was remotely the same thing as Bolshevism. I think it was always relatively intuitive to me that "Marxism" and "Western Marxism" were potentially different things. so it is particularly puzzling to me that anybody could think that early Western-Marxism is the one true Marxism. if you have the slightest bit of intuition for [[E:duplexing|duplexing]] or meta-Marxism you'd at least realize that there isn't one true Marxism in that specific sense, and realize that instead there are always plural Marxisms. what stops us from this? is it imperialism? is it the tendency to think that because White culture is the only culture that ever existed and Marxism seeks to find the one correct model of the world, this means Western-Marxism must be the only Marxism? 
the one thing that always makes Western Marxism so complicated for me is it's the favorite Marxism for minorities to appropriate to claim that Marxism is the best theory for, and solely designed for, ridding the United States of racism. you have one faction of people which is appropriating Gramsci and Marcuse to claim that Marxism is a theory of anti-racism, and then you have one faction of people who is using the same theorists to claim almost literally that Russians are inherently bad and Bolshevism could never succeed because of bad Russian culture that isn't White culture — you see, even if Russians look White they can't possibly be White because they don't have Democracy. which is a cultural idea, not a practiced material structure that could exist within Bolshevism. they oppressed a single individual with the correct ideas instead of including him through tent of freedom poles and that means that Russians are a savage race that must be fought by real White people until they physically include White individuals with good ideas in their society. this is not neocolonialism, it's just Democracy.

there was this one line in {{book|1984}}. "there were no laws, but there were crimes". you know, you know full well that if anybody in China today read justice according to intuition like those ancient imperial judges this is exactly what people in other countries would be thinking, and they might just clamor to force the government to read justice by exactly what's written simply so that spooky scary Communism doesn't behave unpredictably. if China were to not have a constitution people would be terrified, even though reading justice according to intuition is almost exactly why that would be the case. 
human beings want their own country to be as anarchic as possible but they want other countries to be perfectly and utterly regimented like robots so they aren't left guessing what other people will do. this seems to come down to a poor ability to take situations and [[E:duplexing|duplex]] them in order to understand what two people or structures doing the same thing will produce without one structure seeking to control the other and produce a single structure.

I don't think the association with Existentialism or anarchism means it's bad to be LGBT+ or to create things that primarily revolve around that — it's not bad to create a gay nightclub or a lesbian romance book or a circle of {{book|Deltarune}} fans just because those things "aren't Marxist" or whatever. this can get a little confusing because while it's pretty obvious to say it's not against Marxism to be Chinese or North Korean, LGBT+ identity has always been very political and has always been this weird sort of tiny national identity inherently created through the practice of anarchism, as if just like you need to read a Liberal-republican civics book to successfully be United-States you have to read an anarchist civics book to successfully be LGBT+. I think a philosophical tradition code is appropriate to reconcile this weird blend of identity and culture which is fine and intertwined politics.

which provides a little insight into exactly why this movie is co-opted by reactionaries. they're getting Latticed together way across space in secret underground passages, "just like" transgender people. and yeah, that makes it quite hypocritical they so often try to act like trans people Latticing together is some kind of virus brainwashing people and corrupting the nation. you'd think that if that were true the exact same thing would be true for them.

note: I think this one is neat. it's one of those things that's broadly right even if it's right for slightly incorrect reasons. the action of populations against each other sorts individuals into genders, racial groupings, and so forth; under the model of structuralist linguistics you see the words man and woman or masculine and feminine shift in relation to each other as the populations shift. so... I give this one a pass. it isn't wrong. it at least isn't wrong.

Lacanian discipline doesn't sound so good now, does it? now let's say we take Stalin's Marxism and duplex it. two different countries unite the proletariat and form Marxist parties and become workers' states. however, if the two countries have totally different ideas of what is in favor of the proletariat in any particular country, each country's party will become incapable of contributing to freeing the world proletariat.

I think it was one of the basic theorists like Marx, Engels, or Lenin but I do not remember. 
here are my thoughts on this: abstract concepts don't have to exist in nature to be useful. but freedom is in entirely another category from something like, say, irrational numbers or [[E:Is topology a threat to Marxism?|topological spaces]]. you can learn tons and tons of math and it could be all of it is only useful to creating a workers' state and bringing people together and none of it is harmful. but if you have the wrong model of freedom it could lead you to destroy society, divide populations from each other, or even start a war. I'm not confident there is no model of freedom which is safe. all I know on that is that everyone in the United States always uses the bad ones, even anarchists use bad ones, and I am really tired of those.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">If free will doesn't exist, what did Trotsky exercise? -> in the United States and sometimes in Britain, Trotsky is the prototypical example of why "freedom", "dialogue" or "debate", and "pluralism" are supposedly important, and why supposedly "letting factions turn into a totalitarian state" is bad. I think it's no exaggeration to say he has fully been integrated and appropriated into Liberal-republicanism right next to Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and John Stuart Mill. this makes about as much sense as Christians reading off versions of Jewish scripture copied in by Jewish Christians and appropriated by the Roman Empire — maybe it did at one point in history, but it makes no sense today. the crux of that entire appropriation process lies in the concept of Freedom. Trotsky can be appropriated by right-Liberalism because he supposedly demonstrates what it means to be free, and to exert one's will to become free. and what do we call that? it would seem to be one of the most clear-cut demonstrations of whether "free will" does or doesn't exist. if you do believe Free Will exists, you'll say Trotsky turned away from the Soviet Union because he has Free Will, partly defined as the physical and psychological autonomy from the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. if you don't believe Free Will exists, you'll have a much longer and surely much more interesting account of exactly why Trotsky didn't turn around and reintegrate himself with the only country and political faction that had ever suited him. 
I remember some Marxist text saying "freedom can be important even if it doesn't exist in nature". and ever since then I've been doubting that claim, going, okay, but if we assume nature doesn't refer to wolf packs and it refers to things like geological processes, chemical reactions, Newtonian mechanics, and general relativity, isn't it important to know what freedom really is or fails to be as it fails to exist within the whole universe? if we don't answer that question it's super easy to turn freedom around against the world proletariat and use it as a weapon to lead everyone into "[[E:undialectical idealism, historical non-materialism, and class non-analysis|undialectical idealism]]". this is how the Cold War, or the first phase of the forever cold war, was won. the major tactic has been to take these very particular constructs like "freedom" and "community", which are each described with models that are probably wrong, and unite all the bourgeoisie around them and then unite everyone else to the bourgeoisie around Freedom and Community specifically because they want Freedom and Community. the French Revolution didn't just happen once, it's a nasty process that regenerates itself over and over far beyond the point it's harmful.

(academic phrasing) -> while looking for the definition of "transgenderism" I found this phrasing, and. what? [https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/1468-5922.12356] my issue with this isn't really that you're not allowed to call any and all material parts of a country "culture"; you look at something like the Workers' Party of Korea and they'll be saying "culture" but they actually mean the structure and activities of the population, where the whole population with all its moving parts is a countable culture. instead, I think my issue is that you can't just take parts of an individual and say that's culture because an individual isn't really a countable culture — not truly. things an individual is wholly imagining, like if you have Susie Deltarune standing in the supply closet perceiving a card soldier that is entirely in her mind versus in her hand or in the closet, are culture. but Susie being a Monster or being a girl are not culture. I'd add that this is because I think transgender identity is partly material, but I don't even think that matters at all for this discussion, I think the Susie example nails it pretty well. you have to have this minimum amount of choice (insert Deltarune joke here) in what you are or what identity group you are standing in for something to be culture. you take Trotsky and him identifying as a Trotskyist might fairly be called culture because he chose to be there. but having a gender identity is mostly not chosen, it's only the last bit of uncertainty in what group of people they want to hang around that people have to choose to collapse.

I think this is how racism actually functions these days. it's actually people hating poor people and anarchists rather than an ethnic group. the problem is, how do you persuade people not to hate anarchists when, depending on the anarchism, anarchists are actually raiding retail stores, making sure books and movies are only available unlawfully, and not respecting the concepts of money and labor? it's hard not to descend into a world where people scan for the slightest trace of a signifier of anarchism to immediately oppress.

[https://www.thechinaguide.com/blog/chinese-ethnic-groups] this is probably some kind of conflict between separate Muslim ethnic groups conflicting over which one is really Muslim, and accusing each other of siding with the central government to oppress each other. because that's just kind of how religion goes. in Iraq and Afghanistan when invasions destabilized the country they split into religious sects fighting each other and the sects would side with imperial powers to oppress each other. even in the UK religious sects leveraged the monarchy to oppress each other and for Protestants to try to eliminate Catholics from Ireland and take their land. religion just does this, uses any center of power as a fulcrum to eliminate other religions.

let's make it really simple: a group of cats that doesn't understand the benefits of getting along with other cats forms into ShadowClan. it's not like the first arc of {{book|Warriors}}, and the ShadowClan cats help each other out in order to survive. then they casually treat the other clans in awful ways and try to take over their territories. are "society", "community", and so-called "[[E:a crumb of socialism|social-ism]]" inherently good things, or are they instead potentially bad things that [[E:the community delusion|blind everyone]] to [[:Category:Historical materialism ontology (general-sense)|the real way]] pluralities of societies function against each other?

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">State education is Lacanian discipline -> this is basically assumed in any non-Marxist theory that thinks having classes about the history of racism will fix everyone's problems. the first question anyone should ask when somebody doesn't believe in historical materialism and calls it "predicting history" is: okay, if history classes aren't about predicting what general things could happen in the future then what is the purpose of teaching history classes? out in the real world, it might take you a while to genuinely get a straight answer. but I feel like what is waiting at the bottom of that conversation is this. people think of all behavior in terms of bad things your father or your sister or your classmates or your teacher [[E:no of The Father|told you not to do]]. accordingly they think all behaviors identified as good or bad can be taught this way, in a kind of rote memorization of what's good and bad. of course, there are deep flaws in this. what if people think speaking Spanish is a bad behavior, or "looking gay"? there is no real distinction between behaviors that are prohibited because they are actually bad and behaviors that are prohibited purely to make people obey some arbitrary cultural standard that everyone was arbitrarily taught, and if somebody is even once scolded for a behavior that isn't actually harmful that person will get deeply upset and start to drift out of society and turn against every group of people that scolded them improperly. and unfortunately, reactionaries are always the people most able to productively apply this finding. every single time you scold a single Tory-leaning White person for something which is ultimately neutral you'll get hundreds of thousands of Tories standing up to you on what you "did" to the Tory subpopulation. 
I have always leaned toward the idea that a lot of Tories would be much better at learning historical materialism than they would be at learning "diversity and inclusion" or "anti-racism". if you teach people about whole countries and to portray whole countries correctly as a material process, or to think about subpopulations inside their own country similarly, they'll eventually understand how to give realistic portrayals of people from other populations. if you just pound them over the head with "bad bad bad" for every single tiny mistake they will have a hard time learning the correct picture that's far far bigger and more complex than any of the individual scoldings. it's like seeing somebody not understand general relativity and scolding them for not being able to give an entire presentation about how the scale of photons leads up to time and why single-variable equations may be bad for modeling the universe "because everybody should know that". especially when there is such a contradiction between nice words like "sensitivity" and "inclusion" and the crude, almost barbaric methods of enforcing them that are not at all based in Lived Experience or empathy and as far as I can tell can't teach them.

Marxists are not afraid of the fact that a revolution or re-forming of a society creates an ethnic group. they just say, here is the Ukrainian SSR and here is the Lithuanian SSR and they are not enemies, and call it a day. anarchists seem to find this almost some kind of inconceivable injustice. it's like they think that all individuals on earth naturally want to form together into bigger populations but they don't want to acknowledge that there is anything that binds particular people together against outside threat or against having to be in a group they don't want to be in, when there totally is. everybody could just not be racist and people would still want to form into specific groups for particular reasons, not to just form together with any group of people at random. this is the basic origin of ethnic groups. that people are fundamentally plural based on having stronger links to some people than other people that divide them into separate graphs. this plurality doesn't prevent forming ethnic groups into larger ethnic groups or forming very large ethnic groups like a huge area of Russians, but you have to acknowledge that it's there. every successful group of people that becomes a country for any significant period of time is basically an ethnic group going by the simplest and most inclusive, non-judgemental definition of what an ethnic group is. for any group of people to have freedom or independence there has to be an ethnic group, and it's the graph connections inside the ethnic group that create a country, not the definition of an area of land or some long line called the national border. 
it follows from this claim that smaller groups of people which do not easily form into a larger ethnic group organically will not do well at forming a country, or a "democracy". only correct arrangement of cultures into cultures into cultures actually promotes a healthy ethnic group which in turn promotes a healthy republic.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The proletariat has three scales / There are three scales of the proletariat / There are three scales at which the proletariat is divided: the corporate scale, the scale of countable cultures, and the republican scale 
this statement is false if there is a distinct fourth or fifth scale which is fully separate from either of these. for instance, I find religion hard to separate from countable cultures, I think those are the same thing, and I find political factions hard to separate from countable cultures. countable cultures can overlap or contain each other but that alone doesn't mean there is another countable scale. the republican scale is an entire nation-state such as "the United States" or "China". during events like the Trotskyite conspiracy the national scale will be challenged but a full nation-state is not created yet, so it's the countable culture scale.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The proletariat is identical with {{TTS|html=abbr|cultures|cultures|title=countable culture-populations}} / The proletariat is identical with countable cultures (cultures, countable culture-populations; meta-Marxism) -> the claim that Marxists have been interpreting what the proletariat is slightly incorrectly, because while many people assume the proletariat merely emerges inside existing populations, the reality hypothesized here is that the proletariat is populations. the proletariat is the state of the people of a population being graphed together into a population, with the plurality and physical gaps between populations being part of the definition of what the proletariat is — or to be more precise, what proletariats are. Liberal-republicans get horrified by Bolshevism because they think that when all the people in a country are graphed together things are going backward, but they don't realize that if you remove the bourgeoisie, people graphed into Lithuania and graphed into Estonia and graphed into Russia is exactly the kind of structure that remains, the 14 separate republics each graphed together into a single population and government are a large part of what the proletariat is; the only thing missing from that definition is the potential for any particular proletariat to split into smaller proletariats at any time for a complicated variety of reasons. 
there is a particular reason people haven't discovered this. people want to think of the proletariat as a simple collection of millions of tiny objects called proletarians, when they don't realize that what they're really looking for is the whole group of proletarians being one big object yet one object which does not cover the world. Lenin got this correct, by mobilizing the proletariat with people of different classes and movements to all form a nation-wide movement. this is one example of correctly understanding the proletariat as the overall population of Georgia, etc., when it is in its purest form. what causes huge problems is when individual countries [[E:multicapitalism|break into multiple proletariats]]. practically speaking, they will behave like they are different countries even though there is no mechanism for them to operate as different countries and even if they are horribly scattered so one "country" is mixed into every fifty people of another "country". 
anarchists have this very wrong idea that culture-populations are natural (so far so good) but also that culture-populations naturally want to merge together and coexist, and a lack of Freedom is the only thing preventing this. this is wrong. there can be two Iroquois tribes with all the freedom in the world and one day people in one tribe can just start killing people in the other. the tribes don't actually coexist until they solidly form a combined structure capable of regulating them which they are obligated to be part of and can't secede from. the moment two countable cultures don't effectively reciprocally own each other and they gain freedom they have the capacity to kill. you absolutely can't conceptualize colonialism and "bad governments" as a matter of freedom, it just doesn't work that way. the worst thing is that at the republican scale it's sometimes hard to even force populations to reciprocally own each other. sometimes populations are simply big enough and self-sufficient enough they'll tear away from you and out of the reciprocal ownership. so, the ideal scenario is that Ukraine agrees to reciprocal ownership with the Soviet Union, but if Ukraine tears out of its own will to support some reactionary group of people, then people have not naturally merged together and anarchism is false. it doesn't mean anarchism is true. it means something more like that anarchism is false but fascism is true. a group of human beings joined around culture and [[E:poetry (flair)|poetry]] and hope hard enough simply cannot be controlled and will fight you to the death, and at least win its own life if it has strong enough structures and tight enough internal links. this is people's genuine free will, not a corruption of it. so inasmuch as free will exists at all the only good answer is that free will is bad. freedom is one big nothing burger that goes many roads but ends up nowhere, and free will is bad because it is anti-science and anti-reality. free will is Susie sitting in the middle of her decrepit room hallucinating Image_Friend.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Homelessness is not a proletarian issue / Homelessness is fundamentally an issue created and faced by the bourgeoisie which is only handed down to the proletariat -> this is going to deeply confuse and maybe upset some people, until they understand the rather complicated model I'm trying to describe and begin calmly evaluating the whole model as accurate or inaccurate. so, here goes. homelessness results from a low availability of houses. a low availability of houses results directly from people not having the income to pay for houses. you can blame landlords, but you don't have control over their minds or how they behave; the baseline state is that nobody has any power to stop landlords. in the age of capitalism, people can accumulate power over landlords when they have the power to produce an income, and otherwise they lose power quickly. whether people have the power to produce an income largely depends on bad decisions by the bourgeoisie. the bourgeoisie are always making various bad decisions like abolishing corporate departments and laying off hundreds of people, chopping up big businesses into small businesses, opening teeny tiny businesses that will die in a year, making their corporation entirely about a particular circle of White people that won't let in Black people and acting still like whatever a corporation does or does not do is a matter of Freedom, requiring unrealistic amounts of experience for an entry level job, hiring only overqualified people and softly extinguishing the proletariat rather than figuring out how to put everyone to work, and so on, and so forth, not to mention the people who end up pushed out of capitalism by all these bad decisions and are forced to create new tiny businesses and become owners just because the existing corporations wouldn't let them in — these people are a little less bad but they can make plenty of harmful mistakes too. capitalism is so broken now that the whole thing has been slowly dissolving into just the bourgeoisie versus the bourgeoisie. one side of it is the bourgeoisie who make terrible decisions and refuse to analyze and direct populational development with science. one side of it is the bourgeoisie who have been manufactured by these terrible decisions and have little chance of ever becoming workers again unless we fix the overall science and bad decisions crisis. the blue bourgeoisie, and the strawberry bourgeoisie. it isn't really about actual class divisions now. it's about uniting all the strawberry-tinted people and keeping them as tightly connected as possible just so they can survive and stand up to the people who keep them all from surviving, just so the strawberry-tinted people won't watch their teeny businesses crumble or so they can get apartments, just so people can ever have the faintest hope of having a reform movement or a "democratic" anything. homelessness is not a proletarian issue any more, it's just strawberry. it's just strawberry and crimson against blue and brown.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Education is a conflict of interest -> why is it people are so obsessed with reactionaries and "the masses"? here's the real reason. all true facts come out of observations. every person you talk to can provide observations. uneducated people are not required, but are certainly very common; the key isn't that the people you talk to are ridiculously unaware but simply in talking to as many people as possible to get as much information as possible. it is true that a lot of times observations have to be processed to find what is really going on — that's true for galaxy pictures and it's true for people. that said, the more observations you can collect from people of any educational level the easier it will be to sort through all those observations and ultimately come up with good models of society rather than bad ones. good hypotheses and models don't inherently come from going to college and reading a lot of books or doing a lot of practice problems, even if that helps. good models come from real-world data, not from your head. and yet.... we seem to have a serious crisis of people not realizing the simple fact that models come from data and thinking that "education" (improving your own head) inherently leads to discoveries by itself. I feel like in a better world we'd teach every single "progressive" degree and several others about Gödel's incompleteness theorem, maybe you'd even learn it in high school. we'd teach high school students that only observations can actually lead to knowledge, not logic or reasoning. funny enough I think that might knock more people out of religion than something like teaching evolution, just because people would actually realize that things they see when all alone probably aren't real.

I don't remember the details perfectly well right now. the one thing I remember is somebody killed a lion and people were protesting because it could have lived in a reserve or because people shouldn't destroy animal populations and habitats; it was something like that. there have been news items like this for decades, but the remarkable thing here is that my relatives tried to minimize this by turning the improperly-killed lion into an individual. that's just an individual lion, they said, is it more important than a wolf, a fox, or a house cat? but in the end that's something of a logical fallacy. individuals belonging to populations are never just individuals. if you take a Tory and show them a poacher shooting a lion they are "able" to identify the lion as an individual, but if you take the same Tory and show them a Black criminal shooting a White person, suddenly that criminal is part of a population of hundreds of other terrifying people. take them and show them 9/11 and suddenly they can connect every Arab or every Muslim to the whole population of Iraq. they know what populations are precisely at the moment they think populations are threatening to them, and otherwise they have no idea.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="F2">"Sometimes true" means false / Propositions that are sometimes true are false -> axiom used in the traditional practice of formal logic. I think this has done a lot to ruin logic and generally ruin language. if every proposition has to be precisely 1 or 0 and it can't be precisely anything between that, then propositons have to be ridiculously long in order to be evaluated as what the person who said them actually intended the proposition to mean and refer to. and that creates a complete and utter mess the instant you start talking about "democracy". formal logic works fine in a monarchy, but what if people do experience structural racism in Alabama and don't experience structural racism in California? there will be every temptation for all the voters and representatives who don't live in Alabama to say that the propositon "Black people experience structural racism" is false and there shouldn't be a national policy about something that's false. likewise, every time somebody makes a video essay and says any statement at all, such as "linguists fall into two categories", formal logic incentivizes everyone to instantly pick apart the statement exactly as it's written, and say things like "that statement is false! I know about another category of linguists!" rather than realizing that "fall into two categories" could inherently mean that two categories of linguists exist and other categories of linguists exist while none of them exclude the possibility of the others.
</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">"Sometimes true" means true / Propositions that are sometimes true are true -> this axiom is vastly more forgiving to any claim that real people make with the intention of educating other real people about real problems. when most people attempt to say a true statement they often don't mean to exclude other statements from also being true. "horizontal killings are bad" is not necessarily meant to exclude "defensive wars are not bad", but when you think in terms of formal logic you're often pushed to think "horizontal killings are bad" being true means "war is bad" becomes true. the rule of a statement having to be always true to be true does a lot to make statements that shouldn't be exclusive turn mutually exclusive and destroy discourse because truth values don't encourage people to compromise onto a shared set of true statements. working with sometimes-true statements being true can be a little challenging, but the way you do it is you basically separate large-scale philosophies or ideologies from small-scale ones and the ideologies of different regions from each other and treat them all as material objects, such that something could be true in one of them quite fairly and quite fairly not be true in another, without causing any problems, just because different civilizations have different physical structures and different physical arrangements of people. formal logic was really really badly designed for the existence of multiple countable cultures, and yet, you don't really need to invoke "culture" to fix it per se, you only need to invoke Social-Philosophical Systems of populational structure and the physical gaps between populations. if you separate California and Texas into different bodies of knowledge where the same thing isn't always true even if the population is functioning well, you've basically fixed it.

Deng Xiaoping Thought could very literally be a member of the Western-Marxist tradition just because China is now a First World country and is still more or less practicing it. 
this is where the model of abandoning "The West versus The East" in favor of "First World countries versus Third World countries" really has an advantage. you don't need to say "Japan is a Western nation" or "China has Westernized" where the axis of capitalist alliances between First World countries is the actual thing uniting them against countries that suffer imperialism rather than "culture".

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="F2">The proletariat and bourgeoisie are diametrically opposed -> strictly speaking, this is not always true. for instance, there can be times where both the proletariat and the bourgeoisie have an interest in creating a functioning business structure and making sure it doesn't collapse and leave all the workers unemployed. this is especially true for Director types that are earning significant salaries for actually designing things about the business territory or the individual project to the point of indirectly putting workers into roles or firing workers. let's look at MrEnter trying to create a TV show: he has elaborate plans for practically everything in the TV show, and he only needs to put people into place storyboarding and animating things he has already designed. in terms of having created the project and being the one who will take it to market he should be the capitalist. but he makes a lot of decisions to the point his decisions can affect whether the show succeeds or fails and whether he practically has the money to pay his workers or a simple debt to them. there is a significant problem today, especially as big businesses spontaneously collapse, of a lot of businesses reverting back to a state where the capitalist and the worker are not very differentiated. they're just two peasants bound together both trying very hard to produce something. this makes it hard to apply traditional models of "the capitalist is purely a landlord and the workers can take over"; no, capitalists are sometimes doing just enough real work ordinary people get genuinely confused what a worker is. this isn't just the case in the arts. it's easy for there to be a small restaurant or a small thrift store where the owner still makes a lot of actual day-to-day decisions that could sink or float the workplace itself, and where even lists of union demands across ten tiny thrift stores might not operate fast enough to save it. the union turns into a crude hammer or axe operating on a scalpel-level task — although to be perfectly clear the surgeon is blind. nobody has the ability to both do the task and look at the task at the same time. this has led to a lot of wrong interpretations of unions — that unions are a bunch of [[E:tent of freedom poles|freedom poles]] uniting specifically for freedom, that workers primarily gain the ability to do their job through more and more freedom and not because of any structure or guidance, that if a ring of producing-capitalists strikes it's a gain for workers, that some workers "just don't know what producing-capitalists go through",

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Workers and capitalists sometimes have the same interests / The proletariat and bourgeoisie occasionally have the same interests -> this better covers unusual edge cases like North Korea or China where there can really be a situation where workers and owners have to all stand together against outside countries trying to own their country and take away their right to have a national government, even if outside countries have turned the world into a forever cold war where it's not a thing where you can do it for a short while and then stop. people can also argue over whether workers and owners ever have the same interests just because they both have to organize a Liberal-republican law for Black rights or similar. I'm still not over a contemporary Marxist theorist I will not name saying "workers and owners are diametrically opposed" "you have to detach everyone from the bourgeoisie that run the Democratic Party" and then "we have to build a social-democratic movement, I organize with landlords". one of those statements is wrong. I think it's actually the first one. I think the general concept of creating a large-scale movement of some kind before you try to [[Term:filtration|filter]] it is right. but I think the statement that workers and owners are neatly opposed is wrong. you wouldn't be able to get every single bourgeois assembling-people organizer into your movement and build a "social-democratic party" if they all consciously knew it was against them and that all the workers ultimately just wanted to get rid of them. so the question becomes, is social-democracy nothing more than a useful lie? if it's something more than a useful lie, there have to be solid material reasons for the bourgeoisie to support a nationwide movement where they largely stand to lose something and take on precarity rather than to gain something.

I'm not positive on that. I'll say this. Marxism survives when China merely keeps existing and nothing can destroy the most basic first steps of Marxism from the outside. Marxism also potentially survives when a relatively large area of industry emerges which is impossible to break apart, where the people don't forsake building any of it just because somebody gave them an offer to migrate somewhere better, and it fills up with workers. I said once in MDem drafts: once something becomes so big it's a whole population it decides what is legal, the people surrounding it don't determine what's legal or okay. but I also think that doesn't happen unless the inside of that area is genuinely strong and hard to break up. a statement that "we choose to allow empty houses" doesn't by itself create a population that strong.

I have no idea if it's true. but I am very tired of every anarchist and Western-Marxist trying to claim that television or billboards or social media platforms stand between people and taking action. I know that in some way that claim is very misleading. I think one reasonable hypothesis is that what actually happens is people are connected to the wrong people rather than the right people. simply being connected to reactionary relatives and living in a scarcity of jobs where there are no good places to move to and no workers to meet each day has a far greater effect than "phones" could ever have. in this sense you can argue that everybody normalizing breaking social bonds to be "free" or to "find success" tosses people into a world where they interact mostly with capitalism rather than any organic social connections and if their brain is functioning at all they will grow to hate it in less than a decade. the problem is that this only really manufactures theorists, not workers, because the kinds of people who get the most atomized aren't workers to begin with — by meta-Marxist definitions they're either petty bourgeoisie tearing into a multicapitalism which could theoretically one day lead a plural Marxism, or the Refuse class.

I guess one big factor is simply that one wolf has as many as 6 young, so you start with 7 mother wolves and you can end up with 42; a few leads to many of them. it really makes you think though, if you're writing an imaginary story akin to {{book|Warriors}} why would LGBT+ characters be a problem. once the pups are there you need somebody to raise those 6 pups. they won't really care who is there to protect them from being trampled or lead them out of a hunter area.

I think the sheer concept of tents of freedom poles taken on its own level is enough to do it. I think the sheer activity of telling people about the French Revolution and implying tents of freedom poles by itself can lead people to the wrong ideologies and away from the correct ones. this is because "tents of freedom poles" is a [[:Category:Bauplan ontologies|civilizational shape model]]. civilizational shape models exist below the level of abstract concepts, as if they were actual arrangements of classes. center-Liberals never supported the bourgeoisie just because they liked the bourgeoisie, and instead, propagating Existentialism is the new face of supporting the bourgeoisie.

"a-culture-ism" appears to develop when anarchists are trying to find ways to break up material structures they consider hierarchical and then they realize that the structures are composed of groups of people bound together with toxic culture, so, applying the Idealist frameworks they don't like to abandon, they start declaring that the first step to forming an anarchist movement is to defeat "culture" and the ideas behind the ideas behind the ideas behind the prejudices behind the ideas in people's heads. it seems like this same concept leaches into Western Marxism just because everyone is actually anarchists or Existentialists before they become Marxists and they never quite figure out how to think entirely like Marxists and stop being anarchists.

I think there should be very stringent criteria for what motifs can become F motifs. they should have to be so utterly logically incoherent it is nearly impossible to understand them at all. like, "God" could be an F motif because it's relatively easy to argue the concept doesn't even make sense. something like "unicorns" or "vampires" isn't an F motif because fantasy books can coherently define what they are. most wrong concepts are still just S motifs, not F motifs, because it's easy to tell the difference between a coherent imaginary world where they do exist and the real world where they don't. only a very select slice of motifs are F motifs, which are referred to in consistent language yet on the inside are utter [[Term:conceptual spaghetti|conceptual spaghetti]] that barely refers to anything at all. some parts of Lacanianism may get marked F1 and then have the decision reversed when it's discovered they actually make some kind of logical sense.

China manages to hold back the billionaires with what is effectively a very similar structure to the United States, billionaires actually go to prison when they do something bad, but you need experts to run it which all amount to the petty bourgeoisie. so is China a dictatorship of the proletariat just because it has an intact party-nation of Marxist theorists? arguably, no, it is a Marxist party-nation but a party-nation isn't the same as a successful dictatorship of the proletariat, it's just the first step out of the utter suffering of Liberalism. Menshevism is not a bourgeois reform, literally forming China and giving it the power to violently suppress the bourgeoisie with weapons if truly necessary but it's nearly the same as the United States is the bourgeois reform, and the only reason we don't realize that is that we don't want to admit there are multiple bourgeoisies that utterly hate each other like inhuman carrion piles and so it's truly necessary for people to divide into plural areas of bourgeois control no matter what people want to think. the border of the wolf pack or lion pride is the dangerous part, not the high-ranking adults. that said. here is how I think the order goes: national independence; defeating Liberal-republicanism and creating party-nation; not creating capitalism; creating Bolshevism; dictatorship of the proletariat; age of multi-Bolshevism; hypothetical age of poly-Bolshevism. this is the order of what theories are good theories, whether or not it's the actual order of history.

[[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialism]] was everywhere, and this concept that people will automatically flip over and change their minds if you only shout individuals individuals human rights identities individuals that is an individual you are an individual identity identity people like each other because they are different enough. in the beginning when I was literally a [[E:right-Liberalism|right-Libertarian]] that made some kind of sense to me, but as soon as I started actually not being a conservative all of it increasingly made less and less sense until I was like, where did any of this even come from and how does anyone even think it's correct? I read non-Marxist texts like I was supposed to and none of them made any sense, so I just kept digging and digging and digging on every single lead I could find anywhere to try to figure out where any of this philosophy coherently originated from whether people were creating it consciously or not. most of my research focused only on the past decade and how people could derive ideologies from scratch. but most recently, [[E:U.S. antiwar movements have always been Idealist|I realized]] that past United States antiwar movements had already been this. past large-scale movements in the United States had had the shape of anarchist Idealism, and not at all the shape of Marxism. finally, the outpouring of works like <cite>Undertale</cite> and <cite>Steven Universe</cite> started to make sense. the exact way they were portraying the notion of breaking up war was based on things like the Vietnam War period, in which despite the war being against Communism it wasn't actually Communists trying to stop it. and I'm not just saying the obvious fact of "a Marxist movement isn't mostly made of Marxists", what I'm saying is, "it's as if the whole entire movement was not Marxist and anarchists were forming the theorist layer and trying to form the party-nation". nobody will ever be able to do historical materialism again if we don't understand workers' movements as plural bodies of people with different colors of theorists on top that realize different kinds of countries. incidentally yeah I think Trotsky accidentally set the whole world back purely by claiming workers didn't belong to either plural countries or plural workers' states. come on, Trotsky, [[E:sea of free-floating entities|every object is plural]].

By Jake's definition, no anti-war movement in the United States has ever been a Marxist movement -> this really struck me when reading a book that was accidentally about the Vietnam War. the entire framing of the thing for normal people (and by that I do mean the bourgeoisie that represent them) was morality and basically the notion of war being a social construct and a thing that every individual has to choose to drop or sustain some kind of attack. there's not really any Marxism in there; that could quite easily devolve into a nationality of anarchists attacking a nationality of Liberal-republicans just for being part of the wrong nationality and not immediately assimilating into anarchism. and when you think of things this way, that previous antiwar movements in the United States are United States antiwar movements, you start to really see how "the left we have" being "non-Marxist" is a lot more than a color swatch, and in practice means that when United States people practice "revolutionary defeatism" the population is pursuing a totally different transition out of capitalism than what any Marxist strategy looks like assuming it pursues one at all. if you want people to work with "the left we have" you have to get comfortable with the concept of a [[Term:charcoal transition|charcoal transition]] and that you might have to toss every bit of your Marxist theory out the window and learn a big stack of anarchist or [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialist]] theory, that the United States might get all the way through transition to a new system before Marxism ever begins to apply. 
would I do that? well. I hate it. I have no other choice. I am incapable of doing it practically. that question is one big contradiction. so my answer is, I will analyze every single other ideology through Marxism, but as itself rather than a confused Marxism that explains itself wrong. Trotskyism isn't secretly mainstream Marxism-Leninism, it's Trotskyism. anarchism isn't secretly Bolshevism, it's anarchism. and a Marxist analysis of anarchism is something very different than a Marxist analysis of Marxism pretending to be anarchism. I am a meta-Marxist. if I have to use Marxism to explain how to succeed at totally non-Marxist ideologies that never turn into Marxism then I will. but I won't lie to you that Western Maxism or anarchism "must" be effective just because everyone's doing them and an ideology that's popular "must" be a winning one. I will judge the effectiveness of ideologies based on history. currently it's looking pretty bad for anarchism and bizarrely good for Deng Xiaoping Thought. I have been wracking my brain as to why that latter trend exists, and [[E:The Cold War never ended|I think I half have an answer]]? but the answer only makes the outlook even worse for anarchism. anarchism is going to have to [[E:The Cold War never ended|molecularize]] or it will never win.

I am guessing disabled people would probably not prefer to define access this way. but it's hard to stop that hole from tearing open. some people rewrite programs because they are not practically "accessible" to all the people attempting to look at the code, to debug it and such, and thus they feel rewriting the program is more inclusive to all the human beings that would later look at it. this is all because calling code accessible or not accessible is a fallacy. it's always populations of people that are open or closed to people, and the existence of code or technology is totally incidental; code itself has no intentions on how it is designed. to overcome the fallacy you have to realize that the thing that performs accessibility is an institution. you have to basically deliberately create a really consistent group of people that will function As A Community Unit for it to be able to do accessibility. and when you do that, anarchists will show up accusing you of "centralization". anarchism — depending on which one it is of course — is this terrible contradiction. anarchists want to overcome all social oppressions and make everybody behave good. at the same time anarchists hate anything being consistent and cohesive enough that it could be a painted target for anyone to catch a law-breaking anarchist. this contradiction practically results in a bunch of disconnected anarchists with little information about each other who are unable to live up to the standards of anarchism and who perpetuate social oppressions, all because they are scared to have a civilization that has laws and can defend itself from other populations that think it shouldn't exist. this is the Free Software movement in a nutshell: it's anarchism hiding inside capitalism, and it has all the basic logical problems of anarchism.

the process of creating any civilization historically begins with training a bunch of highly specialized professor types who set up the civilization. after they do that, nobody else necessarily benefits from studying what they studied, but what they created is theoretically available for anyone to use and becomes cheaper. by conventional Liberal-republican wisdom, the same process should apply to everything, with anybody who goes to college being able to discover something new and snag an exclusive Careerist spot as a resident expert, or start a new business. of course, in real life it doesn't quite shake out that way. in real life, capitalism produces so fast thanks to its Third-World workers that culture fills up with available products and nobody even wants or needs any more innovations. people get gaslit that learning stuff will make them likable because people like talent and creativity and education and then they get gaslit again that there's no need for any more art or science if they aren't the next one-in-a-billion international corporation owner that made the stuff everybody around them will be actually using the next morning. so why then does everyone keep saying "college college college, go to college"? because it's ultimately a trick by the bourgeoisie to disguise capitalism. the longer everyone says "college college college", the slower people figure out that the economy has filled up into a very limited number of jobs where the key is not in being good at things but simply in claiming things first and staying in them as long as possible. this is easiest for someone with a huge bank account who does nothing but buy businesses or stocks. a finance capitalist can switch from industry to industry in a heartbeat without spending any money on training, and very easily forgets that all the college-educated people have to spend thousands of US dollars and take years and years to do what they can do in a day or a minute. the concept of education becomes outdated as education inevitably builds up societal structures in which people do not have to learn the things previous pioneers learned. this is good in that in theory jobs will come not to cost as much, although it can be bad in that those with the money and time to commit to education have no advantage over the person who is simply very obedient to the constructs previous educated people created and is willing to work for a low wage, even to the point of serious fault where they go to work for a Tory and fully accept the racist, misogynistic, ableist atmosphere. fifty able-bodied White men full of hatred and willing to work for any wage gain a particular amount of power to absolutely grind five college-educated progressives into the dust. even so, people will keep chanting "education education" like sending all the socially-linked Tories to get an arts degree and somehow bleeding it out of professors' pockets or something will magically fix everything. but in reality all those "education education" people are just falsely and confusedly thinking that they're at the level of elite pioneers who could have started the United States from scratch, they're temporarily embarassed colonizers. they get this wrong impression from the observation that Liberal-republicanism constantly imposes artificial destructive processes which arbitrarily grind up industry and start it over again, ostensibly so that capitalism is "fair" in that new people can enter it and [[E:stale rat bread|Zinovievize]] existing "industrial culture" whenever they get tired of it, but in reality, it's a ruse to make people think cultures are made of endless competition and churn when that can never be the definition of any culture. it's always been that cultures are made of invention, the codification of standards or structures, the falling of profit, and the enjoyment of abundance where applicable. this assumption is baked into the sheer existence of universities. the reason creating professors is valuable is that professors create wealth for society as a whole, not for individuals. even if universities create capitalists, the capitalists also create structure for society at a town- or local-state level rather than for themselves. "[[E:wealth brain|wealth brain]]" destroys humanity's ability to understand society, to understand what it is and how it develops. when you have wealth brain you believe that education is for earning personal wealth and society is nothing more than a bunch of shiny objects and paying, but if that were true, it would quickly become that individuals would destroy the social structures they are supposed to create and become both useless to society having contributed nothing, and incapable of earning wealth because they created no consistent means of production. funny enough that's kind of exactly what's happened. people are going to college thinking wealth wealth wealth (not that it's their fault when they're not allowed to think anything else) and they end up utterly unemployed as all the necessary businesses are full and incapable of creating a business. they're not creating unions because there aren't enough businesses per individual being born for them to work at and if they manage to find a job it's always more advantageous for them to move to either a "prestigious opportunity" or one of the "only" regions with jobs left than to stay and fight for the first one they got. with nothing to fight for it's easy for the bourgeoisie to shove the smallest spark of resistance totally out and make them scramble to create a second rival bourgeoisie just to live. simultaneously businesses periodically fail just because they have trouble lasting forever, taking all their workers down with them. each failure of a capitalist hurts workers and gives an opening to a swath of new petty bourgeoisie that's enough to cause trouble but not enough to provide real relief to the unemployed population. they grow a bit, they enable really gigantic marketplace-owners that will get to keep the money forever, some of them drop away, one gets big and the hole in capitalism plugs back up. a little later another medium-sized business fails and the cycle starts again, or maybe towns just fill up with a bunch of tiny businesses that are constantly opening up and dying and causing confusion for everybody.

I feel like people's underlying biases when they talk about women's rights are directly creating things like having universities only consisting of non-political experts and getting science defunded, or statements that everyone should join up with center-Liberals that don't exist to create social-democratic programs when in reality that just creates a lot of dropouts from the Democrat "movement" and every existing program going away.

Richard Wolff said this once. but honestly, I think a great illustration is to open up <cite>Guardians of Ga'Hoole</cite> book 1. on one page there is a quote something like: "it's been a while since we've had a king." the book then proceeds to explain that owls have reverted from a kingdom to a warring states period.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">In the U.S., a tiny bit of economism is warranted -> this might be controversial. but from 30 years of experience living here, the people of the United States are often joined together only and solely by mathematics. no appeal to shared history, freedom, generosity, or empathy can actually join U.S. people together, although somehow the one thing that can join people together is economic imperatives like a corporation being there tomorrow and everyone having to go to the same corporation to receive a paycheck. people put up with their relatives almost solely because their relatives have money or able bodies while they don't actually like them or feel a bond to them. people join identity politics movements for selfish reasons of protecting themselves as much as for actually helping anyone else, graphed together by the promise of a bunch of people joined together winning rights and an elusive mathematics of graphs and people-blobs which might one day explain it. the whole concept of solidarity as some kind of moral or emotional connection or "the love of humanity" just doesn't really apply in the United States. talking as if employee types even have emotions left and aren't just hollow vessels of depression is almost itself an appeal to the bourgeoisie. the bourgeoisie have all sorts of time for marketing novels and talking about [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition|expression and emotion and Lived Experience]]. but as for any genuine workers that exist — for whatever five minutes they exist until being totally forced off business territories and being forced to start a new teeny precarious business — it's more useful to think of workers as devoid of emotion and being herded around by societal patterns and themselves to the things they "[[E:Anarchy is the most authoritarian thing there is|just have to do today]]" as if with cattle prods. the whole thing is held together with nothing but mathematics, there's no emotion in it. this leads me to feel like to fix it it's perfectly okay to appeal not to anything emotional but instead solely to new mathematics that people can recite as the thing they "just have to do today" equally as dispassionately.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Industrial work does not create wealth / Industrial work does not create wealth for individuals, it creates actively-flowing groups of people who are graphed together exchanging things with each other and who enjoy stability and surplus wealth for social programs only when they are strongly united -> at its basics, wealth is the possession of independent survival separate from all other members of society. peasant life generally possesses this unless somebody else claims the land from the peasants. industrial work does not create wealth in the same way, despite everyone's misleading metaphors about "the grasshopper and the ant". industrial work creates stuff: the material components of culture which do not necessarily have much value by themselves but are valuable precisely inasmuch as three corporations constantly producing them can sell them to each other. "stuff" is only meaningful as part of a structured graph arrangement of people, and ceases to be meaningful when the graph arrangements break and nobody will take it. simultaneously capitalists stupidly try to insist that graph arrangements breaking is normal, although to anyone with a brain that is the momentary absence of capitalism, not an actual process inside capitalism. saying that "market corrections" are part of capitalism is like saying that cats frequently dying of kidney failure is a useful and important part of cats; a bug in the system isn't a design. 
this question takes on a whole new dimension in light of anarchism. anarchists successfully understand that peasants had wealth more easily, but fail to understand the purpose of corporate products. the social purpose of corporate products is to make it easier to produce something useful without it having to be judged by the harsh immediate demands of survival — to make it possible to spend your time writing poetry or making watercolors of crows like a third of anarchists would love to do, instead of finding that because you're a woman and a mother dad said you had to watch the baby while he works with the cows. having to do work at the level of individual independence and survival has a lot of unintended consequences. independence and "wealth" make it hard to spend your time on children without accidentally resenting them or creating conflicts between the parents, while statistically at least half the population is going to have children. capitalism, at first, [[E:Capitalism dices countries into half a country per person|is just as bad about this]], but eventually makes it possible to chain together a bunch of corporations that are all in effect paying for each other's existence and have just enough productivity left over to provide inexpensive childcare. capitalism creates surplus wealth for a particular chunk of society at a time specifically because undirected graphs of people are all graphed together, vaguely like the way electrons are all graphed together across two atoms in a chemical bond. incidentally this benefit goes away when people allow Liberal-republicanism to [[E:multiple capitalisms in one country|divide people into two populations]] — the two populations don't graph together properly and the wealth doesn't get shared "across the bond" — although Deng Xiaoping Thought funny enough more or less fixes that, leaving China with an intact capitalism and in an objectively better stage of history than the United States. 
the big challenge for anarchists, or for Bolshevism, is to master graph economics. you can't even put a bunch of anarchists in a village and know the thing will hold together without knowing what the structures are and the inputs of every structure are in order to determine the other structures' outputs. industrial work does not create wealth. it creates graphs that are doing a verb. the republic is [[Term:republicking|republicking]], the town is towning, the village is villaging. this is the sense in which anarchism is indistinguishable from capitalism. Marxists say this accusation in a negative tone but it doesn't really have to be negative if anarchists simply didn't attack workers' states and stuck to peacefully creating tiny city-states that help workers' states on the off chance they're actually able to. the ideal scenario for anarchists is basically that you have a Soviet Union with 14 big republics and then you have like 300 teeny tiny city-states that are also part of the structure. I don't know how many, maybe it would only be like 20.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="F2">Industrial work creates hierarchies -> the problem with the concept is in the word "creates". if you stop at "industrial work ... hierarchies", then you've got it basically correct. when there is industrial work it is the case there are spatial hierarchies. but industrial work isn't the thing that creates them. industrial work is a response to them already being there, which attempts to solve them and make them less bad and more tractable. the end of that solving process looks like graphs that have been graphed together into the "shared electron" process of capitalism. 
anarchism is so... blockheaded. whenever you try to cover the things said in anarchism it comes out in such simple words I feel almost like I could explain why anarchism is false in toki pona. I would love to do that, just take one or two of these propositions and after it's written make a toki pona translation. the only real problem is I'm not "fluent", I don't have the standard usages and grammars down yet. but I do know in the mean time I can always make an en-x-pona page to later translate the toki pona from. I remember the first time I discovered [https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_English_Wikipedia simple english wikipedia] and not really thinking deeply about how many English learners there are I found it so funny. now even though I see "simple English" as a serious tool with broad application I still think it's fun. I still have a laugh at the notion of a complicated idea being "unrolled" into simple language to the point anyone should find it obvious. I hope someone else has as much fun with the en-x-pona pages as I will.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S">Science is discovered independent of cultures -> the question of whether science is a cultural construct is rather complicated. I feel like to answer it properly you have to separate out "the scientific method" from "an ontological model discovered through science which is now a field of study at a university". when you're talking about the second thing, you can absolutely argue that science is a social construct, specifically because each field of study contains assumptions or hastily accepted hypotheses and could always contain important errors. say that clinical testing is a field of study, but in practice the whole field of clinical testing has almost exclusively tested treatments on men. this would lead clinical testing to be a social construct which contains scientific errors and which would have to be updated through the scientific method into a better construct.

I think using ancient Egypt is a good thought experiment because it doesn't run into problems of tribal populations a really long time ago simply not being able to get the apparatus to test things; the single, sole advantage of class society is that it has wealth. tribal populations today are very different because they can make the journey to industrial centers if they really want to, so the major issue that comes up today is the will or decision-making power of different populations to be able to do things on particular land areas or "impose forms of science". anyway it's less complex to do this with ancient empires or very large populations versus small tribal populations; if you want to do this with tribal populations you use today's indigenous populations rather than the ones that existed a long time ago.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S">For historical materialism to be a science, it has to be doable for people in any period of history -> Newtonian physics is a science because the overall set of patterns of Newtonian physics could have been studied in any historical period given the right equipment and ingenuity to design tests. psychology is a science because despite many different models of psychological phenomena throughout the decades and slow refinement, the underlying phenomena are the same in any historical period. historical materialism has a unique challenge that the substrate of people underneath it changes each historical period, creating difficulties for applying the science the same way in all historical periods. in one period you have a wealthy pseudo-landlord doing physics. in another period you have a university Careerist type who is also privileged. in the future there may be more genuine workers in science — if the proletariat is restored at all, of course. a very long time ago you are looking basically at royal appointees and priests. but when the topic of science turns into historical materialism, you have to turn these different groups of people around to study themselves. and that could be challenging, simply to get people to comprehend the idea of a different group of people thinking about something in the future than the group they're in. try thinking about your own death and somebody else consciously observing the world every day in place of you. that always feels a little off; the human mind inherently has trouble comprehending anybody else being conscious instead of itself. I think the same thing is true for plural groups of people existing in the present. a group of White Southern Baptist Christians, no matter how nice they are, will have a little trouble imagining zapping their perception over to India where people in India are conscious instead of them, and vice versa the other direction. this in turn makes it hard to understand the concept of a whole other class subpopulation of people, who manages to exist in the very same country as you and yet isn't you and is consciously perceiving the world instead of you. to someone who has never experienced it, the whole concept of another class probably feels like one of those weird science fiction scenarios like [[E:It's easier to imagine impossible matter fractals than the end of capitalism|discovering your universe is only an atom in another universe and you never knew]]. even a group of workers in the 1930s United States would find it hard to predict the 2020s where the proletariat has been shoved off the area of the country and everyone has been turning into hostile warring factions of bourgeoisie. to be able to comprehend historical processes that might happen in each period you really have to [[E:meta-Marxism|see outside yourself]] and see all the groups of people that exist, all the classes, all the factions consisting of plural [[Term:Social-Philosophical System|class-subpopulations each with a local ideology inside]]. but, if you can do that you're set. you're ready, in any historical period, to comprehend the possible futures that could happen.

I would like to know. when I read Marxist history texts I feel like I learned a lot more about it than I knew before. but there are always times when I freak out about the concept that the separation between populations of people as material objects is always stronger than anyone's ability to reason or intuit about what other populations are feeling and any attempt to have empathy or think about the problems of other groups of people could potentially offend someone, because you didn't predict the thing that was literally actually in their mind which was the only tone in which it was acceptable to speak about them at all. it makes me afraid regarding the potential for diplomacy between groups of people, how or whether it is even possible in a world where anyone is like this.

on why this isn't sound: people like predictability. people tend to take unpredictability as indistinguishable from rudeness, hostility, or malice — because, to be fair, a lot of actual malice [[E:Vegeta effect|pops up totally unpredictably]]. when big eruptions of violence happen, people are very happy when they stop. when small incidents of violence happen, people can become terrified just because they never know when it stops, and they will look for the nearest pattern they can see to try to find a causal mechanism that can stop it. this means some people will look at "termite violence", see a recurring pattern of "Black people", and start judging all Black people or even retaliating at all Black people with their own "termite violence" just to stop a presumed pattern of "toxic Black culture".

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Greed is not a good model because in order for people to not be greedy they all need to have a big pile of education that isn't necessarily materially available to them -> note that "information being available" and "education being available" are very different things. misinformation is incredibly cheap. real education is always more expensive. information which contains education has to be checked over by somebody. it has to be compiled based on previous sources that cost someone money, even if it's the library paying. somebody has to pay to publish the education, and somebody has to make calculations of the correct people to sell it to in order to have enough money to print it in the first place. various people inside that supply chain or industrial structure all have to pay to have the training or experience to do all of their roles effectively, and it's an uncertain leap for all those people to decide they can definitely succeed at what they're doing well enough to justify all the spending they'll have to do to get to do the risky thing in the first place. so in this weird way, greed is required to successfully produce enough education to educate people to not be greedy. say capitalist Bob is making all kinds of terrible anti-human decisions about all the businesses underneath him. if he is totally content as he is, he won't think education to become better is "worth paying for" with his money or effort. so in order to just get capitalist Bob who has all the money to change himself the whole rest of the population will have to pay to make that education really easy and basically free to the point it is almost more difficult for him to not bump into it and start reading it out of boredom. if you think of all education in the framing of bibles, every piece of information considered critical to humanity has to be as easy to obtain at a used book store for a few cents as a Christian bible is — go to a book sale, and there are even some of them where just the bibles are free. the astronomical amount of labor from all people in an entire country to make every critical piece of information both that easy to obtain and that easy to fact-check for the crustiest Tory who never uses the internet is what's required to make the model of "greed" or "insensitivity" even make any sense. yes, any person can change their mind. yes, you'll have to work 18 hour days where a whole lot of your effort isn't paid at all and can't be solved by "donating to charity" to make it happen, where the amount of effort required might take away from your children and your recreation and your social relationships which aren't directly to progressive people with some involvement in movements and from your novel-writing and your cat. a lot of anarchists never stop and think about this, how much difficult labor it actually takes to produce a lot of anything, including a lot of easily available quality education, and how much labor they'd have to do just to preserve the principle of freedom and every change in society coming from individual free choice or from supposedly spawning that indirectly through the pressure of "termite violence".

I've always been confused why Marxism wasn't already meta-Marxism. why wouldn't Marxists test their models against each other for accuracy, and why would Marxists end up dividing into different competing versions of Marxism that become unfalsifiable?

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Waiting for people to die is hatred / Waiting for people to die is as bad as hatred -> there is this really huge contradiction in the way everyone defines prejudices in the United States. normal people believe that every bad thing comes from prejudices. it's bad to be prejudiced. but for some reason it's okay to take the group of everyone who has prejudices and hate it. it's even okay to say things like "when the boomers die out", although logically that should be a prejudiced statement because you don't want them to exist or physically live and you want to squash their inner experience and everything they think and feel. isn't that statement just the act of passively killing them very slowly? I think the bible verse about hatred is truer backward: people dying is the same as hatred, people dying is as bad as hatred. if you frame it that way it's easier to conceptualize what the definition of hatred should actually be. in my mind hatred is when Trotsky exists but you don't like anything about him and you don't want him to exist, and you won't go to the active effort to make it possible for Trotsky to coexist with all the followers of Stalin, actually in real life, actually taking into account the goals and desires of both groups of people and realizing both of them instead of making a compromise that crudely squashes one of them to have the other, like, you have to build a world which realizes Trotskyism to some extent that Trotskyists eventually agree with even though it is limited by the rules of reality, instead of a world which acts to prevent Trotskyism, to the point that Trotskyism and mainstream Marxism-Leninism both exist and they both acknowledge each other as part of each other even though they began with different content and are not the same entity and have to actively get to know a new entity in order to predict and merge with that entity. an odd metaphor when applied to anything else, but it really illustrates what the problem with anything else is: if you want Protestants and Catholics to coexist or White Southern Baptist Christians and Black people to coexist, etc, you need to understand that each countable group of people realizes differently and builds different things and it's the Social-Philosophical-Material content that is realized out of each group of people that brings culture clashes. culture clashes don't come from abstract ideas and attitudes, they come from people realizing clashing material behaviors like Black people are saying slang words like "cook" or whatever it might be and White people actually hate that realized behavior because they prefer another behavior for them to do and everyone to do. a countable group of disabled people realizes the behavior of building ramps and a countable group of able-bodied people wants to realize a different behavior that is most natural in their group. so to get people to stop culture-clashing you actually have to get people to agree on the particular, not the abstract, to actually do and like specific realized behaviors which are not ideas at all but are acts of existing and being in a certain way. if it were true that hatred was an idea, then everyone around the world would immediately love neopronouns and unnecessarily-specific gender labels just because they don't want to be hateful, but that isn't how things work. acceptance and tolerance is always creepily conditioned on how well you can twist and contort normal people to pretend to not be normal and enjoy it as an active way of existing and being and making every daily decision and directing the whole of their Free Will and identity assuming that either of those exist toward the specific end of not being themselves as they were yesterday and being somebody new. it genuinely doesn't make sense to comprehend tolerance through individual freedom, because to truly tolerate someone not just where you're hiding your hatred but at the level where you could become friends is to overwrite and destroy individual identity and freedom, and the only question is whether this is a good thing. I think there's a decent argument to be made that it is, but it is nothing like [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialism]] and the way that everybody ever tries to comprehend freedom and The Subject. this is a new philosophy I have no name for. I already named entropicism. maybe I should name this one too. this is, uh... the ego-death philosophy of tolerance and friendship, I don't know how to make that snappy. this is the philosophy where instead of Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash being friends and gelling into a team because they're unique different competing individuals who each separately want freedom, Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash are friends because they agree to become each other in part if never in whole and abandon the parts of them that are harmful to them being friends. under this paradigm, [[E:Starlight Glimmer|Starlight Glimmer]] creates her [[E:Pol Pot|Pol Pot]] village and it's up to the Ponies in it to either become the new culture in part as they become part of the new culture, or leave, and there's nothing heroic about them leaving as individuals versus staying as a group; the village does not have to exist but if it does the success of the village depends on them working together and not being too selfish to be part of society. I wonder how different that show would be if it was written under that ethos. all those weird repetitive "be yourself" plots in the last season would probably be different and maybe even better written. like just imagine if there was an episode where a Pony was getting mocked and bullied in Ponyville or one of the main locations but it was because they were too much of a free individual to stay in Totally Not Eastern Europe; their own greedy individuality [[E:The Soviet diaspora was a second Trail of Tears|left them with nothing and turned them into a minority somewhere else]] constantly getting picked on by others.

I think it's fairly possible to argue this. definitely in fake cases like Bolshevism supposedly having a dictator it applies, but it also applies in real cases like {{Term:Wasp Swarm}}s and Donald Trump or Ron DeSantis, and Protestants joining up with a Protestant king to squash Catholics. it even applies to the fake case of anarchists and Existentialists turning their backs on Trotsky claiming Trotskyists are a collective dictator that is trying to make them conform to Trotskyism. this seems like a solid model of what causes human beings to label things "dictator" or try to define the concept of a [[E:generalized dictator|generalized dictator]].

I think there's a fundamental role played by separate populations such as countries and towns which wasn't well captured by Marx. and I think this is exemplified really clearly and simply by the emergence of early Trotskyism. you look at Trotsky and Zinoviev and their at-most-five-or-so Marxist theorists that started the conspiracy. they just wanted something to belong to, but the Soviet Union didn't really want them, and subtly pushed them out. (they think it wasn't subtle and was so blatant they could outline it like a conspiracy, but that's simply not historically accurate. if anything there was just an undesigned motion of the whole system of people, the central party and ministries and "bureaucrats" and so forth, slowly nudging them out as they didn't fit in and didn't understand it.) Trotsky's accounts of the Russian revolution are, a bit amusingly, often personal stories centered on him, but there is something specific that sifts out of that. the notion that some people are Marxist theorists but the only thing that strongly connects them to anything is a shared bond to a countable culture. you toss Trotsky out of this utterly miraculous bond made of little more than friendship that should never have been able to happen from the point of view of basic Marxist theory and he's going to be pretty mad. the act of tossing out theorists can cause a population to start slowly dividing as if it were some kind of biological cell sorting all the chromosomes into one side and the other side. I think there was a little bit of intellectual dishonesty in the Soviet Union where they did not want to acknowledge the possibility that even if the country would not naturally divide by regenerating the bourgeoisie your local theorists are the glue holding the country together and the whole thing could crack into multiple countries starting from the top. now, it's not like Trotsky was the keystone and if you get rid of him the whole thing comes crumbling down, but it is like the structure could break anywhere but because Trotsky is one of the weakest links ready to snap it all started there. you listen to these dumb capitalist-aligned sources talk about the Soviet Union and they say things like, the ministries and local party-nations were so bloated, having a level of state businesses is too much government, I couldn't stand having soviets in my town!! and basically none of that truly makes any sense. but when you take a perspective more from inside the country you see there were weaknesses most people don't really talk about. countries themselves are fragile in their own way; sometimes it's the simple notion we can make 300 million [[E:Subjects eat and occupy space|eating space-occupying organisms]] coexist instead of fight each other that's arrogant. and so Liberal-republicans will go thinking that sending 200 hostile representatives to compete against each other won't go badly and won't eventually devolve into blood feuds between sections of Alabama. party-nations are a lot less bad, being made on the basis of cooperation to start with. but sometimes there can still be cracks in them that threaten to tear an otherwise united population apart. there hasn't been enough thought in Marxism about the concept that every population is a material object, just as much as a block of ice is a unique material object and it would be a different collection of material objects if you broke it in two. there's been this consistent motif throughout what seems like all Marxism that for any given collection of people the only thing dividing the proletariat is it being stuck under the bourgeoisie and the simple need for everyone to get out of there will unite everyone permanently. but I honestly doubt it's that simple. how can it be that Trotskyists believe this, and early Marxists believe this, and Stalin believes this, but Trotsky and Stalin can get into a fight about how to free everybody around the world and unify everybody around the world? that shouldn't be possible. unless the content of what they are each trying to do is different even when Trotskyists do become Leninists, or there is something fundamental about two groups currently being separate objects that makes them compete and fight until they are literally one object that physically cannot fight itself any more. the latter one scares me a bit so I tend to focus on the first one hoping that one could be true. the notion that we only need to fix the content of our Marxisms and make them interlock together from the inside is a nice idea. I'm not absolutely certain it's true or the most important thing but it does give me a starting point that's not depressing.

I think this gets marked false for the wrong reasons. I think what really happens is economics is based on scarce gold bars or scarce production-acts while the number of houses is separate and irrelevant to what scarcity even practically is and has been. products aren't even scarce, partly because people will swap out non-fungible things for each other in a way that is hard to measure. people will use old things. people will use one thing for the other thing. in the early United States people could just claim land and it wasn't scarce yet. even now, the United States has a great land area. so scarcity of land was created by giving plots of land "brains" and letting them say no. The Subject caused land to be available exactly when it wants to form a graph connection. suddenly it started to become that every product within supply chains was synonymous with arrangements of people and the availability of people-graphs — with these diminishing pyramids of how much choice people actually have in being part of a people-graph. that's the really dumb thing about the cybernetics research group — if capitalism were actually about "time" or decision-making, then you wouldn't be able to stop it because it would have taken up all your Free Will and decision-making ability before you could even think about stopping it and build a cybernetics research group. Free Will and the ability to affect history are incidental to capitalism, which is why people can resist it no matter how much it takes away people's "time" and "control".

(I believe this is because inside it all people are actually participating in and regenerating [[:Category:Existentialist-Structuralist tradition ontology|Existentialism]] and getting Liberalism as an emergent effect.)

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">If attacking religion is bad, then attacking people's faith in Donald Trump is also bad -> what becomes logically true if you strictly hold that it is wrong to tell people religion is not materially true. it's bad to tell people that religion is not accurate to reality because that's always, inevitably a microaggression against countable cultures, and microaggressions are unthinkable? okay, let's roll with that. sociologically, people's fascination with political candidates serves a very similar role to religion, grouping them into countable cultures and giving them something to hope for by giving them other people to support them and someone to lead them as a group. it's the sheer act of putting people into a group which has the material power to fight and crush other groups that gives people hope; said another way, any act of hiding in a group to gain hope is an act of [[Term:magic ritual|magic ritual]]. it can be argued that magic ritual is sacred in the sense that anyone who does not respect it is simply bashing countable cultures and refusing to be friends with them and understand their point of view. therefore, when people band together behind Donald Trump to protect them from progressives, listen to Fox News, and get together to push demographics out of everywhere and out of the United States, all of that must be understood as an indispensable cultural tradition. this statement is contradictory, of course. if all religions and spiritualities are indispensable cultural traditions, but one of them is built on oppressing the others, but it's still an indispensable cultural tradition in practice, then allowing religion naturally leads to religion itself forcefully extincting religion and magic ritual — just because it is religion. tolerance and "moderation" are not a substitute for historical materialism and the material study of ongoing interaction between populations, and really never have been.

I wish the United States would drop the concept that "systemic" problems are made of ideas and attitudes when that is not at all what "system" usually means, and what it almost always suggests is an arrangement of material moving parts which is distinguishable from other arrangements of moving parts. if all "systems" are just clouds of individuals they aren't distinct from each other as systems and you can't change them. well, unless you literally forcibly change ethnicities and demographics themselves. given that clouds of individuals are equivalent to countable cultures.

I think the question to ask here on motifs like these is this. if you don't arrest the kulaks and put them in Gulag or whatever happens to them, and you insist on tent of freedom poles, what hypothetically happens? assume that whatever they did was relatively bad. they did something at least as morally questionable as casually posting on twitter that "when I say 13% of the population commits 50% of the crimes they all get so fired up but they know they're wrong and pathetic". on rare occasion there are recorded historical incidents where kulak types would shoot well-liked public officials if they had the opportunity. they're your "January-6ers". they're bad news. so what are you going to do with those? they're not going to listen to anything you say just because they want to be nice. if they could retreat to their peasant life and survive but watch 90% of society die, which in the kulaks' case they can, there's a nonzero chance they'd be the kind of person to just take that option, which we have decent reason to believe looks closer to 50% than 1%. kulaks aren't the ones dutifully paying taxes to help people exist. so what are you going to do with them? 
the typical answer you see is "community". "community, community, community", as if culture and community have the power to solve everything. but let's say that actually worked. everyone bombards the kulaks with good values. they don't behave. they don't want to contribute. they act like people trying to integrate them into a community is uncalled for. people ramp efforts to saturate everyone with Community. when the kulaks don't participate everyone just starts utterly boycotting them and going "you can't buy products from that region, that's where the kulaks live and they don't like Community, you have to buy from these good regions". they effectively isolate all the kulaks into an island and turn them into their own tiny nation that is being embargoed and starved of anything they can't create themselves. this only exacerbates tensions between the two groups of people. if people recognized as being from the kulak region go into one of the progressive cities they're going to be treated with utter prejudice. if any of the progressive regions go through a really hard time and we assume the Soviet population is anarchist instead of Communist, some people are just going to attack the kulaks and steal their stuff because they feel like that's the justified thing to do to people that have spat in their face and never helped them. the whole thing would start morphing into a warring states period or a blood feud really really quickly. you're going to be killing them or firing guns at them one day just because you belong to two incompatible populations that don't want to be part of one Community while anarchists are busy enforcing a wrong model that Community is universal and automatic. if you really want to not kill the kulaks then it's a very bad idea to be an anarchist or a psychoanalyst, no matter who you are, even right this second. you have a far greater chance of an outcome where they keep their lives if you allow Bolshevism and you allow a central government to enforce laws on every population rather than making everything about the social relationships between individuals or populations, which can turn very abusive.

I feel like the mere existence of a huge population and a small population is colonialism to some extent — particularly if you want to say "colonialism" is largely defined as prejudice and populations hating each other. I feel like you could have a world where every White person transitioned to postcolonial anarchism and the indigenous populations were still experiencing racism, and maybe even upset that White people are trying to be part of a single countable culture while marginalizing other parts of it almost exactly the way people assert everyone in Liberal-republicanism is part of the same society and then marginalize people out of society.

Isaac Newton didn't know there wasn't one big linear flow of spacetime, so he cursed science with "linear time". then Albert Einstein showed up and laid out a model where if anything has an approximately linear flow of time then there are billions of them going in parallel and none of them is "the real one". so, we start with relativity. for any particular Group Subject with so-called "cybernetic flows" inside, let's say it's a Trotskyist party to be funny, that Group Subject [[Term:reterminism|retermines]] stuff about itself using its internal elements and the things immediately surrounding it. if there is a big bad Communist Party of the Soviet Union in the way, the Trotskyist party will do what it can to plan around its environment and realize Trotskyism, its preferred so-called "fiction". this happens on a timetable specific to and emerging from the Trotskyist party, while the CPSU may have a different timeline of how it wants to realize its own plans. there is nothing particularly cosmic about this in a magic-ritual or sci-fi time travel sense. the CPSU doesn't actually distort spacetime and take causality away from the Trotskyist party. both of them still have a timeline on which they can act to the degree they are capable. but, even so, when the two groups interact with their surrounding reality and each other, some possibilities collapse into more disappointing ones as a product of all the directions of interaction. whatever "fiction" (sociophilosophy or ontology) you come up with, it will always be affected by the presence of other "fictions" busy realizing themselves in relativistic time. all the fictions are realizing at once, some of them succeeding and some of them not succeeding, and the ones that don't successfully realize only keep getting screwed over by the successful ones in a vicious cycle. so the deal with Newtonian linear time is that it's an effect of sociophilosophies defeating each other, not a cause. linear time is only an outward perception of the result of what happened, but because it's a result, you can't simply fight it to fix the inner causal process. man. if the chaos magicians had just stopped with the notion of realizing fictions and never ever said anything about time, I would have been more receptive to it.

I think there's at least some amount of an argument, maybe not rock-solid exactly, that it understands art on a higher level. the level where art has already succeeded and transported us to the new reality it has fabricated. shouldn't it be the highest praise of art having succeeded when people are actually living in that reality for a moment?

[https://www.protevi.com/john/SEDAAG.pdf] I'll say it out loud: two people is not a hierarchy. in the medieval sense, a hierarchy covers a whole kingdom, or a significantly large local state likely not bigger than Italy. words are whatever, but that's the definition of why hierarchies are actually important to anything. because they're big. the concept of hierarchy is not relevant to the study of historical revolutions unless you have a concept of hierarchy which refers to large structures instead of specifically to relationships. anyway. the major fallacy here is thinking that forming a population-society will not cause new "hierarchies", when in reality it could, simply as a requirement of realizing itself into a viable structure. it could be that you have to form things the anarchists think are "hierarchies" to get a large group of people free from something larger than that. to not admit that is basically to commit Trotsky's world population fallacy and erase the existence of countable cultures and ethnicity and language and religion and racism. the differences populations raise between themselves are connected to the existence of populations as separate interacting objects, which creates borders, which creates internal structure and Archons. this is why you need to conceptualize freedom as a different internal structure within the same populational unit or units.

[https://www.protevi.com/john/SEDAAG.pdf] was just barely unsaid but could smell it all over the thing. why are people like this? why is determinism so scary to them? as I say I swear most people don't even know what determinism is. determinism is the mere ability to describe things as differential equations and manifolds, like Deleuze did. he used it to explain Hegel. if there isn't determinism you couldn't describe everything with math. I find almost nothing more baffling than the way psychoanalysts (and schizoanalysis) are absolutely obsessed with math almost more than scientists are and then they also get obsessed with the individual and how you supposedly have to resist anything that could threaten to predetermine The Subject. why does nobody see the terrible contradiction between these two things? I swear we should just abolish the term scientism and make a new term of math-ism when you're over-applying math. that would make Marxism challenging but still possible. it would kill psychoanalysis though

Deleuze. have you ever been a Trotskyist. that's a silly question to pretty much everyone but genuinely, have you ever had to deal with groups of people breaking apart and not going back together? if you actually did you'd know that things really do differentiate. there's almost an entropy arrow for groups of people just like there is for chemistry, where when a group of people breaks apart there are specific "chemistry" changes that make that tearing apart hard to run backwards. this is part of the definition of history, I feel like. the entropy arrow that makes things like a national independence movement or an organization disintegrating hard to reverse and more of a permanent creation of new conditions, new characteristics for the involved entities.

Liberal-republicanism can seem so pointless at times because although people sort of get to argue over the rights of demographic subpopulations, there is this tiny crust of representatives and experts and owners that actually "receives" the rights when most people don't even really get anything. are you a disabled senator? movements for human rights will probably be perfect for you. are you anybody else? tough luck. this is the thing. I make fun of Trotskyism and anarchism at times because sometimes they really have no idea what they're even saying. but at the core of it you have this very sympathetic problem of the book-intelligent Trotsky figure who should be good for something and is thrown out of his society because this particular crust of really elite representatives who are good at what they do and better at things than anyone else totally invalidates the guy as having any place in the country and leaves him not able to articulate what the problem with anything even is beyond "I think I am mad at The Bureaucrats". and I'm tired of that too. on one hand people need to not have entirely stupid interpretations of Marxism, but on the other, if they would only listen, I don't really want people thrown out like that.

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Wars are hierarchical -> I think there's a pretty good argument for this given any definition of what a hierarchy is. given the medieval definition of a layout of people which is conflated with owning individuals of particular classes, a war easily turns into a Napoleonist phenomenon with one population-government stomping over the top of the other and trying to extract debts or treaties. given the crude definition used by anarchists, a war is the act of leaping one State over another population to enforce a particular way of being, which is to say one population is more important than another. this is the fundamental contradiction that comes up whenever an anarchism tries to build itself entirely out of secret operations. that turns the whole thing into a hierarchical activity putting one Social-Philosophical System over another Social-Philosophical System. this wouldn't be a problem if the SPS in question wasn't an anarchism, and was a Marxism or something. Che can try to make the case that a Marxist war on another country that only takes out the owners is justified, because he's not basing his entire theory on "hierarchy" and whether hierarchy is bad, he is basing the justification for wielding power on how important it is to realize a proletarian civilization. all Marxisms know on some level that they are an incomplete group of people competing against the rest of the world, and the concept of hierarchy isn't good for describing an all-directional conflict, but anarchisms somehow don't know that.

</li><li class="field_anarchy" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Civilians are a social construct -> I think this is the major fallacy the deep end of anarchism believes. it's obvious to Marxists that there exists such a thing as civilians, and maybe even that the existence of civilians creates the boundaries between different countable Cultures and different parallel national histories. but it doesn't seem like anarchists find that obvious. they seem to easily devolve into a population of soldiers with no civilians out of some weird tendency to assume that anyone who is a civilian is being programmed not to resist The State — as if there is just one State and not one separate State for every population including some political parties or ethnicities inside national populations. newsflash, deep-end anarchists: you are The State. you've transformed your whole population into The State. the only question remaining is whether that's categorically bad, which admittedly is an open question.

Existentialist-Structuralists and the bourgeoisie, maybe justifiably if Trotskyists knew anything. mainstream Marxist-Leninists are afraid of Trotskyists because they think there will be another secret operation to explode workers' states that basically dumps a cascade of racism on Third World countries for no reason. anarchists are afraid of Trotskyists because if they know anything they will build Hierarchy and The Bureaucracy (ironically). I think the history of secret operations as they have already happened shows that anarchism really isn't what anarchists think it is. no matter how nice or how violent anarchism is, it's always the formation of a new countable Culture, which is localized to not all the world's people and has to have a border because it has new internal content. you can theoretically tear open a revolution on any basis, not worrying about who is and isn't the proletariat, but if you do that you absolutely must know what its internal content is. you have to have rudimentary knowledge of the structure of the new society in order to stabilize the new forming entity which inevitably won't contain all the world's people and will inevitably have a border.

I think this is just some weird phenomenon of societal mitosis where regardless of where classes are at populations simply go insane and rip themselves in two. they think they're achieving something by "doing something" and carrying out attacks, but they're actually going precisely nowhere. the crisis that populations go through is that people stop being able to expand into and over each other even though everyone is expanding, and the easiest, crudest way to resolve it is to just take the population and rip it anywhere so there is one more hard border between all the expansion, or at least so that there is no more expectation that if the new populations expand over each other there won't be war. it's like one of the best results of these "stress fractures" would be East Germany, which is what happens when the proletarian subpopulation or lowest-ranked people all end up on one side of the rift and the high-ranked people end up on the other. this + ??? = East Germany is indistinguishable from an anarchism

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="618" data-dimension="S">interdemocracy between eating, breathing space-occupiers -> the only way out of capitalism. Liberal-republicanism very vaguely recognizes the idea of interdemocracy, but not the concept of people actually being living things that eat and occupy space. anarchism partially recognizes people as living, breathing organisms, but totally rejects the concept of interdemocracy. Marxism has never been properly ready for interdemocracy between Marxisms. a "democracy" of existence itself and populations themselves would be a genuinely new thing.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Any ideology which would toss one specific Archon in prison to fix a population and change nothing else is an anarchism -> I'm not sure if this is true, but it certainly seems like a decent distinction between Marxist versus non-Marxist ideologies. alternatively, it could be the distinction between Marxism and Existentialism, where anarchism and Existentialism are not the same thing. I think one potential problem with this is it threatens to label Deng Xiaoping Thought a named Anarchism; in practice it tends to run on things like regulating capitalism by finding specific bad actors and bringing down penalties on them while leaving everyone else "free" of state intervention to do capitalism. that doesn't feel like a correct categorization. I think it's fair to claim that anarchism doesn't truly exclude a State from forming in real life, and real-life Anarchisms probably will have States, but even so I don't think a huge party-nation with a parliament building sounds like an Anarchism. I definitely don't know enough anarchist theory to say why. all I know is from the angle of Marxism if you have chunk competition and elite winners of Careerism or investing who take charge of particular chunks, practically speaking those should be the Archons, and anything which is purposefully leaving Archons around materially couldn't construct a logically-coherent realizable named Anarchism as a theory, so it shouldn't make sense to call it anarchism right now.
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Regulating businesses is anarchism -> it sounds weird to any anarchists, but it's the logical conclusion of getting rid of hierarchy being about tossing out specific bad actors who are the Archons. you've got potentially half a million Archons to toss in prison for violations, are you really ready for that much statism?

Jewish texts were passed to Jewish Christians, who then were Christians, and then I think what basically happened was Christianity was divided into common people and literal emperors and the emperors or upper classes of each kingdom overshadowed everyone else and created the new interpretation. the whole issue of people "misinterpreting" Christianity is bizarrely a class issue from the moment it first appeared all the way through to today.

I am still confused and trying to figure out how the hell a Communist text was totally appropriated by anticommunists to mean that somehow we can purge racism out of everything and we have to before there can be workers' movements.

I think that's a really difficult question. but the one thing I know is Epic-of-Gilgamesh type stories are a really bad way to go about it. if Sun Wukong wants to preserve his population... isn't that what every population wants? doesn't every single population not want to be subject to genocide? so, to cast the concept of preserving a population through the lens of an individual king wanting to stay in power just seems totally wrong. existence is not a king, but more like the republic itself. it doesn't make sense to characterize existence as a form of power that needs to be limited as much as something you want to take the locus of power out of and understand as a bunch of connected moving parts.

I mean, it's true that the concept of individual effort being connected to the ability of individuals or towns to live is bogus. there are many kinds of effort that are simply wasted, and where "laziness" would have been just as good. primitive Existentialism sucks. but the real problem with people "being lazy" is that towns need a balance of particular things and individuals need a particular amount of connection to other people that recognize them as useful (income) to raise their children. it doesn't seem like the streamers who are arguing that YouTube channels are productive have thought through what would would happen if all the people doing important basic things in other towns turned out to be reactionaries and disconnected from them. so, the only kind of laziness that exists is people being lazy about forming the correct social graphs that are totally resistant to reactionaries. but almost everyone has it.

edit: there's a second way of looking at this, which is a bit simpler. The Subject is a living animal. living animals reproduce at some steady rate indefinitely without regard for the consequences, by nature of being life. put together The Subject in a ring of people, a tent of freedom poles, and they will all help each other reproduce indefinitely without regard for the consequences. Community Is A Cancer. 
are there ways Existentialists and anarchists can try to refute this? of course. one of them is to say that war is good and Europe is thriving because World War I happened but it ended — the United States isn't thriving because no other empire was there to challenge it on the same level, so it stomped the other populations and wilfully started fighting itself. if you think this is an atrocious state of affairs, that's fair, but it does line up with the history of civilizations over the past century where a ton of conflicts have been between giant global powers over the top of buffer states, notably Poland and East Germany. "Communities" can't halt their own expansion with just Community.

I kept thinking, the protagonist speaks like no actual human being and the characters don't talk about anything as if they were experiencing it as much as if everything was a bunch of floating propositions. but then I saw the game get polished from its earlier drafts to where it was a little more convincing. so maybe none of this is bad writing. maybe the game is planning some crazy twist where the things all the characters were saying at first weren't meant to be believable, and were all misdirects. maybe it's here to blow our minds by first setting up a strange, surreal, not-quite-believable setting of dragon capitalism and then the actual point is to shatter those expectations and show that genuinely none of it made any sense and here's the way dragons are supposed to live instead. the funny thing? if that was the point I'd probably like the story. you didn't portray civilizations as utopian, but you did metatransitional realism instead of just [[redlink - Wings of Fire|assuming]] dragon tribes are made of culture and Free Will. even if the depicted transition is effectively an Anarchism that is an achievement.

some Existentialist theories like poststructuralism and schizoanalysis appear to believe this. there are different ways to cast this proposition: MX) prejudices are not obviously bad, so it is not possible to simply convince everyone prejudices being bad is obvious and have that be the truth because it will never be obvious. you need to convince people of something that actually includes prejudices being impossible to operate on directly.

I think this proposition is very illuminating when it comes to describing a correct Marxism and the way correct Marxisms emerge in the processes of history. like, try to explain schizoanalysis to a child. so, Timmy, the reason people don't unify into a single country is stereotypes, but when people break out of stereotypes, they have to join together around a specific required culture anyway, which is not stereotypes, and doesn't mean the bigger country assimilating people into it is okay, because the bigger country is based on Liberalism, which is supposed to be anarchism but isn't, because the greedy expansion people invented big business and turned everyone into wage slaves, but people turning away from all billionaires isn't stereotypes because they all believe the same Ideals so that means they chose to be that way. no, Timmy, Ideals aren't culture. I know Chinese people believe in Confucianism sometimes and that's technically culture and it's also a conscious choice but you see it's not Ideals because it's not inside individuals even though individuals ultimately made it up. yes, Power Rangers believe in Ideals. yes, [https://zootopia.fandom.com/wiki/Judy_Hopps Judy Hopps] believes in Ideals. no, the herbivore population doesn't join together around Ideals and become a Culture. stereotypes are not Ideals, Timmy. oh. oh no... you'll have to repeat that.

The State mediates conflicts over the ability of social chunks to eat and occupy space. when Liberal-republican "democracy" is created the representatives of different chunks all contribute to creating The State, although the representatives do not equal The People. what this means practically is chunks of people compete for the right to submit the set of ideas that will rule everyone. but even if representatives were perfect reflections, The People don't really choose what sets of ideas they believe as individuals, they determine them as whole groups that already enforce group ideas on all their individuals. there is something like a tiny undemocratic "republic" inside groups of people before there is any government at all, or even any capitalists — essentially, The Spanishness Office. (the big mistake people make is less thinking it exists at all than thinking it's controllable.) as a result, the Spaniards Machine sputters along spitting out both what people are going to believe and who people's representatives will be, designing and placing people to obey it while oppressing them at the same time; there isn't even really any "manufacturing consent" step in the middle where people choose to be oppressed, the reason people support bad things is they're literally already part of them from the beginning, before they're educated, before anything. ISAs are the societies while The State is their apparatus. anyway. chunks of people which already contain Spaniards Machines generate representatives that represent the Spaniards Machine, the Social-Philosophical System. this leads to Social-Philosophical Systems themselves pushing each other back and forth fighting over parliament (hegemony politics), and fighting over the country. each Spaniards Machine is a tiny nation of ideas already, even if it may also have racist ideas that it is a superior cluster of White people, or whatever. this means when they fight each other over a republic, and inevitably play hegemony politics of "this is a rust country now", "this is a sky country now and all the rust people have to obey sky rules continuously spat out every day by the sky-colored Spaniards Machine", all they can practically achieve is creating a population-to-population hierarchy of one Spaniards Machine directly ruling the other.

I wish academics would like, speak in logically-coherent sentences. it doesn't matter what words you use but please use them to convey concepts that make any logical sense and are at all comprehensible. 
like let's break this statement down. what is essentialism? it's enforcing particular mandatory characteristics on something that are claimed to be in it from the dawn of time. what's strategic essentialism? it's creating people who must unite around a specific definition of what they are. now, how can that be anti-essentialist? whether it's anti-essentialist has nothing to do with whether it's good or bad, it can be good either way. why argue that it's anti-essentialist? what does that get anyone? 
this is the shovel dream of Existentialism being a method of physically organizing individuals into identity groups. Existentialism is partly a theory that people can only be arranged by whether arbitrary tribes of people like each other and want to be friends or want to shatter apart and fight each other at which point you can't keep them together — very bad theory for solving racism, as it horribly contradicts itself when it comes time to force racists to be friends with Black people that they utterly hate and want Freedom from. this causes people to think of everything in terms of prejudice and essentializing people into stereotypes, and to make up weird statements like grouping people into a movement being a way to fight against The Stereotypers, therefore it's "anti-essentialist", even though it's rather literally not. it's as essentialist as Stalin saying Georgians have to do specific plans as Georgia and sending it to the several people making up Stalin's government to be stamped. which is forbidden as evil Totalization because Communists are The Stereotypers against The Nice People in the United States who are bourgeoisie. please, Existentialists, please be intellectually honest for once. it's exhausting to have to solve everything you say like a math problem.

</li><li class="field_geo" value="618" data-dimension="F2">The universe is fundamentally made of information -> this is almost demonstrably false. silly argument against it: if that were true, there would be no difference between physical objects and Digimon, and we would have to seriously ask ourselves why you can't create an Agumon or a simulated coffee machine on a computer and then print the simulated coffee machine into the real world as data without having to copy every piece of the coffee machine using things that already exist inside the real world. I saw this claim in <cite>Existential Physics</cite> that you couldn't simulate a human mind without creating a human mind, and by extension you couldn't duplicate a human mind anywhere else without creating a second individual. the thing nobody realizes is that this is also true of a coffee machine. the most accurate model of how a coffee machine functions would be a coffee machine, in the sense the most accurate model of an Agumon would be a living creature. but you cannot shift a simulated coffee machine into reality without manually duplicating the coffee machine, any more than you can the Agumon. what this means is there is actual physical stuff in the universe between information. you can call every arrangement of things information but that information is always made of stuff. the crux of general relativity is that things are made of stuff. that's why everything can be a reference frame. because there are objects, and all the interesting stuff can only be seen while standing on them. some of the objects are really small and constantly re-divide themselves, because they're hardly big enough to even hold together, and that's okay, because we still see the interactions they create clearly enough that we can stand on them and call them objects. then more interactions and information happen between atoms, and so forth.

I think the answer tells us a lot about ideologies and whether people will be able to accept new models of how societies work. and not just new Bauplans of mainstream Marxism-Leninism or Kropotkinism or Deng Xiaoping Thought, but fundamentally, inner mental models of things like Menshevism and anti-racism and any change in society whatsoever. but funny enough, I think you begin fixing all that if you get mainstream Marxist-Leninists to coexist with Trotskyists, because the exact same basic difference between inner universes is manifest there.

entanglement is one of the only exceptions, but entanglement is just basically what happens when you try to measure the color that each of the quarks is pointing. they are definitely pointing one of the three colors, but the color force is going so fast you never know which quark has which one of them. the outside observation and inside state are wildly out of sync. the only thing you know is the direction of each quark depends on the other two.

[https://youtu.be/8HqFeFa0KiE] the beginning of the narrative was that lab cats are being tortured — they are raised to trust humans, then they are put in their cages with insufficient food and no enrichment, and you can say that because their life is engineered for suffering they learn to comply. sounds uncomfortably familiar; I swear the whole concept of Lacanian discipline and great portions of Existentialism is just this. but at the end of the narrative, the only way to save those cats was for people to pool together some money and buy the building. the cats never cease to be treated as objects, the objects just change hands. and I think that reveals a lot about modern industrial societies. "Filament of people conquer space and control it" is one of the only things that's worth anything. it solves great abuses, after also having created them. how different are collections of workers serving built-up Audiences from collections of lab cats? how do we know when a protest is meaningful versus when people are just chunk-competing over an area meaninglessly and different people controlling it won't actually make anything change?

I don't fully know yet how that fixes racism, but I've got a fairly good idea how that unites Stalin and Trotsky, or Existentialism and Marxism. there's no huge distinction between sociophilosophy and culture that makes one not the other, so there probably is a way.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The postcolonial project is about constantly smashing signs / Colonial Racism exists within the inability to smash existing signs -> this.... hmm. I don't know whether I feel positively or negatively about it. I think it is true that ontologies can always make errors, and we need the ability to pick incorrect ontologies apart to properly investigate the world and learn what is accurate in a scientific sense. but I have never really liked the notion that signs are an inherent form of power. it takes some unpacking. I have argued that Lacanian discipline is bogus because people can oppressively teach each other the wrong things. but is that all because of signs, rather than people? I'm not sure I'd say that. my thoughts right now are, the video I watched said that letting signs be is allowing metaphysical divisions of reality into arbitrary elements. which I half agree with. but then it said that the notion of breaking up sign monopolies is defeating metaphysics. and I feel like there's an error there. whenever we try to think that power is a deliberate thing somebody grabs and choppify things or push individuals back to stop power grabs and push the world into "balance", I feel like that's the moment we truly construct metaphysics. metaphysics lies not in the construction of specific categories but in the sheer false idea the world can be in perfect balance when it is always growing and changing. modern metaphysics is an empty vessel. a perfectly-balanced wheel of constantly-changing empty vessels that can grow and change and deconstruct themselves but are always in conflict, always hating each other, always trying to smash each other to break each other's power and then accusing each other of being the real power-grabbers. that's what metaphysics is now, not the content.

I wouldn't say it's false, it's probably true, but oh boy it's not my favorite. sure, we need to be aware of the plurality of philosophies each perceiving the world through themselves. but I think meta-philosophy is totally possible. I think it's totally possible to step outside philosophies for a moment to actually compare them and ask where they came from. we will easily make errors in the way we do it, but I don't think all philosophy is doomed to be fully locked inside models and effectively inside prejudices such that it is constantly eating itself. I think people primarily think it is because they do not have consciousness of the material phenomena of graph struggle and chunk competition. if they did, they'd realize how silly this all is. they'd go, oh god, why were we promoting philosophies that ask everyone to fight and kill each other as nicely as possible instead of asking how to turn around and become the puppetmasters of chunk competition. why were we doing any of this when we could have stopped what generates prejudice at the source.
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Human language is rooted in Lived Experiences / "language is rooted in human experience and relationships" -> no. no. human language is rooted in the fact humans belong to social networks. graphs. language has networks and humans have networks and when you are part of a sea of free-floating entities you must physically obtain information about that system while inside it. that is Einstein's theory of relativity. a camera can do relativity just by being physical and being part of the world as it takes a picture. it doesn't have much to do with human "experience". we could all be philosophical zombies and still have language. in certain limited senses, The Subject is a machine and relativity is a piece of the machine.

Adventure Time giving its moments to BMO and Ice King near the end, good.

I really feel like philosophy does turn Subjects into objects if it's doing its job. what does it mean to turn something into an object? it means studying the pieces or processes that compose it and comprehending it as a physical thing. reductionism in the ontology sense: reducing things into a graph of sign equations, an ontology which is plural and not definitive but may go part of the way to explaining how something works.

I think this highlights some kind of major division inside Existentialism. should I divide Existentialism into humanist periods and... prejudice-obsessed periods?? I still don't quite understand. I study and read and study and read and I still never understand what's going on. trying to understand where the hell these modern prejudice philosophies come from feels like Simon researching the ice crown and turning into an idiot and being stuck there forever.

I never see people consciously listing out all the internal real-world signifiers that they think utopia actually means. the... bisimilarands? the analogy targets? the Z Items to the S Items, anyway. one possible "bisimilarand" is addiction. one is imperialism, as shown in the Winter King episode: a population that oppresses another has a much easier time. one is national independence: it is easy to accuse postcolonial Anarchists of "utopia", but they really just want some kind of independent population. all of these "bisimilarands" are very different, and which one you think of is based on your model of society, your social-political-economic ideology. the problem happens when people assume a particular pathway of signifier-bisimilarand-mechanics simply is what something is across fiction and mythology and real life. in one sense, fiction is how we all share and agree on misinformation without realizing that's what we're doing. and this is really popular for Existentialists to do. to assume that particular works of fiction are portraying such things as The Subject exactly the way they work in real life, when necessarily they all come from generalizations and assumptions. fiction argues about "unending happiness". but such a thing is complete nonsense. like, so nonsensical that even speaking of it hypothetically is hard because you have to suspend several things about reality and effectively make up fake prejudices about which real-world things you don't believe in. so what is fiction really arguing about if the thing it's arguing about doesn't exist? it's arguing about prejudices and which sets of prejudices people think are the better prejudices when literally speaking all of them are wrong.

I think by any reasonable definition, every single time Liberalism or capitalism makes people chop off part of themselves and fit into it is the same as symbolic castration. I think he is complaining about his own system. which is kind of funny — Žižek is a Zinovievist Trotskyite, while one of Trotsky's biggest problems was projecting onto Stalin the things that Trotsky does, effectively making "Leninism" into this weird never-ending cycle of deciding you don't like Leninism and exploding it to create Leninism that somebody else inside it then explodes again.

I like the authenticity of Adventure Time having historical periods that don't have to connect to each other, and a potentially infinite number of historical periods; there's a great poetry to that at the same time there's a certain kind of realism. what I don't like is how it comes down into any particular set of present events. it makes it feel like it's unimportant to have morality because if having patience and surviving things can fix anything, why bother to get other people to be moral instead of holing up in an ice cocoon? you can say that it's possible to accept just anything that happens because you can't control it, but there are some things that really are bad. people being isolated from each other like Simon and Betty really is bad. the collapse of society into warring states or world war really is bad because it doesn't stop the same cycle from happening again. and just walking away from the notion that some things really are bad feels like abdicating the responsibility to make history go the right way.

Lacanianism says we cause trouble for each other because we individually have fake ideas about reality that need to be cut off. symbolic castration / discipline. schizoanalysis basically says that democulture is the mechanism that cuts off fake ideas and is the rationale for Liberal republics. postcolonial theories say everything is due to prejudices. Lacanianism is talking about prejudices too. it's saying all our fake ideas about reality and refusals to compromise are prejudices. that's what it's really doing. and I hate it. because it diminishes the reality of beliefs and philosophies as actual matters of identity and experience that people truly live their lives by, kinda treating people as mere instruments in a way, mere instruments of building an empire of people who miraculously guess the correct way to behave for people to get along, and haven't even thought it through to figure it out, who have all just been beaten into place like cattle. all the individuals or countable Cultures or ideologies are the instruments and the Liberal republic experts just own them all, like a capitalist owns a group of workers and makes them behave a certain way for their place of work to exist. if the Existentialist-Structuralist tradition were true then Liberalism would be a scam, and it would be a scam. it's a lot better for everyone in it if it's not true, because then nobody can come label them an evil conspiracy to turn countries into oligarchy. when you think about it, there's a fine line between scams and incorrect theories of society. if people don't know they can be forgiven, but if they do know they're labeled conspirators, con men, or any number of uglier names.

I don't think most people take the proposition quite this far. I think you'd have to make the propositions people actually use subsets of this, and I think it's the notion of making it completely absolute that's funny. but just imagine. some random Dave Andrews off in Arizona made a bad desktop application in Rust because he was prejudiced against good programming languages. some Erma Waters over in Newfoundland wrote yet another detective story when nobody needs any more because she was prejudiced against good books. the notion of every single wrong action being a prejudice is quite conceptually funny.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">it's possible to have political positions without it being a team sport - no. it's not. chunk competition / CCASH and Social-Philosophical Systems / SPS prohibit that. center-Liberal rationalists are so stupid. you know what the worst thing is? this was used to justify Trotsky in the same sentence. Trotsky violently attacked a republic due to his extreme views. I mean, what else do you term an assassination? anybody who doesn't realize hegemony politics currently exists (even if it's not a good thing) and treat it as if it exists is just, hanging out feeling like they owe nothing to a population continuing to exist and it's okay to let every other individual die except maybe a couple friendly businesses they buy things from if current policies benefit their own business. when you refuse to play "team sports" whole nationalities and ethnicities of people cease to be because all the people in them scatter to different capitalist cities. only a few things are more prejudiced than that. every population is based on a molecularized yet competitive process of people building populational structures through free association that at times harm each other and exist in mutual exclusion. you can't just "criticize" these without understanding their physical interaction and the fact that some of them have to be treated as correct and some as incorrect. correct structures bring down regulations on incorrect structures. this is the basis of Liberal democracy. SPS-based democulture. if one person standing by and writing a bunch of Zinovievism could change the world just because they had "good ideas" there would be no need for elections.

I think you can also go a step further and say that merely labeling something "inexcusable" is in practice the same as labeling it "obvious".

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="618" data-dimension="S2">The world needs adventurers to keep culture from stagnating -> Dragon Ball, Adventure Time season 8. there may be a kernel of truth to this in that when different populations interact they learn things, at the very least about the existence of other populations. that said, wow. it's really blown out of proportion how helpful seeing other places actually is. if things are bad at home you won't really find the holy grail somewhere else. your people will still need you to apply the knowledge you find. and as the centuries have gone on, people don't really come back to the places that need them the most, it's just turned into permanent migration out of unsuccessful places to successful places. we really need to talk about the fact that neither Goku nor Finn wants to come home to share their knowledge, both cases begin with assuming home is too far gone, and you can only be a hero through never coming back. (I think I already know what the Existentialists will say. they'll try to claim I'm turning this into a case of "Rudolph was useful". but it's not me doing it. it's the fact people are physical and there are real solutions to real material problems below the level of "discovering better culture". I also know why people make this error. they can't see that any nice group of friends is just a graph and any case of "cultural exchange" is just making the graph bigger. sometimes bigger graphs become easier to operate without becoming more efficient, but they also become more capable of oppressing anybody who actually believes in improving the structure of the graphs. really unfortunate when it comes to worldwide shipping and climate change.)

</li><li class="field_horror" value="618" data-dimension="S2">"It's your responsibility to help these misguided Hiders" (Adventure Time season 8 episode 24 "Hide and Seek") -> in just 11 minutes, this episode has so many accidental things to say about dystopian literature and anticommunist fables. one, anomalous societies are bad because they don't allow arbitrary individuals to split off and form another Culture. there is a notion created here of Culture-monopoly. two, some anomalous societies are formed as a matter of group cohesion to make sure everyone survives. this.... is one of the most accurate things a dystopian narrative has ever said, because it's the only anticommunist accusation that's actually just a true fact said in the wrong tone. yes, it is true that North Korea, early China, the Soviet Union, and kinda most workers' states really, formed to make sure people survived, and captured people into party-nations for that purpose. that's actually true. you usually have to read a bunch of Marxist texts to find that out, because most accounts of Third World countries are so stupid they don't even mention that. three. there is such a strange notion in fiction of populational creationism where populations really are made out of culture and they just culture culture culture every day to produce people, rather than people producing culture. thus, the anomalous society made out of one big blob of culture with a bunch of people skewered on top has to capture people back into culture. it's like a parasite, it's gotta get its hosts back. which leads to.... four. if culture shouldn't be capturing people, then Rhizome has inherent potential for oppression. you can't tell me Rhizome is a model of movements and it models this special movement thing people do for a moment and then stop doing. people are physical things and if Rhizome is actually going to change their minds then there's a form of Rhizome when it's expanding and flipping people over and another resting form when it's done. that resting form is the Social-Philosophical System, the loosely-linked network of people that in their daily lives all support anti-racism or whatever the movement is. that's what has to form for people to actually go vote and get other people to vote. but according to this Adventure Time episode resting Rhizome is bad, because all humans have times where they want to break out of an SPS even if its ideas are correct. this episode seems to think that all populations are Cultures and all populations can be bad anomalous Cultures from somebody's point of view leading them to break out of the population and call it dystopian. we'd better think about that kind of thing when we're trying to ask what creates Tories.

</li><li class="field_ML" value="618" data-dimension="S2">Men enter into definite relations not of their choosing -> one of the big problems within Marxism these days is Existentialists do not believe this. Existentialists, the majority of all people, instead believe that every relationship is a choice, and every change in relationships is a matter of Free Will. the important consequence is that Existentialists rely on people finding okay bosses versus terrible bosses and okay landlords versus terrible landlords and okay towns to work in versus terrible towns as an important part of the process of building progressivism.

Adventure Time can't be a science fiction universe due to things like Jake spontaneously reimagining significant parts of the world. but if you take the alternate timeline where those episodes aren't true and this one is, it's one of the most single most interesting questions. if magic isn't magic then what is it? clearly, it has to be a new form of physics that doesn't exist in the real world but does exist in the fictional world. a simple set of fundamental rules complete with equations. and to some degree, isn't that observably the case? in a Pokémon game, there is an equation that damage equals base damage times type matchup multiplier. that is a physics equation. it doesn't tell us very closely about how the world works underneath, but neither do a lot of real-world physics equations! until quantum mechanics a whole lot of processes and mathematical information about them were left out. a concrete equation about how something repeatedly behaves is a physics equation. the only way out of that is to invent the term "metaphysics equation".

Lexemes tie together unique sets of inflections or conjugations, and sets of definitions. See [[User:Reversedragon/FirstNineThousand/inflections|here]] for a chart of inflected forms for each of these terms 
In practice, many of these will end up comically resembling some sort of "Devil's dictionary" with shocking contrasts between everyday usages and specific usages.

Prejudice Existentialism is purely focused on the act of constantly smashing signs in the hope that depriving people of any notion of facts or truth will lead to everyone perceiving reality correctly, although paradoxically Prejudice Existentialists typically claim that it is impossible to see reality through anything but signs and ontological models, which should make their task literally impossible to achieve for even a second. a rather intellectually dishonest field of philosophy in my opinion. if it were true that it is potentially a prejudice to call basically anything a fact, it would also be true that reality is nothing more than a bloody chunk war where whoever wins is automatically correct for the rest of history. Prejudice Existentialists have no way to actually disprove that claim, so they just resort to saying that acknowledging it to be true is Evil and equivocating everything else to be equally true is Good. I really hate the notion that morality is the only thing that's true. because first of all, how do you even know if morality is correct or real if nothing else is, how can you use it as your grounding? the problem they always run into in real life is that people all over the real world reject morality, and then when they point out prejudice as the fundamental sin that is the most obvious thing that makes any statement wrong nobody actually listens or cares. how do they know that thinking anybody cares about the concept of "prejudice" isn't a prejudice that makes their own theory obsolete?

Lenin's filter is the process of taking a coarse movement of people and building up correct answers, procedures, strategies, and movement shapes such that the movement improves itself and becomes a party-nation. according to some Maoists, the process of operating Lenin's filter is synonymous with the party itself, and I'd say that is broadly correct but I still prefer to label a filter as the process that creates the party and the Bauplan as the shape of the party-nation

</li><li class="field_mdem" value="329" data-dimension="L">Lattice model / The Lattice -> this is either MDem's filter or at least another mathematical transform very adjacent to filters. it's the process of taking isolated islands and linking them, going through a "search for quantum lions and avoid quantum leopards" process until people aren't isolated and are safe from being surrounded by threats. this concept can apply to many different scales from very small ones to very large ones, such it could be used to diagram going from isolated individuals all the way up to a Communist International. why is it a lattice? because it's a graph of nodes, and before meta-Marxism the idea of using graph theory to describe movements wasn't heard of as far as I know. final note: the Lattice model is different from Rhizome in that it explicitly acknowledges the possibility of many tiny plural "rhizomes" and that as separate objects they may not inherently want to come together. it's also different in that it recognizes that every tiny "rhizome" can be a different Social-Philosophical System, only deciding where to go based on what it actually believes and in no way magnetically pulled toward anything without deliberately following the Lattice model as a guide.

Alfred Jarry called it 'pataphysics, I just call it "meta-ontology". in a sense, it's like the SCP wiki has to use a wrong definition because the Foundation is all about containing things and keeping things normal, but 'pataphysics is actually about using such insane strategies to solve things it would go against the Foundation's typical protocols.

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="660" data-dimension="L">metagame / The Meta / metagame (V) / metagaming -> real-world surrounding staging-ground of how different people play a competitive game; figurative use of finding the best ways to play a game, similar to minmaxing but arguably includes the broader concepts of creativity and finding ways to solve many different goals - like if we have a [https://dragonball.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Fighting_games Dragon Ball simulation] you could find the most optimized way to play Gogeta, or you could find the best possible way to succeed with Tarble. in my mind both of those are "metagaming".

</li><li value="662" class="field_trotsky" data-remark="heresy" data-dimension="L">Gnosticism / Gnostic / gnosticism -> make this a different term from "agnostic"/"gnostic", because this has its own conflicting connotations. to some people it's just a rival religion, to others it's basically the devil

</li><li value="666" class="field_trotsky" data-remark="enemy/rebel" data-dimension="L">Satan / Satanism / Lucifer
<ol><li>bible definition - literally described as the opposer of God
</li><li>(Toryism) Satanic: anybody or any thing theorized to secretly be plotting Evil conspiracies to prevent everybody from joining the one correct human social circle and knowing the narrow set of behaviors and cultural associations which are Good. a wrecker who prevents realizing the Material System of world Christianity.
</li><li>Satanism: a code of morality and moral Right designed around social connection to Satan, taken as entirely figurative and poetic
</li><li>(Dragon Ball usage) Satan: someone who tells a lot of lies and is very popular - see book of Revelation
</li></ol>

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="696" data-dimension="L">post-language -> don't know if other theories have other definitions of this word. in MDem entries post-language refers to a kind of communication which eradicates all mental associations and has a hard requirement to be equally understandable to any individual who reads it anywhere regardless of what that particular individual believes words to mean. in some cases this can lead to wordy, absurdly-precise descriptions which put readers to sleep and are equally unintelligible to everybody. art is almost always written in language and hardly ever in post-language. any nonfiction statement posted to the internet almost invariably ends up having to be expressed in post-language. "logical fallacy" and "cognitive bias" guidelines very frequently force perfectly understandable language into stilted and unnatural post-language: somebody says "there are two options" not intending to rule out others, and a pedant comes along forcing a correction to "there are at least two options", "there are two major options", or "there are two options but I was not saying those were the only ones" (these explicit disclaimer clauses seem to be one of the most common forms of post-language). the "[[Philosophical_Research:Molecular_Democracy/5.2/1019_ours-democracies|ours groups]]" chapter is very deliberately and satirically written in post-language.

</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="697" data-dimension="L">nonsense -> oddly enough, has several jargon definitions. nonsense mutation; non-sense (Lacanianism); others?
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="698" data-dimension="L">bull -> I'm hesitant to quite put "bullshit" in the first 2000 Lexemes, although I don't see any reason it shouldn't be added after that; we've gotta contain our swearwords somewhere before we ban them, and what better place than here? oh well, now this term can also contain senses of "bullcrap".
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="699" data-dimension="L">spaghetti / spaghetti code / ontological spaghetti -> literal food; difficult to understand code; completely meaningless-sounding plate of unfamiliar philosophy words that never seems to get easier to understand (meta-Marxist term first used to mock Lacanianism). similar to "word salad", but with the difference that it strongly appears to actually mean something due to its proper lexical structure of signs and statements until the points at which all the self-referentiality and insular forms of meaning render it impossible to actually comprehend or explain to anybody. ontological spaghetti is twisted and woven into a neat yet unexplainable structure just like spaghetti noodles.

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="700" data-dimension="L">narrative -> history; legend; fantasy book; of or relating to dramatization techniques; slanted sociophilosophy; fascist rhetoric; single official record of history everybody is fighting over; etc. this word is an adventure in itself
</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="701" data-dimension="L">alien -> how many different rhetorical meanings are there in science fiction, there are a lot. also: foreigner
</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="702" data-dimension="L">unicorn -> first I think of the usage of something that nearly never appears, then of the notion that unicorns are 'wonderful', then the notion that they are overrated
</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="703" data-dimension="L">dragon -> like lions these creatures have multiple readings as monsters or as strong beings of courage. monster; courage; Satanic anathema; word reused for arbitrary new creatures; plurality, diversity, outright used in scheme of Media Representation (<cite>Dragon Masters</cite>)
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="704" data-dimension="L">greed
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="705" data-dimension="L">corporate greed -> I hate this phrase because it is in nearly every critique of capitalism indicating in the space of one two-word phrase that the critique is b<s class="censor">ullshit</s>
</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="706" data-dimension="L">hero -> has fairly common pejorative usage dismissing its possibility; also, the concept that reactionaries can have heroes and they certainly aren't other people's heroes
</li><li class="field_horror" value="707" data-dimension="L">villain -> driving arts experts crazy by including descriptivist accounts of fans downgrading villains to antagonists and explaining the hell out of them. I love it because as much as some people are total beginners at writing, it does show they're thinking about things and questioning the assumptions of real or fictional societies
</li><li class="field_horror" value="708" data-dimension="L">immortality -> why is this word 2/3 of the time a backdoor to sneak Buddhism and its model of the individual into Christian or progressive-philosophical discourse. the moment before we discuss fiction people have ordinary comprehensible definitions of what life and death are. the moment we start talking about "immortality" suddenly everyone on earth believes in Buddhism and thinks life and death are each totally different things from what they usually are.
</li><li class="field_exstruct" value="709" data-dimension="L">immortal -> separate Lexeme which contains the concept in Buddhism sloppily called this when it's something different

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="710" data-dimension="L">verisimilitude / verisimilitudinous / verisimilar -> very relevant when analyzing fiction. why are Marxist analyses of fiction possible when in theory it should be that fiction can be anything at all and a great number of authors do not know anything about Marxism? because of verisimilitude. people create fictional ontologies by superficially copying real-life ontologies, which can amusingly result in fiction containing ontologies that are specifically realistic enough they provide for the possibility of Bolshevism.

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="718" data-dimension="L">metanarrative -> in my scrap about Vegeta and Asriel I realized there were multiple possible definitions of metanarrative. so here we go.

</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="776" data-dimension="L">bookman's bluff -> when an author tries to claim that the story goes together and makes sense on some level even though it doesn't. [https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue/comments/gi29qv/tomt_whats_the_name_of_the_term_when_an_author/] can turn into Calvinball if done really well to continuously expand mistakes into believable lore; can turn into a scottcon if done badly.
</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="777" data-dimension="L">signifier mad libs -> when an audience fails to ask what a fiction or non-fiction work is actually trying to communicate and begins carelessly filling in all the nouns, verbs, and adjectives with their own meanings
</li><li class="field_fantasy" value="778" data-remark="no good rationale for where I moved this one." data-dimension="L">Calvinball -> game created by Calvin & Hobbes; metaphor for serialized writing

Sonic the Hedgehog adaptatons were the wild west! but that was because the arrangement of characters, objects, and processes in the Sonic universe had not become consistent, or simply because the arrangement of real-life corporations producing the Sonic series and arrangement of people and teams inside them had not become consistent.

=== L2000 - L2200 "nimi toki pona" ===

The first two hundred or so Lexemes past L2000 are set aside for [[Ontology:Lexemes 2000 to 3000|the full set of toki pona words in common use]]. 
There is no particular plan to include toki ma, but if there is ever a day somebody is entering Item labels in toki ma there could be a range set aside for it then.

== Unsorted Lexemes ==

* egoism
* individualism
* meta-ontologically sound / meta-ontological soundness -> a statement is meta-ontologically sound when it would be recognized as true by anyone in any ideological faction or interest-having population of people which has a high school education and does not believe blatantly false statements. those are a little hard to find for Toryism, of course, but educated Tories do exist; they're a bit scary because they see all the evidence that progressives point to without being able to deny it, and then spin that factual information as bad to protect some pre-defined set of interests like "my family" or "my socially-linked several-state-sized reactionary subpopulation of White people". the good news is that a lot of statements by Tories fail to be meta-ontologically sound even if they're based on lists of true facts because there are reasons they blatantly cannot be recognized as true by other ideologies.
* slider-speak -> this didn't have its own term in MDem drafts until very very recently. for a while I called it generalized alchemy, or metaphysics, or mistaking the ability to create adjectives for reality. I still think those all fit fine. but we need to really stop and characterize this thing at length so we genuinely see how weird it is.
* stealth activism -> this is a totally stupid term for a reasonable thing. the definition I heard almost reduced it down to taking over structures and Each Individual In Parallel Culturing Better. which is... very Gramscian. it may be necessary and even effective but my one issue is I wish nobody would use the word activism for it. it's like. sure, you can do that. but there eventually comes a point where you're preserving particular oppressive countable Cultures for the hell of it and committing to take the steering wheel of the oppression bus and run it a little less bad, while — here is the real problem that overshadows any other concern — you're part of an overall national population which by its own existence justifies torching other people-groups in an act of self-defense murder just because the national population exists. self-defense genocide exists now. (even though it did exist in 1800, I know.) do you know what kind of atom-thick hair edge Gramscianism is operating on? do people even know that. one day you can be doing ""stealth activism"" and the next day the people you barely shifted over to win one issue could be torching you too, because two different swaths of stealth-activists for different issues ended up on different sides of the Torching Unamericans divide where only so many people fit in the core group of people truly allowed to live. as time goes on I increasingly feel like Gramscianism is an elite ideology and it's not really for the people who actually get hurt by Toryism or "fascism". why do you need Gramscianism if you already fit into institutions well enough to infiltrate them?
* cultural context -> this phrase kills me because I feel like it is used for ten different things and every time people say it they're using it to get out of distinguishing those things from each other. Foucault used it to describe a stage of development of class society, with actual structures and territory-owners. a Deltarune video I listened to used it to describe people living in one US state instead of another, literally just the geographical region people live in and the weather and climate they had experiences about. see why it's not actually a very clear thing? people are conditioned to think populations are made out of culture and culture can easily be used to distinguish populations but then when they describe what culture is they're often describing things that come almost strictly before culture per-se.
* military-cultural complex -> this is what has existed since the Cold War. this is what I have been trying to get at with descriptions of all socially-linked groups of people generating The State to protect the sheer existence of their socially-linked group of friends.
* Herculean task
* Sisyphean task
* Minosian task -> a task so bad you lock it away
* Promethean task -> "something you know is the right thing to do but you still get punished for it"
* Odyssean task -> task that "should have been simple but everything goes wrong in the worst ways making it insanely long"
* Orphean task -> when you are doomed to fail for the same reasons you are desperate to succeed
* solidarity -> the more I read about this word the more it sounds to me like it's a question rather than an answer. it began around the time of the French Revolution but every single person trying to create a new theory of how to build society defined it a bit differently. I really think solidarity is just a word more than it's a concept. to actually achieve proletarian solidarity you need to define new much more specific concepts like filtration
* recursion -> fractal process of some kind; programming usage; specific cybernetics use
* world party -> pros of Bordigism: actually talks about patterns of party operation which are oddly specific. cons of Bordigism: I don't have the slightest idea what any of these things are.
* essentialism
* anti-essentialism -> one of the better theories for understanding human individuals themselves rather than whole populations
* strategic essentialism -> a particular concept of benign nationalism used in context of national independence from global empire, as in India. I am trying so hard not to say the words "culture", "colonial", or "postcolonial" because I feel like that cluster of concepts has muddied up absolutely everything and made every single struggle people are trying to get through across the world harder. why did we all decide people were made of culture rather than [[redlink - Hyper-Materialism|being made of people and populations]]. why did we do that.
* strategic anti-essentialism -> George Lipsitz (b.1947). the act of resisting membership in a particular restrictive Social-Philosophical System of culture by expressing the practices of a different Social-Graph System of culture. see: Satanism and Gnosticism, wiccans and pagan revival, schizoanalysis, United States otaku.
* agent -> already used to describe the concept of Group Subjects in slightly obscure biology/ecology research
* solidarity -> original definition of Third World proletarian subpopulations standing together against all owning classes; vulgarized definition where it has been co-opted into the entirely different idea of Existentialist individuals throughout multiple First World countries standing together because they are The Subject. this word is like, the day that Marxism absolutely died because Marxists ceased being aware that the First World was weaponizing the notions of "empathy" and "community" to defend all scales of chunk competition and crush empathy, community, and solidarity alike.
* denial of coloniality -> way better phrasing than trying to turn every word for empire into a word for prejudices in people's heads
* The West -> it's always been really weird to me people say this. it always weirdly feels as if people passively acknowledge the existence of a British Empire after the British Empire.
* The East
* Filamentocracy -> add to "Filament"
** democulture is the class ideology of Filamentocracy. that's just it. that's why people believe in democulture and Goku's filter
* intersubjectivity
* Market Society -> this came up in MDem v4.3 and kind of fell off as a major topic although it very much stayed a term. near synonym for primitive Existentialism but focuses more on the notion of isolation. coined to mock the term "market economy" by pointing out what economies really are: society itself. socioeconomies.
* [S2] Kirby is a metaphor for humanity / Kirby is the quintessential Subject -> really funny copypasta [https://www.reddit.com/r/copypasta/comments/afr9xc/kirby_is_a_metaphor_for_humanity/] [https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue/comments/gi29qv/tomt_whats_the_name_of_the_term_when_an_author/] <s>somebody seems to have dreamed up while up into the morning unable to sleep, I mean that's my injection of my own experience but yeah.</s> from a Polygon video? I was just trying to find the definition of "bookman's bluff" and here we are
* free-floating -> add to "free"; very similar usage to an object being "knocked free" or "wrested free"
* constructive process -> related to "construct" as is also used as a verb
* destructive process
* nationogenesis -> the slow or quick assembly of individuals within an existing national population into a new nation and spatially-unique realized Bauplan. the reason this "needed" a new word is that it can happen with people of the same ethnic group and religion and who are overall seemingly the same group of people in every way, yet who spontaneously begin drifting into totally new groups of people thanks to the news station they listen to, their incomplete understanding of Leninism, or some other factor that would be unexpected to most people
* postification / post- / post-ify -> not used many times in v5.2 in favor of returning to plainer language, but the concept is always there in basically every chapter
* physics as equalling factical systems; physics as relativistic causality exchange
* thought / think -> logical process Lexeme
* modal realism: all hypothetically possible worlds are technically real. David Lewis.
* economy / socioeconomy
* socioeconomy, sociophilosophy, socioempire, sociocurrency
* rival / rivalrous -> I forget why I added this. it had something to do with Creative Commons and "non-rivalrous goods" and some killer analogy I'd gotten from that vaguely related to chunk competition or graph economics but I forget the exact connection I made. I think it was something like, when everyone lives in rivalrous houses, and has to pay for them with rivalrous jobs, and it's so easy to totally slip past anyone else's attention because people have to "spend" their attention on one thing or another, it's hard for anything to really actually be non-rivalrous. populations are rivalrous, countable Cultures are rivalrous, physical individuals are rivalrous. you have to overcome all of that just to create a non-rivalrous good
