Historical events, texts, etc.

901. [S] MAI reading list / Anti-Imperialist Movement Marxist-Leninist reading list
905. ??
910. ??
915. ??
920. ??
925. rift, split, separation, schism, expulsion, or fatal controversy / event of serious division between two sets of people / event of serious division between notable individual and group -> thanks Trotsky for showing me that expulsions and schisms are really just the same thing
929. metaphysical thought experiment
930. Materialist thought experiment
931. scientific thought experiment
932. historical-materialist thought experiment
933. existential-materialist thought experiment
934. ??
935. ??
940. jamming proposition or question / jamming antithesis
941. jamming proposition -> seems to be a major component of 'pataphysics, but also of meta-Marxism
942. jamming question -> it bothers me that most people don't think a question is a proposition. it makes the task of non-binary logic unnecessarily difficult.
943. ??
944. ??
945. ??
946. ??
947. ??
948. ??
949. ??
950. tiered levels of grouping / tiered grammatical plurality -> the concept of multiple levels of plural objects (seas of free-floating entities) as they are represented in language or propositional logic. I would say the majority of people are not aware of this concept and constantly gloss over it in both writing and comprehending writing. it is dreadfully common to simply toss out the weasel word "we" with no particular meaning in reference to some really vague group of more than one person and assume it makes total sense.
951. one-member concept / singular term [1]
952. group concept / collective term
953. subpopulational concept / particular concept / particular term

960. method of defining a set
961. local characteristics or members / intensional characteristics / localized spatially-unique set members or characteristics of said members
962. entailed characteristics or members / extensional characteristics / extensionality across characteristics or subpopulations
963. ??
965. ??
970. ??
975. ??
980. language register / language proficiency level
981. local vernacular term -> applies to contexts such as fandoms and that phenomenon where gender labels were exploding because nobody knew the difference between common terms, vernacular terms, and university-level terms
982. widespread vernacular term -> applies to contexts such as dialects of English
983. uncommon term
984. common term
985. technical term taught in grade school / scientific term taught in grade school
986. university-level term / technical term taught in four-year degree
987. university-level term widespread in particular ideology / technical term widespread in partisan ideology
988. graduate-level term / technical term taught in specialist degree -> one of the only one of these Items to not use "88" to mean anything whatsoever.
989. technical term within local research group / field-specific academic jargon term
990. ??
991. [S] boxed-in theory -> the motif of a theory which has absolutely no idea what meta-ontology is and would never think of analyzing itself as an object
992. [S] meta-theory -> I at first put "MDem reading list" here, but then I found out about metamathematics, and running across more meta-theories makes me so excited
993. [S] MDem reading list -> just so I am not tempted to create another one anywhere else. not the definitive or ultimate one, but one I can compare and contrast with my MDem bibliography entry as a minimal version
994. ??
995. ??
1000. [S] plateau (philosophy) / plateau (schizoanalysis) / thing claimed to have no beginning or end / spatially-unique object which does not remain unique
1001. formatting device -> any kind of device which styles, tags, or structures text. Unicode encoding might count as a formatting device
1002. formatting rule -> a specific kind of formatting device which transforms written text into logical structure and possibly renders into some other kind of transcribed logical structure such as TeX or HTML
1003. basic bop formatting - ad-hoc markup language
1004. Markdown - markup language
1005. HTML - markup language
1006. prototype -> an early version of anything made for testing. not related to markup languages.
1007. Hue list classname - colors used in Hue lists, including any color-codings you can see on this one. not to be taken very seriously, often quickly chosen to distinguish nearby blocks of items from each other. instance of: CSS classname
1008. CSS classname -> instance of: formatting device
1009. Item usable as Hue list classname

1028. Traditional Chinese (hant)
1029. Simplified Chinese (hans)
1020. uncommon, constructed, or system-internal language / language possibly coded as mis
1021. simple English (en-simple) / en-x-pona / en-basiceng [2] -> I want this to be specifically upgoer-five style with a very small list of words, such that it's only a step or two up from toki pona, yet not so simple it's hard to read. the idea is almost to write the en-simple label and use it as guidance for the tok one. Wikipedia's 8000-word list should be useful
1022. toki pona (tok) -> implied to be either sitelen pona or sitelen Lasina
1023. toki pona, sitelen Lasina (tok-Latn)
1024. toki pona, sitelen pilin / sitelen emoji (tok-pilin)
1025. toki pona, sitelen jelo (tok-jelo)

1082. utopian fiction
1083. dystopian literature / dystopian fiction
1084. anticommunist fable / anticommunist parable / "dystopian fiction" created to attack a progressive theory
1085. socialist realism
1086. metatransitional literature / meta-transitional realism / meta-transitional fantasy -> like socialist realism or science fiction, but for meta-Marxism
1087. afterlife fiction / Bangsian fiction
1088. horror work
1089. anti-imperialist fable / anti-colonial fable -> a rising genre of idealistic short stories which is specifically about either a kingdom Freely Deciding not to create global empire or some fictional population fighting against global empire's previous attempt to extinguish it. this concept does not encompass every story with national independence or anti-empire themes. the anti-imperialist fable is distinguished by a bizarrely strong focus on the notion of intersubjectivity and the whole narrative being driven by particular things being morally wrong and/or the universe naturally pushing back against what the narrative considers immoral. [6] I am becoming slowly convinced that the use or implication of this story genre is a major reason Pokémon appeals to people.
1090. hero's journey narrative / adventure story -> in practice, the definition of "hero's journey" is almost the same as the definition of "adventure"; that's probably what we would have called it if we'd just started at the everyday examples of a book about a dog finding its way home and then worked back to the Iliad. I feel like things turned out this way because of people trying really hard to justify their degree in classical antiquity. which it may well be they had to get to convince a bunch of crusty imperialists to let them study the arts.
1091. superhero story / superhero narrative
1092. fictional history
1093. evil empire narrative -> distinguishable from hero's journey narrative because it explicitly involves populations. may simultaneously be an anti-imperialist fable, or might not.
1100. ??
1110. quantum water -> an imaginary metaphor in which quantum fields are literally water that separates into different puddles, and the point is to show how different water would have to be in order to be like a quantum field
1111. tennis ball -> keeps being used as a loose comparison for quarks in MDem scraps, which repeatedly explore how different a tennis ball would have to be to be like a quark.
1112. cue ball
1113. pool ball
1117. ??
1118. eight ball
1120. ??
1130. ??
1135. order of magnitude / scale of particular numerical base / power of ten / power of two / multiple of one
1136. multiple of number -> subset of: order of magnitude
1137. precise order of magnitude / repeatable number of things / stoichiometric number / specific average number of things -> counterpart to Property "replicated at order of magnitude"; subset of: order of multiple of number
1138. 1/137 problem (physics) / 137 problem (physics) -> mysterious constant which keeps showing up in a lot of physics equations. does it have a solution in some kind of physical-mathematical object, somewhat like the hypothetical theta field of axions that was to replace a theta constant? currently nobody knows.
1140. ??
1145. ??
1150. Everything is made of something / Physics is when everything becomes other stuff / Physics is the study of everything being made of stuff -> A) the problem of what a black hole is rests on the definition of physics that matter and energy always become something else physical because everything is made of something B) unexpected consequence: knowledge is made of physical arrangements of things, leading to one logical proof against Maxwell's demon.
1151. When matter disappears it becomes something else / When matter disappears from a defined section of reality it usually becomes something else / matter conservation
1152. When energy disappears it becomes something else / When energy disappears from a defined section of reality it usually becomes something else / energy conservation
1153. Knowledge is made of physical arrangements of things -> seems odd to point out but invariably ends up being true. bits are physical arrangements of things. neurons are physical arrangements of things. printed words are physical arrangements of things. bibliographies and bookshelves are physical arrangements of things. data Items are physical arrangements of things. even signs are physical arrangements of things, although they're split across two substrates: the written work and the brain. both written works and brains are physical. the final leap not included in this proposition: ideologies and policies are physical arrangements of things, just as a written work is. knowledge of how to carry out Bolshevism correctly can be stored in an arrangement of words, or it can be stored in a physical population of people increasingly arranged into Bolshevism. however, a population of people which increasingly arranges itself away from Bolshevism and into another arrangement may lack the stored information of how to create Bolshevism the more it already does not resemble it.
1154. ??
1155. ??
1156. ??
1157. ??
1158. Some things can be made of themselves / Some objects are small enough to be made only of themselves and not made out of anything smaller -> the claim that fundamental objects may exist in the universe although they are bound to be very, very small. do they exist as quanta? do they exist as whatever quantum fields are made of? do they exist at the Planck length? nobody knows.
1159. History is made of processes / History is made of objects and transformations / History is made of stuff -> Everything is made of stuff + series of events = this
1165. ??
1170. ??
1175. ??
1180. How do you produce the ingredients of a black hole? / What kind of physical stuff would matter change into if it got into the interior of a black hole? / What kind of black hole stuff is matter converted to when it collides with a black hole? / black hole information paradox
1181. The physical stuff inside a black hole is unstructured energy / Black holes are gravastars; the stuff inside the gravastar is a maximally warped zero point energy -> I'm tempted to say the phrase "like one really giant quark" but I'm not sure that's scientifically accurate, since after all black holes aren't constantly disappearing or re-dividing. so I won't.
1182. ??
1183. ??

1280. bad afterlife / Bad Place
1290. ??
1295. ??
1300. ??
1305. ??
1310. organization -> I feel as if this needs to be described more specifically to make it clear it's a material object and more than just a term
1311. action against society by countable group of people / incorrect action by countable group of people -> used in defining what protests are about
1312. street protest
1315. ??
1320. ??
1325. ??

1331. [S2] Populations must be studied relative to their own traditions / cultural relativism proposition
1332. ??
1333. ??
1334. ??
1335. ??
1336. ??
1337. subculture -> refers to any subculture, although QID references internet subcultures.
1340. ??
1350. structural racism -> material phenomenon as described by real-world evidence, and not whatever papers and books say, should that somehow be a problem
1351. redlining
1352. ??
1353. ??
1354. ??
1355. ??
1356. ??
1357. ??
1358. existence as empire / socioempire / gentrification results from small-scale empire / chunk competition across the spatial slot hierarchy (near-synonym)
1359. critical race theory / CRT
1400. scientific progressivism -> half-hypothetical, half-already-real concept that progressivism, as defined by Existentialists and Liberals, can be broken down into falsifiable hypotheses in the same sense as Marxist hypotheses of how nation-sized revolutionary movements succeed
1405. ??
1410. ??
1419. drug prohibition / war on drugs / war on drug gangs -> there is a deep discussion to be had about how much a war on drugs isn't actually about drugs and is actually a nationalist local-war campaign on the entire existence of criminals
1420. drug legalization
1430. ??

1484. ??
1485. ??
1486. historical fascisms / nationalist regimes recognized as fascisms by historians -> a somewhat deceptive term explicitly excluding the British imperialist framework but including falangism
1487. Axis powers of World War II -> Nazism, Italian fascism, and Japanese global empire
1488. Nazi germany / Nazism
1489. Fascist Italy / Italian fascism
1490. Falangist Spain / falangism / Francoism
1491. Imperial Japan / Japanese global empire
1492. British Empire / British imperialist framework (hypothetical)
1493. United States global empire / United States imperialist framework (hypothetical)
1494. Identitarian fascism / third-positionism / fascisms rooted in definitions of what culture is -> clearly includes Duginism; appears to include Francoism and United States Toryism, if you strictly define it as "fascisms which are not obsessed with genetics"
1495. new Russian empire / post-Soviet imperialist Russia -> under research; Russia as defined by Napoleonist Bauplan or new regime that took over after destruction of Soviet Union
1496. Duginism
1497. European New Right
1498. claimed characteristic of fascism / claimed warning sign of fascism
1499. list of characteristics claiming to define fascism / definition of fascism -> there are a ridiculous number of these. it may be worth encoding all the list-entries and connecting list-entries to the list, especially items they share
1500. ??
1501. Tea Party axis -> United States Tory movement that emerged in the early 2000s, about 2007 according to some. before the early 2000s United States "conservative" parties had some claim to being right-Liberal parties, but then they went through a hard turn into solely being about taking the United States "back" from immigrants and people of the wrong religion. I use the term Toryism in reference to the concept of a faction that rejects the creation of a parliament because having democracy would give Catholics too much of British society. it's funny. even though the original Tories and Britain's modern Tory party are separate groups of people, they aren't ultimately that different in their values. and it only gets worse when you note the repeated event of some people in the United States choosing a party specifically in the hope it wasn't Catholic. did Toryism ever really have a beginning and an end?
1510. Umberto Eco's list for fascism
1511. cult of tradition -> claimed characteristic of fascism.
1512. rejection of modern culture / descent into depravity
1513. cult of action for action's sake
1514. disagreement is treason -> note that this has to be in a nationalist tone. Trotsky saying Stalin does this doesn't mean Stalin's Marxism is fascism. contrary to what some people may think. if you want to say Stalin's Marxism is bad, that's whatever, but you absolutely cannot act like Bolshevism and fascism are the same thing coming from the concept of a generalized dictator. they are different countable sociophilosophies.
1515. fear of difference
1516. appeal against low-ranks / appeal to a frustrated middle class
1517. obsession with conspiracies / obsession with the plot
1518. enemies are too strong and too weak
1519. pacifism is trafficking with the enemy
1520. in-group superior to the weak / contempt for the weak
1521. die a hero or become the weaklings
1522. machismo
1523. selective populism
1524. nationalistic buzzwords / newspeak
1525. ??
1530. ??
1531. ??
1532. The Prince (Machiavelli 1532)
1540. ??
1550. ??
1560. ??
1570. ??
1580. ??
1590. The Taming of the Shrew (c. 1590) -> Shakespeare play. comedy. notable for "abstract amoral world containing blatant misogyny" structure. trying to explain Dragon Ball made me remember it because I swear this is at least two characters' character arcs
1600. ??
1601. ??
1602. ??
1603. ??
1604. Guy Fawkes
1605. Gunpowder plot of 1605

1611. ??
1612. ??
1613. ??
1614. ??
1615. ??
1616. ??
1617. revisionist history (field) -> to be used for actual instances of updating the facts and making them more accurate
1618. progressive anthropology -> subset of: revisionist history (field); in my mind, refers largely to studies of ancient people-groups as done in Magic: a history
1619. inclusive history -> subset of: revisionist history (field)
1620. 1619 Project (2019) -> attempted education project by inclusive-historians
1621. Kimberlé Crenshaw -> one inclusive-historian off in a corner of the United States surrounded by a bizarre amount of controversy and discourse. I swear the whole PragerU video about "people segregating themselves at Black graduation" grew out of her drifting over to a different university when the group of people at the other university didn't want her there

1790. democracy (center-/right-Liberalism) / democracy as defined in center-/right-Liberal republicanism
1791. metric system / International System of Units (SI) / Système international d'unités (SI)
1792. French Revolutionary Wars -> right after the French Revolution, the republic brutally occupied a handful of other countries to force them into Liberalism (or at least early republicanism). this part of history is always forgotten especially when talking about World War II and the Cold War
1793. Thomas Paine treason trial (1792) -> there's something to be said about this in relation to the Moscow Trials. I'm not sure what.
1794. French First Republic -> very notable given there was a second one
1795. ??
1796. ??
1797. ??
1798. sister republics (c. 1800) / French-revolutionary client states / Napoleonic client states -> republics which relied on French occupation to remain republics, or were fitted with monarchies loyal to Napoleon
1799. Napoleonic empire -> French civilization under Napoleon's dictatorship
1800. Napoleonism (meta-Marxism) -> may give this a different name later. a civilizational structure consisting of one republic — in some cases a democratic republic — and several client states under military occupation and/or client regimes controlled by the central republic. the puppet regimes may be republican or monarchist but they must be loyal to the regime of the central republic. arguably, the French Revolution birthed the Bauplan of Napoleonism and it's still alive and well, the United States still doing it
1801. ??
1802. ??
1803. Napoleonic Wars (1803-1815) -> second try at brutally enforcing early-republicanism over all of Europe. the Napoleonic empire walled away many countries' economies and made them so upset the other countries ultimately kicked out Napoleon and restored the French monarchy
1804. Hundred Days -> Napoleon comes back from exile to rule Europe again; every European country goes to great effort to stop him
1805. Bourbon Restoration -> restored French monarchy which remained until 1830
1806. Sixth Coalition -> Great Britain, Austria, Prussia, Sweden, and Russia, united to defeat Napoleon at the Battle of Leipzig
1807. Seventh Coalition -> Sixth Coalition plus Switzerland and the Bourbon Restoration; each alliance contained many smaller territories too

1872. (further divisions of volume IV?)
1873. (further divisions of volume IV?)
1874. International System of Units (SI)
1880. ??
1882. The Lady, or the Tiger? -> nice example of ambiguity in literature and the concept that ambiguity can be perilous. if you say it doesn't matter what the door is assigned to, there is a 50% chance the tiger will maul you. if you say it doesn't matter what person A believes or decides is behind the door, then person A knows whether the tiger will maul you and you have no idea. similar concept to: quantum Freddy, quantum leopards; see also: Vegeta effect

1909. Materialism and Empirio-criticism (Lenin 1909) [7] [8] -> a text that had textbook status in the Soviet Union. worth annotating entry with important motifs / propositions / Lexemes.
1910. ??
1911. Course in General Linguistics (Saussure 1911/1959) -> approximate benchmark for finding the birth of "general-sense" structuralist philosophy (signifier-based ontologies pretending not to be ontologies) within the literal descriptivist study of linguistic structuralism. despite all the bad things one could say about the "Existentialist-Structuralist tradition" that would emerge later, structuralism was not a bad thing in and of itself; it began in the practical study of the elements of language, which is still useful in very similar forms to people of all ideologies to this day.

1922. The trade unions, the present situation, and Trotsky's mistakes (Lenin 1920) -> this is one of my favorite history texts because it just, is so illustrative of all the incorrect things Trotsky did at many different times all wrapped up in one prototypical incident. every time I learn about some other Trotsky incident my mind comes back to this one. did you know about the incident where he couldn't properly slam a metal door? unrelated but very funny. he was always convinced he knew everything but always making dumb mistakes that showed he didn't even know what Lenin or the workers' movements were actually doing. it's two sided. it's funny Trotsky was so arrogant but sad that he was so bad at contributing to the things he thought he believed in. it makes you ask, is there some point at which having standards becomes being mean to people and saying they aren't good enough to be part of a workers' state, that they simply weren't born to be the kind of people you want? workers' states are supposed to be about uniting everybody and getting everyone to stop fighting, so what is our obsession with leaving people behind?

1970. Settlers / Settlers: The Mythology of the White Proletariat / Read Settlers (slogan) [9] -> Maoist text totally appropriated by anticommunists and stripped of all Marxist content thanks to the existence of Existentialism. until the advent of "read settlers" it wasn't widely apparent that there was a highly established philosophical tradition resistant to change which was opposing Communism. now we know that there is a specific ideology which believes that everything in the world is made of prejudice or non-prejudice as a fundamental building block, way below the existence of the proletariat, way below the fact humans have to eat and have to occupy space, the philosophical tradition where life is primarily composed of morality and culture before you're even a human being or populations even exist. do not trust anyone talking about "hidden biases" or trying to turn "colonialism" into something that's in our minds. do not assume they care about finding out how anything actually works instead of trying to make everything ever about prejudice including things you would never think of, only to find that real people have no empathy and no interest in choosing not to be prejudiced. you think I'm being cynical or hyperbolic, but I'm being highly literal. intersubjectivity is literally an ability many people don't have, and presupposing they have it is sinking all progressivism.

2092. Proletariats belong to localized subpopulations functioning as nations / Proletariats include Black-proletariat in prison / Proletariats may include center-Liberal proletariat and right-Liberal proletariat -> North-American Maoism, MDem

2098. Third-World countries will become capable subpopulation / First World defined strictly by neocolonialism / First World defined strictly by global structural racism
2099. multiple capitalisms in one country / multicapitalism (MDem) -> the concept that it is possible for a given country to consist of two or more totally separate populations of capitalists, which only appear to be one population because the borders are fuzzily defined and corporations leak from one side to the other. multicapitalism is suggested as the mechanism for how center-Liberals and Tories can become so divided to the death against each other when all the bourgeoisie should "theoretically" be on the same side. if multicapitalism is real, China would not have multicapitalism but the United States would. one of the few concrete things the CPC would have accomplished in terms of building Bolshevism or transition out of capitalism is not allowing multicapitalism to develop.
2100. countable area of capitalism -> capitalism as a countable object. in real life, it may be hard to pin down where the boundaries of these are, but that just means it's especially inappropriate to characterize capitalism as a "population". in some senses it can only really be an empire-border.
2101. Political economy only remains a science so long as nobody breaks out of capitalism / Bourgeois economists necessarily have a career of maintaining the rest of capitalism -> rock-solid statement by Marx from unfinished Capital vol IV, as well as probably other texts
2102. Different societies contain the same repeated patterns / societies contain repeated patterns in the manner of quantum fields
2103. Societies have developmental processes from one set of repeated patterns to another
2110. shovel dream / object or formation ideology / ideology or consciousness associated with a specific repeatable kind of population which is countable and separable and has a particular kind of internal structure / ideology or consciousness associated with a particular kind of materially-definable Social-Philosophical System -> Hyper-Materialist concept. the motif of a particular kind of object having a particular kind of model of the world and ideology because it is a particular kind of object. almost always the object is a countable, separable population of people, but it's funny to figuratively refer to other kinds of objects to get across a concept that somehow absolutely nobody seems to understand. Hyper-Materialism is when all similar shovels have a similar shovel dream, and all similar rakes have a similar rake dream. a collections of rakes may have its own unique collection-of-rakes dream, but in principle it can be calculated by modeling the interaction of the individual rake dreams. individual people, not being shovels or rakes, can change their shovel dream at will, but changing the shovel dream of one individual may not have much effect on a large group. Marcuse thinks it's as simple as changing all the individuals one by one but that doesn't necessarily go fast enough. you have to understand the existing layout of various kinds of material objects producing shovel dreams and think about what changes in the layout of shovels could produce the right ones faster. the terrible thing is there are no shortcuts here. you can't just go "here are the bourgeoisie, here are the proletariat, they only need to become aware of the possibly wrong model in this text". with the United States objectively not having the class structure described in Leninist texts, organizers really do need to understand the basic concept of shovel dreams and how to identify them and categorize them in the field.

2144. Trotskyism: Counter-revolution in Disguise (Olgin 1935) -> Soviet record of the history of Trotskyism up to the first attack. relatively comprehensive, although I would expect no less. it was amusing to me when they got the trade unions incident in there, which had been one of my favorite historical anecdotes — and even better when there were apparently several more factual details to how badly Trotsky screwed it up. good history text. the only problem is I have questions about how complete its class analysis is. of all the statements made, I wouldn't dispute any of them but I do feel like there are some crucial statements missing that might just explain everything. Trotskyism was born out of a churning creek of petty bourgeoisie that could never pick a side? true. Trotsky was never integrated into the Russian revolution? true. I mean, he himself complains about that, so there's no denying it. the behavior of creeks of petty bourgeoisie can be ignored and brushed off as a factor in the motions of history? false. creeks of petty bourgeoisie are not periodically generating entire new competing Marxisms and separating whole racial movements from nation-states to then call all Marxists racist? false. the CPSU tended to totally dismiss these layers of society as people who exist, which actually did make sense in a country like theirs where it was a small portion of the population, but it's a rather terrible thing to present this point of view to other countries where conditions are very different. even if this layer is "unimportant" you still have to understand its behavior, and effectively, give it something to do before it gets into trouble. though Trotskyists literally don't believe it (and we can guess why.) the United States is filled to the brim with "petty bourgeoisie" and the problem only gets worse every time capitalism has a crisis. it's like rather than consolidating the bourgeoisie, crises in capitalism actually result in big corporations exploding, destroying the proletariat, and wildly creating petty bourgeoisie.
2145. Trotskyism is the shovel dream of small owners / Trotskyism is the shovel dream of the petty bourgeosie (small owners; Artisan types; mainstream Marxism-Leninism) -> I think this is only half the explanation but I can't disagree. I think you have to model it as the shovel dream of a separate unique cluster of "petty bourgeoisie", a subpopulation as a countable object, to where there can be plural groups which fail to unify because they're fundamentally separate objects. but at that point you've basically got it. yes, the "proliferation of Marxisms" and "plurality" I keep talking about are some very petty-bourgeois problems. but I can't just walk away from these problems because the oceans of petty bourgeosie that create them all really actually exist and have to be studied. they're the numerous, insular, backward peasants of the modern world.

2200. retail shelves as global empire / retail empire (MDem) -> the motif of retailers always being a kind of star graph connecting to manufacturers that then connect to workers, often in Third World countries; each retailer is a microcosm of the relationship between the United States and other countries itself. "retail empire" is not in the tiny-civilization sense of "imperial republic of Walmart", more in the sense of the global scope of, for instance, the British empire.
2201. republic of Walmart / people's republic of Walmart -> the motif of large businesses behaving like small governments with departments
2202. imperial republic of Walmart -> the motif of emerging businesses behaving like small governments with departments specifically in order to wildly expand over everything like some kind of miniature Dutch empire finding the best part of Africa before anyone else can get it. the act of delivering a workable service at any cost and taking all the losses, until taking as great a territory as possible becomes a way to survive against the threat of other structures taking it. [10] imperial republics of Walmart are not typically broken up because of the way they operate as units against everything else and don't contain clear merger lines. I think the more of these you point out the clearer the nature of capitalism becomes. capitalism is the act of using people as tools to secure frontier empires against other empires, and it always was that way. capitalism is a social-darwinist fight between miniature countable Cultures to determine what kinds of culture are allowed to live and which ones are softly or formally prohibited.

2216. Nation-states are neither natural nor intentionally constructed -> the claim that, excluding all Marxist states, the process of people forming into nation-states is both artificial and largely not at all designed. many people make the mistake of turning undesigned-ness into a simple binary where if something is not designed it must be fully natural in the sense of either ecological or human, and if something is not fully ecological it must be as deliberately designed as a computer chip; you see this fallacy in both anarchism and Western Marxism. this is not the case. something can be totally undesigned and also harmful, just as something like indigenous agriculture could be designed and be ecological. some things which are ecological are undesigned, yet The Subject itself is arguably designed by itself while being a biological animal,
2217. ??
2220. ??
2221. Determinism can form out of non-deterministic elements -> we already know this is possible, at least in a mathematical sense concerning material things that really appear unpredictable versus material things that really appear predictable. the most widely-accepted example right now is quantum mechanics. nobody really knows much about the individual particles, yet as things scale up all the particles form into predictable patterns. this is the key to building models of society and historical materialism.
2222. study of interacting objects instead of one at a time / study of two or more interacting objects instead of one object at a time -> I know the word "system" can be used for this, as in "complex adaptive system", etc. but the word system has been so totally exhausted into meaninglessness in social movements I feel like we really need to break things down more to where they are hard to misunderstand. also, this might be a Z Item because it seems like a realistic description of a kind of scientific field. it seems like it might already exist, even if it exists to a more limited extent than it really should.
2223. Nature is a multiplication table / All physics equations are actually multivariable functions -> here we go. one of the most genuinely solid propositions I've come to in MDem, that unlike everything else I have very little doubt about, and high confidence in. we teach mathematics and Newtonian mechanics entirely wrong. we should be teaching every physics function from wavefunction collapse to chemical reactions to throwing a rock as multivariable functions of objects colliding in the sense of two number lines colliding in a multiplication table style function to produce a three dimensional graph. this is the beginning to how we fix all of physics. this might lead to unifying quantum mechanics, Newtonian mechanics, and gravity. this is it. it sounds absurdly simple, and ridiculous that this could be the answer, but I think this is it.
2235. ??
2230. Determinism separates Liberalism from Communism / The greatest difference between Liberal-republicanism and Bolshevism is free will versus determinism -> once you understand "determinism" as limited portions of the universe performing "chemical reactions" rather than as universe-wide predetermination, it all clicks into place.
2231. Action transforms the abstract into the tangible / Practice transforms the abstract into the tangible -> the claim that it isn't the desire to do something but the intuitive or educated knowledge of the world and ability to apply that knowledge that allows people to transform their surroundings. this only makes more and more sense when you have a disability: you need knowledge of the reality of your body to dodge it, not just more Free Will.
2232. Determinism can get populations through war -> what is Stalin telling everybody not to fear because Marxist methods will pull through mathematically if not this. Marxism claims, although sometimes fails, to be able to mathematically solve wars and avert them by getting everyone onto the science of the best solution.
2233. Strikes are an act of applied science / Strikes are an act of applied determinism -> pretty much what Marx says, just put a little more bluntly. he says basically that workers' movements as a whole are something you can apply determinism to in order to better know the actual requirements to get the outcomes you want. maybe I'm wrong and that's only in Lenin? not sure.

2240. Faith actually represents free will / Within religion, faith actually refers to confidence in the unyielding Free Will of an individual / The Neverending Story shows that faith, hope, and Free Will are all actually the same thing [11] -> looking at the bible, looking at Lacanian and schizoanalyst and chaos-magic nonsense, I sputtered to get this out, not sure if anyone had noticed it. then one day Lacanians say it unironically in clear words rather than spaghetti. thanks Lacanianism. thanks much for nothing.
2241. Will transforms the abstract into the tangible / Will is what transforms the abstract into the tangible -> chaos magic is straight-up Existentialism with a little ritual thrown on. this is one blatant definition of Existentialism. it has also made me realize, unexpectedly, that the "law of attraction" is Existentialism.
2242. Free will can get populations through war -> what seems to be one of the biggest claims behind Old Testament bible stories... and a bunch of old-style fantasy books. that the sheer will to not back down and to kill people for the army of Good is what brings victory.
2243. Strikes are an act of applied free will -> this is what I was complaining about way back in MDem v3. I had no idea how deep into all of this I'd have to go to finally have words for it.
2244. Being wrong requires relinquishing freedom -> derived Existentialist proposition, though I don't totally know what it's derived from. the reason people don't like to admit they're wrong. every time people are busy being wrong, they're also busy exerting individual will and effort to do what they want to do and be where they want to be. people are always told, try hard, believe in yourself, and you will surely be allowed to do anything. in practice, this saying isn't remotely correct. it's all too easy for somebody to try hard, go into physics, mess with string theory, create a wrong model, and end up getting bullied out of science simply for not magically being perfect and guessing the correct thing in a world where the material topics of science are getting so utterly esoteric that nothing can properly be tested before it's published. or try hard, try to create art, and suddenly a bunch of Gramscians or anarchists or postcolonial theorists show up and are like, you're not fit to make art, you didn't magically know what every prejudice and microaggression is when speaking in terms of the physical communication of information you couldn't possibly have known. my issue here obviously isn't that there are standards, it's just the way anarchists and Gramscians elevate socially constructed standards to natural law and expect people to automatically know things that require education.

2400. Palestine is not complicated -> what it says. there are weird philosophical problems that you can get into with the United States and analogies about Ireland or Trotskyism, but there is no real way to complicate Palestine. Palestine is a matter of not killing the Palestinians. and that's it. but you want to know what's terrible? Rothenberg literally had a chapter about complicating Palestine. this is why I say so many bad things about Existentialism. I may love to talk about hypothetical civilizations, but not in order to pretend that's how you solve Palestine.
2401. needlessly complicating Palestine -> see: Palestine is not complicated
2402. ??
2409. In a world where all Palestinians were racist, it still wouldn't make sense to kill them -> you hear a lot of stupid arguments that Israel = Jews (how can it, when people now live in so many countries?), but you don't often see people address this. empire is not about whether people are nice people. bad people also have human rights.
2410. A monarchy spanning two continents is global empire -> not easy to dispute. an empire which is global in scope is global empire.
2411. A monarchy extending over a sovereign nationality is global empire / A monarchy spanning two nationalities is global empire -> murkier but often true. the Russian Empire extending over Ukrainians ultimately revealed itself to be global empire when it happened again. Spain or France conquering Haiti is global empire because even before we get to all the suffering it's an intercontinental distance. tangent: can we acknowledge how stupid arguing over Columbus is? regardless of what Columbus did or didn't do himself he marked the beginning of global empire in Haiti. look at Ireland and it becomes more than obvious that a few people appear before a lot of people appear. arguments about Columbus exist because people hate historical materialism.

2420. The United States killing Native Americans in frontier wars was empire -> kind of obvious. "Manifest Destiny" describes the shape of an empire speaking in the old medieval sense, so it's kind of an admission of guilt. we get a very important truth from this: killing groups of people that stand in your way is empire.
2421. England occupying Ireland was global empire -> straightforward. the definition that filling Ireland with English people so they can all link together and realize the British Empire is global empire or "colonialism" materially. the British Empire is global empire, and the British Empire is the intended result of the process.

2488. Returning land doesn't work / Returning farms to Black South Africans Will Never Work -> reactionary tries to claim that there is an equation for what race of people should own farms ... going for the angle that this will make the world worse because being Black is as destructive as being Stalin. (which, if true, would mean that Black South Africans are rebuilding their country and making it stable.) honestly goes to show that when people said Communism "will never work" it isn't unreasonable to think they did mean to imply that Russians or Chinese people controlling industry in their own region instead of people from other countries — I hate the word greed, but — greedily slurping up everything anyone has created will never work. ... (complete prototype notes after watching through claim again)

The concept of "scarcity" is prejudiced / Scarcity is prejudiced (searchable) / Liberal-republican economics is legalized racism / Liberal-republican economics is the study of how to legally eliminate Black people from the United States / Liberal-republican economics is the study of how to legally wipe China off the face of the earth -> the claim that racism, anti-immigration, and other prejudices begin precisely at the concept that human populations can be studied and constructed through "the allocation of scarce resources", because it is ridiculously easy to vulgarize that into kicking some particular group of people off a plot of land and handing it to someone else being "more productive" or "more efficient".
2491. Everyone can change their racist uncle / If Free Will could end colonialism, everyone could change their racist uncle -> one of the single greatest ignored contradictions in United States discourse. if individuals have Free Will, then it's safe for everyone to directly debate reactionaries. if individuals don't have Free Will, and all of people's actions are retermined through either interactions between parts of their body or the relaterministic development of Social-Philosophical Systems, then it's fundamentally important to rearrange people at minute social levels to get them to think any differently. even a progressive party taking over a country at large scales will do nothing to change how people think if you don't rearrange the people themselves.
2492. People argue about Columbus because they hate historical materialism / Arguments about Columbus exist because people hate historical materialism -> really, really important. Marxists believe that people fail to see global empire because they don't understand the material patterns of history or societal development. Existentialists believe that people fail to see global empire because they are ""prejudiced"". they start invoking this weird little Artisanal ideal of a tiny ring of friends from different countries listening and learning, like that can fix global empire. then the more you look into it, the more you see it's actually just an appeal to Free Will and the notion that a rational actor will Freely Decide not to be Evil. but then you get to the problem of, how do you get somebody to accept any particular definition of Evil as real? you have no guarantee that any particular human being won't Freely Decide that being whatever you think is Evil is better. so Existentialists believe that Free Will leads to a bunch of people spontaneously Freely Deciding to change history, but in reality, what you get is a bunch of people arguing that Columbus arriving in Hispaniola means nothing for the future arrival of Spanish empire because individual human actions are arbitrary and can't be used to predict history. even after those events have happened, when it's hundreds of years later and we have the results, they say this. this is what Existentialism leads to. denial of global empire. identifying the causes of global empire requires rejecting Existentialism.

2499. The US South is a nationality held in colonialism -> first of all: I make absolutely no assertion this claim is true, I only think it should be investigated. what is the definition of a colony? a colony is a population of people forcibly held under the government of an empire for the benefit of that empire. in the prototypical examples, people may be turned into slaves or slaughtered to take whatever "assets" their area "had". colonies in general can be very screwed up. but not all of them are the same. in some cases, England can descend on Ireland and start granting the whole thing to new or existing Protestants, and it takes a while for it to affect the whole country. there's nothing okay about that; it does amount to a medieval cold war where they're trying to eliminate the Irish because the Irish stand in their way. but think about it a bit. after the US Civil War, a lot of the development of the United States has revolved around chunks of socially-linked people trying to control parts of the US so they can further realize their vision of the US over the whole US. most notably racist reactionaries trying to drive people out of areas to have more control, but in modern times, also White center-Liberals trying to occupy as many slots as possible and do the same thing to reactionaries. that realization process of doing hegemony politics to supposedly defeat racism is a lot like the colonial process of realizing the British Empire over Ireland. mathematically speaking. and if you think this sounds really stupid? maybe it is. but I think in general like 90% of the people studying "colonialism" are trying to define an incoherent thing and have no idea how to distinguish it from things that aren't it. empires are real. messed-up wars to snatch people's lands are real. but how do you even tell whether groups of people should be somewhere or shouldn't? there's no Liberal economics for whether an island should be inhabited by one group of people or another group of people; there's no equation that says this island does best when Irish people or English people have it, barring some futuristic Marxist equation about empire bringing inevitable suffering or about the notion of self-contained areas and degrowth. the hard reality is that primitive accumulation is always happening and never stops happening. the sheer biological growth of populations prompts them to senselessly expand into each other and over the areas they each believed they owned and nobody really knows how to properly make sense of that. when do you deserve to live anywhere regardless of who you are, and when are you deliberately refusing to understand the existing population or trying to destroy it? the Protestants leveling Ireland to then realize the British Empire seems like a fairly clear case of going too far. but where does it actually begin? when do people belong to populations and people-groups regardless of how much they think they're individuals? when are people actually individuals who should be considered minority demographics? could Trotskyists be unfair "colonizers" of the Soviet Union just because there's a good argument both that they are taking stuff away from its otherwise united population to build their own rival civilization and they utterly refuse to understand Soviet culture? how do you know what Culture is supposed to own a region? with that in mind, could it be that people's approach to handling United States reactionaries is genuinely incorrect if they never really wanted to be part of the United States at all and yet everyone is trying to bleed their population for social programs and order their people to behave particular ways and say they shouldn't have representatives in the government they were traumatically forced to be a part of? these days Liberal democracy feels more like a weird new form of colonialism people are attempting to use "for good rather than for evil".

2681. Does two flames plus two ice cubes equal four ice cubes? -> jamming question to trip up philosophers who say that "two plus two must necessarily equal four" rather than realizing that mathematics is true according to definitions of regular rules. mathematics is one big field of multivariable equations, such as "z = x + y", which always work the way they have been defined to work, but cease to work that way as soon as we use a different definition, which is rather frequent. if we assume one flame melts exactly one ice cube, the flames and ice cubes problem can be phrased with negative numbers, and we have changed the definition of adding objects into subtracting objects just by saying that the same integer that can contain 2 can contain -2.

2910. It's easier to imagine the absence of elephants than the successor to elephants -> jamming proposition used to get people to realize why "it's easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism". it's far harder to imagine anything actually having transitioned into or given rise to something else than it is to imagine that thing just being broken or gone. an end-of-the-world scenario is actually just the absence of civilization in the form of Social-Philosophical Systems, which in a sense has definitely been the case on earth before. all civilizations have not been before they've been, and in some cases they've also not been after they've been. in contrast, civilizations transitioning to new class compositions or fundamentally new structures has been rather rare. can most people without a biology or science education make reasonable guesses about the species that could descend from elephants, down to all the physiology and details that make up a Future Elephant, or is it easier to imagine a particular elephant being gone from a photograph, or a photograph of a dead elephant?

2930. Ethics is almost impossible / Morality is almost impossible / Vegeta effect prevents naïve diffusion of morality / Individuals can never be forced to accept morality or ethics -> bound to be one of the most controversial ones, but the point of it is to test it and see if there is any way it can be clearly untrue
2931. Every moral statement is a scientific prediction / Every moral statement is a determinist hypothesis -> for instance, if we say "all Floridians should learn about the history of racism and stop being racist", that is a prediction that there is a deterministic process of every single Floridian going through education and then doing a particular more-or-less identifiable pattern of behavior to not be racist. if it is not possible to list out a repeatable procedure that can and will be followed by absolutely everyone, however general the outline, "should" becomes meaningless and the moral statement is unenforceable.
2932. People accept ethical standards when they wish to maintain relationships / Subjects accept moral standards when they want to maintain relationships / Subjects might reject moral standards when they do not want to maintain relationships
2933. Morality is a form of culture and identity / Morality is carried on Social-Philosophical Systems / Morality is carried in the bonds of social graphs / Morality is an internal characteristic of free-floating groups rather than individuals
2934. Moral oughts are indistinguishable from material imperatives -> the hypothesis that "Trotsky must fit himself into Stalin Thought to build the Soviet Union" (a material imperative, to keep the Soviet population from disintegrating and going to other continents) is an equivalent kind of statement to moral imperatives like "Progressives must vote for the Democratic party" or "Floridians must learn a correct history of racism" — they are claimed to be the same because in each case, there are situations where somebody is handed an imperative but in practice that person is horribly suited to materially follow that imperative, and then becomes branded as a terrible person. if this hypothesis is true, then it means some moral imperatives are morally dubious under a more objective, worldwide, and consequences-based formulation of ethics; if the enforcement of morality leads to what logically should be immoral outcomes, the system of morality contains incorrect moral assumptions. to be fair, simply knowing that some moral or material imperatives are incorrect does not tell us what the correct ones are, for instance what one is supposed to do with Trotsky or exactly what should replace Democratic Party campaigning to successfully unify people.

2939. Ethics is the same thing as objective morality -> how do I avoid statement definitions turning into word definitions and keep statements independent of what written words they are about
2940. How can Stalin and Trotsky coexist in the same reality?
2941. If ideologies can coexist, they should be mutually consistent / If ideologies can exist in harmony, they should be ontologically consistent across each other / Compromise is nothing, ontological consistency is key -> one of the biggest, most central claims of meta-Marxism. this is the claim that if Trotskyists and Stalin followers can exist in the same world, then we should expect mainstream Marxism-Leninism to correctly model the historical emergence of Trotskyism and its persistence after being exposed while Trotskyism correctly models the emergence and persistence of socialisms-in-one-country; this is the claim that if US "Democrats" and "Republicans" (center-Liberals and Tories) can coexist, they should each have completely accurate models of how the other behaves which they can use to predict how to peacefully resolve their differences. obviously this sounds rather laughable for Liberalism. but for Marxism, the notion that mainstream Marxism-Leninism and Trotskyism could update themselves to correctly model each other and all other ideology-populations as potentially independent entities wouldn't sound anywhere near as far-fetched. it's actually quite baffling why after generating so much new history without prior precedents Trotskyism would never have switched to correctly explaining its own material real-world history as an emerging "nation" or constellation of workers' states and realizing that there are steps in between what has actually happened and the purported end state for Trotskyism of a global civilization that they take out of Lenin's 1920 writings.
2942. Every time human beings assign meaning to an image it generates a group of people potentially in fierce conflict with other groups of people -> part of the mathematical definition of "Social-Philosophical System".
2943. Leninism does not have a binary truth value -> the claim that a theory of Leninist movements or of workers' states can be incorrect on small things without being incorrect on everything, or in a case like Trotsky, incorrect on most things without being incorrect on everything. Leninism is subject to Gödel's incompleteness theorem just like formal logic, physics equations, computers, books, and minds. this makes the judgement methods people use of trying to apply the categories of "proletarian" and "bourgeois" as if they were flat-out categories of Good and Evil or True and False inappropriate for judging the basic possibility of a given theory or movement realizing or becoming a historically-relevant entity that must be studied even if such a group is unwanted by some particular Marxism. it's possible to get so caught up in the prospect of realizing a proletarian civilization that you stop doing historical materialism and descend into Existentialism, becoming unaware of things that could completely prevent your success.
2944. Applying any claim to Trotsky eventually yields the correct answers / Applying any philosophy to Trotsky eventually gets you to the correct answers -> one of my very favorite jamming propositions. this one gets me through the hard times. this proposition sounds so stupid at first like it could never be true, and then you try it, and you realize there's something there. I'd give an example, but I have a problem that they're all turning into actually okay propositions that might be worth making into their own Items.
2945. Trotskyism is the prototypical oppressed group -> the claim that focusing on Trotskyists failing to fit into the Soviet Union gives insight into processes such as racists insisting they're oppressed, or movementist movements of marginalized identities horizontally oppressing each other in a circle
2946. Trotskyism is the prototypical prejudice -> the claim that specifically focusing on Trotskyists refusing to understand mainstream Marxism-Leninism gives insight into processes such as racism and xenophobia

2949. No proposition has a binary True or False answer / No proposition has a binary True or False value / Propositions generally should not have a binary True or False value / The way to fix logic is to replace binary outcomes with sheer tests of consistency -> you don't fully break out of the Gödel trap this way because practically nothing ever could do that anyway. that part is not what matters. ideally the point of logic isn't to derive facts about reality in a vacuum but instead to perform a basic sanity test of whether statements you already have could possibly be correct or are almost definitely wrong. arguably, that is the thing that logic actually excels at even as it is inappropriate for many other things.

2953. Freedom allows oppression to thrive / The more freedom people have, the more freedom they have to oppress each other -> something neither Western Marxism nor anarchism really want to acknowledge. the problem of the United States is almost precisely that individuals get upset at each other for various reasons and then they spread out apart from each other so far that they gain more power over each other and become more oppressive. Western Marxism dances in circles trying to find the "ideological state apparatuses" that allow this while anarchism thrashes around trying to find and destroy the Spanishness Office that ruled individuals could do this. it becomes relatively obvious neither of these angles make sense if you simply understand what a shovel dream is. (this may be the same proposition as Q29,54 but I am not totally sure.)
2954. Anarchy is the most authoritarian thing there is / Anhierarchy causes individuals to become sovereign States over themselves that, through their ability to reject interactions and relationships, remove self-determination or internal "mind democracy" from other individuals, superficially similar to the way anhierarchy between nation-states creates First-World coercion producing Third-World "tyranny" / Anarchy Is The Most Authoritarian Thing There Is (slogan) -> slogan associated with unfinished MDem chapter "ProblemOfAnarchy"/"rain". the concept is that when there is no government the horizontal actions of individuals merely replace and perform the same regulatory actions government would do, because all populations of people have similar basic needs and they will all use the means available to them at the moment to achieve those needs. relationships and relationship boundaries are forced to play the role of The State, and in certain senses relationships become "authoritarian". can also refer to more general processes of Filamentism where if there are no central decisions the process of a population structuring itself takes the form of every surrounding individual repeatedly dealing out punishment until the target individual miraculously figures out how to do exactly what they need and have the capacity to do it really well. most technically, this slogan is referring not to particular Anarchist Social-Philosophical-Material Systems called "anarchy", but to the structural open-plurality of anektiry — but very few people throughout recent history have bothered to give the concept of anektiry or anhierarchy its own proper name, hence the colloquial use of "anarchy" in these edgy slogan phrases.

2962. Empowering the individual is impossible without a science of society -> everyone acts like individual choices can fix everything. everything. but most of the time that's impossible to pull off because making the correct individual choice requires having information about what the choice will result in, that none of us actually have. you can directly throw Gödel's incompleteness theorem at that claim. it's impossible to reason your way to the correct decision when reasoning never perfectly grounds itself in reality. so in effect, it's impossible to use individual decisions to create Freedom. there we go, first decent logical proof against Guattari. as ironic as using propositional logic may be given what I just said. that doesn't matter right now.

2971. Existing daily is an extreme position, not a moderate one / It's infinitely more ideologically moderate to not exist than to exist / All mortal lifeforms who eat and take up space are extremists -> the claim that because all existence is subject to the chunk phenomenon, nobody can actually "mind their own business" without being considered an extremist by somebody and royally pissing somebody off. everyone potentially conflicts with the existence of other people just by existing, because all goals are descriptions of changes to material reality, but some people won't want those changes, and may even be offended. with a particular morality, this transforms into the Buddhist proposition that when people come into conflict it's just better not to have goals. without that particular framing, this turns into the mathematical model of Filamentism, in which people's ability to align onto particular goals either increasingly builds social graphs or leads to vicious competition over who will be allowed to fill each open connection within the structure.

2975. Liberalism is all political systems / Liberalism is the combination of every possible political faction into one country including Marxism and Anarchisms
2976. Every ideology perceives the absence of others as Freedom / Every ideology perceives the absence of other ideologies as Freedom -> the major reason I believe that "proposition NO" is unlikely. Trotskyists think the absence of mainstream Marxism-Leninism is Freedom, as do Anarchists. but Tories think the absence of Anarchism is Freedom because there are very specific kinds of things they want — some of them very ugly, like deliberate socioempire / Chunk Enterprise. sometimes this goes all the way into the gutter, with White people just thinking the absence of Black people or Palestinians is Freedom, etc. it depends on how much people let "culture" rule their population and buy into the concept of countable Cultures as fundamental to human existence while nation-states are not.

2990. Existentialism is why we never automate bosses -> intersubjectivity-theory Existentialists always insist that society changes because people Freely Decide to behave with empathy, but the contradiction in this is that for that to have any chance of being true you have to deliberately design society in tyrannical ways where the destiny of a lot of people is in the hands of one person that you hope is really really nice. if you truly make society depend on a whole lot of separate people at once it tends to behave in deterministic ways rather than the thoughtful rationalist way a single person might think. intersubjectivity Existentialists are likely to also be fine with the notion of schizoanalytic Escape, so they're going to love the notion of creating more capitalists to absorb people who are unsatisfied with current corporations by virtue of the fact the new ones are really really nice and they're supposedly going to spend their donations toward better political ad campaigns. the whole problem and fallacy of Existentialism is that it is all about dividing society into plural populations where the individuals supposedly see each other "as equals". Existentialism is when Twilight Sparkle and her five friends are such good friends that when they see Starlight Glimmer and how she is not linking up with people and being nice to them in exactly the way Twilight has friends, they mark her out as a threat to all their friends.
2991. If intersubjectivity actually worked, there would never have been a Cold War / If Existentialism actually worked, there would never have been a Cold War -> one of the major themes that Existentialism is constantly pounding through people's heads is that the normal, original state of things is for human beings to automatically and immediately experience empathy toward anything different [... angry redacted] Existentialism never caused anybody to experience mandatory tolerance of the USSR in this sense, or any Marxist party-nation.

Teamwork is nothing, ontology is key -> a little hyperbolic and potentially controversial by itself. but look into it deeper and you'll start to see what it means. people believe capitalists build successful business territories because the capitalist is a capable strong individual. they don't, they succeed simply because the answer was correct and people did the correct answer. at other times, more Existentialist people want to believe that just having a bunch of people together believing in each other achieves something. not necessarily. whether we're talking about a business or a movement, all the people in it have to do the correct answer or nothing happens. the correct answer to a problem simply is. it can be found by one person studying reality tirelessly or it can be found by a bunch of people in a party, but it's correct because it's true to the real world, not because a smart person said it or somebody believed in it really hard. Jeff Bezos is not key. Jeff Bezos' workers are not key all by themselves. Stalin, Trotsky, and Guattari are not key. the correct answer, the correct ontological model of how to arrange people, is what's key.
