Acid teaches us that our experience of the world can be altered and is not rigid or set in stone. Buddhism teaches us the illusion of subject object duality and quantum physics demonstrates that the subject effects the object. The conclusion is a new materialism that includes our idealism i.e. the world can be altered through discourse and engagement.🧘♀️
“ideas that cannot be embodied are basically entertainment” Yes, absolutely. I think about this a lot. You can follow YT streams and Xitter accounts and whatnot but at the end of the day if the stuff communicated via these mediums can’t be realized in the day-to-day life you live, they are more or less entertainment or a palliative to make living in an uncertain world easier to handle. Given that people can’t just conjure up community and local political movements out of thin air it’s an easy trap to get stuck in but also understandable because we don’t currently know how to create interconnected real world movements that can bring people together in a non-superficial way.
28:30 Anger is a boundary defense mechanism and can easily be exploited as such but let's not forget that you'll need it if you want to learn anything at all pretty much.
~20:00 Maybe Russell Brand is a center left figure in the sense that what he does is to try to bully elected members of parliament into discussing multi trillion dollar issues (edit: And isn't that method what representative democracy boils down to?). He's got a tedious/superlative style and manner of approaching important topics worthy of disucssion and there is something to dislike about people like that getting the digital front page so to speak. I just also dislike it when people call it tailism or whatever to work with what is (a) given.
Varn upload, best Christmas gift ever!
This is the most enlightening discourse. You can tell you’ve put in hard work meditating.
