Towards a Naïve (nihilist) Philosophy

<<Click for Part One

Part Two.

107.

Like freedom, humanism is a built idol, it’s a statue that exists not everywhere, but where it does exist, it is a heavy statue that is used against everyone.

108.

Idolatry is genuine which doesn’t mean idols shouldn’t be hammered down.

109.

The gist of things: We could be so much better. In realising that we are the destiny of our own possible greatness, we are such failures.

110.

Individually, destiny is wrapped up in all of the intricacies of physical interactions between you, the world and nature which is the foundation of our world. Guilt is not a stand alone feature, it is determined by cultures previously.

111.

So, when people look at ‘others’, the intricate nature of our physical environment (culture), is fundamental—though unacknowledged—in performing this ‘look’.

112.

Tabular rasa is as strong a myth as freedom is to humanity’s view of itself. There is nothing new under the sun, evolution happened in nature. Is the Big Bang the original ‘blank slate’ as it is said to have come from nothing?

113.

No building has ever been done without rubble to build from. Human-kind has never existed on a blank slate, rather on a rocky planet where the idols had to be literally built. This is morality.

114.

Being able to build structures, to manipulate nature, was our own doing, not god(s). When we did this we were so pleased that we invented god(s). When we encountered things insurmountable we again invented god(s) – look at Greek mythology. This is why we killed god: we make and we can destroy.

115.

λόγος, word, is the origin of the understanding of human existence. It encompasses all beliefs and all history.

116.

As logos is the origin of laws, the word can be the ultimate tool of oppression. Or emancipation. This is evidenced by history (interpretation).

117.

All civilisations need gadflies.

118.

Ethos and morality are different subjects.

119.

The law, today, is groaning under it’s own weight, it needs emancipation from itself. Instead we enact more laws thinking this is more freedom.

120.

The ‘ding an sich’ or the Kantian noumenon, is the foundation of an essential myth that has taken precedence over a life interpretation of what is: we are all looking for that one thing, a theory of everything, when we should only acknowledge becoming and changing (Heraclitus).

121.

I have idols of which I’m more than prepared to hammer. This stance must be taken by all active philosophers.

122.

Is freedom the ability to vote for someone who shares your view or to vote for someone who expands your view and makes your view better, or the least worst option?

123.

I see no good reason to not use world events to promulgate thinking, proposals, possibilities (but not morals) and anything that creates with as free a conscience as possible.

124.

Preferring not to have child poverty and human poverty, generally, is not a moral choice it’s a natural response. Moral choices are not natural they are wrapped up in the power choices of the powerful: the State and before that, the priest.

125.

A fact for the freedom loving Europeans: the law was used to steal land from the Indigenous Peoples of the Americas and Australia (of course, slavery was legal, too). Why? Because the laws are unnatural impositions. Land ownership is a fraudulent law used against natural justice. No wonder idols built on such land (colonialism and Empire) are rotten to the core.

126.

Freedom is to travel. Freedom is to acquire. Freedom is to use the law to acquire. Freedom is to oppress. Freedom is to claim your righteousness. Freedom soils itself.

127.

Basically, the Nation State as evidenced in the liberal West, through it’s lawful crimes, have the most ‘freedom’ and ’emancipation’. They have used their invented tool, the law, to oppress other people’s wealth, culture and prosperity, thus increasing their own wealth (material wealth and propaganda wealth). Yet still in the liberal West, no one is happy.

128.

I think you are too scared to undress, to be truthful to your self, to claim your righteous freedom away from the herd.

129.

Morality is a disease I am trying to escape from, like a slave fleeing his master.

130.

If freedom is an approximation then freedom is fought over.

131.

Real philosophers are not academics. Academics love certainties, intricacies, yes, dream worlds.

132.

Murder is not wrong, per se.

133.

Hypocrisy is the constant theme in morality, therefore civilisation. This is because we are afraid to be our self. Only man truthful to his own self can make the steps towards the Free Spirit: a dancing with no grounding, no system of recognition, always reinventing.

134.

The worst of the humanists are the fucking French.

135.

I am ‘free’ to have prejudice, this is taught in Western humanities, they call it ‘free speech’. At the same time, ‘free speech’ is a prescription.

136.

It seems that the liberal West likes to show its ‘free speech’ negatively by using it to insult other peoples and all with the connivance of their State, a State that toys with its herd as though each herd member is a puppet on a string. Are we puppet’s on a string?

137.

The freedom of the Free Spirit is in its use against the State, its politicians and its media. There is much danger for the authentic self, one reason for their detachment from the herd.

138.

The real criminals and terrorists is the State, its why they’re surrounded by goons.

139.

There’s a lot of rubble to make before new buildings are to be made. I have my hammer at the ready.

140.

I look at humanity and can’t help thinking of destruction, with shame not pity.

141.

To create new idols from the rubble you need to breathe in the fresh mountain air.

142.

Free speech is extreme or its nothing, its extremities (pudenda!) are in the heights not the squalid ground where the herd roams chewing on its ressentiment.

143.

Hammer authority. Hammer the State which is the foundation of man’s obedience and contains all of the institutions that infantilise man as lick-spittles.

144.

Politics is detrimental to life. It’s possibly the opposite of life. To reach any rarefied ground politics and politicians need to be removed from polluting the Spirit’s (self) waters of life.

145.

The importance of nihilism is it’s potential to enable renewal. We’ve all played a game in which we’ve wished to restart, maybe that’s possible in life? First you have to unlearn everything you’ve been told/taught, you have to unlearn your life.

146.

Bias……what hilarious nonsense. People use this term as an insult forgetting that they are being biased by the use of their insult.

147.

Liberalism is a sort of chauvinism.

148.

The abyss is a slowly enveloping everything.

149.

A new culture….
