I speak the language of love, you speak the language of fear.

Well right now you're speaking the language of "making others wrong".
You sound like that "Dank" guy right there, no offense. lol.

Loving people seek to understand others first rather than
be understood. Not sure I see that much of that in you.
But I think you would be understood better if you stick
to one context at a time and to allow yourself to explain
things within other people's worldviews and definitions.

take care JF

The tricky thing about that is... I do understand you. I was subjected to the same indoctrination you were.

I guess I'm just not ready to be unplugged from the matrix
and ascend to the Shangri-La of wisdom as you have.

The real pity is the mental anguish you will subject yourself to by clinging to a dying system built upon a foundation of falsehood about human nature.

To believe humans are inherently selfish creatures is to believe that a 300 years dead philosopher had a better grasp of our nature than the whole of modern science. An absurdity that borders on religious levels of non-logic. Why do you cling to this outdated Hobbesian notion in the face of the heaps of evidence I have laid out this very thread? The only conclusion I can draw is that you are incapable of unlearning your indoctrination in the same way the religious person is incapable of unlearning theirs.

As religion is a language virus that dulls critical thinking, perhaps the same is true of any system instilled in the formative years which we are taught to accept without question. All authority must be questioned, all assertions must be questioned. Without the vital scientific tool of doubt, a child is left unable to discern for himself what is true from the myths the herd has accepted as "cultural truth".

Capitalism is one such cultural truth (read the Emphatic Ciyvilization). Homo Sapien monogamy is another (read Sex at Dawn). Both are lies. Both are melting away, right now. In capitalism's, dear reader, you should hope it is melting faster than the polar ice caps.

I hope one day we come to see formative years indoctrination as mental child abuse that is just as repugnant as physical abuse. Creating brainwashed intellectual cripples permanently damages not only the child but also the world.
