in my own odd way i have been exploring this path and likewise have come to the conclusion that looking outward to tag the 'correct' villain with the societal viillainy of which i am a part is a, maybe _*the*_, manner of perpetuating the schismogenesis paradigm and its manifestation. this is called out with the concomitant creation/ tagging of the hero-heroine.
a simple action that pulls back hero-villainy conspiracy worship is to simply stop blaming and complaining about any and all things. that doesn't mean ignoring or denying what we are experiencing and what our mind is drawn to. not at all. note our blame complaints and look inwards for how we are independently co-creating them.
we have met the enemy. the enemy is us.
and my last essay looks at the way that the belief in reason is an ideological superstition and effective schismogenic weapon. and so a soft synchronicity.
Sorry for the typos, looks and feels bad. Compulsive urge to get thoughts down quick but need to tighten spell checks, mea culpa.
Also looking forward for the review of Gilad Atzmon's book I didn't read the Wandering Who only his last one "Being In Time" (he recently replied to me asking him if he's working on a new one but responded
pretty unambiguously that his writing career is over, has already written all he wanted to and doesnt have anything more to say)
One thing I remember getting from his book was what I thought the clearest, most succint definition/distinction between what being on the left or on the right means, how do the two sides differ in their approach to managing society, etc. I always suspected that whole Hegelian Left Vs Right paradigm was, well, suspect, or like, from the outside looking in and at the wheel inside a ferret's cage. Same old same old
Shame this post will not be read by coincidence theorists. Which is why it's almost impossible to compare notes, they rarely indulge opposing views in my experience.
A short recap of the broader picture and inner machinations, as well as the crucial interplay between the two, was needed. Appreciate you taking the foot of the pedal, and the breather.
Michael Parenti is the one who in the plainest, most clever way broke the whole conspiracy theorist thing down. Apart from the practical things, the process by which the combining of those two words (conspiracy theorist) and the incessant weaponization now verging on criminalization Parenti showed how matter of factly the act is as common as anything. Not telling you anything you don't already know more like flustered I can find neither that video clip of Parenti nor the audio I thought I dictated and saved as a text note cuz I rememer thinking out of the thousands of times I had heard someone explaining it that one is the absolute best. It was from the late 90s early aughts :(
One of the hardest most disturbing things to witness is seeing how the so called US liberal side until Gaza seemed to be on board with pretty much all wars of the last few decades. Course the term US Liberal means as much as conspiracy theorist but you know what I am saying. Lastly I remember being exactly 20yo when I bought Bill Cooper's book having been recommended by a brother in Miami. I didn't know until reading Mark Jakobson's book Pale Horse Rider on BAPH and Cooper's own life that it's both the most stolen book at Barnes & Nobles and most widely read book in the US Prison system. Back then being a conspiracy theorist was not only not forbidden but hip. Nooostalgia 😆
That's the one !!! One line I remember well in that bit. Great info and insights as always. Bateson's schismogenesis, homophobia etc.. to me I dunno if its bc I lived my life where I chased having free time to think read and nurtured my creatIve activities combined with a decision to drop out of HS and leave Italy for the US at a young age so I caught most of the last decade of the last millennium but I can't see myself not being a so called conspiracy analyst to adopt the older Gote Vidal way to self describe. Only in my mid 30s did I start seeing where my conspiratorial reading of history came from. Born in the middle of the Anni di Piombo aka Strategia della Tensione in Padova where both Toni Negri Uni Prof cum -armed spontaneity- accelerationist revolutionary group founder Marxist bestsellng author on one side and Franco Freda the founder of Nazi-Maosim, highly literate publisher (he speaks like a learned monk from centuries ago)
forbidden texts Edizioni di Ar who in 1969 authored a book many in some circles regard as a classic, The Disintegration of the System) .. and even if not superstitious just as self-centered as a maker of things should be I found out I was born on a bad really bad day specifically for Germans that is Nov 9th, schickstalstag or day of fate, which I dont need explain to you about that ahah. Also in EIR I read Padova was a deeply Atostotelian city (Pietro D'Amato, at some point the most famous magician among other things, Galileo of course and I learned reading EIR mag 😀 that especially during its centuries long rule by The Most Serene Republic aka La Serenissima (imo already the name is a total giveaway.. some description of how those canals were used in the old days come to mind.. Venice's fetid scents are as notorious as they're frequent)
Apropos of The Matrix movie, it's quite interesting to see the director brothers going thru those changes in the years and decades following their movie. Also thanks for the link to that Michael Hoffman article
Wow! And this somehow brings to my mind Jung's remarks about how he foresaw the rise of Nazism while analyzing the dreams or whatever of his German patients
Gilad's books are dynamite haha. Your review will be a fascinating read, I'm sure.
hola, jasun.

fixed a couple of typos - was written with thumbs on a small screen in a 'rough' oaxaca bus.

I am familiar with his scathing commentary, including his joke about "men getting together in a roooom, how crazy is that!?"
