“The standard definition of sublimation is the elevation of an ordinary object to the dignity of a Thing. As Lacan aptly demonstrated apropos courtly love, an ordinary object (woman) is there elevated to the dignity of the Thing, she becomes an ‘inhuman partner,’ dangerous to get too close to, always out of reach, mixing horror and respect.”

We are told that mental illness isn’t violent and that to suggest otherwise is to stigmatize those who suffer. I can’t imagine more offensive bullshit than this, especially since it often comes from the competent ill who have the luxury of framing the world’s perception of illness. Mental illness is nothing but violence. It perpetrates violence against your own mind. It hacks and burns and […]

(ik, “zero religious debate” but gotta post the long paragraph due to the m3at munching that going to be happen by the people I’m talking about) This dude sounds like the one of those people who used to be christians who turned into buddhists, who can’t let go of the habit of following something merely validated among the primitive bunch, who can’t live without a shepherd, […]

„What makes you think human beings are sentient and aware? There’s no evidence for it. Human beings never think for themselves, they find it too uncomfortable. For the most part, members of our species simply repeat what they are told-and become upset if they are exposed to any different view. The characteristic human trait is not awareness but conformity, and the characteristic […]

“the elephant in the brain, n. An important but un­ack­now­ledged fea­ture of how our minds work; an introspective taboo.” The Elephant in the Brain is an informative and well-written book, co-authored by Kevin Simler and Robin Hanson. It explains why much of our behavior is driven by unflattering, hidden motives, as well as why our minds are built to be unaware of these motives. In […]

In this article I will explain the lyrics of Dissection’s last album, Reinkaos. This album is almost 12 years old, and I still haven’t found a comprehensive guide to all its lyrics, so I thought I might just write one. Introduction Some members of the band – most notably the vocalist Jon Nödtveidt – were involved in the Misanthropic Luciferian Order (MLO), which was later […]

Kombinace velkého mozku a vzpřímené chůze zajistila, že jsme jediné zvíře, které dokáže (vlastním) prudkým pohybem omdlít. Také jde o důvod, proč vás bolí záda. Máme velký sexy mozek, na který jsem právem pyšní, ale platíme za to nemalou cenu (viz níže). Za naši chloubu musíme být vděčí schopnosti chůze po dvou končetinách, o čemž si nyní povíme něco […]

In critique of pure reason Kant claims that we cannot come to a trustworthy philosophical conclusion through a mathematical means (construction of a concept through which truth is determined). But then proposes that we can build a practical philosophical system with the use of pure reason based on regulative principles which are based on antinomies(god, freedom, infinity etc…) But […]

The philosophy of the western world posits that an external, objective world interacts with us through scientific experiment, thus science creates objectively true laws. Other European philosophy holds, correctly in my opinion, that talk of an objective reality is beyond experience and is thus meaningless babble. Moreover, a scientific experiment is no more objective than a child’s attempt […]
