Identity Technologies for Achieving Profilic Superiority...
...or Simply Hubris and an Inflated Self-Esteem?
The Identity Tech Underlying the Social Cancellation Phenomena
From The Book of Ecclesiastes:
1 The words of the Preacher,[a] the son of David, king in Jerusalem.
2 Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher, vanity of vanities! All is vanity.
Curtis Yarvin: "You can only LOSE the Culture War"

Culture... what we CALL culture -- that is just a manure. An excrements. Rubbish and trash.
We teached to destinguish and admit ONLY when it rotting and thrown out of a window as daily trash.
REAL Culture -- that is part of a process itself. Seen by a few.
Deleuze on "Culture"
Deleuze mocks the formula: "Be yourselves - it being understood that this self must be that of others". - Culture is not a movement of normalization or conformity. - "Culture(...) is an involuntary adventure, the movement of learning which links a Sensibility, a Memory and then a Thought, with all the cruelties and violence necessary, as Nietzsche said, precisely in order to "Train a Nation of Thinkers" or to "Provide a Training for the Mind."
aka - Centuries of torture during the Middle Ages (Geneology of Morals, 2nd Essay) with which I (from Foucault) would argue it's "transition" from physical causes for culture to psychological ones today (Society of Sovereignty -> Disciplinary Society -> Control Society -> Achievement Society) moving from all stick to all carrot, from physical barriers/ pens to virtual ones.
In other words... Techno-culture.
The medium IS the message!
Yawn.
You know what I find fascinating. And why.
And that is not such talks.
You know -- P, for Pragmatism.
