Health continuing to deteriorate, treatments still not acquired (one medication denied by insurance and its $3000 out of pocket; the other medication could exacerbate potential latent heart issues), & I’m only half way through my first semester of grad school. Pls pray 4 me 🙏🙏

I don’t even know what I am politically anymore. All I know is I ascribe to whatever DeKoninck talks about in ‘The Primacy of the Common Good.’ Other than that, I believe in radical policy changes that will save this country from ruin. And, no, I’m not a groyper, or republican.

I’m pioneering a new philosophical theory. I’m calling it “The Go Home Solution.” Basically, we all just agree that some guy in the past couple thousand years got a lot of it correct and then we all just go home because there’s no more philosophy and we just kinda agree. 👍

This way, nobody ever has to write an annotated bibliography again and nobody ever has to talk to a Kantian again because there won’t be Kantians. We’ll all be like “Yeah, I guess Nicholas of Cusa basically figured it out. Okay, see you guys later,” and we’ll be happy 😊 👍💗

How do I even find journal articles on contemporary philosophy which are relevant to the senses being illumined by the intellect ‘secundum quandan refluentiam’ ???

If Rubio could emulate the rhetorical abilities of Hitler a bit more then this would have been the greatest speech from an American politician in recent history
We believe that the West can awaken from its long slumber – and rekindle the fire that was first lit in ancient Greece millennia ago.

Part of that might be giving this speech at an event with less formality & more young people. Look at Nick's 2023 post-CPAC speech; totally electric due to the dynamic he is able to have with the crowd. Maybe its a pipe dream to think this is possible for an American politician.

2 points on anti-semitism: 1) One of the big problems with anti-semitism today is that it is relatively mainstream. Therefore, mid to low IQ people adopt antisemitic beliefs. They, however, do not have the power to reason deeply or correctly about complex issues... 1/?

... they actually spent some time with Jewish coastal elites. They would either see that these people are elites for a reason (intelligent, cultured, charismatic, etc.) or they would (subconsiously) ignore such things & double down into a low-IQ antisemitism... 3/?

... based on a feeling of inferiority and/or jealousy. In short, it is problematic to derive a worldview and/or opinion of a whole group of people based on Chabad-Lubavitch, Itamar Ben-Gvir, and other fringe characters/groups. NB: I am necessarily generalizing here. 4/4
