@WilyRickWiles, @govols words only mean what you think, they are abstracts of ideas. Communism is the ideal human state. A well adjusted nuclear family is fully communist. Unfortunately, words hijack the thought process, Wily, if that's your real name, to use the term Alt Right is a bit disingenuous and trollish in this forum. I'm new here, no offense meant at all, but to use connotative words like that distract from real conversation. From what I've seen so far, there's plenty of free spiritedness, but some real thinkers, too. @govols seems to be one of them.

@TimTuolomne Of course Einstein was wrong. The quantum theory clearly shows that. Good quotes, we are certainly closer to being gods than ever before. This virus is a good check on hubris, but if you have enough money, you just self quarantine on a yacht. You isolate yourself from the hoi polloi. Who knows how many billions are being poured into extending life, editing the genes that cause aging, The fountain of youth is just millimeters from our grasp. Maybe we are meant to become Gods. It doesn't make sense that after we die there's no progression after that, if there's any progression at all, over eternity everyone is destined to become a god.

Oh hydroxychloroquine is being researched--with Gates Foundation funding no less--and the FDA issued an emergency authorization for its use in treating COVID-19, but it's otherwise untested and can have nasty side effects. Trump is a gossip and a bullshit artist, not a medical expert.
SupraLibrix replies on Mar 30, 2020:
But the FDA now agrees that it's NOT BS. I'm hard left in most things, but I sold used cars in SoCal, the name of the game is BS artistry. That doesn't mean the BS is false. The best BS is fluffed up truth. In this case, Trump took anecdotal evidence and it turns out he's ahead of the FDA bureaucratic curve. This just fuels conspiracy theories when the FDA is slow on the draw, do you see what I mean?

My theory could be construed as a sort of atheistic monotheism where there is a human perfection defined. At the second coming, there will be atheists saying it isn't real. I think it's inevitable that atheists populate higher learning, but we've reached a tipping point, we now have tools so precise that when we measure the atom, we realize there's nothing there but what we want there to be. Free will. The universe is made of free will. Dice is the only game that God plays. What do you see for the future of higher education?

There is a place for colleges in developing interpersonal skills. It's just a shame that the bureaucrats took them over and allowed in a 19th century cult.
SupraLibrix replies on Mar 30, 2020:
It's a little hyperbolic, I agree. This panic probably did more to move the global consciousness than 5 or 10 years without one. I agree with the lefties that college should be essentially free. Or no more than the cost of students physically taking care of the facilities to pay their way. Apprenticeships will make a comeback in a big way. Good times are ahead.

@wolfhnd Without a special purpose, it would be the end of the human race, right? ;) I hope to correct the tragedy that philosophy has taken a back seat to science. There are only two things that determine reality: Philosophy and Physics. And philosophy comes first. What I've done is create a philosophy that is amoral and antithetical to faith. It allows for free will. You pick. Love or money. Money rules the physical world and is governed by the laws of physics. Life rules the psychological world and is governed by the laws of Physix. Ambitious, but I have some very big plans with it, it's a way of looking at the world that makes obvious some things that were in plain site, but ignored. Please feel free to criticize or contribute. I'm going to be submitting for a Templeton Grant to implement it on a grand scale. https://www.templetonprize.org/ Sir Templeton made billions by capitalizing on "Peak pessimism". We are living the most pessimistic period in history.

@TimTuolomne I cut my theory's teeth on Facebook, it is not well received by anyone on the Left. They ignore or dismiss the outliers of illegal immigration, censorship, gun control, etc. As you say in your bio: I'm trying to "be a nuisance where it counts" If the Right ignores the outliers, they will be blind to the causes and solutions. My theory defines reality and how to manage it. If you don't manage the outliers, they will manage you.

@GeeMac specifically, and I see it as very common in Academia, the inability to recognize the cultural forces at play. To me it's inevitable that there be a shift in power from left to right. The left has controlled the culture for generations. Meantime, the world has been so safe for democracy that people who have only been competent to AVOID any physical violence in their own lives are those in charge of people who actually deal with it. I've heard him acknowledge his occasional TDS, but to miss the bigger cultural forces seems harder and harder to comprehend for me.

Boundary confusion is among the ways a vastly superior intellect will fail to outperform an inferior. "I can not deny but that the best for false accusers is silence and sufference, and honest deeds set against dishonest words." - John Milton.
SupraLibrix replies on Mar 28, 2020:
@TimTuolomne your definition of boundary sounds very aristocratic. The internet is purely ideological. The only boundaries are those imposed by culture or hardware. I'm looking to change the first one.

SupraLibrix replies on Mar 28, 2020:
@wolfhnd The psychological trap is that happiness is infinitely variable and imaginary. You can't define it for everyone in the same way, but if someone is dead, their happiness becomes irrelevant in the physical world. So the goal is to provide the most life, E possible and the least amount of unhappy labor.

@wolfhnd the value of a $100 bill is imaginary. It's concentrated Idea(s), Time and Work. It can be traded for any one of those, but you may not get what you think you are trading for. Happiness is psychological, you need a currency for that. It is E. Life. Just like $, you may not get what you think you are trading for. What this does is allow for a graph of happiness. This is my work in progress, I'm trying to put together a definitive guide. https://tinyurl.com/physix101 http://physix.guru/ has a few rough drafts, I genuinely appreciate any time invested.
