where the factory links up with the computer, and the computer with the internet, and the internet with the great big megamind...

we're technical beings. stiegler says as much, that progress as a civilization means technical progress. we don't even have to get rid of the past or anything in this sense: it's simply not good to destroy other human minds, however.

but we're much more similar than different, or at least our metaphysical differences are being subsumed by technological processes that we all have access to, and that - at least inasmuch as we are consumers - pretty much can treat us all the same way. and maybe this is even what we want, sometimes.

in summa, metanoia > paranoia. that's where i want to go. i want my paranoia to be confirmed and procede thereby to level-2 in one sense or another.

>marxists in general creep me the hell out even though I owe a lot to their thinking
kek. me too.

>it'll all be dredged up by the cybernetic inquisition
who's the cybernetic inquisition?

as for postironic, i don't know. i don't think there's any need for a kind of a stance. hyperstition &c are fun but sanity is generally preferable. or again, metanoia > paranoia.

>I can't stand Badiou desu and marxists in general creep me the hell out even though I owe a lot to their thinking. I know a bit and have been studying hard, but looking at the tower of textbooks to get through to get anywhere close to graduate level in mathematical econ and physics etc is daunting AF and im not even high IQ enough to pull it off, I can't shake the awful reveries and unsee.

maybe you can be one of those enlightened outsiders. there are systematic uni philosophers and there are mavericks and outsiders. don't get me wrong, i'd love it if you conquered that stack of textbooks and wrote the future as an IQ 190+ overlord. but i guess i feel that i'd prefer that if you were looking into these themes you didn't feel discouraged by it all either. maybe that's just selfish of me, because if you were going to write something interesting, i want it!

>Maybe the real redpill is just literal Seroquel.
maybe. philosophy is really the theory and practice of anarcho-masochism, in a way. there are fucking dark days. no question. but there are good ones too.

i hope you have a run of good ones anon.
