  • I Don’t Really Recommend Philosophy

    —” might have done better by reading the summaries of the major philosophers first instead of going through their complete works one by one. Still, I’m going through them pretty fast.”— Martin Štěpán

    I don’t really recommend philosophy, but science and economics instead. That said, myself I just read the Encyclopedia of Philosophy. And most of the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, and I don’t know how many summaries of the works of philosophers before I ‘bothered’ with the source material. And even then, except for starting with aristotle and plato like everyone else, I worked backwards from the present to the past. Because it’s readily apparent from that process what’s worth reading and what’s drivel.

We could have, instead of Christian ethics, emptied the world of all of you – easily. And you are giving us incentive to stop dragging you, and instead correct our error.”—

  • Women Now Blame the Patriarch (men) Instead of The Devil

    —“Women are higher in empathizing on the empathy/systems spectrum. This makes them more likely to attribute some will to mere emergent properties of systems (like nature). This makes them more religious. Except now they don’t blame the devil but the patriarchy.”—Martin Štěpán

  • So if All You Have Is a Hammer….

    From Uncle Eli Harman: Woman: “My husband is like one more child…” Me, an Intellectual: “Literally all your faculties evolved to deal with children, so if all you have is a hammer…” ANALYSIS 1) women control 80% of household spending 2) women control 70% of retail spending 3) women control 70% of government resources Men give women their resources and want something for them. Women consume give their children, or give to child substitutes, like pets or ‘the disadvantaged’, those resources. and expect only their own psychological rewards for having done so. The relationship between men and women is not equal.
