POSTMODERNISM: NARCISSISM OF SMALL DIFFERENCES ALL IN LOVE WITH TOTALITARIANISM.
POSTMODERNISM: NARCISSISM OF SMALL DIFFERENCES ALL IN LOVE WITH TOTALITARIANISM.
(humor)(Sorry, but gotta repeat this)
Q: What’s the difference between Heidegger, Sartre and Foucault?
A: It’s just narcissism of small differences. All of them extolled the value of freedom (in theory), but in practice they all fell in love with various forms of totalitarianism. Heidegger supported Hitler, Sartre supported Stalin, and Foucault supported Khomeini.

TALEB AND DOOLITTLE
(worth repeating)
And Taleb is the counter to Keynesian Probabilism, the same way I am counter to Marxist, Boasian, Freudian, Frankfurt School, Postmodern pseudoscience and pseudo-rationalism. And there are very few of us working on ending the 19th-20th century’s experiment with ‘new mysticism’.
Taleb = truth in probability. (anti-innumeracy – numbers )
Doolittle = Truth is testimony. (anti-fictionalism – words )

TRUMP LOOKS FOR AND USES POSTURING TO DRIVE OPPONENTS INTO “FAIR DEALS”.
If you posture or virtue signal, Trump will humiliate you for it. Trump takes posturing off the table. He is a master of it. And his response is always the same: “lets just do a fair deal”. This is a variation on “The Last Moral Man” negotiating tactic. This strategy is almost impossible to defeat. Which is one of the reasons it’s helpful to have a larger number of people involved in any negotiation – so that people posture themselves into traps, which you can then use against them.
(I know because I do the same damned thing)

Probabilities and Psuedoscience
Keynes’ first work was in probability. He was a successful investor. He used probabilities where the law used operations (Legal transactions). He institutionalized the ludic fallacy: that games with limits mirrors human actions that consistently expand limits. All economies head toward disequilibrium. Growth is in fact an instance of disequilibrium.

Dragging Others Down to Their Level
—“Religion is a guilt economy. Look at the Left. They’ve even got Original Sin (white privilege). Contemporary politics is just a way for people to answer for the guilt they feel about their own flaws by shaming others into feeling guilty. Its just some religions say greed is a sin where others say being white is a sin.”— Dann Hopkins —“They even have their end of days prophecy in climate change.”–John Clayton (brilliant)
