Our lives have been inexorably changed. F ac ebook searches better with more results, spelled this way. This is the mark, that signifying element in our psyche, that a paradigm has changed. J.P. Guilford had a theory about what he called (and what many businesses adopted since) - 'Divergent Thinking.' He divided thought or intelligence into two parts. Divergent and Convergent. Divergent goes from one point out, convergent, from multiple points inward. In abstract though like forming the concept 'political system' it uses both with a primary focus of brain-TO-left with right as the origin in my theory or belief.

Freedom begins with the premise that objectivity is its only corollary.
That is, beginning with the political, the freedom of man to choose his own thoughts and actions, beliefs and values, is not causally independent of creating and sustaining a rational and objective government to protect that right, and vice versa: that an objective government depends on a rational and objective populous to remain in a progressive existence, and perhaps to exist at all.
This means that the right of man to choose his own beliefs and to allow society to accept and protect this right is contingent upon the rationality and accordance with reality of that social system.
Then make it against the law to be Republican. Or liberal. The new Fascism will end the religious nut's reign of Terror over our civilization when we crush their descent. Civil War is coming to the US for the second time. You can't grow without pain. Hopefully we can breed out idiocy with genetic engineering and either dispose of or force the rest of the Tea Partier's to be our slaves.
This is not a joke. I mean it. With all my heart and soul and mind. Destroy the right, take back our country by force!

How does polyamory work? And does it work?
The one thing that makes polyamory work is being in love. To the bone.
If you are not in love, passionately or do not think 100% of the time this is the primary man, woman or tranny etc., for me for the rest of my life, no questions asked, even and especially within yourself--don't bother.
Belief is the conviction that something exists. It is anathema to faith, which is an anti-concept. This is because truth is a 'thoughts conformity to (concrete) reality,' and since belief can only be a conviction that something exists--faith, a belief in God, something that doesn't exist, is not a thing, save only a floating label and social reality.
"Racism is one of if not the most disgusting forms of collectivism." - Ayn Rand
This is absolutely true. Well, emotionally anyway. I feel that way about this rather problematic and often subjective problem.
Conformists are people that fear social rejection to such a degree as to need to 'fit in' and by like the people they are in fear of being in rejection of, most. This leads to circles of tightly nit social groups that one can clearly spot displays the following variants of hipster, which today, having completely reversed its meaning, equals what used to be 'square.' Hipster, today means conformist. Most people I deal with happen to be hipsters, though no one seems to admit it. Here are a mock list of what I've picked up so far:
-They talk about themselves in some kind of 3rd person cute name as per girls.
Let me say this clearly and distinctly: Net Neutrality is the internet's Trojan Horse.
Net Neutrality does not mean a gain for the people who have instituted it, by any means ultimately.
The single most destructive idea in our culture is the notion that we are nothing but products of our environments.
"Free Your Mind," the MTV media used to tell us.
They don't tell us that anymore.
Another very real equivocation that we deal with on a daily basis is the confounding of the profit motive with personally or collectively held values.
They are two different things.
The profit motive is also not always capitalism.
A Stream of Consciousness Blog: (AKA: A Rambling)
One really great example of how altruism is built into contemporary friendships: A lot of people ask me and I sometimes I ask myself--what is the real concrete difference between objectivist leaning people and the rest of everyone else?
As is per usual, my process of doing series' of paintings from sketches and even drawings, always older. This is because my brain works via stream of consciousness and my headspace is not always where it needs to be to execute that painting, so in a way, a sketch for a future painting, is a message in bottle to a future person in many ways, I may not have even met.
It occurs to me that there is more than one type of selfishness. I have realized this, once again I should say. There’s the brand that is self centered to the point of ignoring the rest of the world and even projecting yourself onto it as if to make up for not seeing enough of the world that on some level, your mind knows and feels it must compensate for.
The notion of modern professionalism, like any form of contemporary mysticism, is a severing of means and ends.
All divorces of means and ends, sever to make a loop and in this case, a vicious circle.
Be 'professional,' no matter what, at cost to all aspirations and personal desire. Or even the development of such possibility.
The echo chamber is really beginning to take hold.

"Its our differences that make us such a strong country."
The internet and related e-media guarantees U.S. decentralization to the same fate of the Soviet Union.

I think I may be beginning to oppose capitalism.
Not on a political level though, my objection is philisophical: that the profit motive isn’t a valid goal for human life.

My views are now post-political.
I realize now that the culprit of immorality and lack of progress never was one political system over another per se, but a philosophy unsuitable to man.

So I think I learned a lesson tonight in regards to ‘couch-surfing.’
This is not to mention my growing divergent view of subjectivity between human individual perception.
For all of you who don’t know what couch-surfing is, a full understanding can be found at www.couchsurfing.com.

Customer Service is the Alice In Wonderland of the economy.
You look down to see the ceiling, up to see the floor, right is left, left is right, left is sideways, and right is down.
It IS however a PERFECT example of where human communication goes WRONG, and goes wrong all the time.

I have been in a quandary over what selfishness means and as to its moral value. More than several years ago now, I converted into the thinking that there is no such thing as selflessness, since every act, is and must be an act for the self, since everything anyone does benefits themselves in some way.

The commonly regarded definition of an intellectual runs along the lines of not much beyond a vague notion of someone who thinks deeply about ideas and/or concentrates a certain amount of effort to learning an area of intellectual expertise.
I just found this insightful article by Noam Chomsky from 1967 at the beginning of the Vietnam War, on the responsibility of intellectuals. I will not synopsize this article, as it is available to read here:

It’s no wonder to me why the non-indigenous and non-white bred half of my friends sought money and stability while we, the white bred native born Americans, or even some black Americans I’ve known, sought something more intangible, and though this was often undefined, the concentration was on identity and a secular spirituality.
