Don't you think a variety of threads spices things up? There's already a bunch of threads discussing things but no show and tell threads so in reality I'm non conforming and doing something different.
Economic order is going to be changed. There is going to be central bank digital currency. All accounting and transactions are going to be on blockchain technology. We will shift away from using oil and gas and start to use sustainable forms of energy. There will be no privacy. There will be a world government. Every inch of land will be surveilled. There will be smart cities. The majority of people will become serfs again where the majority of people will not own any land.

Except that blockchain technology literally has no point if everything is done by a central bank.

Literally impossible.

It's going to be a showdown between central bank controlled/validated blockchains (wouldn't be surprised if Eth assumed this role) validated by proof of stake with inherent inflation vs Bitcoin's scarce and permissionless blockchain based on exhaustive proof of work and real world energy expenditure. The central banks obviously will hold both, but will likely try to use their influence of the former to acquire more of the latter.
Jeez how you can even read such large books, I would not be able to hold those, how large are your hands? Do you lift? Do you have lot of sex?
Nienasycenie is still the only thing I've read from him, but I'll certainly be reading more m8. Yes I love Gombrowicz, yes I lift and yes I do have copious amounts of disgustingly sweaty sex
The philosophy books you have aren't that great, besides Cicero, that's based.
I like the history books you have, the one about Chinese philosophy sounds cool and so does Kuhn's book about the scientific revolution. The occult philosophy books I know little about but with all those pages, I wonder what's in there.
I can't really fault you for still having hope. I, on the other hand, don't see a way out. My main concern is the racial issue. Re-reading Mein Kampf was a huge blackpill for me, especially after the rigged elections and knowing that we can't even vote our way out of this mess. The only solution would be a race war and I just don't see the pendulum swinging that far right, not with the brainwashed npcs here. Good on you, I'm just bitter.
I don't care about race. I care more about creating systems that reward good people and remove bad people. Race doesn't have any impact on someone's moral character.

That's the problem. Multicultural societies don't work. It inevitably leads to segregation, and those segregated groups will each vie for power and control. It doesn't matter what imaginary moral system you come up with. You cannot change in-group preference. Are you White? What do you think of israeli control in America?

My mind is evolved past in-group preference. I have dated multiple races and had many friends from different races. Other people need to evolve past that as well.

In-group preference is a measurable phenomena backed my science. And how long do you think evolution takes? How do you propose to forcibly evolve that trait in humans? You clearly only have a surface level understanding of the world and the problems therein. Instead of listening to what I'm saying, you're desperately clinging onto your beliefs because to challenge your beliefs would be to destroy your personality. I'm guessing that your resistance is because you're either non-white, mixed, or israeli. That's fine if you are. I don't hate you for it, but it leaves you incapable of facing the truth. So instead of getting to the root of the problem and destroying your current self (even though it's the truth), you delude yourself into thinking you're on the right path and that our current situation is somehow redeemable. You're not capable of having an honest dialogue. Good luck on your journey.

It is the individual's will to power that Nietzsche is concerned with. The collective monoculture of mankind destroys power through technical annihilation, in contrast to the divine power established by God.

I just finished big sur and was so very entertained. I found myself agreeing with Miller on his view of life. Sadly related to moricand as well. I scratch my palms till they crack and bleed, but I would never trouble a friend the way he did, how neurotic and selfish can someone be? I should get into astrology.
I made a thread about the book a few days ago. If you haven’t check out The Colossus Of Maroussi. I got Big Sur as a recommendation here and it shot up the list of my favorite books. I’m already rereading it a week later. Those two books I’ve mentioned I think all anons fed up with society should read. Henry Miller is the man. I’ve gotten so many good recommendations from him as well. Finding him was a turning point in my life
No, I'm reading it in french but the main problem is less free time because I'm preparing for my exams. Also lately I feel unable to stay focused on a book, my attention span is fricked
You're an autistic german, probably with protestant heritage, who thirsts for God but is so miseducated and cowed by your own subverted culture that you think seeking Him out is silly or for midwits. You let the likes of Fry or Hitchens do your thinking for you.

Exactly. You have bibles and the koran and a mandala workbook and morons like evola and jack donovan. If you believe in God, it's not the God of Abraham. It's some intellectualized theory of God, one you may have intuited from the clinically dead biblical lectures of Jordan Peterson.

I have to agree with
OP you have uncreased spines of books you think make you smart.
Maybe start reading to educate yourself instead of impressing people.
I don't fold the spine when I read books, what are you some kind of savage? None of the books I've read have creases in them.
only poors and plebs crease their spines, as they don’t respect the art stand. major cringe my man.
Right on the head

You are a worshipper of the technical society.
It is a progression from Nietzsche's will to power. Technology is an expression of humanities will to power.
Technology is a limiting factor on the individual's will to power.
>Technology is an expression of humanities will to power.
It is the individual's will to power that Nietzsche is concerned with. The collective monoculture of mankind destroys power through technical annihilation, in contrast to the divine power established by God.
> It is the individual's will to power that Nietzsche is concerned with.
There is no individual.
> The collective monoculture of mankind destroys power through technical annihilation, in contrast to the divine power established by God.
This is an anthropocentric viewpoint. I view it as evolving to a posthuman stage.
