Total Sum of Reason

Typically yet misguidedly reiterated in art's various lyrical modes, the specie human emotes or feels while searching truth or meaning. However, to pursue ever elusive truths is to observe, read, study, listen, ponder, communicate, dialogue, compare, calculate, conclude, apply while diligently laboring thus bearing risk and responsibility, the total sum of reason, an arduously necessary process to be endlessly repeated over and over again until one's final sigh. Unfortunately, societies have become popularly educated in politically academic mediocrity, hence inclined to categorize as truth an emotion or feeling.

PROEM & POEM No. 130 - Incapable of Gray / Part 1

      Often I am told I see in black and white the world they argue is full of gray thus concluding as naive my constant perspective and consistent posture regarding the Singular Human Right to Consent or Not Consent on all matters. Politely of course I retort with a challenge; show me one person who would not bristle, recoil nor anger, resist when their expressed, implied even assumed dissent is disregarded then imposed upon by another regardless if relative, friend or stranger.

      No matter the argument, no one behaves privately as though the world is gray. Instead, throughout the day each and every person is constantly, continuously consenting versus dissenting per innumerable decisions, actions, activities, scenarios, arrangements, etc. with the full and rightful expectation to be respected thus unmolested.

      The world is seen as black and white per the specie human innately equipped with the Peculiar Human Ability to Reason and as such, incapable to think and behave by any other perception. The notion of gray, as well other poorly formed definitions of morality, are merely convenient arguments or constructs, always complex and inconsistent, for the sole purpose to covet thus presume the arrogant use of force by some means political, social or criminal.

No one behaves privately as though the world is "gray"

Often I am told I am naive, that I morally see in "black and white" the world they argue is full of "gray". I would politely retort, show me one person who would not bristle, recoil even anger, resist when their expressed, implied even assumed dissent is imposed upon by another regardless if relative, friend or stranger.

No matter the popular rhetoric, no one behaves privately as though the world is "gray". Instead throughout the day, each and every person is constantly, continuously consenting versus dissenting per innumerable decisions, actions, activities, scenarios, arrangements, etc. with the full and rightful expectation to be respected thus unintruded.

The world is seen as "black and white", for the specie human is innately equipped with the peculiar ability to reason, and as such, incapable to think and behave by any other perception. The notion of "gray", as well other definitions of morality, are merely convenient arguments or constructs, always complex and inconsistent, for the sole purpose to covet thus presume the use of force by some means political or criminal.

I regard BREXIT one of the noblest movements amid EU's fairly brief history

I regard BREXIT as logical, ethical as well (potentially more) sustainable thereby one of the noblest movements amid EU's fairly brief yet already economically declining history. As the economist Hans-Hermann Hoppe have recently commented regarding the EU and to paraphrase; instead there should be a thousand Liechtensteins. Whether it is a thousand Liechtensteins in Europe or a thousand Rhode / Prince Edward Islands in North America, I concur wherever and whenever such massive unions or countries of covetous, presumptuous force might "nonviolently" breakup.

The American model, democracy, a historical error.... Hans-Hermann Hoppe

"The American model – democracy – must be regarded as a historical error, economically as well as morally. Democracy promotes shortsightedness, capital waste, irresponsibility, and moral relativism. It leads to permanent compulsory income and wealth redistribution and legal uncertainty. It is counterproductive. It promotes demagoguery and egalitarianism. It is aggressive and potentially totalitarian internally, vis-à-vis its own population, as well as externally. In sum, it leads to a dramatic growth of state power, as manifested by the amount of parasitically – by means of taxation and expropriation – appropriated government income and wealth in relation to the amount of productively – through market exchange – acquired private income and wealth, and by the range and invasiveness of state legislation. Democracy is doomed to collapse, just as Soviet communism was doomed to collapse."

Hans-Hermann Hoppe

Quote taken from his 2001 book Democracy - The God That Failed. Hoppe is an economist, philosopher, professor emeritus at UNLV, senior fellow at Ludwig von Mises Institute, and founder/president of Property and Freedom Society.

Conspiracy; equated to that of unicorns and leprechauns?

The government and its media cronies have successfully equated "conspiracy" to that of unicorns and leprechauns, so much so, merely mentioning the word elicits ridicule and slander upon the targeted "loons" by the well behaved masses. Conspiracy is merely a process of conspiring, that is to say, secretly discussing then organizing of one or more actions towards predetermined objectives, while others uninvolved remain intentionally unaware. There are departments, agencies and bureaus whose intentions, functions and operations are mostly if not entirely done in secret. Yet conspiracy thus corruption, theft, fraud, extortion even murder are preposterous? So conditioned by propaganda (i.e. public education and mainstream news), the people stand ready to recklessly toss aside leaks and evidences in favor of prepared narratives by government as well by the exposed department, agency or bureau.

We don't have the truth for we don't want it. We adolescently prefer unburdening ourselves of the responsibility truth otherwise insists, even unashamedly preferring the lies upon coveting the benefits perceived while always elusive.

PROEM & POEM No. 128 - Politics versus Ethics / 3rd Reprise

      If understanding politics as nothing more than the bickering and squabbling, the slandering and defaming, even the conspiring and indicting among politicians and parties over various forms of political force or legal violence thus the coveting and pursuing to control, use as well abuse such force and violence, then the rhetoric for this or that issue can be clearly seen as merely strategic, lacking of course sincerity, integrity therefore morality.

      Perhaps anyone seeking a political office should be disregarded as untrustworthy. By what ethical principle or moral foundation can justify the pursuit and desire for the support of those consenting so to exact force upon those dissenting, to demand the person’s possession and disregard the person’s preference therefore disrespect the person, to confiscate property, eliminate liberty and terminate humanity, to rob, bind and kill the individual per the vote presumptuous upon the will covetous.

Socialization, politicization hence rationalization

Opprobrious to person preference and possession

Injurious to the only Ism ethical thus nonpolitical

For all other isms (save one) covetously political
