Fuck A.J. Julius
Understanding the aesthetics of oligarchy can help us to see where their power comes from and maybe even do something about it....

Fuck Hasdai Crescas (c. 1340 – 1410)
"For they have made piñatas of themselves, shall they complain when we beat them with sticks?"
From the Book of Reason, 2025
"Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response." #stoicism #life #philosophy
"There's so much beauty in a smile... It's like a warm ray of sunshine passing through the window, the first flower that blooms on Spring, that cup of cocoa occasionally sipped during those long Winter afternoons... A smile; how much of a blissful experience it is to witness someone smiling brightly!"
Fuck Pierre Daniel Huet (1630–1721)
Discussed this excellent, informative video in class yesterday. It's for thinkers.

It is easier to find men who will volunteer to die, than to find those who are willing to endure pain with patience. #stoicism #life #philosophy

Fuck bell hooks (1952–2021)
What is the characteristic wrong of testimonial injustice?
Richard Pettigrew, 2025
"When someone is in a position of power over you, you often need them to have accurate beliefs that only your testimony can reliably supply"

Continued thread
so that it is no longer a question of making "people express themselves,but rather to provide small vacuoles of solitude and silence in which they might eventually find something to say." To conjure the gentleness and the right to have nothing to say is perhaps the condition "so that one might form the rare, or even rarer, thing that might be worth saying"! #philosophy #politics 2/n
There is a point at which the work of Debord (as Hegelian Marxist) and Deleuze (as spinozist marxist ) meets. Deleuze rightly said that we are not left alone enough. Deleuze never tired of writing that we suffer from an excess of communication, that we are "riddled with pointless talk, insane quantities of words and images," #philosophy #politics 1/n

Why to people do it? That is, set up a stalkiing horse in order to break it down. That is absolutely no 'proof' of anything except your narcisstic tendancy to virtue signal. Please stop it. Think twice, post rarely.
