More Postmodernism Examination

Objections to Capitalism are vast. Today, aspects of critical

analysis are significantly less sophisticated and not nearly as

nuanced as they once were. We, as a species, have come to a point in history

in which we are starting to see the undeniable interconnectivity of

many aspects

of certain realms that were once each seen as disconnected.

Today, not only can

an individual see the content of information itself as

being connected but

also ideas and realms as being indirectly connected. On the

surface, there seems to be no direct link between the future of mankind and physics

or the linguistics of the English language and

mathematics, political

science, and computer science. Today, there are many lines

that can be

drawn that connect the social sciences with the hard

sciences. It’s not

Capitalism that has played a fair share in the devolved

societies but the

ever increasing size of the importance for money. The attitudes

of free markets, libertarianism, Marxism, fascism has changed

due to misunderstandings of the “isms”. For instance

oftentimes, there are many more details and history

involved with the term “anarchy” than a lot of individuals know

about or discuss. The gist is that there are underlying mechanism

that allows physics to connect to psychoanalysis and psychoanalysis

to cultural anthropology. The link is an intimate and careful analysis

through philosophical rigour.      

The significance of substantial philosophically rigorous

information led to many modern geopolitical as well as

sociocultural crises that the world currently faces. For multiple

decades

the human race has been facing a looming attitude

which tends to

dismiss

rigorous academic fields. This attitude has allowed

for ‘pseudo’ intellectualism

to be a substitute for much deeper ideas and concepts.

Through the span of

decades, books have been published on history, psychology, physics, and

mathematics. As more information has become more

popular and

individuals have had a desire for books on

self-help, the books

were read by students and amateur scholars, alike. The

internet has

allowed for videos to be recorded and blogs to be

written. As there

are no filters, information became unintentionally

distorted due to

misunderstandings and biases. We are in a

highly unfortunate

situation in which university textbooks are very expensive

and profit has

reigned over truth. All of the above has made for a toxic

mixture for real

academics for the past half a century. Today, there are various

levels in which individuals can engage in conversations.

Alas, as culture has been going through a devolution of ideas, with

it class and educational quality has diminished profoundly. For

instance, Albert Camus won a Nobel Prize in Literature for his work

as an author. Today, history textbooks in serious academic

institutions write about influential figures such as Sartre, Camus, and

Nietzsche as writers, but they are also remembered today as great

philosophers. Charles Lutwidge Dodgson is known as his pen name, Lewis

Carroll. Carroll wrote Through the Looking Glass. Through the Looking

Glass was an innovative work of fiction and is remembered

as such, however Dodgson was a respectable

academic of his time at Oxford. Today, political inaccuracies

are rampant and some individuals pride themselves as being

impure academics. There is simply too

much misinformation that some individuals characterize as a

positive aspect. When Einstein had his quarrel with

Bohr, Schrodinger and co. many individuals did not put their

‘ten cents’ in. In the past few decades other experts

have had famous differences in their own domain. For example Leonard

Susskind challenged the idea proposed by the late Stephen

Hawking about the fate of information in black holes. Today, unfortunately, there

are those who claim to have proof about tautologies and

ontological proofs

that have resulted from ill-interpreted understandings that have

allowed for

beliefs about the nature of time, reality, the speed

of light, etc.

Beliefs can also often come from biases about foundational matters

such as causation.             

In the case of consciousness, the more relevant (and useful) information

in the universe run on the front of the simulation of the computer of

reality. Everything which reality runs on (the hardware) is the physics

and maths, they are the unconscious. Without the physics, no

psychology, history or sociology could be

possible. The social sciences

run in the front of the computer of reality. Physics and

mathematics are the foundations for the universe to

run on. A psychological

phenomenon such as the pleasure principle is not

intimately linked to

physics but indirectly chained to academic psychology. At the end of

the day if we monetize everything we are (at the end of

the day) hurt the entire human species (e.g. our kids, grandchildren, etc.).

With more serious politicians, the politicians would

care about being

held accountable to the people and individuals

would be better

informed. Individuals who are able to critically

think would not

willingly buy (ideological and physical) garbage from super

corporations, "Reagan

economics" would be a dead idea, corporations would

not be so powerful

and influential. Capable individuals (a very few) would be able to

investigate fundamental dilemmas that shall have major impact for the

future of energy, technologies, conservation of water, space exploration,

the origins of life, and quality of life all without expecting to be paid

extremely large sums of money. Excessive amounts of money is

detrimental to free will (if it exists). I am curious if anyone

can put a price

on deep existential matters and the pursuit of meaning

and purpose? I also want to note that a PhD (even from a

prestigious university) does not reserve one's

right to be correct and have the correct interpretion.
