Quem se conhece pouco ou muito superficialmente, por extrapolação lógica, também compreende menos a realidade ao seu redor. Então, como recurso intuitivo e muito impreciso de orientação, está mais propenso a apelar para as ideologias e, nesse processo, acabar sofrendo doutrinação ideológica ou lavagem cerebral...

A ilógica elementar do livre mercado/The elementary illogic of the free market
Maior a complexidade de um fenômeno, maior o risco de resultar em caos, entropia... E essa lógica também cabe perfeitamente à sociedade humana, em que, quanto mais complexa, maior a necessidade de um estado regulador. Portanto, não faz sentido defender por um estado mínimo... E se o verdadeiro problema não é o tamanho do estado e sim a sua qualidade.
The greater the complexity of a phenomenon, the greater the risk of it resulting in chaos, entropy... And this logic also fits perfectly into human society, in which the more complex it is, the greater the need for a regulatory state. Therefore, it makes no sense to defend a minimal state... And if the real problem is not the size of the state but its quality.

Qual é o seu Q.C? Ou o seu Q.R? Ou o seu Q.I.E?? E o Q.I.C do seu país??/What is your C.Q? Or your R.Q? Or your E.I.Q?? What about your country's C.I.Q.?

Ainda quanto aos níveis abstratos.../Still regarding abstract levels...
... Que eu comentei nesse texto: "Camadas de verdade//realidade ou níveis abstratos", os níveis mais altos de abstração, que são as ficções humanas, como o conceito de justiça, existem apenas como meios para fins específicos, diferente das não-ficções, que são fins ou realidades por si próprias.

"Você não pode criticar o capitalismo se você não trabalha ou se é economicamente dependente de alguém. Por isso que só eu, que sou um trabalhador, que posso falar sobre o capitalismo"
O anti branquismo do ativismo "anti racista" pode ser inteiramente resumido por uma (nova) falácia/The anti-whiteness of “anti-racist” activism can be entirely summed up by a (new) fallacy

Mais pensamentos de alfinetes/More Pin Thoughts
O fanatismo é uma identificação ou atração confundida com vocação
Fanaticism is an identification or attraction confused with vocation
Talent without vocation is a waste
True vocation is the existence of an attraction related to a talent
"The FAR right won"
They fear and regret those who proudly call themselves "RADICALS", "subversives"...
"I hate political polarization"
Many leftists say, from the most fanatical political-ideological groups, responsible for this same polarization...
However primary, superficial, insensitive and superstitious many conservative beliefs may be, typically including religious belief, they have nevertheless preserved a minimum of basic and practical knowledge, such as that there are only men and women (and adapted to the trans context. : that a man cannot become a woman) or that human races exist, as opposed to "progressive" beliefs
This means that part of what today has been demonized as "prejudices" of the "extreme right", is nothing more than a cultural inheritance of that minimum of basic and practical knowledge that was passed down from generation to generation.
It seems common to underestimate how serious a deficiency in rational capacity can be. Because a demonstration of their dangerousness, primarily to the individual who presents this deficit, is an inability to form a good understanding of the world, which tends to make them susceptible to adopting beliefs and attitudes that increase their personal insecurity, even if they are unconscious of it. , for example, of being or becoming favorable or indifferent to mass immigration policies to your country
Still, there are progressive beliefs that are basically complementary to conservative ones because they are also based on legitimate concerns, such as the concern about the massive destruction of the environment for profit, normalized and justified by many conservatives...
Typical atheist
"I only make fun of Christianity because only Christians who try to convert me to their religion, that is, who practice proselytism"
Because a typical atheist, a "progressive" ideologue, complains about Christian proselytizers, but forgets or is not at all aware that he has also become a proselytizer of his ideologies by defending that they be institutionally imposed, that is, planted or politically planted ideologies defended by "messianics" of international Zionism (long-term plan of political and structural domination of the Jewish "people" over the world, starting with the Western world, in full force especially after the second world war and detectable by the confluence of patterns such as the enormous disproportion of Jews in spaces of power in several Western countries and also in movements that aim to culturally and ethnically alter these same countries)
Common argument from a Brazilian atheist and self-declared progressive
"I especially criticize Christianity because it is the most important religion in our country. That's why I don't do the same with Islam and Judaism"
So why don't you just refrain from having an opinion about these groups based on this argument that they are not common around here? Because I know you tend to have more positive opinions about these 'religions' and their followers...
I'm not totally against trying to convert others to one's beliefs, especially if they are based on consideration, objectivity and impartiality, that is, on rationality. And also, if we all do this, in any way, even if indirectly or unconsciously...
"According to demographic forecasts, sub-Saharan Africa will have four BILLION people by the end of the 21st century"
Because depending on how you react to this phrase, it could indicate how truly ignorant or knowledgeable you are about the world, especially regarding the most basic knowledge, such as that related to human behavior...
More than a thinker, the true philosopher has to behave like a cartographer of reality, like a creator of maps of truths...
A typical leftist reading "Animal Farm" thinks he is one of the pigs and not the horse...
If a "trans woman" (a man) can compete with women in sporting competitions, then why can't white people declare themselves black or mixed race and compete for quota places in higher education, public examinations or employment in the private sector?
Huh, bourgeois “left”??
If offending was as serious a crime as beating, raping or killing, I should have already received a good amount from justice; We would all already have a criminal record and some or many "judges of postmodern morality" would be behind bars...
The greatest enemy of the arts is the cultural relativist
In a scenario of complete democracy, the right to free association would be one of the most important rights
Fanatics love to worship their "Goldsteins" or "maximum enemies", also because it is a way of channeling all perception of evil to the "other side" of the trench, while theythey themselves refrain from self-examination of conscience
It is common for a teacher to be an ordinary person who thinks of himself as an intellectual
It is common for a left-wing ''historian'' or ''professor'' of history to behave like a mere political propagandist.
Right-wing evil tends to be sincere, proud and natural. Left wing evil tends to be hypocritical, disguised and cynical
Maybe it would be better if we changed the name of the profession of journalist to "stick of power", if the majority of them behave exactly like that
The "non-scientist" academic is, at best, a bureaucrat and, at most, a pseudo-intellectual
Those who most "educate" or influence children are not the parents, but the streets or the environment and themselves. Very notable for intergenerational differences in behavior and cultural trends
The level of ignorance of many people remains at the same level of belief in superstitions and concomitant disregard for evidence
Instinct is knowing without learning. A direct inheritance
"No one is obliged to like or tolerate anyone...
But you are obliged to respect...."
Only when there is respect on both sides...
If Cuba is a full democracy, then why aren't there legitimate plebiscites that ratify the wishes of its population? For example, why can't the Cuban people decide on the possibility or freedom of traveling abroad?
There is a type of idiot who is similar to genius because he also does not care about other people's opinions, following his own intuition, depending only on his own judgment. And that's why he's an idiot and not a genius
The typical "nerd" is more of an idiot who thinks he is wiser than others, more of a false positive of rational intelligence
There are personality and intelligence traits that are so intense and natural, or so constant and indifferent to any environmental influence, that they seem to be more intrinsic than those that seem to be more susceptible to or derived from extrinsic influences.
There are many fanatical abortionists who would provide excellent abortions
Many become atheists aiming for reason, but hitting on nihilism and intellectual narcissism
Extraordinary claims without extraordinary evidence define the structure of any pseudoscience or pseudophilosophy
Privilege and victimhood can make a person believe anything
It is common for the "postmodern artist" to be that individual who is devoid of talent and who benefits from a good socioeconomic situation to invest in his delusion of grandeur.
In Brazil and other countries, while the left promotes intellectual dysgenics through the natalist encouragement of less intelligent groups, based on institutional hegemony and the imposition of brainwashing with good pseudosciences and moral fallacies, the right does the same only through religious fundamentalism . Both, enemies of the most ideal human evolution
One of the biggest fallacies about kindness, widely adopted by the left, and which is also a fallacy about justice, is that they are fully possible even without impartiality and objectivity or that they can be practiced in their purest state, as if this existed.
Uncritical or fanatical ideological adherence reflects an inability to differentiate false from true expertise or specific knowledge; a qualitative intellectual deficiency that seems common among teachers, journalists... A more "Fordist" type, very narrow in its cognitive capabilities, very specialized in a more restricted set of 'knowledge' and which may be a factor that contributes to this deficiency ; which was even mentioned in the book "Animal Revolution" ("two legs bad, four legs good").
Associated with this possible or probable cognitive deficiency is also an emotional immaturity that prevents the most ideologically fanatical from accepting when their beliefs do not correspond to the facts or are not considered.
And it would also be interesting to know whether this deficiency shares an idea of "my authorship", that it is the cognitive that influences the emotional and that, therefore, in this case, it would be a more self-centered perceptual tendency that would contribute to intellectual narcissism and, therefore, , for deficits in rational and emotional capacity (intrapersonal or self-knowledge)
This also means that one is relying intellectually and even morally on a more closed set of ideas, beliefs and/or thoughts that are not entirely based on analytical consideration, impartiality, objectivity, that is, on a truly rational approach.
For you to be able to persevere within a university, you either need to really like science and still be able to advance your genuinely scientific projects or be exceptionally compatible with the environment of extreme ideological conformity that predominates in this environment.
Some (or many?) of the greatest defenders of democracy implicitly conceptualize it as synonymous with anarchy or libertinism
If higher education really/prioritized quality in their evaluative and selective processes, within an academic context, that is, if they prioritized qualities essential to scientific work, such as a vocation and an ability to search for objective truth, it is quite possible that universities would be very different from what are today, since many of the academics who engage in pseudosciences, especially in "pseudosciences of good", ideologically biased to the left of the political spectrum and widely tolerated in these environments, would not have space or would already be rejected during the selection processes
O verdadeiro progressista fica sempre ao lado do grupo que realmente está sofrendo uma opressão /The true progressive always sides with the group that is actually suffering oppression.
Independente do que "direita" ou "esquerda" dizem...
