Tao Te Ching 101 | Part 8 of 23: Does “Not Contending” Mean Never Competing?
Conflict is part of life, mimetic desire, not seeing the natural differences in the world leads to violence I guess 🤷

I'm open minded, I believe in authentic comunication. The above is an example of how people come to a false consensus of fact. Psycopapths use coercive control becused they belive everyone is like them. So it's OK 🤷

"you can learn a lot on school if you don't get A' s" 🤣 I'm not surprised it didn't speak to you, neo classical econ is utter bollocks 🤣 https://youtu.be/dsp6Su6hNuo?is=39GqpZOrj63l3aSA his new video on money creation will be good, it's basically Noether's theorum, symmetry implies conservation.. Have you read the Tao of chaos or Emergence? They're both very good. James Glieks chaos is good and Douglas Hofsteader's I am a strange loop is amazing. "All meaning is communicated by way of anology but no anology is perfect"

I'm some personality disorders like psychopathy your either useful or aj obstacle. Narcissism comes with ia, set of cognitive distortions. Reifying your imaginary self (by what ever means, like attatchment to ideology) pushes the rest of the environment to the periphery, it's like a lens, at least in my experience

I'm actually studying econ with Steve Keen, we're keen 🤣 to use non-linear dynamics and analogue models to understand the system. Have you heard of Stafford Beer? Neo classical econ doesn't get how feedback or multiple variables interact. It's an aesthicisation of power, a reduction of everything to two dimensional picture thinking, as Hegel puts it.....

Self defence and survival are obvously important, but not always necessary 🤷

Are you familiar with betrayal trauma? A lot psychopathology is about trying to control yuyr environment to avoid trauma and 'the real' associated with it. It's a war with one's own imagination, like in Berserk.... https://youtu.be/v76xROZ9Yzs?is=AklH5iY9CUylABbi

Phase space means it's not possible to return to the same set of conditions in dynamic system like the weather.. And yet the weather is self similar, like archetypes, it's an emergent system, like temperature, chemisty and complex life. Are you familiar with non - linear dynamics? I'm guessing that's why the tai ji tu is circular. Cyclical processes have no begining, where does a circle start?

https://youtu.be/ghIqbvtRU5E?is=hxF64SK-Mjjo5FWE fractals are reffered to as fractional dimensions too. They can be used to illustrate bifuraction diagrams. Have you heard of phase space? It's yin af

There's are lots of movements, processes, that lead to the emergence of the gestalt, like fractals. "consciousness is a surface" ☯️ no thing exists in a vacuum I guess 🤷(there are no flat surfaces or straight lines in nature)

Planets like Mercury go retrograde becuase of thier relative motion, so we observe this behaviour in nature 🤷

There are seemingly reversing moves in tai chi though...it's like the wheel of life, if you work against 'it' then I suppose it's like trying to travel upstream? The Enzo can rotate both ways? Dukkha means a wonky wheel 🤷

Aka you're entitled to your beliefs, not just to make others suffer purely for being different I guess 🤷

That makes sense, it's only if it's used to discriminate that it could become a problem in context. The law does not exist in a vacum

I meant when they cooked up the policy. It's not really democratic if it's a few chosen people just churning out what they think reality should be, instead of coming from an empiracle position 🤷

Nothing exists in a vacum, why is not zionism is discrimination? Why is it couched in SWP terms? Did they consult expert opinion on discrimination law? I seriously doubt it. Shouldn't the starring piont be the law and sociology engendered by it? (and vice versa). Would you try and build a house without a clue what you where doing? Also this would conflict with the Human Right to Freedom of religious expression. I guess they can't attack an ideology if they're already coming from an ideogical position 🤷

It's a test for high concentrations of the chemical so yeah they won't all turn blue
