As in a society where there are few intelligent hardworking people and many lazy fools, so in the world as a whole, for example, even in countries – there are few good, free and efficient systems, but a lot of poisonous tyranny and lawlessness, degradation, foulness. [Not only today’s crap evil circle of Russia, China, Iran, but also almost 80% of world: most of Arab and African, most of South American and Asian countries, actually the real democracy is not something easy and “natural”, it’s an expensive and a golden balance thing, even today’s few free countries tend to degradation at some level like the USA of today or that sleepy over-comfortable weak Europe).
With software, games, music, food, everywhere and everything of people’s being… Is it true that there is a law that 80 percent of everything is crap, and only 20 or even less is good?
Sometimes I’m under an impression that it’s temporary, that we’ll all become smart and noble or that progress will happen everywhere someday… But what if it’s just an illusion of the mind’s’ “self-positivity heal”, and always and everywhere, all through life, all centuries, 20 will pull 80?
A little dialectical method for clarification. Let’s look aside, for example, at the structural distribution of the general whole species diversity, say, insects – can we say that 80 percent of insects are bad? No. In nature, due to various circumstances, some species die off, but since the system of life as a whole is decentralized and balanced cleverly, every species did not come from nowhere. But the other issue is that it took a lot of time and testing-fitting for each kind. Vast time-space amounts comes to balance such systems, we barely feel that short terms’ 80/20 filtrating.
Is 80/20 applicable to human only, and in the stages of becoming? After all, the human is a stage of becoming, it is not something ready-made, it is a bridge.
Man is a bridge to the superhuman of the future, to robots and super-computer-machines, ultra-matter cyborgs… we are just like microbes from the distant past, preparing the environment for future super beings.
80/20 is relevant to short range outcomes of highly complex and complicated systems – fast and sharp at the breaking point. The high complexity and intricacy of our current system of all things “human”, are two consequential effects – rapid, chaotic progress, and a large amount of influx of bad stuff cut off in the process.

Cognition and experience
Comments: Cognition and experienceThey say that the purest knowledge is empirical, that is, based on direct experience. But experience can be deceitful, e.g. optical illusions or logical experiments of dual interpretation. After all, understanding is the primary of the mind and of it’s director: the reason.
A simple experiment: imagine the smartest man, the best mind system in the universe. That man needs to live and cogitate a little and then he’ll understand it all, a whole system will form in his head. It will be reflected, organized, prepared, and then be visible. But still the man needs at least a minimum of time to gain an experience of the actual and the reality in which the mind finds itself in order to reflect and formulate the cognition.
Reason and the power of intellect, packed in a well organized mind are the key crucial forms of knowledge. Logic, mathematics… But experience is still the highest, most important, practical way. Actually, cognition is a competent qualitative connection, refinement and reforming an experience into human knowledge. -
Culture, information, entertainment, style
Comments: Culture, information, entertainment, styleDon’t underestimate highest importance of culture and entertainment, as it is said – “bread and circuses”, 50/50, but actually it’s about 30/70 bread/circuses. Not for nothing even monkeys have a lot of leisure – in the world and in nature in general it is not common to work yourself to zero, leisure is immanent and necessary to every creature.
Man is defined by the information he surrounds himself with and the information that surrounds him.
Professional sports – they create information food, we can’t see it but it is a tangible reality – pieces of information in space. People literally eat information… It’s true that there are different kinds of information diets.
Why do movie celebrities get huge sums of money and ordinary actors get small sums of money? In the essence they might be similar… The answer is simple – recognizability, to attract attention to information. In information flows people cling to familiar faces, familiar objects, as if orienting themselves in space, as a kind of guarantor of certainty, not to lose time. But, sometimes even familiar objects get bored, reduce their reputation, quality, style.
Style is the deepest basis of any essence. If there is a best – it is very stylish. The best is all on style. Style is not just the decoration, the design of an entity, its the conceptual core… not for nothing deep in the very rudiments of its history mankind has already decorated and created information.
The best style and the highest wisdom is simplicity, clarity. Not the simplicity of the primitive, unimaginative, undeveloped, or the simplicity of a fool; but a profound simplicity, when the whole essence has been understood and all the stages have been passed through. The best filtered through. -

Values determine motion
Comments: Values determine motionA man’s set of values determine his motif morality and motivational attitude, motion.
For example, why do some people today serve foolish mole dictators worthy only of scorn? They are philosophically lost, do not understand values above primitive ones – they only want to fill their bellies, supposedly financially secure, not to take risks, to warm themselves in a pseudo-stability – they do not see values above and do not feel them – both those who directly execute criminal orders and those who just passively acquiesce to all this – they do not understand freedom and perspective development of the whole.
This is what drives repressive officers, internet bots, passive silent people, schizophrenic lawmakers – distorted values and moral vagueness within these people. Oversized bureaucratic systems are particularly vulnerable to the lack of values because, besides their mostly senseless over-complexity and fragility, they do not bring any values.

Silence is golden
Comments: Silence is goldenThe brain is not perfect – it is only “one of the early versions” of the mother nature’s self-empowered calculation-reflection machines.
Huge, gigantic time segments of the cosmos, on which quantitative and qualitative changes take place, are extremely distant to us in terms of sensations.
The reason is not perfect either – though when it wants to be, it is close to it. The reason can feel the god – but not those bootleg religious forms of mythology – rather simply the Highest.
God is an entity not cognizable in the usual sense of the word – especially within the framework of still quite primitive homosapiens… the very word and concept of god as we used to know it is already a skewed, vulgarized idea…
You can’t see some things anyway, like what is beyond the blackness of the universe – no way…
You can feel, you can suggest, but feelings are tricky.All religion is just dogmatic fairy tales and propagandistic beliefs – Hollywood and images, self-deception, it’s all about average minds and below. A sense of the higher but corruptly reinterpreted into the lower.
And even though the reason can sense the higher, it is still stuck on the guts and blood of our everyday life.
We’re just a transitional stage to the perfect machines of the future.
But still we’ve something, the essence is to pass this stage, to make it beautiful, clear, not to fall apart and not to shit ourselves, not to destroy our home… Man’s mission and his essence is in his work, in the aspiration to the highest.
Live and die peacefully, at any moment, and let it be.

Degrees of freedom
Comments: Degrees of freedomFreedom is a necessity for society, and in any case it will come to this because the best, intelligent people will not be intimidated anyway, they will still act in their own way, within the categorical imperative of the mind in the pursuit of the highest quality and development of life… and who drives progress but them – any unfree regime is doomed to slow decay, in fact.
However, it is important to realize that freedom is a concept close to legal law and balancing, it is not an absolute category. All freedom is good in the context of the virtue, sanity. It is nice when in a structure there are more noble, smart and honest than ignorant and dirty, equality and freedom, such an intelligent environment will be higher. But if the society is barbaric and broken, restrictions are inevitable. Basically, as with man… if a person is well-balanced, controlled to the highest degree – can afford a wider range of actions… A sick, angry, addictive persons need support and restrictions until they become stronger.Yet despite all the little things and details, mother nature has something beyond our understanding – great mechanisms and principles of self-balancing systems – in general it’s simple – everything bad naturally falls off and dies – but it takes time …

Society as a whole
Comments: Society as a wholeSociety is a whole entity, like a tree or a living organism… blind Darwinism applied to such a structure is blatant ignorance.
Man is a variable being.
Fortune and chance, unpredictability and randomness play too big a role.
People who are pompous, egotistical, arrogant, superior, biting others, deceiving their own brothers, swaggering and lavish – do not understand much.
Don’t be like that. Always respect others, be delicate and sensitive, silent and careful. Don’t be loud, don’t be pompous (if aren’t an artists or a clown), don’t show off. Be easy on people and yourself… Never attack first. Remember randomness and complexity. We are all in this together, we are all under the same sky.

Comments: untitled post 3908
The highest value on Earth is human life—it is indeed the most complex, beautiful, and valuable of all things. The stage of bloodshed should be obsolete in some era. However, the battle of minds will persist. Those who still engage in physical warfare today, especially those who initiate it, are hopeless.

Aesthetic nature of destruction and order
Comments: Aesthetic nature of destruction and orderIs the idea of destruction attractive? Yes, just like order… all this seems to be a part or a general composite model of something general and whole. What happens when we feel, express “attractive” – the inner self reflects the outer and is energized, the cognition forms itself then
Reception of destruction, of order… sometimes we have to destroy and it is good, but sometimes we have to put order and it is also good, both beginnings in their nature are not bad and are mutually essential as black and white, as absence and presence, as yes and no. Context and quality are the keys there.
Aesthetically, if done intelligently and qualitatively, both ideas bring pleasure – that is, they sensually stimulate positively (both cold and heat aesthetically give a positive charge) and impart some value to the mind. -
Creation, contemplation, consumerism, possession
Comments: Creation, contemplation, consumerism, possession
True happiness is not about having things, but about making/giving them; when you giving, you kind of already got some…
Wanting to have a lot usually comes from feeling like you’re missing out on something. Being overly focused on having things will make you bitter.
Creation surpasses possession because it, to a certain extent, encompasses everything – including possession – as a result. Absolute truth, the categorical imperative of reason – to create.
Contemplatiton is good and the right path, but it’s only a tool for a higher purpose. Concentrated consumerism? No, be accurate there…
Having things can be useful too, but it’s usually more vulnerable & corrupt especially for weak minds than creating, although contemplation can mess up some people too. Messing up while creating can happen too, but it’s not as bad as other things.
However, when analyzing people and their behavior, it is important not to forget that a person is a very changeable entity – today they are one way, tomorrow another. It is important to keep this in mind… but if today it’s 80 percent, tomorrow it’s only 20 or even less, nobody can guarantee you the tomorrow, and it’s not guaranteed that they will come at all – I mean, if you encounter toxic people, for example, excessive consumers, it’s better to immediately work on the cleanliness of your environment and not allow such individuals into your life… maybe they are normal, just temporarily sick, but we better think about today rather than tomorrow, because a person is a changeable, somewhat unpredictable creature.
I look deeper and ponder… our world was in some way created, prepared, formula or algorithm, whatever – but the concept of creation is also inherent in us. But what’s true making, and what’s just rearranging what already exists? In any case, creation requires some initial material… there is a complexity and multiplicity of the world – as with life, where before transitioning to a qualitative-quantitative transition – the appearance of a human, or even multicellular organisms, there was a long process of creating preparatory material – effectively translating energy oxygen, for example. When you create, you try, you find…
So, true happiness it’s where there’s truth and a clear, perspective and reasonable path, a way to make life better, a path to the prosperity of whole life as it is. Obviously, the best thing is creation, that is, to create. But just don’t clutter…. before publishing, preparation is needed, honesty – multiplying noise is an ignoble affair. -
The phenomenon of a sharp quantitative-qualitative transition
Comments: The phenomenon of a sharp quantitative-qualitative transitionThe phenomenon of sharp quantitative-qualitative transition is what I favor.
The transition of the Higgs boson into electromagnetism, sudden crystallization, the critical points in economics, revolutions…
It gives birth to the new. Pure experimenting – what does it bring?
The very transition of the start of the universe… Or when you are born, when you die.
Sure such transitions, however, are always preceded by an accumulation. -
Outer and inner
Comments: Outer and innerIt is very important in this world to be able to draw a clear line between one’s inner self and the outer world.
Do not allow the random external and every passing to insult the inner integrity and peace.
The outer world – it’s just the outer world… every experience in its essence is somehow subjective, has its own tastes and peculiarities, personal colors, but people forget that the world is primarily just a mutated reflection of oneself from the superficial reality.
The inner world is like your house or apartment – there should be order, strong walls against rain, and you can change it, work with it. You go out into the outer world, but it is not your place to stay there permanently. So don’t take anything external that appeared necessarily as fact-reality-as-it-is, it is quite likely might be that it was a triple-multi reflections or echoes of the internal. -
Preciseness enhances truth and freedom.
Comments: Preciseness enhances truth and freedom.Freedom is beneficial, but it is also an abstract concept that requires clarification.
In society, between us: equal rights, not absolute freedom… Discuss actual liberties and agreements, general universal usefulness. Don’t just talk about abstract independence. Preciseness enhances truth and freedom.

Emotional charging
Comments: Emotional chargingYou have to keep thinking of ways to make life better.
Collect pluses… And information, real data, not speculative manipulations. Instead of collecting the negativity and drowning in the minus.
Emotional charges.
Discuss bad things less, for example. It’s about the tone and filtering. Still need to see the dirt and clean it sometimes… But in a positive posture – change and activity against bad things. There is nothing really wrong between us except the arrogance of ignorance. You’re gonna die anyway.
A gloomy, dark style is good, but as a coolness – in moderation. -

The nature of the mind to distribute information in its own way
Comments: The nature of the mind to distribute information in its own wayVery often, when the mind is strongly fixated or obsessing on something, if you look from the outside – it is important for the mind to latch on to the reflection of the phenomenon, not so much on reality as to arrange the entities inside itself in a certain order.
Apparently here the mind and its closest sub-networks have to choose in any case, and it will obviously choose an ordered and beneficial fixation (e.g., tranquility) rather than the truth. However, advanced strong minds can still train themselves to accept reality as it is, for example, to find benefit in pain and development – stoicism is the good way in this aspect – do not fear death, do not fear mistakes, accept everything as it is…. – I live this way and it is really useful – more useful than the illusory sub-comfort of the internal data re-arrangement.
And nevertheless, in life trivialities, this specific feature of the mind – to shift and distribute information based solely on one’s own subconscious directives – will still manifest itself. It is well known to science how our brain likes to invent explanations even for things we do not understand – the passion for order and any systematization is in its blood.
That is, on even an imaginary fixation of something in the head, just to strengthen some structure in the head and to bring order. Reality remains kind of on the sidelines… Although it continues to play the role of the main motivator, causality. -
The hidden details we perceive
Comments: The hidden details we perceiveAll objects after cognition have codes embedded in them.
For example, let’s have an idea of future or current augmented reality glasses that would show the calories of each piece of food in your hand.
But we’ve already skilled to do something like that, when you hold a piece of pizza in your hand, for example, you already see how many calories are in it – about 300 – and many other properties of that object… yes, you don’t see the designed numbers near the object or other fancy stuff – but you feel the data.
And so with every object with a table or a box – we read their properties from an invisible field. The field of our mind: reasoned and experienced. -

L-inversion
Comments: L-inversionLife is like a racing game – you are constantly not only supposed to accelerate but also to brake.
One might say, for a dialectical comparison… a dictator of some sort or a billionaire or a pop star, always racing high without stops and seemingly fine.
But actually no, he’s not fine – it’s an illusion. Living in fear, constantly pressured by surroundings and money, all the wealth to be vanish, such things tend to end up badly, thinking and stresding about death constantly when you got such much to loose.
A true wise master would barely became a billionaire nor a usurper of authority… rushing to crash is not wisdom or the highest class, it’s a disease – the inversion of fortune. -
“This is not some kinda of special force but a mexican drug cartel”
Comments: “This is not some kinda of special force but a mexican drug cartel”To avoid things like this, legalize all narcotics (but do not sell them in supermarkets around people, rather in far away suburbs or in pharmacies) so that the mafia does not have such a stable and solid stream of money.
