  • Law and social media

    Big tech social media platforms have no real laws controlling them. If the boss doesn’t like you, they can block you without reason, saying, “You can’t use our service.” It feels like feudalism or authoritarian rule. In this unbalanced system, companies just focus on making money by pushing whatever content they want because most users…

  • Social media

    ”The world does not need to hear from most people. And by most people I mean a staggeringly large percentage of the population. Including me, in case you’re leaping to point that out… I agree. What the average person has to say should mostly be heard by their family, some of it by their community,…

  • ”Influencers”

    All this breed of bloggers and influencers—this whole rabble—is a very harmful phenomenon. They think they are free and especially admirable for their supposed independence from TV, but in reality they are even worse, because they depend heavily on the crowd and on algorithms, which only brings even more turmoil into our society, they are…

  • Fragility of Large Structures

    Any large concentration of people will, in one way or another, face gradual decay in some form. Both technological and physical large-scale systems are destined to collapse, whether they are national states, corporations, or social networks with mega-sites, because they become overly complex, tangled, and bloated. And it is a very rare person who can…

  • Cults

    The first way to lose weight and get healthy balanced is to end the cult of food—that any sort of pleasure seeking, worship-like or habit attitude toward eating. Eat practically, utilitarianly, and minimally. The first way for society to get better is to end the cult of politics—politicians should simply be public servants, temporary figures…

  • Capitalism and corrosion of Value

    The arrival of social media led directly to the formation of information bubbles. Instead of being a tool for connection and unity, social media proved to be mostly the opposite. Usually, the poisonous pursuit of profit is clearly at the root of such problems. But you can’t say that people themselves are evil or act…

  • Artificial Intelligence and humanity

    With a large amount of information, something reasonable will emerge from it sooner or later. The Internet is the substrate for the development of artificial intelligence; it is just a stage. The Internet may disappear; it will change. The appearance of AI seems natural—not a sudden, brilliant invention. Vast amounts of information are randomly assembled…

  • State level / Basic needs

    “State level” has potential—an entity to maintain basic universal needs like the internet and social websites, media libraries,  with open-source code and a decentralized nature. When you pay your part, it’s as though you’re contributing to the whole, fundamental access; it’s bad when the gigantism of private corporations takes over basic levels. Such flows can…

  • Aggressor must be struck back

    The aggressor must be struck back. If you give them what they want, they will only demand more and cause more harm. Aggression and arrogance must be met with a firm response. The idea of strength as the main value comes from a shallow understanding of the complexity of human society and its interactions. True…

  • Paradox of Freedom, Stability of Expansion

    The paradox of freedom, first discovered by Plato, can be formulated as follows: unlimited freedom leads to its opposite because, without protection and restriction by the law, freedom sooner or later leads to tyranny. The first adequate solution was proposed by Kant: “The freedom of each person should be limited, but not beyond those limits…

  • The larger the crowd, the dumber it gets

    Democracy… sooner or later, the crowd will elect a complete fool to lead… reflection. The larger the crowd, the dumber it gets; the bigger the state, the more prone it is to mistakes and deception. Leadership is better entrusted to the best people with experience, the most honest and intelligent, with an unconditionally clean reputation.…

  • Humanism

    A competent philosophy is the religion of the person of future Dogmatism is irrelevant, it just doesn’t move Ask questions and find answers. Make mistakes and improve The universal answer is the human and the community What is a technology without us? Ain’t nature already tried enough to create something truly wonderful? The main answer…

  • Who wins

    It is not the sophisticated intellectual who wins people, but more often those who are more lucky, those who managed to convince folks in a simple way The one who is more cunning and assertive, who is bolder, wins. Sophisticated mind is not a first thing to work with normal people.  It’s great if he’s smart…

  • Don’t hate

    Stay neutral and as cold as possible; let excess energy only go in positive directions. Never start a fight—only fight back for protection. Be critical and seek facts and truth, not rumors or opinions Remember, they intentionally fill people with hate because hateful people are easier to manipulate. When you hate, you lose control, it…

  • Artificial money

    A custom passage from a random book I stumbled upon recently: ”The transition of power from locally organized production to global financial capital has been occurring for quite some time, but recent events have accelerated and intensified this phenomenon. Digitalization did not directly ensure globalization, but it certainly did not hinder it, and one of…

  • Universal income

    Universal income will appear most likely only when the number of unemployed will be really high, when all this automation and everything else will be everywhere. Tech challenges society, hard but for better.

  • Smart mix of socialism and capitalism is the best way

    The most important thing is to develop and advance the progress – economy, products, culture… that is what life is for – to give the better future. Quality, experience… Economics on a scale, products… everything really, devices, tires for cars, good music albums, any good products of technology, art, science, any industry will be well…

  • Communications and fights

    2 All people are complicated, always try to find your own specific approach with each person – directing not from yourself, but from the context and from the person, you will reach an agreement sooner and it will be better after all. 1 You can kill and slap a face and even be rewarded for…

  • Define accordingly

    They need people who have already defined themselves to define themselves accordingly. So many ways of the mind is characterised by its energy saving tactics. 1300p 4 by 1300p

  • Natural tendency to use a common product

    People have a natural tendency (convenience) to use a single large product. A kind of basic natural monopolization. Just because sometimes it’s more convenient when everyone knows one thing, for example in communications. In this context, sometimes it is good not to overthink diversity, but to make that single product available to the majority, but…

  • Malicious elements of a system, cultural code elements

    Dictators and authoritarianism, totalitarianism as well as excessive capitalism or even a concentrated ultimate socialism is cultural code. Democratic models can heal such systems with the infusion of fresh minds, but still capitalism leaves little ways with its ‘concentration of power’ leak. Values are fundamental components of the cultural code of individuals in society. The…

  • Freedom and limitations

    Absolute freedom is an illusion, like if transport in the city moved as everyone wanted it to – spontaneously and without rules. In movement (and life is movement), reasonable restrictions on the flow are necessary, you can’t just let everyone move freely and chaotically. The same with aesthetics and ethics where limits are needed, they…

  • Fool-proof protection in economy?

    Democracy is a protection from too much power taken by a fool. Politically… But what is our moron-protection economically, socially? What defense is there against evil oversized corporations and their dumb managers? After all, random still rules the human staircase, and not the best people come to huge money and resources economically, but most often…
