Theres no Difference Between Government and a Corporation


On government, the state and corporations. 

The terms 'Public' and 'Private' sector are images of the world that thought has created. So that thought can escape from sin and blame a despotic father figure, imagining it is now free and virtuous. Then thought proceeds to worship this image because the apparent results are so cosy. The harder thought worships the image, the deeper the image is buried deep and eventually rendered unconscious. To the point that its no longer possible to separate actuality, from the image. A sort of demon simulation, where followers are possessed by it.

By taking the whole of the world and dividing it into atomic parts of public and private sector, conflict is inevitably the result. Because both images are an inauthentic duality where the ideas of both sides must be full of hate for the other. They must be to attain and retain power over the competing image. But power never happens in the end, they are perpetually in conflict, harming and self harming. An economist would call this 'competition' in the Adam Smith sense.  Yet it is not the same meaning. Competition in the material worlds economic sense is fine. I am talking about the competition between images, ideas, doctrine, faiths...in the psychic sense.

So, can I take the whole of the world and unite it, as far as I can, with these images suspended? And if I could do that, even for a moment, what would I see?

I would see what is real. Because I'm no longer looking at images. I am looking at the actual thing - monopoly power. In this case I would see that government is just another corporation, with monopoly power and the biggest of all. Or that a corporation is just another form of government but with less monopoly power, a sort of loser. 

I'm not saying that is a good or a bad thing. I am just pointing at it. Either way the duality is reunited with actuality. And I can see that before thought has created these 2 images of public and private sector, it was just monopoly power. Or symbolically, a despotic father figure.

How would people generally behave, vote, interact, buy stuff, work, if they already knew this? Having seen through the simulation would people want to change how it works or would people be happy with it that way already?

COPA and Dr Craig Wright's Highly Principled Autistic Journey

If you are very bored and like reading High Court written judgements, follow this link .  https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/COPA-v-Wright-Judgment.pdf  Warning: It is not pretty and paints the defendant in a very poor light. I'm not convinced with the ruling, largely because it follows the collective narrative so perfectly and feel the judge may well be unconsciously supporting it being unaware of the shenanigans we all know have been happening.  To be fair to the judge Wright failed, deliberately or because he had no choice for some proximate reason, to show any convincing evidence. The judge knew this pre trial and was kindly giving Wright an opportunity during the trial to deliver.  Wright could well be a serial forger or the unluckiest man alive. My view is that due to an important new point of law on property rights, to do with linking identity to the crypto assets, meaning that crypto assets are identical in nature to any other property in law...

Executive Summary of the Modern World

...and the imaginary rumours we still create to remind us life is all about survival  We still possess primordial inherited instincts Which tell us about constant impending dangers Our ancient ancestors used them as a survival tool in an environment which was constantly dangerous And with the advent of social organisation these existential threats disappeared Yet we still possess the instinct, like it remains in our DNA. And as a substitute for real danger we create imaginary danger, to fill the gap. This survival instinct still drives us as a primary function. Because it gives our lives meaning. More meaning than religions, fame or fortune. Much more. The drive is unconscious so we cannot be aware of it's powerful driving force This means there is no scientific analysis, logic nor reason which can attend to it It's also a collective activity making it quite remote for individual action to identify and act upon So what is the result of this artificial separation of ancient inhe...

On Freedom, its Obligations and Society's Preference for Slavery

This piece is going to talk about my preference for slavery over freedom. And how and why I try to hide my preference from public view. The meaning of freedom and how self awareness fails to interact with it? I talk a lot about freedom lately and it's clear I do not understand the meaning of the term I spout so boldly. Curiously, I quickly lose my confidence when the meaning of freedom is brought under proper scrutiny. Yet I'm not self aware enough to confess to that observation of ignorance at depth. Why is it hard for me to observe my ignorance and selfishness, especially when I want to be seen by society as a good, honest, law abiding citizen? There must be a deep psychological reason which is forbidden knowledge for the politics, science and economics driving society and its so called freedoms. I cite society as being close to the root and a driving force because I constantly seek validation from it more than anything else. Even family. Freedom and obligation are mutually i...
