It's hilarious to watch this felon conspicuously cope for being level 3 literate. I'd explain what that is, but it requires turning over a page, so it's kind of unfair to the chuds.
Read books. It's cheap, it makes your life better, and the worst people in the world will have meltdowns because of it.
Woah, that firework really knocked you out for a while. Computers? Modernity? The occident? I don't know what you're talking about, bro. Let's get to the auditorium. Cao Cao has a new poem and I hear it's liiiit
Democracies need tigers. I have always believed this.
This causes minor discomfort for the parts of my identity that are organized around tolerance, forgiveness, and healing, but so what. That's a "me" problem.
Embodiment? You think medical embodiment is the refuge of a metaphysical ground of self? Your sense of embodiment is something you got out of a medical dictionary, or worse, the medieval equivalent of a medical dictionary that was translated by an isolated Buddhist monk trying to fix his meditation posture and then mis-translated and spiritualized by a late-colonial German and taken up by a bunch of hippies in the postwar period.

In The Republic, Plato is famously willing to rewrite the eikon mythos so that the status-seeking (thymotic) part of humanity will be in an organic, supportive relationship with the rational part of the sovereign (whether psyche or polis).
Later on, in the thrall of the Pythagoreans, Plato was also willing to dispense with ordinary language in favor of abstract number as a purer handmaiden to the eikon logos. As he wrote, "He who is without mathematics shall not enter."
