I left some fiction books off
First impression of Floresta is that it seems more promising than Knots but Knotzis won’t take is seriously because it’s written in Rust and Rust is woke
Many people on the internet are bad examples of how to engage in discourse with people you disagree with.
I have disagreements with pretty much all of my friends but they are still my friends and I try to understand their perspective. Different perspectives are a valuable source of entropy.
We need good examples. Many plebs lack good role models or examples. They attack people who are intellectually honest because of a scared tribal mindset. They appeal to authority figures and default to their opinions instead of accepting nuance. The look for confirmation of their opinions instead of questioning them.
As a result, a pleb is cannon fodder and is easily taken advantage of.
I don’t care to spend time with plebs or explain very basic concepts to them because it’s not productive.
I choose to spend time with pioneers who can understand and appreciate what I’m talking about, even if they disagree with me.
Choosing sides when neither represents you is the quintessential behavior of a pleb.
The world has nuance that pleb slop completely avoids.
Being able to differentiate quality information from pleb slob takes a lot of work that most people aren’t willing to put in.
#40HPW
GM Pioneers
Got a new song I’ll be releasing soon. Here’s the chorus:
“The storm clouds are rolling in and danger is near,
But the pioneer chooses to embark on the frontier,
Some want safety, but he won’t live in chains,
He’s burned the bridges, history will remember his name,”
One of insidious things about social media is watching absolutely retarded content drown out thoughtful and substantive content.
It wears down people who produce things of value. But the masses are retarded.
This is why I listen to 40HPW and read Atlas Shrugged twice a year.
@Scardust Official outlined this perfectly in their song, Game of Now
