Date: August 12th, 2026 12:59 PM Author: Metaphysical Animal Is this an intermediate phase of development wherein an individual attempts to obtain impossible mastery of the world through the intellect, and gets stuck because the whole enterprise is misguided?

They become self-identifying with computers (intellect detached from physical form) because they perceive it as a frame of reality in which they have a "comparative advantage" due to the gap between their capability for abstract thought and the desirability of their phenotype

Date: August 12th, 2026 1:49 PM Author: Metaphysical Animal Yes but as I stated on x dot Com there is an escape velocity where power, intellect and network outpace pure phenotype. It doesn't matter your normative stance on this fact. They are winning and evolutionary theory predicts this. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5892397&forum_id=2.#50063707) |

Date: August 12th, 2026 1:57 PM Author: our age of poasting is collapsing Yeah I agree and don't dispute that at all. Why do you think I antagonize technocapital and its adherents/apologists (computer-people) so much? Because they are such a serious and powerful existential threat to human beings
Just because one mode or form of existence is more evolutionarily competitive does not make it "morally" superior or even inevitable. This kind of thinking, which the above people always use to justify themselves, is a kind of retarded, self-cuckolding "might makes right" fallacy. I hold the human animal to be morally superior because I am a human animal and I like myself and the other humans who are like me. It's not any more complicated than that |

You’re from either a rich family (where either it doesn’t matter what you study, or you actually qualify to be a Man of Letters) or an unsophisticated poor family (that doesn’t know enough to push you to STEM). |

Date: August 12th, 2026 1:50 PM Author: The Dismal Tide its really the only thing that COLLEGE should exist for
ofc i include math and physics and such in the Liberal Arts
basically, if what you are learning is for future labor and pay, it has no place in COLLEGE. learn all of that as an apprentice
and like maybe 10,000 american men should be admitted to college (and not, pace xo, necessarily will they be the high standardized test scorers) |
