Yesterday was the 100th anniversary of the CCP. There is little doubt that they have a very different view of an ethical society. It is not liberal. It is not insular. They do not want China to be just a significant player in the global future but the dominant force. In other words, they want the philosophy of the Enlightenment to be eradicated. And the West does not seem to be willing to push back on it.
I do believe in ideological diversity, which is why I couldn't be more against a 'One World Government'. People should have the freedom to live under a body of laws, programs and policies radically different from the rest of the world. And, we should celebrate that. This is not properly a 'Liberal Democracy' hegemony or a 'Centrally Planned' hegemony. No hegemony.
In my next book, 'Completing the Enlightenment' I will assert the principle, 'No person should be required to live under a body of laws, programs and policies that they consider to be fundamentally unjust'. The implications are huge. But, first, I must articulate what I mean by the Polymathic subculture. Of course, every member of Polymathica should contribute to its formulation, so, 'The Polymathica Subculture' is a starting point, not an end point.
Hi all, I live in Canada. And the article " The Inappropriately Excluded " is really something that deeply resonates with me, and has helped make sense of my life. That I've been going back to it for years as a reference. But today found out there is this meetup group. Excellent stuff!
So I'm wondering what are people's interests here?
I like transition planning, and how we'll get through the end of oil,
archival of important documents, talking to international advisors and politicians about it. Also run several businesses. And do a lot of religious stuff,
cause that's best way of connecting with the uh IQ challenged majority in terms they can understand. So for that I run anabaptist.ca and got like outreach for all sorts of faiths, like humanism, islam, communists, chinese, hindus, christians etc: https://anabaptist.ca/dyet/
Hi! Just joined. I discovered this group through the Inappropriatelt Excluded article and it hit home. Looks very interesting :)
After Dobbs v Jackson, people are saying they want to move to Canada? Why? There is no part of Canada that allows abortion after 23 weeks. And, of course, nowhere in Europe are abortions legal after 24 weeks. So, if one really feels that access abortion is so important, the best thing to do is move to California. It has the most Progressive abortion laws pretty much anywhere, save China, North Korea, and Vietnam. Honestly, if this is your thing, then you should move to California. Whatever state you are in, they will celebrate your departure.
