I'm starting a free online course over on Youtube. It''s about Plato's Myth of Er and how I believe it's a roadmap to a meaningful life!
I’m always amazed at people who see political partisanship as vice but religious ideology as virtue.
Scramble over the decaying walls of academia, science, and religion, take what you want, scurry back to your hides-hole, and cobble together a monstrous new ontology.

It's really funny how people get into "Gnostic Literature" & think it's about "invisible forces" & "egregores" when the entire point of Gnostic literature was analogizing the operations of the State with demonic forces-- ie: the "Archons" are just the literal "Archons" of the Roman Empire-- the "Hypostasis of the Archons" is a title of a famous Gnostic text, but if you translate it, it's just "The Ultimate Reality of the State"
