I can see that you recognize the absurdity of the day.
I appreciate you laying it all out. It's romantic.
and you're invoking something higher than left and higher than right, so as to rise above that absurdity and spot some Deseret in the distance where we might all be free. It's worth considering!
Permit me, as a companion on this road, to reflect---
For nobody to believe in any higher power.
For what it's worth
the idea that you're part of something bigger is helpful, spiritually speaking
The idea that you're accountable to something other than yourself
that there is some ideal other than your belly and your pleasure
a lot of the world needs that
I was just listening to a James Comey interview in which he was talking about ethical leadership. He pointed out that if you look at history, the most ethical leaders have some standard, some ideal outside of themselves which keeps them honest. The worst leaders sees themselves as the highest ideal, it's all about the boss.
This goes back to the days of kings - for all the evil that the church did in medieval times, (and there was a LOT of it) one positive takeaway is that they bound the monarch to an ideal. They presented the idea of an ideal and goodly monarch, and while no king in history measured up to that ideal, it probably kept a lot of them from becoming complete fuck cannons.
For the old traditional and abrahamic values to disappear without anything taking their place.
God, what a nihilistic mess that would be
You throw out the good and the bad, and then how will people behave?
when left to their own devices, people naturally prefer to serve the lower god:
the ego, the belly
the primate urges
the lizard urges
the worm urges
For the end of sexual norms once and for all. For all cultural norms in the entire world to be eliminated and replaced with nothing.
in this new world, nobody will judge you for being a brony
or a rapist
For all distinctions between races, cultures, and ethnicities to be cast down and forgotten. For all gender expression to be eliminated due to all gender specificity of anything (clothing, bathrooms, sports teams, etc.) being eliminated. For the institution of marriage to be eliminated. For all cultures and peoples of the world to be merged into a single superculture.
you don't want norms
but you want to eliminate differences
you want individuality
but don't like how a lot of people have chosen to individuate
you don't want diveristy or difference
you prefer to imagine a harmonious monoculture
I think your vision is in self conflict.
You can't have a unifying culture with no norms. What is there to unify around?
You can't have maximum individuality while eliminating individual racial, sexuality, culture.
(culture, by the way, usually grows from the bottom up... somebody starts using slang, the people around them adopt it, fast forward, you've got a new language... people naturally separate and individuate, culture is a fractal and when you lean in real close, there is always a rough edge containing infinite complexity and diversity)
It reminds me of the libertarians that want freedom from government authority
and therefore support corporate tyranny
the bathwater and the baby fly into the wild blue yonder
