Age of Selfishness

BiO Spiritualism - Body, Mind and Spirit: Man’s Means, Nature’s Ends.

Body: The Industrial Revolution—a lever for man’s muscles. (1740 to 1970)
Mind: The Information Age – a lever for man’s mind. (1970 to 2023)
Spirit: The Age of Selfishness – a lever for man’s spirit. (2023 to infinity)

How many foreign aid payments has Musk uncovered that go towards teaching poorer nations how to be Capitalistic?

How to promote Capitalism so that they can become Capitalists and fish for themselves.

I mean, teaching them HOW TO fish is such an old old old truth that it should be a no-brainer.

Is it?

I realize that my cynical self is speaking here—that is, I am pro Capitalism but feel that no one—not even alleged Republican “Capitalists” are doing a good enough job promoting Capitalism. (Professional Objectivists you are excluded for the moment because the size of your group just isn’t big enough—yet—to make the difference. Remember, one of your own said, we’re going full Dictatorship within 37 more years—that is, within 30 years after 2032 by which time we will succumb to a Weimarkian style hyper-inflation.)

For example, here in the United States they—the authentic capitalists--could be answering fundamental questions so as to explain to us peons (peons are taxpayers too) what the hell is going on. For example: How come the one percenters in America have all the wealth and the 99 percenters all the debt?

Sounds fishy to me.

I could be wrong. If we secretly are doing this—teaching poorer nations how to capitalism--then Musk should find some evidence for it.

I repeat, any evidence found yet Mr. Musk?

Since DEI is euphemism for Marxism—or perhaps more “inclusive”: Collectivism—and there are tons of DEI initiatives all over the world and especially in the US of A, how does any American promote using American Taxpayer’s Money to promote Marxist-Collectivism?

Those who do we have to call, The Status Quo Defenders.

TSQD for short.

We have to do this because the status quo has brought us to this brink.

Based on the political ideology of our two main political parties, Democrats and Republicans with Republicans “on paper” pro Capitalism and Democrats de jure pro Collectivism (see Minnesota DEI Public Education takeover being codified into law as we speak and California too--I suspect--as prototypes).

Since roughly half of the voters in the last POTUS election voted for the Democrats—as Democrats insist on pointing out to us--then it’s not that much of a stretch to conclude.

America is 50/50 on the Capitalism versus Marxism spectrum.

The Democrats want Marxism and the Republicans want Capitalism.

Which one do you want?

The new normal we are in is: You have to choose.

You no longer can sit on the fence—or as Father R.J. Altier Catholic Priest of St. Paul Minnesota said: “... apathetically in the Church pews week after week after week ....”

Good and Evil are knocking at your doors.

Which one are you going to open and go through?

That is, to be clear, Capitalism is good, Collectivism is evil.

Unfortunately, my cynical self is winning the internal argument: Capitalism is downstream from Selfish’ism and Collectivism is downstream from Altruism so that the real ask is: Can you become Selfish, really selfish, so authentically selfish that you will promote it and it’s good, virtuous offspring Capitalism?

I want to say, give me a break but ...

Dunno.

TWT.

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu ... fi .... time will tell.

Pebble #1.

The Democrats have Mastered the Art of using our Constitution to get their Marxist ways weaved, stitched, threaded (take your pick) into our “life, liberty, property and the pursuit of happiness” American way.
