I mean, but do I believe?

I believe, but do I feel?

I feel, but am I?

      The earth moves beneath you, suddenly! And the void grows, fast! You struggle to find hold, Anything, whatever it maybe..!    But there's only emptiness, air! That reaches your hands, and feet! The heart races, the body twitches, While the darkness just keeps growing..   You refuse to see the truth, the light! That you are lost, and falling! Falling fast and deep, Into the void, you were always scared of!    But you wonder, If it's the void, Or being pushed to it, Unexpectedly, but "lovingly" That hurts most!

Twilight zone: The past ghosts as the rulers of the present

Using the details in a personal note (“The Good Place”) and this grok chat. Not an ideal article, but took few hours compared to weeks... Introduction: Contextualizing the Persistence of Modern Structures In the twilight zone of our present reality, the ghosts of the past continue to rule, their specters haunting the structures of our post-Modern world. Despite the apparent shifts from the modern to the post-Modern era, the deep-seated structures of capitalism, control, and social hierarchies persist, often dressed in the rhetoric of progress and liberation. This article aims to explore how the modern era’s foundational elements have subverted or thrived within the post-Modern context, revealing that the more things change, the more they remain the same. From social structures to religion and spirituality, each dimension of society has been transformed, yet the underlying power dynamics remain remarkably consistent. By examining these dimensions, we can see how the post-Modern e...

Why school districts?

School districts seem pretty intuitive, accepting only kids that live close to school. But is it really a fair approach? The schools in low income neighborhoods gets less and less resources (not particularly monetary resources, but personnel resources), and kids in those areas tend to mingle with more and more high risk kids which creates a downward spiral of negative youth development. On the contrary, if the schools would accept any kid, from, say the county, or the state, that would flatten out this problem. Yes, you wouldnt want your kid to be hanging out with those gangster kids... But the reality is, your child looks for peers who matches his and his parents views. Thus if you spend more time looking after him, you wouldnt have to worry as much about his or her peers.

White supremacy and russophobia!

Compiled using grok, gemini, chatgpt etc: The evolution of xenophobia against Eastern Europeans in Western Europe, particularly through the lenses of colonial white supremacy and neo-imperialism post-Cold War, is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon rooted in historical, economic, and geopolitical dynamics. This survey note aims to provide a comprehensive analysis, drawing on academic sources and historical evidence to trace the development of these attitudes. Historical Roots: Enlightenment and the Construction of Eastern Europe The intellectual foundations of xenophobia against Eastern Europeans can be traced to the Enlightenment period, as elucidated by Larry Wolff in his seminal work, Inventing Eastern Europe: The Map of Civilization on the Mind of the Enlightenment ( Inventing Eastern Europe: The Map of Civilization on the Mind of the Enlightenment ). Wolff argues that Western European philosophers, viewing the continent from the perspective of Paris, deliberately cultivated t...
