| I am an [[File:Anego.png]] Egoist, [[File:Pragmat.png]] Pragmatist, [[File:Postciv.png]] Post-Civilisationist, [[File:AntiTheism.png]] Iconoclast, and [[File:Anti-Humanism.png]] Anti-Humanist.
| |
| | |
| I am influenced by a variety of schools, most notably by [[File:Postanalytic.png]] Post-Analytic Philosophy, [[File:Freud.png]] Psychoanalysis, German [[File:IdealismPhil.png]] Idealism & [[File:RomanticismAlt.png]] Romanticism, [[File:PolNil.png]] Political Nihilism, and by various [[File:Poststruct.png]] Post-Structuralist thinkers.
| |
| | |
| Unlike what my influences describe, my thought is grounded not in [[File:PolNil.png]] [[phil:Political Nihilism|Political Nihilism]] nor [[File:AnindnoI.png]] [[Anarcho-Individualism|Egoist/Individualist Anarchism]], but rather in a very broad [[File:Philan.png]] [[Philosophical Anarchism|philosophically anarchist]] interpretation of [[File:Anticiv.png]] [[phil:Anti-Civilization|anti-civilization]] and [[File:Postciv.png]] [[phil:Post-Civilization|post-civilization]] philosophy; seeing the subjects relation to the state as just another of the same phenomenon which underpins modern civilisation. I see [[File:Krit.png]] [[Communitarianism|civilisation]], [[File:Sec.png]] [[Authoritarianism|the state]], [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism|capitalism]], [[File:Trad.png]] [[Traditionalism|traditions]], or any other [[File:HistPhil.png]] [[phil:Historicism|contingent historical phenomenon]], etc., as neither desirable nor regrettable; they are simply existent, and our relation to such phenomena underpins societal ills.
| |
| | |
| I see civilisation, capital, culture, ideology, etc., as part of a domesticating process through which individuals find themselves under subjectification. However, this does not create oppression by itself but rather leads to opportunities, social relations, and the possibility of fixity and ideological domination. My response to such domestication is simply the constant renegotiation of [[File:Indiv.png]] [[phil:Individualism|individuals]], [[File:Struct.png]] [[phil:Structuralism|institutions]], [[File:Social.png]] [[phil:Social_Orgamism|societies]], etc., to themselves and their values through the questioning and revision of values as a form of [[File:Postciv.png]] [[Ultraprogressivism|decadence]] and [[File:Pragmat.png]] [[phil:Pragmatism|pragmatism]].

| The state is ultimately justified, or made legitimate, by individuals voluntarily 'opting' into and consenting to it. Thus, neither [[File:Hobbes.png]] [[phil:Hobbesianism|Security]] nor [[File:Essentialist.png]] [[phil:Essentialism|Universalism]] can ground the state, particularly because in either case, the state is paternalistic and opposed to the interests of its subjects. And would perhaps lead to revolt without the aid of ideology, but obviously, history shows otherwise. It is simply that the security state more often than not promotes violence, oppression, and division. While the universal state openly promotes exclusion and division.
| |
|
| |
| In saying that, such a state, even if [[File:SCT.png]] [[phil:Social_Contract_Theory|unilaterally and directly consensual]] through each individual, would in principle be a justifiable state, allowing, of course, for [[File:Sep.png]] [[Separatism|individual succession]] and the elimination of [[File:Mediastocracy flair.png]] [[Mediacracy|manufactured consent]] or [[File:Ingsocf.png]] [[IngSoc|ideology]]; however, such a state would also in principle be almost impossible, and certainly extremely limited in application.
| |
|
| |
| Not only this, but it is historically impossible. Individuals are not [[File:Kant.png]] [[phil:Kantianism|autonomous]], [[File:Essentialist.png]] [[phil:Cartesianism|essentialistic]], and [[File:Indiv.png]] [[phil:Individualism|atomistic]] beings. Thus, individuals are already born into a social environment with its own norms, culture, values, institutions, etc. Therefore, no individual is free from social determinism and cannot fully consent without influence. Even an ideal and fully justified state is ultimately grounded in a pre-existing social environment. A similar argument also works against [[File:Ancap.png]] [[Anarcho-Capitalism|free-market capitalism]] in that, while yes the state is opposed to voluntary and consensual contracts, the market already exists and forces certain contracts.<ref>Obviously, the choice between labour or death is the no choice at all. It has been said that one has a choice of jobs, but so too does the anarcho-capitalist have a choice of states...</ref>
| |
|
| |
| However, while it is true that [[File:Plato.png]] [[phil:Platonism|several]] [[phil:Kantianism|philosophers]] [[File:Kant.png]] have argued that a state grounded in individual choice and succession will ultimately undermine the state and lead to its destruction, I do not entertain the thought that the state will ever [[File:Marx.png]] [[Marxism|wither away]].<ref>My opinion on action, and what exactly succession amounts to will come at a later point.</ref> Even a [[File:AntiConsti.png]] [[Anarchism|non-constitutional]], [[File:Directdem.png]] [[Democracy#direct_democracy|unilateral direct democratic]], [[File:Republicanismpix.png]] [[Republicanism|republican]] state that autonomously and freely legislates according to a [[File:Rousseau.png]] [[phil:Rousseauism|consensual popular collective will]], would never [[File:Godwin.png]] [[Philosophical Anarchism|perfect the population]], nor [[File:Fichteanism.png]] [[Phil:Fichtean_Idealism|make itself superfluous]]. It would remain stuck within [[File:Mach.png]] politics itself and never be able to transcend this discourse.
| |
|
| |
| Finally, such a state, even if it existed, would require only those individuals who were [[File:EgoUnion.png]] [[Anarcho-Egoism|'interested']] in such a state and its decisions; as soon as it no longer served their interests, they would succeed from the state and return to a 'state of nature' or an atomistic civil society; or more correctly, just a different social relation. Then, we would have individuals not under the authority of the state; it would be short, nasty, and brutish. This obviously paves the way for the need for a security state or a universalist state that has its subjects 'best interests' in mind, one that benefits [[File:Lib.png]] [[Liberalism|citizens]], or [[FIle:Humanismpix.png]] [[Humanism|'humans']] or [[File:Soc.png]] [[Socialism|workers]], etc.
| |
|
| |
| Thus, yes, my ideal state is [[File:AntiConsti.png]] non-constitutional, [[File:Directdem.png]] unilateral direct democratic, and [[File:Republicanismpix.png]] republican state; a state which allows individuals to freely transform values, laws, and institutions for its own purposes. But, seeing as this will never exist, simply because it cannot, I opt for a conception of [[File:Philan.png]] [[Philosophical Anarchism|philosophical anarchism]] in which without such direct, free, and informed consent, there can be no obligation of individuals towards the state; either they freely choose to obligate themselves, or there is no obligation.

| How is 'The State and Its Property' illegitimate? If you truly held to the principle that property is individual protection, then isn't the state currently the most powerful entity that protects its property? As such, according to you, it is your perfect society already.

| Question: If politics was a net negative on your country would you overcome it and bring politics into its nullity? Or would you hold close to it and always remain bound to your highest truth? 'No,' you would say, 'politics cannot be done away with; it is necessary, it is fundamental, it is more important than us.' Liberalism, Fascism? Politics...

| Your similarity to postmodern/post-anarchism with your rejection of an 'Arche' or grounding principle is fascinating. This is why I am surprised you disagree with postmodernism so much. However, in your thought, I find the assurance of human rights to be the primary ground of politics; it seems to be a slight contradiction?

| It is quite strange that through all your insights and some I agree with quite earnestly, post-rationalism is a particular favourite; one then runs into your quite tame and sacred economics. Economic freedom is the same as 'religious freedom' - not freedom from the economy, but the freedom of the economy.

| I am still yet to understand the existence of altruistic egoism. Where does Stirner oppose altruism? When egoists are social, supportive, associative, etc., why does this entail the conclusion that sharing is a moral ought, and that collectivisation is a sacred duty? It is alien to my will, something that can always be separated from the social ego.

| I appreciate the critique of capitalism; I, too, agree that it is a stifle of individuality and creativity. However, I do not support socialism for the same reasons. Additionally, anarchy, even as expression or lifestyle, is still a mode for me to exist within; why can I not act freely and have a me-ism? Why label it and put rules on what I can and can't do; if I idly protested and violently resisted at other times, shall I be shunned as false to '''the''' cause?

| Who is the nation existing for? If it is for the nation, then it can do its own work to benefit itself; if it is for the people of that nation, then why are we supporting the nation and not the people? Additionally, if it is voluntary whether people identify with that nation, then it can hardly be said to be a universal shared value. If individuals stop identifying, they can hardly be said to oppose the nation's interests because they no longer accept the nation itself.

| A collection is not synonymous with collectivism; one is the aggregate of individuals, or merely a multitude of them more so than a total, while the other remains an organisational principle of interests that relate individuals to a supposed shared value. In reality, individuals are connected into a 'collective' through a web of values. Ultimately, if any individual no longer valued what others valued, would you side with the individual or the multitude?

| Oppositional to religion, and yet spiritual; As a firm believer that everything is basically religion (belief), you and I are basically limited to either effective practical belief or fixed sacred belief. Is your spirituality doing anything for 'all of you', or is it prescribing rules for only parts of you? The answer to this question is yours.
