If you value thinking for yourself, free from underlying influences of propaganda and ingrained presumptions, then you may find value in Bonds of Prometheus.
I write about dignity, integrity, and sovereignty of mind. Exploring values of freedom, accountability, critical thought, self-ownership, and individualism over collectivism.
Why Prometheus?
Prometheus stood against the gods as the first troll and narrative breaker. He consciously walked into a losing battle if it meant owning his will. Whatever hell the gods could devise for him, even they couldn’t take away his dignity and integrity.
This blog aims to provoke thought, provide perspective, share insight.
If you are easily offended, if you can’t challenge your cherished beliefs, and if you’re too emotionally invested in your position to give alternative views the benefit of the doubt, then this is no place for you.
Topics: Voluntaryism, philosophy, self-growth.
Things to know about me:
My posts tend to be wordy - you’ve been warned. At the cost of brevity, I prefer to steel-man my argumentation in a way that foresees foreseeable objections, questions, counter-arguments.
I hold an MSc in Economics with military and private intel experience. I’m experienced in market research, analytics, managerial science, motivation psychology, exercise physiology.
I am areligious but do not reject the possibility of a simulation reality.
I am a voluntaryist, which means I find no utilitarian justification to coerce others for whatever supposed “greater good.”
I believe in the non-existence of the state, and in incentive-based decentralized self-governance instead. Do your due diligence before you attempt to debate me on this.
The one absolute morality is non-coercion: no morality has any meaning if it has to be coerced. If anything, the fact that it relies on coercion means that it is nonsense.
I dismantle false dichotomies. The political left & right are a false dichotomy. They are both psyops. No, Trump is not your saviour.
The earth is not flat. The midnight sun phenomenon proves it being a sphere without a doubt.
I try not to block people because even the most time-wasting trolls might have something valuable to say; and I’d like to listen first. Update: I waste too much time looking for peanuts in pop, trying to respond to deliberate straw-man representation of my arguments. From now on, I’ll be blocking with a hint of snark, condescension, deliberate misinterpretation of what I’m saying.
Warning: I am not here to compete against needy retards over who can come up with the better insult. I’m here for constructive win-win arguments, not juvenile bitching. Don’t waste my time with your crippling insecurities.
