🌹Thomas Sowell’s quote, “No one is equal to anything. Even the same man is not equal to himself on different days,” challenges the simplistic notion of equality and highlights the fluidity of human experience.🌹

At its core, the statement argues against rigid definitions of sameness or equivalence, especially when applied to human beings.

Sowell suggests that individuals are in constant flux—physically, mentally, emotionally, and situationally—and as such, cannot be fairly or meaningfully compared either with others or with themselves at different points in time.

This casts doubt on ideological frameworks that insist on equality as uniformity, and instead invites a more nuanced understanding of human complexity.

By observing that even the same individual varies from day to day, Sowell emphasizes the dynamic nature of identity and ability.

A person may be more focused, patient, or energetic one day and entirely different the next due to sleep, stress, nutrition, mood, or circumstance.

This variability means that any attempt to fix individuals into static categories—whether for assessment, judgment, or entitlement—ignores the inherently unstable and evolving nature of human life.

It also implies that personal development, regression, and transformation are natural and unavoidable, making true constancy or equivalence an illusion.

Finally, Sowell’s insight can be seen as a critique of political or philosophical ideologies that treat people as interchangeable units—particularly in economic or social policy.

If people are not even equal to themselves over time, then policies built on assumptions of equality in capability, motivation, or outcomes are likely to be flawed or unjust.

Instead, his remark encourages an appreciation for individuality, imperfection, and the unpredictable journey of each human life.

It invites us to approach both others and ourselves with humility, recognizing that who we are is shaped by an ever-changing interplay of internal and external forces.

In an era dominated by rapid scientific advancement and technological innovation, it’s easy to believe that philosophy has lost its relevance.

I think I chose wrong profession, I should've pick philosophy. I am literally Diogenes of 21st century! #phylosophy #shitpost

"He amasses an extraordinarily large number of quotations but often fails to grasp their meaning. In what follows, I’ll try to give some examples of this. But before doing so, I need to answer a preliminary question. Why should we care about #Slobodian’s mistakes? The answer to that is that a great deal of #Hayek’s Bastards is devoted to an attack on Murray #Rothbard."

so che tanti con il termine opensource intendono software libero, ma non è la stessa cosa, anzi.

Non sono sinonimi i termini, sono due filosofie di vita diverse.

Se si usa il termine opensource si perde un occasione per parlare di libertà, il software libero ne garantisce legalmente 4 di libertà

Qua un articolo che spiega molto bene i motivi
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.it.html

davvero, per aiutarci, basta solo non usare il termine open source, ma preferire la libertà.

A Twitter post by a user named Hegel Borg TM says, "I have a mental illness that makes me think that people will change their minds if I present the correct arguments with the appropriate facts and data."

Very pleased that my poetry film, ‘Palimpsest’, will take part at the Festival Internacional Signos da Noite, 2024 in Lisbon and at the Fotogenia Film Festival 2024, in Mexico City #poetry #poetryfilms #phylosophy #lifecicle

Just finished reading #TheSpiritOfHope a book by #ByungChulHan

It was a really interesting journey. I got this book while looking for that other one about the burnout society, and I got interested in the idea of looking into the concept of #Hope as a kind of answer to the idea that "everything is so fucked up, so what do we do now?". Recommended.

Time, like gravity, does not exist by itself. Gravity is a consequence of the deformation of space-time, therefore time is the consequence of a phenomenon, but what phenomenon?
