Hard to pick a favorite salad today: Asian cucumber, broccoli rabe/ cherry tomato/ white bean, or coleslaw w/ grapefruit and apples.
Who'm I kidding, it's the coleslaw. Me big Russkie*, love my cabbage.

Humans are not rational moral agents.

I critique top moral psychology and adjacent books. These books do an excellent job of explaining that humans are inherently irrational…

…then they dispense the advice: Be rational. 🧐
For those in the know, this is the fundamental problem with psychology, economics, politics, and a host of other disciplines that presume rationality.

The end of reason.
I believe that the biggest mistake made by historical materialists and communist thought leaders was not taking Nietzsche seriously and not reading Dostoyevsky. I still consider their economic and socio-political analysis to be brilliant. And if one were to read Rosa Luxemburg today without blinders (which is admittedly difficult because one has to fight through all the Communist Party self-gratification), one would learn a lot about the world as it is today. Communism is now itself historical. It no longer exists and will never exist again. But it is knowledge of humanity. And we are forgiving it at the moment because we are following sick anti-communists. Reactionaries are never good advisors. Historical materialist thinking is the logical continuation of Hegel and one of the highest forms of European enlightenment. In any case, it is better than getting your political education from YouTube.

The people who want to replace humans with AI or relish making life for humans miserable have feels:
AI firm Anthropic said 'it needed to protect the AI’s “welfare”'.
Elmo wrote '“torturing AI is not OK”.'
Oh, and someone programmed LLMs to refer to the collection of bytes in the human first person singular "I".
My pet rock wishes all of you a Happy New Year!
Did you know that around 1770, David Hume was briefly a #Christian?
Hume is famous for being solely devoted to #reason.
When he fell into a bog outside Edinburgh one time, he reasoned unexpectedly.
He was stuck; then a fishwife found him. She recognised him as 'Hume the #Atheist'. She decided to extract an oath to #Christianity from him in exchange for her help.
Surprisingly, Hume readily agreed*. Since false oaths are unprovable, he was therefore briefly religious.

'Statutory Rape Is An Outdated Concept'. Age of Consent and similar topics demonstrate that logic need not apply in emotional hot-button cases. Most people are incapable of getting past the emotional response. .👉 https://philosophics.blog/2025/12/28/statutory-rape-is-an-outdated-concept/?utm_source=masto&utm_medium=social
