This is a great show. I'm actually amazed that it got this far. He 'tried' to kill himself? Talk about being a failure at everything! Wow.
I downloaded the video. Although it was about 'the usual suspects', his presentation included some new insights, for me anyway. I'm not a Corbett...

"In stature, The Glass Bees is equal to the technocracies of Orwell, Huxley, Kafka and Philip K. Dick, but it seems to be either unknown or unjustly neglected by readers of these and similar dystopian futures. The book’s greatness comes from Jünger’s ability to create psychological tension and ambiguity, and from his foresight into the nascent conjunction of information technology, entertainment media, capital and political power as we know it today."
One reviewer of The Forrest Passage indicates this is what Junger’s intent is in this book. How to keep your Self, grow your Self in the midst of tyranny.
Quote from the review: “Thus, it is imperative to draw on the self-practice consisting in keeping the catastrophe in view and in taking into account “the ways in which one may get entangled in it” because if we employ this exercise, “the fear will diminish”. In other words, Jünger theorized the recourse to the self-technology of the premeditation on future evils.” I would paraphrase this to, if you see the narrative and manipulation you free yourself from the fear.
"robbing tyranny of its bite....its seriousness, disarm it with humour"

isn't their idiocy farcical enough, as how do you ridicule a reality that outdoes the stupidest of inventions, there's nothing serious enough to be shaped into comical,, "hey lets make a joke about the antics of out to lunch madmen doing the craziest of things"....Erm ?.
And it's been that way for decades, how the people didn't notice it's rise, now that, is hilarious..

“Though, like Everhard, they did not dream of the nature of it, there were men, even before his time, who caught glimpses of the shadow. John C. Calhoun said: "A power has risen up in the government greater than the people themselves, consisting of many and various and powerful interests, combined into one mass, and held together by the cohesive power of the vast surplus in the banks." And that great humanist, Abraham Lincoln, said, just before his assassination: "I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. . . . Corporations have been enthroned, an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money-power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until the wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed.”
― Jack London, The Iron Heel - 1907
Well, I'll provide a clue - to observe something changes it after the observation and so suggest everything is in flux and everything must be changing in time - nothing is static - not even nothing.
An observer might not think they are making a difference, but the mere act of observing changes what is being observed - does it not?
So, I don't ascribe to quantum ideas as they have evolved into, but this idea has merit. The act of observing something small scale especially means the something observed ain't the same as what it was before senses were fixed upon it - and to take this to its logical extreme in an ironic way it sort of proves that quantum mechanics is nothing but mathematical imagination gone all post-modernist where nothing can be defined and nothing is everything and vice-versa at the same time.
But, let us all agree that some things are based upon solid foundation and observation does not change these things. For example, if you have ever been in love with somebody else, then that love must come from somewhere and truly I suggest - that love is irrefutable - it is fixed. It is not subject to change - no observation can make a difference on that. Ergo - some things are beyond change and beyond language, they are beyond semantics, they are fixed as time moves forward - they are irrefutable. They cannot be changed, then never will be, and there is nothing anybody can do even in imagination to refute this.
That is why I think time moves in one direction only in a fixed manner irrefutable - that is what is called a absolute presupposition. It cannot be proved wrong - tis a matter of principle.
But if that is the principle one takes, then the stance is fixed - and nothing or anything anybody does or says will change the stance. It is fixed - it is an absolute presupposition.
OK?
Can you live with that?
If not - tell me why?
Regardless - it is the principle upon which I reside - the foundation of my being.
So, I don't know about you, but I hope for better times in the future and I can say this with confidence.
Time will tell.

As for "time" it is fixed - there is no negating it but it is not the master of us is what I think - what you think?
I think time just is - and it moves in a static way defined click by click or moment by moment and the passing of time is the same for all things in the universe....it just is. That is why I refer to it as an absolute presupposition.
You know? Or do you not understand time.
???
How about a kiss as well?
Time is NOT oppressive - it just is - I mean figure it out....there is no denying time.
Grow old with grace if you can.
Now our Jack Russel, she is most spry and she is almost 16 years old, in July she will be I've been told, and we checked - the oldest living Jack Russel was something like 21 years old, and if I can get my dog in the Guinness Book of World Records, well eff me I will do it. If the dog gets close - like it is 20 years old, and there is a chance we can get in the record book, then I will spend the funds to keep the dog alive I guess - is that ego? Maybe it is.....ha, ha....
So far we haven't had to spend a dime more than needed besides giving the dog the medicine that keeps her sphincter in line so that her incontinence doesn't diminish any of our lives - hers and ours both. Who the hell came up with this medicine to keep the sphincter tight I wonder? This is why I sort of thing the whole "germ theory" versus "terrain theory" is sort of a fabricated conflict, but if push came to shove I hope you know what corner I am in - Camp Bechamp so to speak.
I appreciate pretty much everything you share and your wisdom regarding those pushing narratives evidently false.
I think big changes are upon us - I'm sure you are ready, but if you need anything I can provide then I will if I can.
Your internet friend,
Ken
Now, lets remember Rommel was also involved in the plot and Rommel was killed for his part. He did it for his family, Rommel did. Germany truly needs to get a clue.

Sort of speaks to the difference between observing and being observed.
52 minutes in.
No coercion desired....obedience to obey is not necessarily bad, but it is first and foremost critical to maintain ones integrity against ideas of the state. To be subject to the state is to deny ones own individuality - any state pushes this or that is a state to be denied, refuted, and rejected.
Automatons are a dime a dozen.
Basically 1:02 minutes in plus 30 seconds when there was a pause.
If I have to use the bat I will - to protect my home and my family.
I don't give heed to attracting opponents to my principle.
I will defend my principle which is based upon
defense - so response will be
accordingly.
DUH!
My taste in music is HUGE, just love it, another ditti should you be so inclined [Link] Enjoy
It's strange, AR3311 was a MONSTER sunspot whilst navigating the farside of our Sun, for there to have been such a variance of output activity it make one question, what's going on that effects the farside?
Now AR3311 has mellowed some as its crossed the limb, the next 3 days could still be interesting though
Thanks WN3.

One of his comments regarding thought struck home, I have FND ( functional neurological disorder) my mind wont stop thinking and as a consequence it shuts me down and I become temporarily, 99% paralysised physically.
I get ideas and thoughts seemingly from nowhere, deep thoughts that disappear as quickly as they arrive if I Don't capture them.
30+ years of delving and someone else can rattle it off just like that, one thing he failed to mention, ours Sun twin is over due and once more chaos will reign through our Solar System as this passing is realised.
Thanks for the Link, it's nice to know I'm not alone with one's thoughts
