accordingly as there is no new thing under the sun, epiphanius categorizes heresy. nevertheless heresy since aquinas consists of
* freethought, to obstinately refer to any hint of Creation as it has always been thus, and after rejecting God, then reject moral realism as cant derive an ought from an is. the doctrine of midwits who revel in their ignorance, advised by euler with the argument that God allows their ignorance to avoid making them more culpable for their sins that they choose over knowledge
* cartesianism, the presumptious doctrine of demarcating between God's sphere of action and outside of God's sphere of action, refuted by boyle by pointing out that the cartesians themselves have the watchmaker God insert souls into the world, a larger miracle than a small violation of conservation of energy
* calvinism, the arrogance not to claim salvation for self and damnation for others but to view the others as a mass of reprobates to be ruled over, as the Lord and His apostles did not

these are complex political systems providing key incentives to their votaries, not just a guy riffs this way off a verse of scripture and leads a mystery school of extortion and excess. the current heresies are
* feminism, which can only be described by its bribes and threats and expansion of state power, starting with threatening every man to say nothing on pain of having his kids taken away
* liberalism, the concept that God's will is in the concentration of money

>Blum was born at Beth Moses Hospital (now part of Maimonides Medical Center) in Brooklyn,[3] to Ruth (née Katz) and Isidore Blum, who were Polish Jewish immigrants. His father was a machinist. He was a graduate of Erasmus Hall High School and gained a degree in accountancy in 1955 from the City College School of Business and Civic Administration, which later became Baruch College of the City University of New York.[1][4] Blum worked as a computer programmer for IBM and later the U.S. State Department. He had the ambition of becoming a foreign service officer to, as he explained, "take part in the great anti-Communist crusade" but was later disillusioned by the Vietnam War. Blum became involved in anti–Vietnam War activism and was pressured to resign his government post in 1967.[1]

Something that interested me lately, is the idea that liberalism has reshaped words and meanings. Some very important concepts of the past which were troublesome to the ideas of Liberalism have been simply painted over and adopted, almost like the Greek religion adopting a new god from a conquered civilization.

The very word "liberty" has shifted from meaning the mastery of internal passions and ability to self-govern, to the individual right to personal autonomy.

It makes me think, if one of the first steps to starting a post-liberalism world is first in either a return to old definitions, or building new ones so that we aren't forced to communicate in liberal terms.
I know Heidegger went to great pains to correct misinterpretations of words and meanings, and create new words to capture his meanings. While it might seem trivial, words carry a lot of meaning in them.

I mostly got that from picrel, which an anon posted a couple days ago.
Its not bad, a little repetitive and more of a collection of primary sources than an original work in and of itself, but now I have plenty of primary sources to check out next.

The form of governments throughout history have developed less via ideology and more out of competition, and that's why we tend to see a trend towards homogeneity in governmental form. It's sort of like a 'survival of the fittest' applied to State structures, as a very dumbed down way of putting it. Eg as soon as Government A was able to justify levying its citizens via (mass) conscription, it was inevitable that all other State's would follow suit, else they be conquered. This sort of competition can be used to describe the accumulation of power in the hands of the State over our long history, and he documents it historically.

Alternatively:
> Read Altemeyer's work on the Authoritarian Personality
> Reject the left because liberals will never admit some people are morally and intellectually superior or that the authoritarian 40% of the population does not deserve democracy
> Reject the right because Altemeyer shows authoritarian conservatism is a form of mental illness that sabotages social order
> Isolate the genes that predispose to RWA, narcissism, and sociopathy. Remove voting rights, public service eligibility, and institute a 10 million dollar bank account limit for those individuals with overflow going into charities

Altemeyer estimates that around 7% of Americans could be classified as authoritarian followers, and around 1% as authoritarian leaders. About 25% of Americans carry some noticeable level of the traits.
Right now, 20% of Americans suffer from depression, a condition that largely only affects the patient, and we have no issue telling them they have disordered thinking or making them take drugs. We also don't mind taking away their constitutionally granted rights, like gun ownership.
So telling RWA types that they are not allowed to participate in governance doesn't even seem radical. It's acknowledging the unfortunate reality that some humans are still not able to fully uphold the social contract with the rest of us.

NTA but like this.

Classical Liberalism: Stands for the liberation of money and markets from the monarchy. False sheen of liberating the masses ("you have to pull yerself up by the bootstraps and join us, son")

Middle period liberalism: Called Progressivism or Social-Democracy, it had to adopt a little slice of the socialist ideas to patch the sunken capitalist project, pissing off the old classical who thought the "market correction" had to kill off a few million more and then the economy would right itself.

Neoliberalism: Stands for socialism for the rich austerity for the poor. False sheen of liberation for the masses. (Classical liberals still think the govt is doing the middle period and thinks they can bootstrap their way into riches is only the Fed were gone)

It is three separate stages, but the behavior is pretty much the same. Evil and corrupting. Culture killing cancer of mankind
