I think most things have an understandable reason behind them.
BURN IT DOWN AHAHAHAHA BURN BURN IT ALL AAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA
maybe writers are actually not that intelligent.
>>25603523Isn't this the same kind of stance William James and Frederich Nietzsche had. What was going on in 19th intellectual history that produced this kind of beliefs?
>>25604509>woah why do people disagree with me if im so smart and well read>it must be the truth that is relative...
>>25604487That's the final pill to swallow. Only a few are actually smart, the rest are retards orbitting around them
>>25603523It appears in his essay titled "Fate," which was published in his 1860 collection of essays, The Conduct of Life. >Core Question: Emerson explores the fundamental query, "How shall I live?">It was one of Emerson’s most commercially successful publications and contributed to the evolution of American individualism, pragmatism, and literary philosophy Essentially, we don't see the world as it is; we see it as we are. This famous observation by Ralph Waldo Emerson reminds us that our worldview is often a mirror. When we project judgments onto the world around us, we are rarely describing objective reality. Instead, we are revealing our own inner state, biases, values, and insecuritiesHow people view the world usually breaks down into a few revealing patterns:• The Cynic: A constant focus on corruption or cruelty often betrays a person's inner bitterness, exhaustion, or past hurts.• The Optimist: Seeing constant opportunity and goodness usually reflects a mind rooted in resilience, peace, and self-belief.• The Critic: Harshly judging how others live their lives is frequently a subconscious deflection from one's own unmet standards or personal frustrations

Or maybe they have just realized that no one can attain a position of power without being at least slightly evil.I strongly dislike this kind of psychologising because it reduces people, who have a wealth of experience, background, and knowledge, to some diagnosis so they can easily be dismissed rather than discussing their worldview on its own merit.

When we project judgments onto the world around us, we are rarely describing objective reality. Instead, we are revealing our own inner state, biases, values, and insecuritiesThe Psychological Truth Behind the TextThe breakdown provided in your statement is completely accurate according to modern psychology:• Projection: When we judge others or express bitterness toward the world, we are often projecting our own internal anxieties, values, and insecurities outward.• Cognitive Filters: Human brains do not record objective reality like a video camera. Instead, our subconscious filters everything we experience through a lifetime of emotional states, cultural conditioning, and personal biases.
>>25603523Another famous line, "We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are," was written by Anaïs Nin in her 1961 novel Seduction of the MinotaurSeduction of the Minotaur (1961) by Anaïs Nin is the fifth and final volume of her continuous novel sequence, Cities of the Interior. Its significance lies in its psychological exploration of consciousness, self-psychoanalysis, and the transformation of the unconsciousThe protagonist, Lillian, travels from New York to a tropical Mexican city based on Acapulco to escape a stagnant marriage and emotional stasis. Her physical journey mirrors an internal descent into her own psycheThe title draws on the Freudian concept of the monster in the unconscious confined within a labyrinth. Instead of destroying or killing one's inner monster (like the mythic Theseus killing the Minotaur), Nin argues that the repressed self must be "seduced"—brought to light and integrated through conscious self-awareness and psychological insight

everything we say says something about us.
>>25608802Anon you're supposed to tell the GenX/Boomer xitter tourist that posted that that he is smart and makes good observations
Same goes for their politics.
>>25603523Would be a truth nuke if so many people didn't contradict their stated values with their actions so frequently.
>>25604509Nietzsche read Emerson, but afaik James really came up with the idea independently.
