If man is subject to impulse, post-hoc rationalization of said impulse, and disassociation when facing consequences as a result of those impulses, AND constructs a material world around all of those deceits... How exactly is man not the Demiurge? The Demiurge is a craftsman, not the source. He shapes the world to his liking, then wrongfully claims authorship. That is very much man’s position. Man does not necessarily create matter itself, however we are closing that gap. Things like 3D printing, image and code generation, these are our "let there be" moments. We're not just hiding reality, we're rendering an alternative. The digitization of the planet is a mean to these ends. We are extending our jurisdiction. Man is demiurgic because he creates knowingly at the surface and unknowingly at the root. We are making a world, but we do not know what world we are making... Man does not deem himself God by openly claiming divinity. He does so by refusing any witness above his own post-hoc rationalization. "There is no higher court than me." Self-absolution as first principle, continuity as the highest virtue. This is why even in misery we cling to the false order. Man no longer needs to be ignorant of the lie. He only needs the lie to remain livable. We don't just commit the acts of deceit, we construct the reality that acquits them. We create a lower world from deliberate ignorance, call it order, and forbid appeals to anything higher. And when that appeal inevitably comes, man deems it an attack on reality itself. We lie to ourselves to avoid judging ourselves. Read that back, because the implications are big. A lie requires two positions: the one who knows and the one who must not know. The lie is not created in a vacuum. The lie is a response to an internal witness. Man is the Demiurge.
Yep.>born dumb and blind into a chaotic world>fumbles through life ignoring his conscience>can only ever get a half-assed version of the life he wanted>thinks he’s the center of existenceNow the fun part is reinterpreting freemasonry in this lens. Clearly they worship “the demiurge,” and clearly their whole spiel is about building up a “god-man,” and clearly moral transgression is a big part of that. Someone who not only ignores their conscience but deliberately chooses to go against it, has put himself against God, and thinks himself above God.
>>42564540The Jews call it Karet. While others sin in ignorance, karet is the state of one who knowingly and deliberately does wrong.
>>42564549whether calculated malice or fleeting ignorance leads to sin, my point is that the world gets constructed around the lie we tellthis is the analogy I drawthe brain auto-corrects mistakes and it takes will to make it righti use the term Demiurge because I see humanity has strayed so far from the baseline that we can't even stumble in the right direction anymore, yet we construct these massive false worlds with deep narratives in the midst of doing so
>>42564540Yeah, I believe continuity is their god. Which is to say, unfettered appeasement of (now nurtured) impulse.
>>42564540This world is a soul scamThe reptilians hate people who realize that and choose to be niggers

Would love any more thoughts or critiques of the idea.
