"We Will Win Because We Are Right and You Are Wrong!"

On How Marx Exposed “Inverted” Bourgeois Religious Thinking – and Proved Hitler Wrong – the Jews Did Not Invent Communism! (24.6.2025)

In fact, there is one sublime and pristine observational comment made by Karl Marx which kills all theistic religion dead in the water – never to be re-born again. This is a very different situation than simply deciding to be an atheist or non-theist, etc. Anyone can place their mind anywhere on an arbitrary scale that measures “belief” and “disbelief”. Hitler, for instance, had so many contradictory beliefs that it is obvious his thought processes were all over the place and lacked a proper anchoring in existential logic and reason. He ordered 800,000 ethnic Germans to be publicly executed (many beheaded with an axe) for disagreeing with his flaky thinking. As Hitler possessed “no original thought” – he was unable to produce any truly “original thinking”. Hitler simply spent his time recycling old hatreds in new ways, believed scarecrows were ancient fertility gods, declared June 21st New Year’s Day, and made sure his maniacal soldiers received a steady supply of performance enhancing amphetamines – drugs that enabled the wounded to keep fighting and the usually placid to be full of rage and anger.

On Attempting to Be Theoretically and Practically “Free”! (17.11.2023)

This situation reminds me of Carl Jung, an ethnic German born in Switzerland, who in 1956 published a ridiculous little book purportedly about ‘UFOs’ – but which contained a section openly attacking the USSR (parroting US Cold War Propaganda) just 11-years after Jung’s ethnicity had perpetuated one of the worst crimes in human history – killing and maiming 41-million in the USSR! Jung NEVER addressed the inhumanity of his fellow Germans but felt able to lend his academic weight to the ongoing demonisation of the victims of German immorality. From that day onwards, Jungian thinking and theory become just another path leading to an illusionary freedom – with those who describe themselves as ‘Jungians’ simply making the same interpretive mistakes as their progenitor.

Buddhism: Hinayana and Mahayana Notions of Emptiness! (10.12.2014)

Through the work of Nagarjuna, the Mahayana movement developed the interpretation that physical matter is ‘empty’ of any substantiality. This is due to Nagarjuna applying his tetra lemma (catuskoti) formula to the assessment of the ‘Chain of Dependent Origination’ (Pratītyasamutpāda), and logically proving that just as the true enlightened state has no-self associated with it; then it is also equally true that physical matter has no substantiality associated with it. Everything is dependent upon everything else, conditioned by everything else, and contingent upon everything else.
