Proletariat Blogging in the Heart of (UK) Predatory Capitalism! Exploring the Interface between Matter and Perception, Chinese Buddhism, Daoism, Hakka Ethnography, and All Aspects of Radical Politics, History, Psychology and Philosophy – 全世界无产者联合起来!
Well, it’s that time of year again in the UK. All the school children are invited to wear a festive jumper – which is a little ironic for the Sikhs, Muslims, and Hindus that live amongst us. There might also be one or two reluctant Jews thrown into the mix. After all, most of these groups have already celebrate their equivalents of Xmas.
The research published on Thursday in Nature presents the first direct genetic evidence regarding the origins of the Shimao population — the builders of Shimao, a massive Neolithic walled settlement in northern China that thrived around 4,300 years ago and was abandoned about 500 years later.
The findings, based on genetic analysis of ancient individuals, offer a glimpse into the kinship practices, including sex-specific sacrificial rituals, of an early state-level society in East Asia.
The 4-million-square-metre Shimao city is the largest known prehistoric settlement in China. Its sophisticated fortifications, including pyramid-like platform, cyclopean stone walls, palatial complexes and stone carving, along with high-status artifacts like exquisite jades, point to a highly complex, stratified society.
Human evolution appears to possess a “religious” imperative – which I think might be due to sentient-beings experiencing determined material processes – with no physical ability to prevent these processes from unfolding or occurring. Why does theistic religion persist? Well, we are all born – and we will all cease to physically function at some point in future time and space (that is “die”). Whilst the biologically explainable process of “birth” is generally welcomed (within a range of certain caveats) – death is generally disdained, and herein lies the polarity that gives rise to religion – namely “uncertainty”.
Aliens and gods dissolve back into the shadows from whence they came. All the uncaring and abusive medicalised experiences on the UFOs just turn out to be the ruthless agency of private health and its lack of care for those who pay for its services – possibly on an aeroplane. Reading the thoughts of others turns out to be merely mistaking one’s own thought patterns as belonging to someone else. Universal love – experienced only inside the individual – is a narcissistic reaction to the mindless brutality and indifference projected by all others living in a predatory capitalist society. This is how a worker suffers from being abducted by a sense of alienation. Why – what did you think I meant?
Religion is a major contributing factor to all world conflicts (be it Judaism, Christianity, or Islam). Support for one side other another should not be taken to automatically imply siding with the religion of that preferred side. Under Biden, for instance, Colombia appeared untroubled by America’s official Russophobia and its support for Neo-Nazi Ukraine – but since the advent of Trump II’s overt and pronounced anti-Colombian racism at home (ICE) and abroad – perhaps this has switched the pendulum firmly in the other direction. Who knows? The Vatican has longevity and even got away with supporting Mussolini and Hitler before, during, and after WWII!
As a result of the identified discrepancies in this case, the BMA could not allow them entry right away, as further verifications had to be undertaken. While these processes were unfolding, vulnerable members of the travelling company were disembarked onto airconditioned busses. The Government of South Africa subsequently interacted with the Palestinian embassy and other role-players. It was established that the absence of stamps, return tickets and accommodation addresses did not indicate that the travellers wished to apply for asylum.
