always makes sense to ask, if someone says "I have free will", what is the subject? free with respect to what? will in what terms? then you end up with shit like "my accumulated symbolic system, used to direct my physical actions, is resistant to influence from the social world"

and im thinking, ok, that makes sense, you're not free wrt the ecosystem of matter, but you're less behaviorally tracked than Avg Joe. but like wouldn't schizophrenics be even MORE free, then? idk

true way is to accumulate perspectives which can be deployed at will (such as closed system entropy, strong determinism, the universe being filled with the light of divine love, and eternal recurrence) that can be used to bludgeon reason into submission when it gets out of hand

This is doctrine from Principia Discordia. But you know I can't even think the notion eternal recurrence without being reminded of Nietzsche, and who wants to be reminded of that guy?

Thanks for posting this again, though. I haven't spent as much time with it as I should have since you first pointed it out to me. Your tweet did me good, twice so far.
