Ibn Maghreb on Nostr: Syntheticism - trying to replace God with slow and cumbersome bureaucratic ...
Syntheticism - trying to replace God with slow and cumbersome bureaucratic institutions - ''the State'' with promises based around abstractions grounded in political ideology of one particular flavour of the Enlightenment or the other - Marxism. Liberalism etc
21st century - trying to replace God by reinventing the human from a foundational aspect - by manufacturing a new type of biology and neuro-chemistry from scratch. Whether through manipulation via tech or reconstructing aspects of our humanness through piece-meal application.
Such engineering and craftsmanship has been made possible through the harvesting and unparalleled access to the habits of mind and heart of the populace which is viable through a culture of passive digital consumption that trades momentary gratification for privacy.
Remember that the "sexual revolution" was only really made possible through novel pharmacological breakthroughs in contraception.
Prior to that such monstrosities were the preserve of perverted French intellectuals but it was pharmacological manipulation that brought this perversion to the masses - the liberalism we live amidst today in the Anglosphere in its social dimension really is just a child of the pharmacological industry precariously upheld with a cocktail of SSRIs, OCPs and opioid ''analgesia"
