If there exists #corporations in our modern world, with net value/revenue equal to, or higher than some #countries and #governments, what makes You #think that those corporations are not part of, and do not have #influence over governments, or don't cooperate with them ?
We need to wake up and see, that consumerism and corporations go far above selling and buying, and that they are equally a part of how our countries function, and how we are being influenced in variety of ways.

Forming abstract thoughts and ideas is one of the most primal abilities in a human species.
How much is this ability of ours being used in the forming of current society, by governments and by corporations ?

Around 1920 an idea started developing, that humans live in a dream world, that started being later picked up by marketing and governance. What makes You think that this foundational part of being a human isn't used in building current systems and exerting influence over masses, using this as their weak spot ?

How much of current cosumerism and work culture is based on selling dreams and abstract ideas ? How much of sales is being made by convincing people of abstract needs and wants, they didn't even know they had or needed before coming in touch with those who try to sell it ?

"American Dream" ? Dreams of freedom. Dreams of luxury. Dreams of riches. Dreams of convenience. Dreams of safety. Dreams of happiness.

If we aren't just naive sheeps, who want simple things - love, belonging, community. Being sold knock off versions of it, symbols of human needs, without any tengible coverage...

This book on Freud sounds as if it might be worth reading.

I'm inclined to think of Freud and Marx as standing in the same relation to the human sciences as Boyle and Kepler do to the natural; important pioneers, whose path breaking insights were also tangled up in ideas that have been rightly discarded.

I'm aware that the idea of a science of the human is controversial; I feel that Mastodon is not the best place to engage in this controversy.

We have sacrificed lateral thinking in the name of production, efficiency, and profit. Now, for the very same reasons, we’re trying to teach it to machines.
The paradox of AI is, in fact, our own.
Here’s a short article that, moving between past and future, invites us to reflect on our present.

Some thoughts on Jason Ānanda Josephson Storm’s fascinating, provocative book "The Myth of Disenchantment: Magic, Modernity, and the Birth of the Human Sciences" — which shows that intellectual history is far weirder than we might have been led to believe.
