More than anything I hate hurting feelings. Hopefully, Paul you will never read this. Also, hopefully, you used the money you got from me to buy Chain-link or some other cool crypto. Ok stop now, I know you read this far, stop reading. Despite the mean things I say I do love you in a true sense, as I sense you are a lot like me, a moon-man - but perhaps not, true and proper as I. Ok bye paul.... BYE. There he is gone. Do not get me wrong! Paul has decent intuitive abilities - I and him are alike as we are both schizo-types - but really, he deals so much with the particular! Here and there are some good essays, which I enjoyed partially. His intuition is good, and he expresses some telling things - but these telling things are obvious to anyone who is not a normie. And I understand he wants me to "relax and enjoy" and simply mindlessly read - but I am a savant Paul. I am quite literally the usurper of Virgil. I only care about the truth - I DO NOT HAVE TIME TO WASTE. - See, that's the thing, Paul cares mostly about practical and particular things. When it comes to triumphing in this abhorrent society of ours, I am sure he will triumph. But this is practical, genius, as a rule, is never practical. He is a midwit, that can barely grasp the thing-in-itself, the world beneath the veil (or the psychic realm as he puts it). He does not have the intelligence to put the Platonic Ideals into the form of comprehendible concepts, in fact, he seems to have a liking for obfuscation. What is the meaning of this? Incredibly bland. It is mediocrity. True enjoyment is gained when a work expresses Platonic Ideals. That is why Ryunosuke Akutagawa is so good. He deals with the universals of humanity, and cuts deep. And even when he expresses an idea about a contemporary issue, it is done so in a universal way. That is why the work 'Kappa' so great and why my Divine Sign led me to him. I read plenty of his essays online - his metaphysics is horrible. He told me (via twitter) that he read Schopenhauer, but then, he speaks of "feed-back-loops" in which the world of perception, i.e. causality can affect the psychic world, the thing in itself. So what this means is that that which is "always becoming but never is" (using Plato's language) can change the immutable. What garbage. Let us not forget that "feed-back-loops", i.e., reciprocal effects, an erroneous belief held by Kant, was corrected by Schopenhauer in the final portions of "The World as Will and Representation" Volume One. Also, in his "Fourfold Root of the Principle of Sufficient Reasons", Schopenhauer says on the topic of reciprocal effects "It will be noted that, as a rule, authors make use of this concept when their views begin to become unclear; thus, its use is just as frequent. Indeed, when ideas completely run out for a writer, no word is more ready to suggest itself than Wechselwirkung; thus, the reader can even regard the word as a kind of warning shot indicating that the author is in deep trouble." (Wechselwirkung means reciprocal effect) Yet, not only acts as if he read Schopenhauer, but acts as if he knows more than! Paul is of the world, he is not like us dear Schopenhauer! You made me think you had some hidden knowledge; that your tweets were more than just humbug sophistry - but no, that is what they were. Veil, veil, veil. As is said in "Rameau's Nephew" on the topic of the musician Rameau "...20 years and never more!", that is, soon enough no one will know your name. What do you mean you read all of this? Come here, sit. Paul I did not mean to hurt your feelings, hurting you is like hurting me. You will, in your life-time, conquer the world! Please do not get sad, but this must be said - it is not me, but the Holy Spirit typing!Here, friend, my friend - I will write you a poem, just for you, and only you (if you are not Paul stop looking at the screen)"In the final grace,So gently, so gently,Came the man of men of double-face. He spoke and lied,Said he loved life,But to tell the truth:He wished for Wormwood."
