In regards to "isms", it took me a while to reach a place where I could consider the possibility that theorising something might be antithetical to doing it.
So much of the mainstream consists of intellectual edifices that are ultimately empty. There's nothing there, really. They're meretricious. Recapitulating that in more appealing/robust ways is still empty and, of course, results in the infamous hamster wheel dynamic.
The weirdest thing about property, as in real estate, is that at some point way back in time, someone with no authority decided it was theirs. “I found this, it’s mine”. That sense of selfishness is what keeps us all in debt to someone else. Working together became bartering for basic life necessities. It’s ironic now that the only place you can pup a tent and just exist is on the streets of our largest cities. And that is tentative (no pun intended) on whether those who have authority (yet no ownership) will let you stay there. It seems like human nature to want your own stuff and to own your stuff, but if we all shared what we needed and just took care of one another, would you notice that you owned nothing since you had all you need?
That hurt my brain a little.
Father forgive us, for we know not what we do.
