ASDERATHOS-ISMs


Things I have said, which I want to remember, so as to say them again even if no one is listening...
___________________________________________________________________________________________________


Sorted by Subject and subtopic
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

Abortion
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

"Cruelty is what is born of holding the choice of death sacred and not the choice of life; is it not cruel from the beginning to snuff out the life of a child in the womb giving them no choice?
A clump of cells at some point becomes human, and the current line of measure isn't just distorted and wrong but being pushed further so, in the name of "Choice"."
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

America
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

"To those who profess to hate Americans... You've gotta be [at least] 50 kinds of ignorant to hate 'the people' of the most diverse nation on earth."
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

Arty Poet Talk And BLATHERSKITE
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
"With that same old floating heart in the dark and shaken soul with piercing light, I arted the hell out of the void, albeit filled with a mere simple style of the lackluster illustration made to convey an idea rather than portray mere aesthetics."
"Grey Gouache bleeds not the white or the black but in it surely are both."

"Are artists REALLY So DESPERATE To CURL UP In Their Own UNCHALLENGED IDEALS?"

"Paper and ink are specifically the tools to record ideas the preservation of which is contingent upon individuals not only reading and understanding them but realizing their value, something the progressive youth cannot accomplish if they are dead set against "old Things" until they become useful again at which point they may be long since beyond repair."

"Residence of Hell know not where they dwell... otherwise they'd friggin move"

"A time will come when, fools can no longer laugh at their own peril, the humorless will cackle with hysteria and the Grim Faced Leaders will have needed all the laughs they could get before-hand."

"To paraphrase Mr. T, in a fool there is much to pity, little to envy"
"Regarding Art - Just because someone writes down lies that they believe, doesn't mean that truths, which they don't believe, aren't revealed." =)
"The art within art lies with individual and diverse interpretations"

"The deceptive nature of aesthetics is well documented in colloquial aphorisms." [Looks can be deceiving]
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

Class Struggle
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

"'Class Struggle' is an emotional entreaty to fight against the lawful protection of property rights, exacerbated by 'property rights' initial violation'; intrinsically worsening the condition of the so called "Have Not's" who thereby must have less, upon 'intervention against those with self interest in productive use and further creation of wealth'; wealth creation, which inevitably benefits the poor via Smith's invisible hand."

“[its ideology not conspiracy] Implementing “Positive Rights” being the epitome of progressivism and the antithesis of Constitutional libertarianism. ‘Positive rights’ [to house job medical etc] necessarily indenturing any person of any means demonized as the oppressor to the servitude of the deified victim to the aggrandizement of Governmental powers. Not all that is legal is just.”
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
Culture
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

"One's Culture is the standard by which men lead their lives. So how then can equivocating vastly different standards as equal fall within the realm of sanity."

"If you want to get simplistic about it, Only Two things bring men together and only Two things divides them; Commonality And Difference. The Individual decides what among these to value himself."

"culture is the basis for law, and difference the basis for contention. Celebrating similarity in spite of differences has always been the path to harmonious coexistence."

"If ours should be a nation of laws not men, why then should one's ideology be that of men and not ideas?"

"You cannot easily change the morals of others, you can only appeal to those they have, with the truth as you see it, logic reason honesty and empathy win arguments."

"There is no sub-humanity within humanity, except by moral perception of cruelty, or misrepresentation due to ignorance." 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
Eonomics
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

"People should earn their circumstances, and that is only possible with the economic freedom of capitalism"

"Rome fell because of; A Democratic Demand for Bread and Circuses, Acceptance of Barbarians, Corruption, Over-expansion, and Inflation! USA Troubles are Only: The Democrats Demand of Welfare and Entitlements, Illegal Alien Amnesty, Corruption, A Military Spread too Thin and Inflation We're FINE!~ lol yeah right"
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

___________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
Fools
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

“Do NOT ignore truths merely because they are spoken by fools! Do NOT believe foolishness merely because it is spoken by Geniuses"

Intentions are no method for judging the effects of policy, or else there would be nothing to fear from a world run by fools. -ASD

by nature anyone [of difficulty or slight complexity] can meet the initial preconceptions of a fool [for immediate disregard] and be dismissed for them without explanation or opportunity for rebuttal.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
FREEDOM
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

"One's Own Freedom is a balance of Inhibitions, "Preserving" and "Destructive" -Constraints- to allow for the freedom of others, thus we must become again in Washington's Words A Nation Of Laws, Not Men."

"Fascism by the defining characteristic of unanimous self identification seeks to hold sway over ppl by Force, not 'choice' (a defining characteristic of Religion)."

"One's Own Freedom is a balance of Inhibitions, Preserving and Destructive Constraints, to allow for the freedom of others, Ppl must lend part of their God Given Freedom to Govt So As To Secure Those Rights and Greater Freedom, Than Achievable Alone, with Rule of Law."

"Anarchism is the gateway to dystopia; unimaginable to the Ignorant Ivory Tower Philosophers So Accustomed to mental masturbation without fearing the consequences of real world application."

"If ours should be a nation of laws not men, why then should one's ideology be that of men and not ideas?"

"Do not let liberty's victory die the death of a thousand cuts merely for Your lack of appreciating the significance of One Vote to decide an election, or One Voice to sway a thousand votes!~"

"Unity without wisdom is just another mob"

"Borders Language Culture, without these standards of nationhood you are enslaving yourself to the standards of others."

“Freedom being the rarest jewel in the world; to laugh at it’s guardians is not only to congratulate the conquering tyrant, but aid him in his conquest."
   
FREEDOM OF SPEECH
"The whole purpose of "Defending to the Death your right to say it" is to promote the Battlefield of Ideas (Ink above blood) Plugged ears promote a dangerous ignorance amongst ppls (which may rise blood above ink) You might as well be picnicking in the civil war, have yer spouse killed by shrapnel and tote their corpse around like nothing happened" -Asderathos

 "Is there No Such Thing as a dangerous Idea? I say YES, there is, but should we fear the ideas themselves?, NO! We should fear, rather, their incomplete dissemination!" Paraphrased "The only thing dangerous about
ideas are their incomplete dissemination. "
FREEDOM OF RELIGION
"Guaranteed Freedom 'FROM' Religion means NO FREE SPEECH IN THE PUBLIC SQUARE, no prayer in congress which opened with a prayer from its inception, or public schools, no school vouchers for religious schools (being equal in meeting all academic requirements). It implies as interpreted today the removal of all Religious paraphernalia from the public eye. THAT is what Freedom FROM entails. IT IS NO FREEDOM AT ALL but a Tyranny Violating The First Amendment IN THE NAME OF IT. Freedom OF doesn't mean atheists are outlawed, executed, Imprisoned, or made any less equal under the law, nor the religious More Equal! It Does NOT Mean a sudden Theocracy which is the ignorant asinine arguments of the Tyrannical amongst the Godless.

Good and Evil - Human Nature
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

IS MAN, BY NATURE, GOOD OR EVIL?
"The question as to the true nature of man, being either wholly good, or evil, seems too sparse for my taste, as man by his nature is a free creature; not only is he subject solely to his choices and circumstances as an individual; but as to the definition of good and evil; there are very broad, quite contentious and numerous consensuses; it is a matter of man’s perspective only, by which we may judge. I also contend the presumptuous nature of those typically engaged in so narrow a question who’s answer must be deification or demonization of an entire species; regardless of their yes or no answer, it is the collective salvation or damnation of all humanity which can only be described as void of meritocracy."
"The absent distinction between humanity and soul, draws out life, being inevitable conclusions and questions which do not cease. Life is living. Living is life. and the answer is obvious in despite an absence of language.

"We are not born angels and demons, Gods or Mice, we are human, No matter the monsters or martyrs we become, in the eyes of people, in this, we shall remain, equal."

"In the name of Equality, Injustice. In the name of Freedom, Slavery, in the Name of Fraternity, Betrayal, under the banner of the Collective, always Rule the Few [but for the morals of 'the representative']."
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

Immigration
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

“Immigration without Assimilation is nothing less than an Invasion! It destroyed Rome; As it can any nation"

"If ours should be a nation of laws not men, why then should one's ideology be that of men and not ideas?"
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
Islam
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

"If you want to call your sect the "True Islam" that's fine (Most religious sects do [outside of Christians adhering to mosaic law]) but pretending that the 'Islamo-Fascists' are not Muslim as they define it, amounts to spreading confusion, or at worse propaganda, thus defaming everyone who identifies them as such."
"The vast majority of Muslims in the world are unwilling to stand with the "Infidels" against the TERRORISTS, (who should be called the infidels, if they didn't agree). IN FACT, A Poll of US Muslims revealed 70% sympathized with Suicide Bombers."

"A Culture Permeates Islam which encourages Xenophobic Imperial Tribalism, Submissive only to Islamic Leaders for fear of Apostasy."

A Goodbye To 'Moderate' Muslims With Good Will, and Islamo-Fascists With Wily Malice
"Peace be with you, and may you live to see freedom conquer the world."

Israel
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

"Keeping a pack of viscous blood thirsty dogs chained up in the garage because you don't have the heart to put them down is not terrorism. It is compassion to a fault."  

"Disproportionate force is the only kind force that will matter in war."

Myself
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

"A modern caveman suppressing his urge to paint on the walls, a snail riding a turtle cheering, A tame wolf in the wild, a Poet, painter, And sculptor, An old soul trapped in a young body aging too soon."

"I'm merely the proverbial 'blogger living in his mother's basement', with knowledge but without a degree."

"Assert your individuality and your personality will show it's self."

"Are you at all interested in exploring the reason behind my words the Knowledge behind my reason and the Wisdom behind it all, rooted in a History no longer taught?" 

"One's identity is a tapestry of history DNA and environment it is a combination of nature and nurture a complex roll dismissed too easily as All Random."

"Stop painting me the cartoon Nazi, because you don't understand Policy, Practice, or Ideologies' Parallel."

 "My 'Heroes' are all merely great ideas concisely expressed by inspired if flawed men and women"

"I don't give a 3 toed mouse what skin color people have"

Nihilism
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

"If ppl choose to believe that they have not the power to believe, then that is their choice whether they know it or not..."
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

PROPAGANDA and INDOCTRINATION
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

"Dictionaries not having caught up with colloquial meaning attributed: Propaganda is the illegitimate Govt propagation or funding of self aggrandizing and or empowering ideas, often stealthily, through Artistic Mediums."

" Propaganda is opinion falsely portrayed as Objective Truth; therefor no openly 'opinion' show or medium, can be construed as "Propaganda"

"Demonization where refutation is impossible, is The tactics of Fascism." [IE Propaganda]

"Words are not what they seem nor have they been, 1984 was quite a while ago"

"Indoctrination is meant to silence dissent creating Ideological Puppets ignorant of arguments against their mindset, which they progressively demonize [the arguments] to the point of not accepting debate (in any form); as anything but Racist [or other equivalent labels] to ostracize opposition."

“Political correctness is the soft fascism, which drowns ‘free thinking dissent with false guilt”
[A Response to TheYoungTurks]
Dictionarily, Propaganda is any promulgation of any opinion. I prefer a more restricting definition of Govt. Promulgation, or any demonstrable False declaration of objectivity. If you define News (Dictionarily falsely) as synonymous with stark objective fact distribution, no one meets that criteria.
Fair and Balanced being obviously subjective terms; unless? News Anchors actually state that they ARE Objective rather than (the only thing I've ever heard from any anchor) a statement of "We try to be objective"; only then (Using my 3rd definition) could you actually define FOX News as Propaganda without indicting yourself (the 2nd definition necessitating that Propaganda be funded, or that it originates with Government. Excluding All News and Opinion Professionals and Amateurs

Race And EQUALITY
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

"There are those who believe in the superiority and inferiority of races; and there are those who blame entire groups for the actions of a few only counted among them by superficial measures."

"Tribalism merely uses distance as a border rather than walls. multicultural immersion without a semblance in core values destroys harmony and births civil war."

"There is no sub-humanity within humanity, except by moral perception of cruelty, or misrepresentation due to ignorance." 

“Every time a leftist falsely accuses someone of racism another devil gets a pitchfork with which to cover up actual racism.”


"Advocating freedom from coercion which allows someone to make a decision which indicates something about them doesn't make you that something." 2012 [sum1 actually said otherwise, hah]
DIVERSITY: EQUALITY VS DISPARATE TREATMENT

"Diversity as a goal elevated above meritocratic excellence is counterproductive to whomever instutes such a policy as well as the ppl themselves whom are elevated for their status rather than ability."

"Disparate Treatment wouldn't be tolerated if it were? favoritism for whites, so why be a hypocrite and favor everyone else?"

"This is the essence of Dr. Savage's 'Diversity Is Perversity' what he means is elevating Diversity above ability is Perverse."
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
  
RELIGION
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

"Religion is voluntary moral self governance. All too often a corrupt Church or Priest is equated with something so thin as a name, ignoring the actual ideologies substantively attached to it."

"God needs no praising for his sake, we praise God for our own sake, as an affirmation! Is life itself not a gift worthy of praise, weekly if not daily? Thanks Giving, private or social is a declaration that the gift is not squandered, but valued; cherished."
"Freedom from Theocracy is confused with freedom from [Forced] Theology; As anti-Church or anti Religion sentiments are confused with Anti-Theism or Anti-God."

"Fascism by the defining characteristic of unanimous self identification seeks to hold sway over ppl by Force, not 'choice' (a defining characteristic of Religion)."=

"RELIGIOUS PHILOSOPHY--- The phrase "Companions of the fire" and the understanding of the word ish/man's etymological root in esh/fire brings to mind that man can either wield his worldly lust and drivings for good or let it be his "companion" rather than a tool to do good in the world."

"A simpler man in his own tongue might have perceived the allegory instinctively while it may take modern scholars of Jesus's moral teachings to understand; Good Christianity, entailing a man be the best he can muster, not just praising the right name."

WITHOUT CHOICE, CHARITY IS NOT LOVE

Theism vs Deism
"If you believe in God, does it not sound foolish that an omnipotent omniscient source and epitome of goodness, wouldn’t have a little something to do with sentient beings? The meaning of life being LIFE that is our free will, our experience and our ability to make Choices, the results of which being so important as to decide our soul’s eternity, as it must if there is good and evil! How limited then is the hand of omnipotence shown but through miracles as evidence for our consideration." [2011]
TAOISM And GNOSTICS
"I've never cared for the Buddhist definition of enlightenment, to achieve it you must attain a kind of indifference to the world, which in and of its self is a kind of nihilism. From a soul rooted perspective life has inherent value and meaning. From a soul tethered perspective it would seem you could smile at tragedy. Suggesting it is not true enlightenment. For hope you must have truth, and mine is that life has meaning, value. Atheists seem to attain a similar 'Enlightenment' in godlessness. It seems to me merely a demonic cold fever of narcissism"
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
   
TRUTH
___________________________________________________________________________________________________

“Do NOT ignore truths merely because they are spoken by fools! Do NOT believe foolishness merely because it is spoken by Geniuses"

"Fight for truths eternal, a history complete lest you lose tomorrow to a blindness of the past."

"How thin the line between Education and Indoctrination; One authority with suggestions on what to read another Telling you what not to read."

"The Height of Simplicity Necessary for Universal Communication loses any message of depth."

"Honest To God Truth, cannot be reached thru man, nor approached by any one man with narrow ideology unchallenged."

"Knowledge is power, attacking credentials [or any lack thereof] is -75 mV"

"Ignorance is only bliss if you're stupid enough to enjoy enslavement of yourself in the name of your own good."

"Ignorance wins you nothing but a tyranny in your own name for the exclusive benefit of others not including yourself."

"In the grand scheme of things; many who do not learn from history will become the villains in it"

"A Perspective Reexamined only Once, is an Indoctrination ETERNAL."

"Presumption is the mother of prejuidice"

"The complacent only fear an end to their complacency; believing in the Benevolence of Govt, flies in the face of all human history. ["Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results" -Einstein] "
"Is there No Such Thing as a dangerous Idea? I say YES, there is, but should we fear the ideas themselves?, NO! We should fear, rather, their incomplete dissemination!" Paraphrased "The only thing dangerous about 
ideas are their incomplete dissemination. " 
 "You cannot easily change the morals of others, you can only appeal to those they have, with the truth as you see it, logic reason honesty and empathy win arguments."

"To bare no judgement of another's opinion is to yourself hold no opinion. Anyone who does this, cannot care about the truth [regarding related matters]."

“Reason can’t shame the obstinately ignorant, so long as they ignore it. Some fools CAN’T admit they’re wrong, or address anything substantive as a matter of pride, not only is there such a thing as pride in one’s ignorance, but a necessity of ignorance for one’s pride."

Hatred of others is a self inflicted disease, [may benevolence cure you] ignorance a curse you put upon yourself [may wisdom prevail you]." - May 30th 2011

There is no such thing as ‘unbias’. Subjectivity is inherent to individual human perception; except where objectivity may be presumed to encroach upon subjectivity through redundant verification and expanding contextualization.
