GLOBAL STRATEGIC HYPOTHESES.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dear Reader,

 

 

Have you ever noticed how cosmologists – supposedly scientists – so consistently miss the mark when it comes to the ways of actual Nature? 

 

How their cosmological theories consistently mis-represent the nature of Nature?

 

Contrary-to-Nature theories mean bad science!

 

And notice how their cosmological theories are so often biased toward ‘dys-catastrophe’ and pessimism.

 

Could there be a psychohistorical, collective-subjective, ideological force at work behind their frequent, consistent, massive scientific failures?

 

Earlier, many cosmologists thought, with Hoyle, that our Universe was in a perpetual “steady-state”, instancing yet another testament to the unspoken crypto-Parmenidean postulate that still permeates much of physics – eternal, immutable changelessness; perennial ontological stasis.

 

Or, per the thermodynamics of closed systems, many cosmologists theorized that the fate of our Universe would be “Entropic Doom” – that the universe would end in a uniform, free-energy-less, change-less, eternal, immutable, dead “equilibrium” of maximal entropy.  Crypto-Parmenideanism all over again.

 

Later, with the discovery of what they called “The Big Bang”, many cosmologists contended that our universe would either reverse its expansion into a “Big Crunch”, or expand endlessly, ever more slowly, asymptotically, into an ever more self-diluted wisp.  One ‘dys-catastrophe’ or the other – take your pick: eternal, universal death was to be the outcome either way.

 

To our knowledge, no cosmologist ever considered the possibility that the expansion of our universe was accelerating – thus revealing a huge blind-spot of bias – and of ideology, we hold – in their considerations.

 

However, once that – never expected by them – accelerated expansion was confirmed by observations, they  leapt immediately to another ‘Doomist’ conclusion – the “Big Rip”; space-time-mass-energy ripping itself apart universe-wide, as the ultimate fate of our Universe.

 

We have offered an “optimistic” hypothesis about the future of our cosmos, in the form of the ‘Spandetron Hypothesis’, i.e., the ‘Regenerist Hypothesis’ – ‘Thermodynamic Self-Regeneration of the Free Energy of our Cosmos in the Dialectic of Nature’.  About this, see text images posted above.

 

Just because our hypothesis is “optimistic”, however, doesn’t mean that it must be true – far from it.  This hypothesis must pass all of many tests, or it must die – just as hypotheses in general, in science, are “born to die”. 

 

But the point here is that establishment cosmologists, to our knowledge, never even considered – based upon the apparent nature of “Dark Energy”, and its accelerated self-expansion of our cosmos, that they never anticipated in the first place – such a hypothesis, even for a nano-second.  Perhaps, if one cosmologist did so, the paper was censored in “peer review”, and that cosmologist was then exiled from the profession. 

 

What could it be that produces such ‘Doomist’ bias in the “scientific” community of Cosmology?

 

We suspect that it is the gloom and doom mood of the [formerly?] ruling faction of the capitalist ruling class, ever since they discovered, during the ~1870 to ~1890 “Great [techno-]Deflation”, the fatal flaw, from their point of view, of “their” industrial capitalist system –

 

Capitalism causes vast, accelerated growth in the social forces of production [in “productivity”];

 

Accelerated growth of the productive forces, if not fettered by increasingly-criminal means, causes obliteration of the capital-value of legacy fixed capital means of production, and of the bank loans by which that fixed capital was purchased, the resulting write-offs destroying profitability.

 

In response, that ruling faction, through a sequence of ever-deepening self-degenerations – from “Social Darwinism” to “Eugenics” to funding Fascism, to de-industrializing what became their “Third World”, to “Small is Beautiful”, to “Limits to Growth”, “Zero [i.e., negative] Economic Growth”, to “Zero [i.e., negative] Population Growth”, to global ‘humanocide’ via “Global Warming” Austerity/de-industrialization – became, at length, the present ruling faction, now under severe threat by the pro-productive-forces Trump Faction: the ‘humanocidal-maniacal’, “people are pollution”, “95% human population reduction”, Dr. Strangeloves’ faction, that we call the ‘Rocke-Nazis’.

 

In modern capitalist society, scientists are abjectly dependent for the continuation of their work – for their very survival as scientists – upon their funding by the capitalist ruling class, and by the governmental, taxpayer funding that the capitalist ruling class controls.

 

Per force, the “mood” of the capitalist ruling class “rubs off” on scientists, and scientists who do not go along with promoting the ideologies that this ruling class ‘psycho-engineers’, are defunded, or worse.

 

And the Rocke-Nazi’s ‘Doomist” ideology, perverting real science, is yet another of the myriad ways by which the ‘Rocke-Nazis’ are striving to demoralize you, to depress you, and, they hope, to drive you to suicide, with their prostitute mass media delivering nothing but bad news, ever-worsening, 24/7, as part of the Rocke-Nazis’ ‘Stealth Humanocide’ Pogrom, since they are not in a position to impose overt ‘humanocide’, just yet, although Anthony “Dr. Mega-Mengele” Fauci’s “gain of function” COVID global pandemic, as a dress rehearsal, came close.

Misleading Metaphor

 

for

 

Dialectical-Categorial

 

Opposition.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dear Reader,

 

The traditional use of the term “contradiction”, e.g., in the Hegelian and Marxian traditions, to describe or name, e.g.,  the dialectical opposition between a pair of ontological categories is often a uselessly misleading trope.

 

It tends to foster a confusion between formal-logical propositional contradiction/mutual formal negation, and/versus ontological, dialectical-categorial, qualitative polarity/mutual ‘supplementary opposition’, which involves ‘‘‘«aufheben» negation’’’.

 

Better terms for this relation of dialectical-ontological-categorial ‘supplementary opposition’ might include ‘intra-duality’, ‘self-duality’, ‘self-antithesis’, ‘internal duality’ or ‘endo-duality’, all of which still sound somewhat ‘statical’.

 

More exotic descriptions, some with more dynamical connotations, might include ‘intra-contra-kinesis’, ‘intra-dia-kinesis’, ‘endo-duo-kinesis’, ‘intra-contra-dynamis’, or, Marx’s, “internally self-ravaged ground”.

 

Of course, in certain cases, it might be useful to express the relation between two dialectical-ontological ‘contra-categories’ via a propositional contradiction, if the misleading potential of such expression can be explicitly warned-against.

 

Also, categorial oppositions can sometimes be well-‘‘‘translated’’’ by propositional contradictions.

 

Likewise, propositional contradictions can sometimes be well-‘‘‘translated’’’ by categorial oppositions, with gain of insight as to the resolution of the contradiction.

 

For example, the Kantian propositional antinomy of physical space, via two, mutually-negating, contradictory propositions, e.g. –

 

‘‘‘Space must be infinite and unbounded.’’’

 

versus

 

‘‘‘Space must be finite and bounded.’’’

 

– can lead, categorially, to Einstein’s, General-Relativistic solution of that antinomy, for “positively-curved” [re-contracting] and “negatively-curved” [continually-expanding] models of physical space alike, via the dialectical triad of categories –

 

finite & bounded space-models

~Å~

infinite & unbounded space-models

~Å~

finite & UNbounded curved-space models

 

 

– with the third category, the ‘uni-category’, of that triad representing the ‘dialectical synthesis category’ for the Kantian antinomy [propositional “ultra” contradiction] of our intuitive notions of physical space.

 

Conversely, for example, the ‘intra-duality’ of the industrial capital-relation as predominant social relation of social reproduction – i.e., capital as “self-expanding value” [Marx] versus capital as ‘self-contracting value’ [Seldon: due to capital’s self-driven – productive-force-growth-driven –technological obsolescence self-devaluation] can be expressed as a propositional contradiction –

 

 The capitalist system [only] EXPANDS capital-value.

 

versus

 

The capitalist system [only] CONTRACTS capital-value.

Engels: “The Production and Reproduction of Real Life”.

 

 

                             

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Engels:

 

“The Production

 

and

 

Reproduction

 

of

 

Real Life”.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dear Reader,

 

Frederick Engels wrote the following, in a 21 September 1890 letter, from London, England, to J. Bloch, in Konigsberg, Germany:

 

“According to the materialist conception of history, the ultimately determining element in history is the production and reproduction of real life.  Other than this neither Marx nor I have ever asserted.  Hence if somebody twists this into saying that the economic element is the only determining one, he transforms that proposition into a meaningless, abstract, senseless phrase.” [Paul Blackledge, Friedrich Engels and Modern Social and Political Theory, SUNY Press, Albany, NY, 2019, p. 168, emphasis added by M.D.].

 

This statement not only refutes the ideology of ‘‘‘economy- determinism”’.

 

Whether consciously, intentionally or not, on the part of Engels at the time, this formulation also opens a door to Darwin’s work, and to its immanently-critical dialectical extension – and both Marx and Engels were critical students of Darwin’s work – to its extension to what we call the ‘Meta-Darwinian concept’ of human-social, human-species collective fitness.

 

This is because, once we overcome the fog of the false analogy between “artificial selection” – human agents’ domestication, via selective breeding, of the “social animals”, internalized into human ‘meta-social’ societies – and “natural selection”, as if Nature or the God behind Nature consciously picks favorites in biological evolution, it becomes plain that reproduction, and reproduction rates, are the key to fitness in biological evolution, and beyond, e.g., in human social evolution and ‘meta-evolution’ as well.

 

The measure of biological species fitness is the sustained rate of reproduction of their biomass.  Higher sustained biomass reproduction rates indicate higher fitness.

 

Likewise, higher sustained rates of human ‘socio-mass’ self-reproduction indicate higher human species fitness.

 

But here is a key part of what puts the “Meta” in the ‘Meta-Darwinian Hypothesis’.  Human social individuals are not provided, by their genome, with a fixed tool-kit – e.g., with a particular configuration of beak and/or of claw.  On the contrary, the human genome provide us with open hands, that can put down one tool and pick up another, and with a capability for continual learning of new behaviors, new activities, new social praxis.

 

Thus, the human ‘socio-mass’ level and rate-of-expansion must take account of, not just the ‘population socio-mass’, the mass of living human bodies, but also the ‘socio-mass’ of human-Nature-made artifacts of all kinds, that humans add to Nature, and whose use can increase the total ‘socio-mass’ of the human species at an accelerating rate. 

 

This ‘Meta-Darwinian Fitness’ of the human species, as expressed in the generally exponential growth of ‘human socio-mass’ throughout our species known history, can increase dramatically, and does increase dramatically.

 

This accelerating advance of this ‘human-social fitness’ is not the product of the human genome alone.

 

It is also the product of human culture and of human cultural evolution and revolution [‘meta-evolution’], i.e., the product of the ‘‘‘human phenome’’’ as well.

 

In summary, it is the product of the evolving and also ‘meta-evolving’ dialectical synthesis, which is the human phenome/human genome “complex unity”.  It is not based upon, or coded-in, our chromosomes alone.

 

And the core of that sustained accelerating rate of ‘human socio-mass self-reproduction’ – of that ‘Meta-Darwinian Fitness’ of the human species – is what Marx called, critically appropriating/‘«aufheben»-ating’ a concept from the ideology-vitiated science of capitalist “political-economy”, “the growth of the social forces of production”; of what we rename, and reconceptualize as, ‘the human-societal self-force of expanding human-social self-reproduction’, i.e., ultimately, the ‘self-productivity of humanity’.
