SN1631: Detaching Humanity, Hospitalization Horrors & Alien Agreements ⚠️

competent.

And if you're evil, you're not bad.

And therefore, maybe you're actually kind of good because you're at least getting something done.

If you contrast the Faust books of Marlow versus Goethe, in Marlow's Faust, that was the 16th century Faust story, Faust is a fake scientist.

He's sort of like a magician, sort of a fake alchemist, and it's bad science.

and he goes straight to hell.

In Goethe's Faust, he has a pact with the devil, and he sort of gets his knowledge by morally dubious means.

But it always, it still always, you know, works out more for the best.

And Goethe's Faust, gets redeemed.

So I think it's better to be good than evil.

I want to be very clear.

But perhaps...

I prefer Goethe's Faust to Marlowe's Faust.

And then the moral question in our society is, We have all these good versus evil debates and we're just, we're full of badness.

It's most of the time, those things are not, they're not even evil.

They're not even good.

They're just merely bad.

And so if you're in a world where 99% of the businesses, companies, people, political leaders, business leaders are totally incompetent.

Yeah.

So it's crazy that you've got people like Peter Thiel saying that, Or at least trying to come up with justification to be evil.

Like, think of the psychology.

Think about the mental hoops this man just had to jump through to justify saying, well, you know, being evil is not that bad.

And if I had to be anybody, I'd be this type of Faustian character.

I would do the deal with the devil.

I've got no problem doing the deal with the devil because, well, it ultimately ends up for good, right? Well, for who's good, Peter? You see, this is the satanic, inversionist, technocratic mindset that we're dealing with.
