video did not find interesting (because I think it is really useless aka. without appearent practical application), but you calling everything bullshit and crap (with context of other posts) I found disturbing.

Now I just seen this fresh new article "Terminal Cynicism" which fits this to some degree I think cognition.cafe/p/terminal-cyni…

I like writings and other work of this author.

Abstract Idealists are constantly disappointed by the real world. They compare the real world to their Ideal one, and feel it is never enough.

All the dirty systems that are necessary in our real world are unneeded in theirs. In the real world, we need ways to deal with our irreconcilable disagreements, our sociopaths, our vices, our traumas and our terrible mistakes. So we have armies, police forces, and prisons.

But to an Abstract Idealist, these are warts and blemishes that must be eliminated.

In the real world, we face so many problems. We are not all as moral, productive or smart as each other; we must triage between the sick, the elderly, workers and children; we are not infinitely altruistic; we have little self-discipline and self-awareness; and so on and so forth.

These problems are far from being solved. The solutions we have collectively come up so far are all imperfect. Markets, states, psychology, social norms, culture, philosophies and religions.

These solutions may look good to us, because we imagine what our world would look like without them. But to an Abstract Idealist, they look utterly terrible. In their world, there never is anything so impure.

It may sound strange, but I view this type of art as a fantasy.

It posits that The System is independent of people, that people have no agency over their fate, and thus that The System’s inability to make people feel happy is unfair. It considers that people deserve happiness by default.

That’s the fantasy. That we are all innocent, and that The System is doing this to us.

In reality though, The System is us. We are the ones currently failing to build ourselves a better life, despite centuries of technological improvements.

[...]

Reconciling our reality with the fantasy takes vision. One must come up with a world where people are both agents and subjects of The System. In this fantasy, through their action, people would improve The System and thus their lives.

This requires far more creativity and understanding of the world than coming up with “lore”. Any creative artist can come up with a new species of humans with 4 arms, blue skin, supernatural abilities, a different language, or whatever change that doesn’t suggest anything interesting for The System.

This lack of vision leads to the “We live in a Society” syndrome
