@xianc78 ah okay. So Anti-Civs reject both civilisation and technology (some cases farming as well), whereas Post-Civs seek to deconstruct the binary opposition between technology and ecology. Post-Civs wish to separate technology from civilisation (modern, globalist urban-industrial society).
A game that closely resembles an aspect of Post-Civ is Horizon Zero Dawn.
Variants of Post Civ thought include: Primitive-Transhumanism, Techno Agrarianism, Techno Gaianism, Archeo-Futurism.
Variants of Anti-Civ: Primal Primitivism, Anarcho Primitivism, Luddism, Neo-luddism
@thatguyoverthere@Hyolobrika yea. the town is on top of a hill, though south-side needs more work on that creek. Dont want a repeat of last year and 2017 when we got flooded
@thatguyoverthere been constructing a stone line and bund, to mitigate erosion. When it rains, it turns into an actual stream, I'll be sure to take another pic when that does happen again
@Indigo ideology and "anarchism" are both spooked anyway :blobcatgoogly: so what, are u like a ethical egoist and metaphysical solipsist or something? damn, guess I am just a figment of indigo's imagination all along
@Indigo there is more nuances on "want" and "ability/resources ".
One of my quarrels with industrialism is the mass production of housing or "property development". The big backyards that were once so prominent here in every city is dead. Not because less land was being distributed, but because houses are getting much bigger. I dont want a big house, a tiny house is perfect for me. Stirner,Thoreau and Emerson made the point that property is a responsibility, the bigger the house, the more you have to clean and maintain. Ofc the docile and apathetic normies will be conditioned to hold sacred "more is more". But who tf honestly wants to spend the rest of their life paying off an unnecessary debt, for a house they didnt build themselves, cleaning it up longer than desired. Insanity.
@Indigo I am basically cyborg kazcynski at this point :blobcatjoy: "Unauthorised logging and tilling alert. EXTERMINATE!"
>"A lot of people want to pin that on Capitalism" Agreed, but the socialists too can be greedy, with their maximalist apartment blocks. All ideologues have failed to address the problem with urban-industrial civilisation, which renders all of their theory null and void... unlike uncle ted and the egoists, but yeah. The machiavellians do make the point will we get nothing but greed from above, no matter what ideology they hide behind, so we should have envy from below instead of sentimentality. I agree, but disagree with envy. Envy is ignorance, what u want is anger, a real fire in your belly.
@Indigo 3rd one does look pree cool ngl i like these too
I can just imagine... techno-primmies scavaging from the ruins of the old cities, tech-agrarians like from the wild west but on biodiesel tractors, micro cities, sea steads, cyborg hermits protecting endangered forests etc all these different societies
"The human religion is only the final metamorphosis of the Christian religion. Because liberalism is a religion since it separates my essence from me and sets it above me, since it exalts “humanity” to the same extent that some other religion would its God or idol, since it makes what is mine other-worldly, since it generally makes out of what is mine, out of my qualities and my property, something alien, namely an “essence”; in short, since it places me beneath the human and thereby creates a calling for me. But liberalism also declares itself a religion in form when it demands for this highest essence, humanity, a religious zeal, “a faith that will finally also prove its fiery zeal, a zeal that will be invincible.”[190] Since liberalism is a human religion, those who profess it act with tolerance toward those who profess another (Catholic, Jewish, etc.), as Frederick the Great did toward anyone who performed his duties as a subject, whatever fashion of being blessed he might prefer. This religion is now to be elevated to the universal, commonly used one, and be separated from the others as mere “private follies,” toward which, by the way, one acts very liberally because they are so insignificant. " The Unique and Its Property, pg 189
@ArdainianRight Even if there was a mind-independent world of perfect forms beyond our sensory perception, how do we have any access to it beyond empirical means??
@thatguyoverthere Yeah, been doin a bit of sowing as the winter rains are coming in. Growing chickpeas next to the leafy greens, hopefully the lettuce should do well this year as i have been workin hard laying out sheep manure tryna break the nutrient-poor, heavy clay soils.
