Kojeve is just so clever, he salvages the entirety of ridiculous metaphysics about "the soul" by saying: "Ah yes, the soul, that is Nothing, this is very important too, that it is Nothing. Only Humans have souls because only Humans give voice to the Nothingness that is Death."
Yes yes, God, the Soul... all of this is Nothing. But this does not mean "a trivial thing"-- but a very serious thing! Nothing is more important than Everything! Everything is just a bunch of stuff-- it's just "matter" & nature & objects-- but Nothing! There is Nothing like it!
For so long people are confused thinking the soul is "something"-- but it's actually nothing-- & that's what animals lack-- they lack an insight into Nothingness-- that's what distinguishes Man from Everything.

Our principles of operation are:
(1) Attack dispersed isolated enemy forces first; attack concentrated strong enemy forces later.
(2) Take small and medium cities and extensive rural areas first; take big cities later.
(3) Make wiping out the enemy's effective strength our main objective; do not make holding or seizing a city or place our main objective. Holding or seizing a city or place is the outcome of wiping out the enemy's effective strength, and
often a city or place can be held or seized for good only after it has changed hands a number of times.
(4) In every battle, concentrate an absolutely superior force (two, three, four and sometimes even five or six times the enemy's strength),

After this post went viral, I called Caroline Groves, a world-class bespoke shoemaker, to discuss how women's shoes are made. I normally don't talk about womenswear, but I found the information interesting, so I thought I would share what I learned here. ๐Ÿงต
First, who is Caroline Groves?

Footwear is broadly broken into two categories: bespoke and ready-to-wear. In London, bespoke makers, including those for women, are largely focused on traditional styles, such as wingtip derbies and loafers. Emiko Matsuda is great for this. Image

In Paris, there's Massaro, a historic firm that has been operating since 1894, now owned by Chanel. Their designs are less about creating the women's equivalent of traditional men's footwear and more about things such as heels or creative styles. Aesthetic is still "traditional." Image

Very funny how recent (wealthy) immigrants to Americaโ€™s kids have two options โ€œgatekeep white/black cultureโ€ โ€” they either end up LARPing like theyโ€™re Oblock Hoodrats or talking about True Aryan Hyperborea.
The Somali in Minnesota isnโ€™t pretending to be from Aggartha or running a Kendrick stan account. Makes you think.
Ironically the attempt to โ€œassimilateโ€ is the most jarring optionโ€” the immigrants who just โ€œare themselvesโ€ seem to fit in better by acknowledging the difference, itโ€™s like โ€œsuburban pakistani whose parents are surgeonsโ€ who truly sticks out for not belonging anywhere.

1/ ๐ŸงตPfizerโ€™s new mRNA flu trial quietly revealed the problem they canโ€™t quite admit....

Itโ€™s not the spike. Itโ€™s the platform. It's the LNPs.
What did the data show?
nejm.org/doi/full/10.10โ€ฆ
2/Pfizerโ€™s mRNA flu vaccine = same tech as COVID shots, just a new mRNA coding for the FLU antigen.
So what happened?
Strong fevers, swollen nodes, fatigue, pain which was identical to the COVID pattern.
Same signature, but NO SPIKE PROTEIN.
Does that mean the toxic driver is the lipid nanoparticle (LNP) system itself?
3/ Even worse: in the >65 year-old trial dataset (quietly posted on , no press release)โ€ฆ
Thereโ€™s an important renal (kidney) signal.
Serious kidney adverse events in healthy seniors who were screened to exclude any chronic issues including kidney impairment.

Kojeve came to the same conclusion that Iโ€™ve come to (I only learned this in the new Groys book) that after the collapse of Capitalism (WW1) America โ€œrebuilt capitalismโ€ in the form of bourgeois socialism, as in, they used โ€œmarxistโ€ critiques of Marxism Leninism to produce our state.
Bourgeois Socialism is โ€œthe welfare stateโ€โ€” they are the same thing.

Mastic gum literally RELIEVES acid reflux

constant heartburn? burping after meals? acid in your throat?

that's GERD - and it's:
- burning through your esophageal lining
- ruining your sleep every single night
- getting worse every time you eat

in one study, 350mg of mastic gum 3x daily for 3 weeks improved symptoms in 77% of participants - without changing diet

that's INSANE

heartburn eases, stomach pain disappears, and you can finally eat without discomfort.

and that's not all... it also kills H. pylori bacteria AND heals your gut lining.

๐Ÿงต here's the exact protocol (and 3 mistakes to avoid):Image
Image
here's what most people don't realize:

GERD isn't always "too much acid." it's often H. pylori infection weakening your stomach's protective barrier.

that bacteria can live in your stomach for YEARS - damaging the mucosa that should protect you from acid.

PPIs just reduce acid production. they don't address the bacterial infection that may be causing the damage.
mastic gum is a resin from the Pistacia lentiscus tree on the Greek island of Chios.

it's been used for 2,500+ years for stomach issues.

but here's what makes it different from antacids:

it doesn't just suppress acid. it KILLS the H. pylori bacteria at the source AND repairs the damage they've caused.
