The deal with New Age, in a nutshell
New Age, neopaganism, and witchcraft are neither synonymous nor mutually inclusive. Anyone who says they are either hasn’t done their research, or is lying to you.
New Age comes from Theosophy, a movement started by Helena Blavatsky, a white woman whose mission was ostensibly to seek out the perennial philosophy in the world’s religions. However, plenty of evidence points to Blavatsky being less than honest.
Helena Blavatsky was racist as fuck. She presumed to know what the traditions of non-white people were about better than they did themselves. She also wasn’t shy about referring to POC as s*v*ges. Some of her fans claim that she wasn’t actually racist because she had positive things to say about some POC, but she was basically painting them as pure and uncorrupted by civilization, so... still racist.
She was also into that gender essentialism that TERFs love oh so much - for example, she claimed that the goats of Thor’s chariot represented male power, while the reins that held them in place represented the female principle. Because, you know, women are passive yet restrain men from running absolutely wild.
Seriously if you have any doubt that this woman’s mind was full of rancid garbage, just flip through Isis Unveiled and The Secret Doctrine for yourself; they’re literally free online.
The term “New Age” refers to what Helena Blavatsky called the Fifth Round (supposedly, we’re currently in the Fourth Round). Basically she believed that humanity is on a path of spiritual evolution, and that we’re about to enter a new phase in our evolution. This right here is the core tenet of New Age belief.
Entering the Fifth Round basically entails most of humanity dying off, leaving behind those enlightened (particularly by Blavatsky’s teachings) enough to become the fifth root race; IE, the progenitors of the next wave of humanity.
This is literally spiritual eugenics.
Helena Blavatsky didn’t invent Nazism but boy howdy did Nazis love her ideas, which should tell you a lot about what she peddled.
Like any other religious movement, New Age has evolved over time and not all members believe the exact same things. However, they pretty much all believe that getting on the spiritual evolution train means following their practices and subscribing to their beliefs.
Modern New Agers still perpetuate colonialism by presuming to understand what other people’s religious traditions are about better than they do.
Modern New Agers are huge fans of the ancient aliens hypothesis, which has always been racist bullshit.
So yeah, it’s still spiritual eugenics, and it’s still racist as hell.
They are constantly spiritualizing health conditions. Like being tired and sad all the time is supposedly an “ascension symptom.” Tinnitus is supposedly the universe trying to communicate with you. Symptoms of autism and ADHD supposedly mean you’re a starseed, indigo child, crystal child, or whatever else.
Starseeds, supposedly, are alien beings who have incarnated into human bodies in order to help Earth ascend by spreading New Age teachings. Basically, they’re missionaries from space.
New Agers claim starseeds were attested in many ancient traditions (especially Egyptian and Mesoamerican), but not a single one of them can produce a single scrap of evidence to substantiate this. (Literally the oldest text I’ve ever been able to locate that contains anything resembling a starseed is The Martian, an 1898 fiction novel.)
See how the racism just keeps compounding?
New Age is deeply tied into right wing conspiracy theories. The New Age to alt right pipeline is well-documented phenomena.
New Agers push spiritual bypassing and toxic positivity like whoa nelly. Some of them are worse about it than others, but it’s an extremely common thing.
A lot of them believe in what’s in The Emerald Tablets of Thoth the Atlantean (not to be confused with The Emerald Tablet), a text that popped up in the early 20th century and claims a guy from Atlantis took over Egypt and taught them Atlantean spirituality. (This is very much in contradiction to what Plato said about Atlantis and Egypt, btw.)
New Agers are deeply into the Law of Attraction, which derives from New Thought, which is basically what happens when a bunch of rich fucks who don’t understand economics decide to spiritualize wealth.
And of course, there are the SCAMS. New Age is absolutely rife with scams, from people selling chunks of glass as powerful crystals for hundreds of dollars (the so-called “Andara crystals”), to people claiming to have “ancient wisdom” or “Native wisdom” they just made up, to all kinds of medical scams.
So yeah, no, there’s no good reason to respect New Age beliefs, because they are rancid.

The End of the World or the End of Capitalism?: Colletion of Notes.
>"Capitalist realism as I understand it cannot be confined to art or to the quasi-propagandistic way in which advertising functions. It is more like a pervasive atmosphere, conditioning not only the production of culture but also the regulation of work and education, and acting as a kind of invisible barrier constraining thought and action". -Mark Fisher, Capitalist Realism: Is There No Alternative? >[Capital] has drowned the most heavenly ecstasies of religious fervor, of chivalrous enthusiasm, of philistine sentimentalism, in the icy water of egotistical calculation. It has resolved personal worth into exchange value, and in place of the numberless indefeasible chartered freedoms, has set up that single, unconscionable freedom Free Trade. In one word, for exploitation, veiled by religious and political illusions, it has substituted naked, shameless, direct, brutal exploitation -Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, Manifest der Kommunistischen Partei.
>"In his Prison Notebooks, Gramsci said that in periods of crisis the old is dying and the new is not yet born. While Gramsci drew attention to the morbid symptoms of such a situation (in 1930) our crisis is different, and I want to draw attention to more hopeful symptoms (waiting to be born) of our present crisis of capitalist hegemony. The viability of initiatives trying to avoid competition with the market and escape from the hierarchic state rests on many untested assumptions. The first assumption is that those who do essential day-to-day tasks would continue to do their jobs in a PCC in preference to large corporations and their local affiliates: a multitude of people who now work in private or public sectors, directly or indirectly, establishing PCCs in their local communities producing food, organizing transport, setting up places of learning and transmission of skills, providing healthcare, running power systems, and so on. PCCs already do this all over the world on a small scale but such initiatives struggle within capitalist markets. Community-Supported Agriculture schemes in various parts of the world represent a first step on a long and difficult road to self-sufficiency in this sphere". - Leslie Sklair, The End of the World or the End of Capitalism? >"In 1869, New York neurologist George Beard used the term "neurasthenia" to describe a very broad condition caused by the exhaustion of the nervous system, which was thought to be particularly found in "civilized, intellectual communities." In 1998, Swedish psychiatrists Marie Åsberg and Åke Nygren investigated a surge of depression health insurance claims in Sweden. They found that the symptoms of many cases did not match the typical presentation of depression. Complaints like fatigue and decreased cognitive ability dominated, and many believed their working conditions to be the cause" >"The whole life of those societies in which modern conditions of production prevail presents itself as an immense accumulation of spectacles. All that once was directly lived has become mere representation".  -Guy Debord, The Society of the Spectacle. >"Architecture is the simplest means of articulating time and space, of modulating reality, of engendering dreams. It is a matter not only of plastic articulation and modulation expressing an ephemeral beauty, but of a modulation producing influences in accordance with the eternal spectrum of human desires and the progress in realizing them. The architecture of tomorrow will be a means of modifying present conceptions of time and space. It will be a means of knowledge and a means of action." -Ivan Chtcheglov, Formulary for a New Urbanism
>"To you, this gathering is just one more boring event. The Situationist International, however, considers that while this assemblage of so many art critics as an attraction of the Brussels Fair is laughable, it is also significant.
Inasmuch as modern cultural thought has proved itself completely stagnant for over twenty-five years, and inasmuch as a whole era that has understood nothing and changed nothing is now becoming aware of its failure, its spokesmen are striving to transform their activities into institutions. They thus solicit official recognition from the completely outmoded but still materially dominant society, for which most of them have been loyal watchdogs.
The main shortcoming of modern art criticism is that it has never looked at the culture as a whole nor at the conditions of an experimental movement that is perpetually superseding it. At this point in time the increased domination of nature permits and necessitates the use of superior powers in the construction of life." -The Situationist International, Action in Belgium Against the International Assembly of Art Critics >"Karoshi (Japanese: 過労死, Hepburn: Karōshi), which can be translated into "overwork death", is a Japanese term relating to occupation-related sudden death.
The most common medical causes of karoshi deaths are heart attacks and strokes due to stress and malnourishment or fasting. Mental stress from the workplace can also cause workers to commit suicide in a phenomenon known as karōjisatsu (過労自殺)" >"The limits of capitalism are not fixed by fiat, but defined (and redefined) pragmatically and improvisationally. This makes capitalism very much like the Thing in John Carpenter's film of the same name: a monstrous, infinitely plastic entity, capable of metabolizing and absorbing anything with which it comes into contact. Capital, Deleuze and Guattari says, is a ‘motley painting of everything that ever was'; a strange hybrid of the ultra-modern and the archaic. In the years since Deleuze and Guattari wrote the two volumes of their Capitalism And Schizophrenia, it has seemed as if the deterritorializing impulses of capitalism have been confined to finance, leaving culture presided over by the forces of reterritorialization.
This malaise, the feeling that there is nothing new, is itself nothing new of course. We find ourselves at the notorious ‘end of history' trumpeted by Francis Fukuyama after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Fukuyama's thesis that history has climaxed with liberal capitalism may have been widely derided, but it is accepted, even assumed, at the level of the cultural unconscious. It should be remembered, though, that even when Fukuyama advanced it, the idea that history had reached a ‘terminal beach' was not merely triumphalist. Fukuyama warned that his radiant city would be haunted, but he thought its specters would be Nietzschean rather than Marxian. Some of Nietzsche's most prescient pages are those in which he describes the ‘oversaturation of an age with history'. ‘It leads an age into a dangerous mood of irony in regard to itself, he wrote in Untimely Meditations, ‘and subsequently into the even more dangerous mood of cynicism', in which ‘cosmopolitan fingering', a detached spectatorialism, replaces engagement and involvement. This is the condition of Nietzsche's Last Man, who has seen everything, but is decadently enfeebled precisely by this excess of (self) awareness." -Mark Fisher, Capitalist Realism: Is There No Alternative?
>The Socialist Patients' Collective (German: Sozialistisches Patientenkollektiv, and known as the SPK) is a patients' collective founded in Heidelberg, West Germany, in February 1970, by Wolfgang Huber (born 1935). The kernel of the SPK's ideological program is summated in the slogan, "Turn illness into a weapon", which is representative of an ethos that is continually and actively practiced under the new title, Patients' Front/Socialist Patients' Collective, PF/SPK(H). The first collective, SPK, declared its self-dissolution in July 1971 as a strategic withdrawal but in 1973 Huber proclaimed the continuity of SPK as Patients' Front.
The SPK assumes that illness exists as an undeniable fact and believe that it is caused by the capitalist system. The SPK promotes illness as the protest against capitalism and considers illness as the foundation on which to create the human species. The SPK is opposed to doctors, considering them to be the ruling class of capitalism and responsible for poisoning the human species. The most widely recognized text of the PF/SPK(H) is the communique, SPK – Turn illness into a weapon, which has prefaces by both the founder of the SPK, Wolfgang Huber, and Jean-Paul Sartre. Rejecting the roles and ideology associated with the notion of the revolutionary as scientific explainer, they stated in Turn Illness into a Weapon that whoever claims they want to "observe the bare facts dispassionately" is either an "idiot" or a "dangerous criminal."

I've been pondering if I should send this question in for a while now but I just gotta know.
Did they evolve to be anime? Now I know what ur thinking "Anon wtf do you mean?" let me explain.
So, we see all the statues of the great 7, right? And all of the statues and portraits of them are just them. they look exactly the same as they do in their movies, all cartoony like. But don't you think it's weird how no one has commented on their appearance being all cartoonish? The twst universe is filled with handsome anime men. they're around every corner. And you can probably tell that they look nothing like the great 7, all considerably different.
So the theory I purpose is: What if, way back when, everyone DID look cartoonish back in the olden days, but as time went on, things changed about their appearance to look more anime. Why? idk man.
How do beastmen fit into this since evolution takes a while especially if it's an animal becoming more human-like? Maybe beastmen evolved after the anime switch-up.
This is worded really badly so I'm sorry if you don't understand what I'm saying, this is just my crack theory. Have a nice day!
Tumblr media
Well, it’s definitely the first time I’ve heard of such a theory, even if it’s just a crack (not meant to be taken seriously) theory 🤔 (Us TWST fans really will analyze anything down to the smallest detail or atom, lol)
It’s an interesting concept, but that’s not really how evolution works. Random traits don’t evolve and appear in a large population “just because”. The environment “selects” for the traits which are best suited for survival in particular conditions, and then those surviving organisms are able to pass that beneficial trait onto their offspring. I… don’t see the evolutionary advantages to characters “turning anime” over time. (I’m not counting the point “more physically attractive people have a leg up in finding a partner(s)” because 1) humans are capable of non-physical attraction, and 2) the variation among anime traits is too high (example: all the bright colored hair despite environments in Twisted Wonderland highly varying) for everyone to coincidentally all converge in the same style; there would theoretically still be a handful of people walking around in the “old” style).
For such drastic changes to occur, it would probably also take an extraordinary amount of time, which doesn’t line up with the technological advances we see in the Disney classics versus modern Twisted Wonderland. All of the stories of the G7 took place at least at a time with primitive inventions like wheels and fire, which were used estimated to have first been discovered ~5000 and 200,000-50,000 years ago, respectively. Assuming the course of history is similar to our world, the earliest possible time for the G7 stories to have been set is around then (and that’s being very generous). But then consider that some traits take millions of years to appear and/or disappear. Many people, for example, get appendicitis because the appendix, which has been estimated to have been in various animals for ~80 million years, is still in their bodies despite no longer serving a clear function (at least not in humans). Modern TWST has tech like smartphones and touch screen tables, so that’d be similar to the 21st century for us irl; in the (relatively) short time span of thousands of years to 2023ish, I don’t think that would be nearly enough time to essentially completely change an entire race’s look (ie their “style”). Major changes take millions and millions of years to come into fruition. It’s true that mutations can occur! However, they are rarely so largely noticed (most of them end up getting corrected by the genes themselves) or are so atomically beneficial that it ends up dominating an entire group. (Note: it is stated in canon that beastmen evolved from actual animals and that Malleus has ancestors who were actual dragons, but that’s basically all the lore we have in regards to evolution.)
The G7 looking different from the TWST characters is the result of the classic Disney style differing greatly from Yana Toboso’s style (ie meta outside of the actual world of the game). No characters find this discrepancy odd because, in all likelihood, the styles don’t appear different to them in-universe. The G7 probably just have a variety of facial features and body types that differentiate them from the average student or staff member at NRC. For example, the Beautiful Queen and Thorn Witch have slender bodies (which are most anatomically similar to the TWST characters) but sharper eyes, the Sea Witch is plump, the Queen of Hearts has a rotund body and nose, the King of Beasts and Sorcerer of the Sands are lanky, and the Lord of the Underworld has more angular facial features. Variation like this also exists in real life.
We the players only notice the cartoonishness vs the anime look because we are omniscient third parties. Our stand-in for the TWST world, Yuu, does not take note of, nor ever comment on, this style difference that the irl players do. If the G7 did look very weirdly different from everyone else, you’d think Grim would make a cheeky comment about it or Yuu would point it out—but they don’t. Therefore, I can only come to the conclusion that in the eyes of everyone in TWST, the G7 are just regular ass looking people rather than individuals who look stylistically out of place. If you think about it, Mickey Mouse also appears to have an extremely differently style than the TWST characters and is actually a character we meet face-to-face; he has no shading at all and looks flat to us (the players), yet Yuu, Grim, and others still never comment about that or why he can stand and walk despite lookin 2D. They are focused on his relation to Yuu rather than on his appearance. This supports the idea that, in the eyes of the characters IN Twisted Wonderland, Disney characters may not be registered in that stylistic difference. They must look like they “belong” in that world, and thus in the same style as the TWST characters (from their perspective, NOT the players’ perspective).
Something else to consider is that we haven’t (or rather, can’t) met the G7 in person. All the instances of them we’ve seen are portraits in Crowley’s office and the statues on Main Street—in other words, works of art. Who is to say that these legendary historical figures are accurately depicted? Even if they consistently look the same across depictions, it could just be that most artists collectively agreed “yup, based on what we know of history… they must look like this”. Alternatively, these (“Disney style”) depictions of the G7 could be the result of a popular artist movement or style present at the time period(s) in which the seven were at their prime. Again, these points are all also true of real life instances of artworks featuring important figures.

why do anons and commenters keep taking your posts about practical indigenous knowledge of their own land and connect it to being "morally pure." where is that association coming from. if i were transplanted to another continent like europe, i wouldnt know the local ecology or how to responsibly manage the land there. that doesnt make the local europeans more morally pure than me??? just because a civilization knows the land they live on doesn't mean they don't pillage and murder and extort and oppress? which is true for indigenous and colonizer cultures around the world and has NO BEARING on the conversation! this is such a strange bent to the argument that has nothing at all to do with basic land stewardship??? they're so quick to accuse you of racism and then either uwuify or belittle indigenous people, or both at once, to disagree with a stranger on the internet
I think they're trying to connect it to the "noble savage" stereotype where Native Americans are like spiritually in tune with nature because they're indigenous. Which is racist bullshit, but it isn't where the "give native peoples control of their lands" is coming from.
As I said before, I can't teach a whole college course in a post and I refuse to do so, but research really has shown that indigenous land management practices actually...are really helpful for finding out what we should be doing. And the reason is that passed-down cultural wisdom is the accumulated observations of generation after generation of people that lived in the same ecosystem, and they were passed down because they were literally essential to people's survival.
It is a form of science, even if it's not formally written down. Nature runs on reliable rhythms and patterns, but it is constantly varying conditions all the time, allowing for the same type of scientific reasoning that happens when scientists adjust variables in a lab. Nature repeats the same processes (summer, birthing of fawns, full moons) under different conditions (drought, flooding, sickness in the elk herd) constantly. And to survive, humans have had to observe.
When trees make seeds, those seeds get everywhere. The seeds are exactly the same, but some fall in the shade and some in the sun, some in dry conditions and some in wet. It is easy to observe the kind of conditions that are most favorable, and to test and challenge that observation year after year, generation after generation.
So yeah, after a hundred generations or so of living on the same land, you end up having a pretty damn good understanding of what goes on and what things are connected to what, even if you don't know what a fungal spore is exactly or whatever.
Europeans have not been in the Americas for even a single lifespan of some of our trees. We don't really know how long many tree species live because our body of knowledge literally doesn't go back that far. That puts it in perspective, doesn't it? Our activity here has also been so ecologically disruptive that we haven't been able to observe the workings of a lot of ecosystems. That's still a big problem even with modern science—we don't know what it was like before we screwed things up.
But hey, you know what, there were people who lived here before us...I wonder if their descendants remember what their grandparents and great-grandparents and great-great-grandparents and so on were taught...

Understanding IHD with Data Science
Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD), more commonly recognized as coronary artery disease, is a profound health concern that stems from a decreased blood supply to the heart. Such a decrease is typically due to fatty deposits or plaques narrowing the coronary arteries. These arteries, as vital conduits delivering oxygen-rich blood to the heart, play a paramount role in ensuring the heart's efficient functioning. An obstruction or reduced flow within these arteries can usher in adverse outcomes, with heart attacks being the most dire. Given the gravity of IHD, the global medical community emphasizes the essence of early detection and prompt intervention to manage its repercussions effectively.
A New Age in Healthcare: Embracing Data Science
As we stand on the cusp of the fourth industrial revolution, technology's intertwining with every domain is evident. The healthcare sector is no exception. The integration of data science in healthcare is not merely an augmentation; it's a paradigm shift. Data science, with its vast array of tools and methodologies, is fostering new avenues to understand, diagnose, and even predict various health conditions long before they manifest pronounced symptoms.
Machine Learning: The Vanguard of Modern Medical Research
Among the myriad of tools under the vast umbrella of data science, Machine Learning (ML) shines exceptionally bright. An essential offshoot of artificial intelligence, ML capitalizes on algorithms and statistical models, granting computers the capability to process vast amounts of data and discern patterns without being explicitly programmed.
In the healthcare realm, the applications of ML are manifold. From predicting potential disease outbreaks based on global health data trends to optimizing patient flow in bustling hospitals, ML is progressively becoming a linchpin in medical operations. One of its most lauded applications, however, is its prowess in early disease prediction, and IHD detection stands as a testament to this.
Drawn to the immense potential ML holds, I ventured into a research project aimed at harnessing the RandomForestClassifier model's capabilities. Within the medical research sphere, this model is celebrated for its robustness and adaptability, making it a prime choice for my endeavor.
Deep Dive into the Findings
The results from the ML model were heartening. With an accuracy rate of 90%, the model’s prowess in discerning the presence of IHD based on an array of parameters was evident. Such a high accuracy rate is pivotal, considering the stakes at hand – the very health of a human heart. 9 times out of 10 the model is correct at its predictions.
Tumblr media
Breaking down the data, some correlations with IHD stood out prominently:
Moderate COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) – 15%: COPD's inclusion is noteworthy. While primarily a lung condition, its linkage with heart health has been a topic of numerous studies. A compromised respiratory system can inadvertently strain the heart, underscoring the interconnectedness of our bodily systems.
Diabetes – 18%: The correlation between diabetes and heart health isn't novel. Elevated blood sugar levels over extended periods can damage blood vessels, including the coronary arteries.
Age (segmented in quarterlies) – 15%: Age, as an immutable factor, plays a significant role. With age, several bodily systems gradually wear down, rendering individuals more susceptible to a plethora of conditions, IHD included.
Smoking habits – 14%: The deleterious effects of smoking on lung health are well-documented. However, its impact extends to the cardiovascular system, with nicotine and other chemicals adversely affecting heart functions.
MWT1 and MWT2 (indicators of physical endurance) – 13% and 14% respectively: Physical endurance and heart health share an intimate bond. These metrics, gauging one's physical stamina, can be precursors to potential heart-related anomalies.
Redefining Patient Care in the Machine Learning Era
Armed with these insights, healthcare can transcend its conventional boundaries. A deeper understanding of IHD's contributors empowers medical professionals to devise comprehensive care strategies that are both preventive and curative.
Moreover, the revelations from this study underscore the potential for proactive medical interventions. Instead of being reactive, waiting for symptoms to manifest, healthcare providers can now adopt a preventive stance. Patients exhibiting the highlighted risk factors can be placed under more meticulous observation, ensuring that potential IHD developments are nipped in the bud.
With the infusion of machine learning, healthcare is on the cusp of a personalized revolution. Gone are the days of one-size-fits-all medical approaches. Recognizing the uniqueness of each patient's health profile, machine learning models like the one employed in this study can pave the way for hyper-personalized care regimens.
As machine learning continues to entrench itself in healthcare, a future where disease predictions are accurate, interventions are timely, and patient care is unparalleled isn't merely a vision; it's an impending reality.

finally read that manifesto on egoism: The Right To Be Greedy, For Ourselves recced to me by an anarchist annoyed at the criticism directed at taylor swift.
i have to say egoism in that thesis is an intellectually vapid philosophy that feels indistinguishable from ayn rand. it also knows this and desperately pretends it's theoretical engagement is deeper, but it's not.
in it's inability to resolve the contradictions of individual desire and collective needs it concedes entirely to reactionaries: human beings are inherently selfish, and only being more selfish can defeat the harms of self serving behaviour. the key thesis is the kind of definitional sleight of hand you'd see in debate clubs. the kind of greed that doesn't serve everyone is actually narrow greed, not greedy enough. extra greedy behaviour is indistinguishable from altruism. on these grounds a shaky argument is built that is meant to dismiss climate change caused by extractivism and the lifestyles fuelled by it.
Narrow greed is a holdover from times of natural scarcity. Its desires are represented to itself in the form of commodities, power, sex(-objects), and even more abstractly, as money and as images.
then in the tradition of the worst of post leftism, it dismissed any attempt to construct ideology.
Ideology is the sublime hustle. The use-value of ideology is as a tool for exploitation — the ideologue uses ideology to con you into letting him put his egoism above yours, in the name of altruism, morality, and the “general interest.” Our winning back in a positive connotation of a word like “greed” or “selfishness” — the central, universal, and mutually agreed upon prejoratives of the two extreme representations of modern capitalism, private capitalist and state capitalist ideology, which try to confine the totality of possible opposition within the universe bounded by their polar pseudo-opposition — is such an act because it locates precisely the point of their essential unity, the exact point of departure for a revolutionary movement which, by breaking away there, simultaneously, identically, and singularly breaks with both.
yes, tell me how everyone acting in their perceived self interest will eventually build a perfect society. ofc the manifesto does not bother with engaging historically with the successes of such ideology being popularised in the water, as they are right now. "the other person is part of your wealth." this is the innovation that was all it takes to end capitalism. it's such a dismissal of the seriousness of the task at hand, such arrogance about the previous attempts to do such things.
simultaneously, like the worst of orthodox marxism, it makes claims about non western and tribal societies that cannot stand up to historical or anthropological scrutiny of any kind.
"Self-sacrifice is always Christian."
...
But man is only individualized through the process of history. He originally appears as a generic being, a tribal being, a herd animal — though by no means a “political animal” in the political sense. Exchange itself is a major agent of this individualization.
even the most basic understandings of imperialism and colonialism are absent to these analyses built on the experiential base of "post scarcity" conditions felt by the white middle class in the first world post war.
Private egoism is egoism in conflict with its own essence. (But this becomes true visibly, and therefore fully, once, and only once, the conditions necessitating narrow appropriation — often lumped sloppily under the confusionist category “scarcity” — are gone and the conditions for a fuller, wider appropriation have matured. Specifically, this means the conditions for the appropriation of other people as subjects (mutuality) as opposed to merely as objects (exploitation). Thus, for example, the present “recession,” the growth of poverty and desperation which it entails, has been at first a major setback in this regard, and has drastically curtailed the daily experiential base which for a while — at the peak of the “prosperity” of the sixties — made this critique feel true.).
atleast marx was writing about primitive communism and oriental despotism in the the 19th century and not in 2009, after hundreds of peoples have freed themselves and decolonialism and post development had begun to occupy people and introduced theoretical and practical shifts that animate movements.
i think the worst part of it is that in the end, the manifesto's strongest argument is merely a kind of practical opportunism. a politics indistinguishable from the aap in india. at best, they could be like the hundreds of social democratic parties that shamble on in the west.
In the end, egoism is our only friend; in the last analysis greed is the only thing we can trust. Any revolutionary who is to be counted on can only be in it for himself unselfish people can always switch loyalty from one projection to another. Furthermore, only the most greedy people can be relied on to follow through on their revolutionary project. Others less greedy can always be bought off so as to stop short of themselves.
on theoretical engagement with economics, i will admit that i am not the best political economist. but hedonism as use value is possibly the most depressing distortion i have engaged with. from the twitter philosophy of it hurts so it must be true is replaced with it feels good so it must be right.
With the dying-out of exchange-value, the science of use-value (thus all the concrete sciences, now unified through their unified subjective use) will become the only useful science. And the science of use-value is the science of pleasure.

This is where advanced technology steps in to make our lives easier and our images more impressive.
Enter Saiwa's Pose Estimation Online Tool, a groundbreaking innovation poised to revolutionize the way we approach photography. Developed by Saiwa Technologies, this tool harnesses the power of artificial intelligence (AI) and computer vision to accurately analyze and enhance poses in real-time. Let's delve into what makes this tool a game-changer and how it can benefit photographers and content creators alike.
What is Pose Estimation?
Pose estimation involves the intricate process of predicting and identifying key points on the human body, such as joints (e.g., elbows, knees) and keypoints (e.g., hands, head), within digital media. This task is essential for applications requiring spatial understanding and interaction between humans and computational systems. Leveraging sophisticated machine learning models, pose estimation algorithms analyze input images or video frames to accurately detect and track these critical anatomical landmarks.
Pose estimation algorithms vary in complexity and approach, from traditional methods based on geometric models and feature extraction to modern deep learning techniques utilizing convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and recurrent neural networks (RNNs). These advancements have significantly enhanced the accuracy and efficiency of pose estimation systems, enabling real-time performance and robustness across diverse operating conditions.
Importance of Pose Estimation
The importance of pose estimation lies in its transformative impact on various domains previously constrained by limitations in computer vision. Historically, accurately detecting and interpreting human poses posed considerable challenges for artificial intelligence systems.

Feature empathy and compassion by holding a hand during a time of vulnerability or cheering up on the small wins in the route towards recovery. Even in the simplest manner, they display empathy and compassion.
In addition to that, personalization can be seen in end-of-life care, where the emphasize is shifted from curing to comforting. For the dying and the families this trip might be accompanied by worries and sorrows. In those situations the home nurses do play one of the key roles and this is to offer compassionate support and then to ensure the deceased has a dignified and peaceful transition. Patients’ wishes and preferences become central and the experience of end of life becomes a meaningful and revealing one.
Lastly, personalized home nursing care is a buzz word today but in actual sense it is more of a paradigm shift of medicine delivery. The nurses in the home, through empathy, understanding and accommodating, concrete trust and create a healing environment conducive to well being to each patient.
Empathy, versatility and dedication to individual approach to patient's care become a proof that private medicine is able to change the world while the patient is still on his bed at home. Fundamentally, it's not only about dealing with illnesses, but it's about appreciating the human face and walking with the suffering ones till they are out of their trouble and on their way back to health.

Pioneering great safety with Computer vision
Every year, there are so many deaths due to workplace accidents, and yet only some are recorded. Environmental health and safety teams generally function with an improper understanding of their safety environment because they are unable to identify possible workplace hazards before they start. The merged effects of unreported actions and missing situations might be destructive.
viAct involves great progress in tracking through computer vision and lower manpower costs. When workers fail to use safety ropes when working at a height, the AI-powered system immediately notifies nearby and distant stakeholders so they can take the appropriate action in advance.

Software for environmental health and safety teams is still old, even in spite of the growing complexity of regulatory environments and growing awareness of workplace safety worldwide. By automating potential hazard detection and producing real-time alerts, computer vision has the capability to completely transform workplace safety. Computer vision allows companies to immediately recognize and manage safety hazards, stopping mishaps and enhancing workers' overall safety.
Application of Computer Vision Safety
One of the basic functions of security is actually recognizing the attacker when he is trying to break in. The bedrock of AI-powered security systems is computer vision, which comprises procedures that enable the withdrawal of major insights from great loads of data and the use of various data modalities. Computer vision safety models are becoming more reliable and are used to detect possible invaders using several cameras.
Commercial and residential users of security systems benefit from a myriad of features, such as all-time video recording to gather evidence of both criminal and other occurrences and an overall increased sense of safety. Additionally, automation of security systems frees up critical staff time so that security teams can concentrate on other duties and keep enhancing the safety of the property. In times of tragedy, effective and fast rescue efforts are essential. Robots that can rescue are involved in detecting natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, and other natural calamities.

First responders can be kept safe in search operations by using robots in scenarios where humans cannot be involved. Several computer vision models are there that are used for great speed. The process for passing through airport security is almost known in the whole universe. One may not be aware, of how much computer vision technology has been incorporated into this procedure in modern years. Modern item-identifying techniques are now important for locating dangerous objects using different kinds of scans, which protects safety.
Conclusion
Accidents at work can hurt a brand's reputation. Customers are choosing businesses that put safety first because they are more aware of the moral standards of the companies they embrace. Organizations that excel in workplace safety accordingly acquire a competitive edge and become leaders in their respective fields. Organizations generally meet the expectations of both employees and customers about safer working conditions. Businesses that prioritize workplace safety show their dedication to the health and safety of their employees, which raises engagement and satisfaction levels.
