On the Inevitability of Hypocrisy in a Post-Modern Mode of Being.

On the Inevitability of Hypocrisy in a Post-Modern Mode of Being.

 

Thought and Action can be delineated as two separate phenomena. This may be an illusory distinction, but insofar as one is deeply possessed of such an illusion by virtue of Conditioning, it may be practical to regard these two as separate.

 

Thought is not always required for Action.

Thought may have virtue until the threshold where Thought ends and Action begins is reached.

 

Hypocrisy occurs if this threshold is not crossed successfully.

 

The greatest barrier to this crossing is Doubt.

 

The greatest false justification for this sort of Doubt, which is illusory as opposed to the constructive Doubt necessary for Philosophical exploration, is Dogmatic Post-modernism.

 

If I presume that I cannot know a thing, this presupposes that I KNOW that I cannot know a thing.

 

This is a conscious pretension. It suggests that I know with CERTAINTY that I am unaware of a fact, simply because it is Unconscious. This becomes void when we consider the presence of the Unconscious as a second subject that may very well KNOW a thing, but does not speak directly with consciousness except in the case of schizophrenia and other so-called “mental disorders”.

 

This would suggest that our delineation of mental disorders is misguided when we take an attitude of condemnation towards people with them.

 

Segregation, forced drugging, and a sense of having a “superior” knowledge or “Sanity” is therefore unjust. It is a passive way of condemnation.
