That clearly says Physics.
humanity MUST commit mass intellectual suicide. and after that, all new humans must be intellectually aborted as quickly as possible to prevent damage.
This echos a thought I've been having. Rationality isn't all that. We use our "reason" to understand the world, leading to the computerized and homogenized life of today, with our insipid political dialog and our massive social dysfunction.
Perhaps rationality is at its limits. Perhaps the physics and mathematics of the 20th century have placed fundamental limits on what we can know through observation and reason.
Haven't we all had the experience of losing an argument to someone more articulate than ourselves ... yet knowing as we slunk away that we were still right, even if we couldn't out-logic our opponent.
Logic and rationality have profound limits; and we are pushing against those limits in our modern age. The "enlightenment" is over. What's next is hard to say.
I think you mean /sci/
true
reading Ecclesiastes should be a prereq to posting
I have similar thoughts and think that we went so far towards seeking rationality that we looped around and jumped off a figurative cliff into the irrational.
Yea Forums moves ever more inexorably towards Shestovian enlightement with each day
Post-meaning, the medium is the only message. The trajectory of sense becomes tied to what you want to hear, not what I want to say: language screaming through us from the future in self-fulfiling prophecy, using the human body and our digital creations as vehicles. The world falls back to ur-tribalism, mysticism and sacrificing goats: the luxury flat of the future middle class becomes a bunker.
Read William James
The Enlightenment never ended. Read this:

Our rationality is not anywhere near its limits. There are just massive forces attempting to prevent people from using their rationality.
