Thoughts of a Reactionary Kantian

[the-perfect-wagnerite-returns]

Without Buxtehude (1637-1707), there would have been no Bach

Here we have his passacaglia, the clear source of inspiration for Bach's monumental apotheosis of the form.

Compared to the logical perfection and mathematical precision of Bach, Buxtehude's counterpoint is softer, more subtle, a gentle dance between delicate melodic lines. There is less harmonic innovation, but a greater emphasis on the careful exploration of a musical field within the boundaries of its harmonic mode (take for example, the extended sections of repeated syncopated eighth notes: a gentle but unwavering ceiling demarking the upper limit of the harmonic boundary while chords undulate beneath, buoyed by the bass ostinato).

In many respects, it's unfair to compare him to Bach, but it's also inevitable. Let his music speak for him.

"Society flourishes when old men plant trees whose shade they'll never know."

Boomers grew up in the shade of trees planted by greater generations and when they got older they cut those trees down and sold the lumber to go play slots in Florida in retirement.

My only Israel-Palestine stance is that a place being well-known for providing safe refuge for criminal pedophiles internationally should be razed to the ground and its people scattered for the 110th time.

Boomers hear the Praeconium Paschale and be like "Hey! That's Latin! Like in the Exorcist!! Catholics are all devil-worshippers!!"

Pope Francis Declares Klaus Schwab Is 'More Important' Than Jesus Christ - The People's Voice

The world has entered dark and stormy times, according to Pope Francis who says humanity must put its faith in World Economic Forum founder

The world has entered dark and stormy times, according to Pope Francis who says humanity must put its faith in World Economic Forum founder Klaus Schwab who is the man with the plan to restore nature to its position of primacy in the world order.

According to Pope Francis, Klaus Schwab has emerged as a “more important figure” than Jesus Christ in the current era because Jesus wants to save souls, and Schwab understands that we need less souls.

Pope Francis’ comments have caused a storm in the Vatican, but should we really be surprised by his support for Schwab’s Nazi-style eugenics program? As an Agenda Contributor at the WEF, Pope Francis is fluent in blasphemy and is actively working to subvert the church and Christianity in general.

Should we really be surprised that the blasphemous Pope is siding with the globalists?

This is the pope who joined forces with Bill Clinton last month to announce that humanity must be urgently depopulated to save the planet.

And this is the pope who informed his flock that “relationships with Jesus are dangerous and harmful.” Breaking with centuries of Christian tradition, Francis sparked fears that he is an illegitimate pope with a sinister agenda when he told a crowd of 33,000 pilgrims in St. Peter’s Square that “a personal, direct, immediate relationship with Jesus Christ” must be avoided at all costs.

No surprise here

I guess we have an answer to the age old question "is the pope catholic?"

Because he's clearly working for the devil

[the-perfect-wagnerite-returns]

I cannot find anything this story is actually sourced from. Literally every article and web page I pull up just links back to this People's Voice article lmao. The embedded video even tries to say the Pope is a secret Satanist because they were chanting the Exsultet??? Maybe I'm just not good enough at navigating boomer clickbait, can somebody help me out here?

Sorry folks just about all morality is religious.

Like few people are familiar with what purely non-religous moral frameworks look like. But basically if your morality suggests someone can be guilty of doing bad things it's not secular it's based on religion.

A tree branch that drops an apple on you and causes harm is not guilty, a person that throws an apple and causes the same harm is guilty. In a purely material world matter and energy interacts and is bound by cause and effect relationships, but free will suggest something outside of the normal cause and effect chain can choose outcomes. So free will can't exist in purely material terms it has to adopt metaphysical ideas like souls and spirits.

In short if I say a murder is a guilty person who should be punished I'm pushing a religious idea on you.

October 10, 2023 - During a protest in solidarity with the Palestinian people in Sheffield, UK, two people scaled the 60-meter tall town hall to take down the Israeli flag that the local council had raised over hte building. In its stead they raised the flag of Palestine, to cheers from the crowd. [video]/[video]

First it was “go to college”

Then it was “major in STEM”

Then it was “one year experience”

Then it was “three years experience”

Then it was “three years of DIRECTLY RELATED experience”

Then it was five years of DIRECTLY RELATED experience"

Now, if you didn’t practically invent the technology a company uses, you’ve got no shot.

“but I started in the mailr..”

Nobody gives a f*ck about how you started in the mail room. You’re the CEO now. The mail room job is an unpaid internship now, and it requires 3 years of directly related mail delivery experience to even be considered. Sit down.
