{∅, {∅}, {∅, {∅}}} : Rage Against the Meat Grinder

Holden,
Thank you for the link to Schopenhauer's Sense of Self :

At the hands of presumed experts, Schopenhauer’s profound insights have been grievously misrepresented for decades.

Also:  In his mode of existence as the pure subject of knowing, ‘man is nature herself’ and therefore undying, universal, and eternal.

Decoding Schopenhauer’s Metaphysics: The Key to Understanding How It Solves the Hard Problem of Consciousness and the Paradoxes of Quantum Mechanics is already on Library Genesis!

Someone is going to have to fund such scholarship one of these good old days.

I would have never known about this book if I had not followed the link to the article on Schopenhauer's sense of self.  Thanks again, Holden.  It took me a couple of days just to get around to discovering it in the link.   

In fact, there is an entire slew of interesting titles by this Bernardo Kastrup at the genesis library:

I can't imagine the youth being able to stay focused on damn near anything if they are going to be sitting at their terminals "unsupervised" - ha!    How ridiculous.   Well, maybe the more solitary and imaginative ones will find ways to educate themselves in spite of themselves, and despite the odds against it.  Hell, we managed somehow to salvage a love of learning.   There will be others as well, rest assured.
