CURRENT MISSION

Consciously without a set plan. Enjoying the way rather than the goal.
Learning and playing in every sense and field (games, acting, music, philosophy, dancing, etc.)

PHILOSOPHY

I'll try to put my mindset into words with the help of many different terms/concepts/ideologies. But I would like to point out that I never agree 100% to the implicit thoughts that come along with all of these terms/concepts/ideologies. If you are interested, these deviations would be a good startingpoint for a conversation 😉

Basically, I would describe myself as a postmodern subjectivist or relativist. I assume that no view - not even mine - is more right or wrong than any other (so I contradictorily do not exclude that there might be an objective right or wrong). My subjective process of selection from this equal mass of possible views (evolutionary humanism/national socialism, Buddhism, vegetarianism, and many more) is an attempt to resolve as many logical contradictions as possible. (Example: Killing a human being is much more forbidden than killing an animal. Why? It would be more consistent if it were equally allowed or forbidden)
This selection procedure convinced me, for example, of the argumentation of determinism. Roughly explained, I doubt that man (or woman 😉) has free will. The will of a human being (career wish, sexuality, etc.) is fixed/determined and the resulting actions are also determined by this determined will and chance. At no point in this process is there room for a (causal-)free will. But the false assumption that there is a free will leads to the stories of Western cultures (Star Wars, Bibel, Grimm's Fairy Tales, etc.) or a reduction or increase in punishment in our legal system.

I can understand that following the idea of determinism could lead to an identity crisis, as it would call into question many of the common basic assumptions of our Western culture. For me, however, it has rather led to an even greater relaxation. Since I was already an above-average relaxed person before these considerations, you can hardly imagine the present deep relaxation 😉
Another concept to which I have felt connected since then is nihilism.

But this all sounds very fancy and fundamental now. But in concrete terms it has relatively little impact on my life. Through my determined will, which has resulted from my body/my brain chemistry and the imprinting of my random environment, I am strongly connected to a specific thought-construct, anarchism.
Anarchy is often misunderstood as a chaos creating and destructive principle. Therefore here a quick attempt at a definition. Basically, anarchy tries to recognize and reduce power differences or to prevent the exploitation of a power differences. Particularly difficult here is that an anarchist organization becomes very complex the bigger the size of the group. For this reason, hierarchical or democratic forms of organisation are more likely to prevail at this point. This is one of the reasons why an anarchist system must be characterized by a very high degree of organization (anarchy is not chaos). End of definition attempt.
According to this definition, anti-racist, feminist or "vegan" arguments are anarchist in essence. Each time an (miss-)used power difference between beings is questioned (black - white, man - woman, human - animal).
Beside these, for many people "acceptable" thoughts of equality I have another one, which is not very common. This is the idea of equivalence between young and old people. In pedagogy (the art of leading children) a power gap is systematically used to turn unfinished children into finished adults (analogous: unfinished savages/natives into finished civilized people)
The thought-construct that deals with this is called anti-pedagogy.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Love myself ;)

教，学，和分享

I can share my knowledge/my learning about music, sourdough, table tennis, west coast swing, and probably much more.

Quick sidenote concerning my negative reference: On my way there my phone died, so I couldn‘t notify about me being late. And about the showering: I perceived it as an offer and not that I was being asked to take a shower.
