HOW TO BE A FOOL

20:40 For all of my life up to about age forty-five, I could not for the life of me figure out why or how come my father, Murray, was a fool. At last I figured it out. he had decided at age eight years to be a non-human anti-person. His own father had done something Murray disapproved of and that gave him the chance to reject his father, and be perfect in his own eyes forever by not ever changing---my father fixated himself age eight.

200801 1813 To be a fool, ignore the following: When dealing with obstreperous pre-teens: remember: do not use hands on other people´s kids, use your brain, remember they are children, remember that the world is controlled by lawyers. corollaries: do not try to win, let them win.

remember that people are herd animals: they listen to neighbors instead of using own eyes ( they turn off own eyes). remember that kids in prepuberty and early teens do not know where they are, and cannot see the future at all.

230901 1807 People often mistakenly call “greed” what is actually a lust to be smarter, to get something cheaper or for nothing by being smarter --- it is not the money itself, but the money as points in a game; and note this re (with reference to) gambling: the real disorder (what Jesus called “the love of money”) is often a perversion along these lines, akin to the obsession with what is foolishly called “power”, instead of an actual desire to have things or money per se (in themselves)(as themselves). So, we should study that compulsion to be smarter, as a dynamic source of much trouble in behavior (and not only human). This of course also applies to the fallacy that the profession of “Economics”(what is called here in Norway “Macro-economics”) actually describes behavior about wealth itself; wealth is a human concept, properly; it cannot reasonably be described except under the aegis (wing) of psychology. Indeed, Marx is hoist on his own petard (blown up by his own bomb) when he looks forward to an ideal psychologist of the future: Marx, not being a proper philosopher (unable to think in a reasonable pattern) builds castles in the air.
