title: Nonilex: A federal judge in Virginia rejected DOJ’s request to search through a #WashingtonPost reporter’s electronic devices as part of a national security #leak investigation, ruling that the court would instead be responsible for conducting the search. The Tuesday ruling suggested that Magistrate Judge William Porter did not trust the #Trump admin to conduct a narrow search of the devices & feared that such an examination could risk exposing more than 1,000 of the reporter’s govt #sources to the #DOJ.

title: simsa03: Mir Faizal et al., "Consequences of Undecidability in Physics on the Theory of Everything" https://jhap.du.ac.ir/article_488.html Exciting! But just because the universe is proven not to be a simulation doesn't mean that the universe is real or that it is proven to be real. ;-) «Physically these Gödel sentences correspond to empirically meaningful facts—e.g., specific black‑hole microstates—that elude any finite, rule‑based derivation. Gödel’s second theorem deepens the impasse: the self‑referential consistency statement Con(FQG) ≡ ¬ ProvΣQG (⊥) cannot itself be proved by FQG without contradiction [41,42]. A purely computational theory of everything would therefore not be able to establish its own internal soundness.» «The claim that our universe is itself a computer simulation has been advanced in several forms, from Bostrom’s statistical “trilemma’’ [85] to more recent analyses by Chalmers [86] and Deutsch [87]. These proposals assume that every physical truth is reducible to the output of a finite algorithm executed on a sufficiently powerful substrate. Yet this assumption tacitly identifies the full physical theory with its computable slice FQG. Our framework separates the computable fragment FQG from the non-algorithmic meta-layer MToE. Because MToE contains an external truth predicate T (x) that by construction escapes formal verification, any finite algorithm can at best emulate FQG while systemat-ically omitting the meta-theoretic truths enforced by T (x). Consequently, no simulation could in principle reproduce what would otherwise be the full underyling structure of the physics of our universe. Our analysis instead suggests that genuine physical reality embeds non-computational content that cannot be instantiated on a Turing-equivalent device. Since it is impossible to simulate a complete and consistent universe, our universe is definitely not a simulation.

title: simsa03: Izabella Tabarovsky, "Soviet Anti-Zionism and Contemporary Left Antisemitism" (2019) https://fathomjournal.org/soviet-anti-zionism-and-contemporary-left-antisemitism/ Izabella Tabarovsky, "Zombie Anti-Zionism" (2024) https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/arts-letters/articles/zombie-anti-zionism In the first piece the author traces origin and developement of the distinction between anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism in Soviet propaganda, primarily in the mid 1960s to the late 1980s. Here she concentrates on the USSR and the relevance of this propaganda in domestic societal control In the second piece she describes in a tour d'horizon how anti-Zionism between the late 1950s to 1990 provided the USSR with a very effective tool against the West by uniting various anti-Western sentiments and movements. Combining allegations of imperialism, genocide, apartheid, Nazism, it unites Western communists (and the Left in general), African, South-American, and Asian liberation struggles, Arab nationalism, as well as Jihadists. In both pieces Tabarovsky describes genalogies, e.g., how in 1982 Abbas wrote a Ph.D thesis equating Zionism and Nazism at the prestigious Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow. Immensely helpful, not just with regard to the origin of late 20th century Western anti-Semitism on the Left (e.g., George Galloway, Ken Livingstone, Jeremy Corbyn) but even more with regard to the anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism in Arab (e.g., Gamal Abdel Nasser, Mahmoud Abbas) and Latin American nations (e.g., Lula Da Silva, Gustavo Petro). «What’s so interesting about this half-century-old Soviet propaganda is how precisely it mirrors the language emanating from the anti-Israel left since Oct. 7. Today’s left, too, speaks of Israel as a racist, imperialist, and colonialist state; equates it with Nazi Germany and apartheid South Africa; disparages Jews for having turned into oppressors; and proclaims Palestinians’ inalienable right to resist their colonial oppression by any means…

In this sense, Russia increasingly resembles a feudal state, in which power is inherited at all levels. The children of the bureaucratic aristocracy are all, in one way or another, striving for government careers and positions of influence. [...] The ongoing generational shift will, of course, change the face of Russia. The new officials, who were very young when the Soviet Union collapsed, differ from the previous generation in that they lack Soviet psychology and a Soviet background. On one hand, many members of this next generation of Russian leaders tend to idealize the Soviet Union and dream of restoring imperial power. On the other hand, they are full-fledged capitalists, and most of them clearly do not want another Cold War or international isolation for Russia. They are the children of a cynical generation, convinced that business can—and should—be done with everyone: China, Iran, Europe, the United States, and even Ukraine. In many ways, Putin’s personnel policy resembles the dynamics in the final years of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro’s rule. Castro also tried to cultivate a new generation of Komsomol-style loyalists—and, in some ways, succeeded. The politicians he nurtured, young enough to be his grandchildren, turned out to be even more orthodox and staunchly conservative than the generation of officials who were old enough to be his sons.

Sinwar, Yassin, and other leaders of terrorist groups are capable of impulse control, delay of gratification, and utter brutality in following thgeir goals. If they were psychopaths, they wouldn't be able to run such highly effecitive organisations. Also important is the emphsis of "secondary psychopathy", i.e., that children raised in organised crime familes and terrorist circles often learn those values and even adopt imitations of such psychopthic behaviour although they may not clinically be malignant narcissists or borderline psychopaths. To me this latter reminder is important as it seems to confirm a bit a thought I was having on authoritarian societies, be it Nazi-Germany, Russia, or Gaza: That there is no significant distinction between populace and regime, esp. not the one typcially made (and used as exculpation) between terrorist regime and suffering but innocent poplace.

My argument will limit itself to literal reflexive concepts, in other words concepts articulated via the use of reflexive pronouns, and proposes that the formation of reflexive ideas is primarily shaped by two philosophical goals: firstly, the attempt to think totalities, and secondly, the search for foundational principles, whether they be ontological, epistemological, or ethical. Reflexivity appears to be a general structural tendency of foundational principles and totalities. If this is true, then it can be shown that some of the contemporary philosophical systems which claim to either deconstruct or replace the hierarchies of traditional metaphysics do so mostly in a superficial sense. The essential skeleton of ancient thought is conserved, and with it the conceptual magnetism foundational ideas display for reflexivity. This argument highlights a crucial continuity between ancient and modern philosophy, while at the same time locating an important difference. Though reflexivity is important for both as a primary ontological process, ancient philosophy treasures self-identification, but modern philosophy self-differentiation, as the foremost operation of being. Finally, I suggest that the reflexivity of philosophical "beginnings" (archai) reflects the human being as a reflexive subject.» #sources

If this is true, then it can be shown that some of the contemporary philosophical systems which claim to either deconstruct or replace the hierarchies of traditional metaphysics do so mostly in a superficial sense. The essential skeleton of ancient thought is conserved, and with it the conceptual magnetism foundational ideas display for reflexivity. This argument highlights a crucial continuity between ancient and modern philosophy, while at the same time locating an important difference. Though reflexivity is important for both as a primary ontological process, ancient philosophy treasures self-identification, but modern philosophy self-differentiation, as the foremost operation of being. Finally, I suggest that the reflexivity of philosophical "beginnings" (archai) reflects the human being as a reflexive subject.» #sources

This constitutes a dramatic shift from the last 150 years when the thirst for fossil fuels persistently rose. But now this growth is nearing its end sooner than many expected, driven in part by a surge in renewables. This significant event, however, masks a more striking possible future: One in which total global energy use peaks and energy’s weight in world affairs diminishes. [...] In a broader sense, just as history has included the stone, bronze and iron ages, we have been living since the Industrial Revolution in an energy age. But this age, during which energy has dominated so many economic, geopolitical and other dimensions, may be coming to an end with peak energy.» A bit confusing is the author's talk of "energy peak" which seems to lumb together energy and electricity demands. Thus, whereas I can see a decline in energy demands, I don't see them with regard to electricity demands. (Esp. with all the decarbonisation of industries necessary to accomplish mitigation with climate change.) Anyway, an interesting piece with a lot of interesting links. Surely countering my musings on #peakrenewables with #peakenergy as the broader concept. #sources #infrastructure #energy #postdoom

title: simsa03: Yay! The new book from George Scialabba has arrived in the mail: "Only a Voice: Essays" (2023). Rarely since the early 1990s (with the books by Michael Ventura) has an author from the U.S. influenced me that much. Although his book review essays vary in quality, his style of presenting as a debate the views of selected authors which he confronts with each other to lead that discussion to the topics he's interested in, is of high intellectual and thus educational value. Pursuing such "monologue-styled debates" publicly, in magazines and papers, continues a centuries-old tradition. To have his voice from the (more or less) progressive side is a rare exception to the dominance of the conservative tradition that found its master in the late works of Lionel Trilling (who started out as contributer to the Partisan Review). It's good to see that Scialabba dedicates his new book to Noam Chomsky and Ralph Nader and offers his thanks to people like Barbara Ehrenreich and Richard Rorty. #amlesen #sources

title: simsa03: In 1977 the German author Klaus Theweleit wrote a two-volumes account of #fascism which he called "Männerphantasien" / "Male Fantasies". Concentrating on the Freikorps soldiers of World War I, who roamed the streets of Weimar Republic and became a bedrock and driving force of the SA of the Nazi reign, he dives into their "fantasies", the absence of their own spouses and children, their pursuit of perennial war, of their "production of death" as a specific way of living. Other than various theories of fascism (Marxist, psychonalytic, etc.), Theweleit insists that the Freikorps men didn't pursue their actions because of delusions or of yearning for substitute enactment, but because they decided to live that way, because they wanted to do what they did. In that, Theweleit insists that "fascism" is not some aberration but ingrained in every "normal man", detectable in his way his prefers to treat women, minorities, communism, the working class... The first volume of Theweleit's book was translated into English by Stephen Conway and published by the University of Minnesota Press in 1987. It can be found here: https://monoskop.org/images/5/54/Theweleit_Klaus_Male_Fantasies_Vol_1_Women_Floods_Bodies_History.pdf Barbara Ehrenreich wrote a foreword to this translation which I recommend to read. Some connections of themes, thoughts, and justifications sound dated today – in particular the argumentative jump from "male suppression of women" to "human exploitation of nature" (which was a common topos in the late 1970s to 1990s) – but in her preparation of the reader of what is to come in the book, she does a very good job. The first idea that came to my mind reading her was to compare the depiction of the Freikorps men with the mercenaries of Yevgeny Prigozhin’s «Wagner (PMC)» as well as with the human rights violation by many in the Russian army vis-à-vis Ukrainian civilians.

title: simsa03: A quick reminder and recap what the rebranding of Twitter as X is about: The rebranding of Twitter into X seems to signal that Musk uses the platform as basis for becoming a fintech company.¹ (Musk already registered Twitter Payments LLC with the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network. https://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Twitter-FinCEN-registration-2022.pdf )¹ But Musk is not alone in that or even the first. In 2019 Zuckerberg planned the same for Facebook with the introduction of the crypto-currency Libra.² At that time Libra seemed to have gone nowhere as Visa, Mastercard, ebay, and PayPal pulled out of Libra project in 2019.³ Still, the fintech Libra Networks was registered in Zurich, Switzerland, in 2019 for Facebook (2,5 billion users in 2019) and its subsidaries Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger (each about 1 billion users).⁴ So the difference seems to be that whereas Zuckerberg in 2019 tried to establish financial services based on crypto-currency throughout his platforms, it is not clear whether Musk wants to rely on crypto as well (as crypto was one major reason the aforementioned Visa, Masertcard, PayPal pulled out of Libra). But both projects planned to become an "online bank" of sorts. With the difference that as a fintech, by siphoning off user data, data of purchases, and behavioural statistics no bank is allowed to do, they can create financial products much faster and distribute them via their platofrms far more widespread than any bank could.⁵ In fact, back in 2019 Zuckerberg didn't seem to realise but Musk now does seem to understand that both platforms are not or are no longer in the ad-business but in the online banking business.

title: simsa04: George Scialabba, "Liberalism’s Two Sides: Alasdair MacIntyre and Richard Rorty’s lifelong argument." https://www.thenation.com/article/society/alasdair-macintyre-richard-rorty-liberalism/ The literature reports of George Scialabba are always a pleasure to read. His vast knowledge of the history of cultural debates and his peculiar essayistic style uniquely sketch the contoures of intellectual argumsnts. His essays are essential for orientation. He has a new colection of essays out in August. « In this last book, as in all his writings, Rorty had two purposes: first, to show how little traditional philosophy mattered; and second, to show how little that fact mattered—how little, that is, our moral life rests on deductions from principles and how much, instead, on sympathy, solidarity, and moral imagination. » #sources

title: simsa04: I was thinking a lot lately that Russia is not an autocratic state with a strongman at its helm but a mafia organisation posing as a state, with the tools, means, resources, and sovereign rights of a nation state. I felt this aspect missing in the various analyses of Putin's war against Ukraine in the works of Anne Applebaum, Timothy Snyder, Ruth Ben-Ghiat, Masha Gessen, and others, leaving their descriptions and inquiries kind of awry and missing he point. But it seems there has been at least one author thinking along those lines I am pursuing: Bálint Magyar, in his work from 2016 on "Mafia State", taking Hungary as example. (Kudos to Masha Gessen for mentioning his work, although mentioning it only in passing, without taking it more seriously.) Eager to read this book when it arrives. #sources #Russia #Putin
