The Moss Of Will

clipped from proteinwisdom.com To today’s “progressive”, the mold on their ideas looks like penicillin. To time, it looks only like the moss growing on an old slice of marble rye. Which is why the consensus view of truth that underpins progressive ideological belief is so absolutely crucial: because all it takes to create “truth” is complicity; and if such can be made to take the place of any kind of agreed upon ground from which to engage in dispassionate criticism (in the past, Enlightenment empiricism and rationalism served us well), will alone becomes ascendant. And will is really no more than ego projected onto the world by power, whether that power be rhetorical or something more obviously resembling totalitarianism.
