The Singularity as an Eschatological Event
The singularity looms as an eschatological rupture, beyond liberal or communist historical frameworks.
The word "pragmatism" in the context of Trump's revolution is very pertinent. That is deep philosophy of US. It is based on the unique criteria: it works or it doesn't work. You shouldn't prescribe neither to subject nor to object what it has to be.
Success or failure is the only measure of free interaction of two indefinite realities -- inner and outer. Pragmatism can be philosophical (Peirce), romantic (Emerson, Thoreau), psychological (James), dark (Poe, Lovecraft), optimistic (Mead, Dewey) - any kind.
Liberalism of globalists (Soros, Obama, Biden) became something contrary to pragmatism. It prescribes to persons and things what they must be. Totally unrelated to the fact - it works or doesn't at all. That is why left liberals (as well as neocons) are not American.
No limits of imagination and will until you hurt on the wall. Or abyss. Or death.
Just remarks. I was certain that pragmatism would appear in the context of trumpism sooner or later. And its total contradiction to liberalism would be underscored. Pragmatism can serve to Americans as a guide to reading Heidegger. Dasein is being open to... Or closed.
We are on the event horizon of the singularity - Elon Musk Sun February 23, 2025 Acc (acceleration) is not technological but metaphysical phenomenon. Extremely sinister. It is the end. But the end of what? And will the end mean new beginning? And beginning of what?
All that is not clear. Singularity is eschatological concept. It is neither end of history in liberal reading, nor in communist reading. But is not hegelian vision of Spiritual State also. Something different. Related maybe to Antichrist or to kali-yuga. Or something else.
Soros, Obama, and the 1% globalists brought on the revolution, Biden attempted to keep the momentum going - and Trump carries the counterrevolution... And those who have been diligent, already know what is coming.
Your hatred of "Liberalism" unbalances you.
A society without any Liberalism has no free speech, no freedom of conscience, no right of assembly, no democratic norms, no individual rights, Czarism/Communism on steroids.
The west is ruled by a combo of corporate fascists, and racist Nazis, who lie about their supposed "Liberalism" to win votes. A child can see that.
As for the 'Singularity', the term was specifically chosen as it includes Infinity, and is therefore unknowable by definition. It will involve AI, and what direction a conscious AI will go in is unguessable - any more than an ant can guess what a human might do.
No past philosopher is going to help with this. They were all flawed.
