all these modern studies gives modern information that pionts
directions to evolution
so my brain/life is radio evolution, a clear tone
no information pollution
when i wake up i wake up as an animal
and that is what i find normal, you know what plants and animals do, the basics
what i want to know is if there are also humans who think the same
that modern information gives direction to "return" to evolution
maybe other humans don't wake up like me
maybe they wake up as - students
-factoryworker
-musician/artist
-president
-king or queen, prince prinves
-astronaut
-vodoopriest, medicine man, pope
-religious person
you know
i DON'T buy that 24 hour freakshow
you are no president or pope or king or queen
YOU ARE A HOMO SAPIEN from a branche in evolution of a hairy animal
YOU ARE A HAIRY ANIMAL
STOP TRIPPING ANIMAL
so you wake up as an animal and correct your brain with all the modern information and do yourself a favior and stop the 24 hour freakshow OK
that is my message
and i can keep explaining about evolution
and so on
and so on

I think any intellectual has a phase in which they think all that is modern is inherently evil. This has been worked out by academia ages ago. The Frankfurt School used this concept of being an animal (obviously this is not verbatim, but I think the point is the same), i.e. being unalienated, as normative but others have proved this to be problematic. In essence, there is a bit of an injustice done to the situation if you're going to claim that we're not being the animals we biologically were intended to be. This implies that humans have taken a false course of action, as if there was a correct course of action that is different than the way things have historically unfolded. This is unabashed idealism, which is arguably what guides the alienating forces of modernity. If you really want to overcome the alienation you feel from the modern world, you need to look more so at the material conditions themselves, taking them not for their idealized qualities, but more so for their material qualities; that is to say, treating the modern world as a social fact and not as something that is but shouldn't be.
