RE: The jousting files #1.....Defining perspectives, at least it's a start.
Rousseau is the typical thinker whose a priori assumption of natural goodness of man lead him to conceptualize his "social contract."
Didn't he dump his kids off to an orphanage to? lol
like marx talking about 'the evil capitalists ' living off the labors of the workers - while spending all his years being paid for - by the labors of his friends workers...
Usually "reformers" are the progeny of second-tier aristocrats or benighted mercantile scum that are accustomed to life of luxury given by their forebears with absolutely no sense of responsibility towards their society because of their second-rate class status. The idleness of their mind, lack of influence, and infinite free time allow for these meatbags to concoct the most evil schemes to spread human misery as far as possible.
It was not the "proletariat" who rebelled against their betters, but the bored, previleged, useless intellectual class that brought forth the Marxist revolution, grasping for power that was beyond their reach; and they proved with their insane social policies that they were indeed unworthy of such power. Even the modern day Western reformers, the so-called SJWs, are mostly bored, previleged, European descendents seeking power and influence, supposedly to "help" their darker brethren. The world would be a much better place, if these reformers and do-gooders remain locked-up in their ivory towers, living in the fantasy land of their intellectual idleness, studying pea pods, insects, and other useless pursuits.
In a more elegant time, much of these useless, but dangerous meatbags would be sent off to monasteries to work menial tasks and occupy their time and energy poring over obscure texts or studying nature. In our degenerate times, these evil men are allowed to spread their poison into the minds of susceptible and unsuspecting youths.
Eloquently said sir....
