Greed as a function of Life

No!
So - in the realm of philosophy there are great thinkers ... and wannabes. I don't know where I fit ... but I have ... thoughts; And ... that's enough for me right now.
But yea.

My mind is a hole sometimes. But now ... I realize that there's this other thing I wanted to mention - not this thing - so ... there's got to be a point to what I'm remembering and what not.


But yes. Consumption is a function of life. Consumption then eventually leads to satiation. For me - when I eat too much - my body kind of shuts down even. Well, to me that's how being sated works. There's for once a volumetric limit - then there's the time of digestion ... but then there's also ... and I think that might be my problem right now ... let's call it "selective satisfaction". Like, when there's two substances we need, in a food, but of one we have too much and of the other perhaps too little - our body ought to react somewhat weirdly to that.

But now ... when it comes to money ... especially now that most of it barely consumes any space ... where's ... the natural limit?
And that's ... where greed comes in. Like ... when the function of consumption becomes ... unhinged. Or, ironically, when you would say ... eat less ... just to have more money ... for whatever reason.


But I don't think that's the problem.
Right now ... the bigger problem are our blind-spots. I just learned a few moments ago that Trump went 180 on his immigration politics; And that MAGA is kind of ... in freak-out mode over this - and Right Wing influencers are already running damage control. We know the drill.
Point being ... these MAGAts start turning into Leftoid Identity Politics SJWs right before our eyes ... and there's just something ... I have mixed feelings.

But yea. Obviously there were blind-spots. Sometimes we can talk it up to stupidity, other times though - and that's what I want to get at here - it's just ... naivete. Like ... we know how Greed looks, or is supposed to look - like, fat Medieval Aristocrat gulping down Meat in front of the starving child - and last time we checked that's not us ... and so, we're not that! Right?

I mean, it has happened a few times to me that I was stuck in some behavior 'before' I realized that that's ... this thing or that thing.


And I think that ... the most dominant emanation of that phenomenon right now is how "we" tend to justify our anger. Like ... an utterly bigoted Christian that's hating on Queer people doesn't think that they're an asshole or in the wrongs. There's people on the Internet saying this or that, so, sure you're not alone and such. But yea, that's another Flat Earth tangent opening up here.


I don't know ... this is pointless.
What am I even ...

You probably have better things to do.
