‘‘‘Equitism’’’ already Contains a Solution to the Looming AI/Automation Crisis.


‘‘‘Equitism’’’ already Contains a Solution to the Looming AI/Automation Crisis.







Dear Readers,



We are witnessing a rising tide of public discussion, within the ‘Rocke-Nazi’ ruling-class-owned mass media, of a looming crisis of massive unemployment and even deeper mass impoverishment, in the U.S., and worldwide, due to the burgeoning development and application of “Artificial Intelligence” [“AI”] and related automation and robotics technologies.

No doubt the purpose of these discussions, from the point of view of Rocke-Nazi strategy, in accord with their eugenics, humanocidal plan --


-- is to “soften up” the minds, and the moral sensibilities, of the working/middle-class public to yet another “reason” why, “people are pollution”, and why massive population reduction, especially [at first] extermination of the poor, and the uneducated, who have, by being in that condition, “proven” themselves to be “genetically unfit”, is an “objective necessity”.


I would like to humbly point out that the ‘Equitist Reform/Social Revolution’ advocated in this blog, and by Foundation Encyclopedia Dialectica, and by the Equitist Advocacy group, already contains a solution to this looming crisis of and for capitalism -- a crisis which reflects potential escalating and accelerating growth in the social forces of production, beyond any possible further containment thereof within the present predominant social relation of social reproduction:  the wage-labor/capital-relation.

This looming “AI/Automation/Robotics crisis” is a potential catastrophe for the manner in which human species-nature has developed, so far, within the kind of ‘human phenome’ produced by humanity’s ‘capital-value-praxis’, and for the way in which that human species-nature may react if it fails to concretely transcend that ‘capital-praxis’ as that praxis becomes increasingly impractic[e-]a[b]l[e]’, given a failure of the wage-labor relation to provide sustenance for a growing proportion of the working/middle-class population.

But the human phenome produced, to-date, by the historical praxis of the human species, including its latest, ‘capital[-only]-valuing’ form, has also the potential to innovate new ‘social ontology’, new social relations of social reproduction ‘socio-ontology’ -- a new, higher social relation of production, succeeding and superseding the capital/wager-labor relation as predominant social relation of social reproduction.

‘Generalized Equity’ is our name for our vision of that successor social relation of production, and for the successor system of human-social reproduction arising from it, and on its basis.

Within it, the newly-recognized ‘‘‘Equitist’’’ human right of ‘Citizen Stewardship Equity’ means that all citizens who are participants in a successful, publicly-capitalized producers’ cooperative, competing with others such, will have at least two streams of personal income:  (1) compensation for time worked on behalf of the cooperative, and (2) an equal share in the net operating surplus [transformed ‘‘‘profits of enterprise’’’] of that cooperative. 

Suppose that the work-time needs of that socialized producers’ cooperative fall-off, because of the democratically-decided application of AI/automation/robotics technology within that cooperative.  Then, however the cooperatives’ members decide to share that fall off in work time among themselves, and the corresponding fall-off in their compensation for time worked, they still retain their equal shares in the net operating surplus ‘‘‘profits’’’ of that cooperative.  The “individual property” [Marx] of each member of that cooperative “association of producers”, given “good behavior”, is inalienable.

For citizens not owning “individual property” in such a socialized producers’ cooperative, the newly-recognized ‘‘‘Equitist’’’ human right of ‘Citizen Birthright Equity’ would shield them from privation while unemployed. 

The ‘Citizen Birthright Equity Trust Funds’ form an inalienable, absolutely-portable social safety net for each person born into ‘Equitable Society’. 

These individual ‘Citizen Birthright Equity Trust Funds’ would be funded, in large part, by the ‘Social Rents’ paid, monthly, by the ‘Citizen Stewardship Equity’ socialized producers’ cooperatives, in return for their use of ‘Social Property’, in the form of their means of production, provided to them by the public as ‘Socialized Venture Capital’, from the ‘National Office of the Custodian of Social Property’, via the competing ‘Social Bank’ producers’ cooperatives, chartered by that Office.

GLOBAL STRATEGIC HYPOTHESES --


... Ever since the late 1800s at least, what has become the ‘Rocke-Nazi’ faction of the ruling plutocracy has always harbored -- sometimes more publicly, sometimes less so -- what they call ‘ “Eu”-genics” ’ -- or what we might interpret as meaning ‘ “Eu”-Genome-ics ’ -- as their ultimate strategy for the “bettering” of humanity:  as their “Final Solution” to the[ir] “Humanity Problem”.”

“Their “Humanity Problem” is, really, the problem, from their point of view, that, with the growth of the social forces of production, the rest of humanity tends increasingly to grow -- and, in the process, to outgrow them and their socio-politico-economic power.”   

“The solution, for the ‘descendence-phase’, ‘Rocke-Nazi’ faction of the ruling class [as distinct from, e.g., the ‘Roosevelt faction’, by now nearly completely exterminated, in terms of its potential leadership, by the ‘Rocke-Nazi’ faction], always amounts to stopping, and then to reversing that growth -- the growth of the social forces of production, including stopping/reversing the growth of that which is its core:  human population itself.”   

“Of course, the ‘Rocke-Nazis’ are willing to make a few exceptions -- allowing & encouraging the development of technologies that have military uses for mass murder -- “weapons of mass destruction” -- and electronic technologies with the potential for total and totalitarian surveillance of all of their “subject” humans at all times, to the degree of George Orwell’s 1984, and beyond.”

“But with regard to technologies such as nuclear fusion power, well, simply notice that no inventor of fusion machines -- since Philo Farnsworth, since Robert Bussard, since Eugene Mallove, etc., etc. -- can ever buy life insurance.  ... Fusion inventors suffer from a ‘‘‘pre-existing condition’’’ that no insurance company will countenance among its life insurance insurees, and they suffer that condition with even greater severity than do members of the erstwhile Rooseveltian-faction Kennedy family. ...” 

“No, except for such few exceptions, the ‘Rocke-Nazis’ Final Solution involves technological devolution, de-industrialization, “dumbing-down” of the working/middle classes, denial of mass higher education, e.g., by making it unaffordable, as well as by inducing mass “autism”, mass “dementias”, etc., etc., and an [omni-ethnic’] “cleansing” of the human genome -- by means of a ~95% “reduction” in global human population.” 

“Just listen to the vile voices of the ‘Rocke-Nazi’ intellectual-prostitute spokes-servants mouthing, with ‘exo-sadistic’ glee, their public proclamations of this ‘ “Eu”-genical Final Solution --


“Ironically, to the extent that there is any genomic basis to the ultra-criminal mass-murderousness of the ‘Rocke-Nazi’ faction itself, then, if that faction were to win out, their “Eu”-genic genomic “cleansing” of humanity would only mean increasing the frequency of the ‘Rocke-Nazis’ own offending alleles in the remaining human gene pool -- if, indeed, any humans remained at all after such a “victory”.”

“In the process of our fighting the ‘Rocke-Nazis’ tooth-and-nail for the survival, and for the eventual ‘thrival’, of humanity, there is a key weapon which we must wield with ever-increasing precision if humanity is to defeat the ‘Rocke-Nazi’ ‘‘‘antihumanists’’’ in time:  Let us call it ‘Euphĕnics’.” 

‘Euphĕnics’ means the continual and actual cleansing, not of “the human genome”, but of ‘the human phenome’, from the scourge of anti-science, of ideology -- of ideological contamination -- that continually tends to recrudesce, throughout the epoch of capitalist humanity, including inside modern science itself.”

“The means to this continual cleansing of the human phenome is the practice of consistent, continuing dialectical immanent critique, based upon vigilant monitoring for new outbreaks of ideology, whether consciously sponsored by the descendence-phase ruling class, or simply resulting from the specifically and characteristically ‘ideology-genic’ processes of ‘the social unconscious’, throughout the epoch of its capital-relation-domination.”

“This -- the immanent critique of ideology -- was the primary praxis of Karl Marx and Frederick Engels. It should continue to be our primary praxis as well. ...

... The dialectical synthesis of individualisms and collectivisms -- of egoisms and altruisms -- though its existence is only emergent in our time humanity-wide, still needs a name. ...”

“... Let us name its category Omnisms, or even Allisms.”

These names are apt because it seeks the good, not just for self, e.g., at the expense of [all] others [=[criminal] egoism], and not just the good for [all] others except for the self that is doing this seeking [[hypocritical, almost masochistic] altruism], but simply seeks the good of all, the self that is doing this seeking included, but not overemphasized. ...

... Many of our readers wonder how, on the one hand, we “see only a single science, the science of history” [Marx and Engels, The German Ideology.], and, on the other hand, include, in natural history, also human history -- i.e., include psych[e]ohistory, the [later] parts of natural history, involving «arithmoi» of «monads» that contain psyches; «monads» that exhibit self-consciousness.”

“Some also wonder what is all this talk about ‘‘‘self-reflexive functions’’’, and self-refluxive functions.”

“Well, it all has to do with the fact that human, ‘‘‘proprioceptive’’’, ‘self-perceiving’, ‘self-biased totality-perceiving’, ‘self-cognizing’ consciousness is an advanced special case, and kind, of high-frequency, continual ‘‘‘self-reflexivity’’’ and ‘‘‘self-refluxivity’’’.”

“As Bertrand Russell would have it, in terms of the logical and set-theoretical paradoxes that, for him, were to be suppressed [but which we see as rudimentary formal models immanently-critically pointing to logical nonlinearity’, i.e., to dialectic, and to human self-consciousness]:  In all of the above contradictions (which are merely selections from an indefinite number) there is a common characteristic, which we may describe as self-reference or reflexiveness.” [Bertrand Russell, Alfred North Whitehead, Prinicpia Mathematica, vol. I, Merchant Books, LaVergne, TN, 2010, p. 64.].”

“Elsewhere, Russell noted that the “propositional function” expressing, in the Principia Mathematica formalism, the famous “Russell Paradox”, which crashed Frege’s system -- the proposition about the set of all sets which are not members of themselves [Is it or isn’t it a member of itself?] -- is of a peculiar, quadratic, kind, instead of being of the ordinary, first degree, or linear, kind.”

“That is, this “paradoxical”, or “contradictory” propositional function is of second degree -- it is a nonlinear logical function. ...

... In ancient Greek mythology, the word “Eros” named a divine force that was then sometimes seen as ‘‘‘ever combining the stuff of the «kosmos» into ever higher unities’’’.”

“With reference to that mythopoeic intuition, and despite its somewhat mystical overtones, we can well describe the F.E.D. DialecticalTheory of Everything, Dialectic of Nature Meta-Equation as a model of the empirically-observed cosmological process of erosis, which is our name for the trend of self-re-iterating, scale-escalating, «aufheben» meta-«monad»-ization that we see all around us, as the concrete process binding ‘‘‘the stuff of the «kosmos» into ever higher unities’’’.”

"The entry on “Eros” in an historical lexicon of ancient Greek philosophical terms is quite informative in this regard:  ...Eros is one of the many personifications that appear in the prephilosophical cosmogonies.  But unlike most of the others that represent states, e.g., Night, Chaos, Earth, Heaven..., Eros is a force.  In the Orphic cosmogonies he unites all and from these unions is born the race of the immortal gods...; in Hesiod he is among the first to emerge from Chaos and draws all else together...; according to Pherecydes..., when Zeus wishes to create (demiourgein) he changes into Eros.  Eros, then, is a motive force on a sexual model used to explain the “marriage” and “birth” of the mythological elements, a species of “First Mover” in the ancient cosmogonies, and was recognized as such by Aristotle (Meta. 984b).  And even as the mythological trappings began to fall away in the speculations of the physikoi Eros, the mover, or now, more frequently, Aphrodite, continued to play a role in conjoining the opposite powers.
[F. E. Peters, Greek Philosophical Terms, New York:  New York University Press, 1967, pp. 62-63.].”

“Indeed, the symbol at the core of our very logo is a depiction of the ‘“conjoining of opposite powers”’. ...

... It is not the case that, when the dialectic of «aufheben» self-meta-monad-ization creates new ontologies -- new kinds of units -- that they then merely populate somehow pre-ordained, somehow pre-existing, yet, ‘til then, empirically empty levels       /layers         /scales of qualo-fractal ontological content-structure.”

On the contrary, the dialectical [«aufheben»] self-meta-monad-ization of the monads or units that had formed part of an existing, previously-created qualo-fractal scale, creates, for the first time, a new qualo-fractal scale [one exhibiting ‘‘‘[self-]similarity’’’ in relation to the previously-created scales of cosmological ontology] that was never previously existent, newly created by the very act of their «aufheben» self-meta-monad-ization. ...

... the epitomic instantiations of our concept of multi-ontic cumula, as an external[-to-mind], physical actuality, is the molecular/atomic/... ‘‘‘proto-stellar cloud’’’.

“From this ‘‘‘proto-stellar cloud’’’ as ‘‘‘premise’’’, as ‘‘‘ground’’’, so much else in the onto-dynamasis of our «kosmos» has already followed, and still will follow, we hold -- in our solar system at the very least.”
“From such ‘‘‘proto-stellar clouds’’’, stars are born.”

Later, with sufficient reproductive accumulation of higher atomic species, produced by those first stars, and by their successors, themselves, and deposited, by them, into the thus increasingly metalized interstellar media of the galaxies, planets are born -- as we lately know so much more than before.”

Later still, there is born all of the life both within and atop [some] planetary lithospheres [and planetary hydrospheres], we expect, in their biospheres, and in their noospheres.”

“These ‘‘‘proto-stellar’’’ “molecular clouds, self-developing into “accretion disks, begin with an ontology of, yes, “molecules, but also with one of exo-molecular, pre-molecular, and proto-molecularatoms and more.”

“At length, these ‘‘‘proto-stellar clouds’’’ give birth to stars, to planets, and, in many cases, we hold, to living cells, to multi-cellular organisms, to animal societies, to human societies, and, we expect, to the META-human and beyond. ...
