- A Philosopher's Melancholy -- Theme of Expectation
A Philosopher's Melancholy (Philosocom's Directory on Competency) (Philosocom's Disability Directory) (Background music) The philosopher, Tomasio Rubinshtein. I feel that there is no hope, no ambition for the following: To be completely right in the head, To not understand so much to the point I won't be sad! Philosophy, is how I mentally survive, A reality I maintain in order to thrive! I want to show her, I want to show her, That I can still do good, still do good, and be good! I want to prove to her, I want to prove to her, That I prevail with a positive attitude. The philosopher, Tomasio Rubinshtein, Spent most of my life in front of a computer screen, With little human interaction came in my way, With very few people who me completely understand! I have ascended, into a renown genius, Who still wants to forsake humanity! I want to show her, as she requested, That of good wellbeing I am still capable. I vowed to show her, as she demanded, That my wellbeing is something to be fully addressed. The philosopher, Tomasio Rubinshtein, Few people understand me beyond my name, Despite my will, to rectify the world , my aim, Being like others will quite never be the same! Grains of sadness, fill my torso, As I write and write, forever, and more! I will show her, yes I will show her, That my wellbeing is relevant, relevant!. I will show her, yes, I will show her, What I can do despite what I can't. But will it come true; will my plot ever succeed? Who really knows? The impact of my deeds?
- The Rubinshteinic Theory On Contentism -- Why Emotions Can be Weakness
Alex Mos's Synopsis "Contentism" refers to the shift in human relationships from evaluating people to judging them based on the content they create and post online. Content creation and consumption, empowered by AI technology, is one of the most growing-in-demand resources in the market today. Consumers value content but increasingly don't care for the humans who created it. The lack of connection between readers and content creators is profound in philosophy. Mentioning logical fallacies can minimize human elements, including emotions. In philosophy, emotions are a weakness and can bias perception . The solution to contentism and growing existential solitude is to appreciate humans beyond the content they provide. In extra notes, the author describes the downsides and solutions to the mental harm caused by content creation and navigating through "cancel culture's" sensitivity. (Philosocom's Directory On Emotions) (Social Media Directory) The term I would like to coin, "contentism", refers to the gradual shift in our relationships with other human beings in contemporary times. Today, anyone can be a content creator by simply posting things online. It is through the lens of the content we see on our screens that we judge and evaluate other people. This evaluation exists for two reasons: Some of us may not appreciate other human beings as more than creators, and because we lack better ways to evaluate humans in the digital world. Even by speaking, you create. Thus, your basic value in human society is significantly measured by whatever content you may be creating out of your mouth and behavior. Contentism can be seen as a contemporary variant of behaviorism , a philosophy of the mind that claims our mentality only exists in our behavior. This rationale is flawed because our true mentality can be well hidden under the guise of a behavior that indicates otherwise. The same can be argued about contentism, and even more so. After all, it is quite easier to mask and deceive behind a screen than behind your own face. In this day and age, content is king . Many of us may live for the sake of consuming content. It is, in fact, one of the most growing-in-demand resources in the market today that practically everyone can produce . Social media platforms merely cashed in on the human need to create and consume content, and earned their power and finances in accordance to the outlets they've been providing for their own gain. Their popularity essentially stems from feeding our egos through features of gratification, such as "likes" and "followers", as reward for our presence there. It is even possible to create content out of consuming it. Reaction videos are such examples. The AI revolution cashed in on that as well, by being able to generate content by demand out of prompts. The problem with contentism stems from the difficulty of connecting the human, authentic element with the desire to generate and consume content . Your social media followers may follow you not because of who you are as a human being, but because of your content . A social media follower is not necessarily a supporter of you. They are a supporter of what you produce and upload online. Hence why it is not the same as the traditional follower who is loyal to you or supports you. As such, a follower of Jesus Christ is far more loyal than a TikTok follower. I soon realized that I am basically insignificant without the generation of content. I realized that people will not care about me at all if I did not produce content, or produced that of lower quality. Parents, family and your partner may love you for simply being. Anyone else would only appreciate you by your behavior and by what you generate for others to consume. Because why would strangers care for other strangers? This world is not built on human appreciation but on sets of personalized interests. In the age of contentism, you are defined and valued by your content and not by yourself as a person. Relevance is relative . Relative to time and to the quality of product. Those who will prove their relevance by both, more than others, will also be valued and appreciated more. All in the name of two: Being liked and giving the people what they want. Those who fail in both, can easily be shoved aside to the corners of society, and live as unproductive outsiders. The reason why ad hominem is a fallacy justifies the disconnection between the human element and the element of what they produce. People are not going to care for your emotions when they read you or watch you, because you as a being are irrelevant by yourself. They will mostly if not only care for the content, for the product. If your emotions get in the way, they would either minimize the worth of your feelings or simply find other content creators who are less emotional than you. This can show how humans can care for each other very little, when what connects between them is the content and nothing more. This is especially true in philosophy because logic can be a very cold , relentless tool, despite how essential it is. It's quite hard to be a good philosopher when you're constantly and impractically offended by reasonable counter-arguments. Technically, the mentioning of logical fallacies can be used to minimize the human element, and that includes their emotions. The Nirvana fallacy may discard your hopes for a better future. Whataboutism may discard a potential subtext where you are expressing your hurt feelings. Arguments from anecdotal evidence may discard the person's experience entirely only because their experience is insufficient for the argument to be made publicly. (Note: One of the reasons I've been revamping my articles a lot is to eliminate versions of articles that were purely written from anecdotal experience, which is of course fallacious). The solution to the contentist approach to human beings is to regard human beings as existing beyond the content they provide , and to appreciate humans in general as such. This can do good for the moral goal to decrease unnecessary suffering in this world, by letting people know that they matter despite their behavior and what else they express Until then, do remember that emotions are a form of weakness , especially in the cold field of philosophy. Your emotions don't matter much when you make an argument because it does not matter what the arguments you make, make you feel. In addition, emotions can bias your perception to the point of misleading others without intention, by minimizing opposing evidence, or by discarding it altogether. We may live to believe that expressing emotion is something negative, especially as men, unfortunately. As such, our love and appreciation from this world may be conditioned by our ability to repress emotion in the name of the task at hand. I wouldn't be surprised if the same is also applicable to women, even if not as much. To be a better philosopher.... I killed much of my emotions . They were weighing me down, they were in the way. I slowly turned from an emotional being to a cold, calculated thinker who rarely feels emotion. Yes, it is possible to get rid of emotions . In reality, I feel through the senses, not through the "heart". It was necessary to rid much of it to survive and thrive in this field, as well as to endure the contentist world we all live in. Some may appreciate me as a person, but let's be more honest, okay? Without my writings I would've been just another stranger to many of you Would you really care for me, then? Probably not. It's one of the things that nurture a growing age of solitude, even when you are in a physical company. Existential solitude ... might as well only be solved if we cared about each other more as people and less as content providers. And that is the dark side of Bill Gates' quote of "Content is King". Humans are no longer the kings of Earth. Content is . And that is exactly why the A.I content revolution could be a threat to many. That threat is one that isn't only on friends but also on partners. In the absence of human appreciation, we may only appreciate whatever content we consume and like. Nothing. More. Feel free to admit the truth , even between the halls of your own mind. Admit the truth, and Hail Philosocom . Extra notes I: Mental Harm and Its Solutions Content creation, while capable of growing your recognition , can definitely have some downsides for your mental well-being. Here are some of the common dangers: The Comparison Trap: Social media is full of perfectly curated feeds for our own addictive amusemen t. It's easy to constantly compare your work to others, leading to feelings of inadequacy and hindering creativity by feeling unworthy in relation. It's solved by working hard on your craft and by setting goals that can be accomplished within your lifetime. Pressure to Perform: Platforms often prioritize content with high engagement, creating pressure to constantly making out ideas and chase trends. This relentless demand can lead to burnout and ruin creative flow. This can be solved by creating your own platform and making it attractive enough for people to not only visit but stay in it. Given the competition , this is no easy feat, and one I'm trying to do with Philosocom. Obsessive Validation Seeking : Likes, comments and follower counts can become addictive, turning into a quest for external validation. Basing self-worth on these metrics can be dangerous and lead to anxiety. Like with body image , however, it is solved psychologically, not statistically. Cyber aggression : Content creators are unfortunately exposed to a lot of negativity online, from rude comments to full-blown harassment. This can be emotionally damaging and affect mental health if we choose to remain highly sensitive and not work on ourselves to become tougher. Extra notes II: Dealing With Cancel Culture's Sensitivity In the age of cancel culture, content creation can backfire in a number of ways, potentially leading to social rejection, damaged reputation , and even career predicaments. Here's how: Unearthed Controversial Past Posts: Social media posts from years ago, made with a different perspective or humor, can be found online and be used to paint you in a negative light with the use of rhetoric that takes advantage of people's biased thinking. Misinterpreted Content: By clipping or quoting specific things you said, your words can be taken out of context and could be taken out of context and misunderstood, leading to accusations and backlash. It's your job to protect your reputation by properly explaining all that needs to be explained. Offending a Particular Group: Even if unintentional, your content might offend a certain group of people, triggering outrage and potentially harming your reputation. This can be avoided by avoiding any kind of discriminatory attitude, based on race , gender and so on. Not doing so can eliminate wide portions of people from reading or listening to what you have to say. Cancel Culture Pile-on: Once the cancel culture snowball starts rolling, it can be difficult to stop. A minor misstep can snowball into a full-blown online attack. You might want to study other content creators and their downfall. Creators like Onision can teach us adults to stay away from minors. Here are some tips to navigate this tricky landscape: Be mindful of what you post: Consider the potential long-term implications of your content before publishing. Remember that even if you remove a content piece, it might be saved and be used against you. Thinking like a competent villain could help you . Avoid sensitive topics: If unsure about a topic, it's best to not act on petty emotion, and choose a topic with a far less risk of damaging your public persona. Be respectful and inclusive: Avoid stereotypes, generalizations, and humor that could be offensive to specific groups of people. Take responsibility for your content: If something you posted causes offense, apologize sincerely. Fail to apologize that way and you can only make things bad for yourself. A case example is Will Smith's apology, which is considered dishonest by some .
- Escaping Inevitable Doom - The Space Nomad Theory
Abstract Earth won't last forever. In the extremely distant future, it will become uninhabitable due to extreme temperatures or be engulfed by the Sun's expansion. Our reign as the dominant species will therefore come to an end, and ironically, it will likely be caused by the Sun, our very source of life. Our descendants will face a colossal challenge to ensure humanity's survival : leaving the solar system and finding a new home among the stars. The Sun will eventually die out, and its diminishing energy will render the solar system uninhabitable. Unless they find a way to shield themselves from harmful radiation, our descendants will have to embark on a quest for a new Earth. This interstellar voyage will require revolutionary technologies and a radical shift in our approach. We will need to colonize other planets and become citizens of the universe, exploring the cosmos and adapting our civilization to this new reality. (Click here for Philosocom's Escapist-Related Directory) (Philosocom's Subcategory on Aliens and Outer Space) (Background music) The Inevitable End of Earth (Space Nomad Theory) The fact that countless generations of people have inhabited Earth for thousands ( if not millions ) of years does not guarantee our eternal reign as the planet's dominant species. Planet Earth's lifespan is finite , and in the extremely distant future, it will either be rendered uninhabitable due to extreme temperatures or consumed by the Sun's expansion. It is, therefore, crucial to recognize that our world's end will likely be caused by the very source of life itself – the Sun. Regardless, the implication of our world being destroyed eventually , even if it will only likely be hundreds of millions of years into the future, means that our very far descendants will have to face the greatest challenge humanity has ever faced in the name of its survival—escaping the solar system to find another home. The Inevitable Journey of Humanity's Survival Our Sun is the life-giving force that sustains Earth and the entire solar system. It's evident by the fact that it holds them all together. However, its existence is not eternal. In the distant future, the Sun will evolve into a red dwarf , exhausting its fusion fuel and becoming a cold, dim star, known as a white dwarf . Eventually, the white dwarf will be completely dead, becoming a black dwarf . The black dwarf, by the way, is currently a concept in-theory, as it's probable that the universe is too young for black dwarves to ever exist. The point is that the sun generates its heat, which is essential for all life on Earth . The energy that the Sun consumes as fuel is known as hydrogen . Although hydrogen can, in theory, be renewable infinitely , it is important to mention that "Hydrogen is only renewable if the process used in its extraction is also renewable ." Since the sun is burning hydrogen, an extraction method which isn't renewable, then its natural lifespan will render our solar system uninhabitable, marking the end of life as we know it. Unless our descendants find a way to shield themselves from the Sun's harmful radiation, the only option for humanity's survival lies in escaping the solar system and seeking a new home among the stars. This monumental task will require a fundamental change of approach in our technological capabilities, propelling us into an era of interstellar travel and space colonization. The vast distances between stars pose a significant challenge. For the record, NASA calculations estimate that it should take 2 to 3 years to get to Mars in a crewed shuttle . Our far-future leaders will need to install a sense of urgency among their people, emphasizing the looming danger even if its effects are not yet apparent. Colonizing planets within our solar system will only provide a temporary respite, as they too will face the Sun's implications of its inevitable demise. The idea of abandoning our ancestral home, Earth, can be emotionally heart-breaking, as our long descendants will have to leave everything they, us and our ancestors ever knew. Future humanity will need to convince its members to leave behind all that they know and cherish, venturing into the unknown depths of outer space. Emotional attachment to our home planet may hinder some from embracing this exodus. However, the harsh realities of cosmic evolution dictate that survival necessitates adaptation and change. Such is the greatest benefit for humanity at large to learn how to overcome its emotional dependencies. The ethics regarding those unwilling to leave Earth comes forth – should we force them into escape shuttles or allow them to perish with their home-world? Should we respect their desire to die with their home planet or their fear of the unknown ? What about criminals and other social outcasts? Should they be included in the evacuation efforts or left to fend for themselves? These ethical dilemmas will demand careful consideration. In the end, the preservation of humanity relies upon our collective ability to confront the inevitable and embark on a journey of cosmic exploration, embracing the vastness of the universe as our new home. And yes, should we as a species live long enough, not only we will have to live this solar system, but also the next one we will find. In the name of our ultimate survival, we will have to become interstellar nomads. The long-term survival of humanity depends on our ability to develop and master space colonization and interstellar travel technologies. By expanding our reach beyond Earth and the solar system, we can ensure that our species endures, adapting to the ever-changing cosmos and carrying the legacy of life into the depths of the ever-expanding universe. The Imperative of Interstellar Travel What should be certain , regardless of how and when we will reach our demise, is that most if not all planets are not eternal , and even if they themselves will survive, it does not mean that all life forms within them will indeed survive along with them . Therefore, interstellar travel, along with any other outer Space Nomad Theory technology, is imperative for our long-term survival. Hopefully, becoming an astronaut in the far future won't be something extraordinary. It should be imperative that anyone, in a theoretical future, will have access to outer space education just as public education is accessible today. Similar to many people have access to computers, and later on, smartphones. Getting used to advanced technologies must be common in order to survive in a dynamic reality. In order to adapt, our descendants will have to become not only law-abiding humans, but good colonists, who will be able to sacrifice their current life in the inevitable exchange of a new one, somewhere far in the stars above. It goes to show how morality, even if inter-subjective, is necessary for the survival of individuals within a larger collective. The vastness of the universe presents both immense challenges and boundless opportunities. While the journey to other habitable planets may be extremely difficult and unpredictable, the potential rewards are immeasurable. It's not only about forming a greater future of humanity, but also about further unlocking the mysteries of the universe itself. It's about building entire nations, communications and economies around the concept of interstellar travel, because it might as well be as common as driving cars in highways or traveling between countries and continents today. As such, We must transition from being mere inhabitants of Earth to becoming citizens of the universe. Innovation will become important, more than ever, for us to not only understand reality but also to operate better in it, thus surviving. And as I wrote in my guide about surviving in capitalism , we can survive best when we prosper, as prosperity is evidence of a competent survivor. And of course, survival is gained once we adjust to our environment . Hence why prosperity is essential to avoid misfortunes, ranging from evitable deaths to the possible extinction of the entire human race across the stars. The vast potential potential rewards far outweigh the risks, should we be able to cooperate good enough in the name of our collective existence within an infinite, dark and dangerous universe devoid of food, water and oxygen. Understand how imperative it is to abide to this social contract existent in contemporary countries as well, thus making them business entities (as a contract is, by definition, a deal) By embracing our curiosity, adventurous spirit and rationality, we can embark on a voyage that will redefine our place in the universe and secure the future of our species. And yet, we won't necessarily get to endure forever, but at least we will extend our historical lifespan independently of this.

It showcases his dedication to shaping a better society, informed by his understanding of democracy and societal dynamics. In summary, Tomasio Rubinshtein is not just a remarkable philosopher and writer but also a true friend who continually inspires me and others around him.
