Today on the Matt Walsh Show, a snow storm caused some problems for world leaders on their way to a climate summit to talk about the dangers of global warming. The irony is obvious, and hilarious, but the underlying agenda isn't nearly as funny. Also, a new study shows that patients who get "gender affirming care" still struggle with mental problems after the "treatment." No surprise there. And a trans YouTuber tries to shame a guy at a pizza shop for "misgendering" him. Plus, a black journalist writes a lengthy article recounting all of the racism he has allegedly experienced over the years.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: For Civilization and Against Niceness, published by Gabriel Alfour on November 21, 2023 on LessWrong. Scott Alexander wrote a great essay, called " In Favor of Niceness, Community and Civilization". Scott is a great writer, and conveys what I love about civilization in a beautiful way. Unfortunately, the essay conflates two behaviors. Though to be fair, those two behaviors often go hand in hand: Being uncivil, as in: breaking the norms of civilization. Being mean, as in: being not-nice, unpleasant to be around. The following paragraph embodies this conflation quite well: Liberalism does not conquer by fire and sword. Liberalism conquers by communities of people who agree to play by the rules, slowly growing until eventually an equilibrium is disturbed. Its battle cry is not "Death to the unbelievers!" but "If you're nice, you can join our cuddle pile!" I love civilization! Democracies let me politically coordinate with people internationally, socially liberal systems grant me freedom to be as weird as I want in private, and economically liberal systems let me try many exotic kinds of positive-sum trades with people! None of this would be possible without civilization. I agree, Civilization is great. But I don't want to join your cuddle pile! Civilization is often about being not nice As Scott Alexander says, civilization is about "agreeing to play by the rules." But this is not about niceness. On the contrary, playing by the rules often requires being not nice. [1] While we want companies to abide by strong regulations, and not cause negative externalities (like pollution), we also do not want them to be nice to each other. This is the core of antitrust law, that aims to minimize anti-competitive practices. More concretely, the goal of companies is to capture value (make profits), while the goal of free-markets is for companies to create value for consumers. The way those two incentives are aligned is through competition. By getting companies to compete, they need to keep improving compared to other companies to keep their profits, increasing the share of the value enjoyed by consumers In other words: We want companies to compete as fiercely as possible, thereby driving quality up and pushing prices down. As Adam Smith wrote: "It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest." This is a feature of economic liberalism. Similarly, in a court of law, while we want all lawyers present to strictly adhere to their local equivalent of the Model Rules of Professional Conduct, we don't want the defense attorney and the prosecutor to be nice to each other. When younger, I could not understand attorneys that defended people who they knew were criminals. Weren't these attorneys making society strictly worse? My confusion went deeper when I learnt that they had an ethical obligation to defend people who they knew were criminals. But it makes sense: the attorney doesn't issue the final sentence, the judge does. And the judge doesn't know if the person is innocent or not, or when they're guilty, how guilty they are. To solve this, judiciary systems go through something close to an Adversarial Collaboration. Both sides need to bring forward as much evidence for their case as possible. Only then can the judge make the best decision with as much information as possible. When the defense attorney makes their case, they are not changing the sentence, they are giving more information to the judge, who then decides on the sentence. If you think about it, it is obvious: it is better for the judge to have more information. And to get there, you need people to optimize for both sides of the story, not focus on the one we already believe to be correct. This is why prosecutors and defense attorneys sh...

Résumé : Témoignage exceptionnel de Seyyed Hossein Nasr. Seyyed Hossein Nasr est professeur d'études islamiques à l'université américaine George Washington. Il est né en 1933 à Téhéran. Il a étudié en Iran et aux États-Unis (physique, géologie, géophysique, histoire des sciences). La « philosophia perennis », fondée sur les principes métaphysiques universels et intemporels, constitue la trame essentielle de sa pensée et de sa spiritualité. Il est un auteur prolifique, qui compte à son actif plus de cinquante livres et plus de cinq cents articles : si l'Islam et le soufisme sont au cœur de son œuvre, il traite aussi plus généralement de philosophie, de religion, de spiritualité, de science, d'art, d'architecture, de littérature, d'écologie et de dialogues inter-culturel et inter-religieux. Citons quelques ouvrages traduits en français : Islam, perspectives et réalités [« Ideals and Realities of Islam »], Buchet/Chastel, 1991 ; réédition : Tasnîm, 2019 ; Sciences et savoir en islam [« Science and Civilization in Islam »], Sindbad, 1995 ; réédition : Tasnîm, 2023 ; La religion et l'ordre de la nature [« Religion and the Order of Nature »], Entrelacs, 2004. ------------------------------------------------------ En ce mois de novembre 2023, Conscience Soufie a le plaisir de dédier son cycle « Hommage » au philosophe et grand spécialiste de l'Islam persan, Henry Corbin, dont nous célébrons cette année 2023 le 120e anniversaire de sa naissance. Henry Corbin (1903-1978), philosophe, germaniste, iranologue, arabisant, étudiera avec acharnement les textes des écoles philosophiques de l'Iran du 12e au 19e siècle. Tout était à faire en ce domaine : établir les textes, les éditer, les traduire, les présenter. Il fera connaître les richesses de l'école d'Ispahan à l'Occident et à l'Orient. Ses ouvrages restent à nos jours l'une des plus grandes expositions du soufisme persan classique disponible pour un public occidental. Grâce à lui, l'Occident découvrira trois grand figures : Sohravardî, le grand platonicien de Perse (L'Archange empourpré, 1976), Ibn ‘Arabi, le grand maître (L'Imagination créatrice dans le soufisme d'Ibn 'Arabī 1958 ; 2e éd. 1977), et Mollā Sādrā Shīrāzī (Livre des pénétrations métaphysiques, 1964). Il laissera également deux grandes références majeures en philosophie islamique : Histoire de la philosophie islamique, et En Islam iranien (t. I et II , 1971 ; t. III et IV , 1973). La bibliographie complète, ainsi que de nombreuses ressources sont disponibles sur le site de l'association des amis de Corbin ici: https://www.amiscorbin.com/ Vous pouvez retrouver un dossier spécial « Henry Corbin » sur notre site : https://consciencesoufie.com/henry-corbin/

It's now barren and dry, with no one able to work the land anymore.Severe water shortages in Iraq have been affecting the cultivation of the country's signature anbar rice — Al-Feroun's main crop. The water has been drying up because of a combination of climate change and geopolitics.“[There's] no rice, no vegetables, [nothing],” Al-Feroun said. “There [aren't any plants], only wheat. This is the main river — dry.” Salah Fareeq Al-Feroun standing on his farm that is now dry and barren, Al-Meshkhab, Iraq, Aug. 30, 2023. Credit: Sara Hassan/The World Al-Feroun used to grow rice in the summer and wheat in the winter. Now he can only grow wheat. Because of the water shortages, he can no longer grow anbar rice, a long-grain white rice with a high fat ratio that is unique to Iraq, and which is traditionally served with every meal. The word anbar — sometimes also written as amber in English — is an Arabic word that refers to the rice's perfume-like fragrance. X post by @MohammedBaraka Credit: Mohammed Baraka/X post “Amber rice is very significant for its smell and it also [has a] very delicious taste,” al-Feroun said through a translator.For the past two years, though, the Iraqi government has banned farmers from cultivating the rice because it is a water-intensive crop. The paddy where the rice grows has to be fully submerged in water and takes around five months to mature. The government has only allowed for minimal farming of the crop in certain areas to preserve the seeds for future cultivation.Importing riceThis has forced Iraqis to import rice from other countries, including Iran, Pakistan and India. The imported rice has a different taste than anbar.“There used to be five types of anbar rice, but now there are only two,” explained Ahmed Salim, the manager of a store at Al-Warda Market in central Baghdad, as he poured out some rice into packets for weighing. “And the prices have more than doubled. We depend on Pakistani rice — Basmati.” Ahmed Salim, the manager of a store at Al-Warda Market, weighs packets of rice, central Baghdad, Sept. 24, 2023.

Credit: Sara Hassan/The World This past summer, temperatures in Iraq reached nearly 122 degrees Fahrenheit, and the country has experienced years of persistent drought.Extreme heat has also devastated crops in neighboring Turkey, which is where the Tigris and Euphrates rivers begin. There are water-sharing agreements among the countries that surround these rivers: Iraq, Iran, Turkey and Syria.Chibani says that the effects of climate change are exacerbated by poor governance and regional politics.“The impact of climate change will make geopolitics more obvious in the near future because close coordination will not be an option, it will be mandatory.”Achref Chibani, climate journalist“It's a combination of both, but the impact of climate change will make geopolitics more obvious in the near future because close coordination will not be an option, it will be mandatory,” Chibani said.

Credit: Courtesy of Hamzeh Hadad He added that Turkey has also faced droughts and lower levels of rainfall and snowmelt in its southern mountains, which means less water is fed into the rivers. Meanwhile, Turkey has also embarked on massive construction projects in recent years, including the building of dams and hydroelectric power plants along the Tigris and Euphrates, which Chibani says is another factor.“And those decisions vis-a-vis projects in Turkey are affecting the quota of water in Iraq,” Chibani explained. Plus, the Iraqi government hasn't been involved in close negotiations over regional water-sharing because it's been preoccupied with its own internal security issues.International collaborationAl-Feroun, the farmer who can no longer grow anbar in his fields, agreed that climate change is a factor, but that geopolitics also plays a major role.In addition to being a farmer, he spent 25 years teaching at an agricultural secondary school for the Ministry of Education, which has given him insight into how geopolitics has played into what's happening on his farm.

He said that the government has to move beyond making visits and promises.“Our government has to have serious conversations,” he said, “not just with Turkey, but with the United Nations, the Arab League, the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation and the Non-Aligned Movement to get our rights.”After generations of cultivating the fields, he hopes that his children will also have the chance to be able to continue the family legacy.Enas Razak Ibrahim contributed to this report.Related: This startup is fighting to keep Iraq's palm trees alive

21 Life-Changing Messages from an Advanced Alien Civilization | Plejaren's Hope for Humanity Part 2

Higher Density Living Podcast

The Plejaren claims to have been visiting Earth for thousands of years, observing and interacting with humanity. They are considered to be a highly advanced and spiritually enlightened civilization, whose mission is to assist humanity in its evolutionary progress, in stark contrast to Henoch Prophecies, this segment discusses the positive orientation and hope for mankind. This episode continues the progress report of the Plejaren named Quetzal, in the Ra Contact Report 215. On a similar content, you can check out Higher Density Living's episode on Henoch Prophecies on the negative overview of humanity.    Quetzal outlines general the Contact Report 215 presenting the Plejaren's vision for a world beyond negative polarities and orientation, emphasizing the importance of evolution and responsibility of Free Will.   The report highlights twenty-one key aspirations for humanity, including the abandonment of aggression and the pursuit of true peace and brotherhood. The Plejaren call for sustainable population growth, the end of world hunger, and responsible resource management. They emphasize the need to prioritize the environment, science, and the sanctity of life. Quetzal encourages embracing diversity, ending discrimination, and fostering universal oneness. Additionally, they highlight the importance of individual self-growth and self-realization as learning catalysts by prioritizing true values over materialism. The Plejaren seek a world where leadership is accountable, nations prioritize well-being over war profiteering, and individuals becoming agents of positive change. Ultimately, their final wish is for humanity to embrace their inner truth and align themselves with their innermost unity of  Creation.   In response to Quetzal's observations and recommendations, it is clear that the Plejaren hold a deep understanding of the potential for humanity to evolve into a more enlightened and harmonious civilization. Their emphasis on spiritual development, peaceful coexistence, environmental protection, knowledge and wisdom, and unity and collaboration aligns with the values that many individuals on Earth also strive for.   To prioritize spiritual development, it is important for individuals to engage in practices such as meditation, self-reflection, and introspection. By connecting with our inner selves, we can cultivate a deeper sense of purpose, compassion, and empathy, which will naturally lead to a more harmonious and compassionate society. Everyone must start by himself first, swaying a free, positive, and happy life to share unto others. In this regard, Alexander and Jason discuss Free Will, further expanding the need to explain and reason the context of Free Will in spiritual evolution. Understanding other people's Free Will is an act of unconditional love. We need to allow people to make mistakes and not judge.    Go make your choice. Go do your own thing. Seek the world out there and experience what you want to experience be a human being and gain knowledge and wisdom.   There's an effect that happens from you making choices. Peaceful coexistence can be achieved by actively seeking nonviolent solutions to conflicts, both on an individual and global scale. This requires a shift in mindset from competition to cooperation, from separation/othering to unity/harmony, and from aggression to understanding. Education and awareness programs that promote conflict resolution, empathy, and emotional intelligence can play a vital role in fostering a culture of peace.    In affirmation to the Billy Meier material, environmental protection is crucial for the well-being of our planet and future generations. We must take responsibility for our actions and adopt sustainable practices in our daily lives. This includes reducing our carbon footprint, conserving resources, supporting renewable energy, and advocating for environmental policies that prioritize the health of the planet.   Knowledge and wisdom are the cornerstones of progress and growth. By encouraging critical thinking, lifelong learning, and the sharing of knowledge, we can collectively solve complex problems and make informed decisions. Investing in education and promoting scientific research and innovation are key components in advancing society.   Unity and collaboration are essential for overcoming challenges and creating a brighter future. By embracing diversity, respecting different perspectives, and working together towards common goals, we can harness the collective intelligence and creativity of humanity. Building strong communities and fostering a sense of belonging will strengthen our ability to address global issues and create positive change.   As we reflect on the vision for a better world, it is important to recognize that the responsibility for creating this future lies in our hands. We must actively engage in personal and collective transformation, embracing the values and principles outlined by the Plejaren. By doing so, we can move towards a society that embodies peace, harmony, and spiritual enlightenment. The 21 messages can be synthesized and broken down into five distinct themes. Here are some of Quetzal's general observations and recommendations to improve human life:   1. Spiritual Development: The Plejaren wish for humans to prioritize their spiritual growth and development. They encourage us to explore our inner selves, increase our consciousness, and strive to live in harmony with  laws that govern our universe and in one with Creation.   2. Peaceful Coexistence: The Plejaren hope for a world where peace and harmony prevail. They encourage humans to find peaceful solutions to conflicts, both on an individual and global level, and to treat others with kindness, respect, and understanding. They advocate for universal peace and disarmament of destructive thought and negative competition among great powers.   3. Environmental Protection: The Plejaren stress the importance of taking care of our planet and its delicate, natural ecosystems. They urge humans to adopt sustainable practices, reduce and eliminate manmade pollution, preserve biodiversity, and stop climate change to ensure a healthy and balanced environment for future generations.    4. Knowledge and Wisdom: The Plejaren value knowledge and wisdom, and they wish for humans to embrace a lifelong pursuit of learning. They encourage critical thinking, open-mindedness, and the sharing of knowledge for the betterment of society and human race as a whole. The best experience you could possibly lead and then when someone asks you a question with knowledge and wisdom and love you can answer that   5. Unity and Collaboration:  This emphasize the significance of unity among humans. People around you will start to push through things that are difficult catalysts that oppose you take them as learning experiences and you can continue to push harder and further until you can find unity. They believe that by working together, setting aside differences, and fostering collaboration, we can overcome challenges and create a brighter future for all. Having unity means cohesiveness and leverage a higher state of consciousness evolution.     Ultimately, the Plejaren wish for humanity's evolution towards greater understanding, harmony, and spiritual enlightenment. the metaphors are essentially endless but everybody needs to be their own optimistic leader then you need to be a leader of your own life. At Higher Density Living, we hope to better understand and make the deliverable course of action to create a better life.    As always, Higher Density Living reserves no dogma because only the truth prevails in the universe. History is judged by enlightened communities, and the Higher Density Living podcast is committed to the same cause. You are the center of the universe.

Here at Enduring Interest we are in the midst of exploring books and essays that address the question of speech and censorship. Forthcoming episodes will discuss authors including Walter Berns, Irving Kristol, Herbert Marcuse, James Madison, and Pierre Manent. However, this month we're pausing on that theme to discuss a newly published book by the great French thinker and writer Raymond Aron. On April 4, 1978 Aron brought his academic career to close with a final lecture at the College de France. It has been translated into English and brought out by Princeton University Press with the title of Liberty and Equality. It is a short but penetrating lecture which provides much needed precision and clarity on the question of liberty or liberties.My guest is Daniel J. Mahoney, an expert on Aron's thought. He has been a guest on this show before—he was here last time to discuss Aron's classic book The Opium of the Intellectuals. Dan is Professor of Political Science Emeritus at Assumption University. His latest books include The Statesman as Thinker, Recovering Politics, Civilization and the Soul, and The Other Solzhenitsyn: Telling the Truth about a Misunderstood Writer and Thinker. He's the co-editor of the indispensable volume The Solzhenitsyn Reader: New and Essential Writings. His first book, The Liberal Political Science of Raymond Aron, was published in 1992.
