100%. responsibility=power. The truly wicked and truly amazing people in this world know this and use it to their advantage. For everyone else it will not be very popular because it takes a lot more work, emotional work and discomfort to take responsibility for your own actions and emotions.
this assumes power is more important than ethics... which is to say being powerless is not the worst thing in the world. its not a proof that making oneself powerless is self evidently the wrong choice. obviously if one takes off all limits one could devise all sorts of schemes to get one's way. the question is such an approach in anyone's ultimate best interest and the answer is likely no. taking absolute responsibility for oneself sounds good, but it directly relates to the nobility of one's aims. lots of people stop at nothing to achieve what they want but what they want is bad. if they instead chose to be "powerless" in the matter, it would be a step up. its kind of anti social to simply choose power for its own sake, even though it invokes "responsibility" its actually responsibility toward no one, the self, or a limited tribe. its illusory responsibility because it frames responsibility itself in terms of a narrow range of people who deserve consideration. once ethics encompasses a broad enough group power has to give way, so you can't have perfect responsibility and perfect power. nested in this notion of "responsibility" is an ethical sleight of hand that presupposes a narrow range of persons accountable to combined with being willing to stop at nothing is the perfect blend, when that is essentially just a restatement of me and mine > everyone else. is that really perfect responsibility? at the end of the day I can't respect someone who is all powerful and only answerable to a few, even if that authority is me, because that person is essentially anti social, and the truth is, if we want to be anti social achieving any goal is much easier, so they're not really as powerful as they seem either. if we don't refrain from any baseness suddenly most tasks become much easier, but that doesn't mean one is either empowered or responsible, they're just sort of clueless. these same people would invoke notions of power and responsibility and they're entirely lead around by the nose by unintended consequences from not acknowledging these other forces that control them. as if saying because they take "responsibility" it means nothing controls them, when that is nothing but pure psychological denial. it just makes them slightly comic as they run to and fro, saying there are no higher powers, all the while driven by them constantly

So Schizotypy is (partially) flawed mentalism in social context whereas autism is lack of mentalism and treating world as full of 3D objects?PC1 scores were positively related to performance on the mental rotation task, suggesting trade-offs between social skills and visual-spatial ability—or what the diametric model would describe as trade-offs between mentalistic versus mechanistic cognition. Indeed, only the diametric model can explain this finding, thanks to its implicit assumption that more cognitive resources devoted to mentalism mean less available for mechanistic cognition, and vice versa.
My mental rotational ability is par to none. I tend to mentalize people very logically but also irrationally leaving feelings aside although I can see how they react which gets better with test runs and large database of qualities. I'm excellent at problem solving when I need to "mentalize" how something works however I suck at when I see objects in front of me.

I don't think its zero sum but they're usually not equal either, I think thats the idea to typology with respect to functions. like you can F>T but your T might still be "stronger" in an objective sense compared to another T type, for example a 5 year old. in other words, stack describes relative preference within the individual but not objective capacity compared vs others. the "dimensions" of a person's psyche is how it relates to itself, whereas an objective capacity for logical reasoning or any kind of reasoning is probably best described by IQ x time x training. In essence these factors inflate the original "shape" to an extent where even a small aspect of person Y's total personality may nevertheless be greater than another persons' even if that aspect predominates for that latter person. of course this is speculative because its hard to measure how deep some people's real abilities penetrate because there is no overall God's eye view. in the end this may be nothing but an error in perspective and all people are truly equal some are just more appreciated than others.. this is the sort of thing only God knows for sure and something that may be very enlightening should we reach heaven. it also seems to be the basis for the idea of "do unto the least of these" because it seems to respect a kind of unknowable and transcendent equality of all humans. in essence a lot of inequality is itself a product of an interaction effect we would all, in theory, like to do away with, but in practice tend to only make worse by trying
So what does being a "logical" type actually prove? Pretty much nothing, because all that says is that people change over time, which is true. But what a "type" is, is to say that people will ALWAYS stay the same throughout time (that's how we can "predict" people and relationships, apparently, because you can only predict things if they stay the same). But they don't though, because people change over time. What happens if you become "more logical" over time? Then you could say that the person "changed" type. But if a type changes, then the entire concept of type becomes meaningless, because a "type" is something that's supposed to stay the same the whole time (if not, then the prediction becomes impossible).
Either way, the entire concept is incoherent and fatally flawed.
calm down singu we all know your position. the appropriate action in light of integrity would be to fuck off from the forums forever at this point
in keeping with that

I haven't read everything you've written here but my idea of power begins with powerlessness which must remain, they are the same thing in my mind, what I mean is my idea of having power is not the traditional one of having power over external outcomes in life but only by being constantly in touch with the realization of powerlessness in the external can you simultaneously embrace your only real opportunity to excercise power, that is the power to choose thoughts, words and actions and nothing else.
you mean the power to control yourself not necessarily others.. I think its sort of an illusory distinction though since you can't not control yourself into doing something that doesn't effect others in some way, or by trying to control others (or shall we say having an "external locus of control") also factors into how one decides to comport themselves.. the main thing is power must always serve something higher or forever be subject to forces it never fully comprehends. people who are into power, over themselves or others, are so easily conditioned by their environment its ridiculous, to say the only opportunity is to control oneself becomes a self fulfilling prophecy because they never really aspired to more in the first place. they turned their own inaction into confirmation of the assumption about what sort of genuine opportunities are available to them, namely: self preservation. its not very insightful into the real state of affairs for others, because its terminally self centered. the entire premise relies on a lack of awareness of how everything effects everyone else, like when strat says gaben is surprised to hear he is considered selfish. its like they don't see how living an extravagant lifestyle is only one way to miss the mark, and one they only choose to focus on because it suits them, which is not a moral existence ("I don't do this bad thing I'm disinclined to do anyway"--does not make you good). in self defense they simply zero out all moral claims, without realizing that doesn't make those claims more or less true it only makes the person solipsistic, a kind of spiritual vacuum... the body carries on but it doesn't matter what it does or what it tells itself, its just sort of there, like some human version of the dark ages. they're like filler in space and time until the real humans show up. a symptom of a generation or culture that has exhausted itself and needs a breather. quite literally, all genuine ethical opportunities lie beyond their horizon, and they view this as being some kind of cosmic truth and not just their particular lot in life, because they've collapsed the two into some kind of black hole

To conduct the study, Timothy Wilson, a social psychologist at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville and colleagues recruited hundreds of undergraduate student volunteers and community members to take part in “thinking periods.” Individuals were placed in sparsely furnished rooms and asked to put away their belongings, such as cellphones and pens...
Even though all participants had previously stated that they would pay money to avoid being shocked with electricity, 67% of men and 25% of women chose to inflict it on themselves rather than just sit there quietly and think, the team reports online today in Science.
Testosterone Administration Reduces Lying in Men
-Lying is a pervasive phenomenon with important social and economic implications. However, despite substantial interest in the prevalence and determinants of lying, little is known about its biological foundations. Here we study a potential hormonal influence, focusing on the steroid hormone testosterone, which has been shown to play an important role in social behavior.

In contrast, relatively increased right-frontal activity may serve as an index of withdrawal motivation or related emotion (e.g., disgust, fear, and sadness).
Humans are the only animals who crave oblivion through suicide - https://aeon.co/ideas/humans-are-the...hrough-suicide
No person alive has ever experienced death, yet they think death would bring salvation. How?The idea that death means mental oblivion is a sophisticated one that can be reached only by deduction, not observation; we assume no non-human animal could grasp it.
I think many people assume death is just the end of experience forever. Experiencing nothing at all is generally preferable to experiencing only misery. So when people find tbeir lives are becoming too much to handle, they make a completely rational choice to kill themselves. It doesn’t have anything to do with “salvation” except for the religious.

Evidence of correlations between human partners based on systematic reviews and meta-analyses of traits
I've encountered this before. A visiting professor who was a graduate of my school but not a professor there was helping everyone who took a German class find where in Germany they should go to live for months to a year if they wanted to study abroad. I was the only one who was told to live in the northern half rather than southern. Everyone else who studied abroad came back in lederhosen and dirndls even though I wasn't very interested. That's when I really started feeling alienated. Americans.
One of the specific things he mentioned was everyone in southern Germany as well as Austria liked arriving at their classes 30 minutes late. I still think that's ridiculous.
