Context "This sounds like a loose paraphrase of the sense of Daybreak aph. 329 (see also the first half of aph. 542, and the parallel passage in Genealogy of Morals). The necessity of illusions is also the major theme of 'Truth and Lie'. I agree with the earlier comment that, if it has any relation to a particular passage at all, it is a bad paraphrase! It's hard to explain exactly but if you even just skim the relevant passages in Morgenröthe or 'Truth and Lie' you'll see that when he's discussing the sturdiness of illusions he is often discussing the important functions they serve and when he is discussing the pursuit of truth he is often treating it as the product of illusions! So both halves of this quotation sound like something Nietzsche would say (except not in his style...) but not when combined." https://philosophy.stackexchange.com/a/56290 #1896_OnTruthAndLiesInAnExtraMoralSense #MetaphorVersusTruthIllusion

Context #NewspaperUSBrdshtNewYorkTimesDavidBlight "But in the same way that Abraham Lincoln has become 'everybody's grandfather,' in the words of the historian David Donald, the one American figure who could be adopted by every part of the political spectrum, Douglass is also appropriated broadly, especially by the American right. ... On the surface Douglass does appear to be self-made -- he was the escaped slave who willed his own freedom, stole the master's language and wrote masterpieces of antislavery literature. But without many people, especially women (his grandmother, two wives, a daughter and countless abolitionist women who supported his career) as well as male mentors, both white and black, he would not have survived and become Douglass. In private, he easily admitted his reliance on friends and associates, and he believed in a theory of history rooted in the Old Testament, in the Exodus story, in collective liberation by God and by events. In 'Self-Made Man,' a new book published by the Cato Institute, the lawyer Timothy Sandefur argues that Douglass's essential legacy lies in his advocacy of liberty, individualism and private property and free enterprise. The radical abolitionist who risked all to use words and politics to free an entire people from slavery was, to Mr. Sandefur, only 'a radical for individualism' and never concerned with 'the interests of the collective.' To believe that, one has to ignore most of Douglass's career, especially his life as an abolitionist, his ferocious attacks on the poison of racism and his brilliant analysis of how lynching emerged from the evils of white supremacy. Douglass believed that freedom was safe only within the state and under law. Douglass did preach self-reliance for his fellow blacks: He argued that the freed slaves should be given their rights, protected and then 'let alone.' But he never employed that 'let alone' dictum without also demanding 'fair play,' and security against terror and discrimination. Conservatives have cherry-picked his words to advance their narrow visions of libertarianism." https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/13/opinion/right-coopts-frederick-douglass.html #OrgClassifPPUSPOTUSAbrahamLincoln #IRLHistorianDavidDonald [Wikipedia] #TheoryIndividualismCompetitiveSelfMadeManArchetype #PowerControlChattelSlaveryAbolitionism #BeliefTheismChristianityBibleOTBookOfExodus #PoliticsCollectivism #AdvocacyUSCatoInstitute [Wikipedia] #AdvocacyUSGoldwaterInstituteTimothySandefur https://www.goldwaterinstitute.org/our-team/timothy-sandefur/ #OtheringDiscriminationRacism #PowerControlViolencePhysicalBrutalityLynching #SlurWhiteSupremacy #CatchcryFreedomLiberty #ReasoningFallacyOfIncompleteEvidenceCherryPicking #PoliticsLibertarianism

@KyraBessix [name pseudonymized] [ontology] : José Vaquero Sánchez: «El movimiento Woke» [URL redacted] #woke #antiwoke [URL redacted]
"During the Franco regime there was an index of prohibited books, and some teams of censors were in charge of pruning or preventing the publication of those that did not comply with the rules imposed by the dictatorship or the church. It was a clear attack on freedom of expression, logical in such regimes. What is no longer so logical is that this attack could emerge in Western democracies if the Woke movement continues to prevail.
It has happened first in some North American universities and then it has spread to other European ones. The followers of this movement have established themselves as the new censors of society and have drawn up a list of prohibited books that do not conform to their new morality. History repeats itself with other protagonists.
Always in the name of just causes, such as the fight against racial segregation, homophobia, machismo, gender violence or sexual abuse and assault, freedom of expression is curtailed. All these events happen in reality, but they cannot be narrated. Disgraceful and pitiful. In addition, works from previous centuries that were written with those existing at that time are judged with 21st century criteria.
For example, Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel To Kill a Mockingbird, which was made into a major motion picture, has been banned due to violence and use of the N-word. English, refers to black)
The problem is of such magnitude that Julia Navarro in her article 'My Forbidden Library' writes: 'The Woke movement has become the Great Censor. In places like civilized Canada, not only is the reading of certain books prohibited, but 'purifying bonfires' are organized in the most genuine Nazi style, to burn politically incorrect books.'
Let's hope this totalitarianism doesn't continue to spread, because if it did, we should examine our libraries to get rid of these books.
Freedom is too precious a treasure to be lost by controlling language in order to do so with thought. But there are different thoughts. Aspiring for everyone to have a single thought in the name of political correctness is nonsense that can lead to a new fundamentalism." https://en-clase.ideal.es/2022/02/06/jose-vaquero-sanchez-el-movimiento-woke/ #IRLDictatorFranciscoFranco
