I may have first became interested in alternative epistemologies,
|
alternative epistemologies
|
||||||
while reading about Terrence Mckenna in my early years of college.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Later this blossomed into a more general interest in alternative epistemologies,
|
|
||||||
as I had more fist-hand experiences of things which were deemed "impossible" or "misguided"
|
|
||||||
by the mainstream consensus knowledge-making systems, but which seemed undeniable in my own experience.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
From Godels Incompleteness Theorems, to the philosophy of science,
|
|
||||||
it seems even within the academic world of rationalism,
|
|
||||||
the way things work cannot be as singularly and precisely pinned down,
|
|
||||||
as some might have hoped.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This wiki could have alternatively been called "Conspiracy Theory Research",
|
|
||||||
and I find conspiracy theories to be fertile ground
|
|
||||||
(and not really the bogey man the liberal media portrays it as,
|
|
||||||
which is ironically its own form of conspiracy theory)
|
|
||||||
but to me "conspiracy" is in a way just the emotionally-dark genre
|
|
||||||
of the much larger field of all knowlede-making systems
|
|
||||||
which don't start with the assumption that what most people believe is true.

I would like to make the clause that I don't agree 100% with everything that is listed within this wiki,
|
|
||||||
which would also be impossible, because there are loads of contradictory views,
|
|
||||||
but I also feel no need to separate myself from the more "out there" opinions either
|
|
||||||
— in my eyes the world is much stranger and more beautiful than the new york times would have you believe.

Flat-earth theories are really interesting to me.
|
|
||||||
Whatever shape earth you walk on, it feels like a deep invitation to look through your own eyes again.

*Alternative Medicine*
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This one is more meaningful to me, because I have more personal experience of how "alternative" medicine has cured
|
|
||||||
ailments in myself and my friends, and how many people I know are suffering from chronic illness and injury,
|
|
||||||
some of who I imagine might also be like me, whose conditions might not be inherent but actually caused by the illness-causing conditions of modern society.
|
|
||||||
Here is a tweet from 2017 back when I was still questioning if it was even possible to find the healing I was looking for,
|
|
||||||
and before I had first-hand experience. Here is a link to a detailed log I've recorded since 2017 keeping track of all the
|
|
||||||
times I experienced symptoms of illness.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Many people would consider me a covid-truther or conspiracy theorist,
|
|
||||||
— I've even had one friend say to me, "I know you are skeptical of the medical industry, but you're not like *them*".
|
|
||||||
To me this feels like an unimportant distinction — sometimes I think the more outlandish conspiracy theories
|
|
||||||
are just folk-lore communicating through another dialect.
|
|
||||||

Here is what I personally feel to be the best piece of writing I've written about western medicine, vaccination, misinformation and non-holistic public health: <br/><br/>

I've included these links on an additional page, because I don't find them particularly interesting,
|
|
||||||
and without having looked into them, they may even be hateful,
|
|
||||||
but I am keeping them here as a way of saving them, as there was something about it interesting to me.

scuttlebutt has been drawn my attention for a long time now
|
scuttlebutt
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I first joined after seeing a presentation by @zelf at radical networks in berlin in 2018,
|
peachcloud
|
||||||
here is [the introductory post I made then](https://viewer.scuttlebot.io/%25p%2FUkTc1Q2ZpH3mVw%2BPxbfOiBD8gGjj4O9MCsVQ0Nf%2F8%3D.sha256)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
strange that so much has happened since then,
|
|
||||||
but in many ways my interests are also mostly the same
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
since then I've met dozens of people from scuttlebutt,
|
|
||||||
including [@lando](ssb://@cnLKkzXHWFfPa2c4N74pMKCpw6Gmp1vnydEF4qlZsTE=.ed25519) who I started [kiezpilz](http://kiezpilz.de) with,
|
|
||||||
as well as [@glyph](http://mycelial.technology) who I've worked on peachcloud with and learned a lot of mycology from
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
at times it feels like a global network of activists to me,
|
|
||||||
much of which consists of long periods of durational devotional work typing at home,
|
|
||||||
as well as experiments in alternative ways of living,
|
|
||||||
with occasional moments of meeting up in person
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
it also sometimes feels like a religious community to me, in a nice way
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I don't feel like trying to totally describe what it is,
|
|
||||||
or be completely utopian or pessimistic about it
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I imagine this is another feeling I share in common with members of other religious communities
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
my participation in the community has consisted of:
|
|
||||||
- hosting various butts on my couch when they were travelling through berlin
|
|
||||||
- attending [solpunk](posts/solpunk) in 2021
|
|
||||||
- working on peachcloud with @glyph for two years
|
|
||||||
- posting about various things on scuttlebutt and talking with other butts
