I realized the other day that I have tendencies towards General Semantics. I didn’t even know what it *was*. But I found myself excessively agreeing to it when I tripped over it.
Watched some videos, did some studying.
Realized that I’ve pretty much been indoctrinated into General Semantics by my interest in the science fiction writings whose authors were DIRECTLY influenced by General Semantics and by those sci-fi writers/tv producers who were influenced by THEM. PLUS the psychoanalytical schools of thought that stemmed from there as well.
SOOOO…
what to do?
Keep unraveling the self ’til I figure out what’s left that’s “me”. But at least I have ‘tag’ for … see.. tag… label. that’s general semantics right there. Part of my way of thinking/talking/expressing. I’m within the system itself. Lifetime.
The deconstructionalism of self continues…. which is part of yet another movement of its own. Oh well – I’m having fun at it.
