That's not something I entirely understand. I don't mean to sound like I'm hollering at this single point from this person's post, but it's a sentiment I've seen expressed before and this was a convenient example (and what I say next is in the spirit of and amplifies the further point they make!)<br><br>There's an emerging theme in my last few posts today concerning means vs. ends. Science as a production process that spits out knowledge products. Writing as the necessary chore sitting between a person and "having another blog post" or "citation count go up".<br><br>Overfocus on the ends can lead one to think of the means as chores. Science is slow and boring, let's use AI to spit out the Good Science Stuff faster. Writing is a chore, let's use the AI to spit out Documents. Heck let's chain them together and have the machine do Good Science Stuff and then spit out Documents about it that we feed back into the machine and hey we can send the Documents to Funding Agencies to get Funding for our Good Science Stuff and spit out even more Documents so that...and...to...so...[infinite random string]. Wait what were we doing again?<br><br>Personally I think it's poisonous to focus mostly on ends. The absurdity is a clue. If I believed in souls I'd say it's bad for them.

<p>NEWLY PUBLISHED BOOK TO READ</p><p>My latest book - THE WILD - takes the view that "anarchy", often extrapolated in and through the historical, socially-derived politics of anarchism, should instead be characterized on a naturalistic and queer basis as "the wild" (in much the same way as Kropotkin observed nature and came up with the principle of "mutual aid" in fact). </p><p>Through thirteen chapters this idea is then teased out, explained and extrapolated as something both ethical and political that is contrary to patriarchal, capitalist, industrial and technological human civilization as it has developed. </p><p>As such, this book is both a call to the wild (and to the truth and reality of the wild) and to the assertion that in feralness there is an authenticity of the mutual co-existence of all things to be found. </p><p>The book can be downloaded FOR FREE from the link below in multiple formats or read online. It can also be read to you via text to speech on that page.</p><p><a href="https://archive.org/details/the-wild-ethics-and-anti-politics" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="archive.org/details/the-wild-ethics-and-anti-politics"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">archive.org/details/the-wild-e</span><span class="invisible">thics-and-anti-politics</span></a></p><p><a href="/tags/politics/" rel="tag">#politics</a> <a href="/tags/anarchism/" rel="tag">#anarchism</a> <a href="/tags/anarchy/" rel="tag">#anarchy</a> <a href="/tags/wild/" rel="tag">#wild</a> <a href="/tags/wildlife/" rel="tag">#wildlife</a> <a href="/tags/feral/" rel="tag">#feral</a> <a href="/tags/nature/" rel="tag">#nature</a> <a href="/tags/books/" rel="tag">#books</a> <a href="/tags/writing/" rel="tag">#writing</a> <a href="/tags/queer/" rel="tag">#queer</a> <a href="/tags/nihilism/" rel="tag">#nihilism</a> <a href="/tags/indigenous/" rel="tag">#indigenous</a> <a href="/tags/civilization/" rel="tag">#civilization</a></p>
