Revisionist Buddhism: Nihon ryōi ki (Japan, 9th c.) Nov 16, 2021

Show notes

A kind of critical support or supportive criticism of the parapolitics left, particularly what we might call the vampire hunter faction, as we take a look at Buddhist folk tales from early–Heian-period Japan, a time and place where the Abrahamic worldview has no purchase but we still see religious ideology working within class struggle and relations of production in a variety of ways.

We take a tour of the Silk Road, where merchant capital moved and grew value between the ancient empires of China, India, and the newly formed Muslim world, with its roots in nomadism and trade and frontier relationships with nomads, including future “white people” like the Viking Rus.

Ancient Empires: Cain & Abel (Hebrew/Greek, 3rd c. BCE), Umisachi & Yamasachi (Japan, 712 CE) Aug 05, 2021

Show notes

In ancient myths from opposite sides of the globe, we find ancestral memories of the violent conspiracy that gave birth to class society, and we also trace the growth of cosmologies of good and evil through class struggle and the growth of the great ancient empires: do we live in a cosmic empire? A cosmic insurgency? A cosmic counter-insurgency?

Show notes

We get an intimate view of the transition to the grain state, straight out of Sumer (modern-day Iraq) in the 22nd century BCE, and compare it to one of the last defenders of the grain state, Aizawa Seishisai in 19th-c. CE Japan, Aristotle in 4th-c. BCE Greece, and current events.
