Third World – Est’s Blog

When I see something in the middle of the night and I can’t fall asleep tossing and turning, I record it.

Many people know about Mao’s “Third World” theory, which is also one of the few top political concepts in Europe and the United States fully contributed by the Chinese. But few people know that Karl Popper, the top philosopher of the 20th century, has another set of “three worlds” theory. The three worlds are:

  1. real material world
  2. human thought
  3. person’s character

Fuck it, deep. As a person who has not been confused for many years, I can still learn new postures at this stage of life.

Human thought, also known as reason, is a divine world formed by reasoning and cause and effect; human personality is a perceptual world driven by emotion, temper and animal nature. Many people confuse the two as the same thing, but it’s fundamentally wrong. I understand that human personality is mostly determined by innate genetics. Human rationality is the unique skill of human beings as a homo sapien, and it is a nurture integrated mechanism that maximizes mirror neurons.

Speaking of this, I think again. I used to think that the Confucian Wang Yangming’s “unity of knowledge and action” is very powerful, until I saw “consciousness, awareness of others, awareness of action”:

  1. Get to know yourself first
  2. Secondly, we must save others by ourselves (pun intended), and consider the feelings of the other party and the whole society. After all, people are social animals.
  3. Finally, the results of thinking must be applied to actions, otherwise it will be empty talk

Confucianism, as a sect that started out as a communicative sect, did not single out “Hejue” to emphasize it. From this perspective, it was at a disadvantage.

In fact, what I want to say is that Pop may have missed the fourth world. This world is based on the virtual machine on the idea. This virtual machine can simulate and deduce the behavior, personality and thinking of others. This is also the world of Chinese people. The best at calculating others.
