50 Quotes by Heather Marsh about philosophy
"When many people become bonded into one self, as an endogroup, an artificial person is created as an ideal. This endogroup ideal, or endo-ideal becomes the group. Its identity is adopted by every member of the group and the individuals also become the endogroup. The group identity subsumes the self for all except the endo-ideal, creating a special subset of reality which here we will call an endoreality"
"An endogroup acts as an individual self. It therefore needs only one mind to lead it, or the ideology of one mind. Those that become the endo-ideal are forever entitled to the service of others and ownership of the group. Those that become the reflectors are forever assigned to the service of others and the duty to reflect. Those that are cast as the negative image are condemned to carry all guilt and undergo all penance."
"There are four elements of a healthy self: a personal membrane, euphoria, euphoric conduits and a drive to exosocial expansion. The obstacles to creating this self are endosocial membranes."
"Guilt is an acknowledgment of debt for unbalanced transactions."
"The acceptance of guilt and debt is the mark of a negative image and the wait for atonement is the mark of a reflector."

"It is not revolution we need, another turn of the same wheel along the same path, it is resistance."
"Autogenocide: Genocide instigated remotely, usually through media incited sectarianism or trade of drugs or weapons to the targeted population, but performed by the population on itself."
"Whoever maintains authority over the work of others maintains the hierarchical system and prevents workers from having autonomy, mastery and control over their own work."
"If news requires no action, it is probably not the news we require in order to govern ourselves. If activism requires no analysis, it is probably not informed or effective."
