The proposition frames atheistic rationalism not as tabula rasa neutrality but as a phylogenetic offshoot of Christian metaphysics: a secularized soteriology wherein salvific telos migrates from divine grace to human instrumental reason, preserving eschatological linearity (progress via scientism) while excising the transcendent anchor. This inversion engenders epistemic hubris—the rationalist ego posits itself as Laplacean demon, capable of exhaustive Bayesian world-modeling sans embedded cultural heuristics, tacit knowledge reservoirs, or distributed cognition (cf. Polanyi’s personal knowledge or Oakeshott’s practical rationality). Redditor ontology thus recapitulates the very fideistic dogmatism it abjures, mistaking its inherited post-Protestant individualism for primordial default while pathologizing tradition as mere “bias.” The meta-narrative of “enlightened default” functions as cultic apologia, immunizing against self-reflexive critique of its materialist priors.




Remilia and peers (Angelicism, Chloe21e8, BRG, etc.) was the only new American art from 2020-2025. Name other art you can’t. The art world lost its mandate when it decided to buckle to NGO censorship & when the critics sold out to the agent-galleries which sold out to the fairs.


BREAKING: Trump FDA retreats from plan to ban artificial colors in food, per The Guardian.


tbh criticism of milady and Remilia would hit way harder if literally ANYONE else made ANY half-way decent net art in the last 20 years
