@MuricaTodd@SamaHoole In its raw state it is so high above other foods, that even after cooking it is still considered very high in oxalates. You need to supplement it with cheese or other calcium rich food to bind the excess oxalates. Which is what was traditionally done.
@futrellpeg@SamaHoole Spinach is often paired with cheese, historically. Especially Mediterranean food (Spanikoptia). Cheese is high in calcium and binds with excess oxalate and would be eliminated via the stool rather than via the kidneys/urine. It was also only eaten twice a year.

All that negativity for each visit builds and builds into a severe illness. Just stay away from doctors if you can, listen to your body and trust it's instincts and learn as much as you can

The Apocalypse: Discarding Enlightenment's Veil /🧵
The most dangerous form of deception is inception. The type you are not even aware of and take for granted so deeply that it forms the very lens in which you see the entire world. An idea planted so deeply in everything you read and think about that it becomes like a mind parasite that consumes the energy of every thought and formation of intuition. Worse yet, is the denial of any possible mediation as a priori -- that is, the complete disembodiment of being, at multiple levels.
I suppose it's important that I start with a concrete example, something that is taken for granted so deeply by the majority of thinkers that it may appear insane to even question such an unassailable statement:
"I think, therefore I am." (Cogito, ergo sum) - Descartes
This statement is easy to digest for most people, but as I hope to make you see by the end of this thread, flips reality on its head. Reading this statement as a living person it contains true statements on both sides.
You're surely "thinking" while reading this statement.
You surely "are" while your vision (or hearing/feeling if blind) traces over each word.
True, therefore true?...
So it almost appears, as one reads it, a tautology. That isn't quite what Rene Descartes meant, he was going for something more abstract -- that you think at all means you are, independent of anything else. In fact, in rejection of everything possible, the ultimate atomised individuality.
At a higher level, what this statement said is the following: Epistemology conditionally proves ontology. That is: the metaphysical is now conditional to its rational formulation. This is a sharp departure from Platonic forms, which exist in a transcendental realm independent of so-called rational thought. In a sense, Descartes in his "Meditations" captured everything in reality (including God, lol) and trapped them within his oddly shaped head.
You see, the "cogito" statement itself is far bolder and less personal to the reader than it appears to the reader. The "I" is very much Descartes or anyone who chooses to deploy his theory. This formed what is termed Cartesian dualism: a "non-physical" indivisible mind ("res cogitans") and a completely mechanical physical body ("res extensa"). The former's existence, in the observer's mind, proves the existence of the latter, but this is later extended to everything.
It is this theory we will initially dissect, destroy and later, invert entirely, arriving at a result that will surely surprise most people. One thing I want to point out is that if you are like me, you've probably never really even questioned this dual of the mind and body -- it has likely been drilled into you since birth. Perhaps the more religious of you refer to this mind as a soul? Did you know that there was an alternative that Descartes successfully killed for most people? Not only that, this alternative philosophy was so old and established that it is undateable. Older than Platonic forms. Yet, today, most have never heard of it despite it once reigning supreme. We'll return to this later in the thread, and with all we have learnt about reality with our recent findings and instruments, I believe it will form a true revelation. An apocalypse, in the proper revealing sense of the world rather than the popular sense of physical destruction.
Now returning to the question of the so-called enlightenment, which I believe is the reverse of said apocalypse, Descartes, formed the philosophical pillar of the enlightenment. Almost every single modern philosopher you have heard of since him, has taken his dualism for granted, even as they defeated every other part of its formulation. This includes figures like:
Spinoza (even adopting the framework from a monist perspective), Leibniz, Locke, Hume, Kant, Hegel, Schopenhauer, Marx. Any philosophy, ethics or science built on the other's formulations will be irreparably tainted by the flaws that we will be attacking in this thread. All of today's dead society is built upon this idea, even your online social interactions!
Interestingly, Nietzsche rejected the framework altogether and even predicted that someone would write this very thread you are reading, and yet still came to the same awful wrong conclusion his own way. Actually, the only* person to get things right was David Bohm, because he removed the veil himself in his book "Wholeness and the Implicate Order" (1980) -- but didn't synthesise the conclusion because he was a very gentle, cautious and serious man who didn't get to live to see the vindication of his theories. Unlike Descartes, Bohm was not only a philosopher but also a physicist. A man who wielded both ontology and epistemology.
For reasons related to this, we are going to be forced to examine not only Descartes in this thread, but also the science pillar of the enlightenment. This other pillar was formed by Englishman Francis Bacon. Bacon worked in almost the opposite direction as Descartes but towards the same goal.
For Bacon, reality is as follows: "It has been tested empirically, so I can build on it". Seems reasonable, right? In fact, you might say, it's even harder to argue against this than Descartes! We will quickly see how flawed empirical evaluation is, but there is one sleight of the hand you could miss in adopting both of these. Bacon restricts the scientist from thinking about philosophy, and Descartes restricts the philosopher from using their senses thus conducting science. A double severance at either end. Only through their institutions can knowledge be gained. This was the beginning of compartmentalisation.
Meanwhile, both of them rejected everything that came before them -- Bacon going as far as using Abrahamist/Yahwehist symbolism, of smashing four different kinds of "idols". Descartes invoking a demiurge-like demon which steals his senses and ability to measure.
When taken both together, their "enlightenment" leaves us in a collective amnesia and creates a dual: a scientist and a philosopher, one restricted to measurements and , and another trapped in his thoughts forever. Neither of whom have any connections to the "idols" of the past, smashed to bits by these two curious men.
Descartes promised a utopia, as did Bacon in "New Atlantis", should their formula be followed. Bacon proposed "torturing" nature until it spilled the beans about the truth through empiricism. Descartes on the other hand, declared primacy of human consciousness, denying it to animals and instead deeming them mere machines or automata. This essentially severed our connection to nature, beyond just the past. Today, as humans are deemed "animals" too, we find ourselves under the same kind of harmful assertion.
I will not stop at these two though, I will take you all the way to today in 2025. All the way to quantum mechanics, LLMs, discoveries about space, time, nature and beyond. The "enlightenment" was damaging, in fact, it gave birth to disastrous revolutions, dehumanisation, savage wars, absolute nihilism, destruction of faith for many and desolation in the form of the loneliness epidemic. You will quickly come to understand that these two men, or more accurately, those behind these two men, intended this exact outcome.
But that's not what this thread is about. This thread is all about us achieving what they never could: the unveiling of reality. This cannot be done by myself alone! In fact, that's the entire point of this thread, as you will see, the unveiling is something that has to be done by the entire world, but it is precisely this moment that this unveiling is not only possible but inevitable. The unveiling is communication about this, about destroying each boundary and veil they have put up for us. We finally have the tools and knowledge to do it.
If I do not write this thread, someone else shortly will! The hard work has already been done, arguably, thousands of years ago, by ancient philosophers, by Jesus Christ, by early Christians, by Bohm and many experimentalists, technologists today. For the latter though, this is not the singularity that the transhumanists wanted. 😂 Instead, this will be, a restorative one that will most definitely awaken everyone from their collective amnesia once a critical threshold is crossed! The anti-thesis is our current dying society, there will be no synthesis in the Hegelian fashion, we will absolutely smash what they built and transcend it.
Are you ready oomfies? If so sit back, relax, and enjoy this thread about philosophy, science and teleology -- purpose.
* I will note that Heidegger, Whitehead and Merleau-Ponty rejected the Cartesian framework and worked beyond it. They came very very close to connecting epistemology (the how), ontology (the what) and teleology (the why) together, but missed some key results due to their lifetime window. If they were alive today, they would have been writing this thread instead of your Baka! May they rest in peace. ❤️

A japanese oil company documents their history through their historical orders and invoices. Clearly show that seed oils were not prevalent in cooking until about 150 years ago, which coincides with the cottonseed oil timeframe.
