To Extrapolate or not?

When we encounter a lifestyle completely against our worldview, a threat seems to be looming,

This prion, false vacuum attacks the entire being we accept as “we”

It becomes a challenge, a test, a battle

Is it, however, necessary? Is it Manichean?

Do we have to integrate this particular into a general? Do we need to understand it to accept it? Or do we need to accept it to understand? Can we ignore it respectfully? Can our worldview coexist with this inconsistency?

Abduction as an instinct that can be quarreled. Peirce as a mirror, for reflection.

A reflection that stops us from passing but allows us to see behind us.

A reflection that allows for redemption, an again. A what if become a what was.

What became.

A what is doubted. A what could be resolved.

To extrapolate or not.

All our words inherited by the dead.

Merry Christmas, you rat bastard.
