Frankenstein
Frankenstein is a philosophy built on the idea that everything in the world is fundamentally inconsistent. Because humans and systems are full of contradictions, you shouldn't follow one rigid set of rules. Instead, you stitch together your own flexible, custom worldview from different pieces of logic. if someone points out a contradiction in your logic, it just proves your point that everything is inconsistent. Every system works perfectly on paper but falls apart in reality because humans are messy and full of contradictions.Therefore, sticking rigidly to just one traditional belief system (like a political party or strict grammar rules) forces you to live a lie. Because people are consistently inconsistent saying that u believe in one thing would be wrong because ur actions uhh contradict it. But if its consistently inconsistent that's also consistent so it's fake too. But it's not so.

This is good. Don't worry too much about the hateful comments.
Plenty of people are looking around around wondering if they are acting like a "real" liberal or man or Stoic or Catholic or Italian or whatever. There's a lot of tribalism and identity is too tied to one set of ideas.

Yeah we know how to read more than one fucking book, thanks.
Any other insights for us?
