Contra #Aristotle, Contra #Hegel: The Death of Telos

Teleology isn't false, it's misplaced.
Purpose exists locally (minds, organisms), not cosmically.

Reality isn't aiming; it's iterating.

Telos is a rearview hallucination: pattern canonized into destiny after the fact.

🥚?🐔 What if the chicken came not before the egg, but as a byproduct of how we choose to understand causality, knowledge, and the limits of both?

"Hegel ... sees things in terms of a 'principle of Idealism' ... It is a teleological or quasi-teleological principle, according to which things must be seen as if existing on account of, or as if tending towards, certain consummating experiences, experiences where there will cease to be a barrier between the self and other persons, or between the thinking mind and the world confronting it."
