Are our most fundamental understandings deeply flawed?

The Chinese logical philosopher Gongsun Long (ca. 325–250 BC) proposed the paradox "One and one cannot become two, since neither becomes two."


If one is added to one then the group one and one would contain two ones
each one of the ones their-selves do not achieve the state of being two
------------------------------
One and one cannot become two


Whether or not this argument is provable, overly simply, or a serious argument to consider the fundamental ways in which we quantify reality or begin to perceive the closest conceptions to fact and truth based on simple math, it proves to be to be an interesting assertion


what do you think?

Protests praise the ways we stay Oppressed

... the capitalist class has at its disposal a state apparatus of organized violence— the cops, courts and prisons—to repress struggle against its domination. The liberal doctrine of “nonviolence” obscures the fact that the capitalists will stop at nothing to protect their profits.


[The ruling class uses] organized violence to repress struggle against its domination


------------------------------
Conformity to nonviolent ideology inhibits the understanding that the ruling class uses any means necessary (violence) to protect its interests.
