I'm trying to guess what you mean as you aren't effectively communicating it.

There is no such exact science. The mind is too much of an enigma and science is too much corrupted by politics.

Freedom is illusory.

What do you mean by "meaning"?

Yes, mainstream "science" is politics with a bit of scientific mumbo jumbo sprinkled on top to pass it off as actual "science".

There is such an exact science. The mind is very much an enigma unless one has absorbed this science. At that point it becomes as clear as mathematics. Not even extremely advanced mathematics. You don't know about it, fine. But it still exists. I know about it. I've been absorbing it over the last year or two. How many people knew about gravity when Newton came up with the idea? Just one. Doesn't mean it isn't science.

Freedom is not illusory, that's your black-pill mentality talking. It's the ability to do ANYTHING WHATSOEVER with your life. Of course, gaining this ability cannot be achieved without a great transformation of the state of mind from the current norm, from which one could argue that freedom is illusory. Claiming this only testifies how freedom and your state of mind are utterly incompatible, no more, no less.

Meaning is objective. Meaning is meaning.

"Scientism" is a blind faith in the (corrupted) institutions of "science". Academia, corporations, government, etc.

I first wrote this article and the Open Science section over a year ago, and just improved it a smidge: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source#Open_science

People have always known about gravity. Newton didn't invent it. He just developed formulae. Allegedly. IMO he was crazy and The Venetians intentionally lavished undue praise on him, as on Einstein, for their infiltrating Sabbatean purposes.

Your mind science and abilities and transformation remain unexplained.

Nothing is objective. Everything in existence is subjective and relative, including meaning.

But I agree about the religion of scientism.
