Baruch Spinoza / 斯宾诺莎

Baruch Spinoza / 斯宾诺莎 appears in 92.柏拉图上班记：用哲学搞笑职场 as the figure who tells 柏拉图 that the absent boss-God is not what really runs 思考理性有限公司. The operating power is “NATURE,” rendered in the episode as the capital-side trust fund.

That joke creates Corporate Theology And Capital Control: theological language is displaced into corporate governance, where metaphysical authority and financial control overlap without being identical.

123.人性实验：当心你自己！ adds a psychology reference through the Gilbert-Spinoza Hypothesis / 吉尔伯特-斯宾诺莎假设. In this source, Spinoza anchors the idea that people initially accept propositions and only later reject them through effortful cognition, which Daniel Gilbert / 丹尼尔·吉尔伯特 turns into a modern social-psychology frame.
