>inb4 political shit-flinging contest

I would gladly live under a theocracy so long as it is in line with my beliefs.

I want to become a monk at some point in my life.

The western world as whole has about probably no more than 50 years before it completely caves in on itself or experiences an extremely radical change of some type.

Political agendas have a huge grasp over scientific fields. Stuff that doesn't agree to a certain political agenda may never get published even if it is true. Such is human nature. For that reason, I find it hard to trust many things.

I'm a negative utilitarian, minimizing suffering in the world is the most important thing to me. So the best thing would be to euthanize the human race (and all other complex life forms)

What do you mean merely a concept or merely a construct? It is of course a construct as in, it has no empirical or ontic dimension (you can't "touch" or "prove" society), but is a concept that affects reality, that manifests itself in reality. Not merely a concept as if you could just claim it's pointless, vain or "fake".

It is a burgeois concept and, most of the time, a hypocritical concept (for example, "we are better because we are a civilized society and we don't do those ugly things our barbaric neighbors do, by Jove!". Beyond all hypocrisy, society means perfecting the gorgeous process by which canis canem edit:

>Circa 4000 years ago, I would literally eat my neighbor because I was a cannibal

>In Rome times, instead of eating him, I will enslave him

>In modern times, instead of calling him "slave", I give him a job and control him via media to buy the next Justin Bieber garbage.

See? As society "evolves", as we become "socialized", the way I "eat" my neighbor is more complete, more complex, more cperfect, more fatal and more profitable.

Here is my crazy view straight outta Nietzsche:

Time and time again the world has proven to be canis canem edit, the strong controls the weak: and it is beautiful and good that the world is so, that the strong can sit above the weak and even struggle amongst themselves, and that the suffering this implies for the weak means nothing if he can't make a stand for him or herself: this is the Law of Nature, that right is only given by sthrengt. So when the weak revolts against its oppressors and makes them suffer, this too is beautiful because strenght is beautiful.

We have been taught to think otherwise thanks to christianity: the cult of suffering (regardless of religious/mistical views), and we can see the epytome of this logic of "weak is good" in filthy SJWs (see "muh oppression")

Just saying that society is a load of fucking shit. Persecuting those who don't belong and trying to hold the higher ground in their hivemind based on nothing but what is wrong or right or upstanding.

Can "society" really exist in a world as fucked up as this? We'll find out soon… European revolution when

Testosterone will have served its purpose by the time we have the technology to artificially inseminate women. At this point in time the best sooution will be to slowly tip the gender balance in the favour of women (men dying off while females still being horn/males aborted) until the end result is the only men being allowed to live are those who are castrated.

And I agree with you on that one, what I try to add is that "prosecuting" and "trying to hold the higher ground" is not a good nor a bad thing: is what every living thing does. We do agree on that point: "wrong, right, upstanding", these words are bullshit, they change all the time. Nothing is in itself wrong, right, righteous.

We decide what is.

Also this world is not fucked up: it's mission is to fuck things up

Life is fun, and i enjoy weaving chaos where ever I go to break the depressing monotony.

It's almost an art. You can be subtle, loud, arrogant, or any other descriptive adjective as long as the canvas you paint ends in an upset status quo. My favorite probably has to be the subtle, chronic chaos. For example, if you're going to be around someone for ages, just switch small things around in their office or room or house without them noticing you're doing it. They assume it's just a memory problem of theirs and may laugh it off the first few times. But when it keeps happening for months or years, they start to wonder if their memory is junk. The key is to make sure you don't get caught, make sure there are no motivations for switching things as you are, and to be patient and subtle. They're looking for something to blame the switches on so they don't have to admit that they're going crazy. Make sure they work through the denial phase and eventually convince themselves that they're nuts. It's super fun.

You can spice it up too. Add the occasional double speak, verbal slip, or ask questions that get them thinking.

Also, never tell anyone what you're doing, even if they're distant from your victim.

You can also have multiple victims too. You know, target a group instead of a person. You find black vs white situations everywhere. Republican vs democrat, white vs black, male vs female, pepsi vs coke, communism vs capitalism, etc. Play both sides, egg them on, disseminate false information, fuh dat bich, anything.

There are no rules. It's all for good fun. It's one of the few ways you can genuinely express yourself and things don't go wrong.

I think that we are all more chimp than we realize.

I think that we are just animals pretending to be civilized.

I think that people still try to dominate others and vie for leadership positions through very subtle ape-like techniques

I kind of like you from this distance. I mean, if I had you close I'd rather slap your shit -especially about the arrogant/loud profiles, but from here, the fact that you've thought it so thoroughly and that you've managed to weave such a subtle suffering and inflict it unto others, man, my congratulations

Patriarchy theory, eh?

Here's a fun thought experiment. Look at the shitty jobs nobody wants to do. Construction, maintenance, trash collector, mechanic. Women disproportionately skew towards "comfortable" jobs and choose risk averse approaches.

This isn't a bad thing, but it is a fact of life.

Men are violent, competitive, destructive, and callous. But we also do the jobs women won't do.

The "patriarchy" is society. Unless women change through social condition or genetic shift to do perform more masculine roles, an all female society is basically impossible. An all male society is possible, but would rapidly become a horrible place to live due to violence and war.

And for what its worth, men may be more violent, but genders are about equal in terms of selfishness. Often selfish women simply use men as pawns to exact their violent urges.


 No.12196

>>12195

Anyways, my crazy theory? I think women are coddled and treated like spoiled children by society. If a women is made uncomfortable, people bend over backwards to accommodate them. A man who is uncomfortable is told to man up.

As a result, while women mature much faster in terms of social intelligence, many women stay in a coddled state through adulthood. This cuts deeply, as many women who are worthy of respect are treated like children and ignored(as shown by the many trans women who lose respect after transitioning), but while women are often denied respect, this is far outweighed by the gains in accommodation and empathy.

There's a reason men disproportionately kill themselves far more than women. Once a man is down in his luck, nobody gives a shit. He's laughed at and scorned til he stops caring and either blows his head off or shoots up a school or something.

Both genders face sexism in different ways, but I find myself annoyed at women who break down into tears at the slightest adversity in their lives.


 No.12197

>>12196

Actually that's not true. Its more like I get pissed off when I see someone use tears to manipulate. Crying because you were proven wrong or got caught being unethical is not a valid defense, and will only make me dislike them more. Otherwise, someone crying, man or woman, is fine. I don't mind that sort of thing and would gladly help my friends. But when someone spins the victim card for something that is their fault, its infuriating. Sorry if I come across as sexist but I've been burned by victim card carrying feminists a lot in the past.


 No.12200

>>11741

i never knew there was a term for this but this has been my philosophy for a while now

i think that nothing has any intrinsic value and humans can't make any justified claims about morality

if, however, we were to attempt to judge morality i would say that the only measuring tool we have is human suffering and that minimising human suffering and maximising pleasure should be our only goal as a species. actually, minimising our own suffering with complete disregard for the experiences of others should be our own personal goal - i never really liked the idea of humans being somehow united simply through being part of the same species. i guess this because i have felt out of place and different to most people at most times in my life.

though having said that i don't live my life as a hedonist. i'm not sure if this is out of fear or habit or something else

I like the idea in principle but the problem is who issues the licenses? Who gets to determine what kind of test you have to pass in order to get one?

It's the same thing with reproduction. I absolutely don't think that it is anyone's "right" to bring a living being into this world against its will to suffer. But the problem with regulating that is whatever organization issues the birthing licenses wields way too much power and is inevitably going to be corrupted.
