Conflict and Daily Operation Anonymous 03/07/15 (Sat) 05:31:41 No.21

I do not shy away from conflict; in fact, I welcome it. I embrace change and difference. If things go down, preparation is always at the ready.

However, I attempt to avoid unnecessary combat. I tend to not consume myself with the affairs of others. There does not exist much care for the exact specifics of neighbors and other surrounding elements. Other than the smooth functionality of our placement, I do not give one damn for the constructions and daily behavioral dramas outlined within the community.

What is the point of smashing bones when there is so much more going on than the simple window of my own perspective? The warrior which swings his axe at everything shall find a dull mace, and the rogue who continually shoots her arrows soon shall have an empty quiver.

Wars can be fought without landing a single blow. There are many levels of influence, and physical altercation is only one small facsimile of human socialization. To that end, I do think that it is somewhat important to observe power relations of communitarian associations at available and non-inconveniencing opportunities. After all, you cannot long survive if you are not aware of what lies beneath your feet.

I think fighting can be beneficial. Aggression and the ability to take power is a Satanic position. The weak shall perish, while the strong survive.

I agree that fighting can be beneficial, if not crucial to life itself. The battle which truly matters is an invisible one. Possibility and opportunity is its playground, and there are subliminal rules to its organization, which can be thereby adjusted using appearance and mere movement.

Yes, you should avoid unnecessary physical confrontation.

But you shouldn't be afraid to defend yourself if you need to. If you never took some martial art classes, do it. It doesn't even matter what it is. It'll help with your confidence and how you handle yourself in those situations.

Sure but we shouldn't deign to engage in senseless violence even if it's cathartic nor should we shy away from all confrontation. There's a lot of talk about predatory spiritualism but part of being a predator is being discerning when picking out your prey.

TL;DR Pick your battles wisely.

I don't care a lot about fitting in or fighting people because they're mad dogging. Fuck that stupid shit. If they're so fucked in the head that they have to fight over the way you look, then screw them. I do what I gotta do and people will always hate.

You're right though. Conflict is not just physical.

I echo your thoughts.

What sort of predator would allow themselves to be so easily caught up in a particular impulse? Unless, of courshe, it was all part of the plan. But such contingencies rely upon exterior variables that may or may not consistently be there. Further, such planning builds dependencies.

I share your stance on martial arts. I think it is extremely important to study defensive and offensive means of survivability. This world is a harsh one and we must thus become swift and sturdy.

Absolutely.

"Fitting in": What does that even mean? I mean, really, people say, "let us fit in," but all which is truly going on is us replicating perceived vibes of social accord. Fitting in is an illusion, being "normal" is just a fabrication we just tell each other to make ourselves feel good. Cultural normalcy is simply musical chairs for the interests of power relations maintaining restraint of individual creativity.

>replicating social accord

Do you think mirroring acceptable activity is conformity?
