I AGREE THERE ARE CONS

2017-04-08 15:00:34 UTC

INDEED

2017-04-08 15:00:36 UTC

why can't people just be normal

2017-04-08 15:00:38 UTC

THERE ARE MANY CONS

2017-04-08 15:00:44 UTC

forget all of the mess they have accrued

2017-04-08 15:00:45 UTC

HOWEVER, RENTING IS AWFUL

2017-04-08 15:00:46 UTC

in their heads

2017-04-08 15:00:46 UTC

Owning anything can be punishing in certain countries

2017-04-08 15:00:52 UTC

But here, it really isn't

2017-04-08 15:00:54 UTC

prozak

2017-04-08 15:01:00 UTC

Even if you own huge amounts of land

2017-04-08 15:01:33 UTC

land ownership = tax, HOA/ordinance, needing to do your own repairs, and worst of all being locked into one spot if the area ever becomes a bad place to live

2017-04-08 15:01:38 UTC

i.e. in case of disaster, war, whatever

2017-04-08 15:01:53 UTC

it's a huge financial liability in that it will not generate income for you as quickly as other investments, and is not liquid

2017-04-08 15:02:08 UTC

i.e. if your house appreciates by 5000% you will still need to find a buyer otherwise that return is fictional

2017-04-08 15:02:28 UTC

there are a lot of pros to owning land but I only do it for the cheapest land

2017-04-08 15:02:42 UTC

it's only worth doing if it cost 1 month's salary or less and very low taxes

2017-04-08 15:02:52 UTC

like a random few acres out in Montana or something

2017-04-08 15:02:54 UTC

@fallot many cannot do that. Their mess has defined them.

2017-04-08 15:03:15 UTC

I was just referring to alt right people online

2017-04-08 15:03:20 UTC

basically the more "choice" the land becomes, the worse it is to actually do - it costs more and there's more rules

2017-04-08 15:03:27 UTC

I feel like these people are trapped in their ideas/movements/whatever

2017-04-08 15:03:35 UTC

I don't expect objectivity from people

2017-04-08 15:03:39 UTC

but I do expect composure

2017-04-08 15:03:41 UTC

and fallot - my plan after seceding from society is to just do whatever the hell I want

2017-04-08 15:03:52 UTC

probably become intensely involved in art & music

2017-04-08 15:04:11 UTC

say whatever the hell I want without fear of consequence, hang out with whoever remains

2017-04-08 15:04:29 UTC

probably remain semi nomadic

2017-04-08 15:04:37 UTC

I don't agree with your motivations but the plan itself isn't bad

2017-04-08 15:04:43 UTC

so maybe it'll work out to something good

2017-04-08 15:05:23 UTC

what even are my motivations?

2017-04-08 15:05:29 UTC

all I want is what I consider basic human freedom

2017-04-08 15:05:32 UTC

your stated motivations I mean

2017-04-08 15:05:38 UTC

it just requires being a hardcore sociopath to get there

2017-04-08 15:06:14 UTC

that's the funniest part, I do not even enjoy being how I am. It is useful but I only turned out this way because my life directly forced me to, otherwise I never would've had any guile at all

2017-04-08 15:06:31 UTC

that is part of why I hate the world so much, it forced me to become mini satan just to survive

2017-04-08 15:06:49 UTC

I think we already had a productive conversation

2017-04-08 15:06:53 UTC

by the way I'm very happy about that, thank you

2017-04-08 15:06:59 UTC

I felt like I spoke to a real person

2017-04-08 15:07:12 UTC

good

2017-04-08 15:07:23 UTC

I think I'm fine with leaving it at that unless you want to continue

2017-04-08 15:07:33 UTC

well, there's not much to say on the topic

2017-04-08 15:07:54 UTC

actually, one more point

2017-04-08 15:07:58 UTC

I don't know if you considered it

2017-04-08 15:08:21 UTC

I think my narcissism is part innate, but hugely exacerbated by having to chronically lie

2017-04-08 15:08:24 UTC

it's funny, what you said about your life

2017-04-08 15:08:30 UTC

I'm in some ways the exact opposite too

2017-04-08 15:08:31 UTC

if I am not narcissistic I will lose sense of myself entirely

2017-04-08 15:08:54 UTC

I only turned out fine because I had a great life, otherwise I am predisposed potentially to being a pretty bad person

2017-04-08 15:08:55 UTC

lie lie lie lie REAFFIRM SELF lie lie lie lie REAFFIRM SELF

2017-04-08 15:09:01 UTC

no see

2017-04-08 15:09:05 UTC

that is the fear, the wall

2017-04-08 15:09:06 UTC

the barrier

2017-04-08 15:09:10 UTC

there's something real beyond that

2017-04-08 15:09:25 UTC

you keep responding to that fear, thinking you're doing something about it

2017-04-08 15:09:29 UTC

you're not, you're just delaying things

2017-04-08 15:09:35 UTC

of course, and if I became that person I would be impoverished instantly

2017-04-08 15:09:37 UTC

because the ultimate issue remains unresolved

2017-04-08 15:09:58 UTC

maybe you could become that way slowly

2017-04-08 15:10:03 UTC

if I were real I would quit medical school yesterday and just start drawing comics and play guitar

2017-04-08 15:10:15 UTC

I would just make art all day every day

2017-04-08 15:10:26 UTC

and be poor

2017-04-08 15:10:42 UTC

would you like to do that

2017-04-08 15:10:44 UTC

I know a girl who is a professional artist, she is disney grade

2017-04-08 15:10:45 UTC

if you could eke out a living

2017-04-08 15:10:50 UTC

she lost weight due to starvation

2017-04-08 15:10:51 UTC

hypothetically

2017-04-08 15:11:09 UTC

she is better than I ever will be

2017-04-08 15:12:06 UTC

but she lives with her parents and cannot afford enough food

2017-04-08 15:12:41 UTC

is she happy

2017-04-08 15:12:46 UTC

no

2017-04-08 15:12:52 UTC

she started gradually becoming a tumblr SJW

2017-04-08 15:13:22 UTC

oh well

2017-04-08 15:13:23 UTC

last I saw she got an undercut

2017-04-08 15:13:54 UTC

she posted stuff about how the mormon church should basically go SJW and I called it retarded and she blocked me on social media

2017-04-08 15:14:19 UTC

it was like one of the only posts I even made this year

2017-04-08 15:14:22 UTC

a lot of people with your affliction use this SJW stuff by the way

2017-04-08 15:14:25 UTC

have you noticed?

2017-04-08 15:14:41 UTC

yes

2017-04-08 15:15:12 UTC

I used to think well of these people ultimately, because I thought they were motivated by love, even if they were massively wrong to the point of evil

2017-04-08 15:15:26 UTC

and that hasn't changed for most of them

2017-04-08 15:16:14 UTC

but plenty of people use it in a different way, anyway that's a pretty big topic and can get a bit self congratulatory in an alt-right context so nvm

2017-04-08 15:16:23 UTC

I'm interested

2017-04-08 15:16:34 UTC

there's not much to it

2017-04-08 15:16:41 UTC

they just use it as a justification for being a good person

2017-04-08 15:16:47 UTC

while beating up other people with those values and standards

2017-04-08 15:16:55 UTC

but in truth, they don't really care about anything but their own selves

2017-04-08 15:17:02 UTC

which are either gaping holes or gaping wounds

2017-04-08 15:17:12 UTC

these are the types who binge drink and use drugs and MDMA every weekend

2017-04-08 15:17:21 UTC

yeah, terminally unhappy people

2017-04-08 15:17:26 UTC

and do lots of yoga mindfulness bullshit but still struggle with depression

2017-04-08 15:17:38 UTC

all of that stuff they do looks to me like window dressing

2017-04-08 15:17:40 UTC

camoflague

2017-04-08 15:17:44 UTC

yes

2017-04-08 15:17:52 UTC

well there is a certain depression that comes with it

2017-04-08 15:18:20 UTC

I grew up around well centered, good, spiritual people

2017-04-08 15:18:33 UTC

so even now I have a bit of naivete about this

2017-04-08 15:18:34 UTC

I mean.... if you are never allowed to just be you, and everything you have to do to financially and socially survive requires systematically ripping out your natural behavior and feelings and replacing it with "useful" alternatives, it messes you up

2017-04-08 15:18:45 UTC

I don't know, I have some sympathy

2017-04-08 15:18:50 UTC

but at some level, their plight seems self chosen
