Those sinns

i was like "ew is that his balls?"
*click*
ew.

And the whole North Korea stuff

I fear dankula made it impossible for me to enter heaven

holy shit

North and South Korean leaders shook hands, then held hands like school girls crossed the border into North Korea, and shook hands again.

there was never any heaven and Dankula balls were only proof of this

I fear I might now be too damaged by my trauma to ever be allowed entrence paradise

I can't believe what I saw on that tape.

I f†††ing cried ill be honest

not from the balls, korea

One of the darkest things I ever heard was from a girl I went to school with, the teacher had asked the kids to talk to any adults in their family about them being veterans in wars.

One girl said she talked to her grandfather, "honey I did things in the war I'll never get into heaven for. That's why I don't go to church on sunday with you all."

wow

I think we were eleven when he dropped that one.

thats mad af

No one gets in heaven anyway

"honey I did things in the war, I'll never get into heaven for."

oof

wise man

If we talk about the self authoring Jordan Peterson stuff, his ideas about defining what heaven would be, I think I've been to heaven before.

I wonder what he did

Did he put a bullet in a kids skull?

🤔

just picture anything you'd do at war and imagine yourself actually doing it with your own hands

I always thought it would be great to have all the video games I never had access to as a kid, when I was a teenager playing Starcraft somebody showed me about emulation and that was a real game changer for me

Did he torture people?

and then let's talk about access to information, movies, music, the internet changed everything

I imagine he did shit with explosives.

Meh, I'd be able to rationalise war @M4Gunner

I believe he was a UDT man in WW2

For how long, until you get home?

The precursor to the navy seals kind of guy.

Shoot the enemy because enemy = enemy

If youre lucky to live youll have your whole life to hate the monster you became

I wouldn't hate myself for it

I know another older guy who was a navy seal guy in vietnam, he's a guy I work withs grandfather

If you arrent willing to kill, then you'll die in war

He seems a little less ashamed of what he's done, he's not ready to talk about it all the time, but his experiences in the war definitely stayed with him.

Guy I work with said he loves watching action movies with his grandfather, because grandpa will breakdown what is bullshit and what isn't

If you're forced to go into battle, then you have to play the role you are given and live with it

If you don't follow the role, you will die

a man can kill and kill again but he is going to come home and have some thoughts

The example he gave was Road House, when he rips that guys throat out he said "there's no way someone could do that." He said he looked at his grandfather who had a smile and just nodded "oh yeah."

I'd rather not have to kill anybody if I could avoid it.

If a somebitch comes at me trying to kill me, I'll be damned if I just let him get away with it.

Ptsd is the big war trauma @M4Gunner

most war heroes would rather solve problems with words

And I already got ptsd

And if a somebitch comes at my family, I'll also be damned if I can sleep without getting him.

I can't get double ptsd

so do i, do you not think it can be made worse?

Meh

It's almost like they understand that wars are more effectively fought with words

that diplomacy should be the first attempt to resolve an issue

It is completely gone at this point, I only got it on paper

But some people can't be reasoned with.

Some people are just assholes.

I often think about America's stalled entry into world war two.

Could we have gotten involved sooner and stopped Hitler

Would we have been effective at keeping Hitler from taking France

It's not like we didn't know what he was up to in the early thirties.

Best way to deal with harsh conditions:
Taoism(the philosophy, not the religious mumbo jumbo)

I havent met almost any veteran that wasnt deeply troubled by what they had to do.

Nothing is right and nothing is wrong

I take most eastern "religions" as philsophy

Things just are

Neither good nor bad, it's all about perception

To me having a folder full of regular nintendo games I can play at anytime, that means something to me

im not into the tao

to some other guys, that's boring and lame

Perceptions are illutions

Everything is an illusion.

And everything is a negotiation.

I'd beg to differ

Everything just is

I hate philosophy

Why tho?

It's when people stop discussing what is real and begin to masturbate their intellects 😄

What is real then?

<:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>

People seem to have a point and then they float off into neverland

Please tell me about this realness

you dont have the categorization skills to handle reality. You want things to just 'be', and everything to fit into a group of things which 'are'

I'm still in running battles over this anti-Trump March in London

things are complicated, i dont like philosphers trying to oversimplify everything

Or perhaps it is who are trying to over complicate things?

For what is a catagorisation but a illution?

I can take a hit of acid and get spacey on occasion, but for day to day stuff we need to stop having so many dreamers on the mic

What is a chair?

``For what is a catagorisation but a illution?``

How much of a chair can you cut away before it is objectivly not a chair?

im not going to explain to you the difference between a chair and an abstract concept

Or are all catagorisations subjective?

I am using the chair to explain the concept

no, not all categorizations are meant to be subjective and why would you think so? Categorization works best when used *rigidly*

Are catagorisations a part of the universe?

Or are they figments of the human mind?
