@Muten do you read theory?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:19:13 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Political theory

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:19:16 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Economic theory

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:19:19 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Philosophy

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:20:11 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

You shouldn’t be allowed to have an opinion on politics if you don’t read philosophy and theory

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:20:44 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

It’s literally the foundation of all modern society

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:20:56 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

How could you understand anything without it

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:21:53 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

What is the difference between an incontinent man and a bad man?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:23:23 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

You should read theory.

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:23:32 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Just my general advice to all people here

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:25:25 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

All theory should be read really

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:25:37 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

But you should have a good base in the Greeks and romans

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:26:54 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

The amout of times an idea was transferred does not mean it has any less value

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:28:09 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

There’s a lot more nuance to ideas than meets the eye and that’s why writing is more suitable for expressing them

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:28:36 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

They should

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:28:47 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Elitism is saying that only a small group of people should read

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:32:37 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

If you actually want to learn more about politics and not just be stuck in this loop of “destroy libtards -> be obsessed” then you should read

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:32:42 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

It doesn’t have to be much

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:32:51 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Just 5 pages a day is more than most

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:33:41 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Then you are getting actual smart ideas filtered though people’s own biases

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:34:30 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

@Muten do you believe in utilitarianism?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:35:33 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Okay let’s assume you do. Then one source may explain it well and another badly based on how they interpret it. You don’t actually engage with the whole ideas in themselves. You just get fragments

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:35:57 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Utilitarianism is, very roughly, the idea that the ends of a moral system justify the means

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:36:46 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

So is killing 10 people okay to save your wife?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:37:28 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

It’s a way to think of moral philosophy

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:37:37 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

It IS a moral philosophy

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:37:55 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

“radicalization is the only way to get anything done tho. no one pays attention to mundane nuanced debate these days”

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:38:32 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Marxism and Egoism both sprung out of the nuances of Hegel’s philosophy

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:38:39 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

They are VERY opposed

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:39:42 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

The dominos are set by philosophy though

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:39:53 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

It is ultimately ideas which move the world

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:40:31 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Well of course, but that’s a trite point @HunDread

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:40:46 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

hahahahaha

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:41:02 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Do you realy think we will have a 2nd civil war?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:41:13 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:41:43 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

I’m sorry but that will never happen

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:41:53 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Not in a million years

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:42:33 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

No, it won’t happen

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:43:44 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

This is a delusion of most Republicans because they can only see the forming of new ideals through violence. Almost no people on the left want violence. It won’t happen, you people just have no way of seeing it

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:44:23 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

I’m not talking to you specifically

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:45:57 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

I understand that you aren’t thinking of a civil war in a clean-cut-blue-vs-red kind of way

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:46:01 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

I’m saying that it won’t happen

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:46:35 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

The people of America, especially leftists have no idea what it’s like to live without

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:46:49 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

When faced with the descision they won’t

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:47:49 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

The people of America in 1776 are vastly different than those today

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:48:35 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Do you know what it’s like to not eat for 3 days? @UnScottable

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:48:47 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Even 4 maybe?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:49:54 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

@UnScottable what’s the longest amount of time you’ve marched for?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:50:11 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

When’s the last time you ever killed a man?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:50:23 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

My point is that it won’t happen

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:50:27 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

People are too cushioned

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:51:00 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Do you really think that people are going to give up 3 meals a day and TV at evening for a literal WAR

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:51:13 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

You have no idea what WAR is like

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:52:00 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Are you prepared to watch people writhe in agony in front of you and beg for you to kill them over gun rights?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:52:21 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Are you ready to look a man in the eyes as you shoot him dead?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:52:27 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Answer one then

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:52:32 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

You haven’t even answered one

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:52:35 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Wanna know why?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:52:42 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

All of them are “no”

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:52:59 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

People aren’t ready for war

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:53:17 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Are you sure about that?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:53:57 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

You haven’t ever seen someone die in real like and it’s painfully obvious

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:54:04 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Especially in a horrible way

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:54:34 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Have you?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:54:38 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

I’m right aren’t I?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:56:35 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

I agree with you that the civil war 2 or whatever it’s called seems to be in motion. However, people aren’t ready for the horrors of WAR. You do realize that men from WW2 had PTSD from even seeing it right? How bad do you think it will be when you have to kill former friends, neighbors, even family?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:56:52 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

The 2nd civil war will never happen

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:57:32 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

@Laucivol I was just trying to demonstrate how unthought his point was

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:57:57 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

You do realize that men in desert storm got PTSD from watching kids be shredded by apaches right?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-07-19 04:59:01 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

@UnScottable holy shit bro. That’s has NOTHING to do with what the shadow is

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-08-11 22:44:01 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Euro chat

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-08-11 23:04:59 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Wearing clothes is vain

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-08-11 23:07:05 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

In all seriousness though, if we were to consider fashion vanity, then why would hairstyles, basic hygiene, and any other attempt at bettering the physics self not be vain

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-08-11 23:07:58 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Why not let them have makeup

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-08-11 23:08:34 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

What’s wrong with having a scent?

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-08-11 23:20:17 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Who has read Hegel here

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-08-11 23:21:50 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

Hegel isn’t too bad with supplementary reading

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-08-11 23:21:56 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

You just have to swallow the pride

ratboygeinus Ω
2019-08-11 23:23:15 UTC [Athens #the-temple-of-veethena-nike_general]  

I’m sure his 18th century prose is very grating to a modern German speaker though
