GG @Forte58, you just advanced to level 1!

2019-01-20 11:27:36 UTC  

When?

2019-01-20 11:28:09 UTC  

!tempmute @⛥ Verx ⛥ 1h image spamming

2019-01-20 11:28:09 UTC  

Communist Verx#8281 (347798706717982722) is muted for **1 hour** because of '**image spamming**', boss.

@Revolutionaryarmchair am sympathetic to them at least, I don't like the labels regardless of political orientation so much, I'd rather talk about things without that initial dogma. Know what I mean?

2019-01-20 11:48:10 UTC  

I get yah perfectaly

2019-01-20 11:48:15 UTC  

Policy over ideology

2019-01-20 11:48:52 UTC  

That's much better because it can allow for more rational policy decisions

2019-01-20 11:52:00 UTC  

But does still require you to adopt moral frameworks and paradigms to then make policy choices

2019-01-20 11:52:21 UTC  

As not everything is as cut and dry as it may seem

2019-01-20 11:52:41 UTC  

Good point

2019-01-20 11:54:04 UTC  

That's why I often feel that I possess two people in one body, one which accepts a particular moral framework and then the other that is "fuck it all, i'm a fucking cosmic nihilist"

2019-01-20 11:54:38 UTC  

So its cognitive dissonance that affects me everyday.

2019-01-20 11:55:23 UTC  

your political tags can prove this as much

2019-01-20 11:55:45 UTC  

unless you were memeing

2019-01-20 11:55:48 UTC  

No

2019-01-20 11:55:58 UTC  

I would meme for a role

2019-01-20 11:56:32 UTC  

I prefer long, drawn out satire that infiltrates and impales the target.

2019-01-20 11:58:25 UTC  

Sorry if I went to far

2019-01-20 12:04:33 UTC  

Just thinking about moral frameworks. I'm not saying I don't have any at all. What's interesting about your dichotomy of holding nihilism and your political morals, or what's interesting to note, is that you skipped over the man made morals and in to nihilism without arriving at "nature" or natural law, do you think that's different than nihilism?

2019-01-20 12:05:52 UTC  

Just to clear up the question, your asking me what I think the difference between natural law theory and nihilism is and why nihilism is more appealing?

2019-01-20 12:06:30 UTC  

Why is nihilism more appealing than natural law

2019-01-20 12:06:47 UTC  

Just ask why to every single moral value

2019-01-20 12:07:40 UTC  

And also read about contractarianism, Thomas Hobbes, neitzche and finally read the book "homo deus"

2019-01-20 12:07:53 UTC  

Sorry, be an athiest

2019-01-20 12:08:49 UTC  

major help as it makes me seek more naturalistic/materialist explanation

2019-01-20 12:09:33 UTC  

Then you would come to the conclusion that morality is based on situations and ones circumstances and is therefore subject.

2019-01-20 12:10:28 UTC  

right

2019-01-20 12:10:46 UTC  

Once that that case is made, subjectivity leads to nihilism (I mean the belief that morality is not objective)

2019-01-20 12:12:16 UTC  

By the way, I don't fully subscribe to Nietzsche, I think he added in his bias of great men and social dawarinism to mean that ideologies such as communism are restrictive and therefore bad.

2019-01-20 12:13:19 UTC  

He often advocated for man to achieve the status of "superman" and hated Christianity as it encouraged poor people feel good about themselves.

2019-01-20 12:14:21 UTC  

*weak people to be ignorant and content with their suffering. I don't see it as a class thing

2019-01-20 12:14:21 UTC  

GG @Ano, you just advanced to level 4!

2019-01-20 12:15:23 UTC  

Not really class

2019-01-20 12:15:33 UTC  

Just general ability

2019-01-20 12:16:14 UTC  

I feel that pure nihilism should always treat value theory related topics with as much neutrality as possible.

2019-01-20 12:18:29 UTC  

@Ano o, what do you feel about nihilism?

2019-01-20 12:18:30 UTC  

GG @Revolutionaryarmchair, you just advanced to level 6!

2019-01-20 12:19:39 UTC  

What do you guys think about monarchy?

2019-01-20 12:19:50 UTC  

I mean the parlamentarist one

2019-01-20 12:19:56 UTC  

O despise it.
