Can't say I blame him. Recruiters are the lowest form IMO.

2017-02-03 20:32:33 UTC  

I see.

from a colleague, a response to me saying i want to protect my family from hoards of fanatic leftists: "If you are busy being a virtuous person and understanding that human beings are innocent people regardless of how their mind and spirit is shaped and those people want to destroy you then so be it. It is not for us to save ourselves....but it is my feeling that if you are living a righteous life you will not find yourself in a position where harm will come to you. This is my opinion." - playing along with this belief system, i ask how do you know what virtue/righteousness is? the response: "It is ingrained in you....you just know whats right in your soul. its part of your makeup... some choose to adhere to it and some choose to ignore it.." - how convenient eh? of course he doesn't consider it convenient. it's apparently very difficult to do whatever makes you feel good. he doesn't consider himself a christian cuz he's not into labels man.

I REMEMBER FRONT 242

2017-02-03 20:33:52 UTC  

ONE OF MY USERS (ON BBS) WAS WAY INTO THAT BAND

2017-02-03 20:34:53 UTC  

@Gil O'Teen that is just some plain old bullshit. I don't think even they believe that and if they do, it makes them feel good to believe it. Cut them out of your life as best as possible.

German industrial something or other. Forgot how they classed it.

2017-02-03 20:35:27 UTC  

Eisbrecher anybody?

2017-02-03 20:37:39 UTC  

@Gil O'Teen Meh. That's great if you're the last man on earth, but we don't live in a bubble. The threat is an external, so self-righteousness does/means/is nothing but mental masturbation.

2017-02-03 20:37:54 UTC  

Chimps gunna chimp in other words

2017-02-03 20:38:23 UTC  

@-A he's a big conspiracy nut too. it's fun talking about the JQ with him but yeah it does get tiresome talking with people who have such all encompassing fatalistic worldviews.

2017-02-03 20:39:16 UTC  

@ Gil O'Teen Is he for or against the JQ? Does it trigger his Hitler or his Stalin?

2017-02-03 20:41:46 UTC  

@-A he thinks hitler did nothing wrong. big fan of saddam hussein too.

2017-02-03 20:42:01 UTC  

@MRB TRUE. WE ALL DEPEND ON SOCIETY. OR AT LEAST: IT HELPS US BE ABLE TO DO MORE THAN OTHERWISE.

2017-02-03 20:42:01 UTC  

so it's not all bad

2017-02-03 20:42:22 UTC  

THE JQ IS A DISTRACTION

2017-02-03 20:42:25 UTC  

THE WAR ON LEFTISM IS NOT

2017-02-03 20:42:29 UTC  

NOR IS THE WAR ON INDIVIDUALISM

2017-02-03 20:42:32 UTC  

WHICH IS HUBRIS

2017-02-03 20:42:36 UTC  

THE ROOT OF OUR BROKENNESS

2017-02-03 20:42:56 UTC  

he's the kind of conspiracy guy who gets so deep that he becomes neutralized. he thinks everything is controlled and nothing can truly be known. solipsism.

2017-02-03 20:44:34 UTC  

@MRB Agreed. Living with saintly thoughts resting on simply being virtuous without regard to those that mean to do you harm is overly solipsistic.

2017-02-03 20:45:58 UTC  

Reminds me of the cuck think line "take the moral high ground"

2017-02-03 20:46:13 UTC  

BRB. Getting a late lunch.

2017-02-03 20:52:47 UTC  

if i had that mindset i think i would at least join a church and get my family in there to help protect them. i'm sure he could find something that roughly matches up with that kind of thinking. he's totally checked out though. he thinks each individual needs to figure things out and there's nothing he can do to prevent anything with his kids. i work with the guy though so it's hard to directly criticize these things. i just talk with him on his level.

2017-02-03 20:54:31 UTC  

Is he an introvert?

2017-02-03 20:55:19 UTC  

yeah

2017-02-03 20:57:25 UTC  

Yeah. Seems like it. It seems like one of those "perfect world" ethical points of view. Those only work on paper, and given all the assumptions work. Idealistic while not at all pragmatic.

2017-02-03 21:00:49 UTC  

he thinks the world is completely controlled. nothing but your own personal experience can be trusted. if you try and get success you're playing into their hands. if you try and resist you'll get crushed. so all you can do is be passive and be true to conscience or whatever.

2017-02-03 21:01:37 UTC  

Defeatist solipsism?

2017-02-03 21:01:48 UTC  

yep

2017-02-03 21:02:08 UTC  

the end of the conspiracy road

2017-02-03 21:03:09 UTC  

Who does he think "they" are?

2017-02-03 21:04:41 UTC  

jews/globalists/people who control money and have access to both lost ancient and far future technology

2017-02-03 21:05:32 UTC  

that's why he likes hitler and saddam, because they got destroyed, meaning they were fighting for truth

2017-02-03 21:05:50 UTC  

trump is totally controlled

2017-02-03 21:06:10 UTC  

Ah now I know what you mean. I know those types.

2017-02-03 21:06:38 UTC  

normally i wouldn't bother talking to people like this but he's a coworker of sorts so i make the best of it

2017-02-03 21:07:24 UTC  

i wrote a post on trs forums a while back about how to sort the conspiracy people wheat from the chaff.

2017-02-03 21:07:49 UTC  

Link?

2017-02-03 21:07:56 UTC  

Love stuff like that
