@Tyler0317 Thucydides is a central part of this article @Koba posted on Wednesday https://americanmind.org/essays/our-revolutions-logic/

reading now

it's really good

lol

I saved it. That too heavy of a read for 2 am.

Wonder if Koba just went to bed and left a key taped down to screw with us

What do you guys think about Neech?

@The Eternal Anglo Don't you mean too smart to lose at chess?

@Ald I'm a fan

Nietzche got the ball rolling on many questions that needed to be asked.

I heard some misguided fellows declaring neech as being some kinda pro-feminist

While a quote of his stated something about keeping a whip handy while working with women

At an IE conference in 2020: "Some say Koba is gone. Vanished. Like a lost dog never to be seen again. But I reckon he's out there somewhere, still typing to this day."

What he shouldn't be, is A one stop shop for philosophical wisdom.

Nietzche, that is

Sadly you have to look to greats in the world of philosophy because it's those few everyone else looks to

People really misrepresent Nietzsche as just being a nihlist

Almost all politics and philosophy (everything really) is simplified for mass consumption

People who really know neech is that he was sickly A LOT of the time which was what a lot of his negativity stemmed from

I try to not appreciate philosophers for their answers, but rather for the questions they ask.

IMO, way too many people attempt to describe themselves as having a "Nietzschean" worldview(Spencer).

I don't see that Nietzsche had particularly distilled worldview.

He was a very useful contrarian, who had some pointed criticisms for his society and Western Civ as a whole.

we can certainly see he was valid in being worried about the world post-god

Wow, I'm a Democrat now

@Balgias And his ideas that the post-God world was baked into Christianity from the beginning?

Christianity's biggest flaw is that it promotes atomization

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njhv9My2tls its ok @Balgias Waifus fill that void. We can be Christians and appreciate waifoos till the heat death of the oniiiiiiverse

G'mornin everyone besides Koba,
.....who is STILL typing. 😉

Leg day

Good morning @Tyler0317

Koba is *still* typing.

I would love to play chess with anyone who’s interested. My chess.com username is ATigersRide. Also, chess boxing is amazing, and it should be the official sport of I.E.

@Sacramento challenge accepted!

Koba still typin something up ay?

Watcha got for us dog

@FACINEMA

Nietzsche’s optimism and Will to Power are very inspiring ideas. He wasn’t just a contrarian

Why is Koba still typing? Did he pass out mid faceroll on his keyboard while playing PUBG?

Good day everyone! Today’s my first day back to work since my kid was born. I died a little inside leaving this morning 😭

Good morning to everyone except for **Koba...** who is still typing

Man that must be one marathon article there...
