Its a good thing you don't strawman anything... People might understand what you are saying at some point
@Shadows lol, you make me laugh <3
See the problem is I would have to jihad all who have trash waifus
which is everyone I have met thus far
@Beemann so far in the US, we've done well by building a civic religion and history based on the revolution
That's fine by me, i'm all for return fire on your jihad.
That's why there is such influence for our national symbols, like the flag etc. We had to build a nation from nothing, compared to the Germans who had a shared history
so would you be of the position then that the best solution is to focus primarily on reversing the past X number of decades of KGB subversion? That general direction?
Yes, very much so
The KGB has spent decades turning people against their own government
what did I just walk into?
The ultimate subversion
I think that will become a top 3 focus regardless, I just get the feeling that a few other systems need a bit more than maintenance
I thought it was just going to be Sal going nuts about divorce
nah I'm bringing up societal reconstruction again
@Beemann my respect for you has skyrocketed. No one seems to see the need to turn back Soviet subversion
it's basically why SJWs exist
I don’t think it can be turned back.
I think you can remove its influence in large part by reconstructing the foundation of a basic, flexible social system
I can't think of three, but I see the destruction of Soviet subversion and the anti religious ideals as most important
@J Edgar Was waiting for you to join our talk about bodypillows. What say you?
what we have now is about 6 different social structures, none of which are 100% there, all vying for control over bits they havent quite figured out yet. And some of them are trash on top of that
I didn't know there was any talk about bodypillows. @Salacious Swanky Cat gets to be mine
The ability to create a Universal Value is the main ingredient in creating a positive and prosperous society. Things like Nationalism, ethnic, race, and other forms of symbolism are so vital. No matter how you rally a population, the lack of strict social norms is a requirement, but yes it comes with a steep negative trade-off. Thusly, things like liberalism, and tolerance was much more persuasive and political popular. It's a near impossible balance. However, we're so far gone from this. It's barely even conceivable. :C
Shadows has a collection of body pillows? Who would have guessed
Tolerance isn't really popular though. The people preaching tolerance are some of the biggest opponents of it. What we have instead is an culturally imperialist notion of subversion and capitulation
We can recover, and do it peacefully
Yes yes, technology, decadence, and the luxury of modern convenience is also a fatal result of said society.
It starts with setting your own house in order
I'll try to take the Abbey White pill. But there's a lot suggesting otherwise.

You can't fix society without fixing your own home first
*Begins optimistically cleaning apartment*
Excellent
Tolerance is being able to deal with the existence of opposing and conflicting ideas/practices etc. I would argue this is vital to growth so long as it is taken in moderation
The key should never be to have no standards to accomodate the standards of others, but to rigorously examine and test the standards you have
No. I fundamentally disagree with that Beemann.
No. No. No!

I might agree with you, but explain
