It's ultimately an issue of meaning and despair, which *can* be solved in this way but it isn't the only way, nor is it a surefire way

2018-11-20 22:20:39 UTC  

I'm not seeing a secular movement solving the situation

2018-11-20 22:21:05 UTC  

Why does it have to be a movement?

2018-11-20 22:21:16 UTC  

Also tbh Peterson's talks have secular applicability

2018-11-20 22:21:32 UTC  

So we don't get a massive movement towards communism and death

2018-11-20 22:22:16 UTC  

What establishes the foundation for secular meaning to life?

2018-11-20 22:22:39 UTC  

Ultimately the individual does, to be blunt. But that's the case either way

2018-11-20 22:23:10 UTC  

So, self worship.

2018-11-20 22:23:19 UTC  

@Beemann Do you think secular people lean more towards socialism or individualism?

2018-11-20 22:23:45 UTC  

How is it self worship?
@grant I think it depends on the era, to be perfectly honest

2018-11-20 22:23:59 UTC  

Yay the world’s gonna be full of solipsists

2018-11-20 22:24:06 UTC  

Sounds awesome (not)

2018-11-20 22:24:06 UTC  

Politics has this weird little collectivist/individualist push/pull

2018-11-20 22:25:17 UTC  

On a weird sorta off topic note

2018-11-20 22:25:39 UTC  

Isn’t LaVeyan Satanism or whatever it’s called supposed to be focused on the individual

2018-11-20 22:25:51 UTC  

Why is still overwhelmingly overrun with socialist cunts

2018-11-20 22:26:13 UTC  

They’re _already_ pretty much worshipping themselves and the “base humanity represented in Satan”

2018-11-20 22:26:16 UTC  

@Beemann I do not. I think the numbers show secular people clearly lean towards socialism. Doesn't mean some don't lean towards individualism. If a larger number don't move towards individualism we get socialism/communism and death. Hence, we need a secular movement towards individualism.

2018-11-20 22:26:31 UTC  

What I think your average person wants is enough space to do their own thing without being isolated

2018-11-20 22:26:38 UTC  

So Nietzsche?

2018-11-20 22:26:54 UTC  

Doing their own things means other people pay for their crap apparently.

2018-11-20 22:27:21 UTC  

You can see that even amongst socjus tbh. They want people to let them be genderfluid otherkin, but they don't want to be otherkin on their own

2018-11-20 22:28:38 UTC  

Sometimes it means wanting to have other people pay for your stuff yes

2018-11-20 22:28:44 UTC  

Is that why transgender are demanding I suck their dick? they want to be left alone.

2018-11-20 22:28:46 UTC  

It’s like they want to be a part of something bigger than themselves but they can’t establish any real meaning because there’s no foundation for their it.

2018-11-20 22:29:09 UTC  

They want to be able to do their thing without the negative effects of a thing

2018-11-20 22:29:22 UTC  

They clearly do not want to be isolated

2018-11-20 22:29:37 UTC  

hmm so socializing their bad decisions. so much individualism

2018-11-20 22:29:59 UTC  

Well I think they haven't been presented with a convincing case that it is a bad decision

2018-11-20 22:30:20 UTC  

Oh because they also demand anyone questions it be shut down. more individualism

2018-11-20 22:30:47 UTC  

Individualism cannot argue against self harm effectively.

2018-11-20 22:31:05 UTC  

And what all powerful being do they demand do these things? Praise be government.

2018-11-20 22:31:26 UTC  

You say that like theocracies aren't a thing

2018-11-20 22:31:39 UTC  

We're not a theocracy

2018-11-20 22:31:45 UTC  

canada or usa

2018-11-20 22:31:54 UTC  

No, because the government decided to secularize

2018-11-20 22:32:05 UTC  

During the formation of both nations

2018-11-20 22:32:38 UTC  

Theocracies are a thing. Not all religions are the same though.

2018-11-20 22:33:45 UTC  

Praise be government. deliver me from these nazis. We need a singular one world government so everyone must worship and follow the rules I demand.
but Christians are just as bad right Beeman.

2018-11-20 22:34:00 UTC  

Buddhists too right?

2018-11-20 22:34:06 UTC  

Where did these goalposts go?
