The majority has spoken...and a cold shoulder is offered as a judgment of scorn.


The herd always reaches the same conclusions and acts in the same manner, governed, as it is, by the same values:

-Popularity is more valuable than reality

-To be seen and accepted and respected by all, loved by all, is an indication of a man's quality whereas to be despised and ignored is always shameful and insulting.

-Quantities are superior to Qualities.

-Herd methods are devastatingly effective to one and all.

Or people understand pain all too well, and try to avoid it at all costs. What is wrong with shunning things that make the time waiting to die unbearable?

You are dripping with self-hatred, practically begging for somebody to put you out of your misery.

Good thing you can still be made use of by a higher power. Even the brain-dead can still serve a purpose unbeknownst to them.

Do the same.

Shun me, sweets, place me on ignore, teach me a painful lesson...then tell yourself that what I've said and you've had the misfortune to read, is not valid behind your screen.

Turds actually think I am as vain as they are.
I face reality...they run from it.

See them asking:
"What is philosophy good for?"

What is wrong with inebriating yourself with lies?
You then vote, you imbecile. Because you tell yourself you deserve to vote and that your stupidity and cowardice should be taken account of.
You then come to internet forums on philosophy thinking you have something profound to say and that whatever stupidity comes out of your mouth that it deserves respect because....because...you are like everyone else...equal, the same.

You can't avoid pain, sweets...you can only postpone it.
That you can avoid it by burying your head up your anus is the biggest lie you've swallowed.
A comforting one...but not true.

Idiot, if you pretend that you will live forever, does mortality go away?
If you pretend the wolves are not coming, hungry and relentless, do they disappear?

If illusion is your drug then what the fuck are you people doing here pretending you are interested in truth. Presumably a truth which is kind and benevolent and easily corrected or placed on ignore.
I laugh at you cowards.
The wolf is in the barn...where shall all the sheeple hide?

This philosophy forum unbearable? Surely you jest. I'll change lives with you, if this is the extent of "unbearable" you experience. You are fortunate. Life sucks at times, but I continue to embrace it with a fervor of discovering each day something I didnt know yesterday.

No, imbecile, you are trying to personalize this again....philosophy is unbearable to you twits when it does not provide you with nice, easy, quick, fixes to whatever shit scares you to death...including death.

It's not true that love is magical or transcendental...no, not all are equal...yes there are races just as there are types, and species and breeds...yes, all generalize and simplify and project, but no two generalizations projections simplifications are equal, sweets...all of science is founded on generalizations, simplifications, projections, you simpleton...yes females and men are not the same intellectually nor psychologically no more than they are the same physically...beauty does matter, hate to break it to ya, dear... size does matter, including brain size...nobody deserves shit and the good do not get justice in the end....violence, greed, are natural and useful...and hatred is just as creative as love is, and just as destructive as love is...all are selfish,m sweets, because all act according to Will and Will is a focus of self...even a supposed "selfless" act entails a benefit and is selfish...nature is more decisive than nurture, because nature is the sum of all nurturing, you imbecile...pretending to be equal and polite and united does not make it so; parity is reinforced by enforcing etiquette and by training the few to respect the weak and the dumb and the idiotic...

Don't hate me because I'm symmetrical, sweets, just put me on ignore and spare me the nuisance of having to respond to your stupidity.

Yes, you too vote, explaining why politics, marketing, husbandry works and why stupidity is so necessary and desirable to the system and to those who control it.

Personalize? You do it every time. Nothing you have answered is not known to me. You hammer your and every other philosopher's view onto others. You idolise Schopenhauer and sit at his feet like a sheep, baaaaa, you are content you are in the presence of wisdom, baaaaaa. and you have the audacity to call others sheep! Size does not matter, only to those who are lacking in self esteem. A mental picture.....Satyr head bowed Schopenhauer looking down at him with a gentle expression, almost religious. Go Satyr spread your forced opinions Make them listen. Be heard, Sheep, do as I command. Truth? The truth is life and living is the best leveller.

Put you on ignore? You don't bother me. You are a sheep. Harmless, without an identity, just a foolish avatar picture.

And yet...there it is.

I don't want to "make them listen" you imbecile.
Why would I...they are lost causes,s brain-dead.

Bitch, you've heard of these ideas but you haven't and you can't accept them.
A Christian "knows" Evolution Theory...but he does not accept it.

You are using your own principles and projecting, you idiot.
Who the fuck cares if they listen or not?

They re not my target audience, you moron...I am not here to save the world, to change it, or to offer salvation to anyone.
This is what YOU want.

I don't give a shit about their acknowledgments, their attention, their admiration...you imbecile.
That's what YOU want.

:twisted:

What's wrong with my avatar, sweetness?
Does not everyone have one?

What about that fictitious, symbolic caricature disturbs you?
Have you read the books or did you only see the movie and its Hollywood ending, with the moral lesson?

Why is the character depicted as superhuman: heightened senses, born with six digits in one hand, super intelligent?
Why does he eat humans?
Does he eat anyone?

Yes.
LOL. Well, then I'll take the opposite position in my post titled something like "Philosophy is one of the Greatest Disciplines to Learn."
Well, that and checkers :D

Your the type of guy that had a troubled relationship with your father. Had to "prove" yourself and then to no avail. He looked upon you with disdain and then you ran out of time. Don't do it here, because we don't care. "Sweetheart"

Not even close. Why do you dingbats think you can psycho analyze someone else over the net? I figure that type of analysis tells us a lot more about your character than mine.

Poor moron...forced to fall back on psychoanalysis as if it says anything against my VIEWS!!!
See how you confused the dolt, forcing him to offer his own response?
Funny that if he was not confused he would be cheering you on...like a good sheep.

Like I've said before, moron: I am a black, paraplegic, sociopath, woman...still says nothing against my VIEWS, idiot.
You, ****, are trying to diminish me, in your own eyes, to feel less intimidated and affected.
It would be like dismissing Relativity because Einstein was reported to be a bad father.
And no, ****, I am not comparing myself to Einstein.

Moron...think the worse things about me; try to find something to make me more "comprehensible" to you....you still have left my views intact.

Ad hom emotionalism...twat.
You skirt around the issues to go for the throat, hoping to chock the opposition into silence.

Here are some other facts you dislike, ****:

Social behavior is rooted in a weakness.
Individual organism who cannot survive on their own sacrifice independence so as to be integrated within a cooperative social structure.
This explains why love, the mechanism used to make the tolerance of coexistence possible, so revered worshiped, amongst the sheeple as a God...in fact God=Love.

This is why the kind of undiscriminating love being sold, to needy little minds, is a whore's love: all deserve it, 'love thy neighbor as you do yourself', turn the other cheek like a meek bitch and an emasculated fag....for salvation will be your reward....hedonism in the secular humanist version.

You're a bad father!
Ergo
You're wrong, your position is false, and you ought to be ignored and excluded from the general society.


Wonderful "reasoning", reasonvemotion. We all can see which side of the equation you veer towards!

Hint:
It's not the "reasoning" side.
