The Philosophy Discussion Forum

"BriBri (may he rest in peace until November 1)"

Unbelievable. To think i would go back to a forum from which i was banned for like seven months (for making 'death threats') after defending myself from biker gangs threatening to leave me in a ditch or some such nonsense.

And the admin totally botched it, too He bans me instead of the person who started the death threats... who is now eternally spamming the forum with his daily plebian heartache and struggle.

If that circus didn't blow its chance to be again graced by my presence before, it sure as shit has blown it now.

Heaven will be set ablaze before i ever log into that rest home for the terminally ill, again.

"BriBri"... little pet names for our friends? This is a/the christian missionary cat lady that sent the cops to my house twice. Lol... it's almost like I'm being teased or something. Does this clown want me to shoot a cop? Which part of explaining how one's life has been ruined by being charged and incarcerated twice for shit he didn't do by the State and that one's entire life has become dedicated to revenge against the State... is not clear?

Lol, if i had been arrested when those cops showed up unannounced because they smelled some weed, and i went to jail again and all the bullshit that follows... i might'a ended up resolving to send her the chief of POleece's head in a box and put it on my to-do list.

There are all manner of kooks on the internet, mates. Let this one be an example. And I'm tellin' any newbs that have recently showed up that there is a very decent chance you will become one of them if you stick around.

Why is 'making it personal' so important for a philosopher? Because that's how you find people out. Their 'philosophy' is just what they've most recently read somewhere... or something they've been comfortably committed to for a while and now just repeat absentmindedly. That 'philosophy' won't tell you if the person is a scumbag or a saint.

For instance, there can be a good capitalist if the capitalist is just a confused hypocrite and doesn't know anything about the ethical implications of what he's doing. Like mom 'n pop's burger joint. Good people... but only because they are dumb. But you wouldn't know this unless you got personal. You'd assume they were evil capitalists like all the other ones until you saw how adorable Howard looked when he tried to explain what he knew about capitalism and why it's so good. How could you be angry at that? Look at em. It's like the Ross Perot amateur hour.

Fun fact: the young Albert Fish was forced to drink urine, eat feces, and stand naked to be whipped before his peers by nuns when he was a boy in a (catholic, i think?) foster home.

Okay, so then why didn't all the other badly behaved kids who were punished like this not also become sociopaths? Because they lacked the intelligence and insight Albert had. A healthy child would become permanently deranged by such experiences and from them see much deeper into the nature of things. He would fully absorb the insanity that christianity inflicts on its victims and become a living embodiment of all its turmoil. Later in life, his children, whom he cared for dearly, would find him standing naked on a hill shouting, "I'm Jesus Christ!"

Oh, this dude was something else. Lodged needles up in his groin. Aksed a jailer if he could have some alcohol so he could shove a soaked piece of cloth up'is ass and set the fuckin thing on fire. Said if he wuddint supposed to kill someone, god would stop em before he did. Yeah, we see how great that worked out.

A christian becomes one of two things. Either a docile zombie waiting to die or a complete lunatic. Haven't you noticed?

Fish was the great punisher. We all have to suffer and Fish is gonna see to it once he's done beating himself silly with a nail studded paddle. You want into Heaven, you gotta suffer, pal. That was Albert's motto.

Special thanks to the King James Bible and foster home personnel.

Why is the mud-slinging between angry male and female posters fighting about whose fault it is (men or women's) that we're all so fucked up, such an important philosophical essential? Because it expresses one of, if not THE, most horrible truth second only to the fact of our mortality. That the only thing keeping women from being gang raped by frustrated men everywhere is the law. It's that old evolutionary fact we can't avoid, escape, or ever dispose of.

What is the law, though. In this case, it's a code of conduct set forth by the rich property owning class so that the lower exploited classes won't be preoccupied with fighting over women and instead pay attention to work. 'Social stability', as it were. The nuclear family unit... a pair of mating adults that remain monogamous so that child (future laborer) rearing will go smoothly and there won't be any arguments about whose baby momma dat is.

This monogamous model is still working, and all the little conflicts that result from this unnatural arrangement (men are polygamous) are resolved by channeling frustrated libidinal energy into commodity fetishism. If you can't get laid, buy stuff.

The priest, the politician, and the hypergamous woman. Three indispensable tools for the capitalist class.

Anyone who does not take up arms after hearing this has got to be already dead.

The capitalist loan sharks (Visa, Master Card, etc). You don't HAVE to use our services, so you're making a free choice to do so... but something tells us a good eighty percent of you will not only want our services but absolutely need them to live. Hey, man, we didn't make the rules, and you don't have to apply for a card. So get off our back, etc. It's the by-stander effect, but different. When nobody does anything to help because they think someone else is about to. In this case, every capitalist is a part of the problem... and every capitalist says he's not a problem... the other ones are. If you can't buy guy's products, it's because you're too broke from your credit card payments. If you can't make your credit card payments, it's because you're too broke from buying guy's products.

Yesterday, i made payment number three on the $5,000+ i needed so i could pay the capitalist to break my truck three months ago, and of the $200, only $57 applied to the principle. I just gave a credit card company almost $150 dollars in interest only in a single payment.

This is all new to me, bruv. Never used a credit card before. I work for a living and don't buy shit with money i don't have.

What's so beautiful about this story is that it's not that i am incapable of making money but that my means of acquiring employment have been artifically sabotaged by the State (for reasons explained 128 times). In the last month I've had maybe three job calls... one of which i had to turn down because the other entity, the capitalist garage owner, incapacitated my truck.

Are you seeing the pattern... the little pieces of puzzle that fit together? What do these three entities have in common; Master Card, state prosecutor's office, and garage owner. 1 and 3 rely on each other to stay in business and f*** the citizen for profit. 2, like 1 and 3, fucks the citizen but for personal professional advancement (see plea bargaining, conviction quotas, etc). Now, nine times out of ten if a citizen finds himself before 2, it's because of something 1 or 3 did. The vast majority of crime is theft... and the vast majority of thieves are blue-collar. You don't even need to do the math. I did it for you.

It's called The Great Circle Of Capitalists, and you are treading water right in the middle of em.

Even if these unique trappings happen only once as they have in a black swan event such as myself, there ceases to be the rule with this single exception. With this event, the legitimacy of everything around collapses.

Woe to he who is still going as if everything around him is not now smoke and ash. His god, his State, his civil laws, all of it. Poof.

A student once aksed his teacher "how does one live when they are not a Promethean, master?" The teacher replied "this is a non-sequitor. One does not truly live unless they are a Promethean."

f*** i may never pay this fuckin' debt off. Not at a measley $200 a month.
