You're right sociology is stupid. We should employ death brigade who ride around in Oregon on Scooter with Uzi to kill on sight drugs consumers, way more simple. Btw i'm too stupid to do philosophy studies; it requires to succeed a perfect plan to have good degrees and made connections, i should rather buy a gun and do carjacking; way more rational too. That's why you want to put them in prison.

No it's very easy if you have a minimum of friends/social circle. There's an increase in places where it's legal, like recently Canada or some American states, but it's not much higher, and European countries with lax legislation (the Netherlands, Spain, etc.) have a similar consumption rate to countries with stricter legislation (like France). It's also difficult to make a comparison because you can't directly quantify the consumption of something illegal; you can only make estimates, which are often probably lower than the actual consumption. There are also those who take advantage of consumption to use it as a substitute for antidepressants or painkillers. Or even as a substitute for alcohol or cigarettes. Because once again even if it's illegal, unless you're very antisocial it's still very easy to find narcotics.

@ExploringReality @Leo Gura Individuality is forged by survival, which makes it the consequence of social relationships; That's why it's easier to quit smoking when you're rich and not very stressed (social relationships are so diverse, and there's the genetic factor, so there's no point in saying "I know a poor, stressed-out person who quit smoking") than when you're not; that's Marxist dialectical materialism. But if you're too narcissistic to accept both your privileges and your powerlessness, then you'll deny this social genetics of individualization and end up with a mediocre epistemiology with its at best idealistic, at worst strange and neurotic language elements ("the truth," "it's the devil," lol) and its uselessness. Because for me, a good epistemiology is one that serves a purpose; and there's no point in telling someone they're not doing what they should be doing "because they don't want to see the truth" or something like that. It's taking the other for a fool and it's useless, on an individual scale in a psychologist's office or on a collective scale in politics you can't do anything about that.

Sexy

Thanks. I am a nice guy 👺 Whatever makes you happy. A life purpose can be anything, even running a flower shop. Then it's up to you to find a frequency that appeals to you, and stick to it.

Be more present in the moment, with small, short-term goals. For example, "Today I'm going to submit some resumes," or "Today I'm going to read this book a bit," or "I'm going to get rid of my cell phone or headphones because they're distracting, and I know that if I keep them, I'll use them." "Today I'm going to flirt with the cashier." "I'm going to get rid of my computer (complicated, eheh) because social media is crushing my ego," etc. The human brain is designed to function in the short term, quietly ;Otherwise, you'll become mentally ill, develop attention problems, be unable to produce quality work and progress in general. It is tranquility, gentleness, the love of a job well done that brings, and paradoxically brings quickly, intelligence, productivity, and well-being.

Republican states like Texas are very wealthy and educated and have a high rate of fertility. Same for Africans, you can't just say "it's because they're poor blacks with an IQ of 80 so they have a lot of children” it's not even true, demographic redistribution is very unequal in Africa. It's easier to have children in some places in Africa because it's part of the culture, there are still strong family structures, because as these are still very agricultural countries food is cheap. Access to contraception is also less easy and they have less access to entertainment goods (which most of the time do not require a significant level of education and are mainly a means of escape).

France is the most redistributive country in Europe with Danemark. And it’s also the European country with the highest fertility rate. The second country with the highest fertility rate is Sweden, which is very redistributive too. Eastern and southern countries have the worst fertility rates, Great Britain and Central European countries are in the middle. So it gives me right; The fertility rate in European countries is even positively correlated with education, as long as the conditions of the social body are favorable.

Wealth corrupts because it owns you. Also, humans still have the same brains as in the paleolithic period, so most of the most pleasant things are simple things.

Yes lol, although of course a compatible girl is better than any ice cream.

It's just conditioning.

I had a huge crush in middle school. Then in high school, I wasn't really interested in girls, and afterward, I socially isolated myself and suffered from very severe insomnia for over three years, so I didn't fall in love or even met girls. Some girls actually gravitated toward me when I was still present in college, but I didn't care because of my health in particular but also because I felt nothing for them. Indeed i have no problem talking to girls and asking for their number, it's like talking to the postman. Probably if I were in love I would be softer, but that wasn't the point.

I see girls as giant ice creams of different flavors and/or sizes that I potentially want to enjoy. In this setting, there's no fear or "simping," because you don't "need" her; she imposes herself on you, just as the taste of strawberry ice cream imposes itself on you when you bite into it; you simply enjoy what's available. The more performative, directed by ego I am, the less it works.

@Jowblob Do you have siddhis ?

Yes you are right it is very stupid, I was just criticizing the fact of saying that he is ruthless/said "horrifying" things. I myself am very left-wing.

It's easier to have children when women don't work/and where your family can take care of them. Rich, redistributionist countries like France have a much higher fertility rate than traditional, poor countries, but without social policies to partially offset the atomization process (Eastern countries, South America, etc.). People with mental illnesses, or simply neurotics, are also less likely to have children or be sociable in general. But mental health is a social issue; engaging in social activities or seeing a psychologist is not without cost; the childhood traumas that lead to these mental illnesses are also social (alcoholic parents, reproduction of family patterns, etc.). So, there's no problem: people with a higher level of education will have more children, and the children of less educated parents will be more likely to have a significantly higher intellect if environmental conditions improve.

I should point out that I am not particularly pro-Israeli; I just have no interest in this conflict and this opinion was a one-off.

It's the same for what you call your life path, you can lose it and you will pay the bill.

It's completely open to criticism, but he doesn't say anything special; that the "left is dangerous" and that it's terrible that Kirk got killed. And then you say he's "cruel" before insulting him? lol You prove him right.

Masculinity is about being nothing, that's why men tend to be dominant sexually or in general in life because why would you want, be exited to the idea of being dominated/reduced when that's already your normal state, you can only want to go to where (you think) you're not already. So, Valentin is not a subject; Valentin is nothing, and the rest is all that is most important. From the warmth of my big black sweater, to the effect of nicotine, including the sight of an ass. It's all about submitting to the big other, as Lacan would say. Love is the impulse to make something exist, more of a symbol for men, and an imaginary one for women; even though technically we all live more or less across both orders.

Of course it's a poor country; it's a Central American island under embargo for 70 years, what don't you understand? It's like that everywhere on the planet, actually; I too can show you documentaries about poor neighborhoods in the United States that will make Cuba look like a safe place. Contrary to what you say, city dwellers don't have power outages, and even if this is the case in rural areas/smaller towns, ultimately 99% of the population has access to it. This is slightly more than all other Central American countries and equal to that of South American countries. And yes, there are poor people in your videos, but even in France and the United States, there are people starving too; if there weren't access to medicine and decent nutrition, Cuba wouldn't have an average life expectancy of 5 years longer than the United States. A small, almost resourceless island, with a population descended mainly from spanish farmers and a few black slaves, under an embargo, got a higher life expectancy than the world's leading power. Again. 1)Mao isn't the "Marxism" 2)China was a poor, backward, very corrupt country, divided between Chiang Kai-shek and warlords, which suffered the war against the Japanese and then the civil war between the nationalist party and a communist party; all of eastern China from Guanxi to Manchuria (Hoi4 helps me revise my geography😎) was damaged. Between 15 and 20 million people died during the war against the Japanese, and up to 10 million died in the civil war. And despite all that, and his nonsense, Mao left behind a stable Chinese state, largely free of corruption, and one that had begun its industrialization. Deng Xiaoping did indeed enrich China, but it wasn't thanks to market liberalization per se; Maoism was isolationist, and China was therefore an autarkic state. Opening up to the international market and the possibility of a private market allowed foreign investors to come and thus bring back their capital, and also their expertise. Even today, China is very statist, and that doesn't prevent it from becoming the second world power; probably soon the first. No Marxists today are in favor of autarky; most are alterglobalist because that's simply the rational position. No, technological progress and power relations do.

Wanting to make someone exist.
