  1. Noone forced men to fought each other and sacrifice themselves except other men. Humans could've had a much more peacefull transition from the Stone Age to present had it not been for the men constantly battering each other skulls and stealing resources from each other. And we all know this, therefore the conclusion of this video is very much a moot point. Notice that even a dimwit such as the guy whose videos you are sharing will accidentally come to the exact same obvious conclussions a feminist would. It's kinda funny
  2. They are interesting, in the ugly sense of that word. They always make sure to look as alien as possible. Because God forbid you look like a natural human, no no no, you need to break every stereotype and you need to look as genderless as possible
  3. Your family and society around you is always going to exert a significant influence over you, that's just how it goes. You can be told how much of a BS it all is countless times but at the end of the day, just for the sake of sheer day to day practicality, you'll end up abiding by the traditions
  4. Is there actually a female protagonist in this movie? I can't tell cause I only watched the trailer and some youtuber's reaction to the movie, therefore it doesn't appear to me like this is the Marry Sue type of movie. I can't be bothered to check it out tho since I can just filter this movie out so easily just by checking out the trailer, I could already tell this movie is shit
  5. It's not even possible to set accurate prices for goods and services in a socialist system. The only way to do so is through free economic choices via a free market; otherwise, you'll always have some group of people arise (which is inevitable, because hierarchies are a necessary feature of our societies and even most living organisms) and artificially decide who deserves to get how much and how resources should be allocated. This obviously doesn't work. And on some level, it's an impossible question to answer anyway, l mean who is to tell who deserves how much? I guess capitalism comes the closest to answering that question but lacks empathy, so ideally there should also be a state strong enough to provide welfare policies for those who fuck up in life, at least to a reasonable degree. I used to entertain socialism as a viable system for some time, but I was a fool for doing so.
  6. I think there are certain traits such as modesty and general inteligence which, if you aren't raised to have both in sufficient ammounts, you'll be the exact target audience for gambling. There are some statistics that support your claim that rates of gambling have increased over the last years and decades, but I'd guess it has more to do with the increased availability, not really due to change of culture or human nature
  7. You should understand that the Great Replacement is a conspiracy theory, you know. Better way to phrase that question would be: is diversity and multiculturalism a threat or a good thing? Well, depends, are you a nazi? There's an entire philosophical way of looking at reality that would claim that it is a bad thing
  8. There is no telling what is going to happen, actually. Given enough time and enough carelessness, A.I. might just exterminate our asses, i.e. everyone, there's up to 20% possibility that's going to happen. In the short to medium term it might reinforce the current wealth inequality even further, but to think you can control and make an aliance with something vastly superior to you is just wishfull thinking
  9. Yeah man I hear you. I wish I was thinking the way you've described
  10. Realistically, working out for health is not very motivating. And nobody actually works out for health. You gotta have some other goals such as beauty, strength etc. otherwise it is never going to stick or you're always just half ass it, so it'll end up not helping you too much, imo
  11. I dissagree vehemently. Please continue lurking in the shadows and just laugh at us all
  12. Oh really? That's an interesting correlation which I ought to look into more. I'm definitely gonna think of this post tomorow morning as I'll be sitting at my desk, sipping on some delicious Wagie-o Americano
  13. I've got the similiar sort of thing with coffee, because I have it internally linked with the feelings of comfort, warmth and this sort of cozy happiness. I think that's the case for you and cigarettes. It's probably all just conditioning which just became etched into our minds over time by advertisements and people around us
  14. This is all true and there are no solutions to this, because this is just the way humanity is. Knowing this, you only really have 2 best possible options: you can either leverage your unfairly inherited abilities and circumstances - along with shitload of luck - to achieve success in life. Or - in case you don't have any abilities/aren't lucky and/or you just don't care - you can just sort of thread along in life, contributing very little or nothing to this society. Noted, in case you pick the first option, you will still be - directly or indirectly - stomping on the heads of those below you on the socio economic ladder your entire life (which is always the case whoever you are, but especially so if you're successfull). I naturally lean towards to second option due to my temperament and life circumstances - working as little as possible, only to mantain my health and grow my finances. Have a 2 room appartment which I'll never rent out. I plan on having no kids. Etc. etc. A life of minimalism
  15. That's crazy. 4 years only? This world is a joke
  16. @ivankiss Bro you are not some badass and protecting a lolcow doesn't make you a good person
  17. What in the Alabama is this thread about Actualized at it's finest, trully
  18. I mean like, both of these responses are valid, but kinda miss the point of what I was trying to get at. Which is that ambition only has meaning within the confines of society, and all the money you'll ever make and all the stuff you'll ever create is only usefull as long as people continue going to their jobs, providing services and creating goods. This is kind of a common sense but if you're the type of individual that is hyperfocused on your goals and ambitions, you'll forget this and take it for granted. People working jobs = your lifestyle
  19. All people from that other forum are complete lolcows, not worth paying even a second of serious attention to, other than for pure entertainment purposes. Although to be frank, it's the kind of entertainment for a more refined tastes, that's for sure
  20. People on this forum have a very infantile view of regular jobs. Probably cause they are only looking at it from an individual perspective. However, even then, remember that all these people are collectivelly and directly responsible for YOUR quality of life as well. Without all these "slaves", you'd become a slave to nature, having to fend for yourself, for literaly everything. Stone Age style
  21. Nothing for me. I'm perfect. Things can (and will) only go downhill from there
  22. Yeah there is reason to be poor whatsoever, other than probably 10k of them I have realized lately btw that absolute majority of people's ambitons could be ended if someone just gave them a million or 2 dollars. I bet most people here are like that as well, including you lol
  23. This is all true, mind and body always naturally find their ways to cope, forget, shift attention to something else and generally survive. But the default state is always lack of some sorts or pain, which then needs to be taken care off. That is one of the main factors fueling my belief in philosophical blackpill. LOL
  24. I also live a pretty easy life materially speaking, compared to other countries, but my point was that life sucks in general. No matter which way you look at it. You don't even have to compare your life to the worst existence has to offer. Althought I do think it can get pretty tolerable once you get majority of your needs met, and also better moments definitely do stand out in the sea of shittiness
  25. My experience of life is that life mostly sucks. Sucks ass, in fact, therefore is it any wonder that we attribute these qualities of wonder, excitement and curiousity to children, a group of beings that haven't experienced anything yet
