I was looking at some of my first posts on this website noticing how my own thoughts has changed alot over the years and by looking at some of my own posts in what was undoubtedly ridiculous part of the time I would probally get in a fight with my past self just by the difference of change that has happened from then to now in myself.
I was looking at some of my old threads thinking to myself, “What the hell was I trying to do there?”
When I first got to this website I was a:
Buddhist, Communist, and a Transcendentalist.
In the present I am a:
Atheist,Nihilist, Anarchist, and a Primitivist
My how our ideologies and perceptions of things change over time.
That’s a massive turn-a-round for any person, Joker!
I don’t think me/my views have changed during the year I’ve been posting here - haha, I had read back over my first postings recently, too, and saw little or no change in me!
I find it very hard to support any position because they all seem to fail. I guess I’m mostly a sophist then. I like to point out the flaws in things, but I can never come up with anything myself that satisfies me. I suppose I am becoming less and less socialist.
How about something that never claims to be true? And, Joker too, have you heard about this? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism
Your embracing of chaos reminds me of discordianism.
Actually I have heard of discordianism and I do somewhat agree with alot that it has to say.
Although I have come into conversation with some discordians who I found to be utterly stupid that has somewhat turned me off from having any part with them.
In short I like their philosophical beliefs on life but I do not like the mainstream adherents who claim to be discordians.
Similar story here. I was a Marxist fanatic and strict ontological materialist, but I eventually rejected all of that dogmatic bullshit and now I consider myself a nihilist, though I’ve come to agree with a lot of Buddhist and Taoist philosophy.
Although most Anarcho-Primitivists individually themselves I can’t stand because they are a bunch of whiny hippies not to mention everytime I go to their forums they dislike my nihilism but nonetheless I like the whole perception of anarchism where people are close within the natural earth.
( Got in a arguement with Jared Diamond one time on the internet. It was a really depressing coversation.)
Whats wrong with advocating peace? Why MUST we be violent towards each other. What does it accomplish? If you want to live in an anarcho-primitivist society, you have to realize the only possibility of it being stable is if people are peaceful.
