Official: Post a Picture of Yourself

Nihilism is merely useless and directionless reactionism, that is why nobody takes it seriously.

No, nihilism is a psychological defence, politics has managed to exploit and manipulate…as well as marketing.
Entirely linguistic and self-referential, requiring conversions and popularity to remain viable.

Nihilism is what this Transgender identity psychosis is based on.

That’s because, historically, one or another rendition of it – God or No God – has accumulated the political power necessary to make life a living hell for one or another rendition of “one of them”.

Some are just more extreme [and more obtuse] than others.

Still, sure, I occasionally pine for the days when, in being an objectivist myself, I was able to think myself into believing that those who were “one of us” embodied the one and the only true moral and political narrative.

Now, you either possess the intelligence necessary to grasp the odds of that yourself, or you will continue to be the equivalent of the shock jock here, pummeling us with your own rendition of Satyr.

No, the moral nihilist suggests instead that in an essentially meaningless No God world, who is to say what the most rational and virtuous direction is? Given that, in his view, “I” here is largely an existential contraption rooted in dasein.

That’s where the objectivists come in. Hundreds and hundreds of them down through the ages able to sustain some measure of comfort and consolation in the believing that they and only they embody the truth about the “human condition”.

The part I tirelessly explain here: viewtopic.php?f=15&t=185296

Oh, and just out of curiosity, how the fuck did this exchange end up in the “post a picture of yourself” thread? Isn’t the whole point of that to allow the male philosophers here to know which female philosophers are worth pursuing…further?

We’ll need a context of course.

I know: Yours!!

Internet whores are teases, not worth pursuing. I’m just here for the laughs. :sunglasses:

Broken record skipping.

That explains a lot of course. You couldn’t possibly be as inane as your posts would lead us to believe. :wink:

Oh, yeah. This is clearly what I am able to reduce the more flagrant objectivists down to here. They’ll either learn their lesson or they won’t.

Let’s see if he does. :laughing:

Insane? I prefer to see myself as a sardonic and cynical eccentric. :sunglasses:

I’m incapable of learning anything from people like yourself that absolutely believes in nothing.

Who just happens to lean, as an Evil Neo-Nazi Extraordinaire, in the general direction of postmodern fascism.

Please, Joker, say it ain’t [b]really[/b] so!!!

If nothing else, you’ll win my respect. :wink:

[size=50][but we’ll keep that a secret][/size]

I admire efficiency that preserves the well being of a nation state and cracks down on systematic corruption, so yes, I like fascism for that reason.

As a nihilist you should have no objections. :sunglasses:

What nation state or ethnos, do you identify with?
Keep in mind all are evil nazis except American Zionism. The Judeo-Puritan symbiont.
Only that socialism and nationalism is permitted and is good. All others are fascist.

There is nobody that wants to see the current Zionist Americanism destroyed more than me.

My ideal is a white European ethnostate within North America.

“Within North America”?!!!
I assume you mean within the US’s current form, or under its dominion, as it has been since the Second War.
Ummm, no dude. US is no ethno-state. It is the very idea of a non-ethno, culture-of-no-culture, state, worshiping the abstraction of freedom/liberty, which, coincidentally, most of tis members can neither define nor believe in.

America is the civilization of Judeo-Christianity, just as Rome was the civilization birthed by Pagan-Hellenism. Currently it has been zombified and is a symbiont of Puritan/Judaism.
It will not survive for long. Like all empires it will decline and fragment.
Afghanistan, as the English knew, was where Empires went to die.
Russians went there before the Soviet collapse; the US is presently there and pulling out.

The Europeans of the US are like its Africans. With no connection to their heritage; mongrels with a minimal sense of identity, seeking a substitute in pop-culture, and it is increasingly becoming like Brazil, a meting pot of genetic dilution, producing nothing but dance and party music - tribal, libidinal energies raised as the pinnacle of human creativity.
See cRap.
The Europe that was the US is quickly vanishing, and with it the entire ex- British Empire.
See Australia, Canada, South Africa…
Only India survives relatively intact because of its Indo-European cast system, and its Bollywood immunity to (((Hollywood))) infestation.

Right, like this observation in and of itself is not an existential contraption rooted in dasein.

Also, efficiency in the service of what ends? The well being of whom in what set of circumstances? Their corruption or ours?

As a nihilist, I recognize that my own objections are predicated more on the political prejudices that “I” have come to embody existentially given the trajectory of my own life. That, in a No God world, there does not appear to be a moral foundation into which one can embed the “real me” in sync with the “right thing to do”.

I merely suggest in turn that this is applicable to objectivists too. And it is the implications of that – the fractured, fragmented self, the “hole” – that they try to avoid at all cost.

Only I have no capacity myself to demonstrate that this is the case. I am not even able to know for certain that I am typing these words of my own volition. Let alone that the answer to this allows me to grasp the human condition going all the way back to an understanding of existence itself.

And, really, come on, how shallow and delusional can the thinking be of those who actually insist that, in regard to fascism or to anything else, their own assessment nails it.

Yet further proof that he’s “just here for the laughs.”

I prefer America with its Diversity. If people can’t accept that, then they’re in the wrong country and should just get out tbh.

It’s cool if European cultures stay European and are able to preserve their values and traditions.

It is also cool if people want to move out of their countries and go somewhere, and still preserve some of their traditions. That makes everyone richer, more worldly and and broadens horizons.

What’s not cool is when people move from somewhere else into your country and try to impose their uses and traditions on the native population, or isolate themselves into pockets and keep other people out.

“Melting pot” countries are by their own spirit and tradition a place of conversion. Their very value is to take everyone in and use all of those things as an ingredient for a new thing.

If people want to be hardcore about their traditions, they can go fucking do that in the place where they come from.

I am speaking as a brazilian/american dual citizen.

Here we share.
