Why is everyone in Silicon valley completely insane? What philosophy would you even call this?
>>108391692
>>108391692Andreesen is one of the more sane ones though.
why haven't mods made twitter screen caps instaban yet? it would instantly improve the quality of the board by orders of magnitude. How much do they hate us that it's been years of this happening clearly eroding the culture of the board and they still have done nothing about it. There's not a single twitter screencap thread that has spawned valuable discussion ever.
>>108391692>Why is everyone in Silicon valley completely insane?That's just rich people in general.
>>108391799twitter is right there, if you want to talk about things that are on twitter, there's a comment button on the tweet. If we wanted to discuss things that are on twitter, we'd be on twitter doing it. OP, why do you personally feel the need to being twitter to 4chan /g/? Stop it, just talk about it on twitter
Vc nepobabies are the smartest people of our time
>>108391757Well, it's a breath of fresh air from the usual Silicon Valley nutcase. He's anti-DEI and makes troons mad. This should be enough to explain him. His stance on the mind may just be a troll. Who knows. You could say he's just dismissing their Pythagorean/Platonic overemphasis on Rationalism and the sense of "mind" being a thing unto itself. This is what led to Gnosticism and the idea that the Mind is more important than matter. Troons are Gnostics themselves (whether they know it or not) and derive their sense of "Identity" solely from bullshit in their heads, completely removed from material reality (i.e. YWNBAW). Same goes for the bulk of Silicon Valley, who are also Gnostics by way of being transhumanists. They are AI cultists (ala Ray Kurzweil) who dream of uploading their minds to a machine and living forever....and probably think they'll rule forever too.I doubt Andreesen truly believes he's not a "person" inside, but there's a method to a madness. And if there isn't, he can borrow the one that I just proposed.
>>108391834He's also not a luddite btw...despite not being a Gnostic. He's properly in the old school. He thinks of AI as augmentation, just as every other computer is. Not a replacement.This is the sane stance.
>>108391692I do think it’s worth asking how Silicon Valley and IT in general is as disconnected as it is from regular people. The enthusiasm around AI is autism-esque. It’s a shame Steve Jobs passed away when he did to let people know it’s a glorified tape recorder.
>>108391875Steve would've been anti-vax, I think. It would've been the final epic showdown between Bill and Steve.
>>108391834>Anti-DEIHe's not though, he said he supported woke because he thought it would be easy to control. It got a little out of hand so now he joined the anti-woke side because now he thinks they'll be easier to control. He has no real philosophy or opinions at all, he's basically a machine that supports what ever she thinks will be the optimum solution. This is why so many in Big Tech are golems for Israel, they're easily manipulated by people who DO have concrete ideologies and goals.
>>108391891I stand corrected. Here's hoping he settled there.I could've sworn it was partly personal. Like they tried to canceling him or something. Maybe it was someone else.
>>108391875Autism combined with spending too much time on computers and the Internet can lead to disassociation, and extreme cases complete separation of the idea of consciousness vs the body. It's why gnosticism, solipsism and transhumanism are so popular on the Internet, along with AGP and transgender activism. Its also why ketamine is so popular in SV as well.
>>108391692Honestly, if I had all the money in the world and nothing else to do in life, I'd go insane for fun too.
>>108391692The philosophy of SV was built by Burning Man. That lone should tell you enough.
>>108391757pzombie
>>108391940His brand of autism is countering the troon autism (gnosticism) though. He's circling back to matter and biology rather than just falling deeper into the rabbit hole of mind.I do think he's wrong (that is, I think there must be a balance), but what he says is still necessary, just as a counteraction. People need to be knocked down a peg.
>>108391757this nigga an llm
>>108391923You may be right that he's not quite as cynical as I thought, it seems like he really does regret not supporting Brendon Eich when he was fired from Mozilla.
>>1083918193/4 is waste of time and makes him dumber. nice.
>>108391969It seems like a competition between gnosticism and pre-Christian paganism.>Gnosticism Reality is an illusion, your consciousness is not your body. Deny your flesh, the only real goal is escaping this cursed world.>Paganism Nature and material reality are what matters most, afterlife is largely irrelevant, what you do to earn fame is what's important. The body is is real, Nature is real and sacrilized, what's left after your body decays is just a ghost, sacrifices to the Gods are largely for practical goals.Christianity can be seen as a middle path, your soul is the most important thing but your body is a temple and humans should still be caretakers of the Earth.
>>108391805This. They got prions from eating children
>>108391799because they are twitterfags themselves, they are probably the ones who make these threads
>>108391692how does he think about what is worthy of an investment?
Seems like a fun argument for him to make, but how does he account for learned behaviors?
>>108391799the website would die if they did that
>>108392380if enough billionaires ask him for money on something then he gives it
>>108391692Yeah billionaires are like predators, idk what mental disease is that
>>108391799Because, and I can't express this strongly enough, FUCK JANNIES!!!
>>108391692Just another hylicMost humans are
>>108392953We share rhe world with a majority hylics, whose vote carry as much as weight as our own. They knew and that's why they steered us to democracy. And I hate them for it.
>>108392306I don't even wanna make it about gatekeeping what people are allowed to like to be part of the 4chan cool club. There is just 0 reason to have these conversations here when they could happen on twitter directly. By and for people who WANT to see things from twitter and talk about them >>108392413the website being slower is fine >>108392912jannies don't decide what is against the rules, the mods do
>>108391692We just call them kike demons
>>108393050Mods, jannies, OP, same difference. Fuck them all.
>>108393081I'm frustrated too but the fact is we are left holding our limp cocks here. The only thing we can do is appeal to the people running this website or leave, and we both know leaving isn't an option.
>>108393119How hard is to make an extension that autoreports twitter/reddit screencaps as 'extremely low quality'? Maybe throw it into some cronjob to do it all day every day. Or integrate it into 4chanx so the reports come distributed ("[ ] autoreport low quality threads" or something). Let's flood the jannies so they take the fight 'upstairs'.
>>108391834>clear signs of brain damage>anti-DEIThese things keep correlating.
>>108393158that's a good idea anon, I'll take care of it
>>108393179Thank you, anon! Keep me posted.
>>108391799for the same reason why jeetland will never be range-banned.this is 4jeet now.
>>108391799Because niggrjews would have to stop niggrjewing and we can have niggrjews not be niggrjews
>>108393192it'll take me a bit to find a good balance between false positives and compute. I'll make a few threads about it in the coming weeks. Let me know if you have implementation ideas
>>108391692Maybe he just read Dennet.>>108391834Good post.
>>108391940shit, I'm the extreme
>>108391692To put it simply, they are all trying to find the incarnated soul of, Ha-Satan, the chief prosecutor of gods divine council because they do not know their name, which is apparently why, Charlie Kirk, was killed (according to /pol/) because 'They do not know your name'.
do you think he can see the apple?
>>108394837He's at 3 but tries to convince himself to be a 6 - the nonexistence of the room which in the apple is.
>>108391858lmao that man is far from sane. One of SVs biggest ghouls
>>108391692>a billionaire is a sociopathwow no way
>>108391834>anti-DEI is a breath of fesh air from the usual Silicon Valley nutcasehalf the SV nutcases (Musk, Thiel, Altman, Zuck, etc) are pseudo-libertarians who claim they are going to save the human race from extinction, the AntiChrist, and other retarded shit. but in reality they are the "abolish the age of consent" type libertarians with a side of "use money to control every facet of your life and bring about a new feudalistic society with them and their kin at the top"they don't care about DEI one way or the other unless it makes them money
>>108391799>twitter screencap bad>reddit youtube screencap goodbr0wn tr00n
>>108394837if he can recognise an apple then he can visualise onethat's how recollection works, you compare visual data with your own memories, and if it matches then you've recognised itIf somebody can't recognise an apple because maybe it's a slightly different hue, or it's misshapen, then they're either severely mentally handicapped, or an LLM
>>108395209Lot of people on this planet have under developed, toddler tier souls. You see, if they didn't, they wouldn't be so attached to materialism and "money" in the first place. But this is a discussion what is really dangerous because so many people will get instantly butthurt about this fact.
>>108391692Ironically Steve Jobs was the only guy keeping Silicon Valley grounded in reality. Everyone loves to hate him but he was the last tech CEO who actually made things primarily for the sake of improving regular peoples' lives and not for money.
>>108395209many people can recognize an apple but can't visualize one
>>108391692Introspection is just a euphemism for mental illness.
>>108394837>>108395254
>>108394869They care and it bothers them, but not that much, they're best modeled by >look, I'm just playing for a money highscore, and am trying to make up for a terminal lack of drugs and pussy in high schooland from that mental framework, most current public stances of these types are mostly just nihilistic>The admin likes vice and corruption and pay-to-play, my business interests benefit from regulations harming competitors, deregulation in my spaces, and payola, I'll play the game because I'd rather pay a 50m bribe for a billion dollar tax break than have potus decide I'm an enemy of the people or whatever and try to Anthropic my business as a supply chain risk or other legal fuckeryAndreesen just happens to sprinkle in a little natural retardation as well on the standard "gotta be corrupt to get anywhere in this town" belief set (plus it is advantageous as a VC to be at least a little retarded, or you end up too cynical to hand 100 other retards money and have a few of them make you a billionaire when it pays out)>>108391692
>>108391940>Autism combined with spending too much time on computers and the Internet can lead to disassociation, and extreme cases complete separation of the idea of consciousness vs the body.I swear to god that this is a problem that nobody really talks about and it's annoying as fuck because of how common it is, so many bizarre interactions seem to stem from people who have just forgotten they're an actual physical person
>>108391890Kino
>>108391692>What philosophy would you even call this?they're sociopathsA sociopath is someone who displays manipulative behavior, a lack of empathy, and impulsiveness—key traits associated with a severe form of antisocial personality disorder (ASPD). Sociopaths do not have a fully functional conscience and tend to be manipulative, exploitative, or even abusive toward other people. Recognizing sociopathic tendencies, such as superficial charm, emotional detachment, and a disregard for social norms, can help identify individuals with this personality type.
>>108391757Refute this without appealing to new-age schizobabble or 2000-year-old schizobabble.
>>108391757I have no internal monologue and I say things like this
>>108397258How would I refute something like that? You can't see into my mind.
>reddit screencapit's because you give them attention and money
>>108395037This is literally a twitter screencap taken from a reddit threadhttps://www.reddit.com/r/redscarepod/comments/1rw4zym/amazing_the_degree_to_which_the_titans_of_silicon/So which one is it, good because twitter is epic or bad because reddit is bad?
>>108391799>>108392413For a website that could no longer produce bangers of the old days like IOS 8 microwave update, its users have the nerve to gatekeep.
>>108397258The fact that I personally do have introspection and a longer attention span than 15 seconds?
>>108397258>Refute this... I can remember things from more than 15 seconds ago?
>>108393119>The only thing we can do is appeal to the people running this websiteHiro doesnt glance here anymore and only acknowledges the site as whatever number of revenue shows on his wallet. Plus hes got a new grift going on.The main mod rapeape is on twitter 24/7 and also doesnt care.Youre talking about spending effort trying to appeal to people could genuinely, unironically not care less about the place.
>>108391692>What philosophy would you even call this?Freethinking>be retard who only knows about computers>try thinking for yourself>uh guise I think we might just be computers>we can avoid death by uploading our mind-software to a computerFreethinking is like trying to hit 5 billiard balls in a line when you suck at even playing normally. You might think you can make it, but you'll fail miserably. The difference is that with billiard you'll see how you fucked up, with freethinking you'll persist in retardation until you get an even stupider idea. That's why all these uncultured Silicon Valley retards latch onto the stupid ideas floating around, and their financial success fools them into thinking they might just be good at thinking.
>>108391692>more perfect commiesunironically based channel>>108391834you have to remember that corpos and fagman adopting lgbt was mostly a concession they made to the irate worker class, specifically the leftist sect where they successfully manufactured a problem they were receptive too, one they could then tout the fix for themselves.ditching the cloak of niggers and legbutt only means these same leftists can now break free of the conditioning and start going against the rich in earnest. these stock market parasites are banking on the fact that the maga base will be willing to take up the sword and defend their honor in the coming class war, or at least they believe they've so thoroughly won god emperor trump over that they don't even need popular support anymore.
>>108398094receptive to*
the entire silicon valley is on drugs because of hippy culture influence, no wonder they're crazy
>>108391692Silicon Valley is Judaist Feminism at its core with enforcement of Noahide laws for the rest of us with no rules for them. They basically openly support anything Epstein adjacent until its no longer feasible to do so. (covering up pizza gate and epstein files until Elon bought X and started to release them.) They are scum of the earth; That's what and so is Rapeape janitor who's in with that crew fully despite whatever he tries to tell you to win brownie points with law enforcement he cries to on a daily basis whenever an anon makes Rapeape's raped anus hurt; That's why they are all in on the whole big-tech censorship of the goyim agenda whilst Jews can have what the Goyim don't. Mark of the Beast is the pushing of the acceptance of the worship of Israelis and the false Christ from the synagogue of Satan. (The Pope.)e
>>108391799the twitter screencap posters are in cahoots with the jannies. they're in the same cp trading discord.
>>108398160I don't think they use discord to trade CP; don't they use signal, telegram and some other platform for that?
>>108391757>>108391819He's right about both of these things. Copers gonna cope.
>>108397148Once you start noticing it it's everywhere. It's invaded political discourse, with the focus on bodies, i.e. black bodies, fat bodies. People treat their bodies as separate entities from themselves. This is especially true with mental health discourse, people will go to therapy or take drugs but won't ever consider exercising and eating healthy. The brain is a biological organ but people refuse to consider that their physical health can influence their mental health. They never exercise, never go outside, eat doordash, have no irl friends, and wonder why they're unhappy.

>>108395254>made things primarily for the sake of improving regular peoples' liveswat
>>108391692If you've never actually worked directly with executives you'd never really understand. I'm talking VPs in 10k+ orgs and CEOs of smaller ones. They're psychopaths that excel at self preservation and self aggrandizement. They make sweeping decisions based on gut feelings and vibes. Everyone's job, their entire reality really, hangs on how they feel that day. Their only goal is to cut costs no matter what, fuck the long term, and if they succeed they are rewarded beyond your wildest dreams. I have no idea how society idolizes them and let's them air their ideas out in the open. It's the shame of our time. I've met 2 that aren't mouth breathers that talk a big game. Your average tech fag is at least twice as intelligent and a decent human being in comparison. So many fell for the merit meme. Merit just doesn't exist in this world.
>>108391757Well, i guess getting people to start believing that is probably easier than delivering gAI and more palatable than admitting to an investment fuck up.If we see articles in the next few months about tech bros pushing to change the academic definitions of sapience and sentience we'll know the writing is on the wall.
>>108402906Biggest bullshit I’ve heard in my life. Did you learn this on Reddit? People that successful analyze EVERYTHING, because if they don’t, they’ll lose to someone who does t. Went to Yale and have a 80 mil Val VC backed series A company. Tons of friends in VC, PE, founders, IB

>>108391692If he's going to use words and phrases with his own made up definitions, he should define them, because he seems to mean something different from what most people would take those words and phrases to mean.
>>108392380If thing has AI in it or sounds futuristic enough he invests into it. Average Tesla investor.
>>108403317You do not have the time, stamina, or intelligence to analyze everything about 'your company'. Not even close. As an exec, to pretend you know more about a specific subset of your 'large' company than even a director is honestly a fucking joke. You manage people and make decisions based on presented data, the keyword being PRESENTED. You don't do things. Your entire value is to maximize profit, and to do that you have to focus on presenting yourself well more-so than just about anything else. Seethe and cope.80 mil isn't even large. You might actually be doing grunt work so none of this applies.
>>108391692>>108391757>>108391819These are the people telling you that all of us will be rich when AI agents automate 80% of jobs.

>>108391799it's the other way around
>>108391757I disagree with him but the way he frames it, it seems that he wants you to be in a constant zen state and let go because introspection more often than not leads to rumination. I don't think he's saying to be a mindless ape, I think he just has a hard time of conveying the idea of living in the moment. He's trying to be profound without having the necessary knowledge to articulate that so he has to latch onto buzzwords and random stuff he learned from popscience.
Why'd you vote them into office then, dumb cunt?
>>108391757He's right
>>108403505Short term memory is remembering the event as it happened, the memory is stored in the prefrontal cortex. Long term memory is the event being broken down and stored across the brain, which includes the areas for emotion and all other parts. This affects the memory, cross contaminating with other memory and feeling and the memory is no longer the memory. It's a reconstructed story by the brain. It's fake because it is no longer the same memory you had when you first experienced the event, the brain has rewritten it.
>>108391819And in this world, I, the hobo wizard, will reign supreme. For I have understanding of the arcane arts.
>>108406440and when you remember the event the brain has to reconstruct the memory, which is done by the hippocampus. It has to take the memory stored across the brain, merged with other memory and reconstruct the event as it originally happened. It's a miracle that its able to do a decent job of it at all when the data has been corrupted.

>>108410711about time someone answered the question without being completely fucking wrong and checked
>>108404039No they do because podcast hosts press them on that. While some of them like Peter Thiel are genuinely cruel and will kill off humanity the moment economy does not need workers, but most of them are just gullible retards that don't understand economics. Elon Musk for example keeps talking about UHI, Universal High Income. Yes he could be lying, but I think it is just more likely from the way he talks that he is just autistic retard that thinks Earth has infinite resources and we can all just upskill to become CEOs of robots, or that AI will create near infinite wealth, so that just by giving 1% of it to the useless eaters we will have standards of life that people who earn 500k a year have now. Same goes for Marc Andreessen, every interview he just talks about how much upskilling he will do as if supply was only limited by people working and demand is infinite.
>>108410699Well you're wrong. Class warfare is a meme and the ties between people go much deeper than money.A ghetto black would associate much more with a rich black than a white that makes just as much money as him. A poor as shit orthodox Jew would befriend a billionaire Jew much easier than either of them would befriend a gentile.Any conflict in history that could be considered a class war was much more strongly impacted by ethnic, national and racial barriers. Communism was nothing more than Jewish revanchism towards Europeans and they took a lot of pleasure in the rape and genocide they committed. Even revolts like Florian Geyer's weren't as simple as that.
>>108391799the people mad about twitter are primarily anime avatar attention whores
>>108410876no he wouldn't. real and faux niggas are a big point of contention in nigger culture. making it big and not giving back to the hood or whatever is highly frowned upon. every nigger hates their jew handlers too.an orthodox jew is a freeloader. nothing out of the ordinary suck up to your sugar daddy.not addressing your boomer ass ideas on communism
>>108391692Not sure if genuine sociopath or just a cringe fedora dork. Either way, i don't really care what this billionaire has to say. Please stop posting twitter screencap threads nigga
>>108410945You had best start caring. He will be your feudal lord in 10 years
>>108410907"real and faux niggas" are not separated by wealth or class. Your own counter-example doesn't support your point.>boomer ass ideas on communismI doubt you've ever talked to a boomer if you think Jewish tribalism is their explanation for communism.
>>108391692I mean, he's lying. It's like people who pretend like optical illusions don't work on them. I mean, you can't prove it.They have that kind of low test edge to them, women are that way too, they lie a lot, but in ways you can't really exactly prove.
>>108391692Anon, that is just a regular NPC.
>>108411090they are, stupid.and yes you have a boomer worldview.
>>108411246They aren't even according to you, retard. A "real nigga" can be rich per your own words. >and yes you have a boomer worldview.Not at all.
>>108391805I said this to my brother in law, imagine for a moment that you have $10 million in the bank, are you going to wake up in the morning and think “time to go to work”? Hell no, only an insane person would think that, and that’s who becomes billionaires.
>>108411256lmao you argue like a redditor. you could try allocating even 1% of your thoughts away from rampant attempts at falsification and instead try to understand what I'm getting at. well suit yourself, people like you can't ever be convinced of anything.
>>108411270this is a fallacy. They don't go to "work". They wake up and think "I have 10 million dollars, how can I use this money to enslave the goyim". They calculate how much money they will need to enslave all of humanity and it comes out to be a lot, so they find ways for their money to multiply quickly, like compound interest. You're delusional if you think they are "work"aholics. Most of them don't do anything on a day to day basis, they just direct all of their wealth towards enslaving you and extracting more wealth from you
>>108411278I know what you're getting at you dipshit, that's directly what I'm disagreeing with. What is the non-redditor way to argue? Just agreeing with the stupid garbage you're saying?
>>108411335that you try to argue the main point. whatever you have fun baiting the next chump into rolling in the pigsty with you
>>108411363I did argue the main point. The point was that the idea of "class war" is retarded. People care more about blood, culture and religion than they do about some random person's income. You have tried to counter it with some retarded example of black people judging some rich blacks that separate themselves from the ghetto, but conceded that poor blacks still like plenty of rich blacks if they don't do that.Your argument sucks and you're stupid. Now run away already like the loser you are.
>>108411389the state of the industrialized economy is the source of all strife. you wouldn't understand that
you might remember my bald head and name in tech from three years ago but not my comments
>>108394837this type of demi-humanoid can't even touch an apple in front of them for the phobia of a single baterium that must exist solely to reduce the potential lifespan of this specific demi-human, as if it is a precision targeted attack on it
>>108411002Are you an ashkenazi jew by any chance? Because you're clearly having a schizo moment if you think that's gonna happen.
>>108411397Then surely non-industrialized countries currently on the planet would be heaven on earth, no? I hear Somalia has a small industry, take a trip over there and enjoy paradise.
>>108411435that's not what I meant. I'm saying in industrial economies the state of it is the primary determinant for the quality of nigh all aspects of life.
>>108411495I don't understand what you're trying to say.
>>108411540good times are entirely the result of a good economy. when the economy is bad everything else is bad. you start to dislike the people you're close with more than you'd otherwise like them. your mood in general falls, and the stress causes more chronic illnesses. the economy is all encompassing today and drives every metric of our experience.
>>108411558Sectarianism and tribalism are inherent properties of human behavior. You're right that they can be hidden to some extent during times of peace and prosperity, but they are not caused by poverty.
>>108411593save for the truly religious (which outside zionism is not tribalist), money is the only spiritual/abstract concept everyone believes in nowadays. every other concept is cope for explaining away the effects of a bad economy. it's why we never see a strengthening of other ideals when money is prevalent. those ideals never trump money.
>>108391757This is your brain on Daniel Dennett. Just say no.
>>108411652America is a country that has spent literally trillions of its money to support zionist interests in the Middle East with no actual financial benefit to itself.
>>108411768that's the cult of evangelicals, a religious thing. separate from zionism which is the beast they created, as sort of an object of worship. and even then evangelicalism was taken over by the rich when its center of power went from UK to US where the cult becomes largely a tool for systematically enacting political change.
>>108411811Ok so you admit therefore that countries can be led by ideologies whose purpose is not direct profit?
>>108411820who said anything about profit? what makes you think this is a capitalist/communist dichotomy? the rich are actively imposing their religious virtues on the whole nation to great consequence. how is that not an argument for my case?
>>108391692you literally cannot become a billionaire unless you are a psyco/sociopath
>>108411831Cause you previously said "money is the only spiritual/abstract concept everyone believes in nowadays" and now you're saying it's not about making money?
>>108411847I carved an exception for religion.
>>108411852religion is for retards, ai is for chads
>>108411866ai is a religion too. I mean roko's basilisk, what the fuck is that?
>>108411852But that's what I fucking said before and you disagreed.>The point was that the idea of "class war" is retarded. People care more about blood, culture and religion than they do about some random person's income.
>>108411875how so? roko is real
>>108411883religion is not tribalism which is the other two things you argued. lol you tried to stay civil for so long and struck when you thought you had your zinger and failed miserably. so sad
>>108411908>religion is not tribalismwhat >you tried to stay civil for so longI was civil until you called me names and then I responded. That's how it works.
>>108411942if you can join the tribe with zero entry requirements or other restrictions it's barely a tribe.where did I call you names in >>108411811? you were hopping mad the entire time lol you just kept your cool for a couple posts which is commendable at the very least. work on your anger issues
>>108411963you got confrontational here >>108411278>>108410907>inb4 that's not youWhat are you even talking about anyway? The fact that I used the word "fucking" or what? >if you can join the tribe with zero entry requirements or other restrictions it's barely a tribe.Fascinating. What dictionary backs up your definition? Also most religions do have entry requirements.
>>108411990that was me. I was only reacting to your own aggression. again you were positively fuming the whole time you tried to keep it in. that is so hilarious in hindsight.>fascinatingyeah. given that I have been saying it was not tribalism from the start. glad you agree. those entry requirements are there for show and you know it. scientology has an entry fee but again that just serves to make my argument. damn I keep winning
>>108412005Reacting to what aggression? You started, faggot.>given that I have been saying it was not tribalism from the start. glad you agree. Do you think "fascinating" stands for "I agree with you" or something? I don't care about the personal definitions you create in your head. This is the part where you pretend you've been shitposting and trolling all along.
>>108391805ThisThey live in a fundamentally different and often times invasive world than the regular people do.
>>108412020I'm not interested in playing the blame game with you. I'm only interested in laughing at you.>Do you think "fascinating" stands for "I agree with you" or something? I don't care about the personal definitions you create in your head. haha, stop making this funnier than it already is, man.
>>108412034Called it.
>>108412050>ziiing!!lmao just as planned. well I was bored of this anyway. you were too dumb to have squirmed for long
>>108412062I guess you'll have to go back to bunkerchan with the rest of your fellow intellectual communists now. We'll all miss ya.
>>108412102>commie!!!pathetic. at least it's mask off for you and what's making you seethe all this while
>>108412109kek why are you so ashamed of your own ideology?
>>108391891These people are such retards. They don't deserve to be leaders.
>>108401504That is, in fact, not the ultimate goal. I'm not even sure you know what Christianity is.
>>108412121I prefer socialism with chinese characteristics, which is probably the polar opposite of communism. they call it state capitalism actually.make no mistake, I also think we should have communism when abundance is achieved. which I believe to be coming too.
>>108399110>>108397148Programming makes you actually bad at philosophy.
>>108412128It's just nationalism/fascism but with statues of Marx everywhere.
>>108412128>I'm not a communist that's pathetic of you to say>but yes I want communism
>>108412139that's more of a mao thing thoubeit.>>108412142I don't think calling me a communist is pathetic. I'm saying you categorizing our conversation as communist is just sad.
>>108412154>categorizing our conversation as communistkek what? I was calling you a commie, not our conversation. The hell do you even mean.
>>108412160you don't know who I am outside of this thread.
>>108412165Why would I need to?
>>108412169jesus, you're so dumb
put this on /x/ I want to see what they say about him and his tweets
>>108412182Retard, you were literally talking about "muh class war" and how any other form of collectivism is bad in this thread. Why would I need to know anything else about you to know you're a commie?
>>108412205did you know that the word "class" exists before communism ever did?
>>108412218Name another ideology that claims class warfare is necessary and that all other forms of collectivism are wrong.
The vast majority of people in general are hylics and don't have anything going on inside.
>>108412236class warfare is inevitable just like the french revolution and others. collectivism is shed in the face of money and not the other way around. reading comprehension lol.
>>108412322You didn't name one.
I think there is an inner self, but the view that there is one true, authentic self or that there are these deep secrets that you have to discover about yourself through psychoanalysis are at least overblown.
>>108391692>What philosophy would you even call this?the end of days
