>>24120897>being emotional is badgood good my little android, very stoic you are
>>24121521>Being a hysterical woman is good, actuallykek
>>24120672Why are you parading this absolute cuck.
>>24120880>>24121521>>24121764Both of you are retarded. This has little to do with Stoicism and is a complete misinterpretation of how stoics viewed emotions. They never advocated for the repression of emotions.
>>24121821Bingo. This is a garbage thread. Stoics always said it aint what you do its the way that you do it. Its about how we understand and interpret emotions, not about how to repress them.
>>24120668Weak, pathetic, cowardly midwits need a framework to handle existing in the world as much as anyone else.
