Dear Women,I don't resent you anymore. You don't have to be disgusting, you don't have to degrade yourselves, you don't have to be slaves. Honestly, go read some Plato and learn how to be free and feel good about yourself and life and how pursuing healthy things makes you better off every day. You know a lot of spiritual and mental Charlie horses you feel every day could be cured by just reading some people with good intentions towards you and everyone else. Yeah, it's hard to tell which men really like you and which want to take advantage of you, but I can tell you with full sincerity that Plato among a small enclave of thinkers really does want the best for you and knows how to help. He can help you probably much better than I could. Anon>Last Thread:>>82877401>Song of the Day:>Haiku of the Night:provided upon request.
>>82887257how does reading plato help us? i feel like theres not much in his writings that could benefit metho i feel that way about all philosophers, because i think as humans we should come to our own conclusions and make our own beliefs rather than reading the thoughts of others and following their beliefsunfortunately most people cannot form their own opinions or come to their own conclusions on humanity and life without the sway of others also i feel as if most people dont really have the brain to read philosophy in the first place
>>82887343> i feel like theres not much in his writings that could benefit meWell the only way to be sure is to read it.>i think as humans we should come to our own conclusions and make our own beliefs rather than reading the thoughts of others and following their beliefsSo does Plato.>unfortunately most people cannot form their own opinions Perhaps you could if you engaged with ideas and people more. >most people dont really have the brain to read philosophyPerhaps, perhaps not. Whether you think you do is up to you. But if you decide that you can't or won't then you've placed yourself in a box and are not really free to read, and have enslaved yourself.
>>82887257Requesting a haiku and a song please
>>82887451i already have my own opinions, which is why i think reading others is pointless. i have read a little and know a little, not plato, but i just dont care enough to read others thoughts on subjects i already have my own opinions on
>>82887514>i already have my own opinions, But do you have good ones?>which is why i think reading others is pointlessIf you've never challenged the ideas you've held, then you've never formed your own opinions, and you've been thoughtlessly accepting them from sources elsewhere without acknowledging it. Forming your own opinions only happens when you understand several and slect the best one from the crop that you have, but you sound spiritually poor and depleted and with only the ideas handed to you by a master you are afraid to acknowledge. You are enslaved and beat upon never to listen to others and to experience what good they have to share with you, and never to have ideas which are actually good, only to have the counterfeit ones which break upon you and leave you anxious and confused and in pains all the time. You are today a pauper, but you have all the means you wish to enrich yourself. >>82887493I use this one a fair bit lately, but I really do like it a lot:https://youtu.be/fakPYtFzQPY?si=CglmQnWjt3C2ZbNYFind chance in your soulevolve and grow and flourishand fly higher still.
>>82887493And a second one for you, since you have asked for it.Rationality,can only take you so far:you can be still more
>>82887579>but do you have good ones?good opinions are entirely subjective and it ultimately depends on who you are talking to. also, most people will consider their own opinions "good", so theres no point asking a question like this. in my own heart, my opinions are good, and thats all that really mattersi have challenged my ideas, but i do it with people who are actually alive and i can have a proper conversation with, rather than reading dead mens opinions that are already set in stone
>>82887661>good opinions are entirely subjectiveSee you didn't actually form that opinion yourself, you received it somewhere. And you've never actually challenged it nor made an effort to decide it for yourself. >most people will consider their own opinions "good", so theres no point asking a question like this.This is incorrect, it's a woefully incomplete line of thought. You sound like you have cavities in your teeth and are bickering with a dentist. You're being lazy, a slave to your solipsistic ego, and you're afraid to confront your real motivation for not reading. If you can't be bothered to read Plato, then you can't be bothered to be taken seriously by me. I will only ever consider you sick and defective and incapable. I won't abuse you for it, but I also won't respect you because of it. That is simply how it is. Please do go somewhere else. Come back when you've read a little, or don't.
women are awful, and I don't reject anyone who says they are not worth the trouble of helping. But perhaps they are, even if every conversation with them always proves to the contrary
resenting women is morally valid and the most rational position a man could have. There is no reason women should be treated with anything less than contempt. It feels like an abuse of the many men who have been wronged for which no women are making an effort to repay.

>>82887661You should read max stirner, specifically the ego and his own. I think you would actually like it.
>>82887257I love you anon ^^ >You have been muted for 4 seconds, because your comment was not original.
>>82889187lol stupid nigga you're gonna get warned for that reply. suggest you delete it
>>82888976I am honestly not well versed in the Gnostic religion besides the broader points. I'm not avoiding it, there's just honestly a lot for me to read and re-read. I feel like a lot of the really good literature I read, I keep reading incompletely, and it is making me take a lot of time just going back and reading things i've already read over again, just to understand them once. I still have a huge catalogue of of the presocratics to read and then theological writings, deists, existentialists and enlightenment etc. i'm just nowhere close to. I feel like I have an understanding of them equal to some witless freshmen undergraduate. Similarly with mathematics I have to go review and reread them all now that I have a better appreciation of mathematical knowledge outside of their function to print me money at work. I feel like I basically have to start my boyhood education all over again from scratch. Perhaps I'll try to move it further up in the queue.>>82889187>I love you anon ^^Well, that can mean a lot of things. We are not yet acquainted, but I hope you mean it in a sense that is healthy for your sake. Peace and tranquility to you friend.
