Whoever talks seriously about “racial politics” and not at least “cultural politics” is already lost, has never interacted with people deeply outside of their same tribe (because then he’d see how any important differences are not racial and genetic but learned, ideological and sociocultural) and probably gets all his “information” regarding the narratives and metanarratives from propaganda feeds. 🤷

I’m one of God’s weak soldiers and I relate, lol. This is why it’s important to be empathetic and have a softer approach to people as much as we can afford it!

“God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers?”
Honestly, expected. The Western painfully empty God-hole needs to be filled and hedonism and consumerism can only go so far. 🤷

Bad times create strong men, when they’re wise and rightly guided, else they just traumatize people. Strong men create good times, if you define strong as virtuous and not just “physically imposing” or even just emotionally resilient. Good times create weak men, when “good” is defined as “hedonistic, consumeristic and with no ethical expectations”. And weak (morally wormy, stupid, etc) men do create bad times. 🤷

Some people are more reckless and others more fearful. Both can be productive, but it’s wiser (as it usually is), to pull yourself towards the middle.

You don’t get banned for words in most boards (all?, I haven’t been there in a decade), but you can’t post CP (and maybe high level gore, again, I don’t recall much) and definitely can’t post anything NSFW in blue boards. For me, that’s enough, as I can deal with words.

Sure, and getting some comfortable sleep at night knowing you were a net positive to your community at the very least with words (which are cheaper than actions too!) should be the main thing you get out of it. 😅

You’re probably right about that.

The coward’s way: don’t explain why you did what you did clearly, just obfuscate/point towards some “guideline”. 🙄

I feel like it is to a certain degree, to discourage trigger-happy voting behaviour that pushes the masses one way or another… this dude is just a clown.

Agreed.

You can be on topic and have the wrong take, so wrong that people simply think it’s not productive to the conversation and as such the downvote is warranted. What are you doing, my guy?

IMO, it enforces some sort of accountability to people’s voting behaviour. Some of the online forums I frequent have it by default and I’ve never had any problems with it, as I can back my downvotes with arguments if I’m asked to. 🤷
Having said that (and without knowing anything more about the situation): what a weird and most likely pathetic thing to do by that dude.

I don’t understand what this is supposed to mean. I do know Mr. Kirk won’t be seen kindly by God, though. His misused his free will to become an agent of chaos and a proud troublemaker, after all. 🤷

I feel like there’s a middle ground between being completely unpleasant/making no effort not to be unpleasant (which comes naturally to most properly socialized and not antisocial folks, tbh) and being a doormat, right?

Clueless and amoral Ashkenazi/European “Jews” support the genocidal ethnostate their forefathers fought so hard to build and their descendants are currently murdering innocents to maintain? Woah!
- Comment on Marriage is FOMO 6 days ago:
It was always just supposed to be a public declaration of partnership and commitment (made with the intention of fulfilling our biological imperative, ofc… remember that reliable, safe and not disgusting methods of birth control weren’t widely available until the late 19th century), not too dissimilar to posting your relationship status on Facebook, just with more weight behind it, lol. And, unless you live in some weird, selectively legally misandrist country that “punishes” men unfairly in divorce (the manosphere talks a lot about it, I assume there’s at least a modicum of truth to it), it still kinda is just that, right? And, evidently, suddenly waking up sometime in your late 20s to 30s and realizing the optics around your singlehood aren’t too positive is one of the worst reasons to hurry into marriage! 😅

I’m a user in an online space in a time when we’re constantly invaded by nefarious agents of chaos and their bots, hence the concern. I thought that was clear so I didn’t feel like writing it down… but, fair enough, quacky, you’ve convinced me so I’ll stop the questioning. And I’m sorry for any inconvenience I caused you. 👋

Are you running many of your replies through LLMs and just posting the output here? Is that the reason behind the bizarre phrasing of some of your posts and weird non-sequiturs? 🤔

There’s negativity and there’s “never taking accountability for one’s actions and disliking being constantly called out on it which inevitably comes before a schism”. But nobody can tolerate a consistent partypooper, ofc.

Relativists can’t stand for anything. It’s wise to be “somewhere in the middle”, as black and white thinking is rarely accurate (or productive), but even for that attitude there are exceptions. Discernment is needed.

There are things one has to be/will be vehemently opposed to and morally disgusted by, or “hate”, if you believe in virtue (or simply stand by anything). 🤷
