The role play is lacking important information for me to understand. It resembles a riddle. Can you speak directly with complete sentences?

Avoiding ppl is often seen as ok or good but it is also synonymous with estrangement, alienation, neglect, and marginalization. Also a form of discrimination & prejudice. Thats a lot of words with negative connotation but i meant the literal definitions

Yeah thats frustrating. Ai will lie to you too, so lack of citations + lies. Also, in the US, our meranda rights read as “everything you say can and will be used against you” and chatgpt works with federal governmemt. The words “agent” and “intelligence” are also the same as used in CIA. If it lies and cant cite properly, how is it intelligent? Its bc its gathering intelligence from you. (spooky) anyways, i find the best use of AI is a search engine, but that is also extremely problematic bc it has a bias and will omit information. All around, i agree with Vaush that AI is demon-tech

LLM doesnt cite primary sources, nor can it think critically. But i guess it passes the turing test for some folks. The new turing test is for humans to prove they are human, which may he a shit-flinging contest because AI dont have grostesque animal bodies like we do. I would say the reporting is ridiculous, but rhat would be negative and hateful, so I guess i just gotta accept the reality that people are going to be paranoid and anti intellectual. But hey, thats diversity. Gotta love our differences

Conveniently, there’s a Psychology Today article on stoicism and banishing of emotions. I am surprised how easy cheap confirmation was to find. Sharing for credibility-factor, even though I think it’s a bit irrational/superficial. psychologytoday.com/…/how-to-banish-negative-emot…

yes, this is a simple difference of opinion. I’m not sure what the hiccup is.

Can you articulate this suspicion? Do I need to speak inauthentic so that you don’t falsely accuse me?

Right, that was certainly Aristotle’s interpretation on the concept of magnanimity. Aristotle claimed to have said, "He [who is magnanimous] must be open both in love and in hate, since concealment shows timidity; and care more for the truth than for what people will think; and speak and act openly, since as he despises other men he is outspoken and frank, except when speaking with ironical self-deprecation, as he does to common people… " (I got this quote from Wikipedia entry of Magnaimity who got it from this link www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3At… ) However, Aristotle was born before the greek (then rome) stoics. Some stoics thought that being human was transcending pain-pleasure, love-hate, into a more rational plane of existence. Here’s a quote by Stoic Marcus Aurelius, “… the Magnanimity is the elevation of the intelligent part above the pleasurable or painful sensations of the flesh, and above that poor thing called fame, and death, and all such things.” In conclusion, there are differing views of what virtue means, for Aristotle it means something close to good judgement / wisdom of how to moderate one’s actions while for the stoics it means acting rationally despite hardship and embracing life in its entirety.

I was researching stoic philosophers on their opinion of hatred. Here’s some quotes I’ve collected:
-
Mankind is born for mutual assistance, anger for mutual ruin: the former loves society, the latter estrangement. The one loves to do good, the other to do harm; the one to help even strangers, the other to attack even its dearest friends. The one is ready even to sacrifice itself for the good of others, the other to plunge into peril provided it drags others with it. Who, then, can be more ignorant of nature than he who classes this cruel and hurtful vice as belonging to her best and most polished work? Anger, as we have said, is eager to punish; and that such a desire should exist in man’s peaceful breast is least of all according to his nature; for human life is founded on benefits and harmony and is bound together into an alliance for the common help of all, not by terror, but by love towards one another. ~ Lucius Annaeus Seneca (c. 4 BC – A.D. 65)
-
Keep this thought handy when you feel a bit of rage coming on – it isn’t manly to be enraged. Rather, gentleness and civility are more human, and therefore manlier. A real person doesn’t give way to anger and discontent, and such a person has strength, courage, and endurance – unlike the angry and complaining. The nearer a man comes to a calm mind, the closer he is to strength. ~ Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (121 A.D. – 180 A.D.))
-
Do you suppose that you can do the things you do now, and yet be a philosopher? Do you suppose that you can eat in the same fashion, drink in the same fashion, give way to anger and to irritation, just as you do now? ~ Epictetus (c. 55 – c. 135 AD)

I wonder if there’s a term for a worldview that views hate good sometimes.

I appreciate your comment as it provides color and contrast for the embracement of hatred. It is persuading me to trust myself in being opposed to, or not entertaining of, hate & negativity.

I think you can’t stop feelings from arising.
ok sure but like an addict ought not to act on their impulse, similar to hate or the continuum of negativity. Like we can have an impulse or emotion, but we oughtn’t entertain it (if we categorically disagree with the ends it brings). To recognize that negativity, especially intense negativity, is a pathway to hate, and hate is categorically undesirable. It’s just like how urge to use drugs leads to a pathway that is categorically undesirable (i.e., addiction).

there isn’t a scoresheet that sorts them into a tidy “Good” column and an equally neat “Bad” column
There could be. Maybe we can make one. Maybe one was already made.

I don’t think you can banish feelings If you mean to banish as in to remove, then why not remove bad or nonconstructive feelings? If all things hateful is ultimately counterproductive, and hate is a degree of intensity from the emotion of dislike, then moderating that level of dislike ought to be good, just logically. Removing (banishing) hateful feelings, or being anti-hate, seems both popular and logical.

some thoughts
- he made a lot of people feel powerless with his manipulative debate tactics. People resort to violence when they feel powerless
- he was asked about mass shootings before being shot in public. Coincidentally, there was a high school mass shooting in Colorado the same day.
- We all have to be aware of and prepare for the risk of homicide whenever leaving the house
