I view this as a socio-psychological phenomenon akin to the bullied, ignored, and/or mistreated kid shooting up a school. Everyone goes, “This is so awful, how could this have happened?” Anyone who suggests that the casual cruelty of NPC-society helped lead to this, will make people uncomfortable, as it hints as a dark truth — it’s the casual evil of society, the evil in automatically excluding, despising, being embarrassed for, and/or making fun of those different from them, that creates this type of sociopathy. The sociopathic radicalization and fury of the minority of the members of society who turn violent like Kacyznski did, comes from the casual endless repeated sociopathy of the majority of “nice” and “well-adjusted” society. In the phenomenon of Islamic jihadi terrorism, we see the United States’s own horrific bombing and glassing to bits of Middle Eastern countries, ironically helping create more of the enemy they’re fighting against, and all this as a demonic pretext for invading the Middle East for oil, for instance. The evil of al-Qaeda and ISIS members who turn violent is apparent, but texts and speeches of theirs about America being the great Satan pushing their McDonalds/military-industrial-complex-cult onto the planet are surprisingly sympathetic and speak to some deep core in oneself, since most citizens who are “well-adjusted” members and worshipers of this same McDonalds/military-industrial-complex-cult of the West (banality and consumerism being combined with great evil and strength) are too much a PART of it to be able to criticize and condemn it as objectively as outsiders and victims to it can.

In this picture, we see a tragicomic representation of it, with Pepe the Frog (deemed a hate symbol by the ADL — an organization which devotes all its time and energies to making sure people won’t criticize demonic, uber-wealthy, privileged globalist bankers like George Soros and the Rothschilds in ways deemed “antisemitic”, as well as fighting against White nationalism, while casually supporting Jewish ethno-nationalism overlooking the constant war crimes against Palestinians that Israel commits), representing the Everyman/underdog (you) who browsed 4channel, holding a gun to the head of the “normie” Wojak (a nice well-adjusted citizen — oversocialized, in the phraseology of Kaczynski — (them) as opposed to (you)), who is crying at the apparent injustice that he, a nice well-adjusted normie, is being held hostage by Pepe the frog, who, again, represents a hate symbol according to the ADL.

hegel nerds answer this:

what does hegel think of the principle of sufficient reason? what in his system makes the rational necessary as to be a limit on reality? why can't the irrational be? what is the reason the absolute is the way that it is instead of any other way, even an incomprehensible other way? where can he ground the absolute if he says the ground needs to be external to be sufficient and there is nothing external to the absolute?

>I think you're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. And the purest. I'm not asking you to fuck. But maybe some day I'll earn the right to ask you for something more permanent." He turned and facing her was harder than facing thirty Highlanders.

>The sheer scope

Can we have ONE thread about religion without the butterfly faggot shitting it up? He never even posts anything of value or intelligence. Its just:
>God isn't real because religion is stupid lol!
>God isn't real because people who believe in God are mean to me!
He hasn't made ONE legitimate argument, its basically r/atheism and youtube comment level arguments. We get it, fag, you hate religion.
