>Only life in such a tense atmosphere, only a life which is based on constant awareness of the sacrifices* to which it owes its existence, and of the necessity, the duty of sacrifice of life and all worldly goods, is truly human: the sublime is unknown to the open society." The societies of the West which claim to aspire toward the open society, actually are closed societies in a state of disintegration: their moral value, their respectability, depends entirely on their still being closed societies.

>>You a dumb pussy nigga, nationalism is about being part of something much bigger than yourself and being proud of where you're from.
yeah this is what liberals claim, you know the liberals who created nations

Because I grew out of reading children's fiction a long time ago.

Are you implying biology is not cultural? It's already a well-known fact that there's no thing as nature, that any 'real' nature would be inseparable from the idea of nature, so what changes when we call it biology?

The Ego and His Own

Everything will be fun and nothing will be sacred.

It's a spook.
The individual doesn't benefit from blindly following it.

You've been spooked my friend

What she's actually saying is

>"now that even my grandma call herself a feminist I don't find it cool or rebellious anymore. what other edgy ideology can I attach myself to and constantly shove in other people's faces?"

>theft is always wrong
Suddenly got ghostly as fuck in here.

>only one person is better off after theft
This implies I have a moral duty to others, and we were arguing over "moral duty" to begin with. You're just hoping I agree with a more well codified deontological ethic ("don't hurt others") than "don't steal."

I look forward to reading your axiomatic proof of theft's general immorality.

>capitalism is when people are free to own property

It's difficult to conceive of a statement more ignorant of the foundations of capitalism and the state.

See how "free" you are to own "property" when the Canadian government finds oil under "your" land, or when the US government decides you have an "oligopoly" or "monopoly."

>"I want to grab somebody on the street by the shoulders and say 'what do you believe.'"
>"there has to be another paradigm shift, or another large historically significant dialectic like the french revolution."
>We can't go on in this way where the focus has been shifted from man and God to the world man created.
>being this haunted

I wouldn't like to run into you in a dark alley, you might think I'm a "worker bee."

>a stoic keeps going through mental gymnastics to say he can do literally anything but he's totally still a stoic

Some "moral principal" you got son

>wants to know if spooks are bad
>while himself being spooked

That's like asking if murder (wrongful killing) is wrongful. You're tautologically question begging. No one here is going to justify your beloved one for you, you'll do that plenty well on your own

The "literary" equivalent of an MS paint comic, written by either a self hating German or a fourth generation Auschwitz survivor, probably the former.

Nationalism serves my own interests for the time being, hence I allow it to exist. I commit to nationalism out of egoism and not some higher ideal. If it should go against my interests, I shall rid myself of it.
