DOPE!, yes!, i think by acting with total confidence you will gaslight everyone else into thinking what you're doing is the right thing. i think this applies to almost everything. the illusion *can't* fail as long as you have confidence, manbearpig *can't* get you as long as you're in the circle. go big or go home friend

>or become a character on the local bar scene
>You either slowly kill yourself off through chemical abuse or just off yourself some christmas day when the bars are all either closed or empty, no one will notice until the smell bothers the neighbors enough to get them to call the police.

some people think of poltards as just a "spilling out" from containment boards and that they should stay where they belong (similar to how they think of niggers). in reality they are the long lips of a glass preventing cross-contamination, the "nigger" if you will.

>The Christian idea as well.
and this is the part that i like, and why i'm always glad to have these conversations. i have Thoughts about this, which are part of my own notes on Zen Acceleration (>>12056843). to *accelerate things to their point of non-distinction* is a roundabout form of Derridean de-construction, and the irony of this is not lost on me, because Derrida is the guy who has caused me more grief than anyone, in a way. i knew there was something deeply fucked about deconstruction back when and it has taken me this long to figure out why that it is so. having done so, i now find myself...sounding weirdly like Derrida. and this indeed warrants the pelting of me with vegetables. there's no question.
>Let each generation figure it out on their own. That's fine with me.
aye.
>I am not an enemy of idpol - transcending it is the goal, not fighting it. Preference for similarity will remain, preference for differentiation will also remain.
so we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
>I prefer this to both of those, but maybe we'll dream up something even better.
beats the setting for Crispy Bacon, which is where i live.
>and when you're not in doubt, you should be in doubt, and when you are doubting, have faith.
absolute truth.
>Trump is playing his role on the stage, and he's done a masterful job of it.
two years and it feels like eight. proof positive that it is in fact possible to have too much of a good thing, and we should all be careful what we wish for.
>but where's the fun in that? ;)
Fun is what the Wild Ride is all about. it is More Fun Than You Can Handle, by axiomatic definition. it always has an extra gear to which you *cannot* go without unironic sanity loss and decompression. them's the Black Holes. i am, sadly, about Limited Fun now. i wasn't always this way. i am now. for better or for worse. and trying not to be a CTRLr about it.
>Words are a tool that shapes the self and others. Can you withstand being shaped? Do you care to? Space Taoism, co-creation, etc.
preach it
>you could replace that with *every political experiment needs scapegoats,* but you already knew that. What's the answer? Christianity, Kingdom of Heaven, etc etc
*whatever.* so long as it re-introduces The Mystery. a little *skepticism* and a little *doubt* is the mortar upon which the bricks depend. a little enlightened, and shared, bewilderment. dem aporias. and the Way. for some, that is the meaning of the Kingdom, i suppose...i'm not really sure. it's best to leave off at the limits of understanding on those things.
>One learns how to be a Hero by watching the others try and fail.
this. it's how /kino/ works. *why do we love watching tragic suffering on screen and stage?* that's a real mystery. why is it that we can't watch Things Were Going Good...And Then They Got Better!
>I was saying nothing and everything.
okay.

i'm memeing this one also, for mysterious reasons. it's too good. it's too fucking good.
