Violence and war are supremely satisfying. If you haven't trained for war, then killed in battle you won't understand. Homer understood. Violence needs to be celebrated and encouraged to more of an extent than it is currently.

You literally do not need any studies or source material to know what is true. Footnotes are a spook. Philosophy proves this. Most philosophy is just galaxy brains having thought over an issue long enough and intellectually mauled it, then wrote down an expressed version of the truth.

This. I am this guy >>16624176 and I have not been a soldier, but I was a fighter/self-defence instructor for many years. My fellow fight-chads would tell me that they trained so they didn't have to fight. I knew they were lying. Get enough drink in them or me and we will tell you there is nothing at all as satisfying as overwhelming force used to destroy an opponent in a physical way.

And all these movies that show some samurai having honourable combat and talking about the beauty and higher meaning of their crossing swords... all bullshit. Combat is honest and beautiful but not in that way. It is beautiful even when it becomes animalistic and savage. It doesn't need to be justified by some supreme higher cause etc.

My friend is also a veteran of two different conflicts and has told me candidly that he has killed several men and watched them die, and expressed to me that there was no better feeling.

>>16624244

I had a similar feeling like that after I got into a real fight after 3 years of boxing. Mauling somebody else is one of the most satisfying experiences available.

>>16624296
It is hard to express what I mean by the savage part, but maybe you feel it? It is wrapped up in mystery and has to be justified in Hollywood but in real life, it is just like eating a meaty platter of food when you are really hungry, you don't have to wax lyrical about it and justify the Real Meaning Of True Carnivorism™. You want the food, and you devour it, and it feels great. Any vegan lecturing you needs no more response than "I eat meat, this is what I do, and it is good". Did you have a similar experience?

The first half of my adult life was mired in violence. The only ones romanticizing it are resentful frustrated men who have never had their release. Violence is good only in the right quantities. Being overly enthusiastic about violence makes you an easy target and likely to be killed first. Martial arts and sports are a good alternative.

>>16624464
>Being overly enthusiastic about violence makes you an easy target and likely to be killed first
I never said your life has to be all about horrific violence. I agree actually that I am talking about a couple of times a year, having a boxing match or something. This is best for most men.

>The only ones romanticizing it are resentful frustrated men who have never had their release

Good to know you have your head screwed on the right way.

Violence is good in the right quantities. Too much and you're dead. Too little and you become a pussy. Just the right amount, as found in martial arts and sports, and you operate at peak performance.

>>16624586
Yes, I don't think we necessarily disagree. Although I will say, this goes beyond the "safe" violence of combat sports. I also think war can be satisfying. Not necessarily enjoyable, with the sand up the ass crack and the like, but the crescendo of it might be good for the soul. I never fought, but like I said, my best friend is a combat veteran and he divulged to me that killing Jihadis was the greatest pleasure he ever had, so I will take his word for it. Although, in war, it is probably only like that if you win. The guy who lost all his friends and barely made it out might not agree.

Sorry if anything happened to you that went beyond violence to true horror. Hope you get the help you need.

I think the book was the last chapter in his fame desu. He got his following from his protest against pronouns and for the anti-university stuff he did.

>>16624648
I never said otherwise. See >>16624653

The main distinction might be whether you are winning or not. Combat is not great when you suffer a humiliating defeat in front of friends in a drunken brawl. You are king of the world if you paste the other guy though.

But I get what you mean. The grizzly horror of seeing people die senselessly is obviously not the same as you physically overcoming a powerful opponent.

I also thing the more you remove yourself from the actually fight (from fists to a knife, from a knife to a sword, from a sword to a gun, from a gun to artillery etc) then the less you get from winning.

My original post was mostly about the feeling of an actual fight, with your hands and feet. I can only defer to others for warfare.

Exactly for this reason!

Virtue untested is not rightly called.

A man who overcomes a drug addiction has shown more virtue than the man whose abstinence relies on the fact that he never wanted to use the drug in the first place. For it to be considered real virtue, it must struggle against adversity.

To put it another way, a chaste woman in the era of social media, onlyfans and dating apps is significantly more virtuous than a woman who has maintained her chastity due to ugliness or simple lack of any opportunity to lose it.

I can trust a man who has been backed into a corner and forced to discover his own ugliness much more than I could ever trust a man who has never been up against the wall, never gotten his hands dirty.

>He thinks women cannot be happy unless they have children, and so probably shouldn't work
Never said that. He said women's pay is less because they chose to leave the work force for children, and children are a large biological and psychological part of life, and so they need to come to terms with either an inevitable drop in salaries or face missing out on families. This does not suggest that women are biologically destined to breed or that it is all they are good for.

Is your point that they're not right-wing? I can't really tell. Sargon is part of the UKIP, which is the far-right UK party, Yiannopolous wrote a bunch of misogynistic articles, and Molyneaux has ranted about the virtues of a white ethnostate.

>He literally said that women who wear makeup in the workplace are hypocrites for complaining about sexual harassment.
no, he said the act of wearing makeup is a sexually motivated behavior, and not banned in the workplace, as an example of how you can't simply "ban all things sexual" in the workplace. The idea being we haven't yet figured out how to integrate people, who are inherently sexual, into the workplace and therefore we have the problems sex brings.

Half the problem with Peterson is he doesn't get to discuss the worth of his ideas because there's always some moron trying to prove he's a sexist nazi and you have to wade through that moronic slop before you can even asses the concepts in their own right.

One day everything that can go wrong WILL go wrong in your life.

For an instant you will be trapped in something from which you cannot escape, your final instant will be of terror, pain or confussion.

Depends on the war. Fighting insurgents in Iraq is much more of a practice in logistics and coordination than it is application of direct violence.

As someone who's experienced and partook in white trash tier violence I can say that while it does feel amazing to be a winner, once the party is over you can never really recover and rejoin society. There will always be a barrier between you and other people, and I'm not sure that gap can ever be bridged again.

don't know what precisely you mean here, but I assuming you mean when the violence gets to some high scale and it transforms into something awful.

I originally was talking about fighting violence, not necessarily warfare. Anything I have mentioned in posts about warfare has been from friends and their opinions from when they served.

>>16630389
I mean it was violence that circled around getting into pointless fights, threatening people, and stealing shit. Also there's no violence that doesn't have the potential to turn tragic and life destroying. Violence in the ring is more controlled but the risks of catastrophic failure is still there.

I agree that people should not forget that they're inherently violent, and that there's a healthy amount of violence. However to speak of it is to glorify it, and it's not cool to glorify violence.

I certainly wouldn't do that. As mentioned above, I am very anti-romantic about violence. It is just a part of you, indulging in it is as shameless as a hungry man wolfing down good food.

>>16624129
The secret to esoteric realization and transcendence while living in society and while engaging in sexual activity is to have sex frequently with a GF/wife but to just withhold ejaculation and let your penis subside each time. Eventually your Qi energy begins to radiate up and down your spine and your dopamine receptors reset and you come alive and are filled with boundless energy and fulfillment

>>16630493
What desire is there to indulge? Can you even describe it? And if you can describe it, who are you to say whether or not it's shameless? Every man loves to jerk their dick, and most with sense know there's a time and a place to do it, but it's still shameful to spend all of one's freetime slobbering and pumping one's dick.

An inconclusive discussion can in itself be a positive truth.

The distinction between being and happening is purely semantic.

Everything that happens, happens somewhere. When no range is specified, everything can truthfully be said to happen. We rarely do it explicitly, leading to misunderstanding.

Truth is objective, but always conditional.

What is will always have been. Meet death with this in mind. Each action has permanent results irrespective of causality. But so do its causal results, so never ignore them.

In each specifiable range, I prefer things to exist rather than not existing. I ought to act consistently.

Self-consistency is the only universal virtue.

The manner in which we communicate is shaped by obsolete technology. We could do away with rhetoric in politics, but it is kept there by individual interests. We could skip verbose prose, but a book must warrant a sale. We could structure our visual media more efficiently, but are used to mimicking the spoken word with the limitations of the printing press and paper on top.

I am currently taking a shit.

>first religion of true morality
Zoroastrianism was earlier. "good thought, good speech, good deed".

>only one God, from whom all things originate from
Atenism was earlier.

All cognition surrounding God is inevitably incoherent and paradoxical, which is exactly why God must exist.

>t. retard who thinks sheol means there's no afterlife
Read chapter 18 of Isaac Troki's book, which proves the Tanakh does in fact talk about the afterlife.

Judaism was founded at Mount Sinai when God spoke to the entire nation of Israel, around 14th century BCE.
Abraham didn't invent Monotheism, he rediscovered it. Other righteous people at his time also believed in Monotheism but they were the small minority, who did not succumb to Paganism

>Zoroaster predates judaism!
Nope. Zoroaster was hundreds of years after the First Temple destruction, specifically right after Persian conquest of Babylon.

>durr Atenism was first monotheism!
The cult of the Aten was 100 years after the Exodus. And the cult of Aten wasn't "Monotheist" at all. It was Henotheism and Monolatry

They were Henotheistic, and not in a similar way to the Zoroastrians.

>Believes in the academic memes

The shape of the legs is humanoid, so it is a person in a suit, and the size of this "cat" in this GIF is manipulated by a video editing program.

lmao, I bet you believe in Tesla energy and bigfoot and all kinds of wacky shit.

Cats exist. Dancing exists. Occam's razor dictates that the simplest explanation is that the cat learned to dance.
