"To be a fate is the loneliness of all great minds".

Who are your literary heroes, anon? The ones whom you consider geniuses? I’m guessing most of them were loners

Essentially, there is indeed a select few with minds of the quality required to tread water or survive the effects of antisocial personality disorder. He has discounted the majority of great minds, who are not among the likes of the antisocial.

Schopie was so fucking brilliant, but he was way too intellectual. I unironically believe when he had a wife and some kids his philosophy would be better and he wouldn't be too fond of the life-denying east asia shit and only his based western thought would remain.

He actually has a valid reasoning for this quote fully consistent with his philosophical system. But that gets lost when you lift Instagram pictures made by Pajeet for a like farm to post on Malaysian pétanque forums

Also, Chad who fucks a different blonde cheerleader every night isn't going to spend his life engaged with philosophy, because he's too busy fucking a different cheerleader every night. The only exception would be a guy like Casanova who considered himself a philosopher but it's not like history remembers him for his philosophy, which wasn't original anyway

Asocial != antisocial

Not being a brainlet is a curse. Brainlets are always happier. The most genial contributions to mankind are worthless, if they do not actively harm creation and destroy beauty and humanity, and then death and time destroy you and every trace of you. Brainlets do not even think about this.

He was also chronically depressed and wrote constantly about how his entire life he felt like he didn't belong in this world, plus he was an alcoholic
