Why doesn't might make right?

It does. People who disagree tend to be the same faggots that think there's such a thing as "unnatural" behaviour.

Doesn't that ever get boring? Nothing wrong with switching positions every once and a while.

Because those who use might to gain the advantage never feel safe or satisfied. In essence they have failed to achieve their actual objective.

>> No.5299065

The only people who don't believe "might makes right" are professional philosophers because they are generally weak, puny individuals that can hardly stand upright and because they would lose their job if "might made right."

>>5299065
This is true. Many philosophers I have met a onanists whose essence is lacking. This is very accurate.

Might makes whatever it wants. It's not inherently right or wrong. It's just advisable to not use your might against others wellbeing, or the mighty will be beat down by the next mightiest.
Life as competition is stupid. Play your sports and compete at friendly games, fine, but when people start dying because of these alpha contests, you've got a broken system

You do realise that every breath and every bite you take is depriving someone else? That your whole life is lived at the expense of the less fortunate? If life as a competition is stupid, then life itself is stupid. All life feeds on other life, all life fights other life, everyone perpetually competes.

In most philosophical contexts "might" doesn't mean "individual physical strength"

No shit Sherlock, no one is saying resources are infinite. It doesn't mean you have to be jerk to eat though. Those starving kids in Africa aren't starving because we took their lunch money.

Trees breath the air back into the eco system, but I get what you're saying. I was of course referring to the needless violence and hardships of our barbaric past and present. That nature makes it forgivable for me on some level. I still think we can do better. All this talk of "patricians" well I have my own ideas about it

>> No.5299214

>>5299155
It does mean you have to be a jerk to eat, but you don't realise it because you have outsourced being a jerk to professionals. It's easy to be a pacifist when your government conveniently does the violence for you.
