You should read Kierkegaard and Zhuangzi. Then you will know that life-affirmation and life-rejection are different sides of the same cope.

He’s right. Nine times out of ten people want the contrary of life affirmation. The place is full of depressing losers who want to either push people or themselves into suicide, for kicks. Fuck off newfag

Funny that you mention it. Life-rejecting fags actually realise that. See Zapffe.

Daily reminder to read 'Suicide Note' by Mitchell Heisman and share it with as many people as you can. It is the best explanation of the Jewish problem ever written.

Here's the link to the text:
https://legacy.gscdn.nl/archives/images/suicide_note.pdf
(Read pp. 32 - 625)

TL;DR: https://www.scribd.com/document/198985140/Mitchell-Heisman-s-suicide-note-overview

Alternatively you can listen to it while gaming: https://youtu.be/BiMZi5P7WJA

Part 2:

TL;DR: Jews want to transcend biology so that AI can enslave humanity.
