Why do you people love Buddhism so much? Are you all Orientalists?

[Anonymous No.5715360]

It's the best philosophy

[Anonymous No.5715380]

Why do you people like Christianity so much: Are you middle eastern?

[Anonymous No.5715494]

Buddhism is retarded and contradictory by nature. If you like Buddhism you've never read western Philosophy.

[Anonymous No.5715499]

>Why do you people love Buddhism so much?
because those people are fearful slaves who wish for death

>you people
what a shitty, baseless accusation. as far as i am am concerned, buddhism is a very friendly deathcult, but a deathcult nonetheless.
>Are you all Orientalists?
what a shitty, retarded misapplication of a concept that doesn't explain anything anyway.

Buddhism is easily misinterpreted by plebs who are looking for salvation. People who suddenly 'become buddhists' are usually people who just went through some mildly traumatic shit, usually break ups. They're are also usually narcissistic and egocentric, and after they read buddhist stuff they proceed being narcissistic and egocentric but with a small dose of fake empathy (which they'll never stop announcing to everyone) and pseudo zen bullshit ("oh man jus chill nothing really matters, wait did you just say my clothes look stupid?"). You prob know one of these people, they're annoying as fuck. (And yes I'm prob projecting, but at the same time I do know a lot of people like this).

You must be new here. Most here dislike Eastern philosophy. Just scroll the first couple pages and the majority is about Western Philosophers.

There are almost daily threads here talking about how Buddhism is superior to anything the West has ever produced.

[Anonymous No.5715922]

You're a funny guy op.

Buddhist threads usually don't deviate away from discussion about the philosophy and there aren't very few shitstorms that arise unlike Christian or Muslim threads. Just goes to show you.

It always makes me smile when I see how composed people are in Buddhist threads. Its like a little break from all the whining and shitposting.

I don't care about the discussion, I care about the people having it. They're the ones I'm calling out.

[Anonymous No.5718140]

Hipsters that think Christianity is too mainstream

[Anonymous No.5718682]

>>5718140
Christianity is too mainstream though. And contradicts many things we know from science and observation, so there's that.

[Anonymous No.5718707]

It has very gentle and relatively comforting ideas about the usual existential issues.

So if you know about the true intentions of buddhism, care to elucidate?

[Anonymous No.5718757]

>>5717542
So you're calling out the philosophy and the people dicussing it on /lit/ because of what some people you've met IRL are like?

[Anonymous No.5718802]

>>5718682
Kek, but its okay when Buddhism does it because "its just a metaphor".
