"artfucker1996" does have a good point in a way, but i find myself infuriated by the way (s)he says it. its the kind of post-millenial smugness that propagates in our society and will lead to our destruction, because what it destroys is the poetic, the metaphor, the non-literal.

This actually completely misrepresents Atlus Shrugged, the male character in that novel Reardon gives all sorts of money to his retarded liberal family and doesn't even care about it, he loves Steel and Competition not money - "capitalism" is a term marx used to reduce the totality of western endeavor down to the single element of money, which is nowhere near a full picture of the philosophy Ayn Rand was trying to develope.

If this isn't just a joke then the guy is seriously misinterpreting the meaning of the book.

That 2nd row-left one is cool, because the utilitarian-humane thing to do is have the trolleys run into each other, thus saving the people on the ends of the tracks. But the goal of each switch-flipper and the choice they make to reach that goal, depends on the choice of the other switch-flipper as well. Suppose the main track guy at his last decides to face death with courage, and he does not switch the westbound track. Now, the off track guy may be only choosing to save himself, but the best scenario is still reached. However, if the off track guy too wishes to have his life end in martyrdom and switches the eastbound track, then literally everyone dies. So in this circumstance the world needs both a martyr and a coward. If it's two cowards or two martyrs, then everyone dies, but if its someone who sacrifices himself and someone who accepts his sacrifice, then disaster is averted.

The patient means he wants his teeth white again, because that's what a dentist will normally help you with. But the dentist interprets it as a fashion question, and suggests a brown tie because the color will go well with the yellow teeth. This is absurd because yellow teeth are always unattractive and the patient was clearly asking for advice on how to make his teeth white again.

Well that's the thing isn't it?

If humans have no transcendental value, then the only thing of real value is pain and pleasure.

The only thing that can place value on a person's birth is some value is some idea that is beyond pleasure, something that you won't necessarily get pleasure from.

You have to say something, like God, is outside of our consciousness and can evaluate the quality of that consciousness, and that this evaluation is more important than pleasure.

Even if there was no God, good things would still feel really good. There is self evident value, whereas the existence of God is not self evident.

Soc. Would you choose, Protarchus, to live all your life long in the enjoyment of the greatest pleasures?

Pro. Certainly I should.

Soc. Would you consider that there was still anything wanting to you if you had perfect pleasure?

Pro. Certainly not.

Soc. Reflect; would you not want wisdom and intelligence and forethought, and similar qualities? would you not at any rate want sight?

Pro. Why should I? Having pleasure I should have all things.

Soc. Living thus, you would always throughout your life enjoy the greatest pleasures?

Pro. I should.

Soc. But if you had neither mind, nor memory, nor knowledge, nor true opinion, you would in the first place be utterly ignorant of whether you were pleased or not, because you would be entirely devoid of intelligence.

Pro. Certainly.

Soc. And similarly, if you had no memory you would not recollect that you had ever been pleased, nor would the slightest recollection of the pleasure which you feel at any moment remain with you; and if you had no true opinion you would not think that you were pleased when you were; and if you had no power of calculation you would not be able to calculate on future pleasure, and your life would be the life, not of a man, but of an oyster or pulmo marinus. Could this be otherwise?

Pro. No.

Soc. But is such a life eligible?

Pro. I cannot answer you, Socrates; the argument has taken away from me the power of speech.

In this case, don't you have to apply a transcendent value to memory?

If you are feeling pleasure (and that is the premise of this argument) then you are not feeling displeasure from the fact you can't remember anything.

Whether you can remember anything, whether you are smart enough to calculate the pleasure in the future, none of this makes you the LEAST bit displeased. Why? Because the whole premise was that you are feeling pleasure.

Memory doesn't matter. Intelligence doesn't matter. It doesn't make you any less happy, so therefore you must invent a value outside of pleasure, that matters for a reason that will give you a benefit other than pleasure.

and to justify that that benefit is more important than pleasure, you need God.

Art Ain’t free. The tree of canon and literature gotta be litterd with the blood of the school of resentment. Thomas Stearns Eliot aka “T. S” is not my poet. he is anti Semitic and probbaly post-christian as well :DD. HART CRANE and shakespeare not rowling and KING ok. praise gnosis.

Uh, does anyone know where this happened? The girls he's describing sounds exactly like someone I used to know, who I'm pretty sure is edgy/web savvy enough to browse this site. She would've been around 15 in 2006, I think, and I'm pretty certain she was into RHCP and similar alt rock at the time. Probably nothing but I dunno, I doubt the story was even real.

On one hand yes: It's a good pop psichological exploration of the alienation of consumerism.
On the other no: nihilism and unreliable narrators aren't a sobstitute for good writing.

Yeah, the Dumbledore thing never bothered me, partially because (to me at least) it explains a lot about his character, and because as gay writing goes, the Grindelwald/Dumbledore thing was pretty evident on first reading

The rest of her bullshit is pretty bad though
