1. Go to warosu
2. Go to lit archives
3. Input "not bill murray"
4. Enjoy

Play around a bit with some of his repeating language. Searching keywords like "Prince Lucio Rimanez," "Charles X Kinbote of [whatever] University," "Pale Flamer" and "ghost of Mary McCarthy" will yield wild results. For the uninitiated, not bill murray/ghost of mary mccarthy/pale flamer was one of the most riveting (and borderline schizo) minds to ever lurk this board and was responsible for multiple wild literary theories (Crying of Lot 49 is a failed puzzle novel linked to Torquato Tasso, Shakespeare is the most obvious penname/cover up in English history, IJ is actually about religion in post-modernity), at least two /lit/ urban legends, and had everyone convinced he was Pynchon basically to this day by pointing out a wild coincidence between a star in a DW Griffin film and James Joyce (as well as the whole Vassar/Japanese Insurance Adjuster thing).

I'm not sure if that's what Eco meant in that article, but it is accurate to say that fascism draws on eternal truths, though coloured by a self-aggrandizing resentment.

But yeah that post is pretty accurate. Liberal society is one that accepts everyone so long as they cease to be themselves. It is not tolerant nor even intolerant, it is anti-tolerant. It refuses to allow people to even be in a way that requires tolerance.

bored suburban kid, mostly uninterested in politics up until the election, discovers /pol/, thinks trump owning the libs is funny, starts believing conspiracy theories, transitions from ironic racism to obsessive white supremacism.

Yeah I came across the article in a 20th century philosophy class where the last 3rd of the class was essentially just delving into trying to explain philosophy behind 9/11, with terrorism obviously standing as a big point in that. But interestingly I've seen this sort of thinking popping up independently across disciplines in political science and psychology as well, although nobody really seems to make connections between radical Islam in al-Ummah and incel uprising shit in the West. It's an interesting area that definitely needs more examination and I think it could really lend some answers towards what it is that's going so wrong to lead to so many thousands or even millions of young men to feel so alienated.

Well yeah, radical losers in the West aren't going to fall back onto Islam. Well, to be more specific, radical Westerners are not, because if you look at Muslims in the West you find that 2nd and 3rd generation Muslims in countries like France and UK are more radical than the original immigrants. They feel they're losers so they fall back onto the beliefs of their ancestors, the beliefs they know (Islam) to fight their enemy (the Western capitalist world order). White Westerners aren't going to attempt to recreate the caliphate, they're going to try to recreate Rome (fascism), or a 1000 year Aryan Reich (natsoc). Of course this goes back to my original post where I claimed that Western radical losers are depoliticized, so they end up aimless lone-wolf types. But how long could that last? Alt-right /pol/ type stuff certainly isn't close to mainstream yet, but I don't think anyone would disagree with the fact that it's closer to being mainstream than anytime since WW2 and it doesn't seem to be receding.

>The fundamentalist Islamic terror is NOT grounded in the terrorists' conviction of their superiority and in their desire to safeguard their cultural-religious identity from the onslaught of the global consumerist civilization: the problem with fundamentalists is not that we consider them inferior to us, but, rather, that THEY THEMSELVES secretly consider themselves inferior (like, obviously, Hitler himself felt towards Jews) - which is why our condescending Politically Correct assurances that we feel no superiority towards them only makes them more furious and feeds their resentment. The problem is not cultural difference (their effort to preserve their identity), but the opposite fact that the fundamentalists are already like us, that they secretly already internalized our standards and measure themselves by them. (This clearly goes for Dalai Lama who justifies the Tibetan Buddhism in WESTERN terms of the pursuit of happiness and the avoidance of pain.) Paradoxically, what the fundamentalists really lack is precisely a dosage of "true" "racist" conviction into one's own superiority.

The goal of feminism is to remove all constraints on female sexuality while maximally restricting male sexuality.

The feminist utopia is a world where women are all naked in public but it’s illegal to look at them, where this law is enforced selectively against the men who disgust or scorn them. In such a world an individual woman will voluntarily submit herself in sexual slavery to the highest-value man who will have her. She will then have the rest of the men who look at her arrested, and boast on social media about the highest value ones she destroyed to virtue signal how much higher value she must be. “Can you believe he thought he had a chance with me when I’m in George Clooney’s harem? The nerve! He brought his destruction on himself, if you think about it.” The #MeToo movement, which is an escalation of divorce rape from marriage to mere dalliances, is an early warning sign of this legal system being put into place.

A consequence of this is that you get a split of the male population into a slave demographic, which dares not raise its head, and an ever-shrinking pool of eligible bachelors. After all, no girl’s ego can withstand dating a man from the lowest level of the remaining dominance hierarchy, so each day a thin slice is cut from the bottom of the pyramid of non-slaves. This is another way of stating that the revealed preference of women is to share a higher value man rather than settling for non-serial monogamy with a lower value man. Eventually, only Donald Trump and a giant population of male slaves remain, and all the women are sanctified concubines to the king and waited upon by eunuchs who dare not even look at them. This is the feminist utopia. It’s a great deal if you’re part of the (N + 1)/2.

>I'm not a hedonist but let me explain to you why I think hedonism is right
C'mon anon. You want to know what I want personally? I want an eternal frontier. Frontier is the only place a man can be truly free; it's too dangerous for women to act on feminist whims, it's by definition too far removed from civilization for large governments to regulate and bureaucratize everything, and for those settling the frontier on behalf of the dominant power there is nearly limitless economic potential for small enterprise as opposed to the conglomerate hellscape of (sub)urban society. But how do you get a frontier? Well that requires conquest I guess. Wild West came from Americans conquering Indians, colonial frontiers from Europeans conquering Africans, Siberia from Russia conquering central Asia. Frankly I see some form of nationalism as the best way go about motivating people into this kind of thing. I guess that would put me more into the "fascist" camp than traditionalism, although I honestly have no special animosity for other race I'd think the ends justify the means in accomplishing an eternal frontier.

In the long term? Why wouldn't it? The problem isn't that capitalism has velocity, it's that it has acceleration. I don't know how old you are, I'm not really that old in the grand scheme of things but even in my lifetime I've watched thing become more...universal in a way. Local and regional variety disappears and is absorbed into the multicult-borg culture. Everything new we build looks the same everywhere you go as we expand outwards and now with with mass migration shit the people will be the same too. Look at how much we expanded from 1900-2000, where wilderness turned into sprawl and now imagine this century by the end.

In the lab, animals that have their amygdalas burned out experimentally with surgery or chemicals act exactly like leftists. They don’t live their lives in fear either. They don’t demonstrate anything like healthy organic natural responses. They seem insane. They rut wildly, neglect their offspring and abandon them to starve, approach their deadly enemies without any kind of caution and in general act like they are rabidly crazy.
In the natural world, this results in a strong case of death and ends with the faulty brain reaching room temperature. In human societies, this can land you some sweet grants, lifelong tenure and guaranteed income for life spouting gibberish while you completely wreck your own nation and welcome exterminating invasion hordes with open arms and a euphoric smile. It’s all good, everything will be fine, snicker. Have you ever seen the leftist doing that sneer? They really do believe it when they say it. Of course they do, they have brain damage.

They are simply playing on the neuroses of a dysfunctional and confused population. The responsibility for this dysfunction lies in the individuals who fulfill it, however vast that group may appear.

What is wrong with leftism? The richest, happiest, and most highly democratic countries on earth run on social democracy. It's not insane to assume that within that same system capitalism will end it's expansionism as a means of survival stage. Technology will render capitalism useless (i.e production is so cheap and automated that anyone will be able to self-sustain) but only through capitalism will we be able to develop the technologies necessary for it's own dissolution. Assuming, say, that a Finland remains equally as democratic as it is today and technology keeps advancing, it's safe to assume that it will enter a post scarcity era in less than 100 years.

The biggest threat to society isn't leftism, it's de-regulation, stupid people electing other stupid people, and a lack of direct democratic representation. Also war (which nowadays is brought about by fascism or corporatism (((which are culled by a strong democracy))))

Switzerland has a direct democracy, but there are levels of democratic participation. Take the US for example. Studies show almost none of the things people want are actually acted on by politicians. Now for instance recently in my country there was a controversy regarding parties being bribed by corporations; after enough media pressure and protests eventually the government was forced to make it illegal to have lobbyists donating money to them. So there's degrees though it all starts with the media and how people get their information.

This is actaully pretty normal in Scandinavia. Relationships start out with sex and deepen as they go on (or not). It works pretty well.

May be different there but in an Anglo country if your relationship starts with casual sex then you know it's never going to be as deep, intimate, and long-lasting as a natural development of intimacy and romance, and eventual sex as an extension of them. It will probably just be a childish utilitarian thing, take-give, instead of an actual relationship.
