I think modern Islam suffers tremendously from having lost scholarship. it's a religion based on there being a scholarly class of interpreters, who are supposed to be trained in the knowledge that mercy comes first. I know the ottomans stopped having sharia courts in the 1800s and I've heard that this lead to the complete devaluation of being 'ulama in islamic society. It's like how catholics will say that protestant sola scriptura is unsound because the scripture is supposed to be a part of the religion, that's what it was made for. So making the whole religion be the bible misunderstands what the bible is, according to them. So now we have Islam without 'ulama: is this Islam? My understanding, and God knows best, is that Islam was a system that took shape over centuries, and the centerpiece was the 'ulama which now no longer exists.

For better or worse, it seems wrongheaded for average muslims to engage with the law on their own. This may sound insane, but it seems that this is best, because interpreting the law is a science and it is meant to be taken as a whole, and no layman will ever be able to do this. So if there are no interpreters, and we are left with amateurs not trained in the tradition that mercy must come first, that madness can not be sharia, then... I don't know what we have.

What do you define as happy? I’ve always seen happiness as an emotion only felt in hindsight as in “those were some good times we had, huh?” Because our modern definition of happy isn’t happy, it’s content. It’s a neutering of the brains function of desiring more. It’s a “I just want to be left alone with my friends and job and toaster”. There is no true or real “happiness” in the modern world.

As far as normal goes, I have yet to meet someone normal in my entire life. I’ve met thousands of people, befriended quite a few. Those that seem normal, upon digging further, are absolute fucking weirdos, and the weirdos are already outwardly weirdos, compensating for some long lost ideation of meaning for the human condition.

I love you anon and hope you find solace in this post, but I do not wish for happiness for you. I don’t want you to settle. I want you to do something. Desire something. Give yourself something to look forward to, but also something to work towards. <3

They’re out there. But to pull a girl like this, you’ll need to do a considerable transformation and become a person she would conceivably desire. As of late I’ve been hit with the realization despite my default temperament that it’s not enough to just sit there on the side and know inside that you’re a decent person, or live in an internally rich world, or have a unique unexpressed personality—no, to improve your odds with women you need to do something productive related to your core values, improve at it to cultivate a feeling of self-worth, and then allow that confidence to manifest in your social interactions with others (without bragging or looking like an overcompensating prick). You could always learn PUA techniques, but that could easily backfire if you haven’t worked on yourself and have poor social skills (me). But really that’s the truth of the world— the women we desire have worked a lot on their appearance, social skills, and expect to mate with someone who has put in the commensurate effort. It’s imperative for men to realize that.

There are ulama appointed by the government in Saudi Arabia and they are well respected by the average Saudi even though it's pretty clear they're paid to repeat government's propaganda and contradicting themselves often.

Whenever these ulama try to be more liberal they are met with backlash. I think it's because Muslim thought is dominated by the Salafist idea of "we should imitate the practices and beliefs of Muhammad, his companions, and the people who lived for the following 300 years. Come up with anything beyond that and you are an infidel". Even non-salafists act like this.

Es kommt der Moment im Leben eines jeden Menschen, an dem er sich fragen muss: Soll ich bleiben oder gehen?
Wenn die roten Linien immer näher rücken, muss man sich zudem vergegenwärtigen, welche Konsequenzen man ziehen will.
Die Grundfrage lautet: Kannst du etwas im System verändern - oder verändert das System vorher doch?
Es gilt das Verhältnis zwischen persönlichem Einsatz und Chancen auf Veränderung zu reflektieren und sich aus gesundem Selbstschutz selber zu begrenzen.
Letztlich ist aber die Freiheit, die der Abschied vom System verleiht, auch die Voraussetzung einer Kreativität, mit der man erst über neue Wege und Lösungen träumen und nachdenken kann.
Während die Aufgabe risikoreich und bisweilen übermäßig groß zu sein scheint, gilt doch der Satz von Gerhard Schöne: „Du musst nicht die ganze Wüste wässern“ - und das Ziel lebendiger Bildung ist der freie Mensch.

The absurdism of cryptocurrency both amuses and frustrates me. On one level it represents the ephemeralization of finance capital to the extreme, as it is removed from the utmost to any movement in the real economy which is in the meantime tanking and struggling and falling apart. As vehicles of speculation, crypto has created another avenue by which markets could become destabilized and crashed. Because they have no inherent value and track nothing of value, there is no rhyme or reason to their fluctuations. Elon Musk merely has to utter a word and valuations go jumping. This is a simulacrum of an economy, depriving the real economy of much needed capital infusions.

On the one hand i think it's beautiful that anybody can get rich from nothing, flaunting the wage system and bypassing the "work had and you will succeed" slave mentality promoted by the ruling ideology. At the same time, crypto is a big cloud of make-believe, an diluted notional form of value, which diverts investment away from much needed areas for improvement in the real world.

In reality, crypto is its own parasitic lifeform, sucking up and wasting energy, gathering more to itself, hogging computational resources. This "smart money" has a mind and logic of its own that is completely at odds with what happens in meatspace.

Yeah it's one big pump and dump scheme . It is practically useless as a means of exchange unless your trading with someone who transacts in crypto already, meaning it is unable to buy most things. It's a speculative instrument. Unlike equities which are (usually) tied to some real world value--the growth potential, market value, etc of a company-- crypto is all based on the expectation that someone else will play the same game, buy your coins, and then be the last sucker stuck holding the bag when the chain finally runs out slack and the crypto market crashes.

In theory this cycle could continue again, and this is the second time that bitcoin--the index of crypto generally--has exploded. Eventually however there will be more sellers than buyers. Some interest with a controlling share of the coins will decide it's now time to unload their holdings, and everyone else will follow suit.

Or all it would take is governments announcing they are going to regulate it, or a production bottleneck on the hardware needed to mine coins, or any random unpredictable disturbance. It's only a matter of time before the bubble bursts because if all you have is bitcoin you don't have real money. You're only rich once you cash it out which means eventually it will implode.

I went back on a dating app for the first time in quite a while yesterday. Not used one in ages, been trying IRL a lot more to some success. Got to say it was one of the most dissociating experiences i've ever had. It really floored me just how vapid it is.

Fellas, DO NOT look into the eyes of girls pictures on Tinder. Maybe it's just where I'm from or something but nevertheless i'll elaborate. I saw nothing behond the eyes of a good 95% of the women on there. just completely blank stares. like wallpaper over glass. The moment i tried to attribute any humanity to them i just looked right through them. Interests: Netflix, Drinking, working out and If I was lucky hiking. I started to beleive i was not looking at people at all but mere representations of the human form, crudely assembled to trick only the horniest men.

1 BIG TIP: stop talking about women online. Just stop, stop thinking about it. Stop thinking about how you would talk to a woman and don't think of fake scenarios in your head.

Instead, damn it, sharpen your mind. All of your quacking about women is just a weakness, a waste of time, it's a cope, a weakness and you know it too. Focus on yourself. Love yourself. Sharpen your mind, set a goal, live life to the fullest, get stronger, get better. And then miracles can happen when you believe in them, when you believe in yourself. You're worth it. I believe in you. I believe in myself.

There's a lot of skills I don't have. I'm strong in this one area. I'm really weak at a lot of other things, and I do legit need help if I'm going to climb higher. Someone that could compliment me would be able to do things that I cannot.
I'm not very emotional in relationships though. I'm one of those people that pretty much goes questionnaire mode at the start. Do you have kids? Stds? Are you a cheater? Do you have debt? Things I should know about? Etc.
Like in your situation if you had a permissive past if you were upfront at the start and promised to put it behind you I'd be more forgiving than if it was late stage and you're bringing stuff up to piss me off, you know?

It depends on the mood. If I was in a good mood, I would laugh at it.

But a situation where no one is laughing and everything is quiet, I believe, is because there is either some restlessness or discomfort in the air, as if you have an appointment ahead of you that you don't want to go to (or you were on drugs and are in a bad mood because the effects have waned), or when one Funeral took place, OR, or if you don't know each other so well.

I saw a girl at the gym today that came in with her father. She looked like she was around late high school or early college age. She had a beauty that is only possessed by women in that stage where their bodies are fully developed but they still have an immature aura about them. Her dad could tell that I was attracted to her and catching glances while she worked out. He didn't seem jealous or overprotective, but that he was still getting used to the fact that his daughter is now attractive to men. It's like he was acutely aware of where each man in the gym's eyes were directed. This must be an odd and uncomfortable stage in the life of every father that has a beautiful daughter.

I wish I was better at the fundamental skill which is at the entire core of the society I live in: self-promotion. Even if you are good at nothing else, if you are gifted at self-promotion, everything bows before you and seas of obstacles part in your wake. Take Trump for example. I see nothing of value in almost anything he represents, aside from the occasional a "stopped clock is right twice a day" situation. Say what you will of him, but he is perfectly adapted to the American ecosystem, and more or less good at nothing besides making himself seem like he is good at everything.

My problem is I refuse to put myself out there because of rotten pride. I see self-promotion as the recourse of tiny, spiritually and philosophically and intellectually impoverished souls, a diversion and misallocation of energies. And here I am, a nobody posting his most intimate thoughts on a shitty imageboard site at 1am! If only anonymity could exert the same sort of targeted power that imposing your own identity on others and influencing them thereby can achieve.

But promoting yourself is harder or easier depending on what sort of assets you have to lay on the table. Any pretty bitch can put themselves on onlyfans and reap the benefits, but that does not interest me. Again, I defer to the great sensei and master, Trump. Despite how truly foul, odious and ugly he is, despite the fact that someone who was homeless and poor with his personality would have long ago been beaten to death in an alley, he achieves however temporarily the heights of power through no other means than his genius mastery of self-promotion and the correlated manipulation of the media and public attention.

Money is half the battle for sure, and it absolutely changes you. But I happen to have known several rich people in my time, and most of them act like overgrown babies.

>Also, I don't understand your reluctance to self promote.
I want to say my motives behind this are more complex than the fact that I'm just shy and insecure or am wary of all the heat I have seen people receive who put themselves out there. I won't deny that is part of it. Part of it also has to do with the fact that I just resent these platforms and the power they exert. To use a pop culture metaphor, to me using social media is like being assimilated with the Borg. You lose something authentic, you become a data point, you're integrated into a system which feeds off whatever traffic you produce or discards you entirely. Certainly there are people who make it work for them, and this attitude may be more of a product of my self-limiting beliefs than the fullness of what is possible. But again some stubborn pride in me resists the idea that I have to go shill myself to some untargeted and anonymous crowd in the hopes of drawing some fragment of attention.

I have no problem reaching out to targeted people who I think would be relevant to what I have to offer, but that is a different can of worms entirely.

As a native English speaker I feel lazy for not picking up Dutch and German. They are like freebies. To an attentive native English speaker's ear, you can almost infer many Dutch and German sentences, unless they are unusually complex. Both Dutch and German are the culprits, choosing to stick to gendered nouns and pronouns despite the fact that this does nothing but make the language more complex. Dutch is closer to German in that it also changes articles based on case, (why used "das, die, der" when you could just use "the"??), but German is even worse. You have to modify it if it is plural or singular.

In short, despite my confidence in my intellectual abilities, I feel like a terminally ghettoized pauper for being monolingual, and I owe that solely to the linguistic imperialism of America that worships English as some kind of ultimate language and like some kind of infectious agent seeks to promote English against all other languages.

Europeans know more languages on average than Americans not because they are smarter, but because they are exposed to them early on as pragmatics dictate. If you have the (good fortune) to live in Switzerland you probably know at least two or three languages, because to transact in Swiss society that is the minimum requirement. Monolingualism is a form of oppression or impoverishment, the absolute ideal for humanity should be to learn as many languages as possible and this should be pursued with feverish intent. The one human who masters all languages would achieve total enlightenment.

Those influential people aren't "mostly white". The entire media industry is a Jewish cartel, how do you not know this?
As for why whites would undermine their own race, they do it all the time. Whites are the least ethnocentric of all races.
And clearly metoo was used for the anti-white agenda. The media scrubs reports of tens of thousands of black-on-white rapes committed every year in the US, but focused on meme cases like Brock Turner or Brett Kavanaugh, which were taken full advantage of by the media, blaming their "whiteness".
Most of the metoo'd Hollywood people were Jews, yet the media called them white and framed it as a white male problem.

every time I see arguments like this it baffles me. you convince yourselves that the jews have all the power in the world, but even if they're disproportionately richer the vast majority of them are in the same boat as you. So you change it to only the rich jews who have power, but then what about all the billionaires who aren't jewish and are doing the same shit?

Wasted quads. There are no secret Jewish conspiratorial meetings (unless when it comes to higher-up politicians scheming for the benefit of Israel), but the Jews still act, for lack of a better term, subversive, because they inherently see themselves as outsiders in a society that could turn 1488 again at any moment and therefore they seek to undermine it.
How the fuck can you be so bluepilled, man. I'm not one of those schizos who sees Jews at every corner, but you have to realize that the predominant narrative post-WWII has been "let's radically change the fabric of white societies to prevent another Hitler", and that this change has been spearheaded by Jews.

Going to keep it discrete. Met a broad on a dating app, came to her place multiple times for sex last year. Radical feminist with self esteem issues and mental problems. Should've seen the red flags but saw no harm in a FWB fling. She was infatuated with me until things fizzled out for no reason. Got back in touch with me recently because she wanted to see me again. We went out and had a good night, same as any other. We laughed, made same conversation as usual, everything seemed perfectly fine. That was the end of it. She was happily joking with me even as I volunteered to leave closed her door on my way out. Texted me days later asking if I knew what I did. Made a bunch of false allegations over text. I kept refuting and denying her. Should've blocked her but was too much of a dumbass to realize she was trying to get some kind of evidence. Threatened to report me to college/police if I didn't apologize. She said that's all she wanted. Used my forced apology as "gotcha" texts staged by her and possibly the police. Told her parents/friends whatever twisted fantasy she chose to use. Got a call from a detective recently asking me to come in and explain my side of the story. Obviously declined and said I would only speak with him through a lawyer. Not sure what to do. I'm supposed to return to my Ivy League uni this fall, now god knows what might happen.

I do not dream of adulating crowds.

Asshole dads are a wildcard.

That just seems dumb to me. I hold nothing against my father, who is truly a good man. I view us as part of the same coextensive system of promoting the welfare of our dynasty. If he was an asshole would I seek to push myself harder to be "better" than him? That seems like the course of action for a small minded, petty person. I have always keep an eye out for what is beyond my immediate circumstances, for the fundamental, systematic forces which inform all human life. My dad has nothing to do with it.

If you’re like me you’re expecting something terrible right now: something globally catastrophic. It’s as though I can sense it in the air, waiting for everything around me to collapse. And what is all this anyways? Where are we? I can feel an imminent change to the existing infrastructure and global socio-economic status quo. Israel and Palestine are at wit’s end right now; the conflict emerging there concurs with the prophecy in Ezekiel 38. Does anyone else feel the end times are forthcoming?

I suppose man has existed long enough. It appears that the Age of Aquarius has arrived; the age of belief that preceded it is at risk of extinction. Humanity will come together and form a one-world currency and unity; the mark of the beast will be hidden in plain sight; people will have no memory of God--though indeed, they will have heard, but the leftist ‘I LOVE SCIENCE’ perspective will reach a point of no return: they will only believe themselves. Irony is a symptom of this coming age; it is a coping mechanism for the biting reality that we do not know where we came from and what is after death. In high laughter, the peak of irony’s deconstruction of meaning, Christ will return like a thief in the night: it will take you by surprise.

It is already happening. The Great Reset agenda is spreading to world governments. We’ve been in a pandemic that just shook world-systems at their core: life and death. The concept of society we were used to in 2019 may never be the same.

I've been thinking about resolutions to the Israel-Palestine conflict and I think the most interesting outcome would be Palestine somehow commits a widespread genocide on the Israeli population. I'm not some fucked up edgelord who wants to this happen, nor do I think it's likely it will, I'm just sick of the parasocial nature of these international conflicts. So many people who live on the other side of planet so easily throw their full support behind one side or the other and inflame their sense of self-righteousness based on what they see through a screen. To have a huge amount of people's snarky pro-Palestine posts on record for eternity as Holocaust 2.0 becomes a defining moment of history would be a very interesting turn of events.

so someone comes and wants to confess a sin to Muhammad. Muhammad favors forgiveness, so he tells the man "Maybe you were mistaken, there's no need to come again".

Yesterday evening I felt so dissociated from the world I live in. It was like the reality wanted me to feel bad as much as possible about my biggest insecurity, my relationship with women. At first I saw a post on Instagram about an anynomous guy that like me had not sexual relationships despite being in his 20s. Then that post was discussed on a whatsapp group I'm in, and a superficial bitch kept saying that the guy was a "creep" or something. I've read this while I was hanging with a group of friends. At a certain point, unlike the other times, the discussion centered about girls and sex. For almost two hours all I've done was laugh and smirk while the others talked about relationship and sexual experience, things I don't have. The funny thing is that between these guys I'm the oldest, one of the best looking, and for some aspect, the richest. But still I was the only that didn't have a single experience in that field, even the ugliest guy there fucked a lot of girls, even some hot ones. In the meanwhile, scrolling Instagram, I saw a post of my crush celebrating her anniversary with the bf, so no chances of her breaking up with him. Today I'm not sad or depressed, but a certain point yesterday all what I wanted to do was laying down in my bed listening to the laments of the duo "Have a nice life", which nowadays I'm really hooked to.

My spending this month has not been good. We’re not even halfway through the month and I’ve gone over my budget by nearly $300. It’s a bit of an odd month since I had to buy a plane ticket that accounts for thay and I had a wedding at the beginning of the month that I spent a lot of gas for. Idk, part of it makes me upset, but I’m not negative yet. I’ve also spent a lot on going out and extra stuff I probably didn’t need to. Next month will be better, I can’t be perfect always.

I fucking hate this respond so much, it's the most insidious, disgusting way of communicating that you have actually understood what you have read but still pretend you don't understand it. Because you can't get on with the truth, you try to be a special smartass. So then come ask what is truth? BITCH, don't give me shit like that! DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO! (Baby, this is rolling papers 2) And then these people always think they understood something, they understood Hegel or something.

I just find that I’m unable to identify with so much of American literature and 20th century American literature especially. In old American fiction, I found it’s so New England or so Deep South and in 20th century fiction, it’s all New York or the Southwest and they cycle through these grand political narratives in Pynchon or Roth or whoever. No, I don’t feel anything in common with North Jersey boys like Roth, New Yorkers like DeLillo or even fetishists of the Southwest like McCarthy. It’s like if you’re not growing up on the fringes of the New York metropolitan area or along the United States-Mexico border than American literature, reading it or writing it, just isn’t for you anymore.

Is it me? What am I missing? Why do I feel this way and why can’t I find anything from my own country that I just really like?

No, you won’t. I’m 100% certain that the goose will completely destroy you and if you manage to fight it off at all, it will be because it simply decides not to mess with you anymore rather than you doing any real damage to it. Not only do they have powerful beaks and teeth with talons, but getting hit full force with one of their wings will be like getting punched by an adult male. The fact that females especially think they could fight off a goose unarmed is laughable and shows how detached from reality we are. The dog at least sort of makes sense because you’re in a constant state of dominion over them so it’s natural that they’d feel that way.

There actually is one case of someone killing a grizzly bear unarmed; they jumped on its neck, choked it until it was unconscious, and then smashed a rock on its head until its dead. So there is a 0.0001% chance to kill a bear unarmed.

>This bear was taken by world famous hunter and hunting guide C. Dale Petersen of Jackson Hole, Wyoming. It is one of only two grizzlies known to have been killed "without" the use of modern weaponry. Verified by game biologists, Mr. Petersen killed this bear with his hands, and oddly enough, his teeth. It is known that this bear had been aggravated by a group of backpackers, shortly thereafter, Petersen, unaware of previous happenings, came upon the bear. A fight-to-the-death ensued. Petersen, having his right hand and arm wedged in the bear's throat, actually used his own teeth and jaws to pinch off the bear's jugular vein. When the bear passed-out from the lack blood flow to the brain, Petersen beat the bear in the head with a stick.

it says 'aggravated', not sure what that really means in this case.
