This time of year always makes me conscious of the passing of time and dredges up all the existential angst I've been repressing since last Christmas

[Anonymous No.21412460]

Toward the end of dark age, people are infatuated with notion of immersion; ignoble entities are in a quest toward total immersion in virtual sensuous experience, not even interested in real sensuous experience anymore, they wish to be consumed in pleasure as immediately as possible, and virtuality, not reality, is the most immediate medium toward that end.

This phenomenon is the ultimate logical consequence to materialism —from materialism derive all dissolutive tendencies; from materialism sprout hatred, and attachment; from hatred, and attachment, the forces of hybridization derive their power.

There are few things more pathetic than the sanctimoniousness with which heralds of immersion, from transhumanists, to sociologists, preach regarding their struggle toward redemption through technology, proclaiming immersion, augmentation, and mechanization, as boons for «humanity».

Immersion is detrimental to perfection; immersion subsumes and dilutes consciousness, stymieing, and ultimately precluding, entity's ontological fulfillment, and crippling entity's soul.

Immersion: from latin prefix: «in» («in», «into», «on», «onto», «upon»), and latin verb: «mergere» («to merge», «to blend», «to plunge», «to dive», «to dip»).

Immersion entails hybridization of entity, through absorption and mergence, with what is extraneous to it, resulting in ontolysis.

Entity in condition of immersion is not operating with conscious awareness, because consciousness is suppressed, or nullified, as entity is reduced to reactive operation, virtually incapable of active, or proactive, operation, therefore, entity in condition of immersion is an automaton.

This is all there is. We all will die. I want to spend every day doing something I will remember. Why am I so sad, yet I will not cry? Our existence is an infinitely absurd thing. Day after day I stop and just gawk at how incredible it all is, my body, my hands, the leaves on a tree, the feeling when wanting to prove myself to someone… I can’t take it. It overwhelms me. I enjoy pain now; I think of the time I writhed on the bathroom floor with fever at 4 am, and I remember it fondly, like an adventure. Everything is a miracle. I can’t tell if I should be grateful or angry. Considering that both pain and pleasure are exclusive to life, it is hard to say if the nothingness of death would truly be better. After all, what’s “better” is not a concept known to the dead. To suffer or to be in ecstasy, we exist either way. I really want to cry.

life as a reasonably intelligent but high time preference person is hell. you can sit and reason out all of the ways in which you're fucking yourself over, you can explain them perfectly clearly, and then you keep doing them anyway. the ability to explain the problem doesn't grant the ability to resolve it, but it does make it all the more difficult for those around you to see the issue in a sympathetic light - one can sympathize with a less intelligent person who can't understand the damage they do, it's much harder to sympathize with someone who can understand but cannot control it.

I can't think of anyone I don't currently want to kill. I woke up to some hallucinations of someone, close-ish, an acquaintance, bulling me and harassing me. Must be cause I put on headphones the other night to watch some hypnosis videos on YouTube, and there was a womanchild yelling and hollering at 2 AM in the morning disturbing my healing and affirmations time. As I feel intense hatred during the whole session, unable to hang up the phone like I should, because I'm stubborn, I find it really triggering the good and pure scripts, rather than blocking everything out and listening to sissy hypno like a freak. And I don't think random strangers I've never met give a shit whether I am fucking my then dirty asshole with this giant dildo on camera. My acquaintance I hallucinated like the old days. When I'd cry at friends who have a family and I wasn't feeling well, because I was getting picked on, because I'm the impoverished condemned scapegoat who's become such an inadequacy they have to hurt others to feel a sense of rebound or win or success, rather than never conceiving such hate to sanitize a dirty conscience filled with scenes of echoing the instinct to remove this loathe filled seething other. It's really not my fault I hear and speaks to me this echoing in hypnagogic half-awake stares. What is this blade of vitriol? It is obviously the shard you're stabbing me with, from this stupid fucking malignant broken pot that is so desperate for attention it glares a light burning the weaker feelings as, it scratches its own head, infuriatingly beginning, to wonder paralytically. This becomes a hollow vessel sinisterly portraying false darkness and the declining mortification of rabid teeth. And I am, verily earns it to my hypnotist, with the blade once more, cutting into the darkness that light, finding renewal in the steadfast hope of his wisdom. There is no wisdom! There is just this bitter tipping point and feces flavored coffee mortally betraying my obscure bowel fucked motions. As well as these other plagues of disastrous non-sequitur. Like your face. Maybe you should find the inner conflict's devastation yourself and fuck your life with the hammer of malignant holiness. It's resounding a million times, maybe I'm dead on the cross? If you don't make this right, this injustice my life, of grave tomorrows I foresee, ember the world hellishly vast, convalescere for tonic ashes and hobbling ghouls a leg a torn page. May the script run dryly, atoningly phosphorating the decrepit humidly desert of anatta, and it's ringer's find more peace aforethought in the blank judgment that they who raise impart in this total habit spectre conjoined. May sympathy aphenom mercy the zealous slate and remain brisk in it's horrifying sublumination in strictest real paroxysmal humanity.

I care. The discourse that's allowed is something everyone should care about. Even if you are the type of person who screams nigger at the top of their lungs in public anyway, the fact that normies can't say "faggot" should worry you as that means other people are controlling the discourse and your values are losing out. Nice attempt at gaslighting me with that canned "who cares? that's so pathetic to care about that" line though.

One thing I noticed is so many philosophers (critical theorists are the worst offenders) seem to think everything needs to be broken and analyzed to the bitter end and while I'm okay with some commentary here and there I really do not give a flying fuck about something as banal as I dunno, "The neocolonial implications of Pinocchio" or "why Godzilla symbolizes the never ending success of capitalism" Some things just don't need to be hyperanalyzed and given extreme scrunity or act as an avatar of some bigger psychological, sociological, or economic or god forbid, anthropological quality or character.

I've noticed that I'm attracted to women(no shit), but I think most of them are fucking dumb and/or boring, so I end up just objectifying them and looking at then purely as sexual objects then either jerking off to them later or forgetting them right then and there. Meanwhile, I can't do this to women I find interesting and/or intelligent and kind of feel genuinely attracted to them on a physical level of course, but also on a spiritual and mental level. I can't even begin to explain why this is. I haven't dated at all in my life and have had a handful of female friends, which I did care about as a person instead of just a love interest. I'd like to get to know them better as people and if a romance starts, so be it. But, it just seems that most women, regardless of they are church girls/whores/theater girls, etc are just meant to enage your sexual passion instead of seeing them as a real human being. For me, it seems like there are very few woman that are friend material let alone wife/gf material.

I dont know where it all went wrong. Perhaps I lagged at puberty where everyone was chasing sex and relationships were I just wanted to spend time with friends. I was never comfortable around girls and had (still have) an extremely massive stigma over sexual physical contact. I'd either run away or completely freeze in place if I end up with a naked girl on the same bed. I've seen uglier, dumber, poorer and more autistic guys to get gfs yet theres something missing in me. I dont know whenever its destiny, my lack of effort or not being at right time at right place ever in my life. I dont even feel like human anymore.

True. Most men are fucking dumb and worth avoiding at all costs
I ignore most men since they just seem rather dull as people, just like most women. But I feel it more with women since I'm sexually attracted to women and not men. Plus, I've had plenty of male friends that I coukd hang out with and do shit like play guitar, play video games and work on cool projects with. I have not really met women like that at all past high school. It's annoying but whatever. I'm certain there are women that I could not only hang out with, but start a meaningful relationship with out there. I've just got to find that place and that woman. Oitside of that, I don't really care for dating women or making friends with women (and more generally people) that I have nothing in common with. I don't get why most people do this all in the name of not being alone. I'm not saying not to make friends or to find love, but people don't seem to take the time to get to know themselves, what they are interested in and what they want from life before making the decision to find a spouse. That's really what drives me to make friends with people: knowing that this person is basically another me but with their own story regarding how they got to where they are now.

I feel like I've failed as human in general sense. There's no cope with that as for example being highly creative but being absolute loser in anything else. I do think about death all the time and how it completely negates any effort you do. Sure, I could think about it in a very rational way as everyone dies one day that's that but it doesnt liberate me but gives me a massive anxiety over wasting my life (30 years at the moment) on nothing. I do feel sadness over comparing myself to younger friends and being completely behind in everything whenever it's career, material possessions or relationships. However when I think about whenever I really need them or it's just a social pressure (as in twisted Super-Ego) talking - I do not know. Another saddening thoughts is that even if I manage to fix my life, there's no going back to the past and reliving the experience with a different mindset. Who's to blame? Maybe it's God, Destiny or me. I'm so confused about life and nothing makes sense, like I want to carve my own path but I do not trust myself over other people.

It's like a fog I guess. I'm tired all the time. I had some kind of a minor psyhcotic break. I kind of thought I was Jesus for a while. It didn't come to much though, except I thought my friend was Judas and he was gonna murder me in my sleep. He doesn't know this happened. I just kind of went to bed expecting it, or that God would stifle his efforts, whichever it would be. I don't really understand much of anything. I just rest a lot. Still. 10 years of this pretty soon. It seemed like it was getting better. It could get better. But there's just a great discrepancy between me and the world by now. No one really knows what has happened. It's mostly a fog for me. Every once in a while it's like elements of that fog line up into a suggested interpretation, and with that an action. So I do something but I really don't understand why. Sometimes I think I'm gonna do a proper mass murder. I think my stress resilience has gone down a lot. Things get to me pretty easily. The days just go by, one after another they just go by. I'm mostly in bed. I guess I kind of gave up on the psych people. I'm in touch with my family for the first time in a long time but we don't really love eachother. It's something, maybe, it does matter. I want them to love me still, I think. That's probably good. But uh I really don't know why I do the things that I do. It's all a fog and then there's some action and I don't get where it comes from. I used to think that people who wanted to do some massmurder should just kill themselves and not bother anyone, but I imagine it would be driven by a kind of hunger. I also imagine I'd have time to cool off. I think you should probably prepare stuff like that.

I imagined I walked in a winterry forrest landscape, and it was somewhat dark. Tall trees, somewhat sparsely placed. I came across my ex on all fours with pants around her knees being fucked in the ass by a wolf. And she gave me this horny, challenging look like "what are you gonna do?" First when this fantasy came I thought "shit what am I supposed to do? Do I stick my dick in her mouth or what? Do I watch? Is this humiliating for me? I can't tell, it feels humiliating." But then it came back and the second time around I just left. I imagined she'd still be there, her plan foiled, shed kind of go down on her elbows a little bit broken that it hadn't worked, she hadn't achieved anything and now she had to wait for the wolf to finish or it would kill her. Maybe her asshole would bleed. I imagined somehow her vagina would have been overflowing at first, as a part of the challenge, but would then somehow dry up. After the wolf finished it would come to lick her face but she would just push it off, sit in the snow on her bare ass and shuffle up her pants again, stand up in the quiet, alone now, go catch a bus and go home to a meaningless night. It felt good. It felt like I was liberated somehow.

This was an irresponsible way for me to use money and the people in my life would know that, so I can’t tell anybody that I know for fear of embarrassment.

She had an ability to pinpoint weaknessess in you and bring them to light, and she clearly knew things she shouldn't know. I think so anyway, maybe I was gullible. Otherwise she lied a lot. Possible, but it seemed real. It's just that it seemed like she wanted to shuffle into a position of leadership in my life. I think she might have been a demon. This really happened you guys. My friend thinks she's great. I really can't telll. I do feel like you shouldn't have these kinds of doubts if someone really is a saint. It shouldn't be saint or demon king, it should be a lot simpler.

she lent me books by her spiritual master, who gets some degree of circulation around here. I've actually been in a zoom-meeting with him a while ago. It seemed like complete bunk, Except that he said one thing that I think was aimed at me that seemed on point. I really couldn't understand why he'd spend his time doing his other schtick. The other kids all looked like honey was being poured in their eyes, like they couldn't believe the dude was really here now, on screen, live. It turned me off from a lot of things. I have met one of his acolytes I kind of liked though, although he had a really weird vibe about his teachers. I think a sound spiritual leader can switch between roles freely, they can be informal and at ease. He can, the guy I like, except about this one thing which he really overreacted about. I don't know, I guess I'm just trying to figure out who's who.

I had a dream last night. A few anime fans I knew were trying to use magic tutorials they found on discord and one was live streaming it. It apparently was real. I remember a telekinesis tutorial and a flight one. There was one of them that was also doing SS and they did both tutorials successfully. One guy had a good enough grasp on telekinesis he was able to use it on concrete.

Apparently Bratz Dolls were in the dream with an ice cavern.

If you forgive yourself, you don't need a cope. You can fully own up to what happened and choose to move forward. Moreover, I don't think what you originally mentioned - not having casual relationships at a younger age - is something to be all that ashamed of. Realistically, you probably wouldn't have married the would-be women, so what you're talking about is just a series of casual flings. Do you really find so much dignity in that to be so regretful? I wouldn't.

Realistically, can a book make you cope better with loneliness?
I thought in my 7th year as a lonely adult that I’d gotten better at dealing with it. However all i do is relapse and use unhealthy methods to numb the pain. Like wasting my time scrolling, consuming, never creating.
I’ve been journaling for a few days and all it’s done is simply make me even more aware than I already am of the shitty aspects of my existence. It’s very tiresome.

Yeah I'd say thats accurate. The fear becomes more pronounced the further into my 20s I get. You see, my birthday is in january and so I can track my life with the years. I was born at a unique time so I age with the century.
The realization that I'm no longer an adolescent and all the things afforded to adolescence is now gone from me feels like a giant rugpull. Time is moving faster and faster and it feels like the years are emptier and more hollow. Less intense, less exciting, less meaningful. And thats how I came to feel the full weight of time. I really came to understand the meaning of finitude. I talked a lot about it on this general back at the turn of the last year. I had some funny ideas about how humans walk on the edge of eternity and temporality. Someone reccomended I read Unamuno whom I enjoyed.
So I guess it's twofold. I feel the march towards death as the final end, but I also feel the process of agingand how it affects me within the duration of life. I dont want to be a tired old man with creaky knees and aching joints. I dont want a wrinkled face and receeding hairline. I want to be able to run and jump and go on benders and really feel the full presence of life. But I know that at least half of my natural life span will be beyond that point, with the enjoyment of life as such as only a memory and a regret. It wouldnt be so bad if I could age backwards like Benjamin Button. Then i wouldn't feel the loss of life within my lifespan.

Damn you're retarded.
You have to come to terms with the fact that you're not static and that living is a dynamic act. It sounds like your fear of aging is really just a result of your lack of satisfaction with your own life and the way in which you're choosing to live it. As you age you develop a deeper understanding of yourself and the world, you find yourself with the ability to shape your environment into the one you wish to live in. How is your life now less meaningful, emptier than when you were a no-nothing child? You're conflating the heightened emotional sensation that is the novelty of youth with meaning and purpose. If there's something you want from life you have the means to pursue it and I promise you that there are a great many number of things you desperately want that will be spiritually fulfilling to you whether you are currently aware of them or not.

You only have regrets when you wish that you were a different person, when you dislike yourself. You’ve got to accept yourself and move on.

It's true that a sentence can be fallacious, but if you think about what the person really means, by applying a charitable interpretation of what the person is saying, then it's doubtful that the person really means to say something the way in what you're calling out as fallacious, which would be a straw man on your part and not what the person actually is saying in the sentence, as what the person is saying is dependent on the context of the belief's of the person saying the sentence who would unlikely intentionally say something that disproves what the person thinks, and given the ability to write the sentence in a non-fallacious way would likely have had written their sentence in such a way as to not be criticized.

I think you're the most brilliant woman unfortunately stuck in a girl's body cursed by a genetically golden heart into a life of being eternally confused about your womanhood. You never learned to trust, so you don't, and you feel you must, so you try, but you stop at first signs, of genuine, understanding trust. Sometimes, I think you deserve to live with it, because let's face it, by all standards, you are an awful person. So quickly I realize how wrong my assumptions are each time in that your behavior is the symptom not the cause which causes feelings of pity inside of me, though can you really pity someone who actively works on suppressing their own potential, day by day, purposefully numbing their intellectually exceptional brain into soul-destroying mush? I also think you met your soulmate (the only chance at happiness) at the most wrongful time in both of your lives and the only thing other than vanity preventing either of you from accepting the true, primordial bond you feel towards each other is the fact that both of you realize it would be unavoidably disasterous to sustain any form of relationship between the two of you, be it platonic or romantic in the current states of your lives. We are not at all different outside of our drug of choice. You said alcohol is ruining my life, no, it is supplementing it whenever I feel you desperately banging out from inside my very being reminding me that you are real, and you do want me to relapse by getting in touch with you again just to remember how orgasmic it feels simply to look at you doing the same little nuances that made me fall in love with you in the first place, only for you to go away again and unwillingly but guiltlessly turn me into a shaking, vomiting, walking carcass looking for a rut to lay in. You are an anomaly of existence, something such as you should not by any possibility be allowed to exist, yet you do, but someplace far from me, unreachable, untouchable, and may damned be the people that ridicule me by denying my belief in apparitions.

A well placed rant can trigger an avalanche. Butterfly effect and all that. My postings are not incitement--they are too literary and dignified for that. But they contribute to a general atmosphere of negativity that statistically and in the aggregate bursts and overflows into meatspace.

You might say I am deluding myself but I have no illusions about being the spark that ignites the revolution. But don't you see there is SUCH a PREMIUM on truth, so rarely is it perceived let alone articulated , that he who possesses truth has immeasurable power, be he in dressed in lowly rags or princely shahtoosh. Simply thinking the truth in and of itself exerts a crushing force that compacts and shoves down into nothingness the walking shadow phantoms of pure lies that rule over us. For all their power strives for one thing: to build lies. Defeat the forgery, see the fact, and suddenly you are free from their epistemological terrorism. Truth is divine. It sheds its immaterial light over the physical world of temporal might and renders it transparent. I may at least die with my eyes open. Can just anyone say the same?

Take the armchair psychology back to Reddìt. I long stopped wanting to be happy. I get off on being miserable. That's why I don't even want her. Despair is what makes a man constantly question and doubt himself which leads to ideas and challenges. Contentedness is just willful ignorance. You never had a deeply psychological connection with anyone to the point of knowing exactly what the other person is thinking about in a room full of people just by looking into their eyes and seeking each other's gaze to affirm the situation whenever somebody else does something. You never had someone gravitate to you so hard that for any miniscule thing that happens in the room you somehow end up beside each other, subconsciously, and the only thing you can do is start grinning like children at one another. You just get each other, even if you disagree.

HIGH TIME FOR A NEW WORLD

The name of the game is exploitation
The script for the kids is indoctrination
Into wage slavery via education
No questions allowed concerning your role
As a human labor cog in the matrix of control
Before you realize its your soul that they stole
Another brick in the wall to teach you how to die
How to serve and survive and not how to thrive
To relinquish your freedom for the nine to five
To shut your heart down, become part of the hive
Signed away your future with a mortgage and a wife
Who will make sure you play the game of life
And birth some cannon fodder kids, like hay to a scythe
No human souls around, just pedestrians
No cash to spend, well, you best stay in
Cant see the stars cant hear the birds singing
Shotgunned awake to the alarm clock ringing
As the rivers run dry, dont bother as to why
Youve got bigger fish to fry, like whose gonna die in game of thrones season five
The food from the store dont taste like it used to
It aint the customer these companies are true to
From monocrops to our water supply goes the pesticide poisons
Its in goddamn everything, aint somethin you got a choice in

Microplastics now found in human fetuses
Wonder what direction this trend will lead us in
A few miles out of town is a mountain of trash
It wont be much longer before the forests are ash
Dija know most prisoners vibe like children?
Ever notice this system has torture built in?
Industrial animal farms with toxic rivers of pigshit
The filth of society is swellin up like a big tick
Just another day till "WEVE JUST LOST CABIN PRESSURE"
Inside of our heads lookin like an MC Escher
Wait, which way is up? Mad smilin like a cheshire
From the pulpit to the podium of the preist and the president,
"Dont think for yourself" is their line, theyre adamant
Suburban designs to keep us trapped in our minds
Confusion and loneliness, a sign of the times
"First world countries", where community is functionally dead
Here everyone, have a parasocial relationship instead
Commonwealth has dwindled to a needlepoint
We're FUBAR and im ready to blow this joint
Cant live without screens, theyre keepin tabs on your dreams
Internal our screams. Happiness? We just dont got the means
Dunno bout you but ive had enough of these games
Its about time this whole thing went up in flames
To make way for a world that isnt a living nightmare
Where you dont have to worry when you breathe in its air
And you dont have to worry if its okay to care
Where sun shines on green pastures and lush rainforests
And the air is alive with insect and animal chorus
A more beautiful world is possible and is in fact before us
The moment we decide together "NO MORE OF THIS"

I understand myself completely now. I am somebody who has extremely high intelligence on one wing (I was tested to have a 145 I.Q. in the 5th grade) and extremely high capacity for emotional experience (empathy) on the other. My entire life has been a quest to learn how to soar without either of these wings overpowering the other, and instead working in tandem. And how I have soared! I soared to the Cosmos and hugged it via amateur astronomy as a teenager. I soared and hugged the world of knowledge in college. I soared and hugged the world of creativity when I grew a 3D modeling business. Each time I soared, I eventually crashed back to Earth because of the problems of the world around me, which I couldn't help but take on as my own; I am inextricably linked with my environment. Nobody could teach me or train me, I had to find a way to do it myself. My quest eventually led me to the fundamental problems of existence: metaphysics, and to process philosophy, which gave me the tools I needed to synchronize my wings. Now I have learned to soar on a level that I have never achieved before. There is only one option: to teach the entire world how to soar with me.

When one has experienced some misfortune in life, they are apt from then on to be judged in every way relative to that single misfortune. Every negative behaviour, thought, or belief, or any way in which one differs from the socially acceptable norms is deemed to result from some misbegotten trauma. Anyone that has been found guilty of experiencing misfortune is dehumanized to such a degree that their entire identity and every action thenceforth is understood merely as an autonomic response from broken mind. Is it possible that one has come to their beliefs organically? Rationally? No. It is a simple and direct causal result of circumstances out of their control.
It is for this reason that one should not speak of misfortune.

A young man sits alone at the edge of a massive bridge. His feet dangle at the bottom of legs that look like twigs. The headlights of the cars zooming behind him are only visible as bright warm white and yellow blurs in the early morning rain. The man himself is soaking wet His face is not sad, but merely tired, with a smile that suggests not resentment, but rather resignation to a reality, the certainty of which he has long since grown accustomed to. Anyone who has any familiarity with such scenes can form some hypothesis as to what they are witnessing, but what can one do?
What could bring someone to this point, deeming the world of the living to no longer possess what they need to justify their own existence?
Sentient beings require meaning. It is the central tragedy of this world that by necessity, it is a factory for lies. Natural selection by a process of elimination removes from the gene pool any trait that prevents an organism from surviving and reproducing. This extends to the ideas within the mind. Ideas which perpetuate themselves survive and flourish, ideas which foster their own destruction fade into oblivion like so many lost cults of antiquities come and gone. Suppose that it were a fact that there is nothing in this world to objectively justify the continuation of sentient life. Suppose that, rationally, there were no reason to get out of the bed in the morning. Suppose one knew on the deepest possible level that this were the case. Humanity could look throughout the cosmos for a hundred trillion years and find nothing resembling objective meaning for our own existence. One would think that in a world founded upon rationality, this fact would become widely accepted and whatever necessarily came from such a finding would occur. However, this is not the case at all. Natural selection dictates that those ideas, even if true, which do not lead to reproduction must perish. Those ideas which foster survival and reproduction will endure so long as they are able, especially if they are founded upon lies and foolish hopes.
When one pierces through the lies and deception that form the foundation of all our philosophical traditions, one finds oneself without grounding. One isn't merely on the ocean without a sail, one is without any sense of where one would go if one had a sail. Compasses don't point home, they merely point north.
Suicide enters the equation of life once all the diversions fail. When one is so wracked by the difficulty of life that reason is forced to overtake passion and, once at the helm, finds that there is no rational direction for the ship of life to take. Philosophers consistently fail because they base their worldviews on the assumption that passion must be subject to reason, not realizing that this is impossible. Humanity's most vital impulses stem not from reason, but from unreasonable base desire. This is why psychiatrists prescribe pills instead of textbooks.

I feel like a total alien in Britain. Today I heard two girls talking about how the Tories are so evil for being capitalistic and conservative. This is a common thing in British society for leftists to act rebellious by denigrating the Tories. But the truth is that in Britain both the Conservatives and Labour are socialist parties who both support left-wing economic and social policies. The tories engage in endless taxation, money-printing, and welfare spending, support migrants, gays, and trannies.

the major ones like choosing to stay at the same school and not switching to other, poorly choosing bachelor and completing it instead of dropping out and doing ANYTHING else, returning to parents place and neeting till 30 and overall lack of any intimate relationships and friendships. Even if I somehow manage to unfuck my life, there's no going back to that period and redoing it with the newly acquired mindset. The past mistakes haunt me on the every corner and I just corner up in my bed.

They're both socialist/social democratic parties, with left-wing social values to boot. Yet the overton window is so far to the left that these people consider Tories right wing.

They both support corporate welfare and immigration for the benefit of corporations. They combine a conservative disregard for public welfare with a progressive disregard for the national interest. You clearly have no idea what the "the left" actually is.

>Animated by wisdom, this Essence dwells in itself, and it could never inhere in other things. It is these, on the contrary, that come to depend from it, as if with passion seeking where it may be. That is the love that watches at the door of the beloved, which remains ever near the beautiful, agitated with the desire of possessing it, and esteeming itself happy to share in its gifts.

>corporate welfare
Yes, the state using tax money to subsidise certain "favoured" companies and setting up regulation and barriers to entry so that they would be protected from competitors is not capitalism, it's socialism.
>immigration for the benefit of corporations
By abolishing free trade the state props up inefficient corporations who cannot compete internationally. It disincentivises them to move to areas with cheap labour, so they instead wish to import cheap labour here. Again this is not capitalism.
>conservative disregard for public welfare
No they do not. They are constantly printing money, raising taxes, and giving handouts. The reason inflation is so bad right now is because they do NOT have a disregard for "public welfare" (ie handouts). A capitalist economy does not function on fiat currency, it would have a gold standard or, better yet, cryptocurrency. This is socialism.

I feel like a total alien in Britain. Today I overheard two twats talking about how benefit ‘scroungers’ are so evil for being poor procariats. This is a common thing in British society for right wingers to act entitled by denigrating the poor. But the truth is that in Britain both the Conservatives and Labour are right wing parties who both support right-wing economic and social policies. New Labour did away with many of the socialist principles the labour movement was founded upon, Starmer just keeps repeating nondom over and over again like some stark raving lunatic during pm’s questions and the previous labour leader was a facking antisemite that didn't stand a chance because he didn't attend eton college ! If THAT'S considered "pro-social democracy" and "normal” today then I wonder what they would think about my views.

I can sympathize with the NEET thing. I have never NEETed, but I've spent the second half of my twenties at a very unremarkable, unambitious, disappointing sort of job and one which has no obvious next step or off-ramp. I basically see it as a blemish on my biography. It makes me feel like I can't do what I want to do, because people who do what I want to do, don't do that. It's really our age. It feels like we missed some opportunity to do things the right way, but now it's too late.

If you're upset about your quality of life, it's virtually never because your country doesn't have enough capitalism. The UK needs a more progressive tax system, less corporate subsidies and more "handouts" for individual ETHNIC BRITONS. Socialism is good if it's done right.

When the state imposes tariffs on foreign imports, it forces you to purchase more expensive nationally-produced goods. When the state prints money and gives handouts, it devalues the currency. When the state taxes and imposes labyrinthine regulations upon production, it disincentivises production. When the state props up companies, it prevents the elites from being held accountable. When the state gives handouts, it incentivises non-production.

A capitalist system would be one in which there is free trade, little to no taxes, gold currency (or cryptocurrency) immune to inflation, and strict private property laws. Such a world would see untold prosperity and wealth.

I am so fucking tired of /lit/, yet I always get sucked back in.

I go to /tv/, they have actual discussions and funny memes. I go to /fit/, they have actual discussion and funny memes. I go to /sp/, they have actual discussions and funny memes.
/lit/ just has a bunch of quasi-suicidal loners who do nothing but posture all day.

For society. The only way a capitalist can make money is by exchanging goods and services for currency. You sell your currency to him, he sells his goods and services to you. With fierce competition, the only way he can remain profitable is if he provides better quality goods or produces them more efficiently (ie. more output per input) than others.

Hence once the gears of capitalism are put into motion, production gets optimised for efficiency and/or quality. This raises the marginal utility of labour, and you get a higher paid and wealthier population. Even if the actual wages do not rise, the very fact of increased efficiency means that there are more goods circulating in society, making them inevitably cheaper. Thus your purchasing power goes up, which is all that matters.

For example, say you have two farms producing carrots in a village. If farm A figures out a way to produce carrots more efficiently, that means he requires less resources to produce the same amount of carrots as farm B. Inevitably the price of carrots drops, and the villagers find their purchasing power increased, and therefore more effort can be put into production rather than consumption. Society becomes future-oriented.

But when you have state interference (inflation, taxation, regulation, handouts), you disincentivise production and incentivise consumption. Society becomes poorer and less civilised.

I don't regret everything. On one hand, what I've done hasn't satiated my ambition and that's made all the more hard to swallow by the fact that it was roughly close to what I might've wanted, but on the other hand, it's shown me what seems to be worthwhile, which is more than I had before. I'm sure there's a silver lining to being a NEET. In fact, I've talked to NEETs before and I notice that what they usually regret most is not that they didn't work or go to school, but that they didn't do much of anything. In other words, it's not that they had leisure that they hated, it's that they wasted their leisure. If that lesson could be learned, NEETing might be worthwhile. There have to be NEETs out there who have made the fact that they were NEETs work for them. And one day, there's going to be a good writer who was a NEET.

Yeah, that's a terrible byproduct. Ellul points it out too. Capitalism is part of a much bigger system that all needs changing. Not surprising since the Industrial Revolution changed a lot of things.

So here we are about to deindustrialize (and already people believe it's just going to be a government ploy and a completely fabricated ploy) or come up with nuclear fusion energy "in the next ten years or so" and continue down this socially poisonous path
