  • @Voight? This is incredible, either you’re @Voight or I attract a really specific brand of weirdo that makes wild deductions from extremely broad statements, has an obsession with being more intelligent than other people, splits their near instant replies into 3-5 posts, and is totally going to move to Veitnam any day now.

    Edit: Oh, and the obsession with some sort of elite class of website regulars who are conspiring against you.


  • Wow, I can tell you’re real smart, putting two and two together like that. A thread about gender identity and a revival of the /r/CTH “everyone is my alt” meme. Only an incredibly logical mind could look at those and deduce that all the owls are one person.
    Why are you even here? You made an account, disappeared for 2 weeks, and then came back to announce you were giving the site one last chance to keep you. Why would we want to keep you? Did you get the impression that the site with communities like ChapoTrapHouse and FakeNews is some kind of major centre of leftist organising?
    Go touch some grass and stop making up owl conspiracies, you’re just being weird.






  • hey remember back under the brave and heroic obama when a bunch of justices wouldn’t admit they might be old as fuck and about to implode and refused to retire, and then they died and Trump got to appoint everyone?

    You claim that you’re not willing to gamble, but the democrats are, so if you support them you must be too. No matter which side you support, there is no reason to believe that the one you choose won’t either actively engage in or enable further fascistisation of the USA. There’s a reason we keep telling you they are working together towards the same goals.

    >fights off 5 ringwraiths while protecting a gang of hobbits
    >kills like a hundred magically engineered supersoldiers so hobbits can cross a river
    >kills an unreasonable number more at Helm’s Deep
    >beats up an actual ghost
    >just one of those supersoldiers could easily kill like 10 regular humans, but here he is again just mowing them down
    >charges the entirety of mordor on foot: survives

    But yeah, I’m sure the regular human of above average skill will be fine.




  • people, including yourself, literally don’t exist as conscious beings, and are merely flesh-robots deterministically reacting to their environment according to physical rules. anyone’s perceptions of pain, or literally anything else, are nonexistent.

    If we’re all just quantum interactions inevitably leading to the appearance of consciousness, that still makes us real. Whatever we think, even if there is no truly free willed “consciousness” powering it, those thoughts are still happening. They are physical processes that can be measured and have an observable effect on the universe. Even if it’s because of particle interactions preordained since the big bang, we still feel the pain. There might ultimately be no point to our existence and no real choices that we can make, but that only makes our choices illusory, not our experiences. There is still a point to improving your quality of life, and it’s simply that you like that. There is a point to improving other’s quality of life, and it’s simply that they like that. You may not have ever truly had a choice about it, but those processes definitely still happen. You can declare that it’s all pointless because you were destined to never do anything, or you can loudly declare that it was preordained by the natural processes of the universe when people ask why you’re sticking googly eyes on all the door handles.
    It’s honestly weird that we always talk about people being a product of their conditions but as soon as it comes to metaphysics people start going “but what if we’re special and not really a product of our conditions”.
