By realizing that those spooks were installed in your consciousness by institutions that have economic and political interests in keeping you subservient to them and the mode of production that sustains them, and the people in your life who have negatively sanctioned you for not adhering to said spooks live horrid existences centered around the reproduction of capital and simply bluff to feel less bad about themselves.

Hello everyone. I'd like to inform you that optimism is dumb. Like, really dumb.
Optimism is essentially a yielding to the most basic temptation - to want things to be better than they are because of attachment, and to then adjust your worldview, to the exclusion of contradictory facts, in order to accommodate this viewpoint. Among those in the trenches this tendency could be forgiven; among westerners, not actively engaged in combat, merely offering analysis, this tendency is unreasonably stupid. It's not wrong for those at a distance to be attached to the fates of others; this is correct. However, it is wrong for those who are at a distance to align their projections with those who are experiencing war up close when those at a distance have an opportunity to detach their analysis from emotion and be more objective.

In essence, if your family and friends aren't being killed around you right this very minute, you don't have to make your projections based on a faith that justice will come. In fact, if you are in the west, it's imperative that you don't make your projections based on a faith that some other will overcome the destructive power of US empire. You don't have to be totally stoic, but your analysis should strive to be stoic rather than being shaped by your emotional attachment to a certain cause. Again, the sin here is not the acceptance that some outcomes are better than others, the sin is not to be attached to the creation of better outcomes, the sin is to allow that attachment to create in you a delusion that the best outcomes are the most likely ones. To combat this sin, it is best to be pessimistic, to presume that the worst outcomes are the most likely ones, to acknowledge that bad things are happening constantly and that this is the reality on which you must shape your worldview.

Pessimism should not be confused with defeatism; this conflation is, frankly, also very stupid. Pessimism is a recognition of reality, a baseline perspective from which being wrong can only be good, and this viewpoint prepares the individual to go up against the worst of odds, understanding without fear that by not doing so failure & death would be the only certain outcomes. By accepting how bad it really is, by accepting that failure is the most likely outcome of anything and death is the only certain outcome, a rational Post too long.

Nothing to do in here, nothing to do outside.
Therapists offer empty advice. Most people can't relate, or are too frightened to admit that they relate to this feeling of emptyness. Their behavior is understandable; if you say how you really feel, people call you a downer, they act offended that you could feel so bad, they act offended that anyone's experience could differ so much from their own. The social consequences of honesty are often effective at encouraging lies. You get ostracized if your experience doesn't line up with the expectations others have cultivated for how the world works. If you aren't motivated by the things they expect everyone to be motivated by, they don't believe you. So people hide it, most of the time, they try as hard as they can to push it down so that even if they feel the same way that you do, the impression given is that you are alone.

When the acceptable outlets for this fail, as they often do, there is no accepted course of action. There's just emptyness. "Depression" as it's popularly defined today doesn't even describe it - people today think depression is a brief interruption to an ordinary pattern of self-worth. That sounds like a joke, but it's what polite society accommodates. There's no room for people who never feel good about themselves or about anything else, but there's also no room for meaningful action. Try for a peaceful exit, and people will act scared and maybe throw some empty platitudes or already-failed advice at you. Express a will to use your lack of desire to live constructively, and people who claim to want change will turn away. For them, every desire for action can only be accepted at the stage of catharsis. They are such aggressive do-nothings that they can't even fathom that anyone would do anything else. You're supposed to value your life… you're supposed to sit around consuming slop, pretending like you don't just want to die all the time. The "happy" life, the "constructive" life, is to still work but to accomplish nothing, to fear death because you are waiting to die.

It's so strange to me.

My friend, you can only live by turning away from the institutions and recognizing they were never yours. Yes, you'll live while being choked to death while assholes go hog wild plundering everything you would have valued in a better world. Tyring to fix what is unfixable, which aided and abetted the problem, is a Sisyphean task. It's not that the institutions are passively incompetent. They're designed to make the world this shitty, but when you try to better yourself, oh boy, they're on the spot to make sure you fail. It's always like that if you were selected to die. If you're selected to live, you literally can't fail. They'll throw you in a sinecure if you're worthless, and that's where people like Yud and the technophile cultists come from - incompetents given a sinecure where they can tell us how smart and great they are. Many such cases!

Knowing the truth doesn't liberate you, but it is very liberating to no longer lie to yourself about the world or what your eyes see. The hard part is that when you make that decision, you really are cast out of the world, and the institutions REALLY don't like you. That's when it moves from the passive excuses to overt humiliation and contempt if you dare try to work with them on anything. They don't want us to have ANYTHING. They don't want you to have a textbook and will destroy your books if you're "not allowed" to learn - unless those books are full of lies and intended to poison and retard you, while the "smart people" are pulled aside and given the cheat sheet to guarantee success. That's how these fucking Fabians and Germanics roll. Stupid, stupid people who love the smell of their own farts.

I wouldn't be so sure, chinese communist theory is not that far off orthodox marxism as it might appear at first. They maintain that it's only possible to make the change to a socialist mode of production irreversible if the capitalist mode of production has exhausted all the material conditions that allowed it to reproduce it self. That's definitly a possible interpretation of what marx wrote.

They're letting capitalists have a longer leesh as long as they devellope the productive forces. But if they threaten to harm social-outcomes or undermine chinese devellopment goals, the cpc acts as decisive as historic communist movements have. In the west most capitlists turned towards neo-liberal parasitic behavior that drains the life out of societies. If that's universally the case for capitalists and the chinese cull them one at a time, at the pace they go bad, then at the end of this process what's left standing, will be the chinese workers, the chinese communist party and a handfull of ethical capitalists. Spending well over a hundred years in socialist transition mode just to make sure it can't ever be undone once it's finished, is probably the most hardass thing anybody has ever done, but at the same time they are spilling very little blood doing it. When they're done with this stage they'll likely have a domminant socialist planning system with a small legacy market, and nobody will contest it because every capitalist that they crushed along the way, will have been caught doing really reprehensible things for maxing wealth and power. Their slow path might also make their system accumulate the features that immunizes against every possible attackvector the bourgoise can come up with.

That said, it obviously it's not a done deal, and the future is not yet written.

This so much. I would never wish this on anyone.

Of course, "autism" is a political diagnosis. If the diagnosis was brain inflammation or something other people did in the past, that is something that allowed the "retard" agency to change his situation. "Autism" is absolute autism score 0, the creation of living abortions. They don't want you to have anything, ever.

So much of "autism" is nothing more than a description of the most abject slave, a living abortion, a ritual sacrifice, and nothing more. They don't care what actually happens within us, or want us to exist at all. They only want a world of people as Satanic at them, who live for the thrill of torture. That's "normal" under eugenics.

I don't think that you can blame testosterone for a lower life expectancy. It's unclear what you mean but you could be understood to imply castration as a medical measure for increasing life expectancy. That's not acceptable.

The class-divide in life expectancy is a larger factor than most biological factors. (outside of stuff like congenital deseases and so on).

By the way Evel Knievel was an adrenaline junkie, pretty much anybody can get addicted to that rush. I think that if we make realistic enough simulated experiences, this kind of behavior can be channeled into non destructive avenues. Think base jumpig in the holodeck.

I wouldn't cut a single nut off me if it meant I could live forever without complaints, I love them too much. Look at black and white pictures of Chinese eunuchs post nut-theft and they're crying. But test making you take more risks is the usual explanation I hear for why women live longer

That actually does make sense too, men are the ones expected to do the harder work too

They don't even call themselves that any more - they try out new slogans and memes and they all are shit, but by producing more and more shit, they make more shit for the shit god, more puke for the puke throne.

Anyway, there hasn't been a substantive "left" for a long time. What they wound up doing in the Soviet Union diverged from "leftism" and was trying to maintain international relevance without any real idea or goal except survival. You can't blame them - history gave them a shitty deal. They really had a hard time holding it together outside of the core, and they were running on defeating the Nazis for as long as they could. So, "the left" as an oppositional force against the ruling interests or even something that could contest it was pretty well dead by the 1970s. The last embers of it were extinguished during the 1960s and it was pretty quickly papered over with the student movement, because that was the core of the left and they got everything they wanted by promoting their institution above everything else. The last avenues for the working class to conceive of a world where they could be anything but oppressed serfs would be cut, and the institutions became so alien to them that it's like dealing with an alien species - and this is the intended effect of so much that happened in the past century.

That said, the left and right still "exist" - that is still the core contention in the political arena. The right won so hard that it hurts, but the left still exists as the loyal opposition to be kicked around, and there isn't a divergent thought from anything that has been permitted in the global discourse. The replacement of leftism and rightism with ideology and feels > reals warped the historical positions of the right and left, and it has been a deliberate mindfuck to "give" the right populist and anti-institutional positions while saddling the center-left and left proper with the association with eugenics, population control, and these institutions that nearly everyone recognizes as the chief threat in their life. The right in all final decisions will rally behind the institutions - they merely insist on purging them of any "left" elements, and for the vanguard, they thought Eisenhower was a far leftist, to give you an idea of how much the right pushes its agenda. Pretty much everything they call "politics" today has nothing to do with the genuine animal, or the actual positions of the right and left, but the struggle to conPost too long.
