You're now watching two strangers discuss your question! Question to discuss: What will you do when you have only one week to live? Stranger 2: Travel Stranger 1: kill everyone on my shitlist Stranger 2: And die where mankind was born Stranger 1: where was mankind born? Stranger 2: Mesopotamia Stranger 1: I thought it was africa? Stranger 2: ... Stranger 1: Well either way should be easy Stranger 2: After travelling around the world that is Stranger 1: sand niggers or just niggers will eliminate you Stranger 1: desert or jungle Stranger 2: Actually not really Stranger 2: I don't understand why you say that Stranger 1: You wanna go to Iraq? Stranger 1: You think you won’t be kidnapped and beheaded? Stranger 1: dumbass Stranger 2: I don't give a fuck if I'm going to die soon? Stranger 1: yeah but what’s the point of lying down for someone else to do it? Stranger 2: Also it's not because you see they are all bad guys in your tv set that that's true Stranger 1: why not go out taking lives? At least that way you can control someone else’s fate Stranger 2: I'd actually even go to Iran for fun, nice places to visit there Stranger 1: Have some finality besides your own Stranger 2: Control? You control nothing Stranger 2: How is killing better? Stranger 1: Oh yeah? Stranger 2: You wouldn't know what you are doing Stranger 1: If I blast you in the face with a shotgun that’s control over your fate Stranger 2: Well that's suicide for you actually Stranger 2: And with your logic, everybody would kill everybody, for nothing Stranger 2: Interrupting a life is not controlling it, even then Stranger 1: Death isn’t logical it just is Stranger 1: actually I disagree Stranger 2: And life isn't a movie Stranger 1: All the world’s a stage and we are but actors Stranger 2: Well that's your opinion of it Stranger 1: Actually it’s shakespere’s Stranger 2: Doesn't mean it has to be universal, or better than another view Stranger 2: It's still a personnal view Stranger 1: I see no reason to believe otherwise Stranger 2: I don't see any reason to believe it either Stranger 2: Guess that's what a belief is Stranger 2: And that's why beliefs are not truth, they are beliefs, nothing more Stranger 1: Anyway, I’ll check off my shitlist and you can go get massacred by some habib Stranger 2: Again I don't see why they would do that to me Stranger 2: And who is on your shitlist anyway? Stranger 1: Okay let’s assume for just one second that you’re a) not a jew Stranger 1: b) not amerifag Stranger 2: I'm good so far Stranger 1: They’d still likely want to kill your ass because of the perception that western influence is the devil Stranger 2: Well actually America murdered their population twice already Stranger 2: Doesn't mean they are all like that Stranger 2: Just like other countries don't want to murder everybody coming from a country they have been in war with Stranger 1: And they wiped out entire races of europeans during the moorish conquests of europe Stranger 2: Maybe you want to go back in History? But I don't see what this means Stranger 1: I don’t really care that my country murdered them Stranger 1: that’s my point Stranger 1: history is just that Stranger 2: European countries also attacked in those places and wiped out many of them Stranger 2: And so what? If you don't care, why should they care about me? Stranger 1: I didn’t say I cared forever alone Stranger 2: They won't either, at least not all of them Stranger 1: I just was trying to understand why you’d want to visit such a nasty place Stranger 2: Actually Iraq has a lot of stuff (cultural wise) coming from the very birth of mankind Stranger 1: I’d rather go to idk, maybe Spain or someplace more temperate Stranger 2: Again, this is not because amerifats constantly show no mans land or ghetto that the entire country is like that Stranger 1: Okay I believe that’s true, but it doesn’t make me want to go Stranger 1: and guess what Stranger 1: I’m part habib Stranger 2: I don't ask you to want to go there Stranger 1: turkish and lebanese Stranger 2: Why does it change anything? Stranger 2: Did you go there? Stranger 1: But it doesn’t make me want to visit Stranger 1: Nope Stranger 2: Then it's irrelevant Stranger 1: No it is Stranger 2: Google image Isfahan Stranger 2: You'll understand what I mean Stranger 1: Because I have more direct connection to the place ancestrally but less interest than you apparently Stranger 2: It's actually more good looking that any construction the amerifats made Stranger 2: Well unless you went there, or are impregnated from their culture through your parents, it doesn't mean much Stranger 2: There are many immigrants from 2nd or 3rd generation that have no real connection with their ancestor's countries anymore, past what they believe about it Stranger 1: I’m 1/4 great grandfather and great grandmother were from there Stranger 1: so yeah means fuck all Stranger 1: But in fact I’m the only child out of 5 that ended up with an arab name Stranger 1: I don’t like it Stranger 2: That's normal, it's not really your country anymore Stranger 2: For several generations it seems Stranger 1: the pics of isfahan are interesting but I don’t know if I want to go there Stranger 2: I'm not making you want to go there Stranger 2: Just pointing out there are actually things to see for me Stranger 2: That are not related to war, butchery, or fanatism Stranger 1: Let’s say hypothetically I went there. Would they let me hop on my $4000 Italian bike and just ride around without bothering me? I doubt it Stranger 1: They’d probably either want to steal from me or kill me Stranger 1: maybe both Stranger 2: They have laws Stranger 2: If you respect their laws I don't see why they would attack you Stranger 1: That’s the only way I’d travel Stranger 1: by bicycle Stranger 2: Again, they are not bloodlust retarded fanatics amerifats tell you they are Stranger 1: Just unload at the airport, assemble it, and ride Stranger 2: Why not? Sounds like a good idea Stranger 2: I'd use a motorbike most likely Stranger 1: I’d assume it’s exaggerated of course but that doesn’t mean I’d be just as safe there as riding around in my own country/state/locale Stranger 1: Of course I like a little risk but not a ruined vacation or worse Stranger 2: Of course not, but you are not safe in many places either Stranger 2: Currently, if you go in some places in Athenes (Greece) you can get murdered for instance Stranger 1: Yeah Stranger 1: And that’s another European country I’d want to visit Stranger 2: Same for big cities like NY, Paris, St-Petersburg or whatever Stranger 1: Span and Greece for mountain biking Stranger 1: Spain* Stranger 1: The world’s a pretty big place from a bicycle Stranger 1: I can’t even explore my own backyard enough Stranger 1: Of course in California we’re as big as most European countries Stranger 2: Well USA are not really a country, more like Europe-sized Stranger 1: But getting back to the point. I don’t have a lot of money for some bucket list type thing if I knew I was gonna die, so I’d probably resort to venting my repressed hatred Stranger 1: If I had the cash? Sure I’d travel, feed some homeless, play jesus for a bit Stranger 1: Build a multibillion dollar computer company j/k Stranger 2: Who do you hate that much? Stranger 1: I don’t but it’s more a matter of what is repressed vs what can be achieved in a short period of time Stranger 2: Then, what's repressed that much for you? Stranger 1: Everyone represses things Stranger 2: I don't think you can really cure repressed things in a short timespan, at least not really Stranger 1: For you it’s a trip to mesopotamia for whatever reason Stranger 2: Repressed means over time usually Stranger 1: Yeah and I’d guess rightly you’ve wanted to go to that part of the world over time Stranger 2: I'd go there because I'm just trying to understand what the fuck I'm doing on this planet Stranger 1: I don’t have stupid expectations like that Stranger 1: I’ve never seen any evidence of understanding through death Stranger 1: or through the mad rush that comes as people try to reconcile themselves to it Stranger 1: it’s all bs Stranger 2: Those expectations are only stupid for you Stranger 1: I’d rather vent my feels Stranger 1: if love is too expensive to vent I choose hate Stranger 2: I didn't qualify your beliefs like that, even if I feel like a last rant is the stupid thing to do Stranger 1: For me it’s all about making an impact on this reality Stranger 2: Why? Stranger 2: When you'll be dead, nothing will last Stranger 1: That’s the whole point Stranger 2: Even if you kill 50 people in an explosion Stranger 2: Nobody will remember you Stranger 1: The kid at Sandy Hook? he killed because he had no other way to leave an impact Stranger 1: That’s not true Stranger 1: I remember the names of the kids who shot up Columbine and it was almost twenty years ago Stranger 2: Yep twenty years ago Stranger 2: History is far wider than this Stranger 1: Doesn’t matter Stranger 2: Your guys will only be a line on a book in 50 years Stranger 2: And nothing in 100 Stranger 1: It’s all about maximum impact of one’s actions Stranger 1: That’s a slippery slope argument Stranger 2: And why does "this" matter? Stranger 1: illogical Stranger 2: If nothing matters, showing off doesn't matter either, why would it? Stranger 1: I didn’t say nothing matters Stranger 2: Oh really? Tell me where the fallacy is then? Stranger 1: You did Stranger 2: You said: "It's all about maximum impact of one's actions", so yeah you did Stranger 2: And no I didn't, I said what mattered "to me" Stranger 2: Never said it was universal Stranger 2: I said it was my belief Stranger 1: The fallacy is that you’re arguing that ultimately over time all actions can be reduced to non-action, which is an argument against the validity of action within a finite amount of time Stranger 1: slippery slope argument Stranger 1: patently fallacious Stranger 2: Actually, I never said the actions never existed Stranger 2: I said over time the impact is reduced to nothing Stranger 1: I’m only arguing that the maximum that can be achieved in a week as per OPs dictum is best achieved through destruction and violence Stranger 2: You never said it's all about actions, you said it's all about impact Stranger 2: And so far, you didn't put any argument behind that Stranger 1: Maybe you should go to mesopotamia. The sand people might educate you Stranger 2: Irony isn't an argument either Stranger 1: That was an ad homeniem but I don’t care Stranger 2: I've agreed to say it's was your "belief" from the start Stranger 2: I said this was not mine Stranger 2: There is no argument to put up there Stranger 2: Why do you want to prove it's the right thing to do? Stranger 1: You’re a funny little brain Stranger 1: You think efficacy of action is necessarily a moral argument Stranger 2: At least I'm not trying to murder people for nothing, hah Stranger 2: I never said that Stranger 1: effectiveness or impact of action is amoral and has nothing to do with right or wrong Stranger 2: You are assuming I'm thinking that Stranger 1: You just asked me why I wanted to “prove” it’s the right thing to do Stranger 2: You are not trying to argue with me, you are trying to argue with a dumb projection of me you made Stranger 1: I never tried to prove right Stranger 2: Well what are you trying to do then? Stranger 2: You've stated you wanted to murder everybody from the start Stranger 1: Achieve maximum impact of actions that can be committed over the course of a single week Stranger 2: So far I only wanted to understand your reasoning, while you tried to argue to say your vision of things was the best Stranger 2: Yep, and even in raw "effectiveness", I still think there are better ways than just murdering people Stranger 1: That for me would be violence and destruction because I lack the resources to fundamentally impact this reality in complex ways Stranger 2: You could get them in one week in some domain if you stopped being a lazy ass then Stranger 1: better is a moral argument Stranger 2: Nope Stranger 2: Better on the scale of "effectiveness" Stranger 2: See you are the one bringing that back to morals, I never did it Stranger 2: I said "It doesn't match with my beliefs" Stranger 2: I never said it was bad in an universal way Stranger 1: You make no sense lol Stranger 1: do you smoke weed? Stranger 2: You trying to make it fall back on morals just make me think you are actually aware it's bad for your own system of beliefs Stranger 2: And that you want to be "bad-ass" one way or another Stranger 2: Not really Stranger 1: nope not at all Stranger 2: You not being able to understand it doesn't mean it's not clear Stranger 1: I get what you’re saying completely and understand your objections but they are existential feels and emotional quandaries for you. Stranger 1: I don’t have high expectations of living only for a week Stranger 2: How do you know what they are for me? You are not me. Stranger 2: That's what they are for "you" Stranger 2: But again, it's ok, we don't have the same beliefs Stranger 1: So I’ll kill people and break their spirit in order to satisfy my own internal feelings of inadequacy and impotency at being feeble and decidedly mortal in the face of death Stranger 2: I don't expect you to share mine and vice versa at this point Stranger 2: Here we are Stranger 2: It's no longer about "efficiency" as you stated it Stranger 2: it's about satisfying those feelings Stranger 1: Well no it actually is both Stranger 1: Your little trip will not amount to any remembrance because you’re dead Stranger 2: And here is what I said before, I don't think you will really satisfy those feelings truely by acting this way Stranger 2: Because life is not a movie Stranger 1: And my little destructive tirade will last a lot longer Stranger 1: My stone toss in the pond will make bigger ripples Stranger 1: Even if the net result is no ripple to reach the shore Stranger 2: I never said I wanted to leave something? Stranger 2: In your system of beliefs, showing off seems to be an important thing Stranger 2: Doesn't mean it's important for me Stranger 2: So yeah you'll probably shock more people than me by doing your things Stranger 2: So what? Stranger 1: Showing off? Is that how you see domination of others? Stranger 1: It’s just an animal thing man Stranger 2: It's important for you, not for me Stranger 1: You’re reading way too deep into it Stranger 2: You are the one talking about bigger ripples, not me Stranger 1: If I know I’m gonna die in a week I’m gonna be PISSED, not happy and ready to share my love with everyone because I hadn’t yet achieved the level of impact on the world I wanted Stranger 1: Maybe I never will Stranger 2: Well you not being happy or ready to share your love is not related to the amount of time you have to live Stranger 1: But the point is, I want to leave as lasting an impact as possible, even if death is ultimately victorious at silencing my actions forever with time at it’s command I still have that animal instinct to fight it Stranger 2: Then you would be an animal, not a man Stranger 2: Also we are back into the impact thing Stranger 1: men ARE animals lol Stranger 1: humans are mammals Stranger 1: mammals are animals Stranger 2: That's your view on this Stranger 1: it’s fact Stranger 2: Then what? We are all cells. Here we are. Stranger 2: You are what you want to be Stranger 1: Your feels and mine are brain chemistry Stranger 1: nothing more Stranger 1: I’m not suggesting disobey them or revolt Stranger 2: You are free to believe in materialism, this is not a problem for me Stranger 1: I’m not trying to make a moral argument out of this Stranger 2: Problem with that is that you are not only an animal Stranger 2: I don't either Stranger 2: You are free to believe what you want Stranger 2: The only thing I'm saying is that you want to effectively leave a mark while satisfying your murdering instincts Stranger 2: But I don't think both are possible at the same time Stranger 2: A real mark is left because of the difference you have with other people Stranger 2: People trying to murder others or suicide are not that rare Stranger 1: And I believe that in a limited time scenario like OPs I’d probably kill and destroy to achieve maximum impact over the short term, knowing that my intelligence, influence, and dominance in the material world were too compromised in order to leave impacts in more complex ways (such as love, art, innovation, etc.) Stranger 2: This is a state of mind Stranger 2: Your life is limited, you just have more time Stranger 1: Look dude, neither of us are Steve Jobs okay? We won’t change history by being clever or by intellectual preponderance Stranger 1: We’re not going to go out like that Stranger 1: The greatest contribution we have are our fuckups Stranger 2: Steve Jobs isn't a model for me, but speak for yourself. I can change things. Stranger 1: Our ability to magnify them Stranger 2: I've heard that so many times Stranger 2: "I can't be good for the world, so let's be the worst possible" Stranger 1: The greater the magnitude, the greater the impact we leave Stranger 2: You are not getting me with your feelings Stranger 2: Impact is your thing, not mine Stranger 1: Steve Jobs isn’t a role model? But it’s right inline with OPs scenario Stranger 1: Steve knew he was gonna die for at least six years Stranger 2: The only thing I have in this world is me and my honor, you are free to do what you want with yours Stranger 2: And still, this is not a model for me Stranger 1: he exerted himself in productive and creative ways to build the company he wanted. Stranger 2: He stole most of his so called innovations Stranger 1: Honor is an illusion created by want and lack of necessity Stranger 2: And ended up selling overpriced things made in particularly horrible conditions by asian slaves Stranger 1: When necessity comes calling honor is lost Stranger 2: Leaving a mark is an illusion to me, honor is an illusion to you, that's fine Stranger 1: You’re just spending too much time navel gazing and isolating yourself Stranger 2: Actually this is wrong Stranger 2: Honor is doing the right choice Stranger 2: Not being able to have a choice have nothing to do with honor Stranger 1: we’re all slaves bro Stranger 1: Slaves to governments Stranger 1: bosses Stranger 1: biology Stranger 1: genes Stranger 1: We’re slaves Stranger 1: Even the ecosystem is slavery Stranger 2: When it comes about genes and biology, it's not true Stranger 1: You’re a moralfag too Stranger 2: When it comes to bosses and governments you are right Stranger 2: But you are a slave because you accept to be a slave Stranger 1: You think your system of ethics is freedom from something but it’s slavery too Stranger 2: And you are a betafag Stranger 2: You have no idea what freedom is Stranger 2: You have ways to get out of work and government slavery Stranger 2: But you need to find them Stranger 1: You actually think your feels on honor set you free but trying to get the right feels in order to be happy is part of the slavery Stranger 2: I never said honor set me free Stranger 2: It's not related Stranger 1: Yeah whatev Stranger 1: You’re chasing happiness Stranger 1: That’s your right as an American I concede that Stranger 1: But it’s just more slavery Stranger 2: Well I'm denying short happiness to impact me actually Stranger 2: And I'm not American Stranger 1: The reason I don’t kill is the same reason you preserve honor Stranger 1: laws Stranger 2: But I know how the system works Stranger 1: also illusions Stranger 2: Not really Stranger 2: I preserve honor to not feel bad later Stranger 1: cultural Stranger 1: social Stranger 2: Contrary to what people see in movies, killing somebody haunts you one day or another Stranger 1: People can be taught to feed bad about treating others with honor Stranger 1: stanford prison experiment Stranger 1: google it Stranger 2: You can be taught to feel bad about things that right Stranger 1: it’s just what you’re taught man Stranger 2: It doesn't mean you can't fight it by looking objectively at reality when you are grown Stranger 1: but if you look deep - I mean really deep down Stranger 2: But it will make you work hard for nothing at first Stranger 1: You’re a wannabe murdering sonnafabitch just like me Stranger 2: Not really Stranger 2: I'm not saying I don't understand how dying in a fight can be great Stranger 1: then you haven’t dug deep enough or been dug up Stranger 2: But murdering isn't related to this Stranger 2: Bloodlust is not the most primal emotion Stranger 2: Fear is Stranger 2: Seems I dig deeper than you Stranger 1: anger is more useful than fear Stranger 1: seems I figured out more than you Stranger 2: It's not about being useful, it's about being primal Stranger 2: You talked about depth Stranger 2: You are trying to escape again Stranger 2: Fear is the primal emotion, not anger Stranger 1: nope Stranger 2: When you have the biggest foe in front of you and understand you can't do shit, what happens? Stranger 2: You run away, and you know it. Stranger 1: nothing stays afraid forever without finally going into a rage Stranger 1: fear drives animals insane Stranger 2: In movies, probably. Stranger 1: in reality fact Stranger 1: what happens? You become the foe Stranger 2: Actually, once again, when a real inevitable danger appears, there is fear, not anger Stranger 2: Anger is when you have a chance to fight back and the foe is attacking something you care for Stranger 2: Let's say some thug is breaking your car Stranger 2: You may be angry and hit him Stranger 2: 10 huge thugs with weapons doing the same? You piss in your pants. And you know it. Stranger 1: No you just calculate an escape Stranger 1: and no I don’t know it Stranger 2: Reality is that murderer-wannabes don't do shit in real life Stranger 2: They are the first ones to bow Stranger 2: At least in my experience Stranger 2: I have several friends like that Stranger 2: They are always betas in real life Stranger 1: and I’m sure your anecdotes are most instructive lol Stranger 2: And always the most cruel and sadistic people behind their computer Stranger 1: Lemmie tell you about this betafag Stranger 2: I can't talk further than my experiences, I shouldn't either Stranger 1: since you’re trying to qualify me by invidious companions Stranger 2: I'm not trying to qualify you Stranger 2: I'm trying to qualify that kind of behavior Stranger 1: bullshit Stranger 2: And then you start being mad, not sure why. Stranger 1: I’m a triathlete Stranger 1: I was in the navy Stranger 2: This isn't relevant to anything. Stranger 1: I was based in Korea for six years Stranger 2: You could be Chuck Norris I wouldn't care. Stranger 2: Ad hominem isn't an argument one way or the other. Stranger 1: I can run circles around all your friends you compare me to Stranger 2: And you trying to be a badass has no impact on me. Stranger 1: I own several firearms Stranger 2: If I wanted to be evil towards you, I would mock you, but I'm just asking you to stop this Stranger 1: I’m not bullshiiting or trying to win an internet debate Stranger 2: Well you obviously have a problem then Stranger 2: You told me you couldn't leave any impact on this world because you were not special Stranger 1: I’m happily married, have three dogs and a nice family Stranger 2: Now you are telling me you are Stranger 1: There is no fucked up childhood Stranger 2: So obviously, you are either lying, or not so happy Stranger 1: I’m satisfied and happy enough Stranger 1: But I don’t chase happiness like you Stranger 1: I’m not a fool though I’ve been fooled around a few times Stranger 2: Else since you are special (from what you said) you can leave a better mark (since it's your goal) than the basic human - animal Stranger 1: No I can’t Stranger 2: I'm not chasing happiness, but I think you do Stranger 1: I’m not a genius Stranger 2: You mentionned it several times already, even if I clearly answered Stranger 1: I’m not a world class athlete Stranger 2: Then do a one week marathon? Stranger 2: It's your last week, you don't give a fuck anyway Stranger 1: I’m not a corporate hedgehog or a CEO just middleman Stranger 2: You have a family that is nice? Why not doing things with them? Stranger 1: decent salary Stranger 1: nothing to brag about Stranger 2: You are a slave. Stranger 1: nice home but again Stranger 1: pretty standard compared to the Jones around me Stranger 2: You enslaved yourself, and now it's going after you. Stranger 2: And here comes all the repressed stuff. Stranger 1: It’s reality kid Stranger 1: wake up Stranger 1: you’re not gonna do anything or change anything either Stranger 2: You are funny. Stranger 2: I'm young that's right. Stranger 2: I'm already financially independent Stranger 2: For like...a good amount of time Stranger 1: I’m decent at everything I do. Above average but not great Stranger 1: That’s my plight Stranger 2: I don't come from a rich family Stranger 2: And I'm working on my phd Stranger 2: So yeah, I will change things Stranger 1: I went to college after the navy and got a degree too Stranger 1: Doesn’t mean squat Stranger 2: I don't care if people "recognize me", but I will indeed change things Stranger 1: I have a masters degree it got me a decent job Stranger 1: That’s about it Stranger 2: Masters degree are bought nowadays Stranger 2: That's why I'm going further Stranger 1: You will change things eh? Stranger 2: Not to say "I've got a degree" Stranger 2: But to meet real people Stranger 2: Not slaves. Stranger 1: You’re an idiot kid lol Stranger 2: As you are now, you are formatted to see everything as slavery Stranger 1: there are no real people just various levels of torture Stranger 2: Yet you seem to think your instincts are the freedom Stranger 2: That's your vision of it Stranger 2: And it's sad Stranger 1: Your idea of “real” is some haji living in poverty who takes you in because you’re a fascinating wonder monkey from the west Stranger 1: you make me laugh for real Stranger 2: Look, the only thing you can change is yourself Stranger 2: Real? Nope Stranger 2: That's what you think I think Stranger 1: I got you made kid Stranger 2: If you think so, and if it makes you feel better in your everyday slave life, then it's better than nothing Stranger 1: You’re just some leftist feels moralfag with a hatred for human nature and an idealized view of what it’s supposed to be Stranger 1: you haven’t lived long enough Stranger 2: Real is just about following your system of beliefs after you thought about it in a neutral way Stranger 1: You haven’t seen enough Stranger 2: Leftist? Stranger 1: Oh yeah Stranger 2: Now you are the funny one Stranger 1: At the root of your thinking is collectivism Stranger 2: Leftist and rightist doesn't mean anything nowadays Stranger 2: Wrong, I'm only thinking about myself Stranger 1: you’re not a pragmatist or individualist, and if you pretend to be you’re a subversive Stranger 2: I do think most people are completely stupid Stranger 1: I understand what they both mean under the surface Stranger 2: But I've met "real" clever people Stranger 1: They’re euphemisms Stranger 2: I don't see how I could be anything else than individualist Stranger 2: Since everything is based on my perception Stranger 2: Changing your perception of the world is changing the world Stranger 2: But you can't understand until you actually do it Stranger 2: This is the sad part Stranger 1: Well it’s like this okay: Honor is a social creation brought about by collectivist ideals about what is right and true in society. Stranger 1: You think you’re practicing “to thine own self be true” Stranger 1: But you’re not Stranger 2: I defined what was honor for me already, to be sure we were talking about the same thing Stranger 2: And it's not that Stranger 2: I'm not looking for happiness Stranger 2: But I need to avoid pain on the long run Stranger 2: And this is the only way to do it Stranger 1: You’re denying that your fundamental cause for honor is to simply excuse behavior Stranger 2: My fundamental cause for honor is to not feel bad about my actions over time, nothing more Stranger 2: I'm denying your conception of honor, probably Stranger 2: But it's not mine, so there is no harm done Stranger 2: This is where you do the difference between real people and formatted slaves by the way Stranger 1: So open your mind a bit. Isn’t that what you wanted to do by visiting foreign lands? Stranger 2: Real people I met were sometimes really different from me with really odd system of beliefs, yet coherent Stranger 1: Because by opening up you’ll realize you can do anything and feel just fine about it Stranger 1: Or feel nothing at all Stranger 2: But I could always talk to them without them trying to alienate me like you are trying to do now Stranger 2: Actually I wanted to do this as a way to unlock things in my mind Stranger 2: And I'm open minded to pretty much anything Stranger 2: Me saying something that "almost looks like some common thing" doesn't mean I never thought about it Stranger 2: If anything I think I'm more open minded and free than you Stranger 1: Then don’t automatically reject the notion that killing or violence is somehow more ineffectual than running off to see exotic lands Stranger 2: I'm not saying that out of the blue, I'm just using what you said yourself Stranger 2: You still didn't get it right? Stranger 2: I don't care about "being effective in leaving a mark" Stranger 2: That's why I didn't even consider this Stranger 2: However what I did consider is that "if I try to be you for one moment" I realize there are more effective ways to do so Stranger 2: You are the close minded one by only consider this Stranger 2: ing* Stranger 2: Now if you were really considering murder as something like anything else, you'd not only consider it Stranger 1: I’ll give you one more chance to make sense to me, because a) I don’t believe you when you say you don’t care after saying you’ll “change things” and b) this angle your taking re effectiveness of ones actions doesn’t make sense on it’s face. Stranger 2: But the way you do it looks like you would feel happy by breaking a taboo you set on yourself Stranger 1: Goddamn right I would. wouldn’t YOU? Stranger 2: I don't have to take your chance, it's up to you to understand, I'm only clarifying what you ask me Stranger 2: For your first thing Stranger 2: You are assuming I want to change things for others Stranger 2: You didn't even consider I could want to change things to get more grasp on my perception Stranger 2: For your second, can you reformulate? Stranger 1: so take some peyote Stranger 1: big fucking deal Stranger 1: go get your mind wrecked Stranger 1: You’ll come back here eventually Stranger 1: same damn conundrum Stranger 2: I don't really see why I should do that Stranger 2: You seem to be in need for an escape Stranger 1: You want to change your perception right? Stranger 2: Without being able to find it Stranger 1: I have a need to effect things Stranger 2: I can't really change my perception, and this isn't what I meant either Stranger 2: I need to know how my perception is an illusion and how it's not Stranger 1: I’m tired, I rode a bike today and ran. Tomorrow I go to the gym after work and train with guys who are stronger than me. In my idle time I’m here Stranger 1: Effecting things Stranger 1: as much as I can Stranger 1: And you know what I noticed? Stranger 2: And actually since all of this is my perception, that also means this world is mine Stranger 2: You are effecting things on Omegle? I'm curious about this really. Stranger 1: The internet is more useful as a tool of disruption and disinfo than providing any useful content Stranger 1: I got three other conversations going Stranger 2: Internet is a different source of information Stranger 1: My macbook is great I just speak and my words appear :) Stranger 2: You could have 100 more I still wouldn't get how you are impacting things on Omegle Stranger 2: Internet is not meant to be used like a standard medium Stranger 1: For example I might have convinced a 13yr old to run away from her parents Stranger 1: And another guy was asking me what he should do when he graduates and I got him interested in the navy Stranger 2: If you want to use it, you have to take all divergent informations and make a spectrum out of it Stranger 1: Even though the navy almost ruined my life Stranger 2: Run away from her parents? Why so? Stranger 1: She’s been saying they won’t let her see her 19yr old boyfriend Stranger 1: fancy that Stranger 2: Looks like you got trolled if you ask me. Stranger 1: No I have her fb Stranger 1: It’s real Stranger 2: Troll fb exist also Stranger 2: You don't know if it's real until you see her. Stranger 1: We’ll see she wants me to Skype Stranger 1: derp Stranger 2: "You" will see Stranger 2: I have no interest in that Stranger 1: You don’t think I know that? Stranger 1: And how do you know you’re not being trolled? Stranger 2: I think you are making up many things, and there are many people making up things also Stranger 2: Actually I know it's a possibility Stranger 1: But you persist Stranger 2: But, like the internet, there are ways to not be affected by that Stranger 1: EXACTLY Stranger 1: Not be affected Stranger 1: cie la vie Stranger 1: Now you’re getting it Stranger 2: I'm persisting in doing what? Stranger 1: And starting to understand where I’m coming from Stranger 2: I didn't mean emotionnally Stranger 2: I just understand you don't get concepts are also bound to a space of application Stranger 2: When I say not affected Stranger 2: I don't mean not emotionnally affected Stranger 2: I mean statistically Stranger 2: You should try some signal processing course Stranger 1: well you’ll get burnt out of those too Stranger 2: You'd get what I mean Stranger 1: You’re still young Stranger 2: Burnt out of what? Stranger 1: emotional affectations Stranger 2: How do you know I didn't think about that either Stranger 1: Once your brain chemistry settles down you’ll find life mostly emotionally monotonous Stranger 2: I said not being affected was about statistics in that case Stranger 2: I never said I "could" be emotionnally affected by such a thing Stranger 2: I already find it monotonous Stranger 2: That's because emotions are not the thing to follow Stranger 2: Just like instincts are not the thing to follow either Stranger 1: why the fuck not? Stranger 2: That's why something related to a basic instinct as a last life move sounds silly to me Stranger 2: That's exactly the same thing Stranger 1: wrong Stranger 2: You don't know anything about me or about what I did Stranger 2: You have unsatisfied instincts Stranger 1: when I want to fuck trust me bro it’s not an emotional component of my being Stranger 2: So you think instincts are different Stranger 1: absolutely Stranger 2: Reality is that over time, instincts can be satisfied just like feelings Stranger 1: emotions are thought reactions to instincts Stranger 1: They’re sort of an osmosis Stranger 2: The only difference "for you" is that you satisfied your emotions but not your instincts Stranger 2: Emotions are not thoughts Stranger 1: Wrong they arise out of thinking Stranger 1: If you don’t think you don’t feel Stranger 1: Except sensation Stranger 2: They are just in a layer of your brain, a different one Stranger 1: Which triggers instinct Stranger 2: Well actually, they don't arise from thinking, not fully Stranger 2: You are free to think what you want Stranger 1: My wife is home I’m gonna go fill my belly with good food, fuck and call it a night Stranger 2: But I know that instincts have the same nature about monotony than emotions Stranger 2: I don't need to prove it to you Stranger 2: That's why I understood it was not the way Stranger 1: You got a your comeuppance Stranger 2: And I didn't get your sentence Stranger 2: Just remember you live in the planet you chose Stranger 1: in? Stranger 2: If you live in violence and slavery, you will die chained and violated Stranger 1: Am I subterranean now? Stranger 2: But you already feel that, right? Stranger 2: You are what you want to be Stranger 1: you’ll figure this out later when you’ve had enough repeat experiences Stranger 2: I don't need to repeat experiences Stranger 1: That you are chained and violated every day of your life no matter what your perception is Stranger 1: Such is death my friend Stranger 2: That's the point to me, get an experience, process it, never live it again Stranger 1: It’s why we die Stranger 1: But that’s another debate Stranger 2: You are violated each day because you are a slave Stranger 2: You can choose not to be Stranger 1: You’re in the same boat don’t rock it Stranger 1: or rock it and try to tip it over maybe I’ll join ya Stranger 2: But you are lazy, because at the end of the day, you are not sad enough to change things ;) Stranger 1: we’ll drown but it might be fun Stranger 2: You shouldn't follow Stranger 2: If you want to try, try it Stranger 2: Don't follow, find your way Stranger 1: I’m happy enough to accept things as they are and not try to change what is beyond the scope of daily life Stranger 2: You accept what you want to accept, and so do I Stranger 2: Then you live your life...daily Stranger 1: contingent upon death being an uncertain certainty Stranger 2: And if it's okay for you, fine by me Stranger 2: Well it's all about beliefs Stranger 1: It’s not Stranger 1: Hasta Stranger 1 has disconnected
