@LuciferGroyper If the community doesn't 'exist' then neither is there any reality to Achilles' 'virtue' since that presupposes a susbatantive form of ethical life in which it operates.

[V O I D @TeddyThalmann]

This sort of epistemic humility gesturing is similar to the rhetorical rejection of power by prospective popes, "i'm not worthy" etc. - a ritualized display of conventional virtues that means nothing. In practice these people claim to know the essence of the world all the same

as i get older i realize the biggest epidemic is dudes with no real identity

if running gets cool they become runners. if tattoos get cool they cover themselves in tattoos. if being sober trends they become born again monks, mullet, coffee snob, golfer, carnivore, cowboy, whatever the algorithm tells them

whole personality built out of social contagion

thats why these dudes get smoked at everything. everyone can smell the fraud

no weight behind anything they do because none of it came from their soul. just trend hopping

be something real even if its ugly

A significant reason that Christianity is false, also a significant reason it is popular and enduring, is that it lets you spiritually bypass the process of dialectic.

It claims the answers matter more than the questions. This is false, and it falsely elevates rote pablum into an idol far more spiritually noxious than even the most lurid animist fetish-totem.

The process of dialectic is sacred. Every incomplete answer builds up the eye of the soul and propels it towards the truth. When you subject man to an imposed authority which, if it doesn't punish dialectic, at the least strongly claims that it is irrelevant and unnecessary to the health of the soul, THAT is when you get the confusion and the "backslide down the other side of the mountain" you describe.

@fish_groyper This grumpy fun-policing would earn a lot of applause at the bingo hall. Fear of life, risk and novelty are at the bottom of this sterile hall-monitoring.

"It is a well-known feature of Latin literary history that, as far as we know, from the beginning to the end not one of its important figures, whether poets or prose writers, hailed from the city of Rome."

'masculine' posting is about either how much weight you can lift after your girlfriend cucks you or videotaping literal play-time where you're pretending to die like a gay blade runner

@creation247 'No legacy'--you're talking about him 150 years after he was alive, whereas your great grandkids won't even know your first name.
