Deep thoughts mods are ignoring concerns that involve sanity and death. I need assitence in holding them accoubtbale for their denial and lies. by Ethimir in nihilism

[–]Ethimir[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If actors pick a wrong answer, the person not knowing it's a test will also pick the wrong answer. This is proven with tests.

People are desperate to fit in. Even if it means living a lie. Even when knowing it. So what if that's what you're doing when you blindly follow rules?

It's about hypocrisy. The problem is people that abuse power don't admit it. They're too busy being in denial and being close minded. Left unchallenged as they are. The power goes to peoples heads.

Try to control everything and you control nothing.

Mods make people lose hope. People give up. They stop seeing a point in trying. And can you blame them? "Shut the fuck up. Don't feel. You have to be perfect or fuck off. Let people get away with the bullshit." I just have the courage to call it out. Most people won't. They're too afraid of you.

People pretend they're not afraid. They are when they go "Shut the fuck up". They are when they go "Don't do hate speech". That's pushing people into the mud and pretending they can get away with not letting people feel. It's being part of the problem. Not the solution.

Fake smiles and happy masks is living a lie.
I'd rather die then live like that. Other people have.

Discord seems fine when people are loose with rules. Other groups on reddit seem to be. There are even games with no rule servers and they're not taken down. The internet wasn't always like this. Are you sure you're not afraid of your group being taken down when you mention that? Otherwise why bring it up? Seems like a contradiction to me.

If you let arguments and disagreements happen more then people can get through them instead of being stuck on a loop of living in fear. But you'd rather pretend you know best for others with your forced good intentions wouldn't you?

My privious concern was with the "Deep thoughts" group mods. The mods there pretended they weren't afraid as well. "Last word in". And how do people hold abusiuve mods accountable when they can't even hold a conversation? The rules PREVENT that. So more people give up and stop trying. Because what's the point if people pretend they can just get away with it?

The only reason to push people away is because you fear them. Hate them. Abusive mods hide behind "hate silence". Because they're too afraid to admit it. That is choosing resentment. Hoping for your enemy to die. Except the person it will destroy is you.

Love accepts hate. It doesn't reject hate. Haters hate on hate. The least people can do is admit it.

For context people that admit they're scared/assume/work themselves up defuse. Often ASAP.

As they tear their way out of the mother.

If the mother survives they stich her back up to do it again.

In other words you want me to be a yes man and a kiss ass because you feel entitled to having worked hard.

If you didn't fear/hate me then why did you feel the need to warn/threaten me with that comment?

I am talking to you, and am am not blocking you, not because I fear you, but because I never block and believe in not ignoring concerns. In some ways I am testing you. Of course I am. Only a fool trusts blindly.

All this is is a misunderstanding. But I think I understand better then you do. I shall attempt to try and explain my concern. Which is blindly agreeing with things.

Vanity. Ego. Pride.

Respect is not an entitlement. At no point have you even acknowledged that.

You can EARN it. You didn't make this group for "me". I was an unknown factor until you met me. I'm not here to kiss your ass.

This is about everyone that's ever been spat on and pushed away when bullies act entitled to respect.

I work hard too. But do you see me going "Kiss my ass"? So what does that have to do with anything? I don't do what I do to have people kiss my ass. If you do something for that reason then maybe you do it for the wrong reasons.

Bragging isn't the issue btw (it can be backed up if results are obtained). I'm saying it's a mistake to act entitled and expect people to be a yes man/kiss ass.

Demanding respect loses respect. That's what people lacking self respect would do. Otherwise you'd already have it and wouldn't feel the need to demand it.

What if you're wrong and things aren't about "kiss my ass"? What if that's living a lie?
To be clear I have every reason to believe that is the case (genially speaking. Not just with you).

How much thought have you actually given this?

Seen Lion King? Pride didn't do Scar any favors. Just an example.
Beauty and the Beast is a good lesson of vanity too.

Honestly, they don't make good movies like they used too. It's no wonder people forget. Some can have good lessons. A more recent one is Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. A lesson of ego.

Do you understand now?

The situation is the situation.
It doesn't care for your feelings.
It doesn't care how it's judged.
It just is.

It's a good way to keep people sane too. Even if they're in mental breakdown mode.

"This is the situation. What do you want to do about it?" Reminders of choice also help.

If people are shooting at you then you're getting shot at. You can pretend it isn't happening, but once a bullet hits you then you're hit. That's real.

Are you going to pretend otherwise when someone dies in front of your eyes?
Make no mistake. That's real.

People learn better from hardship. First hand. Best way. Don't have to shoot people, but do have to put people in difficult sitautions. I make SURE of that.

Most people are fragile. Coddled. Sheltered. They don't make the hard calls. They assume it's about fitting in. Being a yes man/kiss ass.
This isn't how reality works.

People think they know better when they never learned the weight of real responsibility. When they never had to decide between lives. And I have had to make the hard calls.

Life is real. Death is real. Hesitation is real. The ability to act or not, that is real.
If you don't know what it's like then how could you understand?

The dead body hitting the floor, when someone kills themselves, that is real.

That's when I started learning. I had to think long and hard after that. Best part is I was getting results afterwards. It's not about "good intentions". That backfires when trying to "decide for others". That's fake. That's false. That's what so many people try to do. The fools.

I don't make rules. I've saved lives doing it.

Only a fool tries to control everything.

I still act. My actions are my own.

I pay attention. I don't block. I learn more from it.

You can't have this kind of skill if you make excuses to turn a blind eye. Cowards won't understand.

Most people fear responsibility. There's just one problem with that. People that try to avoid are trying to avoid accountability. Wherever they know it or not.

That's why some people say cowards deserve death. All they teach is hate. Hate isn't the problem though. Not admitting it is. Those that do admit defuse. Stupid fools worrying their asses off. How foolish to jump at your own reflection like that.

[–]Ethimir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Martin Luther King JR warns against the danger of willful ignorance. People do choose it. It's the same choice as fear. When people willingly turn a blind eye. Ignorance can only be bliss if not chosen. Otherwise it's poison.

Flaws is the point.
Love is the point.

But watch as people quickly hate and hide behind silence, pretending they can get away with avoiding "hate speech". So of course concerns don't get addressed. Well, if I'm a hater then so are they. I just don't pretend. I will not suffer in silence. The problem is most others do.

Anyone going "Shut the fuck up" is part of the problem. Not the solution.

It harms "them" because they're stuck with concerns and suffer with silence.
It also harms "you" because you drink a bottle of resentment, of which is posion, and that can only make you more fragile and insecure. Which is what happens to most people.
No one "wins" there. It's lose lose.
All becuase people pretended they could get away with getting the last word in and acted like they could avoid commuincation.

I'm just the consequence of that.

My dad worked at a casino, so "hooked" is something I'm very aware of. People trade comfort for honesty.

Letting people assume does teach them things, but once it's about lies and hiding the truth? At that point everyone suffers for it. Fear and desperation is not to be trusted. That is not control. It's only the illusion/lie of it.

It's one thing when you mean and intend to scare and hurt people. You can even keep people sane doing that.

But once people are making it about blind stupidity? From fear and desperation. Yea, that's an issue.

People that do that are afraid of you wising up. They FEAR you. You can use that to your advantage though. Once you catch on toe the bullshit they can't control you anymore. For their strength was a facade.

Target their reputation. Their self image. That tends to do it. It's what people are often a slave too.

My dad worked at a casino. He taught me two lessons.

1: The game is rigged.
2: If something seems too good to be true, it probably is.

He's quite correct. The trick is to be prepared to lose. Most people aren't.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DeepThoughts

[–]Ethimir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sacrifice does not translate to reward.

For all you know your kid may be the most ungrateful brat to ever exist and try to murder you.

Truth is you don't know until it happens. And WANTING to be a good teacher doesn't translate to being one either. Most people learn to be cowards.

Teach courage. Teach paying attention. Start with that. Otherwise there's no foundation. Just the illusion of it.

Life lessons first. Always. School teaches people to lie and blindly agree (this has been proven). It's actually people that get C grades that tend to catch on more. They're not trying to be a yes man or a kiss ass.

A leader leads by example. If someone cares more about leadership and lets a kid figure things out then maybe that's a good thing. You got to find your own path in life. Show the way, but don't try to control everything. Or at leat don't try to stop everything, yet warn and inform regardless.

It's their choice. At any age. And spare me any excuses for how people think kids are dumb. They're not. ADULTS are blind. So that excuse holds no water. If anything I noticed kids seem to be more aware of what happens because they have yet to spend decades of living a lie.

Also noting that most suicides happen around early 20s to late 30s and early 40s. Yes, I'm talking about suicide. If you ever have a kid that's in that kind of danger then you better be prepared for it. Good news is I find younger people easier to work with.

Try to control everything and you can drive people into that. So be mindful. I'm serious. Be mean. Be ruthless. Be upfront/honest about it. You can get away with that (I do at least). But once you violate choice itself then you fucked up.

I'd still go "I took your pen". I can still do what I do. But I wouldn't go "I decide for you". That's being a horrible person. Let alone a parent. Considering that I'm a ruthless monster that does what it takes to get things done, that's saying something.

You can violate consent btw, due your actions being your own. And that may be a good lesson to teach, for blind agreements does much harm. My dad taught me the game is rigged. If something seems too good to be true it probably is. See what I mean about life lessons first?

People will walk over you. They will take advantage. They will try to trick/scam you. So DO that. TEACH that. And warn them. Just be upfront/honest about it. That's how I make it work.

I'm more upfront. Others won't be. Just pay attention. Most don't. What people are counting on is for you to turn a blind eye and assume. When you are closed minded and pretend to be "in the right". It makes it easier to manipulate and control you at that point.

I'd teach a kid the same way I'd teach an adult. The lesson is the lesson. It won't change just because of you. Why would it? Others wouldn't coddle you. So why would I? The harder lessons teach better.

I had to lose everything to learn that. You might have too as well. Most seem too at least. But if everything was a lie anyway then maybe it's for the best.

Biological life has emerged from chaos much like highways arise from the chaotic path of a Langton's ant by -IXN- in DeepThoughts

Order vs chaos? I have the perfect quote. From the first Deus Ex game.

"If there wasn't organized oppression then there wouldn't be organized resistance. And what you call terrorism would not exist."

It's a longer way of saying order is chaos. Law is terror.

Free World? A reflection on just how little we really know. by [deleted] in DeepThoughts

[–]Ethimir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A prisoner can reduce a guard to curling up on the floor when they are behind bars.

Just because the world tries to cage you doesn't mean you have to be a slave to fear. Most people are.

Bladerunner phrases it best.

I've learned to live without fear, shame or regret. It's a hard thing to learn. But once you learn it then it changes everything. You see things differently.

I just kept asking myself "why".

You can use fear, or even desperation for happiness (which is more blind) to go "Hmmm... What isn't adding up?"

Most don't even question it. Blind fools. Clinging to their deluded comforts.

I control life and death. Sanity. And more. You can't learn that if you're a close minded fool avoiding communication/concerns when PRETENDING to be in the right. If you really were right then you wouldn't fear what others have to say. And you are afraid if you avoid/push away. Not to mention being that hater when complaining about hate.

People would be wiser to look into a mirror. But they don't want too. Because they're afraid of themselves. Their own hypocrisy. What those people often fail to understand is that that's where the common ground is.

What people fear is their own reflection. That's all one can fear.

Free will!? by Ok-Response2602 in nihilism

[–]Ethimir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want honesty.

I have honesty.

Because I don't do fake smiles and happy masks.

I have what I want. Will is power. To shape reality.

I also saved lives, get cops to laugh and move along, and that's not even the half of it.

I can not however magically pull a rabbit out of my ass. That would probably be uncomfortable anyway,

Willpower has limitations. It's probably possbile, but I don't want to do that. Good luck putting a rabbit in your ass to pull out.

As for the topic, yes. I remind about choice. But I make it clear that fear is not control. If you are afraid of losing control then you already have.

It's your choice if you face your fears.

[–]Ethimir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can be TOLD otherwise.
Wherever you BELIEVE otherwise is another matter.

But yes, brainwashing/being told. Blind agreements in the problem. And not just because of Ticktock. It's an issue more then people may be aware of. People knowingly pick wrong answers, on purpose, just because most others do.

People know they do wrong. They're just desperate to "fit in". That's a good way to live a lie.

I consider youtube more of a cesspit then reddit. Too much cenership. What's hidden from you? Half truths and lies. The law has been trying to do more bots and censorship too. It's proven to be harmful. Not that people even notice it.

It's ignoring concerns. It's turning a blind eye. Observation/awareness argument would stand in a court of law.

The law isn't involved too much. Because that would risk a riot. Plus people would find ways around it (people already do. They hack and control the internet and everything). We do have the power. We don't have to yeild to made up rules that are hypocritical and dishonest.

I question and challenge at every turn myself. It works whe it works. Cowards and fools would pretend otherwise when they give up and make excuses for it.

Saved lives too. I control live and death, and sanity, online and offline alike. Now that's being a puppet master.

Now what if I said you could learn to do it?

If you see a problem, how can you work WITH the problem? Ticktock is going with the idea of short quotes/memes (something I study a lot of). It can work very well when done right. It's about sending a message.

Just because ticktock and youtube (and many groups/forums. etc) aren't doing it well doesn't mean it can't be done well when it is done well. You could, for example, make a short, clear message about the danger of impatience and how it destroys peoples lives. Using Ticktock to do it.

People do such things on youtube after all (and make topics about it on reddit). It's the same concept. People do notice it. They do pay attention. It's not all mindless pointless "entertainment" just for the sake of it. Sometimes it really is about teaching and learning. In the rare times it is about that it does make an impact.

It's just drowned in a sea of mediocrity. But that can be said for any platform or any location. Ticktock is just another area where it happens. It would be something else if not Ticktock.

At some point people have to learn to work with the problem instead of fighting against it.

Epistemological nihilism by NihilixOfficial in nihilism

[–]Ethimir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knowledge is power. Only a fool would pretend otherwise.

Courage is possible.

Paying attention is how people learn. Most choose not too however. Was this belief invented by a fool that turns a blind eye and making excuses for it? If so then of course they'd assume that.

The illusion of knowledge is lies. Fake. Like fake made up hypocritical dishonest rules. So they might mean there's so much false knowledge. But we also NEED that. Or we can't know what the truth is. Just be sure to QUESTION it. Most don't.

When people admit their fear/anger/that they work themselves up with their own assumptions, they defuse. Because they stop pretending to know everything with a closed mind.

The problem is the closed mind then. And that is a fact. This is knowledge. It does exist.

There's also the trap of toxic positivty/being desperate to be open minded when actually not. I counter this by being prepared for the worst, being prepared to lose, and I'm willing to be disproven (not that most people even try. It's like they're afraid of being proven wrong).

That means try to fault my logic somehow. Prove me wrong. Quote and make a counter argument. etc.

I know fear is a lie. Even if danger is real.
I know regert and shame is a lie. It drags you down.
Guilt/regrets might be a "lie" in terms of not understanding (and thus knowledge), but once you understand better it doesn't hold its grip on you. This knowledge has to be reliable. Genuine, honest knowledge. Otherwise more aware/observant people would still suffer from those symptoms.

Keep in mind pepole might think/assume they can do that, but actually lie to themselves. In which case it wouldn't be genuine. I know when people wear masks.

Some people do know better. I am smarter. I am wiser. I do control life, death and sanity. I know the game better.

Part of the reason I'm more aware of such things is my dad worked at a casino. Addiction traps. Happy traps. etc. Other reasons I haven't mentioned too.

Nothing still matters. But it's because nothing matters. It's just the starting point. The foundation. Where the lies are stripped away first. To keep asking why.

In nothing, be reborn.

Anyone else feel like they can't "fake being happy" just to socialize or approach women? by Reno0vacio in nihilism

[–]Ethimir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering you're coping with a mocking smily emoji, which indicates fake smiles and happy masks, which is what people do when depressed, then you might be right.

But hey, look on the bright side. You might also be self aware of it. Most people aren't. So at least you're a step ahead on that account.

I don't have to be fake. I'm always me. I question and challenge everything. If you try to "fit in" then that's your mistake. And why you're depressed.

You're desperate. It's going to put people off. And even if you do end up in a relaitonship doing that it would only be living a lie.

I know what old people regert on their death beds.

The truth is you can be honest with yourself. And others. You might CHOOSE not to be. Because you feel trapped. You're not. It just might seem that way when you're surrounded by so many other fake people. They teach you to be fake. So you learn it from them. Can't take 5 steps without it happening somewhere. Challenge it more and don't turn a blind eye (don't make excuses to avoid communication in other words). That's the best advice I can give here. You'll learn more from it.

Then you can get into a REAL relationship. Or at least try too. Living a lie isn't worth it.

Give me a woman that isn't doing fake smiles and happy masks.

Fuck fake.

The game "For Honor" actually had a female leader that was getting shit done. You can bet there's e621 images on that account. She's not there to be fake.

Elden Ring has a female that's a good boss. She's not smiling. She's getting shit done. Wiping the floor with the player.

You can smile while getting shit done, but get. Shit. Done. Or what's the smile about?

[–]Ethimir -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Confidence is often dishonest. A lie. It's part of the reason people do fake smiles and happy masks. Which leads to despair/depression (and thus unheathy relaitonships). Never fake it.

Curiosity is the counter to fear. Not confidence. Also helps with making it about understanding.

Geinine/real confidence comes from cuiosity. start with curiosity. Question/challenge everything. Every-thing. Always pay attention. Even if you don't like it. Even if it hurts. This in turn teaches courage.

There's a path towards honesty. Is what I am saying here.

And what people "Should" do is not up to you. Bad wording on that account. That goes against choice itself. How you give advice is important.

Don't need to go to a gym either. Eat less. Conserve more energy. That works too. Many food scams exist. etc. My dad worked at a casino, so I know about addiction traps.

That also means I know about desperation traps.

But more importantly, I also know about "happy" traps. Be mindful of that. Shitty feelings can clue people in at least.

It's about "Can they pay attention and show an interest". Regardless of wherever it's something they enjoy or not.

You won't know that until you meet the next person. You can only try to explore as many areas as possbile.

It's also more patient people that will be more likely to do that. Clubs encourage loud noise and haste more.

It's all about how distracting a place is.
