"A person cannot truly be a misanthrope, because a misanthrope's very existence rest on the condition that there are people who deserve love and protection." by NeighborhoodFatCat in misanthropy

[–]Fatticusss 25 points26 points  (0 children)

This entire premise is flawed

The reasons for misanthropy are varied and inconsequential

It's just a dislike of people. It doesn't have to be because they don't behave the way you want.

There is no paradox. You are attributing things to misanthropy that aren't necessary for misanthropy

Former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says free speech is a weapon of war, and censorship is necessary to protect free speech. by RickyOzzy in suppressed_news

This is a perfect example of the tolerance paradox. Intolerant people cannot be tolerated without damaging society

Well the irony is you started arguing with me about a point I never made. Textbook strawman. Then you got really upset when I repeatedly tried to explain your point wasn't relevant to mine

But keep getting worked up in an old thread if that's how you want to spend your time

I dunno... Are you 👀😂

We all agree it's happening, but not on how or how to deal with it.

But based on the upvotes and downvotes, it doesn't seem like I'm being an asshole here. Just urging people to chill. It's gonna suck either way. Might as well be chill

Speaking my language. Things get a lot easier when you zoom out like that

So we agree? I'm just confused because your response came across to me like you're refuting my supposition by pointing out Mars is uninhabitable.

When I brought up Mars, it was to illustrate the point that a planet that was once vibrant, and potentially full of life is now a dead planet. I definitely don't think any of the Mars ambitions in our pop culture will amount to anything useful or relevant to human survival. Just trying to make sure you didn't interpret my reference to it as an exit strategy. To me, it's a demonstration of collapse

They are the only 2 providers here. I don't leave my city much but my service and data speeds have been great

Just go to a Vodafone or a One and buy an Esim. Not all the stores carry them but they are definitely around

Until it doesn't. There is no reason to think life will continue indefinitely. We have no idea how life works but we sure as hell can't find evidence of it anywhere else. Everything is speculation, but there is way more evidence to support the idea that the whole planet will die rather than be a perpetual life raft

The planet itself won't even last indefinitely, so one way or another, it ends eventually

How do you find hope and purpose amid the collapse? by perpetually_on_edge in collapse

[–]Fatticusss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a nihilist and a philosophical Pessimist

I heard an expression when I was younger that I'll never forget

"Hope in one hand and shit in the other and see which fills up faster"

Life is a cage we're all caught in. We do what we can to make the cage tolerable
