@professionalbigot69 @WashedOutGundamPilot true, I should have never left

@WashedOutGundamPilot This is also why I'm not a libertarian. "Just let people do what they enjoy" sounds good in theory until your sister is chopping her tits off because she's been psyopped into thinking that's healthy, and you can't do anything about it precisely because we have these libertine principles.

I once heard a joke that you could walk into Chicago or Detroit and kill every person you saw out past midnight, and the murder rate would actually lower from that date forward because you removed the source of the crime.

I think this also applies to collective/individual suffering. If you (hypothetically) shot every fat fuck in town, there'd be some grief but the predominant unspoken feeling would be relief. Nobody would have to wipe their ass for them, and no one would have to spend 2/3rds of their income on a calorie vacuum guilting them in their house.

We all suffer a little by letting a few people suffer a lot.

@PraxisOfEvil Gen Z is simply more cleanly bifurcated compared to other generations. Boomers are a meme because they're all identical, whereas zoomers are like 80% fucked in the head with an extremely solid 20% who know better than to advertise their powerlevel and worth.

Speaking purely from utility, I know I can entrust my life to a zoomer who's risen above media consumption and learned a skill. That's what to be whitepilled about, not some lofty promise that they'll somehow don jackboots and declare Total Nigger Death. If you see an intelligent, hardworking White kid under 25, they're on the same page, they're just out of any positions to act on those beliefs.

@latein @WashedOutGundamPilot Mostly true but also partially cope. I enjoy running and fortunately live in a place where I can get most things in a 45 minute jog (without getting jumped, too!), but a 10 minute drive allows me to get more done in less time, including proper weightlifting which does more than running ever could.

The problem is mostly one of town design, and amerimutts will defend the assbackwardness of 400ft blocks with 4 lanes + median of blacktop. We didn't choose to live this way, but you either cry about it or adapt to it. Hopefully in the next civilization cycle we have better town/city planning

@WashedOutGundamPilot @latein I was this close to getting one from a cool boomer friend but he gave it to one of our coworkers instead. I can carpool most places and don't have to deal with anything but gas money. That'll hopefully change once I make enough over the summer to afford my own, but thats not guaranteed and basically I'm coping.

@WashedOutGundamPilot @latein what if I embrace the non-automotive life because used cars are unbelievably expensive? quick search of my (wide) area and almost everything is 150k+ miles, 3+ owners, limited service history and... $7,500+

anime girls poorly photoshopped into real life locations is probably my favorite genre

there are some surprisingly pleasing takes on it as well

@luithe @WashedOutGundamPilot Thats what I experience pretty regularly and it's really gross. If I wanted to lose my virginity it wouldn't be difficult at all, except that I'm repulsed by the girls I'm around. Some aren't even totally bad looking, but the public shamelessness puts me off. I relate to Pygmalion a lot.

@sickburnbro @white_male be a nigger to the system and a friend to your friends, shrimple as

if you use doordash/ubereats though, that's less being a nigger to the system and more just being a nigger

@white_male @sickburnbro a lot of guys took BANTSposting to mean "If I don't exploit the system someone else will" and that's being a spiritual kike. I play dirty when dealing with enemies and I pay extra to those who are my frens and those who deserve it.

@WashedOutGundamPilot Gen Z/Alpha get hooked on 5 second reels, but the Xillenials got hit super hard by the podcast virus. They feel empty sitting in silence without a 10 hour long discord call playing in their earbuds.

@DW2 I used to feel anxious waiting for the coming collapse, now I'm anxiously working in overdrive to prepare before it happens. No matter which side of the coin you're on, we all feel it in the air.

@WashedOutGundamPilot They're also low hanging fruit. They go out to the middle of LA and pick up obvious whores to make fun of, shaping public perception that this is the norm. They could be out hunting for these broads for hours but you'd never know because they didn't film the process, just the fish they caught.

@billiam @sickburnbro @white_male Interesting, I'll have to look into these. Regardless of which specific scientific reasoning used, I think OP's point still stands as virtually every single inventor, mathematician, scientist etc. of any note have been male, and there's zero evidence to suggest this would change in the future.

Also CC: @Tfmonkey because he introduced me to the flaws in variability hypothesis years ago but I can't find his video anymore.

@Arty24 @merchantHelios The fact that infinite jest is so high up on both 2022 and 23 makes me think /lit/ either has zero taste in books or they don't read

You'd be surprised how often a bit of charisma and word magic can take you. There's the old joke "a clipboard and a hard-hat can get you on top of the tallest buildings," well I'd say "a silver tongue and a cheeky smile can make you mayor."

Unfortunately people ascribe negative aspects to this skill (understandably considering which races have passive stat bonuses associated with it), so the only people who learn it are those who would abuse it. I don't want to live in a world like that, so for the sake of everyone I hope you're learning the craft as well.

@Tfmonkey @houseoftolstoy @kaiservenom Equality Stabiltiy and Freedom are good descriptors but I think the French had better meme-ability with Equality, Fraternity, Liberty.

@WashedOutGundamPilot @Nickger @WaifuPoaster88 Lots of boomers I know are in that halfway area where they'll say nigger but then only listen to black ted talks because muh based black man talks about Jesus! You see this a lot with military vets for some reason.

They're used to a high-trust society and so you can somewhat rely on them for that, so long as you return the favor. It's nice, feels like a glimpse of the past. Most of the bad boomers I've met usually are too rich to empathize or associate themselves with everyone else, so interactions are kept to a minimum. I assume the more I climb the corpo ladder, the more I'll be forced to rub shoulders with them, but I'll cross that bridge when I get there.
