Yes, obviously.
The level of inequality in existence is absurd. And it’s never going to change. Learn how to deal with it. Like every other actually living sane being does.
Or keep being a silly non-being who would rather whine about existence than… exist.
I’ve already learned how to deal with it, dealing with it doesn’t bar you from complaining about it.
There’s less inequality in many parts of Europe than North America because people complained more, became writers, activists and voted at the municipal, provincial/state and federal levels for politicians who gave more of a shit about them than the average North American politicians do.
That’s what we do half the time on these forums, complain, and that’s what this thread is about, whining about democrats.
Maybe if people complained more, became writers, activists, and voted smarter, instead of taking antidepressants like they do in the US, maybe society would be better and there wouldn’t be as many mass murderers as there are, but no, Americans bottle everything up inside, until some of them explode one day, and the rest wonder why.
Complaining is therapeutic, it’s better than taking antidepressants.
Absolutely. There is something so anti-human, anti-mammalian in our drugging away of emotions. Then in practical terms, it is cutting off feedback about society. A tiny percentage react badly, OK maybe medicate them if they want. When the majority is diagnosible, it means society is fucked up. It’s like giving just painkillers to people who’ve had, let’s say, their arms broken by their employers. ‘Oh, you have a disorder, here’s some opium.’
Be a man, be an American, toughen up, don’t complain to your fellow employees about your boss, don’t complain to your fellow citizens about the politicians, don’t demand a raise, or better working conditions, or help from your community, or help from your government, and never cheat a system that doesn’t give two shits about you, instead, work even harder, have another cup of coffee, take some antidepressants, and if you just can’t take anymore, we got just the solution for you: here’s a gun, hell, here’s 10 semi-autos and a nifty little device you can use to convert them into fully automatic assault rifles.
Kill yourself or some random folks on the street who’ve been fucked just as hard by the system as you have in a fit of rage, that’s the American way, but never think to kill the people most responsible for your plight.
Americans need antidepressants, it’s just another tool the elite use to turn us into “obedient workers” and make sure we stay that way, along with all the mindless entertainment, the dumbed down media, the cell phone, “the sneakers with lights in them”, the piece of cheese.
Keep the hamsters spinning the wheels.
Keep the rats running the race in the maze with no exit.
Buy lottery tickets so that the conditions of your life seem to be on the possible cusp of changing radically at all times and less real.
Get triggered by sensationalist accounts of indviduals - famous ones with generally boring problems, not famous ones with odd, horrible problems - so that it feels like you are living.
Passively engage media as much as possible.
Hate who you are supposed to hate.
Pretend you are not affected by advertising.
And smart phones, don’t even get me started.
Such little beings. But if you want something to actually complain about, then complain about the silly cult of victimhood leftist brainwashing that is still infecting you.
Oh boo hoo waaaa life is SO unfair and mean!! Don’t bottle it up inside, let it out!!
You’ll make a fine slave boy in capitalist hell.
Pretty much sums up your contribution to philosophy…
As before, you completely miss the point. Zero effort to explore opposing views confirmed.
The point is that cooperation is an extremely effective strategy, learn about some game theory. Sure it’s possible for inequality to grow to extreme proportions, but it isn’t fixed, it can and does change. Constantly. Learn to deal with it like sane beings do. Different levels of cooperation occur everywhere in nature, and when they do, the teamwork can outperform individualistic competition easily.
At the moment we have an economic system that enables, necessitates and rewards individualistic competition, and the results are great in many ways but hardly optimal. The left aren’t bound to conserve old ways that kinda worked ok in the past to varying degrees, assumed to be impossible to improve upon. That kind of narrow-mindedness is for the right. The left look to alternatives to progress (a dirty to word to those on the right). They know that cooperation is possible because they have it at their core, and the more their nature is suppressed, the more hostile and often irrational they become. Obviously there are many great examples of leftism going too far in the West, particularly in America e.g. newer waves of Feminism. The levels of oppression to which too many are resorting out of frustration is getting the most attention, of course - capitalist media cannot resist a scandal. But calling for a ban on guns every time the US has yet another mass shooting is not an example of the left going too far - other countries (Australia is a great example) banned guns and the results were so obviously effective. America just refuses to accept reason based on empirical fact for the sake of the continuously debunked ideology of Conservativism - the irrationality of the US right is so ubiquitous it’s no longer newsworthy, it’s just accepted.
K: =D>
hilarioussssss
Where is Hilldabeast when you need her?
Nope, dont even need her/it. plenty of hilarious nonsense here already!
K: and I’m sure this passes for an argument on the right…
who needs facts or logic or even an argument when we can just
pull out magic words like, “Hilldabeast” which is for the right, is an
an entire argument…because this has nothing, absolutly nothing
to do with the argument at hand like, you know, gun control or
perhaps the shooting at the high school, or perhaps even the fact the
NRA is an terrorist organization…nope, let’s make an stupid, pointless
comment about Clinton…that sure showed us lefties how to make an argument
for… nothing…
Kropotkin
HaHaaa!
Look at me just saying it’s funny and needing no reasoning or anything whatsoever to back this up!
Yay, I won the argument! I’m so clever 
In fact, let me meme the Donald as well, to emphasise the hilarity that I am communicating to be so apparent…
You are literally the most vacuous vapid unthinker that I have ever had the displeasure to come across.
Seriously what the fuck is this shit?
Is there some new, gay republican hoodoo or voodoo cult I’m unaware of?
Right on.
Conservative Muricans that read too much 4chan and view Donald Trump as the reincarnated capitalist version of Jesus Christ. They view his presidency as the 2nd coming.
These are people who cannot fathom or see the systemic problems of capitalism, the American economy, and that don’t have the ability to understand the Jewish question. Basically they’re your typical American neo conservative civic nationalist. They view Donald Trump as the epitome of being their libertarian messiah. For democratic Marxists Obama was their messiah, for neo conservatives and libertarians Donald Trump is theirs, it’s all a pathetic cult of personality without substance much like most American politics has degenerated into.
And he learned nothing.
So it’s the responsibility of the FBI to prevent school shootings, whaaaat?
