Epictetus. Stoic Lessons from a Slave (The Discourses & The Enchiridion)
Просмотров 9853 года назад
Epictetus and his Discourses, as well as his Enchiridion, are prime examples for the wide applicability of stoicism. He, as a slave, proves that philosophy is not just for people that have too much time on their hands but that it can and should be a cornerstone of everyone's life.

Martin Buber: Seeing People for What They Are vs. What Purpose They Serve
Просмотров 7 тыс.3 года назад
Often we see people as a means do an end. We ask ourselves how they can help us achieve our goals and in many circumstances that may be justified but the theistic Philosopher Martin Buber believed that there is another way. In his work "I and thou", Buber explains two different modes in which we address other and how they impact us. The modes are the I-it and the I-thou... Support me on Patreon...

    The blackpill is reality. The most important factors in success in dating or success in life are completely out of your control. Your height, bone structure, and race are all genetic. Your personality has a large genetic component too. For some people, they were doomed from the start.

    What bothers me is that guys care so much.. the more people realise what women are the better.... its you vs you.... trust me.. when you do you vs you* hotter women notice you more... but they are snakes and distraction... nothing more.. you got two choices... let them play you or keep your guard up and keep things perspective.... once a woman gets in your head and makes you believe she loves you or even just likes you.. she has the ability to make you believe whatever toxic twisted shit she says about you.... white lies hurt more than a black pill........... because the memory of the person next to you who was using you becomes a twisted face humilating and laughin at you......... trust me folks, when she says she loves you what she really means is 'I like your cock, but thats about it' .... which is all a woman really is... something to fuck... they are objects... mans only task if he is not rich.. is to reclaim his barbarian bloodline. ... Disagree?..... F*** off and Die.

    I do think if more guys who are ugly or who feel ugly trained and became as athletic as possible, put on enough size and got chiselled followed with a decent haircut as the finishing touch.. they would have more confidence and also be more able to take action whether be with women or the things they dont like about themselves... I dont wanna be a 10.. fuck that.. if I could be a 7 facially id be happy... all this information given to us now through the internet but the reality is.. we still live in the real world... people suffer with their own traumas and mental health issues... people are abused... it holds them back and people retreat into themselves and take less risks... people see the world by the cards they were dealt..

    I identify as a nice guy and take issue with the idea that nice guys aren't nice. We don't do things "just to get a reward", but when being nice gets you absolutely nowhere, you get frustrated and while most walk away, some do lash out. I do volunteer work for multiple places and while I don't expect a reward, I do appreciate a show of gratitude and recognition. There is one however, that, while the volunteers get a show of appreciation from the event organizers, we get almost no show of gratitude from the recipients and unbelievably, we even have some cuss us out because they feel they didn't get enough charity or exactly what it is they wanted. I've seen people who were distributing items yelled at and threatened, and quite a few wind up leaving. If I had to drop one activity, that would be it. So the same goes for women. I've known women who get drawn in by bad boys, only to see them treated like crap and in some cases, physically abused. Most men learn from the time that they're young, if you want to get a woman to like you, here's what you need to do. And that list usually involves buying flowers, candy, jewelry, take her to nice restaurants, etc. Often we're taught these things by our own mothers because they claim that's what they'd want a man to do for them. And when you do the things you were always taught "here's what women want" but yet you see them still keep falling for the bad boys even though you know how that's going to turn out, why wouldn't you expect nice men to get frustrated? We get told, if you're attracted to a woman, here's what you need to do and if you're a nice person she'll probably like you back, we do those things and it means nothing. Yet we see guys who do the things we're always told "no woman wants to be treated like that" and all the women flock to that guy. There's a saying told to nice guys "you can't just insert nice coins and expect to get sex", yet we'll see the bad boys insert "bad coins", such as cheating on her, not calling, ignoring her, even abuse from verbal to physical, and that vending machine starts spitting out sex like crazy.

    @oliverrowley4405 Месяц назад

    This comment is for anyone who believes in black pill nonsense. Women are not all specially programmed to ONLY go for looks. Women are people just like us and we need to treat them as such. The people who have troble with women are those who are insecure about themselves, have no confidence, and think of women as a different species. I once fell into this trap of believing in this nonsense even through I am attractive. I never found love despite trying but know the reason is not my looks but my personality. I used to be a weird guy and was portrayed that way throughout highschool hense the reason i never found love. I am going into college with a whole different mindset and I am making freinds much quicker than i did in highschool. I am now very confident and worked on my body and mind. I am starting to reach higher and higher social levels despite having social anxiety because i left my insecurities behind. If you respond with "lt's all about looks" then i have to say that is truly false. I have seen countless short ugly guys get girlfreinds due to their genuine nice and non-insecure personalities. Love is for everyone who works for it and learns from their losses. Despite not having a girlfreind yet i can say confidently that the blackpill is a complete lie. Hope this helps. Love will find you ❤

    I think that the problem with the blackpillers is how they understand the ideas of the black pill, of course, if you are a attractice guy (for exemplo: 7 to 10) i’ll get more women and the life will be more easy to you, but give up of your goals or even your life, is the most ridiculous thing than you can do, literally the attractive guys (the famous chads) are 1% of the mundial population , in my country the are 0,0000000001% of the population, there is no reason to worry with that

    Blackpillers fail massively to take into account that attraction is influenced by many complicated interwoven factors like - appearance, social status, intelligence, personality and confidence. They focus only on appearance - which in itself has many different sub categories it’s not black or white. Like yeah a guy might be short and bald but also have nice eyes and filled with positive energy, a guy might be 6’5 but have the personality of a doormat etc…

    The thing that stood out to me about the comment you presented is that the incel admitted to being an alcoholic. He sounds like an addict who is trying to come up with excuses, instead of accepting that most of his issues likely stem from his drinking problems. Long term alcohol abuse will fuck you out of a lot of opportunities, heighten already existing mental health issues and no one will want to be around you. Alcoholism will also make you reek.
