quote:if we ever had a choice, then we are going extinct because it is considered immoral to choose otherwise. Gold. I haven't watched the show but I think Emt was defending the idea of enjoying hosed up things (hello forum that made goatse a verb) and not actually harming children. He's got some other good posts in here that suggest this I'll dig up in a minute. Anyway. Their stuff about the apocalypse is really good thanks for sharing that quote.

The "nothing is true, all is permitted" crowd seems to relish the fact that the collapse of the biosphere will coincide with a loss of society's already woefully limited capacity to inhibit predatory behavior. I wonder what that's all about, or what might make them different from an Atomwaffen Division edgelord or groyper.

Who said "everything is permitted"? Makes me think you didn't understand something.. Which is fine. I disagree with the statement (lots of things are not permitted especially hurting kids) but I also don't think anyone here made it

Zodium posted:the last stop on the idealism train is always "everything is permitted, including pedophilia," but once you get seriously locked into an idealist track, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. i hope my dude or dudette gets the help they need, which we cannot provide as posters on the something awful dot com forums. it keeps happening, and always inspires me to bring up how dozens of prominent french intellectuals signed public petitions in favor of pedophilia in 1977 and 1979 lmao

There’s a ton of misplaced resentment over the deprecation of material conditions that were reinforced by the cis-hetero white patriarchy post-WWII, and the spiritual transition to the entirely online new atheism movement was intellectually lacking, as most auto-didactic pursuits are, so the God-hole in all these falling middle-class white men’s heads was eager to fill with pseudo-intellectual explanations that, again, missed the mark and reverted to old divisions to satisfy the rage. Hannah Arendt has bits about the ahistorical rise of fascism, and we’d be wise to heed them as the biosphere starts putting the hard limits on our civilization we failed to decades ago.

https://www.upi.com/Science_News/2022/07/19/global-extinction-threat-may-be-higher-previously-thought/7501658254724/quote:July 19 (UPI) -- The threat of extinction to all species on Earth may be much higher than previously thought, a new study suggests, after a biodiversity survey found that about 30% of species have been globally threatened or driven to extinction since the year 1500. quote:A previous 2019 report from the United Nations compiled by just 145 experts from 50 countries found that about 12.5% of all species on Earth, or about 1 million species, were estimated to have been globally threatened or driven to extinction since the year 1500. Whelp, see you in 2025 when the number doubles again. quote:"Experts also acknowledged substantial uncertainty around their estimates, with perhaps as few as 16% or as many as 50% of species threatened or driven extinct over this time," Isbell noted in a press release. Never mind, looks like scientists are catching onto the pattern.

This thread much like our planet has the best meltdowns Maybe some day we will all meet on the battlefield of our dead earth and won't have to worry about pondering how hosed we are going to be and how meaningless our individual contributions to material conditions are. We can hold each other at gunpoint directly instead of hiding behind notions of freedom

Harold Fjord posted:Picked a bad time to do dumb philosophizing but it's still just dumb philosophizing. gently caress the mods, read this person's posts. thanks man. i just kinda barged in and saw someone contradicting my line (and slandering rime, who i like), tried to post a correction. turns out it was the single dumbest worst hill to die on maybe ever. Rectal Death Adept posted:EmTme3 seemed like the kind of poster that took solace in their own intellect. Faced with something bad you just dissect it and quantify it. the ruthless critical analysis of every existing thing (starting and ending with oneself) means exactly that. Mola Yam posted:just lol if you've been on these forums for more than one minute and don't know about the ultimate poop you don't touch, even tangentially. it's like Posting Enemy catnip. technically, the reason for the perma wasn't that post. i slammed my site at the mods directly, explained what i was doing, and told them to perma me if they don't want me around. they poked around on it for a bit, and indeed - i am too much of a wackadoodle doomer even for the biosphere collapse thread. it would be in everyone's interests if i never return! krispykremessuck posted:glad to have the biosphere collapse thread re-confirm my distrust of anime people and internet philosophy sayers i have not and will never voluntarily watch an anime. Bathtub Cheese posted:Lmao that post and most of his others were a series of unjustified claims peppered with polysyllabic academese. Conflating our "current regime of enjoyment" (read in context: one that excludes pedophilia as a legitimate form of enjoyment) with omnicide is one of the most disgusting things I've read posted here. Marquis de Sade was a notorious pedophile himself, so there you go. awwww yeah now we're getting the good stuff. i'm honored to made the all time top worst posts list! in the meantime, we are literally, factually, actually enjoying a planet to death. with this undeniable fact in mind, surely you can agree: there is something extremely hosed up about our current mode(s) of enjoyment. an constructive question arises - what kinds of enjoyment do not contribute to omnicide? can we imagine a world where we enjoy repairing our shared planet, rather than destroying it? that's the context that i was writing in. maybe you should update yours for the post-holocene. and de sade was many things, but i mentioned him specifically because he was among the first to submit his desire/enjoyment loop to something like an empirical practice. what he discovered was this: enjoyment is an amoral mechanism, and if you follow it to the end, you can enjoy anything. this is not an argument for or against the morality of any of those things, it is an explanation for why the enjoyment of said things exists in the first place. which leads me back to zode. how ya doin big guy? Zodium posted:i've seen it many times. i've almost been there, most memorably back in my libertarian days when I reasoned my way to Rothbardian child markets and thankfully had the good sense to go "woah, stop the loving presses, we gotta backtrack." EmTme3 took a wrong turn down an idealism track, and ended up where all such tracks must. here is the final pm they sent me, after I told them they needed therapy, not theory: if you'd read anything on my site, you'd know that i'm a radical materialist, not an idealist. interestingly enough, when you push materialism all the way to the end, you don't get 'everything is permitted', you get this: nothing is permitted. de sade was de sade so that we could learn from his example without becoming him. the lesson is this: because enjoyment has no moral content, when pushed to its end, the pursuit of enjoyment turns us into monsters. turns out, he was right; and now we're a sapient extinction event. the only ethical stance then is to try to escape enjoyment altogether, which leads us to my prime ethical directive (insofar as we want to attempt to be revolutionary subjects): Hans Jonas posted:Act only in such a way that the effects of your actions can be reconciled with the permanence of true human life on earth. this is an ethical suspension of morality, but it goes to the militant discipline of 'nothing is permitted' rather than the hedonistic cliff of 'everything is permitted'. this is a figure of a totally uncompromising celibate warrior monk, not jeffrey loving epstein. so then: insofar as we are serious about being revolutionary subjects in the 21c (lol), it is our duty to stop both ourselves and others from enjoying a mass extinction event. this is the position i'm arguing from; and i'll admit - i really hadn't considered or thought about the ramifications when applied to sexual deviants when i made that post. so the choice either an unpricipled idealist 'let people enjoy', or a principled materialist 'all enjoyment is suspect'. in political terms: ecosocialism or extinction. God Hole posted:is emtme3 the same poster with the eyes profile pic (syphilis or something) who melted down in the last thread because we're all a bunch of jaded nihilists who won't sacrifice ourselves to sabotage the oil industry ya that was prolly me. that was a good post. 'how do you want to die? jerking off in front of the screen that stunted and enslaved you, or striding across the wasteland with your comrades, filled with red purpose?' something like that. Pepe Silvia Browne posted:lmao at conflating Ukraine war cheerleaders with people saying "hey man maybe sit this one" to the guy trying to rationalize enjoyment of child torture animation no conflation, just observing the same effect. i advance an amoral ethical line into enemy territory, and get demonized even tho i'm explicitly not supporting or justifying, just explaining and analyzing. Harold Fjord posted:Gold. yeah you're getting it. i was saying what i've elucidated here: all enjoyment is hosed up. especially here of all places. our successors (if there are any) are going to be the ones who succesfully learned how to not-enjoy enjoying and enjoy not-enjoying. Bathtub Cheese posted:The "nothing is true, all is permitted" crowd seems to relish the fact that the collapse of the biosphere will coincide with a loss of society's already woefully limited capacity to inhibit predatory behavior. I wonder what that's all about, or what might make them different from an Atomwaffen Division edgelord or groyper. motherfucker i'm a truth seeker attempting to advance a systematic 21c historical truth process into the world. i take truth very seriously. and again - insofar as we are ethical materialists, nothing is permitted. Harold Fjord posted:Who said "everything is permitted"? what i said was that anything can be enjoyed. and that in lieue of stopping people enjoying a planet to death, the alternative is to let people enjoy. and that got interpretted as me tangentially defending anime kid torture porn, or something. Perry Mason Jar posted:I think its good. It needs to be allowed. I also want posters to talk about me for 4 pages when i leave or get banned.
