Ghost Leviathan posted:The whole zen thing is supposed to be more about learning, self-improvement and philosophy, with the pacifism thing being mostly a Western orientalist invention, is my understanding. (though suddenly thinking of the Simpsons minigolf episode where Lisa tries to use Zen to train Bart to improve his game) Mysteriously, zen places had zero problems with any of the japanese atrocities of ww2 when the soldiers were commiting them Or the German ones

we live in a different age, where porn is basically easy-to-get and free, so drastically reduced levels of horniness are required in non-porn things, that's what's up with the age thing

chakobsa is Space Chechen (compare to the real chakobsa, the Secret Noble Chechen - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chakobsa), and petersen did take a lotta stuff from chechen instead, is my understanding. so de-arabized but slightly-more-chechenified. the OG source was about chechnya, anyways, but too obscure for the western audience edit: no he didnt lol. it did sound Caucasian to my ears but he didn't do any of that poo poo. absolute lol bob dobbs is dead fucked around with this message at 22:38 on Mar 2, 2024 |
