121  Economy / Speculation / I just went full long with 1000+ Bitcoins. on: March 27, 2012, 09:57:54 AM
Why?

- Press is heating up again.

- Summer fever is about to approach.

- Bitcoin is way undervalued. Period.

- A bottom has been established with all the recent dips.

I am ready for another bump. It's one event away from happening.

If I had slaves, I wouldn't want them without the freedom to live lives with some leisure. Otherwise, they aren't very productive.

Nobody's interests are served in a totalitarian society unless you want the majority of the human masses gradually made extinct. Heh, which might be an inevitable scenario.

My only point is awareness and avoiding blind trust.

The fact is the only thing I am doing is winning. I win on the forums, I win in real life. Win. Win. Win.

I'm perfect. I'm awesome. You guys are only upset because you're either jealous or empty shells of men.

So, yeah -- winning!

The US government doesn't control the money supply. Try again.

Gavin, how does it feel to have the fate of millions of dollars of other people's money riding on every release?  I don't think people appreciate your diligence enough.

He calls it experimental software for a reason. We are investing at our own risk according to him.

Who wishes to join me in an association of confident and strong-willed individuals -- not by obligation but only by choice?

Are you an egoist? Do you swear to never live for the sake of another man or woman?

Join me and together we can discuss great things and possibly make something we can enjoy.

So is returning selfish love selfless and thus a virtue?

Again, this is retarded. Love involves yourself no matter what.

My point: Do what you value and not what your daddy told you. If you value your master above all else, so be it.

In the end,  I am just making conversation. I don't owe you anything. You don't owe me anything.
133  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Selfless love... on: March 26, 2012, 10:19:22 PM
I love being a "douchebag" because it gets what I put my mind to.

Everyone else is just jelly because I don't act like a weakling and let them stomp all over me. That's what we call selflessness.

Additionally, I am very well armed. I dare any man to come murder me. I would love the challenge.
Sounds more and more like the sociopathic serial killer. Challenge indeed.
Sounds like somebody isn't using their Second Amendment.

Unless you're in some god-forsaken hellhole where armless civilians get shot by armed outlaws.

lol

He'll get shot/stabbed with his own weapons..  

As a Canadian, you make me howl hearing your child like views..


POLICE, COME QUICK, HE'S SECONDS AWAY FROM BLOWING MY BRAINS OUT AND I HAVE NOTHING.

Police: We'll be sure to represent your deceased body very well in court. Good night.

*hang up*




And your version would be

POLICE, COME QUICK, HE'S SECONDS AWAY FROM BLOWING MY BRAINS OUT AFTER HE STOLE MY OWN GUN AND I HAVE NO WAY OF PROTECTING MYSELF

Police: We'll be sure to bill your parents for the medical bills and represent your deceased body poorly in court. Good night.


Again, you don't realize that I am likely stronger and more capable than the robber.

Additionally, I am more fit than most policemen.

All we are arguing is about the word selfless. I think it's retarded.

True selflessness is death; you don't exist. Yes, I love seeing people happy but that's not selfless. I selfishly enjoy bringing joy to people's faces. It includes ME. I am not out of the equation.

That's all I am saying.

They always talk about being a "grown-up". If you want things your way, you're a "child".

It exemplifies how they grew up: Authoritarian parents and teachers that were obsessed with allotting privileges and making orders. What was the prize that was used to reinforce their behavior? Eventually being labeled a "grown-up".

In turn, the child becomes obsessed to living up to the authority their parents bullied down their throat. The people or "children" who don't follow authority need to be put in their place.

I will reckon most of these people had horrible rigid childhoods. They couldn't go outside when they wanted to. When they didn't do their homework, they were verbally abused by their parents and so forth.

Additionally, public schools only add to this abuse.

For example, I was put in bootcamp for refusing to do homework. I was forced to run until I vomited. I had to sit in a cubical eight hours a day with no restroom break while I was told I had a "poor attitude" for not doing the requests they forced upon me. Luckily, it only added to my resentment of the system.

Anyways, my point is, a lot of people on here act like abused slaves obsessed with getting approval from authority. It's a sad way to live.

Objective rights don't exist.  Rights are legal constructs to enable society to run more efficiently.

Read up on this guy - he does it better Smiley
So there is nothing inherently righteous about the law? It doesn't apply to you if you do not wish to follow it (assuming you have the might to evade its purported consequences)?

I am glad this is going smoothly.

"Selfless love would have to mean that you derive no personal pleasure or happiness from the company and the existence of the person you love, and that you are motivated only by self-sacrificial pity for that person’s need of you. I don’t have to point out to you that no one would be flattered by, nor would accept, a concept of that kind. Love is not self-sacrifice, but the most profound assertion of your own needs and values. It is for your own happiness that you need the person you love, and that is the greatest compliment, the greatest tribute you can pay to that person."

No.

Why?

Because you, and/or whomever it is you are quoting, are confusing love with the byproducts of love which arise when the ego (hence, selfish) gets involved.

Something similar would be like saying "love hurts."  No, it doesn't.  Jealousy, anger, frustration, etc. are some of these hurtful byproducts.

Another similar example is like saying "I'm worried about you because I care about you," but worrying about someone and giving care to someone are two completely different things.

All of these negative byproducts (jealousy, anger, frustration, worry, etc.) and even the positive ones (lust, pleasure, etc.) are not love.   If you experience these and think it's love, you are wrong.  These byproducts are intense but shallow; love is subtle but deep.  Because  the byproducts (the derivations) are intense, they are what are often noticed; because love is subtle, it is not often noticed in it's purest form and rather it is confused like in your quote.

What is love then? Unicorn dust? Absolute self-sacrifice?

You do it because you value the person, period. It's selfish.

Caring for someone is a selfish act: You want to maintain the person's existent for your satisfaction. You will be upset otherwise.
