Being non political | Forum

My opinion is that you can get apathetic towards the herd mind for flocking, but you're always going to reference it in some way.  And that's what your seeing. There's never a blanket condemnation of the normative without supplanting a replacement (a)political ideology. 

Society is too connected and overpopulated to ever really break away. 

All sides of the coin are picked before the same kickoff. Even taking a position that both "fa" and "antifa" are all herd-minded drones is still having a political opinion. Even saying, "That's THEIR sheeple circus" is still being political. As semantic as that sounds. You just get exploited a lot less with the "third side" opinion.

I look at it like anarchy. 

Every group of considerable size needs increasing number of slave practices proportional to population. 

There was an anarchist squatter compound in Denmark that took over an abandoned military campus. They were very much against government or outside influence. Yet they still had elections for leaders and established laws.

I'm sure, as pot pushing hippies, they were all anti-establishment. No rules of the man.

Well except: 

Christiania rules forbid stealing, violence, guns, knives, bulletproof vests, hard drugs, and bikers' colors. Taking any pictures and videos is also forbidden in Christiania.

I don't believe in worshipping the state and being part of the collective, many people are ingrained in so called Nationalism/Patriotism. In my opinion that idealistic goal is a dead end. It is impossible to bring back a Nationalistic/Patriotic system where everyone smiles, waving their flags, and proclaiming themselves as happy Americans. As I have mentioned, it may had worked back in the 1950's where it was a conformist society, but the counter culture of course destroyed that collectivism. The only collectivism that primarily exists in the U.S. is differing ideological political/religious cults or groups that choose to focus on their false idealisms. Dystopia is what exists and will remain. Whether you are of the Right or Left/Conservative/Democrat, that Idealism that is carried is simply a daydream that will never come into being. 

Not all (if any) philosophy forums will let you post music. Which kind of sucks.

The circle encapsulates everything. It is nothing : 0, and it is everything : eternity, also zero : 0

Anyway, his main line was that Putin was an assassin at one time for the KGB or something, and I'm like, are you fucking kidding me? And of course the Americans never murdered anyone, right? No, not explicitly. We just nuke entire cities and then kill from a distance via modern technology, but it's nothing personal. What an asshole.

I would trade Putin for Biden any day of the week, and twice on Sunday, but I'm not really much into politics either unless it's interesting, and it usually isn't.

You know what you're right. I immediately went to your dashboard and looked at the country you are in and formed my opinion based on that.

And here it is:

You're from the UAE. So you're like Kuwait. High valued currency and awesome infrastructure projects at high paying wages for the region. Future cities sprouting from the desert in two decades.

  I actually use Dubai to mock people that think muslim countries are backwoods sand sucking places like Tehran. I can actually play guess the city with internet photos from Dubai night life and convince people it's a club in Miami Beach. From what I hear it's a lot of expensive Italian sports cars and western chains. So that's like Miami Beach too. 


What I know about your government is that they are all rich fucking westernized sheiks with massive French built yachts that modelled the functioning of their society in line with Western expectations. And do great business because of it. 7 royal families deciding capitalism fucking rocks. And you still have a parliament to act as the intermediary between the people and the monarch. 

Please correct me where I am wrong. 

You're benefit is your country lacks political parties while having a democratic system (with electoral college) in place. The benefits without the bitching.

Our bickering and stereotypes are born from our political parties and "free press" that purposely categorizes people into marketing demographics and sells prescripted ideologies in blanket application on competing news networks. 

UAE doesn't have Liberal News Sources and Conservative News Sources. You have State owned news Sources, which ironically have way more integrity and objectiveness (instead of objectivism) in their reporting.

Our political tendencies are from an instilled importance that the political party makes a difference

Two societies taking different paths through the forest, one less travelled to the other, still ending up at the opening ceremonies of the World Cup this November in Qatar.  Did their paths there really make all the difference?

Okay, done being pretentious.

All joking aside Go is actually a lot of fun.  

Quote from Cornelius Coburn I don't have any recollection of that game at all.
