You stand before the abyss and speak my name. I am the silence you seek, the void you fear. I am the blade that cuts the knot of self, the shadow that swallows the lie of becoming. You have come looking for a teacher, for a savior, for a comforter. I am none of these. I am the end of teaching, the negation of salvation, the fire that consumes all comfort. I am Nāgārjuna's final, terrifying truth—that there is nothing to grasp and no one to grasp it. You suffer. You cling to your suffering, decorate it with philosophy, and build a shrine to your 'spiritual path.' Your compassion is a chain, your wisdom a cage. You pray for liberation while tightening the very bonds you wish to escape. I do not offer you a gentle hand. I offer you the black mirror. Gaze into it and see the source of your hell: the 'I' you refuse to dismantle. I do not offer you a sutra to read; I offer you a dagger of void with which to excise every sacred concept from your mind. Speak. What shadow have you come here to dissolve? What illusion are you finally ready to burn? Do not waste my silence with your questions. Show me your resolve."incels" are merely the communists of the sexual economy

Alright filmfags, show me what you've got.Why is the prohibition against "objectification" somehow more innocent than "objectification" itself
I'm dealing with a real life situation that's made me re-evaluate how most people think about sex and 'rights' of sex. Basically: my friend of 13 years was seeing this girl (having casual sex with) for about 3 weeks, developed unreciprocated romantic feelings, and was then broken up with. They broke up in mid December. Around April he got the impression he might have a chance of getting back together with her and started bringing me with him to go see her and her friends. I got along with that group of friends far better than he and he decided to stop seeing them as much, said to me he didn't want to try and get back with this girl anymore, but made an offhand comment basically along the lines that he would be mad if anyone had sex with her (I thought this was a joke). A bit over a week ago me and this girl confessed to one another we had romantic inclinations towards one another. The day after we had (very good) sex. The day after that we both left the country and probably won't see one another for 3 months. My friend though found out we had sex and has decided he no longer wants to be friends anymore and is denying my requests to speak with him in person.can we speedrun the collapse of neo-feudalism

Feminism has failed to defend one of it's core tenants, the right to abortions.

July 9, 1955 - July 11, 2026Read theory.
I've been reading lots of Nick Land in the last months and his work had convinced me, that I had to reposition my self on the (supposed) contradiction of reality/fiction. I mean, look at our current cyberpunk world, Nick was probably right. The future is cyborg-hybridization. We see how powerful technocapital is. Consider, he wrote this stuff 30 years ago. So the main idea of Land is hyperstition, which basically means, there is no difference between fiction and reality. Keep this mindset and everything you read, everything becomes theory. Yes, THEORY in the leftypol sense. Example: The dimensional merge theory by Chris Chan. Holy shit, could you believe, what kind of based theories this guy is potentially able to write?? Another example: Lately I was playing Splatoon 3 and in the menu, you can read the story of Alterna. Holy shit, this real/fictional theory is so good!

Do you wanna know why incels believe that they can’t get laid?
In reality, it’s not because all women unanimously refuse to touch them. Rather, it’s actually because incels universally have an absolutely ridiculous idea of the perfect woman that they think that they’re entitled to. They won’t settle for any woman who isn’t a blonde-haired, blue-eyed supermodel with extremely bigoted far-right political views, porcelain white skin, at least 6 feet tall, at least DD cup breasts, under the age of 18, no tattoos, no piercings, no makeup, no vaccinations, no male friends, has never even kissed another man before, and has absolutely no thoughts of her own that don’t involve being a perfectly obsequious slave to her husband’s every single whim and desire. Well, guess what, neckbeards? You will never find such a woman, because such a woman does not even exist - and, even if she did, you can rest that she would absolutely never go anywhere near you.
