no revolution

[cultural_revolutionary]

no revolution is coming unless people do something instead of sit on their asses dreaming about it. get out and spread your ideas. talk to your friend and say your oppinions, make them believe in them, start a movement, start a society, start a revolution

[anomaly]

And have you started your revolution yet?

I think you should consult with slim...

[cultural_revolutionary]

yes actually i have started. i have converted people to athiesm and gotten people to be nihilists and at school during the last maybe 2 months people came up to me and thanked me for changing the way they thought about things and their outlook on life, they also said things like if they never met me the couldnt imagine thinking the way they used to.

okay you converted a few people to nihilism...so what? A revolution (as in sort of seen here) is a big change in the political situation, the removal of capitalism and the becoming of socialism. I have not seem you turn a capitalist country socialist!

[LSD]

yes actually i have started. i have ... gotten people to be nihilists

In heaven's name why?

Nihilism?

You mean, nothing matters, nothing's true, fuck it all?

No thanks! :angry:

Wow, can you say Delusions of Grandeur?

[cultural_revolutionary]

speaking as a realist, its not happening that the capitolism will change to a socialism, i'd like it to happen just as much as you guys, but an equally important cause i would like is a revolution in thinking. if people start thinkin for themselves and knowing there are no limits, the next step is thinking on how a society would be run to work together

[cultural_revolutionary]

if you worked from there then maybe its possible to change the capitolism to socialism but the movement started would have to be so large that not even the government could stop it and would have no choice but to give in.

This can have some political and social value.

Actually, the predictions that Marx had on capitalism enriching fewer and fewer is happening. The middle class is disappearing, Poverty is on the rise, and the top 1% has become uber rich. Now this is taking a long time (longer since the Russians had their social premature ejaculation). Now people have to spread the word. In there schools and work. There needs to be a grass roots movement. Now this will piss off a whole lot of people who will try to stop it with any means posable. Oh, and people have to actually start meeting in person, regularly and purposefully.

And that is good for the Left why?

Why would you fight for a truth, when you believe in no truth?

[symtoms_of_humanity]

I always thought nihlism as just saying theres nothing out there to be above me, no god, no masters, no leaders

[cultural_revolutionary]

"Rejection of all distinctions in moral or religious value and a willingness to repudiate all previous theories of morality or religious belief."

"The belief that destruction of existing political or social institutions is necessary for future improvement. "

This can have some political and social value.

Maybe in a short-term early revolution smash-and-break kind of sense. But not in any real meaningful way.

Nihilism advocates that, ultimately, nothing matters and nothing can be objectively better than anything else. Real nihilists argue that society should have no rules whatsoever.

That kind of mindless destruction serves no purpose. There's a lot that we should hate about current human society ...but hating human society itself?

You are a great man.
