"there’s been a lot of talk about insincerity and larping on the traditionalist extremist online right lately, and honestly these days I feel like I’m the only one who actually reads manga"
i read the guts one, that was very good. i also watched that one about the big titans and the city. i don't remember the names or details, i liked seeing things die in that art style.
daseins coment that the 1917 movie is about using Tinder is very poignant: It doesn't matter what the subject matter of a movie (or novel) formally is, that is not what the movie is "about". Men who have not been to war cannot make "war movies", you can literally only write what you know. so whatever you dress it up ass, it becomes a "war flavored" story about, using tinder. that's the emotional core that the author has available. interestingly, the entire super-hero comic genre was initially created by vietnam/korean war veterans. something to think about!
it's more like a warhammer 40k sort of futuristic battlefield, constantly evolving, a jungle of sexual validation where the strong prey on the weak, like my friend was flirting with a girl and then she just had an onlyfans where there were asshole pics like what in the GODDAMN WHAT IS THAT THAT IS CHAOS DEMONS SHOWING UP OUT OF A PORTAL WE DIDNT PLAN FOR IT
you really are talking about a heideggerian concept called being-towards-death.
"So, there is nothing morbid about being-towards-death. Heidegger's thought is that being-towards-death pulls Dasein out of its immersion in inauthentic everyday life and allows it come into its own. It is only in relation to being-towards-death that I become passionately aware of my freedom."
Realizing we currently abide in the world ruled by the king of lies, this "death of death" is not what Christ, in fact, did, but what Satan thinks he has done here... willingly beguiled all fools into flaccid placidity whom have no regard for death. When they do have it brought to their attention (i.e. rona), they selfishly and narcissistically flip out on everyone else for they are now involved in a war on an invisible enemy, and if you're not wearing your mask or taking the vaxx, well, YOU'RE MY ENEMY. What a embittered existence. Those unwilling to accept this seem to have no outlet for a "good death" that is not co-opted by some Jewish war, suicide by cop, or simply suicide by default. Thus, we pray each Sunday, "For a Christian ending to our life: painless, blameless and peaceful, and a good defense before the dread judgment seat of Christ, let us ask of the Lord."
But what about all the men who willingly signed up for wars before the industrial revolution? Were they not also trying to experience life through close encounters with death? Is it alienation really leading the call to arms?
tw**t ideas:
"NFT? oh you mean 'likes' "

akshually what you're talking about is heidegger *adjusts glasses and wipes the chicken juice off my pants*
Much Hegelian insight to be found here because humanity is only revealed through one risking their life in a fight to the death

This is incredibly profound. Wow. I’m going to have to reread this time and again to soak it up. Thank you. Damn.
Socrates says philosophy is the art of being-towards-death. Aristotle says you hoard wealth because you fear death.
But what about all the men who willingly signed up for wars before the industrial revolution? Were they not also trying to experience life through close encounters with death? Is it alienation really leading the call to arms?
