so it sounds like to you natsoc is basically Christian nationalism. But like that's something different. You could have capitalism and Christian nationalism.
 
Which brings up again my skepticism and makes me question what natsocs are about. I think some self-identify as natsoc because it just triggers leftists which is admittedly hilarious. I saw a SJW the other day post unironically they want to ban porn because it is "degrading to women" which sounded exactly like "Nazis" who want to do the same thing. They seemed oblivious that they were in agreement with "Nazis" (well some, anyway).
 
I guess part of the point of my post was to identify specific things that natsocs like or are about. Frequently I see online a vague understanding of economics by natsocs, which makes me think in reality they could probably be natcaps (nationalist capitalists) with just a little economics reading or reasoning. "Socialism" is not really necessary to their views, it's just they identify with natsoc because they think it represents other views they might have (like Christian nationalism).
 
And again so if a natsoc simply wants to be free to be a Christian away from like muslim or Jewish or other religious influences, this isn't really intrinsic to authoritarian natsoc but could be compatible with libertarian nationalist capitalism. You can just have property owners ban a lot of degeneracy and not "consoom" it yourself.
 
Also it seems strange to me that so many haven't tried to distance natsoc from any kind of implication of a desire for violence. Probably because such natsocs are angry, and they like people thinking of them as edgy. But I imagine a lot of natsocs don't want to hurt anyone, they just want to be left alone to be who they are.
 
So actually the "violent authoritarian natsoc" seems like they might be in reality a nonviolent libertarian-ish nationalist capitalist.

didn't click link but I've seen the idea before, on the surface it sounds nonsensical like those who identify as "pan-attracted" ... they attracted to animals and kids too?
 
So similarly how ridiculous is a "pan" government. It can't be anarchy and monarchy at the same time, so which is it, anarchy or monarchy? They are binary choices. Unless it's saying something like privatized institutions in something like anarcho-capitalism, is much like government institutions, and so it's acknowledging the centrality of some kind of institution for human organization.
 
I could see people trying out different forms of government or cycling through them.
 
I suppose I just don't grasp what "panarchy" is.

kind of a commie holiday but also kind of not
 
labor is very important to socialists; for example would be important I'd think to the "national socialists" here
 
> taxation is theft
 
I certainly think no taxes would be best taxes hypothetically so to speak

yeah, I go back and forth on how much manual / mental versus human calculation we need
 
I do think a case can be made for outsourcing all the calculation to the computers and just having us do higher reasoning or lower level thinking simply to identify what calculations need to be made instead of making them
 
it's like digging a hole. If we have excavator machines, do we need to teach kids to dig with a shovel? More manual calculation is only really needed if we get in to a survival scenario where we can't have access to a calculator device or computer to calculate with. Otherwise we would be more productive just teaching how to operate the machines.
 
Since we have limited time to teach, we could possibly cover more ground by not teaching manual / mental calculation so much as how to operate calculators and computers more. Maybe just an idea of how to calculate if you need it in a pinch.

well so assuming you're not orthodox (based on the video) we would consider you to be "protestant" as well I guess (are you like independent baptist?).
 
interestingly I forget if we've had conversations about this before, but it seems like with the papacy being taken over, that the "pope" (who is not actually a pope from some Catholics' viewpoint) is "anti-Christ" now just like many protestants have believed for years. Yes, Francis has been calling for a need for a "New World Order". These accusations came from protestants for a while but now Catholics hold some of these views against the current "popes". It is a strange situation.
 
He's saying that "you can't be a Christian if..." you believe something that Christians believe. Like Christians have always been ok with people having weapons, I imagine - even to protect yourself against animals. So there's no substance to a statement that you can't be a Christian and make or own weapons.
 
I don't really know if this is the end of times though. I could see somehow an actual Catholic pope getting back in the Vatican for some time and the pendulum completely swinging in a different direction. It's really to me impossible to tell what the future holds. There are some things not in place for the end of times it seems, yet. I could see it go either way, they could fall in to place or fall off track for a long time.
 
Covid's aftermath now looks confusing in retrospect. Some people were saying it was a mark of the beast, but there were things that weren't in place for that to be true. And now it seems the plan failed for now possibly (?), things opened back up for now. But the same stuff could happen again in connection to some kind of false religion. Or maybe not, maybe things will persist for some time off in to the future.

as you're already aware but I will simply repeat, the Vatican appears to be taken over by non-Catholic / non-Christian SJWs who parrot a lot of wacky things, like "pope" Francis has said any host of strange things we would gawk at here:

yeah, knot-tying is definitely a useful skill that I've wondered why isn't more commonly picked up or taught

something interesting I learned about amish is they only go to school to like the 8th grade (middle school)
 
which then would make people think they're simply uneducated
 
but I think they keep learning like in apprenticeship and studying on their own and so on

hey one idea with a parallel search is it would be nice to custom filter certain results
 
like I hate sites with paywalls, I would just add them to a list so they don't come up in search if I could

I'd tend to agree, although I think I've seen videos like this for some time now. I'm guessing the groin is more resilient than some thing.

it is probably a crisis of meaning
 
but also I think in my own experience, it's kind of the raw aftereffects of some of these misandrist attitudes in society and squeezing of men financially at times and all that

lol I wish boomers would have just left us entirely alone, or done a good job as authorities
 
anarchy, or authoritarianism
 
instead I saw a weird mix of directing people towards materialism and destruction and compromise and so on

Oh yeah I forgot one motivation I had for these posts was to DEBOONK some things they said. Like that one reason why men are harming themselves is because society tells them to be strong and not get help from a therapist or open up about their emotions. This just sounds like misdirection and gaslighting.
 
Well at least in my experience of talking with school counselors, these people are just as confused about life themselves. So therapy to me is not helpful but maybe journaling is useful instead. Talking to a good man can be good instead though of course. But I've also experienced my emotions do jack squat to fix any of my problems, so I've felt less of them over time.
 
I just overall think the "you need help" narrative is a bit feminine. The reason some men don't get help is because they know they have to do the work themselves. No one will do the work for them in certain instances. So sure you can talk to a therapist but you're going to have to do whatever it is to fix your life anyway. I think instead a lot of these stressors are just nasty and guys don't know how to cope sometimes. So the solution isn't "therapy" so much as make it easier to be a man in society, not as worried about unfair divorce courts and being promoted in school and work to be able to make more to take care of themselves.

This is how i feel about them sometimes
 
absolutely destroyed a lot of things and have the arrogance to think they're the best and that no one can criticize or question their bad decisions
 
history will forget or shame this generation I think
 
on the other hand boomers were more white so I wonder if some people think that the anti-boomer narrative is an anti-white narrative

I think the argument is true and untrue
 
for some people, sure, they try to escalate to cp over adult porn
 
probably for the vast majority of viewers, this escalation does not happen
 
keep in mind that pornography viewership is high in both genders:
 
> And for adults, an estimated 91.5% of men and 60.2% of women report that they’ve consumed porn in the past month.
 
https://fightthenewdrug.org/by-the-numbers-see-how-many-people-are-watching-porn-today/
 
so I think there's probably a lot of people where this escalation does not happen
 
as for how to stop it, I think there needs to be more of a message over "just stop"
 
It requires prayer, fasting perhaps, exercise, good relationships, work, and so on - a whole bunch of things to keep people busy in life and satisfied and with the resources they need to quit
