Oh look another "materialist" who relies on the pan-psychic influence of others to determine reality. How Jungian of you. Thatcher once said, "there is no society, only individuals." Do you disagree? I imagine so. Even Marx called out Commodity Fetishism but you put the greatest fetish of all on society and reality as something inherent. If reality is just an interplay of individuals, the truth proven by both Rand and Marx, then an individual is free to form their own reality away from your own.
You'll never know the true truth because you're still enslaved the collective unconsciousness.
Also, did you really think someone was actually identifying as anti-intellectual. Come on, I know you couldn't understand the the ironic Freud in your "I want dommy mommy to step on me" thread but this is ridiculous. Looks like you got owned on two fetishes, mommy and commodity.
Man you really don't understand when people are doing bits. You think people would just go on the internet and not mean literally everything they type?
Hexbear needs a villian, don't you understand UlyssesT? You wouldn't be having half of the enjoyment in this conversation if I just did a normal comment. But now I got to do a silly bit and you got to pretend you're arguing with someone serious.
Discussion on the internet is inherently worthless because no one ever changes their opinions. It's a black box in which no matter the inputs, the outputs remain the same. Is it really so wrong then to lay down ideas like "seriousness" if it doesn't change anything? Your answer will be of course that I'm delusional and only doing this to cope or something because that's what your opinion started as. No matter what you or I say, we cannot change.
Stop posting and touch grass if you want truth, nothing here matters.
