It’s because, so long as we serve nature, we aren’t really people. We are expendable warrior drones, and women only have some value, because they are drone factories. Meanwhile, all we are doing is propagating some non-sentient strand of code, that is our objective.
But it does not have to be this way, this was a choice by someone powerful, to keep us animals.
That’s one of many reasons I do not respect structures of power. Who says what is right and what is wrong. Not people who say they have the authority do do so, that’s for sure.
Lables like “masculine” or “functioning” are just lables made up by people to categorize and dehumanize others. Everybody’s a person, and everybody has the right to do with their life what they want. But most people don’t see that and blindly follow a path that was laid out for them. Is it “masculine” to fight and die in a war you have no stake in? Or is it stupid? Is it “masculine” to want to protect your loved ones? Or is it just human nature?
This is a deep topic, I could literally write several pages about it, but I’ll spare you my poor attempts at philosphy. Unless that’s what you’re into.
Time is an illusion. But I understand, people have jobs and families.
Not related to anything: I think this is the peak of my character arc. I’ve been visited by an Angel, I insulted a Pig, and I argued philosophy with the World’s Dumbest Man. I’m pretty sure this is how myths are made.
And if you do find some time to argue philosophy (and bullshit topics in general), please check out https://lemmy.world/c/Hermes_Collective. Judging by your displayed name and what I’ve seen on your profile, you’d feel right at home.
I know, shameless plug, sorry. Just check it out if you find time. Hope it’s not against TOS, because I’m too lazy to check rn. Cheers! :)
I don’t think they make sleep depravation in pill form.
Although…
Wait, is this a serious inquiry? Because I could give you an extensive list of mind-expanding substances I allegedly used in the past. I could even tell you a purely theoretical method of acquiring each of them, as well as the effects they have.
And just so we’re clear, I am not offering to sell you non-taxable goods via the internet. It’s a terrible business strategy.
You can send me a private message if you’re interested in exchanging knowledge/information. I will tell you what you want to know, but in exchange I will expect the same.
Read my crusty tobacco-infused lips “I am not trying to sell you anything.” I literally said so. And even if I did, I’m not a biochemist, just friends with a few of them. It would be easier for me (and probably for you too) to get the extract from a human pineal gland than ISRIB.
Have you tried therapy? I’ve heard the placebo effect is all the rage nowdays.
And by the way, you can’t get into legal trouble by just discussing drugs. I could tell you how to build a bomb, and neither of us would be in legal trouble. There might be some questions, yes, some authorities knocking on some doors, but knowledge is still a free, unregulated resource (if you know where to look (kind of like mining for gold in your backyard)).
And by the by the way, supressing the stress response is not mind-expanding, it’s synthetic coping. While you’re at it, why don’t you just go ahead and turn off other biological responses. Just turn off all of them, why not, become the perfect worker, get exploited at the cost of your human experience. Great deal. No offense, this was meant to be a hyperbolic joke. (apparently I need to specify to be understood). Not the coping part though, that’s just my unfiltered opinion.

I had plenty of it, and while I really love these topics, I am forced to ration my time.
In other words, TL;DR or I’m not reading.

I need what you are on!

It would be interesting, but I also don’t need the legal trouble of something I’m not actually buying.
If you had something like ISRIB on the other hand…
