Someday you will die and people will lie about what you did when you were alive.

The bible was right about almost everything when it came to women

- Stanley Kubrick

Kill lots of Jews

man's inhumanity to man

genocide works

Long unity leads to disunity, long disunity leads to unity.

People easily fall for memes.

The secret to ruling absolutely is to completely control access to food. Without that nobody has any real reason to listen to you.

"Don't ever let your mods tolerate feels posters, or it will spell doom"

FPBP

The world is complex and then you die

Human beings are stupid violent animals and ultimately, despite their stories to themselves, the sum total of their efforts amount to nothing.

This is a complex process though, which can immediately be upset through the justified killing of the head. Absolute rule in praxis is not therefore a good method of government, but rather an exposure of the defect of the cowardice of the people.

Everyone can get got. Most of all Kim Jong Un, who should rightfully be killed at the first convenience.

Humans are and can be perversely evil, petty, vengeful, and imaginatively cruel.

This and also nice trips

Alternatively "Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it"

Learn lessons of history

>Kim Jong Un, who should rightfully be killed at the first convenience

just be yourself

>the sum total of their efforts amount to nothing
Whence comes Internet, then?

Violence solves everything. And if it didn't, it's because you weren't violent enough.

They can be pretty good though.

If you kill your enemies, they lose.

Not her but heat death is on the way. Everyone's culture will be rendered worthless before the Sun.

Things could have gone so much better

But muh historical drama... muh human interactions...

Things could have gone so much worse.

Our species were this close to going extinct. And we’ve come way too far, only retards believe in some creator.

This. Close.

Things could have gone so much worse

Every value, behaviour and principle is determined by determined society, everything is ideological, these ideologies are transmitted trought means of distribution, ergo, the ruling class

>Our species were this close to going extinct.
What do you refer to?

The Prince

At some point in time our species got reduced to 2,000 - 3,000 population wise, due to natural causes and whatnot.

>only retards believe on some creator.
What did he mean by this?

To learn what works and does not work in terms of being, and to rest your identity on something larger and older than yourself.

he should be, by his own people

You have either to work your ass up to the elite/high class level and stomping the lower class by any means keeping them dumb and subservant to assure you and your progeny a future

Or

You have to live outside the system, better if in a community with same ideals, stealing from the corpos, taking all the free shit you can and helping yhe systen collapse to assure and your progeny a future

If you do anything in the middle (ie being a "productive normal churchgoing citizen") you're cattle and you're fucked

*the system

Uh, source?

I always thought that. History and almost every human remember the best and the worst. The middle doesn't matter.

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

Do not try to invade Russia in winter.

Zizek nigger

There will always be mistakes.

The lesson is people don't learn lessons.

Just like Indiana Jones, only you can find the truth.

You can't stop change.

Islam is the light :^)

Yea, like if the allies won Wor-oh wait

The light from the bomb blast ;^)

not him but here you go, my good deed of the day

The main lesson in history is that history repeats itself!

You see the dumb shit that those idiots did? Don't do that.

Shit happens.

kek

...

power is everything

FUCKING THIS THATS WHY YOU GOT TO MAKE IT YOUR LIFES OBJECTIVE TO DO AS MUCH HYSTERICALLY ABNORMAL SHIT AS POSSIBLE SO EVERYONE KNOWS PEOPLE A LYING WHEN THEY SAY THEY KNOW THE WHOLE TRUTH ABOUT X PERSON. DO IT JUST DO IT.

No one in the past has not died even jesus died. You can't not die no matter what.

Most people alive rn haven't died yet tho

The more I study history, the more I begin to accept the fact that suffering is inevitable and ineradicable. Even if civilization succeeds in eliminating most "natural" sources of suffering such as disease, people will still strive to satisfy their own interests at the detriment, damage and death of others.

i'm fucking dying

That China will grow stronger

This is how socialism happens, kids.

The modern world is based on less tangible concepts than the pre-modern world.

t. brainlet

>implying socialism would be any different
like I said, even if we build a somewhat "fair" society relative to the one we live today, it won't change the fact that we'll keep fucking each other over.

It's all competition, you either win or lose, zero sum game. By definition suffering is unavoidable.

Fuck bitches get money

unironically this, just switch money with power in general

The empire: long divided, must unite; long united, must divide.

Brush your teeth twice a day

Except life and history are not zero sum games.

>cat.jpg

Jews are not victims

Mercy is weakness.

Jesus was right

Nothing ever truly changes.

Might indeed makes right.

Nothing is sacred

If you believe anything written in a book youre gay.

Nothing is for certain except people need to eat, sleep, stay warm, have sex, and die. We are remarkable at adapting to the circumstances and challenges of our environment.

People follow heedlessly the piper of clearest dawn.

>be socialist teenager
>study history of nations that claimed to be socialist
>stop being socialist
At some point, the "not true communist" arguement becomes tiring when you realize that every attempt ended in failure and ridicule.

NEVER GET INVOLVED IN A LAND WAR IN ASIA

That people don't learn anything from history.

t. Žižek

If you don't kill the communists they will kill you.

Everything needs to change, so everything can stay the same.

Life's a bitch and then you die.
