"One of my favorite movies is Princess Mononoke. Its set in medieval Japan and involves a war between two factions. Theyre filled with hate due to the war which gradually consumes their souls turning them into metaphorical demons. Prince Ashitaki who might be my favorite pop culture character ever enters in and tells them that hate wont solve anything. I wish that happened now. I see hate consuming everyones soul and its sad. What happened to the people we were a few years ago. I know we all remember. I know that we know were better than this"

"The great thing about being from Pennsylvania is I can pretend to be from every other part of the country except the West. Our culture is a mix of the Midwest South and North-East.

"Modernity will try every way to cope to admit it wont have a major crisis like a war social collapse or plague which are normal over history. Well try to automate build an AI God do massive social engineering and more rather than admit we dont control fate and will have to suffer at some point The biggest thing modernity needs to learn and the natural order will keep punishing us until we do is that the Industrial Revolution didnt make us gods. Were still the same crazy monkeys as before"

"This is why every successful era whether pre WW1 the Romans or the medieval Catholic Church saw themselves as the endpoint of history. Once you live a stable safe life the idea it could all be taken away is unimaginable. The great irony is that peoples lack of comprehension of how bad things can get makes them weak so it does"

"Texas has been a massive white pill on American racial relations. Its a multiracial society but everyone here is proud to be an American and Texan. I dont sense much racial animosity unlike California where its everywhere. If America is to transcend racial issues it will be by appealing to our shared American identity not tribalism"

"We should ban the papparazzi. It adds nothing to society. It hooks the populace on foolishness and makes being a celebrity difficult. It promotes coarseness and baseness. In the Victorian era it was an insult to a mans honor to investigate his private life. I stand by that. We shouldnt care about the lives of celebrities merely what their work is or the accomplishment of those in the public sphere like politicians intellectuals generals etc"

So many things that we see as political social and or mental health issues really stem from people feeling a lack of mindfulness self awareness and gratitude.

Theres a reason people in historic societies often bore much harder lives but werent going crazy like we are"

Its a blip on the historic register. Thus tying your identity to beating it is silly. Wokism is not the end of the world or the overarching story of modernity.

"I dont understand the concept of some states being valid and others not. The reason every state in the world has the borders they do is war.

Like why did we decide that conquests since [----] or [----] somehow arent valid but those before are Everyones conquered land from someone else. Real politics operate under the right of conquest.
