I wanted to post two threads the first about my head exploding and then the thread about Dugin. But I might merge them I don't have much resources to cope with the pain.
So my personal current state: I have a very strong headache just took a painpill. College triggers the shit out of me. Sunday I reached my limit. I was extremely exhausted and could not cope with it any longer. Then monday happened and because I had fucking interactions with a very attractive woman I developed a very strong love delusion. Now the shame game has started. I will ignore her for now. I have not approached her in a brave manner. Gladly. I feel embarrassed though realistically basically nothing happened. And I am torturing myself over it. But due to the fact I crossed my limits monday I have now manic symptoms. Yesterday I tried to sleep without addictive medication which was a mistake. The whole thing is pretty complex but my headache shows I am way beyond my limit and holidays are several weeks ahead. I have soon to send a paper to a lecturer and I am panicking already. It stressed me so fucking hard. Yeah my life is a shit hole. But this forum gives me support and helps me to cope.
So after my rant. I try not to discuss politics too explicitly in this sub-forum. But this is a thought I had so fucking often when reading about this forum in the media. To make it clear I am very anti-Russia in the Ukraine war. I am clearly on the side of Ukraine. But this Dugin comparison does not leave my head.
Probably a lot of people on here don't know who Alexandr Dugin is. He is a Russian philosopher who is portrayed by the media as the evil mastermind behind Vladimir Putin. They say he is the puppet player behind the Russian fascist nation. He is extremely right-wing and a nationalist. The thing is he is probably a huge asshole, morally corrupt as fuck and might even support a genocide. That being said the way the media portrays him is ridiculous. Many experts say the media bullshits about the influence of him. The media completely makes that up because it is a story that sells well. He probably does not have any real influence on Putin. The media just pretends that to get more money by this interesting and fascinating story. It is made up in many parts.
And this fact reminds me of this forum. However there are differences as I said this guy probably is actually evil in contrast to this forum. But the way the media spins a certain narrative to gain more money is the same. The sensationalistic way of reporting feels always completely the same for me when I read about either him or this forum. I always have to think about it.
A question connected to that. Does this forum actually have a philosophy? I think most people would rather agree on antinatalism in contrast to promortalism. I am certainly not supporting promortalism. I think this forum does not have a very coherent philosophy because the members are too divere. There are some pillars though. The culture and atmosphere is fluid and changes when members appear/disappear. Could one say there is one member who is the main philosopher? I would say no. The closest would be the people who determine the rules but this usually is not a job for a philsopher (?). I think statistically some philosophies and philsophers are more popular than others. But it would be very hard to agree on one I assume.
I had this idea for a thread pretty long in my mind but I always postponed it because it might be too controversial. But this evening I am in the mood for it.
What do you think?
