@UpperMaster I see. I got you. I may reconsider my stance on the matter

Just like the title says, I think there should be an official collective ideology set in place that basically should dictate to you how to live your life. Whoever you are. It would be adopted as an official ideology/religion/philosophy for the citizens of the state (whatever the state happens to be). It would be an all encompassing ideology on how to live your life based on science, rationality, spirituality, psychology, philosophy, self improvement, how men and women are supposed to behave etc. etc. You name it. Best insights (only ones that support prosperity of the human species, positivity and social cohesion would be picked) from all fields known to mankind would be compacted into some sort of religious book. Churches and religious places celebrating this faith would be erected, allowing people to meet and become a part of a strong community with clearly defined values, goals and a moral code. This religious system would be regurarly updated by the power structure (meritocratic goverment established by direct democracy) in a sneaky ways that would go unnoticed by most people, so as to reflect the needs of human civilization at that particuliar time and our most recent knowledge and understanding of the world. This could erase an existential void of society created by the death of religions/Gods, technological progress and ultra liberalism that just aims to deconstruct everything while offering no actual replacements. It would have to have the same level of allure as the religions of Christianity and Islam for example - offering comforting blanket for the mind (but one that would help you live a good life in this society), and it should also be spread just like they are spreading it - by basically showing it in people's throats in schools, media, public places, anywhere online etc.

Interesting points. I think I'll ask ChatGTP what he thinks about it

@yetineti big tittie women is the true weapon both parties need. If conservatives got them I be like "oh daamn take my freedom away any time baby. Yeah, yeah sure, whatever, close those borders, move out those illegals"

I doubt there's any. Only ugly old men unfortunately

If only all these right wing regressive parties all over the world were all consisted of big titty women. At least there'd be something to look at and bask in

I also want to apologize. *laughs in McGregor*

Isn't that the case for most people though? Well that's certainly not how I intended it. Well that's true, sort of. Since ideology is selfishness ultimately. But also everyone is selfish and wants to meet their needs. There is a need for a community and a collective sense of purpose in our society. Do you think it's just going to solve itself by itself naturally by people just becomming more individualized and stuffing more knowledge inside their heads? (We already have all the info on our finger tips anyway).

@Breakingthewall What I'm suggesting has definitely never been tried in human history as there would be no atheism (as atheism is stupid) nor do I count any attempts of nazis, fascists or communists in any part of the world. In this religion there would be a belief in a higher power or God so to speak, but also reason, and all the things I have mentioned above

All that has to happen is for this religion to serve your needs long enough and you will eventually accept it as the truth and become a follower.

No I haven't but I guess what you are hinting at is that democracies have an inherent bug in the form of stupid and ignorant masses? In my opinion there are some ways to circumvent this problem which I've described in detail in other thread on other topic. Or are you suggesting something else?

@SwiftQuill My response to you is very simple. It doesn't have to be perfect at all, because we are talking about a religion. I never ever said it has to be perfect, it just has to be all encompassing and as good as it possibly can be. You can still have your freedom of choice to not believe in this religion. All the other belief systems would still exist. But this one religion would be heavilly encouraged and promoted basically everywhere What you are proposing here is an epistemic anarchy and that's where we are heading right now. Everyone being locked in their own little universe of beliefs, being their own little god. Being disconected from everyone else because everyone else is also living in their own little solipsistic bubble. Also, you do know how the process of "you personally believing things that make the most sense" work? It's actually also dictated to you by the society and external enviroment

The creation process of such a religion and how it should be established is not entirely clear to me, as it really can't be. It has to be a spontaneous thing and have a huge emotional component to it just like Abrahamic religions do. Think about how a Christian views a sacrificion of Christ and an early history of christianity in general. Despite being persecuted, hunted down, humiliated and offered as a sacrifice to lions in colloseums of the Roman Empire, they still endured all of that abuse and eventually became a dominant religion and the official state religion. Even establishing it's secular power center in Rome itself. Talk about the emotional message that sends. Or how about Islam, they have to view their ancestors as absolute badasses. All of a sudden they just emerged from the arabian deserts, having united the whole peninsula and utterly destroyed any armies they faced for several decades. Winning several battles they should have lost. 0 defeats. Conquered wast swathes of land. It really did seem like Allah himself wanted them to win over all these infidels. Successfull religions have a powerfull emotional messages and histories such as these. Perhaps such a message and history for this new religion can be created during some of the upcomming crisies we are going to face

Maybe that was the point of that nickname?😂

Yeah whatever. I'm right as always and that's what really counts. LOL just like I'm right about veganism

1. Where did I say I'm scared of homosexuality? 2. All of yall MFs are cucks. All men are cucks. Including me. It's just woven into our biology Anyone who dissagrees is a fookin liar

"Artistic porn" LOL what does it matter how artistic porn is, you are still watching another people fuck while you jerking it like a cuck LMAO tbh by this definition we all done cucked many many times in our life but that's the whole point, you gotta go from a chud to a stud. Porn as a cope is understandable and that's why I'm not entirely against it, but to straight up advocate for it, idk man. Sounds kinda backwards to me

😂 aight bet. You can tell her to call me anytime she needs some natural pegging

US is superior to Russia tho I can say that with an utmost certainty since I'm living kinda on the borders of the western and the eastern hemisphere and zones of influence

Can I also be your wife's boyfriend? I'll have her on Saturdays only I promise

I still want to maximize the ammount of money I'll make. Maximizing the so called "staged orange" probably leads to the best possible life. Since capitalism will certainly not go away in our lifetimes (in my opinion at least) might as well try to make the best of it. Just being a realist about it. Becomming some commie hippie or seeking any other alternative path aren't really viable options once you analyze it rigorously enough and be honest with yourself See, anyone who's worked a 9-5 before knows how things really be

Why would they be unsustainable? Curious to see how you see it. You have read the book haven't you. With the kind of technologies we are going to have, the only way they'd be unsustainable is if elites fough against each other due to their own greediness and ambitions. Somehow creating a chaos and an opportunity for change. Which is precisely a scenario that is prevented in the book by elites spying on each other. I suppose the book is not very realistic at all tho as nobody would want such a system as it would benefit noone.

I'd write what I believe is gonna happen and vent my frustrations, but I'm tired of being negative

Most of our food tends to be contaminated with something. It is a huge issue of our age. Something ought to be done about it but humanity would have to cease being so foolish. Only fish from ponds and lakes of certain parts of the world can be considered really clean imo. Fortunately I have access to them
