Last I checked, he still has the leg. Needed surgery though. Bone fragments in his calf.
No. Animals suffer without knowing why. Only people can truly appreciate suffering. You can't convince an animal their pain is their fault(even if it isn't).

no one can de-borg my fact's ...NO-ONE!!
wow!!..... Im not even going to comment
And yet you did.
At no point did I offer that this would make you feel good. At no point did I say this would improve your opinion of me. At no point did I even ask if you have the stomach for it.

and what kind of opinion do u think iv got of you ? ...... Because i thought i had a good opinion of you? Please correct me if im wrong , judgement is silent to my vocabulary
I made assumption that your morals fall in line with 99.9% of humanity. If they do not, welcome to the club, I get a hard-on from human suffering.that wasn't a comment

you spelt "assumption" wrong .
Compare your quote to my post. There is no error there.

Interesting. I'm a pretty empathetic person, but lack of empathy and guilt is a really interesting thing to me.
So what about sadism do you find enjoyable, exactly? Why should you be bothered to inflict pain on other people?
I don't know specifically. Control, power? It just feels good. Adrenaline, endorphins, dopamine, serotonin flushing the body.

we wouldn't be talking like this if there wasn't.
Hmmm.
In no particular order;
Der Antichrist(Nietzsche)
the Silmarillion
Ian Kershaw's "Hitler: Nemesis"
Vampire the Masquerade gamebooks
And last but certainly not least, my favorite type/genre(maybe counts as a genre?) of story ever, Faust. My personal favorite of the actual tale is Goethe's Faust.
I'm going to ask you to stop posting here because you're just being annoying at this point. If you have a genuine question, go ahead, but if you're going to keep doing this(like you did in Sang'ha's thread), I ask you to stop.we wouldn't be talking like this if there wasn't.
What do you mean by evil?
When do you know to not to do or stop doing something? I realize you have diminished empathy so you probably have intuitive limits to what you would do, but is it how other people react or expect?
In a way, you probably have a unique perspective on what 'right' and 'wrong' is and must look at everyone else and wonder what is going on. So I'm kind of curious as I rely so heavily on empathy to navigate other people.
I like to tailor my limits to the people I'm dealing with. But if I'm alone, it's all a matter of risk/reward.
As cliche as it sounds, I have a code of sorts. 'Right' is whatever helps me and if it will help me in the long run, whatever helps other people. So I don't go around turning people into pin cushions or the like. Wrong is what is detrimental to me or detrimental to those I like to have around.
More generally, I do not harm the defenseless. Animals, children until a certain age, the elderly past a certain age. I might not go out of my way for them(well, maybe for animals) but I'm not going to try and hurt them either. If this makes any sense, there's no obstacle to overcome there. I would just be exerting power over the powerless. It does nothing for me, and in some cases it disgusts me, because of how low it is. Torturing an animal, a child, someone's grandfather or grandmother is just tasteless and beneath me. It shows that the person doing it is just a petty tyrant, the kind of person who'd break something just so others couldn't have it. They have no ambition.
I much prefer to work someone over to the point that they'll want me to do what I do. Moving their "will not cross" line slightly and slightly further, edging them into a mindset conducive to my wants.
What you say about power and the potential for abuse makes perfect sense and is honorable. And no worries, a code isn't cliche if it works. The last paragraph just makes me smile to be honest as ethics often get in the way.
What is your life ambition? Do you have something in mind?
I would like to be a Professor of European History, specializing in Germanic history & culture.
Excellent choice. The Germans have done a huge amount intellectually for the past two centuries. Best of luck.
Mmm, I find it interesting that 90% of the world's most groundbreaking philosophers tended to be German. So were most of the great composers of European music. German chemical industry was the bedrock of modern medicine. An extremely disproportionate amount of the modern world seems to have German roots.
