Interview with a psychopath

[mainliner]

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.

ok

 

[mainliner]

You should reread that. It is animal suffering he doesn't care about.

Have you ever explored HINAYANA Buddhism? You strike me as extremely intelligent, considering your lack of empathy (in the context of "not really feeling" or "empty bias" or "don't care") - I am curious how you learned so much to the point that you could be a Professional lecturer on (History, whatever)? What was the "secret" to your "study"? Books?

You seem sort of Buddhist in one way...

The cane story was interesting. I have known every sort of person imaginable and unimaginable, including what might fit into socio-psycho in "paths" or boxes, but the later type did not fit into an "empty empathy" model, they did engage a lot with others though in the example of one he was convinced the government or CIA types were watching him. You do not fit that model.

But the cane immediately made me think of a (originally) New York based cult leader who started off becoming sort of a "street celebrity" who could debate with anyone, with an audience watching as his style became so popular, and always, always defeated the other. He had one bad leg and was often in pain and went about using a cane. I guess you could call him a "sick genius" because his ability to "mind connect" by way of words and speech while at the same depersonalizing them, to the gullible he was so effective at this that he became a cult leader with a commune out in the snowy mountains and went about with armed guards and in a car with his huge, pet German shepherds, would get into trouble and get in the news but eventually ended up in prison.

One day someone in the prison broke his cane. Suddenly, as he told the media/news, in his own words and using the same word 'empathy', these might not be exact words but approximate:

"... after that sassy monkey broke my cane, I had a revelation. I realized that at some point very early in my life, the cane and myself, that thing called 'I', switched places. The cane became me, and I became the cane...."

"...but the cane has no feeling. And when I became the cane, that explained it. I lost my empathy when I became the cane..."

"...It can hold a cripple up, and in one sense we are all cripples. There is a giant cane that also holds the entire world up..."

"...but one day the world may call the cane great. They will worship the cane. Because it holds the crippled world up..."

"...They will worship the cane. And by mistake, pooof... they become the cane..."

"... and have lost their empathy."

"...The cane is just, a cane, empty.... If you let the cane become you, and you the cane, the next thing you know you're calling yourself a Buddhist."

Something like that.

I looked into Buddhism. But I'm far too materialist to go down that path. I like material things, I think they make life worth living.

You strike me as extremely intelligent, considering your lack of empathy (in the context of "not really feeling" or "empty bias" or "don't care") - I am curious how you learned so much to the point that you could be a Professional lecturer on (History, whatever)?

I did not say I was a lecturer, I just said I would like to be one. Unless you're talking about what I've done on the forums, in that case, just obsession. I have to keep myself occupied, and Germanic culture & history has always pulled me on an extremely deep and incredibly strong level. That's a lot of the reason I identify as Asatru/Norse Pagan. It is about fighting despite knowing full well you're going to lose.

Life is like that in a lot of ways. There may not be a world-serpent or a wolf to swallow the sun & moon, but I can have my own personal Gotterdammerung or Ragnarok without the Frost Giants and Surtr's flaming-sword. We all die. Might as well die in a way that they will remember.

Interesting story. You wouldn't happen to recall his name or the name of his group would you?

 

[ShivaFan]

I do, but he was a religious "leader" (not mine!) and his followers might come after me.

Send me his name through private convo.

 

[Nietzsche]

I am a little drunk. So here's some poetry.

In darkness I dwell,
The light I defy,
The blood of Christ I will drink and His God I defy,.
Power be my Sword, lies be my Shield,
All those you have Saved I shall Kill
When Your Blood runs Black in the Moonlight
I shall take reprieve
And soon 'night

 

[ShivaFan]

I will send you the name of the person, but he isn't your type and being he is a religious sect and has a long history of issues with the authorities and such I wouldn't advise that you contact his followers. He is dead, by the way. He died a few years ago from a failed kidney.

Danke schoen.

You mentioned about suffering being something you get off on. Is the amount of pleasure you derive from it proportional to the 'power' of the one suffering?
I guess I'm trying to reconcile your comments about not inflicting suffering on the young, old, animals, etc.

For example...I dunno...if you have the ability to inflict mental suffering on someone like Rupert Murdoch, just in terms of being an older person who holds power still (if not physical) would that be appealing?

I don't understand it entirely myself, but I feel like it's about being sporting. It's the same reason someone who genuinely enjoys hunting tries to keep the playing field reasonably even.

I'd enjoy the **** out of that but for reasons totally unrelated to my sexual cravings.

Hmmm...I might be able to understand that. I'm guessing you're a fairly analytical type, yes? So your brain is unlikely to let you enjoy the moment when you know you're 'cheating'. No challenge.

LOL! Yeah, okay. And obviously just using him as an example of an older person with power.

Basically. Like any other game, if you really enjoy it, the one person you'll never let cheat at it is yourself. If anything you'll give yourself handicaps to squeeze a bit more out of it.

LOL! Yeah, okay. And obviously just using him as an example of an older person with power.

Mm. Serious-talk time: I couldn't bring myself to do anything physical, but I wouldn't want to either. If I have him in a position where I'm the one who decides where our visit goes, I've already gotten what I wanted. I don't need to touch him. I've already taken what he values most and he knows it.

**** I love your ego.

I think you're in dire need of ***** and estrogen, take some of the woman mojo and you'll have all sorts of feels.

It's this ****ing nurture and feel society that is at work. You should feel bad or sympathetic and all and fear, people are sheltered into feeling fear. I try to go along with the facts of nature - life and death, fight or flight. Psychology and particularly psychiatry, while I patiently abide by them, they seem like total bull****,; along with much of the medical industry not knowing what the **** they're doing.

Then there's politics, Take a good look at how routine genocide is. Once a government devalues it's citizens it's time to fire up the furnaces and burn the gas bill.

Get laid stat.

I get sex when I want it.

Good, you like women, I didn't know if they disgusted you or you needed to come out here as well.

Later, it's to early for this troll trap of a website.

But I'll be back when I'm good and **** hammered to talk about the Lord.

What does your social life look like? Do you have a lot of friends? Or are you more of a loner? Were you charged with a crime for what you did to that person's knee? Do you have a girlfriend? Do you have a job? If so, what do you do? Would you call yourself optimistic or pessimistic about your future?

 

[dgirl1986]

Great thread

 

[Nietzsche]

What does your social life look like? Do you have a lot of friends?

Some? What constitutes "a lot"?

Or are you more of a loner?

Individuals can be fine, groups I'm not fond of.

Were you charged with a crime for what you did to that person's knee?

No. The pricks had a history of, well, being dickheads. No one was exactly eager to go to bat for them.

Do you have a girlfriend?

No. I've got several women who're happy to have some fun with, though.

Do you have a job? If so, what do you do?

No. Disability. I'd like to teach, though.

Would you call yourself optimistic or pessimistic about your future?

I don't think it matters, really.
