I'm willing to bet nothing happens. On account of the average American being a lazy coward who can't connect cause and effect.

Recollecting that I am subject to aging, sickness, death, and loss... that is some classic shit right there.

One who has crossed over sensuality here,
the chain in the world so hard to get past,
grieves not, nor hopes;
they’ve cut the strings, they’re no longer bound.

People don't understand that this country is in a state of terminal chudification. There isn't going to be a reconstruction. We have over three years left of this. Possibly even longer!

It doesn't matter lol. The modal american probably has a nazi or nazi-adjacent tattoo or knows someone who does

That's why neither teachers nor nurses are blue collar.

Nothing matters. Nothing matters! Vote for the chud. Fuck it. Maybe he'll win!

Flashback to when my roommate's girlfriend watched Zeitgeist and thereafter was manically telling me "don't you get it? advertising only exists to *sell* us things we don't *need*!"

Poverty is a result of people's accumulated negative kamma from their countless past lives

...for one who sees the origin of the world as it really is with correct wisdom, there is no notion of nonexistence in regard to the world. And for one who sees the cessation of the world as it really is with correct wisdom, there is no notion of existence in regard to the world.

Ok but you should stop posting there though

I see what you mean. I guess certain things are just like that i.e. sex, entertainment. Maybe that's why the Buddha put abstaining from music under the seventh precept.

Sense pleasures are unfulfilling you say. Lemme tell you about this guy named Gotama, who lives 2600 years ago, who had a few things to say about that...

When a worldling experiences painful physical feelings they sorrow and wail and lament, beating their breast and falling into confusion. They experience two feelings: physical and mental.

It’s like a person who is struck with an arrow, only to be struck with a second arrow.

Yeah because it sucks. It's depressing. No one wants to reflect on that.
