The fact that we have the capacity to choose means we're not mindless beasts destined to kill each other. We don't need a supreme authority to tell us not to; having Empathy is a common thing in almost every human. When we went over the book back when I was still in college, my professor contrasted Leviathan with a book written by another individual I think a century later, I can't remember the name of it at the moment but if I do I'll mention it, but it basically was the exact opposite of Hobbe's line of thinking. We are though
Humans are inherently violent, we just have the capacity to choose to behave otherwise.

No, I had plenty to last me already. But you really wanted me to go, so now I have enough to last me even more because I have that on top of what I already had. Why did you buy 2 weeks worth of groceries? Are you that scared?

That doesn't make it anymore true though. It's still factually wrong. Really not that surprising, since he was writing in the aftermath of the Civil War.

There's no point since she wasn't there and I now have enough groceries to last me two weeks. Ok make a thread too

At first, the idea of a central absolute government makes sense because of things such as civil war and unrest since that's the point in having one. However the book goes on to say that man in inherently violent against himself, which is absolute bullshit. And says we HAVE to be part of the social contract to keep us from killing each other; which is once again, bullshit. You don't understand Hobbes.

Ugh fine, I'll go. But if you man up and ask her next time you won't be eating out alone. Know what I'm saying?

I'm being serious! I have plenty of food when it's taken into account that I eat out almost every night. Cat food doesn't count.

Not good enough, I want his smugness brought down a level and ignoring him would give him an unjustified sense of winning. There's some irony there then. This isn't like having somebody follow you around in person and nag you. On the internet if you want to shut somebody up all you have to do is pay no mind.

There's something that goes on in our brains that makes us want to be the one that shuts him up. You know you don't even have to reply to him let alone even read his posts if you don't want to right? It's not like you're being forced to read them.
On that topic I can't really say that I get people posting that they're happy he can't post for the time being. Has it ever occurred to just not pay attention to the posts you don't like very much?

There's a really good possibility I wouldn't even see her, why would I be scared? lmao scared

Chally is(was?) one of the best users we have on here.
Throw Das to the wolves, it'll guarantee our safety from the site being shut down for illegal activity.

Finally we can have this thread without Verb coming and calling everyone a scumbag for having these beliefs.
The idea of being isolated if you have enough money to live the rest of your days alone is not a bad thing. Anyone who says otherwise needs to throw away their copy of The Leviathan; it was written by an Authoritarian hack who only saw people as either cattle or wolves. You are NOT obligated to care for your neighbor and living as detached from society as possible gives you a freedom you'll never get from them.
And saying you have to forgo the currency of the nearest society as well is intentionally being unfair and trying to punish the person for not conforming with your social rules. Boohoo, a person found a way to live on their own and not have to deal with the bullshit of contributing to whatever the nearest town wants, get over it. Under that logic, foreigners and tourists shouldn't be allowed to use the local currency either because they're also not paying taxes.

So when their entire operation is based on lying to us, now of all times I'm supposed to believe them? Lying is their business. It baffles me how people don't understand how this works.

He doesn't get inaugurated until the 20th, and even after that expect for this to not stop from people that want him dead for proving them wrong when they're not shouting "IT WAS HER TTUURRNN!!!!" it's only going to get louder from here. You guys were supposed to have your elections and be done with this shit.

Empire is still the best. There was character growth, steady story development, a more unraveling plot, and can be appreciated in any era of ours.

Looks like they already are: https://twitter.com/BraddJaffy/status/819208142164754432/photo/1https://twitter.com/jaketapper/status/819187673961287681I think we can now safely say that this story, is bullshit. I think that buzzfeed and any other trigger happy retards that decided to rush this out without the slightest bit of double-checking are going to be eating a three course meal of hats, humble pie and crow.
Whilst it remains to be seen if trump really does like to go to the cinema with a crowd of hookers to watch chinese cartoons, I sincerely hope that this is a bit of memery from /pol/. Not because the god-emperor is infallible (he is) but because watching buzzfeed crash and burn, with the CIA further disgracing themselves, is far too entertaining of a possibility to turn down.

Wasn't the entire opposition to the Iraq war all about the WMDs not existing? I haven't read the declassified document from the CIA but everyone pretty much said that WMDs didn't exist. There were WMDs, and Hussein committed genocide with chemical weapons several years prior tho
See: Operation Avarice

And I've explained that whatever Russia wants to do wont be anything serious. Bring themselves back up economically by circumventing sanctions after Crimea? Well, those sanctions are doing more harm than good anyways since it's also hurting the Crimean people as well. Help Assad win the civil war in Syria? Why should we care about the Middle East? It's caused us nothing but trouble for ages, it's a lost cause. Invade more territory? Never going to happen. Make him Putin's bitch and stop them from intervening in a place Russia wants to go maybe?
