“cope”

This is another reason for wanting to leave this world: the unthinking masses masquerading as “thinkers” because they took pills that are black.

Apart from being grammatically fishy, as Andy Nowicki once pointed out, labeling everything but fornication “cope” is not even fit for a robot, an unthinking machine.

I could make the opposite case and claim that all the men who are eagerly at work upping their “notch counts” — I already remarked how vulgar all this lingo is — are afraid of death, trying to ignore its importance.

For we all have to face death at some point, it cannot be escaped. If we end up in the void, then nothing matters anyway: both, someone who dedicated his life helping people and a mass murderer will end up in nothingness.

Some atheists claim that yes, it’s all meaningless, deal with it. Not seeing that the statement it’s all meaningless lacks any meaning, too. (And back as an atheist I did deal with it, meaning I hanged myself, which is the only honest response.)

Still, were this the case, what’s the point? Even a hedonist will have to face up to death at some point — in other words, the fornicator is just “coping” with his sexual decadence to ignore his mortality, which is impossible.

The only one not coping, in this world view, would be the suicide who ends it all on his own terms — a choice I certainly would defend were I not a Christian, which is the only real reason not to do it.

The hedonists have wrecked our culture — and for what? Their lust and pleasure is gone, it’s fleeting, but the consequences we still have to live with: a horribly broken culture, fatherless and obsessed with work, sex, money, travel. “Living in the moment” types, or, as Andy Nowicki labels it in Death By Dream Girl, part 2: Ascension, a “puerile ‘carpe diem’” mindset.

To quote Don Colacho again:

Sex does not solve even sexual problems.

When the modern consciousness suspends its economic routines, it only oscillates between political anguish and sexual obsession.

To liberate man is to subject him to greed and sex.

To learn that the most valuable goods are the least rare requires a long apprenticeship.

After seeing work exploit and demolish the world, laziness seems like the mother of the virtues.

We spend a life trying to understand what a stranger understands at a glance: that we are just as insignificant as the rest.

We live because we do not view ourselves with the same eyes with which everybody else views us.

Modern man’s life oscillates between two poles: business and sex.

Leftists and rightists merely argue about who is to have possession of industrial society.
The reactionary longs for its death.

The modern world will not be punished.
It is the punishment.
