And the main problem with a technocracy is when you get people with a god complex in charge and they disregard the working class altogether, simply because they are smarter, and therefore believe they are superior. Smarter people are more inclined to this sort of thing.

 

And not having prisons is a stupid idea.

ross, mather is clearly trolling, just ignore him

I don't think he is...which is fairly concerning.

I am not trolling.

 

And modern politicians are more likely to neglect the working class.

I'm more or less done with the argument.

 

It's fairly clear that we're both stubborn and that this is getting nowhere, so, disturbed as I am by your notion of justice, I call a truce.

the point is his subconcious is trolling

Dungeonal, you are the only one who have trolled recently, trolling is something done to annoy others and is never useful, like your accusations.

 

Truce accepted.

Fortress-ruining flood averted.

Why did the DF thread have to be moved outta here? :(

I asked for it to be moved, trying to increase exposure.

 

Didn't work, thread died.

trolling is often useful

 

the problem is you just sperge everywhere and expect everyone to put you on an intellectual and emotional pedestal and seem to think that telling us/using yourself in your examples of why emotions are useless is a good thing

If you would actually read all the posts you would realize that I often use myself as a comparison only when asked to, like here where Ross asked me if I would like to be without emotions.

Mather says "emotions are useless because I am sadface :("

*"Emotions are something you could often do without, especially if like me your life is a downward curve as of recent."

You know that lobotomies are probaly permanent, right?

Mather, how can you remeber something without emotions? You can't actually remember anything, because emotions are basically what the mind is using to inform you whats hapening at the time. Pain, fear, happyness, joy. They tinge the memories of a man with sweet delectable joy, the simple joy of remembering somthing to be proud of. Or they remind a man what they should not do.. For the experience of a memory will remind them why. And that experience requires emotions.. So, no emotions, no memories.

They are. They involve destroying part of the frontal lobe.

 

Earth, senses=/=emotions.

And what do senses feed? Emotions. Taste, the hatred of something to bitter or too sweet, and something you absolutley love. Smell, really disgusting smells cause people to hate it, and good smells people love. Touch.. I'm not going into that one, because people are going to take it the wrong way, or i'll mess it up. Hearing, the apreciationof good music, and the annoyance of an ear bleeding tune.. And sight, the viewof a panorama of epic proportions, or a disgusting fat man in tights.

Emotions are imagined, senses are experieced.

Emotions are imagined my ass. You are trolling for no reason, Mather. I hope you realize i can barely remember anything, simply because my memory sucks ass. And this saddens me, because of what i could remember, to learn from my mistakes, to learn why this or that happened. Emotions lost not in days or hours, but in mere seconds of experiencing them. And because of that, my other senses have dulled, i can't hear well, my eye sight fades in and out, i can't actually feel anything touching my skin most of the time, i can't taste anything without it beiing extremley spicy or somthing, and other things besides. Being without emotions is not paradise, it is a hell that you live through the rest of your life, damned to near nothingness, serving no purpose, just a waste of space. If you love being that, then go ahead, lose your emotions, your memories, and all you hold dear.

You can neither hate nor love to be without emotions, because hate and love are emotions, what you described seems like a bad case of a memory disorder.

Emotions exist only in our minds, they are not tangible, unlike memories and they are not directly created by outside sources, like senses. They are our mind's interpretation of occurances.

You are a [bleep]ing idiot man. I'm done talking with you.

Good, since you were mixing up things pretty badly there, this way you won't break your keyboard writing stuff that doesn't make sense.

You starting this entire argument makes no sense. Your responses make no sense. You just want to tavern to come to life again, trying to bring it back to life with trolling, trying to somehow be a thread necromancer doing the big leap to forum necromancer. You are a self-centered condencending ASS who just wants us to think he's so flipping great that we should bow down to the all [bleep]ing powerfull mather. Douche.

Nope, I just know how the human mind works.

Hah, my ass. You don't know how the mind works. The best scientists on the subject don't even know how half the mind works. You telling me that you found out somthing EVERYONE else on the planet couldn't figure out means that you are fitting my description and exceeding it.
