I’m sorry, I don’t mean to be provocative but I’ve given this a lot of thought over the years. This earth is of course hell (or something like that), that cannot be denied, it is riddled with bad things happening constantly, some of it seeps through your TV and it just washes over you. You see it, yet you do nothing. Â Oh, you might feel upset by it but the act of feeling upset does not qualify you as a good person in itself. I too see it, and I do nothing, what can we do? Really, what can we do? Â We can’t do anything because this is hell and that’s how it is.Â
To anyone who is not suicidal;  The very fact that you can live in any kind of peace in this place, knowing that right now thousands of people are being brutally treated by one of your fellow men, disgusts me. I’m sure you’re appalled that I say that and you take great offense. But look at it on a much smaller scale;  if you knew there was a building somewhere down town that houses pedophila and sadistic torture, and you knew that half the people in the building don’t actually commit the crime but they pay money into the system and live off the food bought by that system and sleep under the same roof as the perpetrators, would you consider them just as evil as the hands on folk?  yes you would! It’s hypocritical!  We all live in a world that we know is riddled with evil, we know it’s happening right now, but all we really care about is our own well-being and finding our f@cking purpose! If anything, that can make us more evil, the blatant disregard for what is happening here., as long as you find your own little bit of calming peace in this hell hole it will all be okay.Â
This species, our species, us, we are bad. Okay, you yourself might not think of yourself as bad, because you  say that you hate this bad thing and you wish you could do something about it. But you can’t because you’re a part of it. Don’t you see?? Right now,  you could all be banging on the right doors demanding to know for instance, where the pedophiles live in the country, but you don’t do you. And some of you may tell yourself all that bullsh1t about what good would that do, it would only create more violence – the reason you tell yourself that is because you prefer for the violence to not be seen by your own precious eyes, ruining your own precious world. You don’t even have to do anything hands on yourself like banging on doors or protesting against whatever, you could simply go on strike, if we all went on strike the world would stop! Yes it would start a war, and you don’t want to fight, you want to stay cosy, so that’s my point. The devil has made you a little cosy bed and you want to lie in it. You prefer to stay home in comfort and maybe even believe in your ‘god’ the one who will save you from all this. What the f@ck do you need saving from? Your cosy bed?? Don’t you think for one second that your f@cking purpose as a good citizen is to fight against the evil?  No, that would upset your precious little mind.
Anyone that lives here and is not prepared to risk their own lives by fighting against this evil, is evil themselves. We’re all a part of it and until we see that we will suffer and suffer and suffer. You fools!!
This evil has brainwashed you in so many ways. Evil is clever. You all probably think that it’s bad to fight against anything!! You’re all so passive, the evil tells you that if you just tow the line and look the other way, your life can be peaceful, you will be rewarded with little trinkets and some ‘peace’, you are told that if you retaliate or flag up the wrong doings, you will be a bad person, and you will suffer. But are you really happy? Where’s your inner happiness? You will never find happiness here the way it is because it belongs to evil. You can try to ignore it as much as you like and you can do such a good job of that but you will never fool your insides. That’s why you can’t sleep too good, that’s why you get sick sometimes, that’s why you have fears, and anxiety, and that’s why you desperately try to find love in places it can’t be found – because love is something you DO, not something you GET, and love is not simply being with the person of your dreams, or saying nice things to people, it’s physically saving people’s lives from evil, that’s love!! You have been sold a notion of love by evil, the notion that you can find it in somebody else, not much work involved, just sit back, make sure you hair and makeup is done, oh and a good job and a car could help too!! As humans we all need love and that’s why we’re suffering, we will never find it cause it’s not something that can be found in a bar or online, it’s in saving a persons life, it’s in the reward you get from that. From fighting evil.
I am not religious, I have a handful of possible theories about life that are all possible and plausible, but really they all amount in the end to the same thing. Pretty much all religions say there will be some form of armageddon, most people believe that this war is the coming of a messiah or something similar. This war here on earth, this end, or this armageddon is a war of men – good and evil. Evil is most definitely winning and the good people have proved themselves to be pretty useless against it. So, all the good people are waiting for someone to come out of the sky and ‘save them’ ?? Seriously?? Maybe this thing out of the sky might save all the poor victims but I doubt he will save the bystanders! The people who fed off this corrupt earth and turned a blind eye to the evil. No way. I do wish I could be there to see the faces of all you people who face your god one day and he asks you why you chose to ignore and allow the evil to happen, when he supplied you with all the tools yourself to fight against it. Why, you sold out on him. On yourselves. Why you corrupted your own religious or personal beliefs to a way that was more comfortable to you, such as just thinking ‘pure thoughts’ and believing in your purpose, any purpose other than the one that makes you actually do something and maybe, god forbid, risk loosing your own possessions or life or wellbeing, and all that garbage, the lazy mans philosophy!
The only people who are not evil here are the ones who are prepared to lose everything, even their lives, fighting it, or the ones who check out of this filthy place. Anyone who stays is succumbing and feeding the beast.
Now you can all go back and read your papers now, or have a w@nk, or a nice hot bubble bath because reading this blog is enough drama for you all today. Sleep well now!!!!

I could not agree more!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my I can’t believe what you have wrote, you basically have just hit the nail on the head as to why I am suicidal, I HATE it here and you have just put into words why that is so much better than I could do.
Where are you? I am in the UK, I would love to be in contact with you, would you be interested?
Hello Splinter, I am not offended at all by your post, it has stirred up many different emotions inside me but I guess it’s meant to. I feel your frustration so well, you are brave to say these things and I have to say agree with you. I have had feelings that I have been trying to explain for years now, mixtures of failure, of shame and I never really understood why, I always thought that I should have a better job or a better love life or give to charity more or something, but your post seems to have struck a chord with me.
I am gladly willing to give my life to try to change the world for the better but I don’t know how. And I would really love to meet with people who have this way of thinking too. I am not scared of death, but I am scared of this life.
You say in your post that there is nothing you or anyone can do, do you really think that? Are you interested in being in contact?
This is the best thing I have read in ages, or ever. So so true, blunt and harsh but true and the truth hurts. Everyone is saying that we are entering a huge change on this planet and your words are like music to my ears because no-one seems to be rising up, except stupid extremists who seem just as hell bent on destruction as the evil we are facing, and in the name if their god. I agree that NO God has EVER expected his people to be lazy weak and passive and expect to be saved, especially if they have done nothing themselves.
You should post your email addy, you can make some good friends, I for one, would be interested to know someone like you.
I agree that no god or even the soul of any person wants to lay dormant and be an observer of evil and you can’t call this planet anything else but evil. I agree that by doing nothing, and living off this place is being an active person in all the bad. People kid themselves that they are good coz it makes them feel good to believe that. You need to put your money where your mouth is!
wow reading this has shook me up! you’re so right, I applaud you x
Mate, you just described in one fell swoop the reason for my being suicidal. I was beginning to feel like I was deranged for seeing things this way when no-one else seems to give a shit, or if they do appear to give a shit it’s only passively. Everyone has sold their soul to the devil, funny thing is, try saying that to the religious people, they honestly believe that all they have to do is sit and live in luxury here and ignore what’s going on because God will save em, they just don’t see how disgusting that makes them.
This is going to be hard to read for a lot of people. You have some very valid points but I think it’s awful to say that people are evil because they don’t do anything, there is nothing anyone can do, what do you suggest? You only end up in jail or dead if you turn against the ones that run the country. But then I suppose that is what you are saying, that you either chose to or not based on those fears. Yes then, I suppose we do all chose to stay warm and safe as apposed to actively do something, but we are all just as scared of the evil as the other victims, we are all trapped by them. I suppose that this ‘purpose’ we are all looking for though is not to be found in the material world, like you said, that will never satisfy us because it’s not really real is it? Only true love is real, like you say. So yes, I suppose we have all ‘sold out’ but it’s such a horrific thought I feel really upset now. Oh I just don’t know . .
This corresponds with another post on here about it only seeming like good people are killing themselves, damn right good people are killing themselves because good people can’t survive here and there’s not enough of them to join up and rise up against the bad, the bad is everywhere and it’s hidden in supposedly good people too. I’m not knocking all religions or people who believe in God, I waver in and out of these beliefs myself, but I am knocking and laying equal blame at the doors of those who hide behind their beliefs, using the bullshit that God will save them in the end. Every human being was built with knowing right from wrong and being equipped to help and make a difference to the world to prevent evil from taking over – no God wants his followers to be idle. Yet at the same time, these people take from this world, this corrupt and evil world. Like you say, all it takes is to go on strike as a human and actually stand up for what you believe in, instead of just talking the talk, walk the walk!
But the reason people don’t is not because of their beliefs, it’s because they don’t want to upset their comfort. And you’re right too about it all being the reason we don’t sleep very well and we suffer mentally, we are not fulfilling our purposes – our purposes are not the bullshit purposes that this world will have you believe, if they were then why do these people still kill themselves even after they have achieved it? Everyone wants a purpose but as long as it only enhances their lives and doesn’t take from their lives then they’re happy. So YES, everyone who is happy here IS evil, no 2 ways about it. I hate this place and most in it, but on rare occasions like this I see that there IS still some hope and good left.
Good work man
too right only evil selfish ruthless people can live here, it’s a hell hole, any decent person is better off dead. It makes me sick, even the ones that think they are good, they actually believe that just cause they are not actually doing anything, I personally think those people are the worst ones! For my part, I don’t sleep, I have a totally messed up head and I have no real alternative but to kill myself, I simply can’t be here knowing what I know and it makes me worse that I see people doing quite well.
Do you think if God came down and paid a visit he would ‘save’ all the ones who have been aware of all the violence and cruelty and yet still not only continued to live here amongst them, but pay into that system, funded it, and taken from it, and even managed to smile and enjoy some aspects of it. How can anyone even go and enjoy the nature that’s left on this planet, how can they stand there and feel joy from that KNOWING that so many people at exactly the same time are suffering immeasurable pain? It’s greedy and selfish and it makes me sick.
Jesus apparently gave his own life to save others, surely that’s a hint? you’re life is not your own, it’s selfish and stupid to think that it is. It’s a gift and it is short, and I believe that you are expected to use it to the fullest and that does not mean making money, buying things and breeding into it endlessly, nor does it mean that your purpose is to just ‘believe’ what good is just believing? If you don’t use this life wisely, you just grow old and incapable and ill and basically rot away, you are supposed to be doing something !!
Waste of time though telling the zombies on this planet anything, they’re all sacred shitless.
dominqueT : hey I love your perspective on your last paragraph about our life is a “gift”, and have to use it to the fullest.
however, isn’t the Reality sometimes, no, often sad, in that there are soo many many people who actually believe that “living to the fullest” means either:
1. you get as much $$$$$ (money) as much as possible, only for YOURself, instead of viewing it as a TOOL, to do what every human being *KNOW* deep inside utmost heart what are the GOOD, benevolent, sincere things to do.
2. there are currently seemingly an ever-increasing ads & self-help books or articles or blogs (wow!) that seems to advocate people, especially young people nowadays to “living to the fullest” by, unfortunately, PARTYing without end, go spend $$$$ by “traveling the world”, spending on the most ‘EXTREME’ sports, or challenges, or dining in the sky, or any whatever stupid ‘luxurious’ entertainments or other things,..instead of -again- using their money, hand in hand together, to DO something, to help alleviate the pain of the poors & underprivileged ones.
If the idea of “doing something” or “living to the fullest” is already wrong,
then NO wonder that it seems that the so-called ‘good, innocent’ people seems to *support* the ‘evil’ !
Really nice post/thread btw. very eye-opening!
thank you for sharing this, and putting an ‘inception’ to my mind.
For me personally, this is the reason I am suicidal. I honestly believe that by just going through the motions in this world is supporting the corrupt and vile system. To be a good person is to have nothing to do with evil whatsoever, so just by being here I feel I am failing. My human life is the sacrifice that I will make to show that I am apposed to this evil world. It is this evil world that has made us fear death – God never taught us to be precious about our lives, he just told us to use them wisely, to find a purpose and to fulfill that, not to be idle and certainly not to be passive participants in wrongdoings.
Imagine if you sent your child to a school of debauchery in the hope that he would change it somehow and show the other kids how to be good to each other etc, but instead he ended up liking it there and not wanting to come back.
Good post. The best!
Splinter: hands down to you my friend. At last, someone who speaks the truth! Someone who really connects with how people are feeling on here.
It’s been questioned before on here countless times why all these suicidal people seem like good cookies and quite smart too . . . . yeah of course they are smart and good, what other sort of people would wanna check out of this Hotel California??
Sad thing is though, as I’m sure you’re already fully aware, most people are zombies in this world. Despite the fact that they know they are deeply unhappy or at east anxious, they chose to cover that up with a watered down notion of God or religion, even the really bad people are falling down a rabbit hole, they too are scared, that’s why they keep feeding themselves with more and more stuff – it NEVER fills you up, it NEVER makes you happy, because it’s not the natural way for a person to be. The natural way for a person to be is in peace and pure love, only that fills you up, but that will never be experienced here.
A personal belief of mine, and it’s not something that I like to share on here in case it comes across as if I’m encouraging anyone to kill themselves – I”M NOT – I’m merely talking about myself here and my situation and where I’m at . . . I too believe that we have a purpose to be here, but that purpose gets buried under all the shit of this world, but we all still feel it and that’s why we never feel we’ve found it. I believe my purpose is to fight evil and that’s why I have struggled all my life because basically I’m alone on that and so stand no chance. Oh of course you get the idiots who say they too wanna fight evil and by that they mean saying the right things and helping a old neighbour or giving to the poor, but like you say, they would never really sacrifice anything. I don’t mean that they are idiots for helping people in this way, I mean that they are idiots to think that that is the limitation of their purpose. I would sacrifice, and that’s a lonely place to be. So if I cannot fulfill my purpose here, I feel that I must return back to my source, because staying here, like you have said, is feeding the beast. It’s the beast that makes you fear death, he tries anything to get you to stay here for the more slaves keeping him alive, the bigger and stronger he gets! I don’t fear death, I don’t think human life is all I am capable of, I feel much bigger than that and I have no fear of leaving this body and moving on the something more pure.
I just burst into tears when I read this, thank god that there is someone talking this way I felt so alone xxxxx
Hey Splinter, i could sure do with someone like you in my life! You speak from my heart. Please put an email address up, don’t just give up and go right now, I would love to speak with you.
I reckon this is the probably the first time that someone has spoken on here in a language that we can understand and feel. Although people offering kind words are sweet for trying, they lack any understanding as to why so many people feel this way, instead they think that by doing something with your life like writing poetry or helping a friend is the the whole point of your existence. Just because they chose to blank out the evil, doesn’t mean that anyone else should do the same.
Why the heck shouldn’t people kill themselves due to the fact that they want no involvement with evil? (I too hate that word but what the heck) In fact, trying to persuade someone to continue being here is a form of betrayal – unless of course the suicidal person has material problems (such as money matter or a court case or the death of a loved one or unrequited love etc) then of course they are still a part of this world and should try to fix those things or see above them and continue their life here. But once a person has seen the truth and it is that that makes me want out, then no-one here can ‘fix’ that. I too think that it could very well be god or a higher purpose calling you. All I do know for sure, that anything calling you to stay here is the devil, but you only know that if you know the truth.
Yeah Splinter,I too would like very much to be in touch with you. Ever thought about setting up a group account and we could all talk regularly, you seem to have brought together some like-minded, good and smart people, this could only be a good thing hey?
Yes, it’s like everyone else I know has blinders on and cannot see the real truth.
Then again, if people didn’t “buy in” and everyone spent their effort to fight the evil, then I’d likely wouldn’t have this fancy laptop and internet connection to read your post and realize how true it really is. I guess that’s you’re point – I’m just as much a part of the system that makes this world just plain wrong. No wonder I want so desperately to check out and have nothing more to do with it.
Human nature exists only to destroy itself, you don’t see any other inhabitants of this planet decimate their environment, kill and maim each other in the name of religion or greed or power, no other species has the ability to do so much harm, well maybe except lions because they are exceedingly tough 🙂
Humans have the power to do so much good, just no will power to collectively do so. Free will.
G1974: You are wrong that human nature only exists to destroy itself! That’s what you are being led to believe. If that was the case then we would all be comfortable with it wouldn’t we? Even the ones who are doing the physical destroying are not comfortable. We are not in the natural state of man, we have suppressed our natural state and that’s why we are riddled with ‘mental trauma’s, mental illnesses, unrest and anxieties.’ When man fully emerged over fifty thousand years ago, he was not the brutal, destructive and cruel being that he is today. It is not evolution, that is what you are taught to believe.
Fear is the mind killer, that’s how we are all controlled. To repress rebellion is to maintain the status quo, a condition which blinds the mortal creature in a state of intellectual and physical slavery. But it is impossible to chain man by slaving just his body; the mind must also be held, and to accomplish this, fear is the weapon. The common man must fear life, fear death, fear God, fear the devil, and fear most the overlords, the keepers of his destiny. How can this be the natural state of man? Most of us, if not all of us, lack any security within and that’s how it is meant to be now. Order in this world is not an organic order of discipline and passion, it is the boot stamping in the face of humanity forever.
I can agree on some level in your evolution excuse, in so much that it is written in the stars (or however you wish to see it) that this is what will happen. But I believe it is also written in the stars that only MAN himself can change that, and that one day he will. But for now, evil is ruling over this planet and over human life and something has to awaken him eventually. That wont be today and it certainly wont be soon, things have to get so much worse before they get better. Which is why I have posted on this site to all the people who are experiencing this deep trauma of sorts and feel their only way is to check out. Rather than be a tool in this evil machine, it could very well be the only way and I just want to throw the notion in the air here, that ‘saving’ someone’s human life, by suggesting that they stay here and contribute to this thing is immoral, and that notion could very well be turned back onto that ‘helper’, the person who is blinded and so controlled that he truly believes he is helping someone who is wanting to escape the asylum. Death awaits us all at some stage. Do you chose the long way of further suffering and slavery or do you chose your own escape? And death is only an escape from this realm, you have been taught to fear death as the ultimate end of all things, that’s not the truth. Your physical human body is only housing a greater spirit that is currently being suffocated, your spirit is eternal. This human life COULD be great, but currently it is ruled by evil and you are a slave to that and as long as you continue to fund this beast, you will NEVER find peace or your purpose.
Anyway, thanks guys for your responses, I didn’t expect such a good response to tell you the truth. I feel flattered that anyone wants contact with me but I don’t see what that will achieve to be honest. I have nothing to give anyone, I am at the end of my line, like some others on here, there isn’t really much else to say about that, and conversations online with you guys isn’t going to keep me here any longer. I’ve decided to do, instead of talk.
Good luck everyone in your escape in whatever means you chose that to be.
Hi again Splinter, thanks for coming back on and responding. I appreciate that you don’t want to be in contact. I just want you to know that you are not alone in this thinking (as you can clearly see) and I for one, have been moved deeply by your post. It was something that I already knew but kept to myself because it sounded to extreme to say out loud. I’m actually beginning to feel lucky for feeling the way I do and I know now more than ever what I need to do. I am dealing head on with this fear that has been injected into me.
🙂 Interesting posts. Got me thinking! Are we all evil….? Perhaps maybe! Perhaps Not! Depends on your definition of evil. I feel that we all posess ‘bad’ or negative qualities. However that does not make everyone a horrible person. But I agree that most people try their best to ignore the evil that exists in the world and hide behind religion. But if your religion tells you to focus solely on you and your purpose and not having regards for any or everyone else who are hurting…..then you have got to be kidding me. I am in no way religious, however I solely believe in the truth of the kingdom of God. So as a chrisitan, I agree with some of your statements to a CERTAIN extent. I hold accountable all of us who pretend to be good or holy but refuse to fight for those that are hurting and that are going through terrible things, those of us who refuse to fight against the evils of this world and the evil that sometimes exist within ourselves, those of us who are jelly back and selfish. I am in no way agreeing with this post, however, with being real with myself, this young man made a few interesting points that I must agree with. Even so, thanks for reminding me that I am not the only person on earth, the only person that needs happiness, the only person that has a purpose. Thanks for reminding me that if I truly want to show how good of a person that I am and really prove how good and true my GOD is then I must be willing to stand for everything that is right, pure and true and must be willing to defend what I believe in not only with mere words but ACTIONS. Thanks for the post. It truly was a wake up call. Again I reiterate, very interesting!
angeloflight91@hotmail.com
Pink404: I read one of your responses to another post and I have taken your email address from it, something interested me very much. I have emailed you if that’s okay.
Angeloflight: In some ways I regret using the term that we are all evil, I tossed and turned last night with the trouble of knowing that I have very well upset some good hearted people. Although, ultimately, there is truth in what I say, I know this for sure, my intention is not to harm or upset anyone. Whist I feel that my original post explains things thoroughly, I am also aware that to open peoples minds is difficult when they are programmed to see only the words that they themselves have an understanding of – anything else is invisible to them. Or, they see the words but they have a completely different understanding of them than the next person. It’s difficult. And, I am not intending to open anyone’s mind anyway, or ‘save’ anyone, or upset anyone. I just wanted my opinion to be forever floating online – I have my reasons for that. I would just like to say to you that I think your response to my post is the best, only you and I know why I say that. I would really like to thank you for adding it.
Whilst saying that everyone in this world is evil, is harsh, I accept that. And I’m sure many people (most people) would never dream of doing evil or participating in it. And a lot of people think that they can’t help being born into this world so what are they to do, kill themselves? ? Go fight the bad guys all the time? ?
I believe that the ‘bad guys’ are not as many as one would think, I think that is one of the illusions we are under the spell of. What controls us instills fear inside of us all so that we fear each other, hence we become closed off. I personally do not know of any murderers or pedophiles, do you? Anyone I know has never personally known one either. How do we know for sure? We KNOW, we just do. Why do most of us recoil at the horrors that happen? Why is it that even our imaginations cannot hold those images, let alone carry them out with our own hands? Because MAN is NOT this way, not naturally. And most of man is not this way. Evil is small, it has to be, it’s against mans own nature so how can it strive in our world? Through fear, that’s how. I am not saying that pedophiles and murderers are not out there, they are. They are real. But they are a small number compared to the rest of us. Who put them there? Where did these people come from, these ones that live against our own very nature? We have been taught to fear them, fear each other, by those very people themselves. The vast majority of us, the only contact we have with these people is through the media. Don’t get me wrong, of course many of us have experienced it first hand, we have been victims of it – a lot of you may know a victim or are a victim, but how many us here is a perpetrator, how many know personally a perpetrator? It’s a very small number of us. We are victims, but we are not perpetrators. Our so called support system (law/government/police) use up much more resources on punishing those that don’t pay their taxes than those who commit vile crimes – this is the truth, I have researched this from inside for years! There is something behind all of this, something which is kept hidden from you, it is the reason we are all so immaculately controlled because if it gets out there will be mayhem! You then are left to think that this thing must be huge, too huge to confront. That is not the case, not really, not compared to the rest of us. it’s all mind control. Like many others, have you ever thought about the stuff that was written after the holocaust? About how outnumbered the perpetrators actually were by the victims in all the concentration camps? Those victims could actually have rose up and took over those camps, sure some lives would have been lost in the process on both sides, but is that not what life is given to you for? To save suffering, to stop evil? Is it any life at all to watch torture and suffering and inhumane death? Every human has been given all the right tools to do the right thing, to find their own purpose, that of which is love, pure love for their fellow man, there IS no other love. You will never be fulfilled from saying nice things to people, from stroking some victim, from writing nice poetry, sure it will feed your own ego for a short while but that ego is one greedy b@stard and it will want more. It wont last because it is not real. We are all capable of so much more, you have strength beyond your imagination, you have insight beyond your imagination, you have the capability to love and be loved beyond your imagination but most importantly, you have the ability to SAVE LIVES literally, you, with your own hands – not God! he gave that ability to you all!! Of course he also gave you the free will to take lives to if you so wish – he gave you a CHOICE which one are you going to take? Or, like most of us that exist on this planet, will we just ignore both choices? Will we simply just exist and wander through life deliriously, searching for something, anything, to make us feel whole and worthy – when it’s staring you in the face all along but you don’t want to see it.
So, although I have no intention to upset people, people with good intentions, by saying they are evil. I am saying that this life was given to us all to make choices and to fulfill our purpose. By not making the right choice, you are succumbing to the evil that has taken over, and therefore you are a conscious part of it, you KNOW it, but it upsets you to know it because you think of yourself as good. Well are you going to actually prove it in this life or the next, or the next, how bad will you let this go? Until the evil actually has it’s hands on you? Well then it’s too late isn’t it.
Why are all these good people wanting to die? They KNOW this place stinks, they know there is something very wrong, they want out! I don’t blame them. There is nothing ‘wrong’ with someone who feels this way, your brain is sending you warning signals that you are in danger – it’s a pure, centre of your brain signal that even man – made medications cannot stop – maybe it’s a signal from God. I’m not saying he is telling you to kill yourself, maybe he’s telling you to fight, or maybe he is simply telling you that evil is here and the choice is yours what you do. Of course society and organised religions will tell you that that message is from the devil, of course they would say that! But you’re all intelligent people, just look around you, whose controlling this world, God or the devil? Only YOU really know the answer to that.
Ignoring your feelings is ignoring your true purpose. But sure, you can try once again to subdue it with a nice cup of tea and some poetry or the story of someone who is suicidal, tears will come to your eyes and you will feel sadness for the person and you will want to save them if only you could. Just by having those feelings, those reactions, makes you a good person right? Right?
Splinter I feel like a daft woman writing here after all the really smart other responses and you sound so smart yourself. But I just want to say that this post is doing something to me and I can’t explain it. Your words are literally monopolising my brain since yesterday! I have been reading into religions and philosophies for ages and I get some hope or some sort of good feeling from them, your words have completely taken over and seemed to have filled some gap in me. You know like when you finally get that crossword puzzle answer that you’ve looked for for days??
I have a question, I really hope it doesn’t offend you coz you don’t seem to come across as religious in any way but you talk of God and of pure love and so I just wanted to ask you something (pls dont think im a bimbo);
Do you believe in the messiah thing? That a messiah will come to earth?

What he means by saying that we are all evil (feeding the beast) is that we all use this corrupt system and the ONLY reason we do that is for ourselves. We pay taxes into a system that is corrupt and is keeping us from the truth (well most of us) (seems a few on here do in fact know the truth). Your purpose is to fight for your purpose if that makes sense – at ALL costs. By funding a system that is more focused on filling up prisons with poor people or petty criminals (who are more often than not drug addicts or poor uneducated people) (the real big criminals live in mansions in luxury), you have made the choice that your own comfort is more important than the comfort of others. That would change if you yourself come face to face with the horror that controls us, if someone raped and killed your child or tortured you – your view on life would change then wouldn’t it? But because that hasn’t happened, even though you KNOW it’s happening to someone else right now, you STILL don’t stop funding the beast.
Like he says, nice words, giving to charity, helping the poor, is all very nice, but it’s also all very EASY.
I couldn’t agree more with this post, it’s soul destroying to see how ignorant most people are. I agree that everyone has sold their soul to the beast, to the material world.
Splinter, I LOVE what you have wrote, only those who have an inkling of the truth will understand, those who have no inkling will no doubt get offended.
Now just to lower the tone a bit 🙂 Are you a man? cause my God!! I want to marry you!!!!
Hey guys, a friend of mine saw this post last night and told me about it today, because this is how I have been talking for ages. I couldn’t believe it when I read it, it was like reading something I wrote myself!
I have never been on this suicide site before, I never knew it existed until now. I’m glad I have found it and even more I am glad that I have found this post, it restores my faith in mankind, I really was beginning to think that I was alone in my thoughts.
Seems a shame Splinter that you are not interested in some kind of discussion forum or even becoming friends with like minded people. When are you leaving? is it very soon? I wonder could you humor me just a little, if only for a few days, in giving me someone to talk to, I’m pretty much going out of my noodle over here and don’t know what to do.
I don’t know how old you are or even what sex you are (I assume you’re male, don’t know why) you might think that I could be just a kid looking for a friend, I’m 33 just so you know, and all I can say is that I have plenty of friends, but no-one that talks my language as clearly as you do – I see that as a sign.

Dear Splinter, I may still not know you in real life (and perhaps, “destiny” would never allow both of us to ever meet in this earthly life), but know this, know this: I am truly honored that today, on 11th August 2010, in one very small segment in my life, I have ‘known’ you via online, and have an honor/privilege to read your eye-opening posts & thoughts.
I still stand firmly with what I said in my thread here: http://suicideproject.org/2010/08/isnt-posting-discussing-in-this-website-is-a-change-already/
in that you have truly, definitely created a CHANGE, and you’ve *chosen* to create such a POSITIVE change, to inspire many other people here (as can be seen from the amount of comments & responses).
I really do wish and hope, and pray, that you would still want to live for another day, another year, another 10 years perhaps, to create even BIGGER Changes, not only in this blog (you’ve finished this ‘mission’ here, time to move to the next ‘level’, to fight this ‘evil’), but perhaps through some BIGGER EFFORTS like creating a blog, or build a community, finding other like-minded individuals (you can even ask us here! most people here would gladly lend you a hand & help you! I really believe that!), or create a book, etc.
But, but if by any other still-unknown reasons or factors, you have decided to quickly finish this earthly Life (though I, for one, would truly feel sorrow & sad for losing such a great, inspiring, and REAL figure!…again, even though we’ve never ever met in real life!) , then know this, know this..I vow & swear, that all your posts here would forever got traced deep in my mind, you have leave a MARK in my Life, and I can and will promise to you, that even after you’ve gone, I will try my BEST to pass on your wisdom and ‘teachings’ here!…either in a form of my music compositions, or a book, and not to forget, also to WALK the TALK (ie: show it in my ACTIONS, not only mere words), so others hopefully would see the Change, that it is very POSSIBLE, and thus inspire many others (like snowball effect) to know: there’s NOTHING to be feared of, as like you said wisely, we are all here already gifted with the POWER, power to choose & create many, many GOOD things, beyond our current limited imaginations!
once again, I am truly honored that I’ve ‘known’ you ‘accidentally’ (or perhaps by some ‘mysterious’ unknown providence??),
I will surely never ever forget this such important moment in my life!
what an interesting post, I just got to join in! I normally only read stuff on here, I have never posted before.
I particularly like your recent remarks Splinter about the ‘beast’ not being as big as you would be led to believe, I agree with that. it is fear that’s instilled upon us and have you noticed that all the hollywood films, although they are hidden in a pretense of fiction, often scare us into thinking that those that control us can read our minds, watch our every move, time travel and all that nonsense – well, it might be true, but I don’t believe ANYTHING of this world, it’s far too corrupt to take it’s word of anything. They would love for us all to be so scared of even thinking against them, so that we all behave. I don’t believe they are that powerful, or that big. Sure, they are excellent at brainwashing us and keeping the majority inline but not all of us. It’s cruel that they force us to believe that we are ‘mentally ill’ rather than sensing that something is very wrong here.
Splinter, I would be very interested to know a little more about you if you would ever like to talk?
PLEASE DON’T LEAVE JUST YET – PLEASE!
I am sitting here at my laptop shaking and crying after reading this post. I am so suicidal, so lost and so desperate. I try to gain some comfort from people who offer comforting words on here but it hasn’t helped, I am still lost and hopeless because no-one can reach inside me. Well you just have, for the first time in my whole life! Please don’t leave, I couldn’t bare in if I last found some truth in a living human being and then he vanishes, I have literally prayed constantly and for years for someone like you – I lost hope. Please don’t leave. Your post makes me want to live, it’s the ONLY thing that has made me want to live, but I need your help, I am not as smart as you and some of the others who have responded here, I need guidance, I know that’s weak and pathetic of me but I can’t help it. Please help me.

Turn off the light, the show begins; we hide ourselves in innocence

Enough is enough


The truth is hard to comprehend; accept the loss of common sense

Enough is enough


We’re always falling to the ground, destroying everything we own

Enough is enough


How many tears still must be shed until the last one understand

Enough is enough


First when the rain keeps falling and our world stops turning

Another candle-light still burning, even if the tide won’t turning


A false conclusion leads into disputes;
it’s time to replace the existing rules

Enough is enough 


How many bombs must be dropped till we see, the worst crime of it all is our apathy

Enough is enough


First when the rain keeps falling and our world stops turning

Another candle-light still burning, even if the tide won’t turning
Hi, my name is Hans. I have observed these forums for some weeks, and came across it from googling my feelings (dark feelings) I have been contemplating suicide seriously for 2 months, and generally for as long as I can remember. Observing these forums has shown me just how many tortured souls there are, that I am not the only one. Some explain some feelings that I can share with the writer and some I do not share, or even understand. That is the nature of our own souls I guess, it is a very individual experience. However Splinter, you have spoken directly to my soul for the only time in my life. You have spoken my own words out loud, those which I have felt and known but never said out loud. It seems that as well as speaking directly to me, you have also spoken directly to quite a number of others on here. Do you realise what you have done here? Something which no-one else can really manage to do, i think the only way you could have done this must be that you are not just talking from your own soul, you are not just talking of your own experience, your own interpretation; instead, you have some gift, some insight into others. I agree with Niki in her post above to you that it would be avery good thing to set up a blog or a forum to gather people together, it is clear there are others on here who really would like to talk with you, imagine how many more people could be reached. I feel like I know you from reading this post of yours and your responses, you really are reaching into my soul. I would give anything for you not to go away just yet.
Here it is! The truth! The cold, hard truth. At last someone speaking some god damn truth.
I would be ecstatic to join a group such as this.
Wow, how weird, I just posted my suicide note online because I have no-one to leave it for in my actual life, no-one that would understand any of it anyway, they would just read it and say I was depressed or mental and feel sorry for me with no real understanding. After I posted it I was staring at my computer in a sort of daze and then I decided to read other suicide notes to see if I could connect with anyone. They make me feel sad and I feel an understanding of some of them, but then I came across this one, not the usual suicide note, granted, but bloody hell does this stand out!
Splinter, I would give my right arm, literally, to meet someone like you. Isn’t this just such a cruel world that I find you, in your last moments and me in mine, through the f@cking internet?? I know that us ever meeting may not/probably wouldn’t have stopped us from dying, but for me, it sure would have helped me breathe better these last few months. I’e barely been able to get out of bed, if I do manage it, i exhaust myself and have to crawl back in like a snail.
God, what am I talking about? I don’t know. Splinter, you just sound like someone I want (NEED) to know desperately. How sad. Anyway, you’ve probably gone now to a better place, my last wish is that I find you there. Goodbye and god bless xxx
hey, im hoping that you will read this splinter, as your case has stirred many thoughts in my mind…
firstly i’d like to say that i cannot even begin to understand the pain and heartache that you feel for the tradgic passing of your wife and child… and secondly im not going to give you the usual sympathy that im sure you have come to loath over time… instead i admire you for your efforts thus far…
i dont consider myself a wise person, i believe wisdom comes with age and experience and i am only 19, with very little life experience in comparison to someone such as yourself.. but much like yourself (as i have read in your case) when i want something done i give it my all… and if life has taught me anything in my mere years on this planet, it’s that that trait in human personality is precious, yet extremely powerful when put to good use. much like yourself i am disgusted at times to be branded as part of this race we call “human” as many of the acts we see and hear of on a daily basis are selfish, cruel, barbaric and anything but “human”. i wouldnt say so far in my life i have gone that extra bit to greatly improve the life of another person, nor have i done anything worth merit other than the little things in day to day life that might just raise a smile on the little old ladys face, by giving up my seat on the bus etc…but you’ve planted the desire in me to do what is in my power to help others on a greater scale…i know im not great with words, and this is all probably dull, but my point is this… im not the sort of person that, so far, has been going out of my way to make the world we live in free of evils… but since reading your case, i just cant shake the need to help do something about it, and as i mentioned earlier when i embrace something i give it my all.. if you can plant the need to help turn things around, in the mind of one 19 year old, clubbing,self centered, sports playing, average lad, then you have a rare gift my friend, and not one i (just like so many other people who just need that kick up the arse in the right direction) would like to see lost. i understand the years you’ve spent trying to get through to people about what needs to be done, how the vast majority are just living our lives for ourselves without care for others, but if knowing that you’ve sparked the desire to help other’s in just one person gives you the slightest, even the tiniest bit of hope or satisfaction, then im happy it was me! 🙂 i also know that this is not the case, as you can tell by the number of responses you have had from this 1 post, that others like me want to help to… it would be another tragedy to lose someone with the power to incite the desire to help other people, and a great loss to the small part of mankind that i am priviledged to live amongst. all throughout history there are tales and accounts of people overcoming the odds, minorities proving wrong the majorities and i know this can be the case for us all, as you may feel on your own you havent managed to accomplish a great deal of justice, but in numbers we can! i hope you have read this, i hope you can feel the sincerity of what i have said, and i want you to know (wherever your path takes you next) that you have done a good thing here. i hope i grow to be half the human being you are today, and i wish you all the best 🙂 i would be over the moon if you would take the time to message me by email.. palzor19@hotmail.com not just so i can try help you, but so you can help me. hope to hear from you soon 🙂
Is splinter still with us? I need more of his words….. Lisa x
Splinter,
I believe that TRUE INNER HAPPINESS is achieved by helping others, all other routes lead to emptiness and despair. I admire your frankness on this subject. I dont want to sound fanboy-ish, i am truly impressed with what you have written.
Let me point out something else, to the people that have read this eye-opening post by splinter (myself included), how many of us will go out and do good? work to fight this evil that splinter has so splendidly described? Who among us will do it?
And sadly, What you’ve done is describe me. One that is perfectly content to lay in my damn cozy bed till friggen dooms day rolls around. Perhaps this makes me worse than most for understanding the problem and not doing anything about it.
@jt: I might and AM not a perfect person.
I may even not be as intelligent, smart, and wise as Splinter,
but I am so moved beyond words by his posts,
that I will answer to your question:
Yes!
I will DO (not only talk) good, and keep doing good, as long as I’m breathing, and still living in this physical existence on a planet called Earth.
I will honor this man’s ‘teachings’,
and so what he said would not go in vain or futile.
I truly believe in what the man (Splinter) said:
that we are all much more *CONNECTED* than we might ever thought of before.
if only we, ALL of us, dare to rise together, and fight this ‘evil’ in each and combined of our ways, regardless of all the ‘lies’ we’ve been sold and brainwashed such as ‘money, status, race’ etc,………then I believe, I truly believe with my deepest heart, somehow, that mankind & humanity will start able to see what’s POSSIBLE, what’s truly BEAUTIFUL ETERNALLY,
and planet Earth will become such a pleasant place to stay again
and less people will commit suicide.
I agree with you splinter that there is a war between good and evil in the world…but you have a chance to fight for the good and make your life lived a point for the side of good!
I can see that Splinter has been through much. I disagree very strongly with his notion that we all have the responsibility to actively fight against wrong-doings. We are not obligated to, and I don’t base my existence on doing that. I base my existence on being happy while not inconveniencing others. Do I think that there’s a lot of evil in this world? Yeah. I don’t get wrapped up in it if I don’t have to, though. It’s not because I’m a coward, it’s because it just doesn’t directly concern me until it personally affects me. I’m sure you understand. We can’t all be running around for the benefit of everyone else.
Splinter believes that men are predispositioned to be evil. I disagree. Some men are evil, and some men are good. There is nothing universal about it except that all men live. He believes that “if you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem” which is just something said out of frustration and I completely dispute it. I must say, I’m a bit surprised to see that you folks haven’t recognized this.
I think you may have slightly took this post in a wrong way, I don’t see that Splinter is saying that anyone needs to go and do what he has done, in fact he says quite clearly that people can actually ‘do nothing’ as in supporting the ‘system’ that is making this world so corrupt. It is the law that renders us incapable of defending our own children (whether they are our flesh and blood or not). What he means and what I think everyone agrees with, is that as long as we fund the system (through taxes etc) we are feeding this beast, the one that is destroying our world. He is not saying that we are evil cause we don’t go actively fighting other men, he’s saying that by trying to find some peace ‘under this system’ is being a part of the problem. I agree.
But then there is another post by someone called Jentttra and I also agree with her that she doesn’t want to have to fight anything or anyone, she just wants peace and believes that she is entitled to that. So I see and agree with both sides to this, which actually is all about the system – man made life, not natural life.
Tom: I don’t think that what is being said here is that all men are evil if we don’t go and beat the pedos. From what I understand here is that through paying taxes and towing the line under laws, we are supporting and actually funding a VERY corrupt organization. Ignoring that fact is being a part of the problem, there is no escaping that.
Yeah, when i first read this post I felt the a bit offended like you Tom and kinda wanted to say something along the same lines as what you’ve said here. But I didn’t, I let it settle into my mind for a bit and I’ve given it a lot of thought. I thought ‘fuck off, I’m not evil just coz I don’t go chasing the bad guys!’ – but as much as it pains me to say, really, I am aren’t I? If I KNOW that stuff like this goes on all the time and the media is distorted or blatantly lies, and the laws don’t really protect out kids (and a million other things) and I pay the fucking crooks most of my wage to carry on doing this, then I’m turning a blind eye aren’t I? This guy Splinter isn’t saying that we should join him in his crusade is he? He’s just saying that by accepting our current corrupt situation, we are feeding the problem. It’s the same as a bystander walking by a rape coz he doesn’t want any ‘problems’ – Thats exactly how the system wants us to be! If that’s how we’ve become then it’s a sad and very ugly situation indeed, no wonder no-ones fucking happy!
I am guilty of this. i do nothing and I fund the system. Somehow though, not for much longer, I want out of this shithole completely.
Allright, I understand what you guys are saying. I still disagree, though. I don’t believe that by paying taxes that I’m directly supporting “the beast” in its endeavors to be evil. I’m paying taxes because I don’t want to have my things taken away and I don’t want to go to jail. That’s all. Because if I don’t pay, force would be used, and I don’t want to deal with that. I don’t think that “the system” in itself is necessarily evil, either. Do I agree that this is best we can run things? No. It’s a completely subjective society. It’s a game. And I’ve realized that if I want to find some sort of happiness, as much as I might disagree with it or think it’s stupid, I need to play the game. I’m not walking by a rape and deciding not to intervene. You can’t equate that scenerio to paying taxes. It’s not at all the same. You shouldn’t feel a bit responsible for “funding the system.”
And tell me who and what is exactly corrupt. I’m a fan of capitalism, by the way.
People are idiots. This man is saying that that we’re either evil or stupid. I agree. Anyone that disagrees with that is a fucking deluded moron that is appalled and insulted by that truth.
Eatme: I think it’s rude to say that all people are idiots just because they disagree with your (or someone else’s) point of view. People are not ‘evil’ because they pay taxes that’s a ludicrous thing to say, nor are they evil because they don’t go after villains. I don’t want to pay taxes myself but that’s got nothing to do with the system being ‘evil’, I just feel it compromises my freedom (and many other things that I can’t be arsed to say) but all my friends and family are happy living ‘normally’ and I certainly don’t hate them for it or think they are ‘deluded morons’. Paying tax is something that cannot be avoided so how on earth you expect people to not, and avoid prison is a mystery, maybe you know something we don’t?
jentttar haven’t you just contradicted yourself then if you yourself don’t want to pay taxes because it ‘compromises your freedom’ then how can you respect your friends and family that compromise their freedoms happily?? Are they not dumb? If you really give it some thought jentttar I’m sure you’re smart enough to understand that being a part of the problem is evil, I saw myself in something you wrote that you want to be a part of the solution not the problem. So the ones who are a part of the problem you MUST think of as evil and stupid?
When I talk about being a part of the solution I am referring to ‘my’ problem, not a global problem. I respect this post of Splinters as I do anyone’s post, but I am not in full agreement of everything said, it is ‘his’ truth, not mine. I wish I cared enough about everyone to WANT to ‘save’ people but I don’t I’m sorry, I just want to be left alone in peace, I don’t give a shit what’s happening everywhere else, and I know that everyone will jump on me for that because I see it happening all over this site. I personally think it’s futile to try to save the world, I just want to save myself!
I am happy that my friends have no problem with paying their taxes and being a part of mainstream society, I actually respect people that do. Sorry!
Jentttar: I think what eatme is trying to say is that you are just not thinking deeply enough into what splinter is saying here that’s all. You said yourself that you only care about saving yourself and so you are not in the right mind to see this post for the truth that it is.
Tom: capitalism is EVIL and the root cause of this planets problems so no wonder you have no idea what’s being discussed here.
Jenttar: for instance, how do you feel about being with your friends knowing that they are happy to ‘fund the beast’ and it is against your ‘morals’ as you said in your other post? You said you cannot spend time with your friends so surely eatme is right, you cannot respect them fro that reason?
Jesus christ! I cannot spend time with my friends because I don’t relate to what they do and say most of the time, it has nothing whatsoever to do with the fact that they pay taxes LOL! I think I’ve just not been lucky enough to meet someone I really like and relate to, I’ve grown out of VIP bars and the latest makeup and my friends haven’t that’s all!
Oh and I can think deeply, I just can’t be arsed to at the moment, that doesn’t make me evil. Oh and everyone’s pretty much a capitalist so that only shows your stupidity.
I agree with this post I have to say but I do also see Jenttars point of view and she’s entitled to that so don’t attack her for it for fucks sake.
Err excuse me, I didn’t attack her! She attacked me! I’m entitled to my fucking opinion as well. I’m sorry but she sounds like a selfish *****, she doesn’t give a fuck about what’s going on in the world on a grand scale and neither does Tom, and the world is in the mess it’s in coz of shitty minded people like this!
Capitalism stinks of shit! Evil.
Look, everyone here, including myself, is or has been suicidal at one point or another, so I’m going to mind myself with this response. Apparently, only Jenttar and I “get it.” And I have respect for talktome because although he may not be in full agreement, he at least attempts to see what we’re saying and is respectful.
Look, you guys have taken this way out of proportion. Splinter had some interesting things to say in this post, yes, but it wasn’t much more than a rant about how screwed up and corrupt the system is. We’re all just happy to see that someone notices it and speaks about it with such passion. “Sticking it to the MAN,” so to speak.
All of us here live within the system. If we decided to not live within the system, our alternatives would be to live alone somewhere like on top of a mountain, to be outlaws, or to live in poverty. I think that’s about it… Or you could move to another country, but it’s all pretty much the same as far as I’m concerned. Now we all “hate” the system and we recognize it’s nonsense. It is demonstrable in so many ways. We know that we have to pay taxes to own a home and have internet and buy groceries, etc. We know that those taxes go to the system (primarily for police, construction, etc.) for various reasons; some of which we absolutely disagree with. That’s just the price we have to pay to have some of the things we like. There’s nothing else about it. I think that taxes are too high, regardless of what they’re going toward.
How dare you consider others or yourselves evil for paying taxes? It’s just so stupid, I’ve never heard anything so farfetched or off the wall in my life. If you don’t like the way the system handles your money, why don’t you go out and attempt to do something about it? But as for myself, I just live my life in relative peace other than the demons going on upstairs and I don’t do harm to anyone. And Jenttar, yeah, I’ll bet they’re gonna wanna poach you on this site for saying that “you’re looking for what’s good for you.” I’m in complete agreement here with Jenttar folks. I’m here for me. You’re not gonna lay some guilt trip on me or anyone else because you feel that we’re not living according to your agenda. It doesn’t make me evil to just mind my business.
I figure that most people on this site are liberal. Wouldn’t surprise me. It shouldn’t be relevent where you stand politically, but for the sake of argument, I’ll tell you that I’m mostly independent, but I lean towards conservativism. I have nothing to do but laugh at all the rubbish some bloaks say about capitalism being evil. Let’s see….I go to school to get a degree in a profession. I go out looking for a job to practice that profession to make more money than something else. What’s evil about it? I’m a fan of paying for my own expenses and taking care of myself. I don’t go to school or work everyday to take care of someone else. You know why? It’s not because I’m selfish, it’s because it’s not my problem. And I’ll tell you this much: If you feel that others need a hand out, you can go right ahead and give them all the money that you’d like to give them-from your own pocket. Don’t obligate me to pay for someone else’s misfortunes. That’s what families and churches and community charities are for-not the government. Anyway, kudos again, Jenttar 😉
I’m not even going to waste my time reading a comment that is all about capitalism, which is selfishness, greed and evil as you can get. It’s people like you Tom that make the majority of society unbearable for others, for others don’t stand a chance in this capitalist world.
Jenttar: I just read your post and you have stated that you don’t want to pay tax and that you are suicidal because you can’t live outside of it. So why don’t you actually do something about it then? Instead of just giving up like a pathetic loser. And I’m sorry but ANYONE that says they only care about their own happiness is tosser
I’m sorry jenttar dear but I am NOT a capitalist I assure you!
I do not want to kill myself because I wont pay tax! I am fed up of having to work and contribute to a society that I am not getting anything out of. And in answer to your question ‘eatme’, I also stated clearly in my post that I know there isn’t a way to live outside of the system (I’m not so stupid or delusional to think so) and I have no interest in going on some rampage to fight against something that actually works for most people. . It’s not that I think the system is ‘evil’ I just think it is wrong to HAVE to work to survive.
For instance, I have been talking to someone who is seriously suicidal because she has lost her job and is worried she can’t pay the rent and bills and isn’t entitled to any benefits. What is she gonna do? She either ends up on the streets a bum or she’s gonna kill herself. And it pisses me off because she’s a really respectful, intelligent and strong person who has ‘towed the line’ all her life and now will be treated like shit and left to die by that very system. I think it is really unfair and I hate contributing to it (especially when I’m not even happy myself!). There are other reasons too but I wont go into it.
I understand what you are all saying about this guy splinters post and I agree somewhat, i just think it is far fetched and hurtful to slag anyone off who thinks differently.
I’m not going to post again about this ‘evil’ shit so you can slag me off all you like.
Yeah I mean I’m a capitalist, but I understood and feel for your friend, Jenttar. I’m barely able to work, myself, because of depression and what not. No, it’s not fair that she be thrown on the street because she’s been dealt a bad hand lately. So yeah, it’s a shame that we have to constantly play the game to even get by and survive. If I was really rich, I think it would help me handle this place a lot more easily. It’s like this: You’re born and you’re told that there’s been an established system and we expect you to abide by it. If you don’t, you’re either lazy or it’s just SOL for you. It’s just too bad….
Eatme-I don’t think you’re the right kind of person for this site.
@Tom: may I know why you *like* the capitalism system?
Perhaps some explanation from your perspective perhaps may clear some ‘misunderstandings’ I see here..
Capitalism is the root of all evil, no two ways about it. The non greedy and relentless people suffer, so Tom, I think it is YOU that shouldn’t be on this site.
bump
btw taxes are indeed against the 1st to the 4th? amendment, look up Zeitgeist And even though we feel screwed by democracy while the rich get richer. I would rather live here, than in a 3rd world country, while little children are on top of sewage, collecting used needle, to make pennies for their families to survive, we do have disability, welfare, etc. so if you dont feel the need to pay taxes, which you don’t have to, and a whole state got together and refused to pay, or sorry a city in England, but it takes a community, not one, if we all went on strike, etc. They cant do fuck all! But i am kind of person, who doesnt believe that materialism is necessary, but i do like to eat good, and money to spend to make me happy on various things! Its a choice.
I watched this interview with Richard Ramirez. I like his quote because it’s true, but what do you people think about “society makes killers”? Every time there were serial killers, they all had high IQ.. Do you think that at some moment these people just lose their minds, and start killing? I feel the same as OP about this world, but I don’t think fighting evil with more evil is solution..
….it’s already been seven years since this very thought-provoking OP (original post), & as well as many insightful, interesting discussions in the comments section….
now, seven years later….I still even remember clearly, vividly, and sometimes return back to this post…to see all the interesting, thoughtful posts, comments, & discussions…about Life, Meaning of Life, Humanity, Existence, Pain, Sufferings, and Suicide & Death…
for all of you here in this website (especially the younger generations today), I just want to say one thing : that this post/thread (& also the author of the OP) is probably one of the most important, deep, smart, & thoughtful/thought-provoking post/thread ever in this website…
so please, do take some time to read this whole post/thread, discussions, & comments,..and perhaps even contribute in the comments too
…how I really deeply & sincerely wish that this kind of wisdom writings & discussions can be more known in the outside world & our today’s sad, depressing Human’s Society….
