    Does anybody have that picture of the guy drinking cheap wine with a bread crust in his collar, with Objectivist literature propped up in the background? I want to use it as a character portrait for a Mage game.

    I played with some guys who became Objectivists mid-campaign.

    They only stayed in it to sabotage it to the point that the group disintegrated and the campaign was abandoned midway through, later claiming that they only "withdrew the value they had created in the game themselves" before going to one of their mom's basement to start their own game without the other players.

    They had to make all their own rules, but they said it was a much better game because it was all theirs.

    Yeah, "objectivist" is just another philosophy often bastardized by CHUD fuckheads because it provides an easy excuse for SUPAR SPECHUL SNOWFLAEK status. As usual, the vast gulf between the fantasy of the CHUD and the reality is a source of incredible irony; in this case, objectevist philosophy would advocate the brutal asskicking of the CHUD, since they are always and forever leeches who spoil games for other people and are, by nature, incapable of running them themselves.

    And thus otherwise unremarkable creeds get tarred with the cheeto stains of the CHUDs.

    Speaking of using things as justification, one guy I know uses Buddhism as his excuse for being a dick to other people because "it balances things out". That alone let me know that he doesn't actually know anything about Buddhism.

    I managed to read up to the end of the 4th book.

    Then fucked it off when it turned into Magic Hitler vs Magic Stalin with Bondage and Rape every tenth page and Objectivism ever third page.

    After the first book it seemed to turn into nothing more than a cross between a political rant box for retards and the authors own personal fap-fic.

    I felt dirty and used after coming to this conclusion.

    I am glad that i stopped reading when I did as after the 4th book it went Full Retard and in one scene i am told Richard Rhal rides down a mob of unarmed militant pacifists because they lacked moral purity.

    Religions like Christianity contain language that can be interpreted to make it okay to hate gays and such. Buddhism's guidelines pretty much rule out being a dick to other people since the way to enlightenment involves not saying things that aren't helpful and saying helpful, but potentially hurtful, things in a tactful manner and at an appropriate time. It also involves "Right Speech", a part of which is not being verbally abusive.

    Tell me again how this can be twisted to mean it's okay to be a dick.

    >The one that is used by a technician cannot go any further than killing, for he never appeals to the sword unless he intends to kill. The case is altogether different with the one who is compelled to lift the sword. For it is really not he but the sword itself that does the killing. He had no desire to do harm to anybody, but the enemy appears and makes himself a victim.
    This is what happens when you ignore entire sections of a religion for your own convenience.

    Are humans driven by desire and allow their desires to justify about anything? Yes, there are such humans. A-plenty even.

    Others try to mindful of their desires and to not be blindly driven by them.

    What does that have to do with the truth of Buddhism though?

    This falls under ignorance, which Buddhism explicitly intends for a practitioner to overcome. While their ignorance might not be willful, the result is still bad karma (since they're ignorantly doing things with good intention but the result is ultimately bad).

    These people are not even ignorant. There is no way that a grown man could believe that fish drown in water and not on land, especially not one who works with them for a living.

    They are performing mental gymnastics to allow themselves to harm an animal while pretending that they haven't broken their moral philosophy which forbids harming animals.

    It has absolutely nothing to do with "the truth of Buddhism, though" it's simply a blatant refutation of the idea that Buddhism is immune to being twisted to justify violence and cruelty.

    When it's twisted as such, it's no longer Buddhism. It is something parading itself around under the guise of Buddhism. This is the point I'm making. Claiming to follow Zen Buddhism while not actually following ZEN BUDDHISM.

    Williamsons books are in essence several hundred pages of incoherent, barely sane objectivism wank.

    They aren't Nips or stupid Americans trying to be cool by following a non-Abrahamic religion.

    They're the society that fucking invented this religion, and they'd been following it for a thousand years when your grandfather with sucking his mothers tits for sustenance. They practice it as much as anyone else. (Keep in mind, basically everything used in modern society has an animal murdered to produce it at some point in production, so American vegan Buddhists are still faking it.)

    Quit No True Scotsmanning at me.

    "Americans aren't really Christians or they wouldn't have war."

    "Actually, neither are South Americans, or Europeans for the same reason."

    "China isn't Buddhist, look at all the shit they do he'd disapprove of!"

    "Israel isn't really Jewish, God clearly said to stone the gays and they do not."

    "Mohammed was taught by a Christian monk and had respect for People of the Book, modern Middle Easterners are clearly not Muslims."

    Holy shit, everyone on the planet is non-religious.

    There is literally no possible way to live in a first world country and not use a product that at some point uses pig product. Muslims and Jews are impossible.

    The anti-pig thing was really just to avoid parasites. In the modern world muslims and jews should recognize that and not care. In my experience, most jews will eat pork, and only the orthodox or people with sudden urges to reconnect with their heritage will abstain. Idunno about muslims.

    You can still drink soda pop though, that's high fructose corn syrup.

    High fructose corn syrup is made by chemically breaking corn starch down into dextrose, and then using enzymes to convert the dextrose to fructose (then they mix fructose syrup with dextrose syrup, usually to achieve a 55-45 split).

    The enzymes to make the fructose are extracted from pig offal.
