Given our very short lifespan, Is there any rational reason to care about boring stuff like politics, and to ever think of having a traditional marriage/social life instead of just getting the most pleasure you can? I don't think so.

Says the guy who got quints

those fucking quints give me pleasure
checked

there is a difference between short- and longterm happiness

Nice digits

But if we have a chance to return to that lifestyle. Yes there is a reason. Havung children is your only purpose, the only mark you can leave on history. And you want them to be as great or greater men than their father or as kind of a woman as their mother

But if the west is just going to ho the way of Rome. Fuck it. Enjoy the sea of endless pussy and the joy of a degenerate life.

>Given our very short lifespan
Because the only path to immortality is to leave a mark on the people around us.

>implying all forms of pleasure aren't simply chemical reactions within the brain that have diminishing returns which causes you to go to more extremes until the point in which you feel absolutely nothing

You mean other than the fact that all of those things increase your lifespan by 200% or more? You hedonist faggots disgust me. I hope a serial killer murders you for pleasure.

If our forebears didn't think of those things we wouldn't exsist

If life is so meaningless then try to make the future great again.

quintsmonkey is right. However, I find politics and the like to be pleasurable.

I agree with this. There would be a point, but our culture is now so degenerate that even if you try to raise your children to be good people they will either be consumed by degeneracy anyway in order to fit in or will be ostracised from society as though they were lepers and never be able to find any happiness themselves. It just all needs to burn to the ground, it's my firm belief it soon will and there's no point having kids who'll have to suffer through that.

>pleasure
>In a world that is gradually becoming matriarchal, feminist hellhole overcrowded by angry thirdworlders.
I don't want any pleasure, I just want all those insane people to leave me alone and stoppoisoning my life.

>why would you rally around your principles for governance and try to elect someone who embodies them, I mean do you care about the way your government governs you or something

Nice quints tho

exactly

incessantly talking politics is what's fun to me

Let me guess. Youre like 20 something. Give it a few years and the answer to your query will reveal itself to you.

>I try to justify my degenerate lifestyle through nihilism

Life isn't really that short

It sure feels long once you hit 30

The point is to both make the experience great for yourself and for everyone after you. Which is exactly why politics matters and so many people care about it.

Yes. Because it's your duty as a human to try and make the world a better place. And you do that by caring about politics and impacting the lives of your family and people you care about. We're meant to have a lasting impression on the world.

How many women have you fucked user? I can garuntee not more than 0

Not OP but in my early 30s here. You start getting the biological urge to knock girls up for sure, but I think a lot of people just have kids to give themselves a reason to continue existing in this vapid culture we've created. You've got a family now, great, a reason to carry on living. And the cycle continues.

I don't really have anything against having kids or families, but I think you should definitely ask yourself why you're doing it before you do it. If the answer is really to raise a better generation to come after you who'll be an improvement to the world, go for it. But also keep that in your mind all the time. If the answer is "because it's what everyone does" or just "because it feels right" then having kids is really just as much of a shallow, base decision as blowing your money on hookers and cocaine.

Yeah, you're reborn through your children

>your duty as a human
No.
>We're meant to have
Also no.

I know the life expectancy is quite low in HUEHUEland, but for the civilized world existence is actually pretty long.

You mean people blow money on hookers and cocaine because 'everyone is doing that' and not because it's fun?

What's life to you then?

If you don't have children your existence literally doesn't matter. If you want to be useless like faggots and cripples, nothing's stopping you however.

>the only mark you can leave on history.

what is going on with all the people getting dubs itt being wrong?

I find it funny that you say that... while using a classical marble bust for your meme.

I'd wager that 90% of the people who knew that artist said;
>lol... wtf are you wasting your life playing with ricks?!?! You should have kids and marry and become a shopkeeper so you can leave your mark on history!

meanwhile, their kids, generation after generation were born and died in mediocrity... while his rock is still there, right here on Sup Forums to this day, conveying the feeling he wanted it to... to this very day.

THAT is true immortality!

So fucking what? They made a statue. You are dead, you won't know it.
Years later the statue could be smashed, and it wouldn't matter to you, because youd be dead

Survive and propagate. Biological imperatives are the only inherent meaning life has. Making the world a better place or whatever is a nice concept but it's not something we're "supposed" to do.

>it's another brazilian hedonist episode

I wish all of you would die so this country would be less shitty.

What you don't realize is that the only way of overcoming "our very short lifespan" is to actually do something noteworhty with the pitiful lifespan that's given us, maybe by partaking in 'boring politics' or 'boring academics' as a way to leave your name in history.

I ask myself,what can I learn from smoking behind the bike shed?

CHECKETH

Not true. Many great men left a mark on history without having children - Plato, Isaac Newton, Nikola Tesla, Ludwig van Beethoven, George Washington, etc.

Lots of average men had children who will never be remembered.

>when mudshits take over europe, they will erase all art and history, and all that will be left is burkas.

Hitler didn't have any offspring.

So African niggers in the Congo and Zimbabwe are the most "successful" humans on this planet.... yeah, you're a fucking idiot.

I never said you shouldn't have kids.

I disagreed with all you fuckwits that think it's the HIGHEST and best thing you can do in your life.

Creating an ideal or monument to convey what defines YOU is the ticket. Children may indeed be your progeny, but they are still human and have free will... they may or may not carry on your ideals.

I have two, I will do my best to raise them right and instill in them the best of values and morals and a love for beauty and art in it's best forms... that doesn't mean they will always or as enthusiastically champion such.

I'd bet 95% of the people saying kids are the #1 thing don't even have one. they're marvelous... but you are thinking small.

I'm very partial to this sort of thinking and your quints convinced me. Goodbye, leaving Sup Forums forever.

gengis khan has led the ultimate human life

not only did he left his mark on the page of history he also left a substantial mark on the gene pool

he's like adam

>I disagreed with all you fuckwits that think it's the HIGHEST and best thing you can do in your life.

I never made that claim. Kill your children then yourself. You've tainted the gene pool with your stupidity.

brazilpill

I'll concede that he was the ultimate nigger.

Had he taken over the globe... shit would've been a wreck.

Global barbarian wars for aeons.

The only species which would've benefited from that would've been horses.
