Hello there, My name is Jannik. I am an 19 year old male from Germany. My entire life I have rarely felt something like a true connection or intimacy to other people and to myself as well. Obviously just sitting in my room all day and medicating myself with video games instead of getting out to challenge my anxieties and abusive parents didn’t help me at all. After having wasted almost my entire teenage years starring at a computer screen, I felt that I was not able to numb my mind any longer. Now after nearly 6 months of intense work on self-knowledge and philosophy, I feel so much better than I thought was possible. The next important step I want to take is improving my abilities to find like minded people and to build meaningful relationships with them. Something I never really had with either my relatives or people I considered friends back then. I am dedicated to speak the truth so I can’t go back to my old “tribe” anymore and now I feel kind of stuck in a null zone where I want to get out as fast as possible – it really sucks in here. So, if you can relate to my story don’t hesitate to write me a message. I would love to hear your stories! … Thank you

They thought you a lot of lies in school. I'm very sorry. There are 3 lies I find very striking that would like to address: When the Americans gave those blankets to the native Americans, it was prior to the discovery of bacteria. It was also prior to the work of Pasteur and Koch (2 Europeans), who discovered bacteria life and associated it with diseases. So how could American colonists possibly understand bacterial warfare. Secondly. We did not conquer the natives when we arrived in America. The French and the English made colonies. They traded with the natives (a peace and voluntary exchange of goods that is beneficial to both parties). The Brits and the French had a military conflict. The natives tribes had conflicts amongst themselves. The French allied with some tribes and the Brits allied with some tribes and we tried to obtain the territory. It was basically a mirror of the war in Europe. We could also talk about how the natives practiced genocide and slavery LONG before the Europeans came. Once the conflict was over and the Brits won, the natives could do whatever the fuck they wanted. Vision this: the whites occupied a tiny part of america during that time. At any given time, the natives could have went in the wilds and we would have never found them. They could do that even in 2017. Most of Canada is unexplored woodlands. No, lets be honest. The natives stayed next to the whites for our goods, our alcohol and the food we provided them. At this point up to today, they became lazy leeches. And even since they learn how to use white guilt they have been robbing us blind. You need to understand that what happened in america is similar to what happened in India. Those countries were not conquered militarily. For the most part, it was the British companies (who were extremely efficient and offered a better standard of living then the administration of the country) slowly took a bigger and bigger role until it finally ran the country. This is still happening in some parts of the world. Some american companies own huge amounts of land in south america where they farm soy. And the natives are more then happy to work for them. This company ends up building cities, charging rent, providing shops and entertainment. Soon they own the country. It sure beats living in huts made out of shit and dying from the yellow fever. =P Thirdly, I love the definition of capitalism. It is to keep your stuff and honor your contracts. Capitalism isnt the big guy robbing the little guy. It is about a voluntary exchange of goods and services that is beneficial for both parties. Lets say my belly hurts. I go see the doctor. He provides me with his medical service. I'm in better health. He has more money. We are both satisfied with the trade. The doctor did not screw me, he did not steal my money at gun point, he did not use the power of the state to take my money. You need to understand that there are 3 big systems in history: - The monarchy - Capitalism - Marxism In the monarchy system you were judged according to your birth. No matter what you did in your life, you could obtain loans, people owed you respect, and you had dominion over generations and generations of men until the end of days, because you were born from a certain family. The capitalist system was born out of the libertarian enlightenment. No matter who you are, what sex, color, religion or whatever, it did not matter. It was your actions that mattered. This is the beginning of the system of contracts. You are only as good as your word. If you do not honor your contracts or dont pay what you owe, people will not trust you anymore. The Marxist system is a system based on identity. If you were born of a certain class you were considered a perpetual victim and you could do whatever you want without being blamed. And if you were born a certain class, then you were a perpetual oppressor and every wrong against you would be justified. You see this growing in the west all the time. People are entitled to privileges because they are women or black or trans or whatever. And whites are blamed for every problems in the world because they are white.
