Oh, eli, you never disappoint.
This guy has Protestant work ethic brain damage. He enjoys the aesthetic of self-flagellation, the pain and suffering.
He's sado-masochistic and loves pain, both his own pain and the pain of others.
People who talk like this are the worst people in the world because they always end up taking out their bloodlust on others. They advocate for low wages, for harsher punishments, for more terror at every opportunity. It is the most blatant expression of thanatos and the fact that people like this hold significant positions of power pretty much sums up why the majority of the world's population has their head held underwater by a tiny, brutal elite.
The elites are sadists. They morally justify their sadism with their own masochism--"I love to suffer, so you should too!"
Horrific.
- eli_gottlieb 14y agoOh, eli, you never disappoint. Ok, apparently I really do need to shut up. This guy has Protestant work ethic brain damage. The thing being that the Protestant work-ethic comes off as completely ridiculous to anyone who's not a Calvinist or a secular raised on Calvinist values. I mean, I pulled some truly long working hours just last week-and-a-half. Project had to get done, and I had realized I needed to rebuild it shortly before it was due in. So it got done, and more than just that got done too. Doesn't mean I liked it, for Heaven's sake, nor that I would recommend continual 12-hour workdays and all-nighters as the Right Way. It's entirely unsustainable over the long term, and, as I deserved, I crashed hard on the weekend.
