This popular trend of keeping our beliefs to ourselves, and the notion that openly debating our beliefs amongst each other is a somehow a violation of peace and progress, is utterly disgusting and degenerative. Allow me to explain why, and if you agree, please spread this video to as many people as you can!
Shit, I forgot to bring up something to discuss.
I'm an ethical nihilist in the sense that I don't believe any moral claim can be said to be objectively true or false; they can only be practical for achieving a certain goal.
Any objections?

you misunderstand. you assume just because some one can they will. do you honestly think humanity hates itself that bad?
im not saying amoral would help. im saying we need to tear down all morals just once and create morals as a whole. not as the individual. the whole point of my argument is that we think of ourselves as the individual and others instead of we as a race. im saying we need to be A complete organism. earth as a whole needs to be connected. cells don't make war, why do we.

humanity exists because of what little peace we've been able to maintain.
of there were no peace, we'd all kill each other - goodbye humanity.
and I do agree that our monetary structure revolves around "climbing the ladder". obviously this needs to change. a world where everyone lives optimally and equally is a great thought, and one we should be striving for.
i just don't understand how becoming amoral would help. murder and conflict would be rampant.

so... by cooperating we can over come primal instincts. now that i can agree with. two people or even a couple people can very easily over come instinct. but were not talking about a couple people. were talking about a society.
a society were if your not climbing the pile of beaten down people to take down the next king of the hill, your one of the pile.
you still think of yourself as the individual to individual, instead of the race to itself. humanity exists only BECAUSE there is no peace.
