Do you have a topic in mind, or you just want to go full random?
I’ll let you pick. I can talk about, almost, anything. If you chose nuclear physics, I won’t teach you how to make a nuclear bomb.....

You are what/who you are and you think what you will.... but, if you had a choice... What/Who would you be?
These, preset, tags might be a little "unclear"...... I'm not looking for help.... and I'm not desperate for a new friend............ I'm just here to talk to and help anyone that actually needs it.... I'll do random and boring chats, if needed.
@HitlerJr Sure, Do you have topic in mind?
@HitlerJr I guess that your nickname makes it a bit awkward..... I'll just get past that.... I'll go with something generic and stupid.... "What is life and why do we accept it as it is?"
@HitlerJr Wow.... I'm almost speechless...... Did not expect an intelligent response.....
Now.. About the control part.... I think that you always have control over it.... It's just hard to be aware about the fact that you actually do...
@HitlerJr Is that your take on life?.... Just the stuff that you can experience from you own body? Is there nothing else that you can, at lest "feel", from someone else's point of view?
@HitlerJr I feel that way.... every time I open my mouth....... I guess that this does not apply to what you're saying......
I always feel what the other person is feeling.... and that is not by choice...... or pleasant....
People get hurt from more that internet videos..... It's all about everyone's perception...........
My take on things?... Just stop being a bitch and start deciphering the stuff around you. If you're good enough..... You might just understand new things....
I know... I'm being to hard... but... Isn't perception an exchange of different opinions?! (By "definition".... they need to be disputed.... I don't like it either......)
@HitlerJr Hahaha.... I can always go deeper..... but.... I'm always intrigued by unknown subjects :dog: (this chat made me pick this emoji...)
You are what/who you are and you think what you will.... but, if you had a choice... What/Who would you be?

@D1Vne said in What is manipulation and is it harmful?:
@somerandomperson
Manipulation is, how I understand it, changing the outcome of something using actions which arent in line with the principle system or the morality system.Manipulation is completely natural, and is made for us to exploit. From materialistic manipulations of basic laws of nature to give us the luxurious life, to simple manipulations of behaviour to give us desirable results.
It is not the act of manipulation which is harmful, but I would argue, that the intent is.
Take this anecdote. A leader manipulated his people into fighting the enemy nations. Now in one instance put the leader as Hitler, and in the other as Churchill. Both did the same acts of manipulations, but history treats one kindly and the other not.
Very well said. I've never expected to get a complex answer, well, here.
Now, let's analyse the facts. They both had grand ideas about the future (Let's just ignore the "politics" and "semantics" here) and thought that was the way to go further. Evidently, one lost and the other won. What does this say about the topic or, even, common seance?
Manipulation (or persuasion) can be used to change the behavior or perception of others (guess that I've answered the first part of my question...). One might have "good" intentions, but get "bad" results. This is not a question of intentions. We've all thought that we were doing the right thing, at some point, and we were terribly wrong about it. The question is; Is the existence of this "technique" harmful or not?

@somerandomperson what the fuck are you talking about? Lol. I just said that its cool and I know that everyone have got their own opinion. It’s obvious.
Not sure about which comment/reply you're talking about but wasn't this whole conversation "cool"?
@Vlad20 said in What's the secret to/meaning of life?:
@somerandomperson
You don’t have to tell me I have got my own opinion, I already know that lol. Don’t get offended by it, no need.
That's not a bad thing. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. It's hard do get offended, I actually use common sense. You do your thing and I'll do mine. I respect your way of "being", just don't presume that everyone else will do the same.
@Tall-M said in What's the secret to/meaning of life?:
@Vlad20 why is that ?
I don't really do this, but I'm feeling that he wants this. He's either some kind of troll or just a dense person. Either way, he seem like someone with some troubling issues.
@Vlad20 said in What's the secret to/meaning of life?:
@somerandomperson
One of the most stupid questions I’ve ever heard. I feel sorry for those who question that
You're free to have any opinion you want. I do feel sorry for you though. Sorry.
@Rajeev2021 said in What's the secret to/meaning of life?:
@somerandomperson Self satisfaction in every way possible without getting into
troubles and without hurting anyone(except when you have no choice).
"Self satisfaction" Are you trying to prove my point? I'm not saying that this is good or bad, only human nature. It depends on what you're willing to do to achieve it. Right?
@wet-teri said in What's the secret to/meaning of life?:
@somerandomperson
Sometimes not always I would say the majority of the times no not human beings in general although I know certain peoplewho would always be that way and I know certain people we would never be that way and whether it's human nature or not it is a common occurrence for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
I do a lot of things that I do not get pleasure from some of those I am compensated for others I am not. And sometimes I just do it to get it out of the way because that would be the lesser of the two evils
Something like a family member thinking in a way that does not "mix" with your way of thinking and you'll just side with them in order to avoid a "discussion"? Or a friend that is having a bad day or is just in a bad place and is trying to pick a fight with everyone and you just ignore common sense to make things better? There are more examples out there, but the conclusion is the same. Your goal is to have a good/calm/happy life, to still have someone close to you when the day ends. You have a desire and, probably, a limit. We're always able to go to some lengths to achieve what we want.
