do you guys think it's better to live with your delusions and just put up with them, or try to be a more "responsible" person and try not to be delusional?

>>938462429 (OP)
my delusions are too based to ignore

>>938462429 (OP)
I ruthlessly pursue the truth.
Even if it makes my life harder and pisses others off.
I think it's a trait you're born with. You either actually care about reality or you don't.

My delusions involve a proletariat uprising against heirarchical systems of control hellbent on enslaving the future of humanity for profit, power and the eventual ruin of all habitable life on earth.

So…it depends on how I'm feeling.

>>938462429 (OP)
I wish I had delusions then it would justify my jadedness.

>>938462429 (OP)
Commit to being delusional. Only fags pretend to be normal

I hardly think the division goes like that. There is a shared reality where we find common ground, but under it a complex web of delusions making us wake up everyday and do the same thing again. That's why corporate slaves in their 50s are so interesting: the usual incentives don't apply anymore, they've seen how the sausage is made and it's an utter lie that there is happiness to find at the end of the rainbow. Life is a song and if you spend all your time busy saving the last chorus as a coronation prize, you are fucked.

From my perspective, I am fundamentally skeptical of myself. As a soul. As an entity that inhabits the body I fundamentally doubt.
The body and its associated subjective experiences are the result and consequence of social institutions humans have erected. Which not only shape me but construct the type of ideas and beliefs I can rationally perceive at this moment in humanity.
To be deluded is to think otherwise. It's to ride the premise that beliefs are solid, follow a linear geneology through time, and are the result of rational choice through cognition.
That we all "chose" to believe in our religion, lake thereof, material pursuits, ideals, etc.
