>Well, what about the massacres in Sri Lanka, honey? Doesn't that affect us too? Do you know anything about Sri Lanka? How, the Sikhs are killing tons of Israelis over there?
I'm not gonna lie, I use a variation of this quote to mess with annoying people, also I add in stuff like the Ishvalan War(from full metal alchemist) and most Idiots just reply with, "Oh I read an article about. just terrible stuff happening "
that legitimately sounds very spergy
So your response to people who want to talk about things is to tell them nothing matters because you're a shitlord? Bet people think you're annoying, brother.
Its not as obviously fake as Bryce's one, its more subtle and its only against sjw types
nah, its just to miss them, you can't say "Oh I care about the world" and not know I'm know I'm lying when Im talking about a made up Civil war in Indonesia
>i have to return some videotapes
I always use this to escape a conversation now.
is there a line someone has to cross where they suddenly "care too much" , and then you decide it has to be a lie
just against woke liberals and no one else
oh no... you’re a brain dead Yas Forums tourist. forgot what board I was on.
>shitlord
not a Yas Forumstard, hell my girlfriend is black and is redpilled
I use a line of thought from Peter Singer to justify my apathy towards any kind of charitable endeavour.
Basically he argued that if you knew giving a dollar to homeless guy on your street would mean the difference between life and death for him, you'd probably give him the dollar
But it shouldn't make a difference if he's on your street, or the next street over, or anywhere in the world.
Any luxury you allow yourself, that money would be better spent saving a life somewhere in the world. So logically you should be maximising your income while minimising your outgoings, essentially living in squalor like an ascetic.
Of course no one does this because everyone draws the line somewhere between their own pleasure and the suffering of others. I just choose to draw it much closer to my own pleasure than most
Yes
not an argument albeit most likely fake to justify your non-argument when you spout like those autists seething about “us” vs “them”
Nigger hahahhahahhahahahahaha
>gurlfren is black
Can I ask why?
Impressive, very nice
I don't have any sort of racial preferences, will date white, black and brown(though not Asians) just into tall thin girls
Black girls are desperate and will date anything.
Very nice, Bateman
In the book it is meant to portray their mindset. They know so little of what goes on in the world around them, could care less of other people’s pain but yet pretends that they do just because it is what everyone does. It shows the signs of classic apathy of a sociopath.
So in essence, the quote is actually making fun of people like yourself. The fact that you unironically use it shows what a caricature of a person you are.
Let's be honest: you imagine doing that in your head. You don't have any friends to do this to.
>could care less of other people’s pain
So they still care?
Now that's a stylish hairline
I use it too make fun of people pretending that they care for woke social points, I have no problem against the people who actually care and try
>gotcha!

Except everyone does this in America outside of maybe 1% of people. Nobody truly understands the suffering of the misfortunate, but they'll prop them up in "woke" twitter posts or use them to appear more intellectual in any social situation. How many people actually expose themselves to the hardships of foreign poor people in third world countries? Not many.
Even my own post to an extent is leveraging them to bash another group of people. So I think the "point" that none of the yuppies care is weak. Very few people truly care period.
I don't have many friends but I have annoying work mates and people I'm forced to interact with
Here's the thing, how do you personally know the difference? It's pretty intellectually dishonest to claim you know what goes on in someone's head, as far as intent.
Wait... so there no massacres of israelis by sikhs?
No you don't
Sri Lanka was an Allied Nation during WW-II when Jews were condemned to death by Nazi. Japan bombed our capital city of Colombo during the war for our status as an Ally. There are no people of Jewish descent at large here, though if there are they were never killed for it.
In the book, Bryce mistakenly refers to the “killing fields”, a controversial documentary that portrayed the civil war in Sri Lanka at the time as a genocide of Tamil ethnic group of Sri Lankans. This is far from the truth. It was propaganda by an internationally banned terrorist group by the name of LTTE.
that's bryce's cousin
The people that actually care do something about it. Anyone can cry or feel bad for someone. It takes no investment.
My point is that I don't care, and don't pretend to. It's making fun of people who are superficially altruistic i.e. everyone in our society. The yuppies are just more overt about it in this scene
Appreciate this, breh.
You seem pretty based, but you didn’t get dubs...
>Jews were condemned to death by Nazi
Do you have any evidence of that? I've heard it said for as long as I can remember, but so far the only proof I've been offered is "sworn testimony" of history's most noted liars who have a conflict of interest.
>shitlord
Go back
One group of people claim they care, yet all they do is trade likes on stupid facebook memes, the other group have deluded themselves enough to actually believe they care, and go outside to try and make a change.
>Well, what about the massacres in Sri Lanka, honey? Doesn't that affect us too? Do you know anything about Sri Lanka? How, the Sikhs are killing tons of Israelis over there?
This sounds like a classic Hollywood speech.
Well, we have to end Yas Forums for one. And slow down the reddit invasion, stop e-girl threads and phoneposting. We have to provide sex and digits for the incels, and oppose racist infographics, promote trap acceptance, while also promoting a safe space for women. We have to encourage a return to traditional imageboard values. Most importantly, we have to promote general thoughtful discussion and less shitposting in newfags.
>How, the Singles are killing tons of Dubs Threads over there?
Based
>We have to provide sex and digits for the incels
Yes. They're owed.
Its really not that hard getting a gf, I'm a highschool drop out and most people don't like me, but anytime I see a woman I like I ask them out, if she rejects me then I give up, wait a bit and go for the next one
I have had 3 gf's who were all my looksmatch
>piece of media portrays character in positive or masculine light
>armchair intellectuals pop up with the "ackshually it's making fun of people like that" take
Boring. You faggots pop up in every Fight Club thread too. The /lit/ equivalent is people saying The Prince by Machiavelli is satire. It just shows you're weak. For the record, I don't give two shits who American Psycho/Fight Club/The Prince "is making fun of".
Just because you don't like an interpretation doesn't mean you're right. That is what Fight Club is, and it isn't whatever you want it to be. Deal with it, and maybe let go of your grudge against high school English class.
>those autists seething about “us” vs “them”
Haha yes, THOSE autists seething about "us vs them" as opposed to your gracious more inclusive worldview, where it's people like US vs autists like THEM. Retard.
If you'd paid attention in high school English class you'd also realize authorial intent doesn't matter and it literally is whatever I want it to be.
If you’d skipped school like an intelligent person you’d realize that’s a retarded copout.
What enhances the irony is that Sikhs are probably the only major religious group that never genocided anybody. Reprised violence with violence yeah, but never went to the effort to piss off or alienate others just for fun. What is even more ridiculous is that people confuse them with Muslims when Muslims have absolutely been deadset on genociding them for centuries
Hey, you're the one who brought up English class. All I'm saying is I'm bored of the people who think they're smart for coming up with "b-but actually it's making fun of him!!!" You can make that argument with nearly every piece of media. There are people who say Socrates didn't even exist and Plato just made him up. The Prince is satire. Might is Right is satire. Nietzsche is satire. Everything I don't like is satire. You're not smart for thinking this. It's not an interesting take. It's up there with the "dude what if the main character is actually in a coma" theories.
>another “woke” Yas Forums tourist who think saying nigger anonymously is empowering
you’re like a child whose said their first curse word, double nigger
yes... you can... are you stupid?
>IQ IQ 100-120
Fight Club is making fun of people like Tyler Durden.
>IQ >100
Tyler Durden is cool and worthy of emulation.
Well if they respond about how much they care about a non-existent atrocity then that's a pretty big sign.
That wasn’t me, but you sound mad for no good reason. Taking every “attack” on masculinity personally makes you seem insecure btw.
Was Bryce Bateman’s only real friend?
I absolutely would not give a dollar to a homeless person if I knew it meant the difference between life and death. In fact, I'd revel in the knowledge that my inaction directly lead to the death of a bum.
