Are you very wholesome?

[Discount_Blade]

1) I'm probably not very wholesome.

2) Very little. I like that burning sensation I get when I bask in my own corruption. It's intoxicating.

3) Nope. It burns. But not in a good way.

4) Because people in general suck and are evil therefore we should all just go out and randomly maul and rip and tear and devour and break our enemies.

5) What do you think?

1. I consider myself quite wholesome. I don't actively try to screw people or the world over for self gain. It's why I'm mainly vegan, but will eat the meat presented to me. It's already dead, and the waste of refusal is just disrespectful in many ways. I keep up to date on world events and issues, which allows me to not support the dark greed of some companies and countries. Like I don't buy games from developers known for employee abuse. Be it unpaid crunch, or harassment like Ubisoft and Blizzard. And I try to not buy Chinese because the CCP supports slavery, live prisoner organ harvesting, racism and controls all companies in China, because you're mandated to have a CCP branch in your company if you have more than 50 employees.

2. I need a lot of wholesome. Because I refuse to be willfully ignorant of the world, I learn just how dark and greedy humans still are.

3. Of course. It reminds me life isn't just about getting power, be it money, political, or militarily, regardless of the cost to others.

4. Unfortunately excess greed is a part of our DNA if primate studies are to be believed.

5. Empathy is a skill. Even someone like me, who is a total introvert with a fear of crowds can practice it. Just by imagining yourself into other's situations you are practicing your skill. I 'think' I'm as wholesome as I can get without leaving for the pony rainbow land of willful ignorance or having the big bucks to actually boycott all the things I find distasteful. But hey, change in oneself is surprisingly invisible.

Apart from listening to my stories, my everyday life is kinda wholesome. We tend to support each other and help out, i tend to meet people who had a depressing life and gave meaningful advices while listening to their stories, would sometimes be supportive of people's difficulties and guide them to a clear path which doesn't involve religion or political standpoint(basically give him his/her own choice while striving to live his/her life), and the occasional chat with everyday people.

While i do have a pretty rough life(Just an average Filipino life), we are pretty wholesome to others and even help them in their trouble times, makes jokes(dark jokes but its normally to basically laugh it off like we don't take it seriously) and even if we have a religious standpoint, we do not preach nor proclaim but just use it as a virtue in our way of life.

Not really, I'm a cynic, a pragmatist, greedy and selfish. I tolerate wholesome things and people a little bit but eventually they make me sick.

 

[RepresentingCaution]

"Wholesome" is a very subjective concept that depends on one's personal beliefs. Personally, I think that activities that could result in life (sex) are always wholesome as long as everyone involved consents. Some people think that such activities are only wholesome between cisgendered, heterosexual, monogamously married individuals. Wholesomeness is in the eye of the beholder, and it's perfectly fine to behold one's self.

What?! I'm shocked!

...For some reason, I always thought of you as super empathetic...

It's a lot easier to be nice on the Internet. People can type and such and we can all easily interject and offer advice, etc. As I said, on the Internet, I also don't have to deal with stuff that cause me anxiety like my tone, my body language, being ignored, and stuff. It also helps that we don't know each other personally. Everything makes it easier for me to be nice or have the intiiative to give a helping hand.

But in real life, I'm probably the weeb at the corner of the workplace/classroom who just ignores most people and rarely participates in discussions. Even if things happen, I often just go on with what I'm doing. You know, just typing away and talking only when talked to. But I'm not super broody I think

Even so, I think the way that you choose to present yourself on the Internet says a lot about yourself!

I mean, it's very easy to be mean on the Internet. If anything, at least I think it's relatively rare to be thoughtful and nice the way you are. It feels very sincere, and it's always really enjoyable to read your posts on the forum.

Agreed, as an independent Buddhist, I think pleasuring yourself and others is always more wholesome than violence. I would so go far as to say prostitution is a far more noble job than it's advertised and should be legal and inspected. It's done Las Vegas just fine. The legality protects women from being forced into sex slavery, excuse me 'human sex trafficking' as the PC police would call it. And the weekly STD tests keep disease down compared to the underworld we got now.

Thanks for the compliments :)

I guess you can see it that way too.

I was thinking about this, but how wholesome are you?

How much wholesome-ness do you need in your life?

Do wholesome things make you feel good?

Why are we not more wholesome?

Do you ever wish that you were more wholesome?

1). Not really wholesome. I'm a psychopathic killer who kills with kindness.

2). A lot. And I mean A LOT.

3). Yep. And fluffy things too.

4). Well, people had different priorities. And different ways of looking at the half-empty glass of water.

5). Yep. I even wish I had no depressive episodes.

IRL I'm that weird teacher who's always doing quirky and weird (in a wholesome way) stuff.

Yet you complain like a wimp when people give you an ounce of the vitriol you spew.

Crushing incels never gets old to me.

So I guess I'm not that wholesome either.

I'm as wholesome as your average Japanese horror movie.

Quite a bit actually. It's like alcohol, it gives you a nasty burning sensation, makes you vomit and disorients your senses, but you do feel a slight feeling of liberation, for which you then immerse yourself in guilt for a short period of time later

They make me feel wholesome

I'm pretty sure you're not using the word incel right. Is your name also Moonpearl? And crushing? LOL. Please rein in your ego before it strangles you.

No to all?

Yes. No to all.

[Luxican]

I would consider myself pretty wholesome(at least in the definition of the word I thought of), because of my meager experience with relationships in general, I don't get certain jokes or mean comments immediately and even laugh at them...

I also forgive bad behavior towards me for a long time and I try to always be friendly, even to people that would probably not deserve it

And I'm very empathetic, I cry at minor things in movies/books as long as I put myself in the character's position

 

[TLCsDestiny]

I'd say I'm halfsome...yeah...

Man forget being globally recognized as a handsome man. being called "good looking" by a random old lady in retail is all it takes to fulfill that inner beauty standard
