Discussion : Is it bad or good to “let go” of past injustices?

[thecel]

My parents say to me, just like most parents say to their kids, that I should let go of unfair treatment that I receive and just move on with my life. They tell me to not be angry and vengeful about injustices and to instead focus on bettering myself for a better future.

Justice is a very important subject to me, and my view is that people should never “let go” of injustices. I strongly believe that letting injustices slide is an unjust act itself—I see injustice as debt that must not go unpaid. While I admit that it’s usually not worthwhile to retaliate/revenge on stuff that happened a long time ago—for instance, it isn’t so smart to spend years tracking down your middle school bully just to hit him/her back—I nonetheless support and admire revenge-seekers such as Niko Bellic in GTA IV. There’s a caveat: I only support revenge/retaliation that’s based on rational ethical/moral principles of justice, and acting in retaliation/revenge from solely emotional motives is bad.

IMO, even if someone decides to not pursue revenge/retaliation, (s)he should never, ever let go of injustices that others inflict on him/her. Letting go, or worse, forgetting, is extremely low-T and soycucked. I say always hold injustices close to your heart because justice is as important as life itself.

I see it as neutral, but the feeling of mogging the people that made fun of you is priceless

 

[AlexAP]

It's good to seek revenge, but you shouldn't overdo it.

-im just using the example of bullying because that's what comes to mind

Bad things generally happen for a reason and will likely continue to happen if it's something you can not change. And even if it can be change in theory you may be incapable of changing said thing due to the person you become from your genetics/environment. So you can continue to forget about these things but you will constantly have negative experiences, and even if you don't the person in the past perceived you as inferior, weaker etc and decided you were a suitable target. Whether you forget about it or not that person thought you were beneath them for things you can not control, they may as well be making fun of someone who was born crippled at that point. So no you shouldn't forget it unless you don't care about others morality and how it effects yourself or others

Idk but you should just stay away from society (e.g. become shut-in) as an incel

You're asking this relative to the betterment of society?

No. You should be willing to do whatever it takes to get your fair share of dominance. Gotta give it your all. We should all be fed up with the mistreatment.

To all ugly and short people: Carry your guns with pride, and stand up for you and your people only. If they dare to touch you once, shoot them ten times.

Look at the way Asians are treated:

Four Black girls charged in anti-Asian subway train attack in Philadelphia

The Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office charged the suspects, ages 13 to 16, with aggravated assault and ethnic intimidation.

thegrio.com

Asians aren’t seen as dominant. The non-Asian majority in the West perceives them as weak, wimpy, and unmasculine. The reason is Asians don’t retaliate and don’t get revenge. If you shout the N-word at a Black man, you get hospitalized or killed. If you shout the C-word at an Asian man, nothing significant would happen to you probably. I’m sick of the power imbalance. It’s time for every man of Mongoloid descent to rise up, team up, and never stop fighting until the enemies’ maxillas are ripped from their pathetic skulls.

Heads high, carry your guns with pride, never let fucking injustices slide.

I ask are retaliation and revenge good or bad relative to whatever you believe is right.

 

[thecel]

In a GTA server someone wronged me badly so I fucked up his car and I felt deeply satisfied after doing it.

It better not be his IRL car bruh

It doesn't matter what's right. But injustices toward useful members of society have to be addressed if the immediate power establishment expects to maintain their power.

 

[thecel]

It doesn't matter what's right.

This sentence is a perfect example of what’s wrong with society. The issue isn’t hate but indifference. Someone said that the opposite of love isn’t hate, it’s indifference, because both love and hate mean you care. Way too many people plainly don’t give enough fucks about the terrible issues in the world. The villains aren’t criminals, politicians, corporations, etc. they’re us. The real villains are the masses who don’t give enough shits to do something about the injustices they witness all the fucking time.

Even within society, people will put themselves first.

Yes, put yourself 1st. I totally agree. But care about others too. You don’t have to care about everyone; just care about your own “kind” of people—people who have the same unfortunate circumstances as you and who go/went through the same struggles as you. Men should help other men. Short men should fight for short men. Ugly men should back up ugly men. Blackpillers should unite and shut down bluepillers. Melvins should fight against Chads.

You know what’s a huge fucking disgrace? When a Melvin ascends from an incel to a rich businessman with a wife, but Melvin doesn’t give a penny of his money to help other sub-5 males.

 

[thegoat]

nothings inherently good or bad. It's a matter of personal opinion. Personally I find it hard to let go because I've always valued sticking to my principles and having honour very highly. But one could also argue that not letting go of past injustices is irrational in many cases, for example if your childhood bully became a CEO and offered you a high-paying position, would you say no just because he wronged you 10 years ago.

 

[Deleted member 16134]

Might is right no such thing as injustice

 

[ETO]

I don't know man I hardly ever think about the past but about the racism thing let me tell you its all about your demeanor. Just be relaxed and look confident. I go out at night alot and nothing ever happens, and you should look forward to those kinds of conflicts its a real exciting thing.

imagine someone intentionally going out their way to harm you in any way and you just forgive
