When I first became a part of the online Sith community I never had a problem with those I communicated with.
I joined the Order of Darth Matter to further my understanding, everyone in his order knew to be respectful, because the words you said there were real.
Now it seems that the online community is just rebels without a cause. Saying what they will, and to shy to do anything about it.
Sithusm is about being intelligent, but a philosopher is no warrior.
Sithism is about being strong, but a warrior isn't a philosopher.
Sithism combines these two things together to create one mass.
Now the first thing we must become is strong, because if your going to uphold an idea you better be ready to fight for it.
A warrior can destroy a philosopher and bring his life's work to nothing. The philosopher can say bad thing about the warrior and find the same fate.
So I ask you what is more prevalent, the aspiration to be more or the ability to talk more? Why claim power and be afraid to show it?
Who is more Sith, those that accept conflict or those that shy away because they are beyond conflict?

Why claim power and be afraid to show it? Who is more Sith, those that accept conflict or those that shy away because they are beyond conflict? To me it's about getting stuff done in life as a free agent. My students learn to live life on their own terms vs. be influenced slavea stuck in wage slavery etc to me. I agree sith are intelligent, smart, and powerful who wield their strength wisely as it suits them. I think what your saying about strength or intelligence are traits for me in my viewpoint. I don't trust what any of you say. khaos, draconis, and praxus I can trust because I know them and in ways seen more of them. I know they do what they preach and are very powerful people living their best life. Conflict is dumb for me when I have to do other things that take focus in my life. why fight over beleifs? I feel beyond it however I tend to embrace it when necessary. I am relentless and don't back down. Yet conflict is rare and my life is filled with other challenges. Conflict with others is loud and annoying. the steps I take while acknowledging the conflict inside as my body fights off death is quiet and honestly I like my silent solace. I don't need to fight another over my ideals. I discuss. maybe get in passionate fun debates. I make videos for my own fun, do document myself, and others to see I live my life. however I don't expect others to do that but it's why I don't trust what any of you are saying because without any proof it's all mental masturbation or words yet it has no worth or power to me. I wanted to see the person behind it not just the online mask. *shrugs* it's a dumb idea though with sith so I just went and do me every day. If I meet others along the way then cool. |

What do you mean by power though? I have asked this before and I dont believe I have gotten your answer yet.
What power does the warrior possess? What power does the philosopher possess if any in your mind?
Can a Sith be both at the same time?

Power is the ability to shut up and show.
I've been a construction worker my whole working life and their are two kinds of workers. Those that do their job proficiently and those that talk about what needs to be done. Both types have the label of construction worker, both can charge the same wage yet only one does what is expected.
Years ago Darth Lionack told me "let the Sith do as they will, their cults will show those that seek that they are nothing. let fools take the mantel of Dark Lord, when passionate words no longer fuel the followers that's when the true Sith will rise."
The Sith ranks are full of people who wish to be more yet they have no follow through.
But there is a small percentage that can take the ideals laid out and live by them.
Many will fall to the ideals of peace, but I will not be among them.

Eh then he disappeared and im' not sure if something happened to him. But he was cool. Wise words and yeah it sounds like he's say. He was so cool. The strong will stand out amongst the weak. |

They were always asking me for money and I was like yeah no. One time I let borrow 20 bucks and never got that back so oh well. Shit happens but their life did not seem very stable and they were a bit odd in the head but overall had good wisdom. |

If this is your definition of power then how do you define strength?

Strength is the physical ability to lift and the mental ability to focus and persever.

I also remember telling lionack to be careful with scamming and idk he didn't seem very stable. Lots of words but no physical job or power or income. they just lived off of others so idk....at least you work a job rofl. |

Strength is the physical ability to lift and the mental ability to focus and persever. Which comes first for a Sith? Strength or power? In other words What do you use to overcome fear? What initiates action? How is victory achieved? What is victory and how does that relate to freedom? |

Experience is how I deal with fear. I've been through enough in my life that nothing seems totally new to me. I've been thirsty and I've starved, I've been beaten and left to drag myself together alone. I do not deny that i feel fear, but it doesn't alter my course.
Being human initiates action, dont we all lust for more? Don't we all seek after some great idea of who we wish to be?
Victory is the realization of what one has set off to achieve. I have accomplished many goals but I have not come to my main goal as of yet.
I don't really seek freedom in a sense. Freedom much like peace are ideals for the weak, they are words said to inspire fools and nothing more. Passion, strength, power, and victory are realistic and can be possessed. So I consentrate on them.

It seems you don't retain much vixen. You are the problem. You say the Sith are disgusting, yet you are the worst of us.

It's what I know and it's based on my superior experience, knowledge and wisdom. I know that may sound arrogant but it's really not. It's just simple humble fact. You would be wise to check your ego and put away your muscles and try actually listening and being honest with yourself for a change. Not all find their way to this path in the same way. Some through trauma and some through great conflict and others through true near death. Its obvious you have not found your way here through any of these paths but artificially by lying and pretending. However you are still not a lost cause, if you can conquer your own fear and truly let go and humble yourself in the face of the true abyss.

You know nothing about me. You only think you know, and your arrogant enough to believe your own falsehoods.
