Agadmators youtube chess channel is terrific.
One of my uncles' big interest in life was Chess. His favorite chess heroes were Capablanca and Paul Murphy. My father worshiped Bridge. He hated chess, probably because he had been defeated a lot by his brother when he was young. It fell to my uncle to give me a chess board and introduce me to the game. Doesn't matter. My father and I had almost nothing in common and none of my parents ever gave any support or took an interest in anything that interested me. (They didn't have any money anyway). With one exception: My father took me to the library every Saturday. That, I'm grateful for. Otherwise, it seems the little parenting I got was mostly from my uncle and my grandmother. Relatively, age and non-club player, I was fairly good when I was young. I could put up what I imagine was a somewhat credible resistance against a junior champion and later, another time, a club player (no chance of winning though). Outside of such environments I was used to winning. But I haven't played since I was a kid, and I've got confirmed a couple of times of how much I've forgotten and how rusty I am. There doesn't seem to be the time to get into it again. Pity, in a way, but you can't do all things. But yeah, I also watch Agadmators channel now and then.

Unironically quoting Machiavelli, so many times, was not what I expected from reading 11 pages of this thread.
The desperation of untermenschen believing that the world is the reason they are held back from their rightful place as ubermensch, is such a sad state of low self-esteem. And ignorance.
The world isn't stopping you, but you may have misled yourself into thinking it's holding you back. This is a lack of creativity, and not insurmountable.
In short, this thread seems like weaksauce Politics Thread RC 3.1, instead of general wisdom there are paeans to will to power.
I leave this with a quote about Atlas Shrugged -
"This is not a novel to be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force" -Dorothy Parker

Hehe, here is another quote by Lukas: Unfortunately, it is one of those cases when context matters. These quotes come from 1989 Lukas' article where he was arguing for the implementation of Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works. Among other things this convention recognizes author's moral rights, which was not a thing in US: Essentially, Lukas wasn't saying that works of art must not be changed under any circumstanses, rather he was arguing that authors should have the right to object to such changes by corporations that hold copyrights. As an example he quotes a case where director John Huston protested colorization of his movie 'The Maltese Falcon' several years prior. George Lukas articlearticle about Maltese Falcon
