There are several autistic celibates on this forum who have sublimated their libidos to the liberal-plutocratic paradigm of achieving material success.
To these poor souls, rendered impotent by inceldom, an expanding bank account serves as a substitute for an expanding erection. This would be unremarkable on its own if not for the extraordinary statements that they have made regarding the ego.
You see, they claim that to give your life over to the pursuit of economic success requires you to subdue your ego, but this is rather absurd on the face of it, because what is egotism if not the type of greed for material possessions and hedonistic desires that they espouse?
Clearly, they retain an ego, and I posit that they have merely modified it according to their socially suggested "superego" -- which they've absorbed from the cultural hegemony of liberal-plutocracy, wherein "success" is synonymous with "salvation."
That is, they have went from having a primitive, childlike, and narcissistic ego, which is overly concerned with the opinions of others and conducive to daydreaming, to a more refined, mature, and psychopathic ego, which cares less about others and is more based in reality, but is similarly self-centered and avaricious.
As they observe, Machiavellian psychopaths are the ruling class, and they seek to emulate their model, which understands humans as being mere animals and life as having no meaning outside of survival. The narcissistic model, on the other hand, is quite effeminate in their view -- empathy and morality being nothing but disingenuous covers for narcissistic virtue signalling.
As true as the relationship between empathy/morality and effeminate, narcissistic virtue signalling may be, there is a blatant contradiction in their psychopathic critique of narcissism:
If life has no meaning outside of survival, then why care about success?
This is a contradiction I've often seen in psychopathic-plutocratic ethics, and the answer has to do with the necessity of austerity under liberal-capitalism.
You see, it just so happens that in order to have any chance of achieving success under this system, you have to grind 24/7, and work yourself to the bone. The only way of justifying such an existence to yourself is the promise of a better future, which, of course, is not guaranteed and not even likely, but becomes a focal point in the mind that constantly triggers dopamine and assuages the cognitive dissonance between the ego and the id.
Paradoxically, by striving for success, you embrace a lifestyle where you are just barely surviving, and psychopathic-plutocratic aspirants have developed their own way of coping with this, which is promoted by the culture at large as a form of "hazing."
These celibates have been placed under a debt by the world -- the debt of autism and low SMV -- and so they hesitatingly assume the role of debt slaves, who might one day "buy their freedoms" and even become aristocrats themselves. Brutal shit, man. Damn, damn. tbhngl
