It Was Not "Blacks" Who Invented Pervert Stoicism Phil

Stoicism's Greece Philosophy order people to alter their mindset
for the sake to adapt to every single condition. It means
including encourage to alter our mindset if the oppression and
westernization terrorize the world with free-market and
capitalism today. So we can adapt with it, not feel sad and
oppressed and try change it into a condition which resulting
social justice and equity.
Any people, including the leftist who promote Stoicism and
encourage people to life using it deserve execution. Because
they deflate our struggle to enforce socialism and social
justice.
It was "whites", it was them who invented that liberal morality.
They made a philosophical life which resulting human live in
lower cultural level.
Haitian Revolution's spirit was superior rather than inferior
French Revolution which resulting enhancement of liberalism.
Because French revolution merely promoting "human liberty", not
human empathy.

And what I'm predict through write on how Stoicism's philosophy
works is true. On this day I read further about that philosophy
and including it's history. The result was surprising. See this
written content below from various articles.
[quote]For instance, Cato was deeply committed to the idea of
Roman libertas. Yet equally fervently, he cherished the idea of
moderation—the natural and obligatory but self-imposed check on
freedom. Seneca believed in kindness and mercy. Antipater and
Diogenes believed in sympatheia—our interconnectedness, but also
in the self-correcting mechanisms of the market in a way that
presaged the later Stoic writings of the economist Adam Smith.
And it was Marcus Aurelius who, inspired by Thrasea and
Helvidius came to believe in a society of equal laws with free
speech and a ruler who respects their subjects.[/quote]

[quote]Stoic conception of freedom is primarily a psychological
one, Stoicism was nonetheless hostile to autocratic despotism
and looked back with nostalgia to the pre-​imperial days
of participatory republicanism and the rule of law. Adherents of
Stoicism are numbered among the assassins of Julius Caesar and
the would-​be assassins of the Emperor Nero.
...
Stoicism cast a long shadow on later thought. The apostle Paul
came from Tarsus, a center of Stoic learning, and he frequently
cited Stoic authors favorably. A forged correspondence between
Paul and Seneca ensured the latter’s popularity among the early
Christians, and such writers as Augustine and Boethius were
responsible for incorporating a great deal of Stoic thought into
Christian theology. In later centuries, Stoicism exercised a
powerful influence on the development of classical liberalism
through such works as [color=red]John Locke’s Two Treatises of
Government, Jean-​Jacques Rousseau’s Discourses, Adam
Smith’s Theory of Moral Sentiments, and the ethical writings of
Immanuel Kant.[/quote]

[quote]Stoic cosmopolitanism categorically rules out certain
political positions, such as Naziism, or overtly corrosive
instantiations of identity politics.
...
Sometimes Stoics have made grave political errors : the ancients
acknowledge the moral equality of slaves but stopped short of
advocating actual political liberty and social dignity for them,
for example (a mistake that the “Southern Stoics” of the United
States repeated centuries later), and, oddly, they
[color=red]refused to consider that we might have any moral
duties toward animals whatsoever.[/quote]

stoicism then is a form of toxic masculinity, because in stoics
eyes if you show "feminine" traits like being spontaneous or
expressing yourself with emotion then your mentally weak, or
that your haven't disciplined yourself enough, or that there's
something wrong with you, or that your a terrorist if you have a
arab/islamic background(**** JEWS/"WHITES"!!!, they all need to
burn in hell forever).
Stoicism shows you how to take western violence while shutting
up about it, its also a form of toxic individuality. I
definitely suffer from some unconscious stoic traits.
Also growth mindset is turaninan, because it makes you have to
be in constant movement so that "you can grow".

St. Paul's philosophical foundation to Western Colonialism
[quote]Despised and often tortured, it is not strange that early
Christians renounced the things of the world and turned to
contemplation of everlasting life. Statements in the Bible which
speak of the humiliation of the world, condemning the rich who
oppress their workers ("Now you rich men, weep and wail over the
misery that is about to come upon you. Your wealth is rotten and
your clothes are moth eaten"), then turned to the neglected
workers and asked them to be patient, endure their fate, and
wait for the coming of the Lord.2 Even St. Paul told the slaves
"to obey your masters on earth with fear and trembling... you
know that every man, whether slave or free, if he does something
good, he will receive a reward from God."3 Bear with the
sufferings of the world this is because it is nothing but
preparation for the serene life to come.[/quote]
Political Philosophy by Henry Schmandt page 146
How can "free people" does something good when they enslaving
other innocents. Not surprise if the "white" colonizers feel not
guilty on enslaving the "blacks" until coercive pressures from
the world community 500 years later.

Stoicism were Naturalist Philosophy
[quote]...Solomon ibn Gabirol, an eleventh-century Jewish
philosopher, put it this way: "And they say : At the pinnacle of
all understanding - is the awareness of what can and cannot be
done, and considering what is not in our power to say it."
Shantideva, an eighth-century Buddhist scholar, writes
similarly: "Supposing there be a remedy when trouble strikes /
What is the reason for refusing it? / And if there is no help
for it / What is the use of grieving?"
But there is an even more ancient version: "Make the best of
what is within your power, then let the rest happen. Some are up
to our wishes, some are not. Our views are ours, and so are our
drives, longings, and feelings. hate - short word, anything we
make of ourselves. Our bodies are not up to us, nor are our
property, our reputation, or our public office, or anything that
is not our own doing". It is found in Epictetus' Enchiridion or
Handbook, right at the beginning. Because this idea is
fundamental to the teachings of Epictetus, and crucial to the
entire system of Stoic philosophy from the time of Zeno, we
begin our exploration of Stoicism by discussing it in some
detail.
The parallels between these teachings show that the influence of
Stoic craftsmanship has been widespread, though often unnoticed,
over the centuries. In addition, some key concepts of Stoicism
are found in other philosophical and religious traditions,
including Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, and Taoism. ...
...
...The universe is not subject to your will, it is doing its own
thing; bosses, co-workers, stockholders, clients, and a host of
other factors are all part of the universe, so why do you expect
them all to act as you say?
Stoics later refined this idea of ethical development and called
it oikeiosis, which is often translated as "customization to" or
"adjustment to" other people's interests as if they were our
own. ...[/quote]

Answer :
Willingness to commit justice based on universalism and
non-western socialism must be enforced to the world, regardless
the people who don't want it are not the subject of our will.
And we not want make adjustment to the interest of westerners as
if they were our own. Grieving is part of awreness that the
world is evil and the oppressor is evil, so we will resist the
oppressor even though it must through grieving. How can we know
that there are oppressors on this world if we not feel sad and
grieving on their oppressive actions while we struggle to
destroy them. Surprisingly, the writers not mention Islam as
compatible religious teaching to Stoicism. Because Islam teaches
people to control other people to not doing capitalism,
racialism, and democracy, not let them being free only because
they are cannot be on our subject of will
Recall on Hitler's view on world religion

Stoicism promotes an attitude that encourages people to adapt to
oppressive and competitive activity which dissolves societal
unity. Not encourage people to feel oppressed and try to end it
[quote]Stoics pursue the Cardinal Virtues, and see living in
accordance with these principles as more important than
externalities like wealth.
Prudence--The ability to judge between actions with regard to
appropriate actions at a given time
Courage--Fortitude, forbearance, strength, endurance, and the
ability to confront fear, uncertainty, and intimidation
Temperance--as restraint, the practice of self-control,
abstention, discretion, and moderation tempering the appetition
Justice--fairness, the most extensive and most important virtue;
the Greek word also having the meaning righteousness
Smith has also been held up as an example of a virtue ethicist
as well as an economic philosopher. He valued all of the Stoic
virtues as well as sub-virtues like thrift, honesty or purity.
Certainly, the capitalist or investor needs these
virtues--particularly courage in the face of risk and
competition.[/quote]

Rathmann, C. (2018, March 5). There may seem to be little
overlap between the economic philosophy of capitalism and the
ethical and spiritual discipline of Stoicism. The former deals
with the flow of value in a market economy. Linkedin.com.

Stoicism philosophy which encourage us to see anything with
neutrality and objectivity, actually sides with western
eugenicist attitude
[quote]We put down mad dogs; we kill the wild, untamed ox; we
use the knife on sick sheep to stop their infecting the flock;
we destroy abnormal offspring at birth; children, too, if they
are born weak or deformed, we drown. Yet this is not the work of
anger, but of reason – to separate the sound from the
worthless[/quote]
