what did he mean by this? did he secretly just want to genocide all city dwelling life?
I hate people. I don't want to be around them, I don't want to look at them, I don't want to hear them. People only fight, they only cause pain and trauma to each other.
I'm convinced there's no good people in this world. You can do your best to be a good person, to try to help people, but they'll hate you for it; they'll hurt you for it. That's why there's no good people, because it doesn't get you anything. Victims are perpetrators and monsters are appeased. They look the other way when you're getting beaten down. It's absurd but that's the reality. You're alone and you have to watch out for yourself.
The only reason I can come post here is because no one can hurt me and mean words are just banter. This is the only place I've belonged. The outside world is hell. Life is hell, and this existence is hell.
Imagine life as an ent. Watching the seasons pass, resting undistributed in your forest.

Ents are an interesting look at male female domestic conflict in expectations, ents want freedom to pursue interest and to roam, the. Ent wives want to settle down, nest, garden and civilize.
Kinda funny Sauron and Melkor probably used them to breed trolls. Evil gave the entwives the stability the ents did not.
Kinda like Toilkien foresaw the single moms and their nagger babies being subsidized by the state

People are tribalistic. If you give them a set of cues that signal you are part of their tribe, then they will like you, it has nothing to do with morality. It is like sex, women sticking up for their abusive boyfriend, dudes who simp for some crazy bipolar chick who keeps cheating on them.
Also it is worth noting that being good means making a sacrifice, if it were to your benefit it would not be good, it would just be garden variety self-interest. However people do respect good people, they may not realize it right away. They key is to do things that are visibly good but which are at little expense, for example putting the carts back, cleaning up after yourself, small gifts on birthdays and cakes.

Anon, this doesn't sound like something a good person would write.
you can't just discard the entire population of humanity because you were dealt a bad hand. you know people here would help you if they could, but we're just posters on Cinemaphile.
>I'm convinced there's no good people in this world
I can convince you that you are not good, even though you may think you are, and that you are as tribalisc and individualistic as everyone else.
Pic related is the proof. I lose sleep and get angry knowing animals are being tortured daily and we are not updating our laws to attempt to track them, so we can prevent this from ever happening. We can't even catch after the fact, because... we don't do autopsies on dead animals to look for abuse.
Now, I want to change this. I understand we need to spend money (and be taxed for this). And I want it, because I give a shit about animals - you don't, since, they are not your tribe, so why should you care for them? So you don't care, because you are tribalistic and individualist at your core.
I'm not tho.
>I'm convinced there's no good people in this world
There is, its literally me. I exist, but I am extremely rare. Genuinely good people are only those that care outside their tribe. We are extremely rare, the capacity for empathy only exist in 1 to 5% of the population of the world. It is not a trait that got to reproduce at good rate, since its not needed for reproduction - only up to the point that people FORM tribes through empathy, and they attack the other tribes.
This is why you type of humans are caught in this issue, of being in a world of both kindness and aggressiveness. You have enough empathy for tribalistic behavior, but not for more than that, and you are trapped in that conflict forever, and animals will suffer forever because your genes can't care about them.
this post remind me of my cousin. he locked himself in the washing machine (he was a small guy and it was a big machine) and gassed himself with bleach and ammonia. No one would until his siblings threw their clothes in, set to wash, and what came next was not pretty. I'm getting sick just thinking about it. The point is, don't be like him because you end up gruesomely killing yourself. Consider joining a monastery and being a monk. Drink ale and archive scripture. Just take it nice and easy, buddy.
>he locked himself in the washing machine (he was a small guy and it was a big machine) and gassed himself with bleach and ammonia
Jesus fucking christ man, what led him to do that?
do you want to sit there for hours watching treebeard and the hobbits wait for all the ents to show up? besides treebeard had recently called a moot so they should all have still been in around the same area at the time.
Trees are based, humanity is cringe. Wake up to reality. The longer you live, the more you realize that the only things that truly exist in this reality are merely pain, suffering and futility. Nothing in this accursed world ever goes according to plan. As long as there is a concept of victors, the vanquished will also exist. The dominance hierarchy that binds human society and the social dynamic of every living creature just as tightly as DNA binds our cells will always give way to conflict and suffering.
>watches his entire generation cut down by newly industrialized warfare >watches his beloved countryside get bulldozed and polluted
hmm why did he hate industrialization
What's up with the Scouring of the Shire in the book after the ring is destroyed? Like what's the thematic purpose of this conflict and Saruman being the last antagonist after a trilogy titled Lord of the rings
The Nazi (Sauron) threat was defeated but the Hobbits (Englishmen) returned to a land destroyed by rampant industrialisation perpetuated by Saruman (British politicians and business interests), the traitor in their midst. Even though they'd defeated this great evil, they would now be slaves to a brutal capitalistic society.
Unironically.
To complete the hobbits story arc
And to illustrate even the the places far from the front are permanently wounded by the war. Think of all the English men who never returned to their comfy villages
This is a deep rooted feeling and outlook born of personal strife, despair, betrayal, and loneliness. To feel alone is to know you are alone and know no one would raise their sword in your name. Just look at his face in this scene.
>apolitical and just want to be left alone >one side are such massive assholes you feel you have no choice but to join their opponent out of spite
Many such cases
We don't know.
We're trees.

He is not a tree, trees are like his retarded cousins.
If trees are to them like apes are to us, who are the naggers of ents?
I guess those evil trees that fucked with Hobbits.
Post trees
Nothing like a good forest

The coward’s approach to social integration
Seems to work well for the selfish and manipulative. It gets them further than self sacrifice ever got me
>integrating socially
you fell for the world's biggest meme

It's not something that exists.
That's what a coping bad person would say.
Post the bruises all over your body and then get back to me. You're just trying to fight again. It's all anyone does
you can't just discard the entire population of humanity because you were dealt a bad hand. you know people here would help you if they could, but we're just posters on Cinemaphile.
You're a whiny homosexual and the common denominator in all the pain you've experienced in life is you.
what happened? nobody showed up to your 16th birthday party?
It's ok friend, we are the sum of our experiences. I'm happy if life has been kind to you.
life isn't kind to anyone, kid.
>we are the sum of our experiences.
no, we are the sum of HOW WE DEAL WITH experiences.

here we go guys, Einstein has cracked the code. God's gift to humanity has arrived on scene.
>you don't
Completely baseless supposition
How horrible. Maybe you should kys.
Chud moment
Triggered the npcs you did.

>I am not a tree

Uhh...
Right, his beard is a tree.
We've got humans named Manfred and Hubert.
Checks out.
I want some of that water that makes merry and pimpin taller in that scene they cut. Just 4 inches worth. My as well inject it into my cock as well.
Drink it lying down
>Gandalf the Grey can solo a Balrog
>Saruman the White can't even deal with a few angry trees
Gandalf died fighting that balrog
He was just resting to apply his level up.
People headcanon that Saruman spent all his mana making that giant uruk army. I mean, they did somehow get 10,000 of them in less than a year
Head cannon means nothing
My head is smarter than yours. And its canon means far more.
I guess he couldn't handle the Angry Orchard. Always seemed more like a stout man.

Post more illustrations like this.

Thanks friend I love that picture.
He couldn't even handle the shire
Se scire
This is neat
Such an elegant creature
Whimsical!! Oh such whimsy!
How did Treebeard roar and a bajillion Ents showed up immediately? Shouldn't most of them be dozens or hundreds of miles away and they're slow?
It took at least a few days for them in the book to start going to Isengard.
Peter Jackson took a lot of bullshit liberties with the Two Towers
Not as bad as the Hobbit trilogy but still
do you want to sit there for hours watching treebeard and the hobbits wait for all the ents to show up? besides treebeard had recently called a moot so they should all have still been in around the same area at the time.
In the book the ents travel very fast, due to having such long legs. Makes sense.
>dude if you utilize the environment for your own industrial use, then le trees will be angry and come to life and fight you!!!
Tolkien was honestly a numale of his generation

>watches his entire generation cut down by newly industrialized warfare

The hobbits had technology but not industry
The were Tolkien’s ideal man. Live in a comfy agricultural community with an urge to wander and explore god’s beauty
>Trees
>Eagles

Wow a lot of convenient plot devices
You forgot God tripping gollum into the volcano
Destroyed by army of Morgoth
I'd like to see or read that
The Fall of Gondolin, is part of The Silmarillion iirc

All this time I was a fucking tree and didnt know it
So, how do we maximize our tree output? Should we move to the woods? Maybe become forest rangers?

They should have joined with Sauron because he took the entwives.
This is a deep rooted feeling and outlook born of personal strife, despair, betrayal, and loneliness. To feel alone is to know you are alone and know no one would raise their sword in your name. Just look at his face in this scene.
That's because he's a tree. All he does is stand around all day.
Put yourself in the trees shoes
>To feel alone is to know you are alone and know no one would raise their sword in your name
I know, it's hell. This world is hell.
Trees don't wear shoes.
When will you retards realize that ents aren't trees but semi-human beings that spent so many centuries taking care of the forests
