Ultimately, I believe in respect though. I'm an annoying hippie
humanist type. I actually believe in human decency, basic
civility, a "try not to be too much of an asshole please" as a
general life-rule. Would I enforce it though? No. Would I be the
annoying flower-in-the-mouth dress wearing creepy dude who
hasn't bathed in 2 years who is excessively close talking
saying, "Come ON guys, why can't we all just get along here? Now
everybody: GROUP HUGGGGGGGG!"? Yup I would. Born of different
parents, raised on a commune, Sure, I could be 'that guy'. But
nope. Raised in NJ. It was better for me. = I went to a hippie
college - hampshire college - the ultimate hippie college. Had I
finished, I'd have moved to Oregon and worked on a several
failed windmill projects and made overdramatized documentaries
about the plight of the rare triple gendered accidental
transhuman whose parents decided to mess around with circuitry
early on and how they're the victims of our technology obsessed
culture or something. I'm probably the closest thing to an
almost-true-hippie you'll ever be friends with. I should be shot
on sight. But I resist the tendencies. I know socialism is bad
for me and is unsustainable in the long term. I know war is
purposeful as much of a peace-nik that I want to be. All
stereotypes laid on, I should be pro-gun control or even
anti-gun but I know it's part of the american tradition and
background checks are a joke and it'll never work for the whole
country in a second. I'm just nice to ppl with guns. It's easy.
So, I'm a walking contradiction. Name it, I'm a contradiction. I
should have a vagina too but somehow I'm all male. Nature
screwed me up there. == Eh, I'm white. I'm male. They can form
all those groups. Does it affect me? Nope. I'm white. I'm male.
But, you can start groups too. I'm cool w/that. They wanna say I
have privledge? They can. You wanna say I don't? You can. I
don't have to worry about it really. I have glasses. I'm tall. I
use big words. With some anti-anxiety medicine and some speech
lessons, I could get on a stage and be a politician or join a
chamber of commerce or a freemason group and make business
connections with ease. Walls? Eh, none. Honestly, I'm glad for
it. Getting out of speeding tickets? Just make buddies with
someone on the force. Problem solved.* ==
