Why Anti-Authoritarians are Diagnosed as Mentally... →
golgothagrizzly:
Some activists lament how few anti-authoritarians there appear to be in the United States. One reason could be that many natural anti-authoritarians are now psychopathologized and medicated before they achieve political consciousness of society’s most oppressive authorities.

It’s so wonderful when your queue pushes out things relevant to your argument right when you’re talking about them.
quietly-living-life asked: So basically, you're using the word "indoctrination" to mean "teaching anything that contradicts with my personal worldview." Tell me, what makes your worldview so superior to anyone else's?

Today in my political philosophy class the professor began with a bit of a thought experiment. She presented the following case to the class.
Imagine that you live within a neighborhood which has recently seen an increase in crime. Local authorities are never on time to prevent the crime, so a group of individuals within your neighborhood decide to take matters in...

I don’t know if this is true to you but for me sometimes it gets so bad that anything else say like looking at a bird on an overhead power line seems as great as a Beethoven symphony. then you forget it and you’re back again.

imaurel replied to your post:
They follow quite a few of the same rules, liberals and conservatives. I think this person misunderstood; you’re not Glen Beck, your points aren’t only aimed at the progressives.
I just don’t understand reading one post and then basing an argument or point off of it. It doesn’t take long to find out that I’m not at all conservative, especially since...

quietly-living-life asked: Why do you seem to think that colleges are indoctrination mills? The sheer fact that plenty of colleges hire conservative-leaning professors (I had quite a few of those, and I didn't go to a conservative college, either), along with the fact that there exist such things as conservative colleges (Brigham Young University and Liberty University come to mind) pretty much prove that point of...

now it’s computers and more computers and soon everybody will have one, 3-year-olds will have computers and everybody will know everything about everybody else long before they meet them and so they won’t want to meet them. nobody will want to meet anybody else ever again and everybody will be a recluse like I am now.

Anonymous asked: I currently have been reading up on your beliefs (I find them quite fascinating), and one thing that stuck me was this: You said that the only war that was justified was a war in self defense. Now there are many different theories on this. And unfortunately, none of us have time machines. I would like to postulate, however, that we tried this "let's stay out of it" thing once...

I just saw someone call Rick Santorum a terrible person for saying colleges are indoctrination mills.

They don’t make it
the beautiful die in flame-
suicide pills, rat poison, rope what-
ever…
they rip their arms off,
throw themselves out of windows,
they pull their eyes out of the sockets,
reject love
reject hate
reject, reject.
they don’t make it
the beautiful can’t endure,
they are butterflies
they are doves
they are sparrows,
they don’t make it.

the music has frozen in the air castrated by the absence of your presence.
