Suck it up

Alchemical Braindamage:
"I mean, how pitiful is it that almost nobody can just kind of sit with the feeling of being an autonomous authority? We all go through a phase of thinking we're the center of the universe, but rather than integrate it into a healthy psyche, while acknowledging the limitations of that view in functional terms, we instead are taught to recoil in horror at anyone who dares to ignore the consensus and social norms.

And all you so called 'non-conformists' can shut the fuck up right now. I can see you acting all smug about how liberal/anarchist/discordian and 'deprogrammed' you are, but chances are all you do is bounce off the programming other people have in utterly predictable fashion. You're perfectly willing to be hateful, narrow minded, exclusionary and prejudicial in your own ways, as long you get enough support from your peer group. Let me give you a hint: if you say you're 'against' anything, or you define your life in terms of changing something about the world around you, you're as robotic as the next idiot, so sit down and shut up. The door is always there if you're feeling the need to assert yourself a little bit.

But anyway. Regardless of your background, it's pretty likely the idea of being a law unto yourself is going to call forth stereotypical images of moralistic horror, like seeing yourself smeared in feces, sodomising homeless children over the kitchen table, whilst reading passages out of Mein Kampf.

...If you really need to know what the intent behind my last rant was, then here ya go...
- to give you an particularly vigorous and confrontational variation on the banishing ritual.
- for those of you sufficiently able to roll with that, you may have caught a glimpse of an unconditioned and autonomous sense of will.
- for those of you who didn't, that perhaps gives you a nice look at how neurotic and inhibited you are. It's really hard to do all that stuff you're talking about, someone will actually dislike me, or fight against me ...

Yeah whatever man. When you look at all the major achievements in history, it's quite clear the hardest part in any of them was being willing to imagine and act on it. Suck it up.
