The Quill

It’s Easter, a quite fitting time for resurrections.

I wrote this article some years ago to explain why i didn’t publish as much anymore. I just didn’t feel like it.

Clearly i didn’t gauge properly how much i didn’t feel like it, because i changed my mind and promptly unpublished it.

Felt there was no point, no audience. To some extent still do.

But maybe there is, maybe just resurrecting it was its original purpose.

To show nothing has changed much lately on the net.

If anything what i wrote then still applies now to the virtual quagmire.

Bare some edits, we still live in a politically correct virtual asylum that needs pin pricking to irk it out of its complacent thickheaded torpor.

I’m naturally drawn to writing, it was always one of favorite means of expression and articulation in my mental belt and tool chain.

Few years back i reached a tipping point where i needed to take a break and reassess pretty much everything as i felt i was running the risk of being a  regular part of a retarded clown circus on the internet.

For me the entire concept of writing was to espouse and push towards critical thinking and penned artistry. To challenge and get challenged without resorting to personal feces flinging like monkeys. Anything else was and is just a misuse of the power of words for propaganda purposes and/or personal public ‘masturbational’ satisfaction through endless virtue signalling.

So many feel good delusional blog gods out there now who think that putting two words together makes them omnipotent. Proud as a 4 year old who can string 2 words together.. Cute when young but for an adult it’s laughable.

Blog only when you have something new and valuable to say, don’t recycle whatever trash is trending on social media for clickbait and to feel good about yourself.

I’m a classic liberal. For me individualism is the tenet of everything. Collectivism is cancer. That speaking alone does not make you intelligent.
It’s what you do with your words, and the moral and logical tenets that empower them that matters.
It is despicable to hide behind groups that ’empower’ you to repeat their flat slogans.
That is for the weak of mind and soul. If you are sane and healthy, you only need your own legs to keep you aligned and standing.

Take cracked.com for instance, i liked it when it launched and was inspired by its sarcasm it up until it got run over by social justice imbeciles who turned it away from sarcasm and  into regular sunday mass preaching sermons about imagined social issues.

What a change eh? What the hell happened.

True freedom of expression, funny wit and critical thinking are a holy trinity as adopted by  luminaries like Voltaire and Mark Twain who criticized social norms when those fell flat on the scale of logic & decency. But they didn’t try to push forward any social deconstructionism like parrots to re-engineer society while doing so either.

Cracked.com wasn’t the only one. The blog sphere has become as of late full of this lamented re-engineer misguided behavior.

Buzzfeed, Huffington Post, the late Gawker, Salon, Vox and all other  publishing outlets including smaller blog sites have all gone full retard in pushing forward many idiotic none critical but fully judgemental and feel good views of reality. A dummy’s echo chamber.

In the unicorn world of these regressive media, everything was fair game.

Every hobby or aspect of life was now ‘nag-able’, you’d be damned if you enjoyed breathing if you were male/white/whatever their next inter-sectional grievance is…

Virtue signalling was the new religion. Peer acceptance regained its nazi and socialist cult standing. Self flagellation and claiming higher victimhood status were the new rosary. Remember, nazis were ‘victims’ too when they started their campaign.. that was how they became popular. Same for Communists. Both killed millions.

While many stood up and resisted this, i personally felt and still do resigned and back-stabbed by a community whom i assumed were like minded liberals and progressives but who were proving themselves daily to be more religious, fascist and conservative in their world view than the farthest fringes of right wing followers. Pompous, insecure, unstable, jealous with questionable morals and ignorant, what could you not like about them.

So i had to admit, i was wrong, i had nothing in common with them.
Liberal and progressive/leftist have nothing to do with each other.
They have alot more in common with fanatical religions than liberalism.
It became hip now to be a narcissist nazi hipster.

It took me a while to get, but i finally got to terms with it and understood it.

In 2015, 2016, 2017 the truth in any issue no longer mattered. The gods of truth died out there. In true post modernist behavior what mattered became what you decided matter. Like a true fully grown adult with the brain of a 3 year old, many became spoiled and pampered kids that cant be appeased by anything. Our narcissism became the new cosmic center.

Offending someone was worse than throwing someone gay off a building (hush it’s their culture..).

Preachness defined the dawn of our new millennium. And safe spaces, from the ideas of others..

As narratives about every aspect of our lives were getting woven together blindly on these beautiful circle jerking media outlets lead by renowned man-lets or misandrists with a common agenda and ideology, some people like Sargon of Akkad, Christina Hoff Sommers & Jordan Peterson stood forward to resist this trend using articulated and critical stances. Many more others like myself mostly stood back, saw them being libeled as ‘right wing extremists’  and pondered if this wave of retardation was simply going to pass by if we simply ignored it like they portrayed in one south park episode..

They were right tho, it didn’t pass by it got worse. Without counter resistance this insanity would and is fully taking over the online narrative by taking over all the platforms and podiums.

Don’t get me wrong, i still don’t intend to headbutt every goat out there over these trivialities.

But i did learn to accept them, be less disgusted by them, and accept i have nothing in common with them. To just to counter and ignore them while focusing on what actually matters, actually getting things done.

They make a fuss out of everything true, they talk the talk but never walk the walk, so in the long run, they don’t matter. Their behavior is unsustainable and their world view is schizophrenic.

If you thought Neo Tokyo from Akira anime was weird and unstable, in 2017 just open Facebook.
