It's not intellectual success I expect, it's when I look at violation of women's rights in the Arab monarchies, the war on reproductive rights championed by the human filth on the right, the bigoted Santorums and David Bahatis of the world, the backward human anachronisms in the Vatican, the bigoted Evangelical blowhards with their bullshit, the Islamist pricks of the Muslim Brotherhood, the ******* hasidic Jews in Israel, my own goddamn parents and the sheer level of their ignorance and bigotry. Human filth, carbon and nitrogen collections of shit. I look at these people, and I realize that I hate them. The sheer amount of unnecessary suffering brought about by ignorance and the self important assholes claiming to know the one and only truth. I hate them, I hate all of them.To look at what could be, what ****ing ought to be, and to know it will never happen. That's agony.
And so I've come to realize the world is shit, humans are shit, and that those cheerful idealists are the luckiest ****ers on the planet.
Yes yes, the whole "I hate the sun, religion is allegedly ass backwards a secularism can only bring piece and happiness to the world" routine. I had that routine... When I was at 18..
It also occurred to me that for all the bitching you do about so called stupid, ignorant people, you now fall into that category because you don't know the meaning of certain words. Let's go with "bigotry" and "ignorance", because you're using them as you define them, which is based on your gospel (religion is bullshit). Had you been using those words in a universal sense and not used the extreme form of the monotheistic religions as the basis for your argument (once again, religion sucks!), people might take you a little more seriously, instead of thinking you complain too much about nothing and are generally a depressing human being with an inflated self worth (ironic since you criticize self importance).
