Day 35 SMast.
Day 21 Ultra Mot.
People are believing increasingly stupid and ill-conceived ideas about reality. One of these things won me twenty dollars; a work colleague could not believe that [Holy Book X] contained verses condoning [Y action], and said that if I could find one mention of it, he'd pay up.
I'm also seeing more and more people posting stupid shit on their Facebook wall; maybe my Facebook friends are becoming swept up by the notion of regressive leftism that's become all the rage. I don't mind Ultra-liberalism - that would be libertarianism in nature. But the combination of the left's goals and connections, combined with the right's indignation and fervor, topped off with hippie new-aged mysticism, and you have this loopy juggernaut that swings its broadsword of justice at anything that dares oppose the agenda.
I'm actually becoming angry about this collectivism that demands compliance and simply "knows" what's bests for every single person in its country. It also assumes that its enemies have similar moral codes and would show them compassion if the situation were reversed. They excuse their poor behavior by relegating it to "their culture" (you should know what I'm talking about without my violating Rule 4). This pathetic attempt of an excuse reveals to us that that which is inexcusable if done once by one person becomes morally just when done by millions of people over generations.
