Fat, Drunk, and Stupid

I have to admit that the question of whether or not what I was writing was "politically sensitive" did not enter my mind. 

As regards blacks, I thought about that, but since the percentage of blacks in the USA has remained constant, or slightly decreased, I am not sure that they effect the overall score. 

And here I thought college campuses were a place for learning. I was thinking about this today, perhaps in a bit of a depressed mood: I didn't navigate high school and teen life very well, to put it mildly. But I have no idea how kids today can possibly navigate the loony bin that they and their parents and officials have created.

Getting drunk therefore doesn't seem like that bad of an idea. But, seriously, this just goes to show two things about the human animal:

1) They are very impressionable
2) I forget the other. Pass me another beer.

But, seriously, this goes to show how much feminism aims to turn women into men. Thou shalt even adopt the vices of that hated gender...and do them one better. I would be amazed at the lack of seriously in this culture if Mr. Flu hadn't beaten me to it first.

Not having a hand-phone, this is something I cannot understand. In fact, when I did have a hand-phone, I didn't check it unless it rang or I was expecting an important email. I have never texted. I hate the things.  And I had cell-phones back in the mid-1980s. That Nokia which Neo and Morpheus use in "The Matrix," I had one in Singapore and it cost over US$1,000 in the mid-to-late 1990s. It wasn't smart and the slide was actually a pain, but it was closer to holding a phone receiver than the other cell-phones I had used before. 

What the Hippies Have to Teach Us

I'd certainly like Mr. Flu or Herr Artler to read this in order to get their opinion. I tried to read this with an open mind. And I think a better social commentator (such as myself) might have summed it up thus: Termites can indeed sometimes gnaw pretty patterns in the wood.

I won't give away the rest, of what seems to be a glorification of the culture that embraced Communism and rejected America. My opinion is that the hippie generation was (aside from slavery and the income tax) the worst pox ever inflicted on this nation.

But like I said, I don't want to give away too much about what I think about this moronic piece. I'd like someone else to read it with an open mind. I could be too much of a curmudgeon in my regard for the Flower Children, the first cousins of those showerless beings we see sleeping on the sidewalk and defecating in the streets today. But don't let my opinion sway you. I could be over-reacting.

Here is one paragraph from the piece. 
I think it necessary for me give you an honest edit of that. It is a good example of the deceit which has long been a part of our society.  It is what is called, "the dishonesty of words." Advertising execs, the left and some writers are good at it. 

The use of drugs without the imprimatur of the pharmaceutical manufacturers. Translated. The use of unnecessary drugs without having any idea of their origin or safety. If Big Pharma had produced them we would also have used those. The Big Pharma spiel is just a Red Herring. 

Food directly from the earth. Translated. Food directly from the earth if one could get it, especially weed, but non-organic would do in a pinch. In any case, it makes us sound special. 

Clothing of individual design and made to purpose. Translated. "We want to demonstrate that we are special. Our outward appearance is very important to us, as it demonstrably differentiates us from the herd, so we go out of our way to make clothes which draw attention to ourselves." By the way,  home-made clothes was nothing special at the time. Many people made their own clothes in those days. My mother made lots of dresses and blouses for my sisters. 

Love without the trappings of law. Translated "sex without commitment."

Sex without ownership. Translated "promiscuity." 

Families unfettered by traditional limits. Translated, "parents without responsibility, poor children uncared for and left to their own devices."

Toleration and peace to all. Translated, "Heh, that's your problem, not mine." 

Do your own thing and let your neighbor do his. Translated, "I don't give a shit what you think or how my actions impact your life. You are an idiot so fuck off." 

Again, the man who wrote this piece is either a liar of idiot. That the American Conservative would publish such drivel is amazing. 

I came up with my saying "Never have so many tried to be different by being alike" during the hippie period.  Many idiot Americans were spewing the mantra that this author repeats about being different, but they are tried to be different by being alike. They changed their outward appearance and feigned changes such are organic food etc, but they were simply trying to be fashionable. Phonies of deluded. Internal change, real change, was nowhere to be found. 

I know because I was different. I didn't need to look and dress like a freak to understand this and disagree with much of contemporary America at the time, even more today.  As one of my two oldest friends told me a year or so back, "Fu you just thought differently from the rest of us."  

Oh, goodness. I forgot about that one "free love" paragraph. One could do a whole treatise on it….the nuttiness and destructiveness of the "make love, not war" generation written in a paragraph.

And no doubt about it. Good call. "Organic" or "out of the earth" means home-grown marijuana. If there was time for some of the women there in a commune (there are always a few who did the real work) to actually plant some real food, I wouldn't doubt it.



Yes, good analysis. And in another synergistic moment, we must acknowledge that these uninhibited, rule-breaking, freer-thinkers grew up and gave us slogans such as "Think Different," "No Fear," or "Just do it" which amounted to doing your own thing so long as everyone else was doing the same thing too. Never have we produced such better conforming robots than with the fruits of the hippie generation. And a lot of fruits as well, mind you.



It's likely the writer is either a moral degenerate or his parents were and he's trying as hard as he can to see a warm glow through those soda-bottle-thick rose-tinted glasses. No one writing in a conservative journal could seriously believe any of that unless they were a bit bent in some way.



Yep.



What's most interesting to me is that this generation took the essence of America and corrupted it. If you said to a farmer or craftsman back in 1790 New England that "you do your own thing and let your neighbor do his," he would have been fine with that. It's called freedom. We fought the damn British so that we could be left alone.

But if you could then whisper into his ear a translation of what the hippies really meant by that, he'd go ballistic. No, he would not agree that it was virtuous for lazy, drug-addled people to mooch off of others with no sense of responsibility for their own lives or that of others even if this lifestyle was self-servingly labeled as idyllic.



American Greatness, in this case. But same difference. And why choose? "Idiot and liar" works for me.



Yes, exactly. And this isn't just thinking that has been cleverly crafted for internet consumption because it sounds good. We've run that experiment. The KFF lockdowns (and all the egregious and arbitrary diktats) are stark and clear evidence of what that generation produced. And they did not produce the impulse for "live and let live" or "live free or die." They produced conformity and authoritarianism and a safety-ism hysterical impuulse.

If forget the exact quote (from Adams, I believe). But it went something like: "Those who can't control their own impulses will see government step in to control them instead." Could have been Madison or Washington as well. And that is exactly what has happened.



That's still technically legal, but just barely.

Even then --- experiencing the 60's as an eight-year-old --- although I didn't really understand it, it seemed like Goofballdom. I understand now just how vapid, trivial, self-indulgent, narcissistic, egomaniacal, and destructive that was.

Look back at the one jackass quote form the A.I. bot (who I certainly will not hold to a higher standard than your typical libtard...at least the bot is not human).



There is no way that a political ideology that keeps Lowe's open while the mom-and-pop stores must remain shuttered are for "equality." I've said before, and I will say again, all of this rhetoric is complete nonsense, meant only to fool the gullible (and there are lots of those, particularly the women voters).

And we should without flinching finally understand that "social justice" is anti-white bigotry whose flip side is excusing all the social ills coming from "people of color." I recognized the deceit of that term twenty years ago when some of my idiot Christian and Catholic friends used the term glowingly. Well, look at where we are now. I told you so, stupid.

As for "civil liberties," tell that to the store owners whose businesses were ransacked or otherwise closed down by all the "right" looters (BLM, Antifa, etc). Civil liberties for me, but not for thee. This is still the case where the squatters euphemistically known as "the homeless" are disrupting private businesses as their "civil liberties" go ignored.

There isn't a wall long enough to line them all up against to shoot for this nonsense. And I mean shoot them up with heroin and roll them in the gutter with their ideology.

I rewrote some of the above and replied to this dingaling:
