and absorb this:
So a trend whore 'friend' of mine has decided to try to get a job at Hot Topic. He says it's because "You can listen to music all day."
He clearly has no morals.
He pretends to be bisexual, and tries way too hard to impress everybody.
He's just an overall douche-bag.
So that got me thinking more clearly about who I consider a 'good' person.
People who are nice to me?
or people who are actually good?
So I was thinking this, as I walk into my Theater class, which is full of more or less my only friends.
I sit down, and everybody starts verbally harassing some kid, and he just kind of took it. He probably has ADHD or something, but he's somewhat hyperactive, so everybody's saying "OH SETTLE DOWN, UNEXPRESSED THOUGHT [which is a saying everybody uses to enforce collective authority on people who express themselves] GOD"
So I was sitting there, totally silent, and awed by my realization of how bad everybody I know is.
I hadn't realized who fucking sick these people are.
It's exactly how I put it before, collective authority. If most people agree, it happens, whether we like it or not.
But I guess this is a good thing, I've gone from my more depressive self loathing rut, to a period of time that I'll probably be incredibly angsty towards anyone, and everyone. Just like it was at the end of the year, last school year. That's a good thing, by the way, I've been feeling unnatural ever since the last week of school last year. I've been socializing, I'm glad that I can finally tell somebody to go fuck themselves, and actually mean it.
I'm being more apathetic, although does it count if you're aware of it? I'm not claiming I'm the most apathetic person in the world, by the way, but I don't really see the point of having constant hygiene, and wearing uncomfortable clothes, or getting expensive clothes that you can get 90% cheaper at a store that isn't directly associated with the rise of corporatism in America.
I'm also thinking of making new shirts for myself (with a blank white t-shirt, and a sharpie.)
What should I write?
I'm thinking of just writing " YOU " on it, just to see how people interpret it.

i truly agree to what you say, people always try to oppress those with a free spirit, such as me. i always say out loud what i think, even if it's truly the most stupid thing to say in that situation. im a free-spirited guy and i always get oppressed.
It's just like when china invaded tibet. people are just unsure and seek a "horde". im not seeking such a thing. thats just stupid. anyways, capitalism ruins todays society its true. but the economy has grown too dependant to it. we cant do shit about it anymore. the time we could have was in the 1930's. you know what im talking about right?

I agree, Capitalism is a corrupt system. It was only meant to be a replacement for feudalism, but economic systems with social classes are always corrupt.
With Capitalism, comes Corporatism, (Because the people have no choice but to invest in corporations, in the hope of having more money, and the corporations get power) and with all monetary sytems, corruption always is close behind, so the rich corporations have their hands in the government, so that both parties are working for the best interests for the corporations, rather than the people.
So here come the 'Reagan-ists', where the only point is to get rid of the government. That sounds good, but what Reagan wanted, was the government to be as little as possible, so the corporations have all of the power.
I say, get rid of corporate control, and government control.
That's why Anarchy and Capitalism can't go hand in hand, because Capitalism is still a corrupt authoritarian system.
I should stop going on tangents.
