About Me:
 
I am an american activist. I am NOT a protester currently but would be more than happy to be drafted into movement after you see my views. I am 23. in 1999 I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome at the tender age of 13. A diagnosis which the pyscyhatric community has been resistent about dropping but has felt perfectly comfortable shifting from ADHD at age 3 to Aspergers at 12/13. To Bipolar at 23. I have strong doubts ANY of these conditions truly affect me. as for aspergers? I'm overwhelmed by empathy. As for ADHD I haven't been hyperactive sense I was 18 and as for bipolar... Well I've been unmedicated for awhile now and No psychotic episode.

As a person and an individual it is my perspective that our culture has an underlying sickness in it that has caused many to try to fill a hole in their lives in a way that it can never actually be filled.

thru the vices of consumption, excessive sex, drug use, violence, etc we have become convinced that the only way to find happiness is thru money and oppression and yet at the root of the violence of all individuals I have ever encountered is a crying out for a concept very little speak to.

a desire for real love.

What is real love?

I'm NOT a worker, I'm NOT an individual campaigning on behalf of the video set being promoted here, I choose individualistically to promote it BECAUSE it reflects my view. I know that's hard to believe but I can prove it, if you need screen shots of my bank accounts or anything-these people are not paying me anything.

I've been told over and over and and over again "it's time to get a job paul. It's time to go out and take care of yourself, don't worry about other people" the fundamental fallacy at work in such a response is to pretend that I can any longer be made happy by increasing the vaults of my possesions. I already see this sickness for what it is. insanity.

This hole can only be plugged one way. Happiness begins from WITHIN. Not by way of posessions.

Dr. Peters: I think, Dr. Railly, you have given your "alarmists" a bad name. Surely there is very real and very convincing data that the planet cannot survive the excesses of the human race: proliferation of atomic devices, uncontrolled breeding habits, the rape of the environment, the pollution of land, sea, and air. In this context, isn't it obvious that "Chicken Little" represents the sane vision and that Homo Sapiens' motto, "Let's go shopping!" is the cry of the true lunatic?

I have opposed, and continually opposed the presidency of george w bush, even during the HEIGHT of his presidency. IN 2001. all I could think was "oh great. A jock is in office. You know what that means. Shoot first and ask questions later. He'll make NO Effort to understand the culture of the people he invades and the WHOLE of that country will turn against us!" I truly believe I have a history of dissent even when it's unpopular.


Asch's conformity experiment showed that the presence of a single dissenter tremendously reduced the incidence of "conforming" wrong answers. Individualism is easy, experiment shows, when you have company in your defiance. Every other subject in the room, except one, says that black is white. You become the second person to say that black is black. And it feels glorious: the two of you, lonely and defiant rebels, against the world! (Followup interviews showed that subjects in the one-dissenter condition expressed strong feelings of camaraderie with the dissenter - though, of course, they didn't think the presence of the dissenter had influenced their own nonconformity.)

But you can only join the rebellion, after someone, somewhere, becomes the first to rebel. Someone has to say that black is black after hearing everyone else, one after the other, say that black is white. And that - experiment shows - is a lot harder.

Lonely dissent doesn't feel like going to school dressed in black. It feels like going to school wearing a clown suit.

That's the difference between joining the rebellion and leaving the pack.

*left the pack*

oh for the record I hate judgement on the basis of:

clothing
appearance
gender
sexuality
in fact pretty much anything outside of "personality' is going to piss me off.

Hello!
thingtoocoolforyou (1 month ago)
Yeah, I get that exact same problem. I made a video on the subject myself. My boyfriend and I go halvsies unless we've agreed otherwise, like if one of us is short on money or wants to treat the other. That kind of thing. It bothers me that some women do that, because it means that no one will take us seriously. Well, even less than they already do...

hey paul. just read your "boundary issues" blurb. what can i say? i feel you bro. the point where we as "individuals" (what a misnomer!) realise that in truth there are no distinctions, or even definitions that are ultimately real & that everyone & thing is inextricably interconnected is a difficult one to progress through [as it does pull down all the boundaries between us as "humans", yet also as manifestations that are inseparable from all others (animals, plants, planets, comets, molecules, ideas, emotions):] as everything becomes more real, more intensely felt... & sometimes beyond words. well thats part of my take on it & idk if i really got out what i was trying to. if you ever want to talk or share anything just send me a message. i hope that wasnt pretentious or patronizing. all the best brother.
