Filthy bastards = corporate media
The issue of imitation is too broad so one must narrow it down. I think I know where U.G is standing on this point. He is talking about how capable people on this earth are imitating other people with low value and morality. This does occur on the large scale and you hardly meet humble individuals out there anymore.

I agree with you that there can be individuality within the imitation.I guess it's a matter of perspective which part, the imitation or the individuality,you emphasize.Half full,or half empty?
Still,humans are born quasi "empty minded" (I know that's not completely true,but I assume that you understand what I mean).As they grow up,they "learn",and what more is learning than imitating?You might call it understanding,but that is just imitating the approach of someone who has already "understood"

If you dont carry the belief that you are here to imitate, you'll see that your body will automatically do its own thing, whatever it feels like doing. Really it's impossible to not be completely unique because even when we imitate, it's not the same or a duplication, it's our own version.
-
Humans are IMITATORS!!! We imitate nature, we imitate the language of our parents, we are nature's absolute master of imitation. So saying that it is wrong is saying that being human is wrong. Complete and absolute individuality is impossible.
So I humbly disagree.

UG is full of hate and resentment at this point
i love it

The threat of mutual extinction will save the human race.

Finally, someone who calls it as he sees it. "Imitation" is precisely what people do when listening to deceitful "enlightened" teachers. This is guy was not a philosopher. He's just telling you how it is.

All the shit.
that is you.

Those vids on my youtube profile DoBanality are simply soundtracks that somebody else made that I think sound cool. Thanks for checking in.
All philosophers are useless, and UG would never consider himself a philosopher. It is people like you that call him a philosopher, or a spiritual man, or even "anti-guru". All of it, every single word, is bullshit.

Say what you want, but this guy is unique ... I love the opening line "Why do you want to imitate some other bastard?"
