Get ready for some mind boggling nonsense with no apparent meaning what so ever.
You have been warned.
I've just watched a movie called 'The Believer'. It was one of those movies that get to the core of your mind and don't let go for some time, sometimes changing perceptions, sometimes just stirring them a bit until a counter is found.
I seem to be fond of angst and misery. It gives me a lots of 'brain food' or thinking material, whatever you'd like to call it.
The movie, is basically about a very religious jew kid who stops believing in god and becomes a nazi in manhood.
I guess what touched me the most is that with a slightly different mindset, a different crowd of people around me, I might have become just like that (not necessarily a nazi, but quite racist), minus the aggression.
I'm a naturally passive person, I enjoy violence about as much as I enjoy stupidity, and that's not very much, actually, not at all (although, it always looks cool on TV, but I guess every thing looks cool on TV, that's the point of Television and Media now-a-days, to look cool and get loads of money).
What scares me is how religion can make every thing so twisted, I'm not at all against believing in god or gods, although I'm an atheist, I see no reason to impose my reality and ideals onto someone else, but humans tend to go to such extremes about their believes that it seems to belittle or religion or any other kind of belief, it pretty much makes humanity seem (and sometimes be) so cruel it's unbearable.
I'm afraid to think what would happen in the future when people can get angry just because someone is not wearing the right brand of clothes or eating the wrong dish in public.
It's actually happening now, in the present that is. People get mentally abused and sometimes worse because the don't do what's "in", all democracy and freedom of speech becomes a pile of steaming sh*t on the sidewalk while pure lack of acceptance becomes the main tool of trade for all that are less then completely open minded, and not many are.
Can that be changed? I hope so.
Simply put, society now-a-days sucks major balls.
I wonder why do people go to such extremes over personal opinions and ideals, persuading becomes forcing and forcing becomes anger, and then all hell breaks loose as the hating and violence begins. It seems wrong to me, but apparently, not to other people.
Is this supposed to happen? Or are humans just too idealistic for their own good?
All these questions make me feel too human. All the mistakes and apathy felt foreign but were so easy to embrace and make my own.
And now, I don't feel human. And every thing around me is riot. Hell upon earth and heavens gate seem to be on the other side of the darkness.
Metaphorically speaking.
Heh. Another load of bullshit I guess. Sorry. about that.
