If one supposed the central theme of the novel to be Amor Fati or a variation thereof, it would then follow that the primary conflict of the narrative is not between Stevens and Mrs Benn, but rather between Stevens and Graham; that the nature of the conflict, not social but moral: the question of the specificity of virtue.

The question of greatness and of what constitues it is often on Stevens' mind throughout the novel, but he only examines it from his narrow perspective. Given his suffocating overspecialisation, he is unable to generalise, but nevertheless insists that the nature of it be with dignity. This he extends to the English nobility, but no futher. But because of the presence of Graham in the narrative, Stevens' conception of it can be further defined by seeing what it is not: it is not a lofty, abstract general quality around an individual that Graham intuits, that would by the nature of its intangibility translate to a variety of human pursuits; just like Stevens, it is extremely narrowly defined, restricted like he, waiting in spite of his father's death.

The means by which this conception of virtue is extended to both Lords and Butlers is their proximity to the metaphorical pivot of the world; here the imagery is markedly karmaesque, as is the refinement of the singlemindedness that Stevens strives for; his birth into a family of servants intent on practicing the same obscure virtue that he does. By extending this cosmology, one easily arrives a profoundly mechanical world where every human-piece has to fall into the hierarchy of the machine: value is derived from one's involvement in the functioning of the whole mechanism. In such a world, generalised virtue is impossible: a cog is not an axis, is not a counterweight. They cannot become each other, neither can they be in a position to judge. And accordingly, Stevens does not judge, neither Lord Darlington nor Mr Farraday; but by implication, he hints by both words and actions at a conviction that central pieces of the machine, such as his lord, and by extension himself, cannot deviate from their courses. And while Stevens does resent somewhat his past history with Mrs Benn, he is unable to do the same for his lord, whose endeavours almost tipped the world towards destruction at Nazi hands - to do so would be a violation of his variation of Amor Fati.

I bought a "korma in a jar" a few weeks ago, and enjoyed it quite a bit. Some of those store-bought curries ask for additional ingredients to be added, like yogurt, but this one didn't. Thankfully I used a bit of cream anyways, which I could tell it needed. I think next time I'm going to use a cup of coconut milk though, since the korma is coconut flavored. It will be my first time using coconut milk, I hope it goes well.

I don't really even write, but once as I was walking home through the woods after sundown, I thought of some incredibly dark passages. They just occurred to me, and I narrated them with my inner voice. It's difficult to describe what they were like, but I've never read anything like it. Some kind of demonic metaphysical horror(I just tried to think of words to describe it but gave up). I was disturbed and fascinated by it at once. I was somewhat afraid of even writing it down, decided against it and forgot it all soon afterwards. Kind of regret it now.
I guess that didn't make very much sense. Whatever. If I had written that down and someone had read it, they would probably think I'm completely fucked in the head.

Also I'm upset with the shape of my body and the size of my penis and I occasionally fantasize about running away to Alaska or the Caribbean or Europe without telling my wife. Also very worried that I'm a brainlet with nothing to contribute.

It's not easy to make money from self-publishing, I've made a bit but not much, however my ghostwriting has been going great. Looks like I won't have much trouble making $1000+ in the year of 2018. Something tells me that 2019 will make me substantially more. Keep writing, keep improving, keep getting reviews and making a name for myself, and it's inevitable that income will continue to increase as well provided the economy remains as it is or, ideally, improves even more. Such is the capitalist system, and I am so thankful to live in a capitalist western society.

I'm intending to make a fantasy with original races and I want your input on it.
There's a pantheon of Gods who'll create races for the purpose of doing a function within the world though they can't fully control their wills to bend in such ways. All they can hope for is that their race would naturally go for what they'll hope for them.
Humanity, for example, was made to be war-like brutes whose job was to make sure that there wasn't too much life, Apex predators, made by the resident goddess of violence and love. Yet humanity was able to rise above their primal nature and construct empires that'll span for thousands of years because the goddess made them too ambitious. In a way they still do what they were they were intended to do. The goddess, though disappointed still realize that this is still a pretty good deal.
My ideas are a race of plant traps.
These flower boys were made to act as this world's natural farmers. They're responsible for planting and regulating vegetation. They have an innate knowledge of these fields and their mere presence is enough to help plants grow and develop. Beasts and diseases avoid hunting them because they know that deep down that killing them would just upset the natural order of things. As such, they're free of worry. They'll lie about making poetry and music from their flutes made from fallen sticks and sleep under giant leaves or trees that are naturally empty inside. Their societies are communal tribes and whenever there are more members than their area is able to sustain, they'll send out their oldest members and pack them with vital sends. They're an old race and could be found around the world. Their clothing varies in different regions obviously. I more tropical ones they'll place a leave on their member whereas in colder regions they'll don coats and robes made out of plant matter.

I used to drink basically daily. For 3 years, 340 days a year bare minimum, so needless to say I've been utterly plastered over 1000 times in my life and I'm not even 30 yet. Usually straight liquor, 40% or higher, only drank beer when I went to pubs pretty much. I wouldn't say I was physically dependent, in fact after those 3 years circumstances happened that lead to me having to be sober for about a full week, it really wasn't bad at all. In fact I even had a flask of vodka, under normal circumstances that 350ml or whatever it was of 40% liquor wouldn't be enough to get me proper drunk unless maybe I chugged it all down at once. I had a flight to catch, I threw it out because I didn't want to awkwardly get caught with it in which case I'd have to throw it out anyways. It wasn't even hard, the hardest part was finding a discrete enough place in which to throw it out.

I guess dependency differs from person to person, however strangely enough in the months later and as stress seemed to mount, I craved booze more often. Thankfully I haven't gone back to 'every single day', now it's just every 3-4 days typically. Well, that's how it was in November and most of December until the holidays. Got absolutely loaded 5 times in 9 days if memory serves, SERIOUSLY loaded. It was great, but damn was it hard to cut down again in early January. I'm getting the hang of it again now though, and I think in February I'll be back on track. Every 3-4 days is perfectly acceptable to me, only 2-3 times a week basically which is practically normal for a young man. A couple times I was even sober from Monday to Thursday, drinking on Sunday and Friday. That felt good, I felt quite accomplished and also it saved some money, but it's not often I manage that. Meh, as long as I make it to my 60s I think I'll be content.

Reaching 70 would be pretty cool but I'm not willing to make any drastic changes to my life to try and reach it. Maybe when I'm in my 50s I'll think more long-term, but just the fact that in my 20s I'm moderating my drinking for the sake of longevity is a pretty good sign I think. If I just wanted to save money, if it had nothing to do with my health, then I'd go back to drinking daily but start drinking mouthwash more. I got drunk off that once, it was harsh but not too bad. I hear you can also get drunk from vanilla extract. Just for shits and giggles I might try that sometime, as an experiment. I'd do some research on the matter first though. It's food-grade so I assume it would be healthier than bloody listerine.

When you're that level of a boozehead already it's easy to escalate fast once some really bad things start happening in your life. Don't expect to be stuck at getting drunk a few times a week, that's still honeymoon phase.

Also, you're severely underestimating the almost constant pain and terror being a real drunk is once you do descend to that level. You no longer think pragmatically about hypothetical lifespans, at that point the reason to get sober is the torture of everyday life.

You sound like the exact type of drinker that's headed for true bottle slavery at some point desu.

You could be right, only time will tell. For now I'll continue to enjoy alcohol, do my best to keep it within moderation at a roughly biweekly basis rather than on a daily basis and hope for the best I guess. Seriously though, I've been homeless, I've been to court before for a non-alcohol-related issue, I've had a pretty bad breakup before, periods of suicidal thoughts and attempts many years ago before I really started drinking, I've had thousands of dollars of stuff stolen from me, almost died on at least two occasions, had possessions that meant a lot to me taken away, there's someone out there that might be my kid but I don't know for sure and the mother never approached me about it so it probably isn't but again I'm not sure, and even right now I'm not exactly at the best point in my life.

In the end, even with all that crap in my relatively recent history, it doesn't matter. I don't drink because of all that, to forget it or to numb some sort of 'pain'. I drink because it feels awesome and I find it to be incredibly fun. Could it spiral out of control? Yes, alcohol is very dangerous, but in spite of all the BS I remain pretty optimistic which I think is pretty amazing. Take that however you like, it too doesn't matter, but if I was going to descend into utter and complete alcoholism, throwing myself at it with reckless abandon, I think I'd have done so by now. If all THIS won't do it but something in my future WILL, well damn, it'd have to be pretty damn horrifying. Getting into an accident and becoming paralyzed? End up being mugged and almost dying from being shot or stabbed? Having to fight off an intruder in a B&E potentially resulting in killing him or nearly getting killed myself and having to live thinking that it could happen again at any moment? A relative committing suicide and mentioning me in the suicide note? We'll have to wait and see what happens.

Do you know what is slowly disappearing from the world that I found endlessly amusing?

The little stories found on the labels of Newman's Own food labels.

Totally ridiculous and charming,they were worth hunting down just to see what absurd product tie in they espoused. But since Paul Newman's death,the labels have been replaced with a simple memorial to his charitable work. A shame. When I have more time,I will transcribe a couple I took photos of off of the tomato sauce jars that still have these silly bits of fun.

and even worse, how do I know if their love is based off of an inaccurate image of who I am? I tend to be a bit reserved and I think sometimes when I reveal more of myself to people they get confused and scared off, but I don't want to build a relationship on a fiction of who I am

New interview of him on CBC, he talks about Pepe a bit. I think the interview was quite careful in speaking to him, and there were times that it felt like he was a cobra ready to strike if she made the wrong move. If leftists were Kryptonians, then he's a walking, talking chunk of kryptonite. They have no leg to stand on in the face of his truth, and besides his years of work in psychology and his extremely well articulate means of communicating, truth is really all he has. When he goes to an interview he doesn't know exactly what they'll bring up. They dug up an old photo of him with a Pepe flag, a photo that apparently took all of about 30 seconds to be taken according to him, and he even states how he needs to be careful and that he needs to try not to make any mistakes or say the wrong thing, because the left will dig up any possible thing to use against him. Trump is easily the most scrutinized individual in America, and I think Peterson may very well be the most scrutinized individual in Canada. Not so much for Trudeau. Mainstream media, besides Fox News, almost entirely hate Trump, but in Canada the mainstream media are literally soon to get a lot of money in the next budget. Not Rebel Media of course, I mean Trudeau won't even give money for Summer jobs unless you agree to stand against those who are pro-choice.

I could talk for hours about the nonsense of the left and the utter betrayal that is Trudeau, thank God I didn't vote for him but of course I DID vote in the last election in 2015. 2019 is the next election unless there's a vote of non-confidence, and either way, it can't come soon enough. He's doing lasting damage to this nation, to the freedom of expression for Canadians, and to the individuals who lead the nation which he's largely choosing on the basis of identity. Via Trudeau, identity politics are deciding who runs Canada. Via Trudeau, if by some Hellish miracle he gets a second term, I'm not sure if Canada will ever be able to come back. He's welcoming in ISIS fighters. People who literally fought against Canadian and American soldiers, even killed some in some cases, just welcoming them in when he's not too busy giving them $10,500,000 without permission from Parliament.

I got out of bed at 2:50 AM to get a drink and wake myself up to get started early on schoolwork. I've been crippled with an intense longing for something else lately. A lack of enthusiasm for the world around me. I spend more time imagining different opportunities than going after the ones in front of me. I am left with a semi-conscious awareness of the underlying childish pride holding it up and feigning ignorance to any actual helping action. While I'm pouring my drink I notice my roommate's computer was left on, iTunes is asking to restart for an update. I initially dismiss it as no importance, but a thought enters my mind telling me it could be the pull tab to the dormant container of something else, anything else. I restart the computer, telling myself I'd never know what it could happen if I didn't, but also knowing nothing would come out of it. I notice the clock in the room is about to hit 3 o'clock and chime. A symbolic connection, something of surreal hope. I stare at it, expecting something and nothing at the same time. The clock chimes. The computer restarts. My life does not.

I really wish I could articulate this thought.

Most of us never escape Dunbar's number. We are Dunbarians. the 99%rs There are roughly 150 other Dunbarians in our circle; 150 people who would recognize us in public and comfortably come over and say, 'hello.' There the 1%rs outside of this, and they are recognized by thousands or millions of people. But it's not just average joes and celebrities. It's a complex relationship between Dunbarians and Avatars. It's a bizarre trait that we have, but we are unaware of. The Dunbarians, us, sit alone with our measly 150. Granted, there are extremes, some who double, maybe triple their number, and some with, perhaps, only 10. But Dunbarians have a parasitic relationship with the high-number avatars. We latch on to them very much like a role-playing game. They are our heroes who venture into the darkness for us and live our secondary realities. We each have a number of Avatars, usually singly digits, though I suspect there could be correlation between our number of Avatars and our Dunbar number. These celebrities, these avatars, these people in the public eye aren't there because they are famous, they are famous because we need them. They exist because we created them, out of necessity, because we cannot navigate a tribe of 7.6 billion, so we latch on to our avatars to 'play' reality for us while we scurry about in the background, busy creating the game we play.

I'm only skirting the top of this thesis. There are hundreds of deeper aspects, layers, angles, orders of abstraction. Since we're here, just one would be /lit/ itself--these inter-collective Dunbars, who are neither avatars or individuals (I wish I had the space to explore how idiologies and concepts function) Each member of /lit/ has their small collection of avatars, yet we have our inter-collective avatars to navigate reality for us too. Currently, Jordan Peterson is one of our inter-collective avatars as he is a personal avatar for a lot of the posters on this board. Again, the relationship is not just a figure we are aware of or admire, the avatar really is more akin to somebody we inhabit to 'play' reality for us, whose eyes we see through and adopt the thoughts and perspectives of. Society is a collection of Dunbarians. The Nitschean Ubermensch is a failed idea, but our avatars are really our Gods, our highest values.

A young 16yo lad named Jamie may be starting to use as his value hosts for his reality structure Avatars like Bill Hicks, Christopher Hitchens, John Frusciante, Jordan Peterson, Charles Bukowski and a few others. His 9yo sister, just formulating her world view, may have Kylie Jenner and Demi Lovato. His father may still be using Lou Reed along with people more contemporary like Stephen Fry.

Again, Dunbarians don't respect, admire, wish or pretend they were their avatars, they literally need them to combine together for their entire value structure, worldview, and reality tunnels.

Either way, nicely said! I felt kinda the same way since I came on /lit/ and saw how many threads got dedicated to certain persons and the reductionism surrounding those figures.

ok, what you say is possibly true, but its not something you hear everyday, or really consider, or even if you do, to be confronted again with the profound possibility, yes what that person was describing was p zombies, a person who has no true self, but is only the amalgamation of other selves they see on tv, they becoming a quilt of perceptive inter-inner projections, conjections, it is startling to consider after forgetting about these thoughts for sometime, how so many people may be fake ghosts, and the person put it rather eloquently, I just didnt see the need for you to say anything negative to them, especially in a manner lacking of so discussion and critique of the potential actually interesting themes

Et tu marchais souriante
Épanouie ravie ruisselante
Sous la pluie
Rappelle-toi Barbara
Il pleuvait sans cesse sur Brest
Et je t'ai croisée rue de Siam
Tu souriais
Et moi je souriais de même
Rappelle-toi Barbara

Toi qui ne me connaissais pas
Rappelle-toi
Rappelle-toi quand même ce jour-là

Un homme sous un porche s'abritait
Et il a crié ton nom
Barbara
Et tu as couru vers lui sous la pluie
Ruisselante ravie épanouie
Et tu t'es jetée dans ses bras
Rappelle-toi cela Barbara
Et ne m'en veux pas si je te tutoie
Je dis tu à tous ceux que j'aime
Même si je ne les ai vus qu'une seule fois
Je dis tu à tous ceux qui s'aiment
Même si je ne les connais pas
Rappelle-toi Barbara

Cette pluie sage et heureuse
Sur ton visage heureux
Sur cette ville heureuse
Cette pluie sur la mer
Sur l'arsenal
Sur le bateau d'Ouessant
Oh Barbara
Quelle connerie la guerre
Qu'es-tu devenue maintenant
Sous cette pluie de fer
De feu d'acier de sang
Et celui qui te serrait dans ses bras
Amoureusement
Est-il mort disparu ou bien encore vivant
Oh Barbara
Il pleut sans cesse sur Brest
Comme il pleuvait avant
Mais ce n'est plus pareil et tout est abimé
C'est une pluie de deuil terrible et désolée
Ce n'est même plus l'orage
De fer d'acier de sang
Tout simplement des nuages
Qui crèvent comme des chiens
Des chiens qui disparaissent
Au fil de l'eau sur Brest
Et vont pourrir au loin
Au loin très loin de Brest
Dont il ne reste rien.

that's retired cunt syndrome. old men always talk about the past because they stopped having meaningful experiences after some point. that's why the past remains so vivid and important to them. they talk about who they used to be and what they used to do because they aren't much and not doing much at all now.

Why we are so messed up is something I think about a lot. We need a war to shake things up, but as the most valuable personal commodity going around is randomness, and unfortunately a war that can potentially touch the people who declare it open up the possability of too much randomness(they might die, and you know 'never start a battle that you haven't already won' and so on) So they sit on a button saying don't you dare or we will end it all, and if that doesn't work (the end of the world threat, because when you come to think of it all mainstream religions promote a better thing after death so why not end it all? And why the fuck are we here? The world already had a clean reboot with the dionsaurs, right?) we are convinced that there is something better if we just comply and keep quite. And any thought or words otherwise is going to hurt the children. Which leaves everything at a paradox again - constantly waiting for something better for children, which has been what people have always been waiting for. So in a time of the highest value of randomness people are the most conservative.

Just because he "settles" for someone who isnt perfect doesnt mean he cant love her.

I think a lot of antisocial people have trouble finding a gf because not only do they want a gf they also want a friend. Gets some more friends then get a gf.

He thought his talents were wasted on himself. He always considered himself a decent writer, but he never put anything to paper. Was it hubris that he felt so? Sheer laziness that he never wrote? Or was he worried about the opinion of others when they saw the scribbles he dared to call prose.

He realized he needed a new pronoun, or descriptor at least if he was going to continue writing like this. They? It? This wasn't a gender issue, just one of repetition. Maybe he should just give it up and stop inflicting his torturous sentences and contrived plots on others.

From today's meditation:
"Consciousness comes at no cost, quite the contrary, self-consciousness -the knowledge of the central experience as one this world, like the others- is in its true form the understandment [sic] that there is no secret to discover, no price to pay, no one to meet."

He gazed upon the image reflecting in the mirror.

“Now, repeat after me. ‘My name is George.’”

“My name is George,” he replied.

“Good.”

“What am I doing here?” George asked.

“I’ll explain later – right now, you just have to listen to me and do as I say. Got it?”

George nodded his head.

“Good. Now then, George, let me see if you remember it all. Feed it all back to me.”

“All of it?”

“Yes, George, all of it.”

He continued staring at the image, glaring into the eyes as they stared back into his.

“I am twenty six years old, born on July 6th, twenty thirty five. My father was an organ harvester in the delta quadrant of Perrsecc. I ran away from home at the age of fourteen – and have been alone ever since.” He paused. ”My name is George.”

“Good, George. Very good. Except you were born on July 5th, not the 6th. Let’s go again.”

“No,” he replied.

There was a pause.

“This is part of your training, George. Now let’s go again.”

“No. I refuse. None of it is true, not even my name. I’m not George. There never was a George to begin with.”

“Who are you then?” the voice asked.

“I – don’t know.”

“Exactly, George, you don’t know. That’s why it is important for us to teach you, again. This is part of your re-association therapy. It is of the most importance that you learn, and remember.”

George looked around the room.

“Please, George. I need you to stay fixed on your reflection.”

He turned back and looked into the mirror. The image seemed different. The eyes a different colour, the hair a different shade.

He gazed upon the image reflecting in the mirror.

Animation, videogames, film, literature, philosophy, religion, some psychology, some anthropology and sociology, a bunch of stuff, I'm just afraid I'm not too deep into any of them to actually give a worthwhile commentary. But then what I've always wanted wasn't to be an expert but to have a more or least holistic point of view of the world or at least the parts of it that interest me.

Depression. Never been to a doctor for it, but I know it runs in the family. Father's an alcoholic, his father was too. Reclusive mother. Suicidal cousins.

I've fucked up a lot of times too. I'm poorly adjusted, don't know how to gauge my limits. Tried a job that was above me, but got promotions anyway; didn't realize how horrible I was doing until I lost upwards of $100k for the company. Was lucky to just get the boot. Yes, I'm a piece of shit idiot.

I want something simple and that feels meaningful like writing for a business or column that I value or even working at a place like a retirement home, but I'm horrible at socializing. I'm afraid of people and I usually come across as unresponsive and despondent. At this point I don't even trust myself to work with others, I've lost all my friends over the years and have almost no connections outside my immediately family. I can't get over my past mistakes.

Don't beat yourself up about the job too much. It was their responsibility to make sure you had the knowledge to do what they were asking of you.
Other people have felt the way you have, and I don't mean that in a way that diminishes what you're going through, just to remind you that even in your alienation you are experiencing something that can connect you with others. Go to a doctor if at all possible. Meds are not a meme. I will say that if they diagnose you with depression and you don't have a heart condition try to get bupropion (Wellbutrin) as your first line antidepressant instead of an SSRI. The side effects are easier to handle.

Hope things start to look better for you soon, anon.

I recently went to write my first short story piece. I am a completely illiterate pleb that new pursued higher education, so it surprised me when I finished my first and second draft and saw that I had a moderately competent story on my hands.

However, it is plainly clear that I am not a very good writer. Before I move on, I'd like to get some reading under my belt. I've begun reading Edith Hamilton's Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes and I'm going to read through some other stuff before I move on. I'm surprised at my degree of reading comprehension and speed, as I am a complete plebeian and a retard.

It's a shame that people so hate Caucasians. We've developed most of the greatest technology on the planet by far, in fact everyone using this website or any other should be thankful of whites for developing such capacity of worldwide communication. It's ok to be white, and more than that, it's ok to be PROUD of being white, because white people and white history are pretty darn awesome.

I don't use Twitter, but anyways the problem extends beyond that. Remember the shitstorm that culminated from a few pieces of paper stating correctly that "It's ok to be white"? As predicted, mainstream media and quite a few College-goers made a stink about it, saying it's a racist statement. Such hypocrisy; if it had said "It's ok to be black", either it would have been supported and agreed with or on the flip side there would have been outrage because "is that suggesting that some think that it's NOT ok to be white?" which is hypocritical because it's defensively racist rather than offensively racist. You can't be racist against the BLACK group but you can go ahead and be racist against the WHITE group.

My old man is a spineless anti-gun leftist, he's certainly not in the Military. That was an example, however, of having pride in your heritage. IF I had such an impressive father figure, I'd be proud of him, it would make me feel good to have a connection with him. Similarly, I feel good to have a connection with Britain, a tiny bit with France, with the vast majority if not the entirety of my known geneology being white and from Europe. I take pride in this, and while yes white people have contributed more to the modern technology that make us so comfortable and make us live so long, that does not equate to "I am white thus better than all non-whites." What it means, is what I've said. "Whites are awesome at technology, I am white, it makes me proud to live in white western society where we can enjoy the product of thousands of years of advancements."

In terms of average IQ, it's found that Asians have the highest. This also explains why Asian Americans make more than Caucasian Americans in the United States because they take full advantage of the equal opportunity there, as they should. They work hard, they study hard, they don't listen to the leftist BS of "whites wanna keep minorities down", and thus they do even better than the white majority of the nation. Good for them! I hope to be an American someday and hope to have the opportunity to improve my position in life just like them. I also hope to pursue a career in writing so I guess that's where the "building after his legacy" comes in. Chances are I won't gain much notoriety, or in decades to come I could become a top 10 best-selling author. Sure, the left will largely see me as "just another white guy who got successful JUST for being white", and they'd be fully racist and ignorant in thinking such because it is NOT easy, but all the same it is something that I take pride in, knowing that I'm a good enough writer to make money from it. Not enough to live on, but I believe I will get there in time. I will get past 4-figures a year.

The only way in which I think my whiteness would help me to become a successful writer is, at best, the average IQ as seen between the races. Whites are fairly high on that list. Certainly not at the top, but pretty high.

Funny you should mention that. I recently learned that the individual who is often considered the greatest poet in Russian history is Alexander Pushkin, who is black, or at least very much part black. He's related to two other black Russians (all this in the 18th and 19th century by the way) who were prominent figures in the Russian Military. One of which, the oldest one, came directly FROM Africa, believed to be Ethiopian in origin. I also learned just a couple days ago that Ethiopia was one of the first nations on the planet to make Christianity its national religion which is also pretty awesome.

A white man can be VERY proud of his white ancestry without being a racist. I've dated a couple Asian chicks before, a couple Natives, a black Haitian (I was pretty good at making her giggle with the little bit of French that I know), and the best drinkin' buddy I ever had was a Native. He's the only man on the planet that I would trust with my very life.

I'm a proud Caucasian, I'm a proud Christian, I'm a proud Conservative, I am a proud Capitalist, and when I become an American I will be a proud Republican. There is only one reason why someone would even think that I'm a racist; toxic leftist ideology. I've been there, I used to think that those critical of Islam were bigots, but I've researched the religion itself, I've read a fair bit of the Quran, and feminists supporting it is like black people supporting the KKK or Jews supporting Nazism, which by the way Ben Shapiro does not do. He's an ORTHODOX JEW for Christ's sake. That's like... fuckin' Super Jew status, yet idiotic fascist Antifa think he's a Nazi? There's no words that can truly describe that level of idiocy, I've been trying to find them.
