I know. It's fine to think that inwardly as long as you outwardly balance it. You need perspective and a degree of humbleness not to be an ass-hat. As soon as you become that you lose the ability to share insight with others. Just stay smart about it. I like to be a force of perspective when I can be, so I mostly meant it as a jab instead of an admonition.

Is this spiritual Marxism?

This assertion that on the inside, we are all perfectly equal. One vast, homogeneous mass. Alienation is vanity and nothing more. My soul mate is everyone, everywhere, but I'm just too self-absorbed to notice how fucking relatable my situation is to everything else.

No, no, anon. We each are accorded our share of understanding in righteous proportion to how humble we are. It's all a matter of how well we observe our fundamental equality.

only fucking retards get that feeling. just imagine thinking that a bunch of double-digit IQ faggots who can't decide what show to binge next on netflix is "vivid and complex." i'm no genius or anything but these people are fucking idiot boomers who think like this:
>need to go to work
>need to get paychex
>need to go out tonight
>need to get high
>need to get a nut
>tired
>sleep
>wakeup
>repeat
interesting people with interesting lives don't hang out at the mall.

Socializing with people who may not intuitively understand you is still important. I simply object to the notion that alienation always belies a self-centered temperament. It's making me a little bitter, so I pull the thought to its extremes and proceed to dismantle it.

Perhaps he thinks I am disregarding Eastern meditations on universal consciousness and I suppose I am. Suffering is rooted in the ego which divides the self from the greater whole or what have you. I am doing just that, hence I am a moron in his eyes.

It's actually not true though. Get to know people, they don't think like you but they have their own rich inner lives. Then again my sample is people I've found via the internet, not randoms on the street who watch reality TV.
