There is only rage

Filed under: Society — bblackmoor @ 20:41

Trying to find a reasonable conversation in 2015 is like trying to stand between raindrops to stay dry. There is no context. There is no humour. There is no spectrum between virtuous and despicable. There is only self-righteous rage, and the imperative to vent it… somewhere.

What do we want? Respectful discourse. When do we want it? Now would be agreeable to me, but I am interested in your opinion.

Ethnicity and religion

Filed under: About Me,Philosophy,Society — bblackmoor @ 12:09

My opinion on ethnicity and religion: they are, at most, as important as being a fan of a sports team or a film franchise.

If it causes you to share good times with people in the same group, great. If it entertains you and a competing group to be opposed in a safe and friendly contest, that’s great, too. If it’s an excuse to be mean to other people, or take something away from some other group, or reserve some benefit solely for your group, you are doing it wrong.
