I’m intellectually post-labor.
And I’m not going to invest my time in some destined to failed whatever because there’s a monolith called America that intentionally makes such endeavors disagreeable.
My failure to walk the walk is in not doing anything that undermines America’s existence. Everything I do is mired in fraudulence, cowardice, disingenuousness, apathy, and failure. I’m never going to act on my beliefs except to behave as a person who doesn’t need to be governed. I try my best not cause harm. In practice, I’m a pacifist. And philosophically I’m aligned with Tolstoy and Thoreau. And the Unabomber. Except they really did things.
