The fine line between needing to be social and needing solitude.

Does anyone else have problems with this balancing act? If not I'm just getting this off my chest.

I feel odd when I'm with people, without being insulting towards other humans I find they frustrate the life out of me. I find people just don't really have much valid to say. At the moment I'm sick of hearing people being demonised for claiming benifits, by people who claim working tax credits, child tax credits etc. I'm not in a position were I personally need to claim benifits, however I'm not into the demonisation of the ill and unemployed. It's not only this issue, people just being wide of the mark on lots of topics, science denialist's tend to be particulary frustrating.

I'd like to get on with people a lot more, I enjoy being social (within my small circle of friends). But I just find people stupid, ignorant and inhumane. I'm generally misanthropic and tend to upset people quite frequently by telling them that human life is cheap and explaining about a history of slave labour, concentration camps etc. Well I say upset, I think it just annoys people as It questions thier humanitarian ideals. I suppose thier lies my problem, hypocritical humanist whom don't see that they treat humans particulary badly. For instance they want to save the world and help African children, but have a poor attitude to work colleages.

I went to Auschwitz recently and people seem perplexed that I didn't get upset from the visit. I find it very odd: when I here people talking about how they think other people should be dealt with for not working (and not conforming to thier belief system), I can easily see how something as big as Nazi Germany could escalate. I find it so odd that people think that work is the only important thing in life. Surely there has to be more to life than self regulated slavery?

Today I cut my grass with mp3 player on and it was just bliss. Solitude and the world blanked out.

Wierdly, I still crave some social activities even tho people frustrate the life out of me.

  • Spektral, the tattoo will hopefully be an empowered scapergoat with the sun decending on to it. The sun will be the Nazi symbol sonnerad/black sun. Each of the sun's rays will have a symbol of blame attached to it. So a pagan symbol, an occult symbol, a pyschology trident (to represent rational), a swastika to represent manipulation/misrepresentation of a symbol. Hopefully this will be done in black and grey and be done in Poland (if I can get the artist to do it). Symbols are not set in stone, Im still reasearching.

    LoCommotion, I too have problems on the phone. I struggle with processing (it may be dyslexia or aspergers, I'm not sure). I will avoid the phone at all costs.

    Hope, In someways my veiws are similar to comunism, but I wouldn't like the poverty that comunism tends to create. What you say is something as a society we should hope to acheive, even if we can't get there yet.

    True Colors, I would rather my taxes went on the things hope mentions. It all might not be practible, but I wan't a government that invests in people and not corperations. I can't think of anything better to spend my taxes on. I'd rather my taxes went towards the things hope mentions rather than killing iraqi's, funding Atos/G4S and other such corperate abominations.
