I was asked the other day why all my views are so “radical.” I stopped and smiled, and after a moment’s thought I said, “I have been radicalized by reality.” What did I mean exactly? I look around at the world and the absolutely stupid things people believe; I have observed and rejected their failures. The catastrophic disasters they have made out of everything they have touched, has radicalized me.
So many people believe so many things that are just so wrong. They have been easily coerced and even brainwashed to believe things that are objectively false by almost any rational measure. But we do not live in rational times.
The unwittingly godless philosophies and worldviews of the programmed breathers lead to the most stupid societal outcomes imaginable and gives power to some of both the dumbest and most evil people among us.
I have looked at the world around me and weighed the outcomes of the dominant belief systems and the absolute failures they have produced. The only conclusion one can draw is that reality is a hard taskmaster for these utopian-minded buffoons. And for those with an ability to think, this reality can only have a radicalizing effect. The thoughtless scream at the mirror and wonder why the world is as it is.
My views aren’t really radical at all.
