Have you ever wondered why some people go so far out of their way to do the following…
- Demand that we see them as downtrodden victims
- Demand that somehow victims are noble, elevated beings
- Demand that we believe their poor hyper-sensitive selves must be protected
- Demand that we all live for the sake of our neighbors, and never ourselves
Here’s why – so that when push comes to shove they can wield power over others by simply demanding that they get their own way by fiat, backed up by the power of the nanny state.
Let’s listen to ginmar make the point, shall we?
“So my other neighbors are morons, too. I asked nicely—-you could hear the fucking stereo a block away, much less ten feet away—-and then turned it down fractionally, then cranked it back up. “Can you turn that down?” I got the whole Diva Attitude, too, which is stupid: if you piss me off, I call the cops, and if I call the cops enough, you can get evicted from that house. “FUCK NO BITCH.”
In other words, make dam sure you kiss my ass or I’ll whine like a victim and get you in trouble. Since I have no pride, no life and no desire to take any direct action you better not underestimate how far I will go for my petty revenge.
If you were ever curious what these peopel really want the world to become, read Anthem by Ayn Rand. It’s free and you can read it online.
Yeah, ginmar should totally just meekly suck it up, and let her neighbors do whatever they want. And asking them to turn their music down is totally not direct action by her. At all!
Thanks for the chuckle.
