SatanicPuppy's Journal: I hate extremists.

Myself I describe an extremist as someone who holds both a radical agenda and a complete unwillingness to compromise. This includes both the left wingers and the right wingers, as well as anyone who is overzealous about any particular cause or ideology. I'm including hippies, jesus freaks, radical feminists, and die hard racists in this. If you belong to one of these groups, you're a fuckup.

Nothing personal, of course, its just the way it is. You're a fuckup. An irrational obstructionist whose mind is so narrow that they cannot stand the slightest disagreement or the tinyest compromise.

I can handle the fact that you fuckers exist. What really gets me is that you're so goddamn certain you're right. You've got to be pretty damn arrogant to take a position shared by a tiny minority and declaim that as an absolute truth.

Take the hippies, for example. These people are living in a seriously disconnected world; we're not talking drugs here, we're talking about social priorities so out of whack with the world the rest of us live in, that they tend to congregate in scary little enclaves where they agree with each other all the time, and throw these wild ass protests any time anything remotely corporate moves in. They're against all industry, and all corporations, and they love assigning stereotypes to people who think differently to them, while decrying stereotypes in general.

Radical feminists, specifically Dworkin and her crowd, push their anti-male agenda with the same fervor and some of the same solutions that the racists use to push their anti-race agendas. Equally stupid and shallow. Equally "We're superior and you're fucking us over". Both groups make me ill.

And then there are the religious whackos. I think they're my all time least favorite. I'd say the hippies, but the hippies have at least SOME compassion for their fellow men. I am incapable of understanding how groups that supposedly follow a compassionate and forgiving god are capable of neither forgiveness nor empathy.

I say we get them all together and ask them really nicely to allow that there might be other view points. And when they spit on our shoes, I say we lock them all in a room together, and let them fight it out.

Theoretically, we could let the winners OUT of that room, but really, I think thats a bad idea.
