I'll be honest, I can't figure out if you're arguing for objectivism or if you're a bleeding heart liberal justifying that a drug addict mooching off everyone is just a misunderstood existentialist philosopher.
I'm Catholic. I believe I'm responsible for every ill in the world through my most grievous sinning, in what I have done and what I have failed to do. So its my fault.
More seriously, I think we agree? Fundamentally, we have a society that is (was) too rich and therefore too soft making a whole cohort of (mostly white [1]) boys into Peter Pans.
You'll have to explain me the white bread comment though.
[1] Inner urban cities aren't exactly peachy places to grow up in. For all their problems, inner city youths have being brought up to be a helpless wimp isn't one of them.
- barrysteve 3y agoI know you're Catholic, it is, um, obvious from the content and structure of your comments, and I don't aim for my beliefs to be unknown either. I need to make absolutely clear and dig it into your heart (if necessary), is that the home-grown meanings inside your white boy's mind, are novel, worthwhile and capable of change. There is something going on, and not only is that truth an easy motivator/harness, but the top down image that these boys are just hippes, bums and losers, is a missed opportunity (to say the least). White bread, a colloquial term for something excessively plain/uninteresting/stale/ect. You're not wrong about the Peter Pans, ect... I'd want to see our Fathers find and leverage the growing meaning in our sons.
