His views are completely in sync with the standard liberal line. Down to a tee. On everything. In fact he doesn't seem capable of disagreeing with anything the mainstream social engineers have in store for us. There are literally millions of websites on the web which reflect his viewpoints to a tee. I don't understand why those like him seek out the few corners of the web which espouse a different viewpoint from their own. There is a personal hostility reflected in his choice of words whether he is able to admit this or not. Whether or not anyone attacks him personally, he immediately starts "swinging" at whomever states an opinion contrary to his beliefs. He seems to have some sort of personal stake in tirelessly promoting the typical liberal viewpoint at every opportunity.
Well, thanks for devoting your tenth post to defining me. I look forward to more constructive feedback from you. I understand I am a minority here, and my voice is more often than not a cacophony against the standard "AW are all evil, feminist bitches - viva 2nd and 3rd world girls who know how to appreciate/respect/love a gringo" chorus.
Funny enough you label me as a liberal, as I have been fervently leftwing both politically and intellectually for as long as I can remember (and, being from Italy, leftwing means Marxist/Leninist, Commie proper). That's not the point, though. The point is that those expressed are my own ideas, whether or not they coincide with what is said on sites your love or despise. Most of those ideas don't even come from such a deep philosophical rumination, or endless hours spent roaming the cyberspace for contents that will validate or refine what I have in mind and would like to express. They come from 1) common sense and 2) at least two decades of direct mingling with people: males, females, smarties and bitches, from different cultures and walks of life.
And common sense and direct experience are the two things many of you guys seem to lack, or not be too interested in pursuing. There will always be nods and pats on shoulders for the next poster who reports on the shallowness of a certain specimen of Western/Anglo/American woman, or the spineless mangina du jour and his repulsive actions. And yet, who exactly is benefiting from singing the same mantras time and again, from these moments of collective chest-thumping? Not the broad categories of people you try to cover with your nameless rants and sweeping generalisations, as you're not making any names. Not those men and women you do put a name and a face on, as they will probably never know that HA exists and they're being the subject of our conversations.
And not even you, since every word you write, every thread you start or continue, chips away from the time and energy you could be spending talking to real girls and real friends on the street, at a house party, at a nice riverside bar, at the beach. The more you judge without experiencing, the more you will forget how immensely more pleasurable it is to experience without judging.
I have never meant to put any hostility or bitterness in my posts, ever. If you had read all of my old posts you will have noticed that I have only really lost my patience when some nutters have started to point the insult nozzle straight to my wife and my relationship with her, obviously knowing less than nought about neither. I am just, ever so often, saddened to see how much time and energy are wasted in digging more and more in the groove of common stereotypes and social paranoias (with a generous helping of conspiracy theories, pseudoscience and racism), instead of getting out of it and finally putting those stereotypes and paranoias to the test in a real life situation. One that involves you and a real girl of Memphis, Manila or Medellin.
