Fear:
- Someday, skipping school to smoke chronic and hang with friends will catch up with me and that a career in hip-hop simply doesn't await me.
- That I will never become great. I'm sure there are millions of people like me who feel like they are entitled to greatness, but I dunno. Ever since I was like 10, I always felt like I was destined for greatness. It's not so much an issue of entitlement. I don't feel like I deserve greatness, I just have this unshakable feeling that, one way or another, I will become great. I've tried to be more realistic with myself, but my ego will have none of it. I guess it's kind of a double-edged sword, but whatever. Honestly, I don't even know how to describe it; it's not a desire to be great, it's not believing that I should be great, it's almost like an innate knowledge, or passive acceptance of a fact that I will be great.
Hate:
- The world. In a non-emo way, I really don't like seeing what's going on in the world today. I'm hugely optimistic in the sense that I have limitless faith in the spirit of mankind, but also pretty cynical in that I believe the world right now is pretty much fucked to the point where it's almost irreparable.
- Racism, sexism. This is weird, since I make a lot of racist and sexist jokes, but I mean basically everyone I know jokes about racism. Genuinely racist people get on my nerves, though; I guess I'm pretty hypocritical. Sexism is a little different, just in that the thing I hate most is the people who argue that men and women are the same. There are somethings men can do better than women, and vice versa. This is a fact, and I think society would do well to accept it. Compare every Male Olympic record, and compare it to the respective female Olympic records. I do not mean to slight either gender in any way, but I think it's of utmost importance that people recognize the differences between genders.
Hate; ignorance, the right-wing, evangelism, most men, most lesbians that live in the vicinity of bristol, the homeless, junkies, kant, my art teacher, vomiting, girls who think they're better than you because they wear less clothes and sleep with more men.
A lot of people judge Kant based solely on his ethical endeavours (Categorical Imperative, particularly its first formation), and see him as a moral absolutist. Kant is one of my least favourite philosophers, but only because of the impact that his treatises had on Western society. However, his works in metaphysics and epistemology are honestly not nearly as bad. I realize now you may share my point of view in its entirety, but I just want to make sure that before you're all like "Kant is shit" you should make sure you've read a significant amount of his work.
