Ineptness breeds Conformity

The ignorance is overwhelming at times. I see young ones learning about something new, and then thinking since it's new for them, it must be new for everyone else. I think NS is getting flooded with youngsters who know everything (nothing). Really, there is SO MUCH that you don't know. The general public can barely scratch the surface of what is actually going on. And Im sick of showing people when they ask for examples. All I meet is resistance, resistance from kids who aren't even in the same ocean as I am. I realize my ignorance every day, and am daily shocked by the amount of shit people don't know. The newspapers aren't that smart, the TV is not smart most of the time, and Conversations around me..I can't even begin to tell you how frustruating it is to argue with someone who only drives their train. Some people jump from car to car, but you have to be able to jump from train to train.

The mass of conformity is a direct result of the mass of ineptness.

Inability to resist temptation results in conformity (alcohol, sex, mcdonalds, the latest clothing store whatever that is nowadays..) it's all a bunch of bullshit! Expose it inside your mind, the longer you search, question, rationalize, think, the closer you are to your own liberation.

good fuckin luck.

and stop giving blood and keeping the fat rich people alive. The greatest americans have not been born yet. They are waiting for the past to die.

i dont know how old you are, but you probaly have a few more years of experience on this planet than alot of the stupid kids. i bet that 4 or 5 years ago you were pretty ignorant too. I know i was ignorant when i was 13, and that i still can be, but now that im older i work hard to be openminded myself. I know i cant change the people around me but, eventually they will grow up a little.

although i understand what you're saying, you can't expect every person in this world to think every decision they make reasonably. People like living their life on instinct. Its fun and exciting, and even if it doesn't lead to success, they enjoy their lives while they're living them. If you want to be more reserved and think about things and realize how much you don't know, that's cool, and i mostly agree with you, but people are able to live their lives in their own way, and if you don't like it, you'll have to be the one to change, not them.

i slept with your mom last night
 
i remember in junior high, or middle school as some like to call it, those who didnt conform were losers, now its like the exact opposite.

we shall call him gmlr
 
Yeah guys, got a few things:

- This thread isn't about ignorant youngsters, it's about the stuborness of youth. They are not willing to accept anyone elses views unless they respect them. The problem is when you're young, respect comes in the form of who can do the craziest most irresponsible thing? Cool = Respect. Irresponsibility = Cool. Respect = Irresponsibility.

Who can jump off the highest shit spinning the most, flipping the most. These are the people who are respected, they dictate what our youth will learn. They dictate what our youth will and will not accept as a personal belief system.

That's what this thread is about.

You're not the first one to tell me I shouldn't care about showing people the light, to stop trying to save the world.

That's called giving up and Ill do it when Im dead.

Word of mouth is the best form of communication...always will (should) be. Anyone and everyone that enters my 360, my universe becomes not only an option for communication, but an oppertunity to spread your word. If you have something to say, IT IS YOUR OBLIGATION TO YOURSELF to say it. Get feedback. Be an individual. If you think something, talk about it until you find something better.

2 years ago I was a blissful ignoarmus. But I was smart enough not to resist change. The more I saw, the more I changed.

There is a new universe around you every second, always explore your 360, look up, down, behind you, beside you, and then do it again, this is how you learn.

You CAN change the people around you, and you know what?

THEY WANT TO BE CHANGED.

That's what I've discovered, contrary to popular belief, trying to change people can be a valuable and rewarding experience, for both parties. Everyone can, does, and should change. It's healthy.

Sinister, that's exactly what I mean. They learn a few things about the war, and then yells it to everyone who'se in their universe, and using powerful, one sided words like FUck.

Itsbackfliptime: Conformity ain't so bad. Thats a good, one, I'll remember that.

All I expect people to do is to keep learning and growing, never turn your brain off, never stop thinking.

misterbinz, Yeah, I realize that people choose to live certain ways. I beleive you can combine many different ways to live. You can do one at a time, or try and juggle them.

If you choose one way to live, thats fine, but they are missing so, so, so much.

That relates to my theory of day-to-day living.

There's four main ways to live in modern society: day-to-day, week-to-week, month-to-month, and finally, usually the most depressing, year-to-year living.

Day-to-day is summer, the endless beautiful summer, full of fun, adventure and life.

Week to week living is high school, living weekend to weekend, getting paid every 2 weeks, getting loaded and doind tests.

You can survive in college with week-to-week, but to do well, you have to switch to month-to-month living. Have to pay rent, cable, water, electricity, heating, visa - all paid once a month. Month to month living is hard, time starts to lose meaning, stretching out forever and racing by at the same time.

Finally, year to year. You have a career. you have a car, a house, a morgage, and kids. You now have to live year to year for your security. This becomes very tiring and depressing. No wonder people have Mid-Life crisis. They realize all the shit they wanted to do with their life, they haven't done. Now they have the money, they're gonna do that One greatest thing they dreamed about their whole lives, they're going to climb everest.

This is where my career lies. It lies in taking them up those mountains, and taking their money.

I get to climb mountains, and I get lots of money. Works for me

The trouble I have is living day to day IN a college setting.

And combined with the copious amounts of dope I smoke (im high right now) It doesn't help with success in school.

Good thing im smart and can write well.

I used to hate writing. I love it now. Im a changed man. Writing is one of the greatest things you can do. Highly recommended.

If you're still reading, Im horoured. Really, for you to stay on my train that long, and to hear what I have to say, that is the highest honor you can give me. Thanks.

or something like that.

I don't live for any of those things man, I don't live around a timeline. I live for beliefs and people and targets, it doesnt matter where they fit in chronologically.

I changed my sig because someone thought it was too long,so that makes it a shorter sig,doesn't it?Maybe i should make it longer,maybe not,but who gives a fuck?Certainly not me,neither your mom,I like trees,because they grow apples,and I like apples as much as i like weed.

My conclusion is that we should all put some seeds under the ground in some hot country(like mine,where the heat is too hot to move 3 feet away from the swimming pool)and just let it grow,because when i get old i wanna get stoned,but in order to get high i need to improvise some techniques for the growth of pot.

I suppose it depends what you conform to? Conforming to classic teenage society would not make me happy, i'd get bored and frustrated that I wasn't using my full potential. But conforming to biblical teaching (my personal preference) is what I feel uses my gifts and tallents the most. It makes me feel good and happy, and purposefull. That's all I ask. I also live to make my friends and familly happy, and to in general bring a smile to the faces of people I meet by being a bit of a nutter and making them laugh. I have a good time but I don't preach unless someone asks or I know them well enough.

i dont believe everyone wants to change, if that were true there wouldnt be conservatives, and anyway the liberals of today are the conservatives of tomorow, and i dont mean this on just a political scale, but you could also look at it this way, everyone wants change, but only if its good for them, whether its a tangible or intangible good they wont like it unless it is good for them

i guess it could be argued that the purpose of life is the neverending search of knowledge, but its neverending and humans are lazy

Fuck You
 
well,maybe noy everyone is okay with way they want to be.

B-wald:

'you're not any sort of jesus figure here man..(by the way..i'm not religious or anything..so don't take it that way..)

not everyone wants to be changed..

just because you find a way of life that works for you doesn't mean that everyone has to follow suit..have you ever thought that they might be in the same boat?..they've found something that works for them..don't you think your step stool you're standin on here's a little high to go around tryin to change people from this?

but i gotta say..i totally agree with you on a lot of stuff..change is a great thing..not much better in the world..

blind conformity's horrible..if you just follow the crowd..you're not living..but extreme anti-conformity's just as bad..isolation from others ain't livin either..

i gotta say that self righteous people annoy me..they think they have all the answers in life..and feel like they need to enlighten you..

i dont need enlightenment..i like livin how i do right now..'

- Hey man, Im not saying anyone has to be like me. Im not saying I have all the answers. Why do you assume that? Because I share how I see the world and what I think about it, and what could/should be done? I am saying the would would be a lot more lax if everyone was like me, the world would be healthier if everyone was like me, adventures would be daily activities if everyone was like me.

That I can say. So Maybe Ill make a few people see that same things I do. Why shouldn't I?

Does that make me a jesus figure? Maybe, is that a bad thing to be?

It's the same as a role model or peer.

Is being a peer a bad thing? A role model?

Just because you may feel you thought about what I have thought about, and you are past it, doesn't mean you should have animosity towards someone who hasn't found their answers yet, or who are searching through opinion for answers.

Opinionated and Openminded. Thats the way to be.....for me

There's just so much resistance sometimes......the conservative side in everyone.....

anti conformity or the hole punk thing has really become just another group to conform to, justy the idea of going out of your way to act or look different to impress people seems kinda stuipid to me,i dont worry about whether i conform or not,i live how i live, and if some aspects of my life are not totaly unique it does not bother me

what i don't like, i don't like how others don't like good grades. like in my algebra class, i got a 97 on my midterm. the guy next to me said he was going to kidnap me, because he got a C or something like that. My friend Alex, he told me he doesn't like talking about test scores, because none of his friends get excellent grades, and he's in all AP classes and got 1450 on SATs and they don't like to hear it. that to me is real ignorant.

i forgot one important point:

People don't Know they want to be changed.

Trunst me, This is a topic I have mastered, It's all Ive been doing for 6 years. Seriously trust me on this one, people want to be changed, but don't know it. Usually because they don't know what's out there. They don't know their options, the alternatives.

They see it on tv, but can't feel it. Once you feel it, your whole world changes (Im thinking about Travelling and X-Games etc as an example)

when searching for the method of life that suits you its allways better to be presented with more optiuons

Of course. But now I have a pretty solid base to build on. Sure my entire belief system has come crashing down time after time, But the base for by nexy building just keeps getting bigger and bigger, my buildings stronger and higher.

I tell people how I live and what the benefits are, I don't think I really Tell people how to live, just that there are many ways, If you need one, how bout some of mine? maybe rent out a floor on my building, stay as long as you want until you can build your own house. Maybe I just give a bit of financial security to those who need some stability, something to grow with.

A bank, kind of.

I just never understood the animosity I get sometimes, I never try to hurt people, why do they try to hurt me?

in general of course.

from the depths of my high mind.

this is all I do all day. build my castles.

Oh yes, the bigger they are, the harder thay fall for sure. Every fall is more....devastating? intense?..than the previous. But then I get smart and start to Build Pyramids.

those fuckers never fall down.

I've read siddhartha, also Damien, which is even better.

aldo Way of the peaceful warrior by dan millman

and of course Ishmael by daniel quinn

The best Book Ive ever read:

From Unconsciousness to Consciousness - OSHO

and

The rebellious sPirit - OSHO

If you find those books, you have found something truly priceless.
