Tim Barrus New York Times
Take notes. If I wanted to read a self help book, I would have bought one. I see self help rhetoric. I am working with people who emulate Antifa and Act Up. I do not throw shade on violence. What I hope for is civil war and let’s get this business of finishing the War Between the States. Forever. While the New York Times whines. Resilience is not an American attribute. America is not about being brave. Or defined by self help. The bottom line in America is that free speech has been replaced by moderators whose very existence is fundamentally based in “do not upset the horses in the barn.” This from people at the New York Times who obviously do not know what civility really is. This piece puts everything on the reader. It is ridiculous. Self help has this arrogant snobby idea that we are the Little People, and they are the people we need because they care. Please. It’s always about following their self help directions as we are so unaware because we are the slow people. Disingenuous. There is nothing substantial about self help. I do not need anyone telling me how to feel. I will resist you and I will do it in public. You don’t know anyone who wants a civil war. I’m unique and I get off on that. I am fighting back. Telling me that I need to change my paradigm so that I can be restful and nice is lame. I am not nice. I want a civil war. We are exploring the strategies of Act Up. All that cow blood on walls. It’s time. We are back to leaving corpses on institutional steps.
