What Makes You Like a Person?

People will like you, but will not understand what it is that makes them like you, what traits and qualities. What they might say to justify it is generally a poor understanding of themselves, and a superficial interpretation. They don't know what qualities makes a person truly valuable.

This opens up the way for people to really like a person while simultaneously speaking scathingly against the very values that person stands for most and is all about. Sometimes they will even do this in an attempt to impress that person, to make them think they are 'cool', only to disturb them.

Of course, there's plenty of (mostly?) faux-respect we have for each other, based on manipulations, instincts, intimidation. For example, the way people are impressed by aggressiveness, or will obsess over someone who ignores them, or drawn towards someone who can provide them with rub-off status or power. This is not true good respect about a person however.


As for why often times people with good qualities are disrespected anyways? I'm not really sure, but I suppose it's sort of the inverse of the above faux-respect. Like someone who you feel will tarnish your own status with their own 'loser' status, so you are compelled to ridicule them to gain power, and the value they have is not readily apparent or expressed enough to overcome such instincts.



Anways...
one way or another, we don't know what has value.

Why Nothing Changes

I think I got a grip on how the 'modern' human mind works,
spend half of all your time trying to be "sexy",
spend the other half of all your time complaining and acting confused as to why gender roles, problems, and polarity "still" exist. not to mention all the other problems in the world. And why nothing ever changes. It's what you wanted?

So we get this paradigm shoved down our throat where we're constantly being fed these conflicting messages. Like, "you can do this but just don't act these certain particular ways about it." And being told what we need to do to fix the problem, you know, like all the feminist "rules", but the goal is something that is literally impossible to attain. You do what they tell you, and you'll find you're doomed to never being able to get it right. Because people want to have their cake and eat it, too. You can't change the problem by rearranging the surface, and we choose this distraction of the surface to avoid the real problem. If you want to be a body instead of aspiring to be a mind, that's what you get. And in actuality I think it may go even farther than that; I'm not sure people even really want to change anything. They just want to manipulate ideological structures to gain ego, manage guilt and push blame around. I get the hugest sense of irony from people when they do this, and I think they subconsciously feel it too. Because that's what you do when you feel guilty, you put on a facade that seems opposite, to portray yourself as righteous.
