I think you could say Hawk's attitiude to life is basically survival mode, which takes priority over his principles

And here I was thinking he was completely rational and that I was just too dense to understand.

I do that all the time. I think it’s moronic to believe something just because you used to believe it. Why should the now me give a **** what past me thought? I also have contradictory opinions at the exact same time. Fear of hypocrisy is for simpletons. The mind is complex. The brain has different parts that do different ****. Why would thought be linear? People seem to want to maintain a sense of identity about things. Idgaf about that.

If that were the case I’d be comfortably middle class. Or rich.

That's fair. I guess it more fair to say it takes priority over your principles sometimes
I do view you as a principled person, even when I disagree with you

To me it seems like you think like a typical college student and typical college students definitely strike me as way too dense to understand.

So why is it that you have a sense of identity about Muslims. It's almost like the above is an excuse to not apply critical thinking to your knee jerk reactions.

I think most of that came when I wanted the Democrats to capitulate to the republicans to get me whatever the republicans were willing to give since it was either take what the republicans were giving or nothing. I could’ve gotten another check, too. And I’m intentionally not saying we. Obviously I’d choose to get money over not getting money. It didn’t matter that the dems wanted to give me more because they didn’t have the power. AND I got ripped off by the affordable care act. They charged me $700 for insurance I never received. AND the dems ****ed up the schools with all their testing bull****.

I support ISIS’ position on America.

Obviously the rich use more resources.

Put it this way, global population needs to be kept at around 300 million to be sustainable but if I’m in charge of the reduction measures we’re starting with the richest people first and **** would be very humane before the poor were affected.

Just because the population is unsustainable doesn’t mean everyone consumes equally. The worst offenders should be the first to go. The poor should gradually be given a sustainable paradise.
