The Journaling of Hinton 389

I just lost a friend because he disagreed with my point of view on these five high school students who were booted from school for wearing American flags on "Cinco de Mayo." And it's not that I disagreed with him, really. I said that I thought it was a mistake for the school to boot these five numbskulls for acting like little racist, teabagging idiots. If they want to wear the American flag on a t-shirt (although a TRUE patriot KNOWS that wearing the flag as an article of clothing is inappropriate), unless these little teabaggers were in violation of a school rule, then they should have been left alone. Of course, the right wing idiot-o-sphere is going nuts over the fact that these good, clean, AMERICAN kids were booted from school while those dirty, filthy, brown-skinned MEXICANS were allowed to STAY and FLAUNT their heritage on a day that is barely even observed in Mexico but is more-or-less used an another excuse to get drunk on an ethnic holiday in America. I mean, how many teabagger kids make a special point of wearing an American flag to flip the metaphorical "finger" to the Irish on St. https://essayfreelancewriters.com/blog/freedom-in-america-essay/ ?

So, OF COURSE these kids were making a political statement. And OF COURSE the right wing nut-o-sphere is going batshit over this. I just never realized my friend was so far gone with his right wing craziness that he would let my opinion cost him my friendship. This was not a casual Facebook friend. I served with in Japan. A former room mate. Someone who, for some reason, decided to stay in Japan when his tour ended. One of the best pals I have ever had. And now, because he misunderstands my point here as saying it's ever wrong for kids to wear the American flag on any day they want to (which proper flag etiquette says IS wrong), he has disavowed my friendship and cut me off from any further communication. Of course, I've known my friend to be a right wing ideologue since I met him. He was absolutely certain that Bill Clinton was an agent of the Chinese government and that Hillary was a murderer. We was CERTAIN that instead of turning over power in 2001, Clinton would declare martial law and hold on to the presidency. Now, he is CERTAIN that Obama is a Kenyan Manchurian Muslim Candidate who has nothing less than the destruction of FREEDOM on his agenda, and that means we'll all be rounded up and put in the camps. My friend would make these statements on FB posts, and I would chide him in good nature. But I also remember the friend who I drank sake with at the Yokohama baseball park, who I strolled the streets of Tokyo with. I thought our friendship went beyond ideology.

The charm of interactivity with others wears off quickly and has limitations. While not everyone may be suited for the island of personal exile. Paradise comes in myriad formats of personal perception. Sometimes, solitary personal placements have their encouragements. Yet, autonomy has a lack of sovereignty in a perfect sense. Freedom is misleading. Absolute freedom is an ideal conception. It is not just a matter of being free, but a deliberation upon the consequences of its cause and effect upon all the senses. Free will invites the liberty of divergent conflicts no matter what the fear of others. Blameworthiness collides with one's striving to move onward, along with accountability and responsibility. Openness to exceptional possibilities encourages the nonconformity of personal conviction to escape the entrapment of others. However, when remorse, fear, and guilt are allowed to shame individual self-directed action, unproductive dysfunctional conformity sets in. This geometric progression of human devolution hastens the eventual demise of the species. As personal responsibility falters, chaos and anarchy join forces.

Accountability ends up with accumulated losses to the detriment of civilization. Even though the opposition and the challenge to social conforming has its risks, only a few brave ones will accept the challenge. In opposition, the vast majority will insist upon the cowardice of their gluttonous collectivism. The many will accept the contrived perpetration of those that demand mindless conventionality. For the warrior mindset, willful rebellion to oppressive tyrannies do go unchallenged. The blessed sanctification of solitude, in the potency of ultra-rationalization, with wise control of bias, is the antidote for the wild spread of arrogance in the cultivation of stupidity. Being alone, meditating rigorously in the sweat of intense ideation, the laborious quest for wiser ascendency never ceases to hunt for the liberation in transformation. Fighting back, resisting and arguing ethical precepts in wisdom versus ignorance, to ensure a righteous sense antagonism. Purposeful in the drive to strive to achieve the fruition of dreams, aspirations and wishes stir the imagination and potency of creativity. Imagination is essential. Regardless of the opposing forces that are ever-present, with their negativity, both overt and covert, the individual perseveres onward against the onset of the zombie apocalypse.

That of course is a metaphorical reference to the degrading erosion of culture toward eventual extinction of the human species. Relentless, and sometime ruthless, the warrior mindset defends the rightness of individuation in personal liberation. Freedom of the will fosters release from social bondage. To erect obstacles and throw up barriers at every turn, the less evolved, the inept, and the detractors will find opportunities for their schemes. Cowardice grimaces upon the faces of the fearful, who know only weakness and forsake acts of courage. Ethical weakness abounds everywhere. For the negative people, instead of being crafters, artisans, or warriors, they will perform their role as betrayers and steal from others. No matter what the risk, however, the energies of warriors configure different alternatives that are productive. The pleasure of gainful enrichment for being free stimulates the expectations of perseverance. Yet, free at no cost is unrealistic. Everything has a price and always carry risks. Likewise, as faith in the invisible bears no allegiance to the tangible, the ethical admonition is to the betterment of oneself with no harm to others.
