I know that this board in general (myself included) look at things from a liberal a.k.a leftist perspective but I do as an intellectual entertain the perspective of the political right wing.

like the saying goes one hand washes the other. and this is CERTAIN in America.

the duplicity and hypocrisy of society is a beautiful dance to me.

I conduct rightist conversations with my republican friends and although I disagree with a lot of what they say i listen deeper to find the REASONING behind what they think.

I can't say that they PERSONALLY are wrong for what they believe but i've come to the concensus that their bias comes from privelege ignorance and insensitivity to anything outside of their ilk.

My main reason for not attacking them for each thing I disagree with is this:

If I had the privilege (or disadvantage) to be as callous i would.

I chalk it up to human nature. we are selfish beings. if it weren't for our tribulations and/or our desire for privilege/wealth/liberty we wouldn't give a fucc about ANYTHING. those who lack care. those who do not lack do not care. why because they don't have too.

it's common sense. If I've never been faced with a problem I would feel it is a disposition to be faced with one. if it discomforts someone else to relieve me of my discomfort I don't care.

people who have are dispositioned to believe that wealth is a right. sharing is the plight of the poor.

hence my pervasive opinion that nothing is good or evil just perspective.

hopefully my leftist brethren and sistren gleen something out of this.

I agree with you......if someone has been provided for their entire life, or has never seen real hardship you cant expect them to have the same values as someone who is poor or less priveleged in any way . People associate best with those who share the same social circle, it's not always true but thats generally how it goes.
