universal mensch auf der west:

to fully play out a game of "bad faith":
you need to... succumb to something
equivalent of cogito-ergo-negatio...
thinking within the confines negation...
but...
to fully play out a game of "good faith":
you need to... succumb to something
equivalent of cogito-ergo-dubatio...
thinking within the confines of doubt:
of doubting...
to doubt is to somehow "love"...
doubt offers the same plethora of emotions
that love allows you to entertain...
it's no more:
i think, therefore i can't doubt
my existence...
or i think, therefore i also doubt:
therefore; i exist...
no!
how many people think, "think":
but at the same time: negate
their thinking: yet still exist!
good faith: thought + doubt...
bad faith: "thought": politics + negation...
it's not lying: per se...
it's just lying for when
a convenience arises...
               or is: arrived at...
if your own thinking can't be persuasive
enough: to convince you that
you have a moral "obligation":
a compass...
how many times didn't i think
about murdering:
no... i didn't think about ******...
i thought about...
poaching that ******'s hand
that unscrewed the bolts on my front wheel...
of a bicycle...
because he thought i was
higher up the hierarchy than he
was: come to think of it...
i still think about poaching his hand
and sitting throughout the next
torture of seeing him eat it...
i still do...
oculus per oculus:
an eye for an eye...
      that's that thrills me...
          you unbolt the bolts in
my bicycle: and i just might...
cause a traffic accident:
someone else gets blamed for
manslaughter?
this?! this is the sort of "justice"
western society feels like...
"feels" like... exporting?
i hope they prevent themselves from
any export of the kind...
the western european man:
is not the *******! universal man!
some people need a taste for
both the hammer & the sickle!
it's harsh... but...
when wasn't nature... harsh?
since Darwin arrived?!
Darwin made it quicker: less so...
a killer tiger can't make it
smoother when compared to
man killing man?
the tiger itches for food...
what does man killing man
console?
  give me the tiger!
              each night i think of
eating: or being given
up for food...
envy is the footstuff
of the gods; as motive...
          to **** in order to feel this superiority...
i'd rather a tiger **** me for:
food....
than a fellow man **** me
for some said emotion...
even if i were the Devil:
i would have already lost my quest
to abandon the gods
and leave it for man to abandon envy....
to hell with man!
i would never want man to
be this, here, now...
to hell with man!
              so many have passed through
the "score"....
there is no: universality of man
based on the concern to uphold
"the west":
sorry... there isn't...
people want to focus on their: own.
