This is why the teacher punishes you for reading too far ahead. I've worked hard to swim out here and I just feel hurt and alone; drifting out at sea. Being a radical means always having to be the hysteric or the sensitive. Apologizing even when you know you're right. Being irrational, when rationalization means accepting the dominant ideology. Always having to be wrong, because of some "crack in your armor" or some blemish on your record. Being the biggest ******* in the room, not even because you want to, but because you have to. Alienating everyone. Capitalize on who you are, and you can smother everyone eventually! Your profit is such that you can push everything away! Sleep easy knowing you were right. Sleep easy.

"Capitalize! [You'll **** Everything Eventually]."
