Chaos Turtle:
To correct another obvious misconception, I do not love the law. I love my country. I think that our Constitution is hands-down the best basis for a government, at least in recent civilization. It is a work of wisdom and beauty, with rules contained in it that allow it to be changed when the need arises, and even to have those changes repealed when necessary. It's that Constitution, and the system of government it establishes, that prevents people who would force their own beliefs upon the masses from doing so unhindered.
Until I saw this example of degeneration, you had me spellbound by your words.
The lack of personality never fails to avenge itself, and in this case - in your case, in the American case - it is always in the from of this "beautiful" Constitution of yours, which, with all honesty, is one of the greatest threats to mankind: it offers unworthy human beings a sense of freedom which they do not deserve. Today there are people of every sort and type (how I would love to point my finger at them and call them by name!) running around with such an obscure concept of "freedom." If I asked you what does your "freedom" mean, you will fail to tell me. You do not
know what you are free to do. When freedom becomes a
right, a
law, it fails to be freedom and becomes something so abstract, something so inferior, to the extent that it belongs to
everyone. But does everyone deserve freedom? Well then! if they at all deserve freedom they would have been
free! they would need no right to protect them, no law to legalize freedom.
When freedom becomes the rule, it also becomes a prejudice. Some of us are born with the
right to remain inferior and unfree, because that is all they know - their unfreedom constitutes their entire physiological and psychological existence, their instincts, and with that, their
common sense as well.
You love your Constitution? of course you do, my friend - of course you do. Zoo animals who enjoy the right of man, too, would love your Constitution - for it equalizes man and man: everyone has the right to lay his hands, whatever hands, whatever filthy, degrading, subhuman hands, on freedom. That's not to say that they become
free at that moment! No - they remain unfree, but they obtain unto themselves a type of appearance which gives them rights which they otherwise
cannot have. My friend, I am not shocked at your love of freedom and your love of your country. They are respectable facets! and even appreciation and admiration for the law is necessary at all times! but let us not forget
why you're in love with this piece of obscurity: because without it, today, you would be
down there, where you belong. Oh my friend! I understand and admire your courage! but again you must understand: when freedom is handed to anyone, especially to those who
necessarily need freedom to keep them from sinking, freedom at that day loses its value. Today where we stand, freedom has lost all value. One rather becomes unfree! it is a hundred times more
free than your freedom. One rather becomes unfree! it is a hundred times more merciful and gives
us few far more distant, away from you - you counterfeiters of everything good and healthy.
My friend, life is a war! your type had from the beginning declared its war against Nature and everything Natural. Oh, of course you have! for you like giving freedom to those who Nature gave a special privilege: the right to be unfree! Life is a war, and your subtype is as I see it the victor! Lo, it appears that
we are the subtypes, for we have lost to you the greatest human dignity: our Natural duties.
Nevertheless, my war against
your type has yet to begin. The dawn draws nears, and I have all my courage to spare, to overcome the fact that counterfeiters will exist! That is my greatest liberation: my liberation from your counterfeit freedom, your counterfeit existence, your Constitution, your America, your "right of the majority," your "happiness for all," and your "good."
I will not die! without glaring at the sky and beholding for even a second the crimson atmosphere, the falling ashes, the falling eternal, of America. I too have declared a war - and my war will not end, until the downfall of the greatest anti-man: America.
