"Programmed" and "aggressive" and "passive" and "passive aggressive" and "better person than" and "perfect person" are lies.

Just because you would be thinking this or that or feeling this or that way or would have this motive or that reason for doing what I'm doing if YOU were the one doing it, doesn't mean I have that motive you have. 

I am not you. It takes one to spot one, in a psychological sense... it takes one like you to spot one like you... but that never means that every one you spot is one like you... You clearly aren't paying enough attention to the situation and to your own use of logic to be accurately judging my values or motive or intent or goal or reason at all... and that's because your own traumas are distracting you and thus are making you only able to pay enough attention to project your own traumas and your abusers' intents and your own intents onto me. Knock it off. I don't do that to you. If I do, tell me.

I'm a full and complete person who is more than what you think of me or who you want me to be or are assigning me to be. I'm just as intense and complex and THERE as you are... I was never a blank wall you could project your crap onto... and then when you try, you wonder why your projection doesn't show up as you expected or wanted, and you blame the wall for not being blank enough like you expected. No one is a blank book you can write your own crap in without their permission. Everyone has as rich a past, present, and future as you do. So if your crap either makes the book crappy, or makes your writing in it not even show up over what is already in there, then that's not the fault of the book you thought was blank.

This extends to and always included the fact that no one is or was ever born a blank slate-- we come with memories that we forget most of later. We come fully sentient and as more connected than not, as we were forever before. 

No one is "programmed to receive." That is a lie. No one is the empty, dark part of the yinyang... that side is empty space; we are all matter... souls... part of the full light side. It isn't matter that's soulless and souls that aren't matter... how could that even be possible? Some of those people have it ass backwards.

We all receive and give ourselves on the outside of us, as connections that last forever, but no one themself is an empty or nonexistent or lesser or non-whatever that you get to fill with your own crap to "make it fuller" or for any reason.

Roses Are Red, revised (had a lot of mistakes before)

Roberta's voicemail to Elton: Today's protest rally Roses are red, bear spray is for bears, the human you sprayed suffered retinal tears. If you need to defend yourself order some mace. If I see more bear spray I will cut up your face. Elton to Roberta: Moron. Roses are red, You're not as smart as you think. If you don't watch your mouth, you'll end up in the clink. I happen to know several cops and a judge. If you don't show respect I will beat you to sludge. Roberta to Elton: Hypocrite. Roses are red, You threatened me too. If today I'm arrested, tomorrow it's you. I have talked to your friends and I know you are bluffing. Leave me alone or I'll rip out your stuffing. Elton to Roberta: Cease and desist. Roses are red, Jail is boring. There isn't good food or even adequate flooring. If you don't stop now I will call the police. I will get your ass charged with disturbing my peace. Roberta to Elton: Protect yourself. Roses are red and I happe...

I'm back with a brand new rant about an old AND new issue.

The issue is this:  Don't ever call me passive and then expect to remain on good terms with me. "Passive" is not a neutral statement. "Passive" means stupid. "Passive" means incapable. "Passive" means lazy. "Passive" means confused, which basically in this case also means stupid. "Passive" means cowardly. "Passive" means not all there or vegetative. "Passive" can also mean boring, but that's the least of our worries given the other things it means. It is not a neutral term. Use it if you want; I'm not the speech or thought police. But using it on me will cost our friendship. Because just like I can't and would never force you to speak a certain way, you can't ad shouldn't want to force me to take demeaning, degrading treatment. "Passive" is the assumption that I don't have good reasons for being quiet or civil, or that I shouldn't be allowed to choose for myself whe...

You might need a new one. We all do sometimes.

To everyone in the world, myself included sometimes: If dehumanizing anyone is part of your religion, you need a new religion. If dehumanizing others is part of your job, then you need a new job. If dehumanizing people was part of your education, then you need a new education. If dehumanizing you is how your family bonds, then you need a new family. If dehumanizing you brings your friends closer together, then you need new friends. If dehumanizing someone is a release for you, then you need a new release. If dehumanizing anyone is a pastime for you, then you need a new pastime. If dehumanizing anyone at all, any sentient being, or everyone, or a few, or certain types, even sometimes, is your lifestyle, then you need a new lifestyle. I would never tell you WHAT lifestyle to have, just pick any one that doesn't involve or include or encourage dehumanization of anyone!
