yeah i can't tell you how many times i watched fear and loathing in high school, and that book actually got me back into reading, which I hadn't done for years at that point. as you say, his whole mockery of the system which I at the time understood was fucked up, but didn't really have the words to explain why it was fucked up, was really important
haha yeah i guess that's pretty true. i was heading that way myself if I didn't get into anarchism. all my friends are fuckin burnt though, still great people but yeah, the contrarianism without having anything you're really working for really brings one down after a while
It’s the kind of text that initiates, re-organizes, helps to understand an instant, but doesn’t go beyond (well it’s an oversimplification but let’s say that). Much like hedonism, it has a potential in re-centering yourself, for a moment. But AFTER THAT there is a need to go beyond, to follow a strong desire, a revolutionary one, not a loop of pleasure.
It is necessary to break the cage in which you are in. Except there is a need to ask oneself then, what the fuck do we do ?
