Not a Leftist, Not a Rightest .... I am theRealist. Don't Ever Be Afraid to Voice Your Thoughts Or Opinions
Welcome,
The steemit community and decentralized platform is a wonderful way for different ideologies and concepts to come to life. The future is moving at such a rapid pace right before our very eyes with such a vast expanse and wide variety of technological advancements each and every day. What a wonderful time to be alive am I right?! Yet on the contrary, the powers at be have pushed our personal opinions, thoughts, voices, and mindsets further into each corner of popular demand. That is where @therealist enters the spectrum.
Being one that even from a young age naturally made a habit of not abiding by the rules to hierarchal demands I find it just and almost called for to create a page that can speak on multiple viewpoints that may be looked as disruptive or "frowned upon" by the hand the feeds on other social media platforms. Censorship sure is a mother-fucker. Which generally leads to a one-way thought process. Or at least the idea that you have "broken the rules" comes into play with this censorship controlling our opinions by reprimanding opposing viewpoints. As we know from history, that is not how progress is made, and that is not how opposing viewpoints are reasonably heard and debated upon. We now live in an age where we have become so quick to label, judge, stereotype, call names, wage war, physically harm, and in worst case scenarios murder one another simply over hidden ideologies. Rather than be addressed as humans, and not irrational, emotionally charged creatures blinded by the rage of common misunderstandings. Welcome to the future. Fucking amazing right? All these years, and this is how our brains are responding? It's outrageous.
I know what you are thinking at this point, so I will go ahead and address it. I said I am not a leftist nor a rightest, I am @therealist. What I am conveying is that I am actually, to someone, somewhere, to some degree leaning hard left or hard right I am sure. And that is 100% okay, because I do have views that cross all aisles, paths, walkways, rivers, valleys, universes and galaxies. I am here to speak based on what I view as ultimate truth or in some cases ultimate lies. So yes, you will find perspectives, questions and read articles and opinion pieces that will vary extremely across a wide variety of topics and yes, most likely "offend " someone in each instance. Again, that is 100% okay. Because as adults in the 21st century we are allowed to disagree to such an extent within a certain topic, opinion or material that lines may be crossed and one may indeed feel the need to state that such has occurred. That's part of life and disagreements. But that's exactly what they are, disagreements. The notion that just because someone gets "offended" that the argument or debate is now over in favor of the "offended" is completely asinine. Now I must disclaim the hippy in me will absolutely never ever under any circumstances condone the physical harm to anyone that is defenseless and/or non-deserving of said ass kicking. As mentioned before, far too many times again and again we are seeing senseless and idiotic acts of violence committed on the sheer fuel of hysteria by the ill-informed who lack of ability to vocalize those feelings or be receptive to others.
So join in on what I am sure will be a roller-coaster of topics and conversations throughout my journey here on steemit, because frankly a lot of shit these days does grind my gears Peter Griffin style. I come from a good hearted place where everyone human and living creature on this earth deserves the ability to live amicably and enjoy their journey, for it is short and it is theirs alone and life is beautiful. But nature as we know it can be a violent force that changes her mind as she pleases. Like when a storm engulfs a landmass to the tune of chaos and destruction. Or when a gorgeous pride of lions goes from an entire day of bathing in the sun and nursing their young; to in an instant strategically stalking, attacking, and gnawing at their prey with jaws clinched tight and dripping of blood until the last breath has been taken. We must always take a step back to realize that we too are a part of this intertwining web of creatures, nature, the world and the universe by large.
I hope to engage with people, thoughts, and minds from ALL walks of life throughout the entire globe. To set the stage for different opinions to actually see where the other is coming from on heated topics, rather than just immediately give in to sensation and emotional responses when confronted with conflicting viewpoints. Who knows, you might even change your mind on a thing or two here and there. I know I have a lot throughout my journey, and that is 100% okay.
-oh, and a disclaimer to each and every futuristic label, stereotype, accusation or dumb shit in general thrown against me or anyone else that shares opinions and feedback on material.
