The Improper Use of the Noun "Hippy"
by Deviance
Ive been called many things in my lifetime, both negative and positive, but what hurts my feelings more than anything and confuses most is being called a hippy. What is a hippy to you, what does it mean, lets see what the Oxford English Dictionary has to say about hippy:
A person who opposes and rejects many of the conventional standards and customs of society, especially one who advocates extreme liberalism in socio-political attitudes and lifestyles.
Put simply, a person who is pissed off with people and the way we live and decides to live their own way, freely.
A word often substituted for hippy is tree-hugger (laugh all you like), hippies are also seen as orators for nature, protectors of trees. Whats wrong with that, its because you non-hippies are too busy leading monotonous working lives that are the same every day, taking every speck of your existence for granted, without a care even now in this worlds dieing state you people play the role of the priest in the good Samaritan, lets see if this is a good enough analogy for you, an innocent man in this case representing the earth is walking down a dangerous road and is suddenly and unexpectedly brutally attacked and robbed of everything by vicious thieves (who play the role of humans), in this state the man will surely die after a certain but hurrah a man, a Jew, a man of the same society and religion is coming (this guy represents the non-carers) but as he sees this man no he will not help he merely crosses on the other side of the road, few people now the actual reason for this, it is because in these times Jews were very careful to stay away from people like this and for instance people with leprosy, they would not go near these kinds of people because their rules set out by religion and society said they would be unclean, these rules are the same as ours give or take a few thousand years, they prevent us or you rather from giving a damn. The next person to pass does likewise why, these societal rules, he doesnt want to be unclean he doesnt want to be seen as a hippy. But the third to pass, ah he sees and instantly believes he should help the man, this man is a Samaritan a sworn enemy of the Jews helping a Jew, this Samaritan represents us, the hippies, we break through the laws and rules set out by society just to help this dieing man, who as said represents the earth as we slowly kill it. I hope this displays well enough what we are or try to do but you strive to ridicule and destroy because we fight for your future.
This may come as a shock to you; Im going to tell you who the first man in recorded history (though there are some who believe this man to have never have existed) to be, in the principle way a hippy, Jesus. Those of you who are educated in religion may know what Im talking about, Jesus was the first Jew to mingle and interact with the outcasts of society in his time, for example interacting with lepers was seen as a way to get yourself unclean and you had to be purified, he had women friends, women were seen as the lows of society back then and stayed to themselves but Jesus talked and interacted with them as equals, never done before, this was seen as severely strange to the then people. This is what a hippy is we discard society rules and live our own way through the care of nature and such.
I have been called a hippy mostly because of my love of animals and I keep reading books like Animal tights, Human Wrongs by Vernon Coleman, Vivisection (experimentation on animals) is a serious problem and should be eradicated and I cannot understand why these experiments continue to go on while innocent animals continue to die painful horrible deaths, here is a little story about how vivisectionists experiment with perfume from animal rights, human wrongs by Vernon coleman:
If you are uncertain about the nature of vivisection then try imagining that you are taking part in a sensitisation test for a new perfume. This is a common and simple experiment.
First, scientists would shave a patch of your skin removing every small hair so that the perfume would make the best possible contact with your skin. Then they would put a large quantity of concentrated perfume onto your skin and leave it there. A plaster would be put over the test area to make sure that the perfume remained in the closest possible contact with your skin. You would be tied down to make sure that you didn't move about and disturb the experiment. Every few hours or so the test site would be inspected. And more of the concentrated perfume would be added until your skin went red and started to itch.
You would want to scratch but you wouldn't be able to. A thick dressing would be put over the test area and your hands would be tied to stop you interfering with the experiment. The itching would get worse and worse. But the scientists doing the experiment wouldn't give you anything to stop the itching because if they did they would mess up their results.
Even if you cried and begged for mercy they would ignore you. These scientists are trained to ignore such pleas. It is their job to cause suffering and to record the consequences.
Gradually, the area of skin under test would become redder and redder. Eventually it would probably begin to blister. Fluids would ooze out of your skin and drip out from underneath your plaster. You would probably notice some blood oozing out as well. Before long your whole body would probably begin to react. You might start to wheeze and to have difficulty in breathing. Your skin would start to burn and to itch and your heart might well start to pound.
The aim of a sensitisation experiment is deliberately to induce an allergy response by giving so much of the test product that the body responds violently. You would feel ill. You would probably feel nauseated and you might start to vomit.
The scientists would refuse to give you any treatment in case it interfered with the test. Instead they would simply write down your symptoms and make notes about the condition of your skin. When they had acquired enough information they would kill you.
That is one of the simplest, commonest and least intrusive experiments vivisectors perform. If you were chosen for a more intrusive experiment scientists might deliberately make you blind by sewing up or removing one or both of your eyes. Or they might drill a hole into your skull, drop chemicals directly into your brain and then make notes about your response.
It disgusts me and if it doesnt disgust you, you are simply an insensitive, cruel bastard. If you do care do something about become a hippy screw the ignorant and screw society it is your life and your planet as much as anybody elses fight for it, because it needs you.
