"orang kafir tuh. mereka tak tahu."

they can be ruthless sometimes. some malaysians. hopefully not everyone. also unforgivingly self-righteous, and yet they live in ignorance to just about anything else unrelated to their just cause. some don't know when to shut up. some really need to get out more.

for people who live slightly outside the norms of conservative normalcy, this poses a strange dilemma. these days where we are valued based on how we present ourselves and what we do, it is no wonder why there is very little admiration for the simple act of kindness.

we live in this state that evades and represses our real emotional needs. on one hand there is the moral camp that lay the foundation on how we are supposed to live. julangkan budaya timur. persetankan propaganda barat. (siapa yang berpropaganda sebenarnya?) and on the other hand, a most basic basic form of humanity that does not conform to simplistic demarcations.

why should we be surprised when tens of thousands of our youth chose to attempt risky stunts on their honda motorbikes? taking control of your life is the ultimate form of freedom. freedom. a basic human need we constitutionally possess, but one that is sadly poisoned by our very own society hell bent on their hypocritical judgments.

You know what they say... the two most common elements in the universe are Hydrogen, and human stupidity.

That said, ah, is there anything quite so tragically amusing as the hypocrisy of the self-righteous? ;)
