Schönheit im Chaos

I started off with the need to find people that agreed with me. So I went to college and enrolled into a Political Philosophy class. The point of that class was to discuss political system from an ethical and moral stand point.

We started off with dictatorship, monarchy and anything that has only one man in power. Easy to bash on, that didn't survive a single class. I mean: "who is this guy and what makes him think that he can control us and make decisions?". Now Plato would argue that if that person is a Philosopher King, then he would make the right decisions. Well Plato, good lucking finding a Philosopher King in this century. Even if you do find one, good luck convincing him to be selfless to rule justly.

We then went on with communism. Now as much as it is a good idea, I don't believe people are selfless enough to be able to abstract of their own desires for the good of a better society. Plus, the brutal revolution revolted my fragile inners. Now that I think about it, those sitting in favour of communism had do idea what killing people for the greater good was - nasty consequentialists. As Kant said "we ought to treat humans as ends and not as means". Socialism, a more peaceful version of communism was hardly any better. It had the same problem of individuality loss. Yes, very beneficial to everyone, now tell me how it benefits ME.

Democracy was supposed to be the end point. But even there, I found that democracy had multiple unforgivable flaws. First of all, democrats are sheep. How could one blindly follow a mob in hopes of getting the best? Is the mob really capable of deciding what is best for society? A mob will use scapegoats. What about minority rights? What about urgent matters? We don't always have time for negotiations. This made me wander for answers and as someone who enjoys saying "no", I decided to try and say no to governments altogether. That turned out to be anarchy. Now, I solely believe that governments are a scam and laws are an indicator of our lack of morality. I'm not advocating for chaos; simply because chaos is a lack of order. Anarchy isn't chaos. Anarchy is order in total freedom with no leaders, a common will and no loss of individuality

I was taken away from my usual duty of being nice to girls and telling stories at the campfire. It was time. We had to go. After marching 15 minutes in almost complete darkness up a hill in the woods I was left with one instruction: "Scare them". Nothing new. The usual drill. I had developed a way to "see" in complete darkness. All you need is a laser pointer. By shining it, you remain invisible yet you see movement. I plunged into a bush near the trail. I was laying down, listening. After thirty minutes, I started sweating. The high pitched buzzing of mosquitoes dulled my hearing senses. At least, I heard movement. The air got thicker, warmer. I felt a warm breeze. Something was wrong with that air though. I was laying down and that breeze came from above. I decided to shine my flashlight quickly, mainly to spot and kill that annoying buzzing creature. When I flickered on the light, I saw the horned beast's head right above mine. It yelped, hopped over me and ran away in the darkness. Shaking, I got up took a few steps and felt an invading urge to get something down on paper. I could hear the first group of children that I was suppose to scare. The mosquitoes were more annoying than ever. I could sense the blood flowing through my skull with each heartbeat. I resolved to let the pass without scaring them. So when they arrived I shined my flashlight to my face. The two kids yelled in terror. A droplet of blood spattered on my flashlight changing the light from white to red. The creature probably injured me during its jump. I fell to my knees. The last thing I remembered was the softness of the lichens against my cheek and the smell of moisture. It was going to rain.
