What I long for, in my simple-mindedness, is people who go against the grain. Who do not get tattoos and loath hanging-out tits. Who do not want to be coooool and can actually blush.

I long for people who are plain and honest. But at the same time intelligent and wide awake. Thinking beyond the stories told to them. People who live in reality and believe their own eyes and ears. Who are wary of ideology spouting love and caring.

I long for people who can take the pain of experiencing what fallen creatures human beings are without thinking they are the exception.

I love people who became cynical and suspicious by so many lies but can still cry and are deeply moved by others’ pain. I love people who are not ashamed (any more) of their authentic nakedness. I love people who treasure truth above all else.

Postscript: I do not like the Irish Ian creature.

I thought that I should inform you that I am currently jailed in Substack gulag. 'Temporary disablement'. They are coming for EVERYONE. Satirists, polemicists, bloggers. Live every day as if it was your last. Unz probably had a part in this. You know he is an agent, don't you?
