i hate the average person i see where i live. lumpy suburban kulaks who only notice you if they need to call the cops or complain to your manager, and ignorant bigot trailer park dwelling workers with no personal hygiene. someone i know works at a gas station and the mens room frequently lacks soap because no one orders it, and no man that uses the bathroom ever tells anyone it’s out, they just go about their day with shit covered hands. every man entering that bathroom on one of those days has shit or piss covered hands. my mechanic acquaintance is a misogynist predator of high school girls and refuses to wear gloves at work (his coworkers call them “b***h mittens”) or to wash his hands, he like 1/3rd of all the people here have permanently black hands from the car oil/grease. not because they can’t afford gloves or water or soap, but because it’s “unmanly” or something to practice basic hygiene. almost every house here has an anti-abortion election sign up, there is a major catholic church downtown putting the signs up everywhere. i have seen homophobes protesting against trans rights at random gas stations, not even in a public foot traffic zone.

anyone that can be normal here is a soul-less ghoul person or a philosophical zombie with no internal beliefs, opinions, or passions. if you did have a soul once the suburbs have taken it, the very architecture is hostile to the human spirit.
