I feel that my very existence is being threatened every day now in this time of social distancing and discourse. To me, it's my inalienable human rights, which I feel are at the most significant risk for they are seemingly treated as if they're unimportant by those who have entered implicitly into a social contract to govern over me without harming my freedom. Unfortunately, it has become painfully apparent that there are even those within my own family who have a contemptuous attitude in this regard.
So, I'm at a precipice dealing with the high cost of living in the Silicon Valley region of California. And I've decided to become a minimalist in the preserved central area of Wisconsin once again as it was for me as a young child, with the deliberate intent of doing it in a very romantic transcendental way. Do you believe that I'm an anarchist or just a very sad old Necedah, WI expatriate? My hope is you'll recollect neither about me.
The Socratic paradox: "I know that I know nothing" (Wikipedia link)
Even a forest has the right to life!
( "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?" is a philosophical thought experiment that raises questions regarding observation and perception. -- Wikipedia )
( If this reasoning is unclear to you, with regards as to why I am currently planning my geodesic dome homesteading endeavor ( my "Walden" if you will, with an igloo tiny dome home ), then please visit my page on Henry David Thoreau )
“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms...”
So, you don't understanding the philosophical meaning behind the Matrix movie.
