I hate people who treat them like some toys and fantasize about them. That makes me think they are in some sort of death cult. That they found socially acceptable way to love violence.

I would still get one for safety but it is a tool made for specifically one thing. To pierce the skin and rip through the inner organs of a person.

They can serve a good purpose but they are fundamentally grim tools of pain and suffering. They shouldn’t be celebrated and glorified in their own right, that is sick. They can be used to preserve something precious but at a price to pay.

    You will meet hundreds like me. Not quite me but just like me. And you will keep meeting them and they will say exactly same thing. They are me and you will meet me in each of them.

      Yep, I’ve certainly met and will continue to meet many priveleged, sanctimonious, manipulative fools.

      And when their peaceful protest gets dispersed and peppered with gunfire by armed thugs with guns, I’ll just stand aside and watch, just like they’d want me to.
