Yes, you've mentioned that you're against free speech, the lack of which is a feature of all despotic countries, but you've yet to defend that belief in the appropriate place.
Asking us to be more agreeable is to ask for the impossible, because then we would cease to be what we are - and be destroyed.
When you say there's no right or wrong in ones preferences, then you're of course correct, because there's no moral aspect to it, but in our view, certain preferences are better than others and we're not ashamed to admit that, nor too frightened by the prevailing consensus to outspokenly pronounce it. Due to the importance we ascribe to our efforts we wish to antagonize our opposition: The ineffectual, perpetuating bar-culture, and since it is placid, conform, plain and unimaginative, we strive to be combative, bohemian, insidious and creative.
Concerning my comparison of bar chat and white noise I'll clarify: It's not that I regard people's lives as meaningless - I just don't care.

Thank you, maz, in all modesty I think so too, but I've been wondering: How come you haven't joined us yet?
Simple Zandy... I've fallen too deep in to the bar culture myself

I'm an odd peep, having my own path somewhere in the middle

AAAAAAARRRGGHHH!!!!!

Man's fault lies in his propensity towards willingly doing what feels good and his procrastinating reluctance to doing what is immediately uncomfortable but good.
Act only according to that maxim whereby you can at the same time will that it should become a universal law.
