I don’t understand how given that you’ve gone through more experimental understanding of the various ways of life than anyone I’ve met, how anyone on earth could have the hubris (arrogance) to judge you as an ideologue, rather than someone with both direct and intellectual experience.

And you are, at least the personal part of you that I think I know, one of the most sensitive and thoughtful, intellectually honest, and caring people I have ever known.

So, you know, this is a sort of moral thing to me. If a good person like you can be oppressed then what does that mean? That’s f—king evil on a level that I can’t tolerate.

I mean, what does that mean for the world if people who actually try the military, living wild, joining a commune, raising a family, working in business, and pursuing knowledge are oppressed … I mean, does that mean good men are out of the discourse and only ideologues can fight the good fight?

Sorry but …. I mean, I’ve met a lot of people, and I haven’t met a lot of people like you and this really bothers me.

Delete this if you want. But I sorta had to say something…
