Dr. LaVey strongly conveyed his belief that stupidity should be painful, and I strongly concur. The latest example of stellar stupidity I’ve noticed within the herd is net-speak, or “l33tsp33k” as it has been known alongside a general laziness when it comes to communicating with the world via the Internet. In addition to serving as a breeding ground for idiocy, it has become a crutch.
Most do not realize that while they are interacting anonymously with others on the web, that version of themselves they choose to portray is really the only version of them most of us will encounter. Logging in to Facebook, MySpace, or any of the other random social network sites will show evidence of wall-sized posts lacking in punctuation, capitalization, and line breaks. There is no consideration for the reader and it is at best a fine example of the verbal diarrhea spewed forth by the herd. They have become so lazy that they cannot even type a complete and coherent sentence. We live in an age where adult men and women type like five-year-old children because “everybody is doing it” and therefore it is okay, a prime example of herd-mentality.
But what should happen if one were to ask, or even confront one of these herdlings about their grammatical inadequacies? They spew forth their same pathetic excuses: “It’s the Internet, who cares?” Obviously not them, and why should they? So long as they have a crutch to lean on they will never put forth the effort to better themselves because that requires Focus, Perseverance, and Will. These three things are strongly lacking within the herd community. To compound the situation further, if one should suggest that the way a person writes is a reflection of their intelligence this is immediately translated by the herd brain to mean that one is implying stupidity (which in my case, typically I am) and this causes the herdling to become offended and proclaim such strong statements such as: “My writing doesn’t dictate my intelligence, I do!” Sadly, the irony of that statement is lost unto the ones who make it.
The logical Elite brain knows that presentation is key, especially when one wishes to employ Lesser Magic. If we were to go around various social networking sites and other domains of self-promotion typing like bumbling idiots, nobody would respect us. This is what separates us from them in this matter. We are eloquent, intelligent, articulate individuals and it is because we are wise with our wording and comfortable with ourselves that we are the Elite. It is because of our charisma and panache that the herd will listen to us and follow our lead, even if they aren’t aware of it. Most importantly, we actually take the time to care about how it is we present ourselves, even if it means making enemies in the process. If you wish to be successful, it means getting used to the idea that you can’t make everyone happy.
But do not waste your breath in this matter for they do not wish to hear it. Even the kindest of advice with regard to presentation of Self, verbal or otherwise, will be met with contempt. How dare you try to better your “fellow man”? Your words of wisdom will surely fall on deaf ears. Remember: do not feed the monkeys
Our own Magus Gilmore has also touched on a similar subject with regard to the herd fascination for the Internet. While it keeps these lowly creatures at home and preoccupied, we are given free roam of the earth. He reminds us to take advantage of this and aim low, for they will eat it up. It is they who forget their past orthodoxies while we are repackaging it and feeding it to them under the guise of something “new”. These retards are enslaving themselves, thus reducing our own labor and leaving us the free time to pursue our desires, goals, and dreams. I sympathize with others who are equally frustrated by the sight of these morons, but remember that we need not complain about anything to which we need not subject ourselves. Let them run about with their YouTube videos, MySpace accounts, and Facebook. Enjoy watching them remove themselves from the food chain and bask in your own glory as you move ever forward.
Stand tall and be proud, blaze a trail for yourself in whatever endeavors bring you the pleasures of this fleshly life. They will sit stagnant in their own filth while those who are truly counted amongst the Elite will continue to rise. Water seeks its own level. Fuck them and their fucking “l33tsp33k”, we do not need it.
We are the makers of music and we are the dreamers of dreams.
