What makes us so different?

[Requia ☣]

What, exactly, makes us so different than every other modern counter culture that thinks it figured something out the rest of the masses didn't?

[A.N. Other]

Style, attitude, generally higher IQ, being actually able to rip apart other modern counter culture, being centralized on a tenet that allows a lot (sometimes too much) freedom, and some other things that are just as much of a lie as everything else I said.

[Cainad (dec.)]

At no point in our "agenda" (to use the term so loosely that it nearly loses all meaning) is it necessary for members of our "movement" (again, to use a term loosely) to have faith. Determination helps a lot for individual projects, but no one has to actually believe that nonsense is salvation.

Edited to add: Also, a generally high ratio of hotness. And we don't argue over what to wear.

[PeregrineBF]

We aren't a counter-culture. We aren't anti-culture, because that requires defining ourselves in relation to the culture. We're pro and anti whatever-we-feel-like. This tends to change rather frequently, and be different for different members. Most counter-culture movements focus on a few aspects, and then conform to those things. We do to, but when we notice them we tend to try to stop doing that, or have a good reason to do so.

every reply so far has been empty posturing.

the answer is simple: it's because we are right, and they are wrong.

Yes, that's the TROOF!!

We aren't really faith or conviction oriented. Convictions are automatically suspect, and taking anything seriously is dangerous and often a side of grey-face. Our agenda is preventing the problems caused by having an agenda.

[tyrannosaurus vex]

...and taking anything seriously is dangerous and often a side of grey-face...

Eris just called, she said she thinks you need to live through a few more years of President Bush.


Thanks a lot.

Who says we're different?

[Dido]

some people who are just like us and therefore can judge the whole thing in a balanced manner.

[P3nT4gR4m]

WTF is with this "us" bullshit?

I don't remember signing up for anything

[Faust]

Even stuff that nearly everyone agrees on gets contradicted at some stage and we get to hammer out weak points.

Its not that we are right, we are just better at pointing out why they are wrong.

[Payne]

Because ROGER is different, and his mind control laz0rs force us to be different with him.

Because we hate ourselves and want everyone else to die.
