Hey man. It was a great time, until those gatekeepers that live across the street were just standing there. Just watching me go down on Nicole.

Gatekeeping

The act of controlling participation in a certain group or culture, it is becoming increasingly common in the punk subculture where some "punks" claim that you can't be punk if you're conservative, despite not understanding that punk doesn't care about left or right, but it's more to do with challenging the status quo irrespective of who's in power. Long story short, it leans more towards anarchy. In the Metal Community, many individuals whi listen to extreme metal will call those who listen to glam metal or hard rock gay or say it's pussy music and those who listen to them are not allowed to listen to extreme metal. Myself personally, I like to have the best of all worlds.
Gatekeeping is for idiots.

Why are they gatekeeping non-binary lesbian? Because the men think they are better than me and the women think they are too good to fuck me. The only way to maintain their supposed superiority is to DEPRIVE ME of money and credit. They are using moral superiority as justification for DOING THIS TO ME.

Hym "And BEYOND THAT, they want to use the surveillance apparatus on other people. Or hide the fact that there have been negative results. They are likely making a faux-consequentialist like 'even if he's right, it's better if...' or 'Even if this is wrong, it's better if...' ALL THE WHILE maintaining a mandatory willful ignorance regarding the consequences. They want to keep me imprisoned. But the is no crime. They don't accept culpability in the consequences. Consequences the may include the death of a child. Why? Because having a powerful voice the expresses views that are antithetical to THE CHURCH (Jewish or otherwise) needs to be prevented. And even the Atheists are in on it. Because they have taken a position of 'Non-resistant non-belief' and that allows them to operate EXACTLY LIKE THE CHURCH.
Without having to espouse the churches rhetoric. What's the difference between Matt Dillahunty and Mike Winger? Nothing. They live the exact same life. The Atheists don't like the conclusions I've drawn OR how I've drawn them and even if I am factually CORRECT they would rather 'someone like me' live in squaller than succeed. So, live in squaller I will. And so will you. Because squaller is fine to an atheist. It isn't homeless. If have a right to a home but if I lose it, what does the atheist do? Nothing. I have a right to health care but if I don't receive it, what does the atheist do? Nothing. I COULD do it myself. But then I wouldn't be beholden to them. They need the manpower to push their policy. So, if the state doesn't do it for me, I don't get it. Doesn't matter that I am only unable to do it myself because of the gatekeeping. The people they pity deserve it more in their moral calculus so I don't need it. And won't get it. Isn't that weird? The people who believe that I have a right to health care and that billionaires are robbing the lower class are perfectly fine with a billionaire robbing me and the right they think I should have I do not have?"
