I think this was a joke . <| sep |> Where you from <| sep |> What the fuck is the government doing with all that helium ? <| sep |> By individualism , I don ' t mean an extreme version of it . You were quite vague and your usage of the term also hints at a level of understanding that is limited to popular culture . I just mean not being so judged when I get a slightly different haircut , or dye my hair a slightly different color , or spend my money slightly differently from the masses . At the risk of being a reductionist expletive redacted the issue seems less about being judged and more about negative judgements in general . You don ' t want other people to police your behaviour . Which is understandable , but also unrealistic . More so in societies like ours . People will judge regardless of where or when you live . Also your way of referring to the rest of society as masses comes off as dehumanising and shifts the blame onto them for not accepting your every choice . I just mean accepting a different identity as one of your own . No one is obligated to accept a different identity . They sure as hell don ' t in other parts of the world outside of major metropolitan centers and even in those centers people are either too busy to judge due to the rapid pace of urban life or because they ' re infused in their own niche communities to bother with outsiders . There are more similarities between London and New York or Tokyo then there are between London and some backwoods villages in Kent or Isle of Man . I think the bad outweighs the good . And that ' s not a surprising conclusion to arrive to when one uncritically assimilates ideas and notions from Western thought without bothering with skepticism or introspection . I mean it ' s not a conclusion that I disagree with the bad does in fact outweigh the good . It ' s just I feel like most people come to the right conclusion for the wrong reasons . We ' re dealing with a Kuwait that suffers from collective posttraumatic stress disorder and no one has bothered to check in with the doctor . Modernity and Capitalism which both precipitated the rampant segregation across class , religious , ethnic and nationality , the flaring of sectarian conflict thanks to the minor coldwar between Saudi Arabia and Iran , the failing political system , the dependency on Westerners and Western thought with no regards to the indigenous those are quite worrying . It ' s not a surprise that people are going to judge and their judgements will be negative . We lash out against dissenters in times of crisis . And when has Kuwait not been out of a crisis ? What ' s happening here is too restricting . Way too restricting . Relative to what , or to whom ? What value you judgments are you making or assimilating uncritically to make these judgements ? Since Kuwait isn ' t very accommodating when you ' re not with your family , getting kicked out here is way worse than if it happens to an American in America . True , but it ' s not something that ' s tolerated to the same level as it is in the United States . To expel one ' s one kin no matter the reason is seen as anathema . The fact that it happens here boggles the mind . I doubt you people actually care about my personal issues . I do care , but that ' s because I love being in everyone ' s business and ruffling their hair .
