説明 | The fellow in the pink stripes is Nassar, who crashed at my apartment the night before. He's pretty cool, as far as young Republicans go, and I was able to talk with him about free culture for a while. The most frustrating thing he claimed to believe was that working in the "public interest" is futile and silly, people should only work for their self-interest because anything else is stupid and ineffective. He extended this to free culture. I was able to get him to see some of the flaws in that position, and to his credit he had a pretty open mind and was more than willing to talk. However, that was only one of several cringe-worthy things that he said in my presence, he also said classics like "people should be willing to give up their privacy for national security, if you're not doing anything wrong what do you have to hide?" I was also able to help him see the flaws in that position, with the help of a couple others. Still, the fact that a relatively reasonable person like Nassar would be so eager to sacrifice our civil liberties, given the history of our country and the world, really creeps me out.The girl I am sitting with is Ellen, who reminds me a lot of someone whom I can't place. She walks with crutches and a fake leg, because she's a "congenital amputee" and her other leg hasn't grown since she was born, so I guess she superficially looks like Ann from high school, but that's not who I'm thinking of. We talked a bit about disabled people's rights, Catholicism (which was on everyone's minds given that the conference took place at this seminary) and everything else under the sun. Groovy person. |
