Clockwork orange 1971
It is just 50 years ago that people knew that evil existed, that it must be honored and given space if you want to keep it in check. Now is the time for morality again – the time when absolute evil appears. It is within you like a parasite, devouring your brain, your mind and your decency. It has always been the case that absolute evil grows where people believe they are good. And in the end it will devour us... oh, as always.

Why Stupidity Is More Dangerous Than Evil via Lifehacker [Shared]

Dietrich Bonhoeffer knew more than you or I are likely to ever know about about the line between stupidity and outright evil. The Lutheran pastor and theologian had a front row seat as he watched the Nazis—history’s evilest stupid people (or stupidest evil people)—ascend to power and come to rule through terror during the 1930s and ‘40s.

In a letter to his friends, family, and followers written while he awaited execution at Flossenbürg concentration camp for his role in the July 20, 1944 assassination attempt on Adolph Hitler, Bonhoeffer detailed his thoughts on the root cause of the moral and intellectual infection that resulted in the Third Reich. His conclusion: It’s the stupidity, stupid.

[P] I'm at a point in my life where I'm 100 per cent convinced that neurodiversity is the shackles breaking, and the introspection floods in. "Why do I do this? Why is it desired that I do this?" Contemplative rumination just seems to be more of a norm for neurodiversity. I can spot it on the Internet so easily. Hiverarchy just parrots things, they have this database of responses, which is why original thought utterly confounds them. I see this all the time.

[P] I look out at my little lawn and it's such a beautiful, incredible thing! I wonder how many species of fungi and beetles are lurking there? I know the barbarians of the USA force people to mow, but where one has the choice to rewild and doesn't? It's just evidence that neurotypical hiverarchy are denied introspection, their shackles keep their heads empty. If that wasn't true? There'd be a lot of: "Why do I mow/strim?" But that never, ever happens.

[P] I still think it's funny that, as an autist, I'm described as a creature of routine. Am I now? You mean like neurtotypical hiverarchy who maintain lawns as a routine? Who force others to maintain laws as a routine? I've always seen neurotypicals as the creatures of absolutely mindless routine, just obeying, following their parameters, doing the "done thing," and never questioning it or thinking about it. That was always such an anomaly.

[P] Let's see...

The evils of lawns:
* Biodiversity loss;
* Horrendous resource waste (water/gas/electric);
* Pollution (noise/carbon);
* Loss of natural surrounds (proven to be good for mental health);
* Screwing over pollinators THAT WE NEED.

Pros of lawns?
* Really mindless fire prevention when better options exist, so... not much of a pro;
* Err... that's it.

Lawns are an objective evil forced by the mindless routine-following robots of hiverarchy.

[P] I admit, one thing that makes me feel really good? I look at out back lawn and we have two young trees out there and so much foliage! It's going to be a home for so much life. That hiverarchy is programmed to have the inverse reaction, shackled to that reaction, unable to have an original thought about how beneficial my rewilded lawn is? It proves that hiverarchy is a parricularly nasty, parasitic form of evil. Good doesn't want lawns, that much is obvious.
