I can't hate authority

It's weird, even when I get screwed over, I can't find it in myself to hate people in charge.

    I have the exact opposite problem. I get all irrationally angry when I see someone exercising their authority, even when they're being entirely reasonable.

    I'm with Central on this.

    Hmm, do you mean that you cannot hate  authority no matter what they do, or that you simply do  not hate them "by default" as considered fashionable?

    Glaives are better.
    I only follow authority if its orders agree with my personal moral system. Otherwise, I'm neutral.

    I'm this odd mix of being obsessed wiht consistency and a certain level ofneatness but uttelry opposed ot the general order favoring chaos or an alternative order as Gandhi described.

    This one tends to have  favourable attitude towards authority and  inclination to obey as a default. However, it is not unquestioning. This one's respect is easy to lose, and this one is paranoid enough to  watch out for authority making a  wrong move.

    While I respect the system, I hate the tools in charge of executing it.

    I can't hate authority by default either. When I get a speeding ticket, it was my fault. I hate the situation, but that's how it goes. Of course, I do really wish authority (aka highway patrol, police, state troopers) were around for some of the jackass antics I've seen on the road by other people. But Big Brother can't be everywhere.... or can he?

    That is disturbing.

    Why can't you? Do you feel  that they still had the right, or is there something else?

    Are you eager to blame something else (happenstance, yourself) when something involving authority goes wrong? 'cus I'm like that.
  • RaddRadd

    ^^This.

    Even when I do blame authority and only authority, I don't go all "WE MUST TOPPLE THIS INJUSTICE! FOR THE REVOLUTION!" and instead try to change it from the inside. Mainly because, I really hate that sort of anarchist rhetoric.
