The Color Purple, Not Green, And To Each Their Orange

        Perspective is an often overlooked term in the battle of ideas, especially when discussing things such as: consciousness, morality, and determinism—but, it is easily one of the most important. Life has a way of changing individual humanity in such a way, that, like fingerprints, no two human experiences are the same. How you experience the world and how I experience the world are bound to be vastly different, even if the vast majority of our experiences are coming from a relatively mutual perspective. Siblings, for example, are often treated very differently with huge impact in the long run—and sometimes, those differences are so subtle at the time, that you may not have noticed them for years. How we are treated affects how we treat others and ourselves and our situations. Zealots, the pious, and unfortunately some nonbelieving professors—and libertarians, it must be said—are ahistorical bigots in their own right often neglecting the past for the present future; often to their own benefit, even in hypothetical situations—which is all that libertarianism is: hypothetical nonsense. Because, without perspective, you have no past; and with no past, you have no future—if you take away someone’s history, you cut them out at the roots.
