I knew it.
God damn, I knew
it.
Although, he did warn us about his impending deceit,
remember?
This first part is loaded with delicious potential for
analysis and discussion not only in the topics that he brings up (and,
ultimately, rejects to be his true feelings), but in his adorable mind-game.
At first, I was going to mention how it could have been a bit
frightening that I went from finding him to be a loony to agreeing with a
majority of his false viewpoints. Was I supposed to slowly realize I am an
insect or an underground dweller? Am I one of the many, the profile fit for the
responses he has pre-written, or am I just like him, a spiteful person who lies
and causes harm and vomits information? Am I both?
Was the point for me to be lead to ask these questions?
Honestly there is so much to talk about that I do not know
what to think. His concrete points are easy to side with- I either agree or
disagree- but this whole other realm of analyzing the text is what has me in a
tizzy.
Though, isn’t it humorous that I am desperately trying to
find the predisposed reaction expected from me, rather than riding on my actual
emotions simply because I cannot put a label on it? This is rather annoying
considering his whole lecture on free will.
My interests have been peaked. Your move, Dostoyevsky.
