On My Level [Ria]

[Ria Devore]

BL: ah, but that is the way of the universe, no?
BL: there's a balance between the leaders and the sufferers that is generally understood and accepted
BL: what i am suggesting is an overhaul of the system
BL: perhaps with castes, perhaps not, but that is not terribly important
BL: what is important is that the sufferers and the leaders are determined by personal success, which is something they can help, rather than blood color, which is something they can't
BL: the hemospectrum and quadrants have an interesting relationship
BL: they're related, but not
BL: blood color can play a part in a relationship, but it doesn't necessarily have to, and even if it doesn't, there may be others who frown upon the difference
BL: so i suppose it's a matter of the opinions of the individual rather than that of general society
BL: whereas the caste system is the opposite
BL: one's place in society depends on the opinion of the general public rather than the individual
BL: i am curious, though
BL: why do you see your blood as a weakness, rather than a strength?

BL: haha, i suppose you're right
BL: i never claimed to be unselfish, however ;)
BL: but i also believe that people's suffering is a universal constant, so there's really no point in getting bent out of shape over it, as there's nothing anyone can do about it
BL: everyone suffers
BL: i suppose you're right about relationships
BL: but i have to disagree when it comes to the general public, as the general public is generally an insipid body of people
BL: the general public may be fooled by any kind of fallacy or farce, so long as it sounds correct and comes from a powerful source, or comes from no discernable source at all
BL: it is always the conscious individual who identifies the flaws in the system, i think, as by definition, the conscious individual is not a member of the general public
BL: i do not see my blood as a weakness because my blood has no impact upon me, other than a short lifespan and telekinetics
BL: though one may argue that my blood color and short life span is a consequence of the telekinetics, but that is hardly the point here
BL: the point is that my blood color is not a weakness
BL: because i am not weak
BL: and i refuse to believe that something as meaningless as a pigment in my bloodstream can turn me into something that i am not
