# Geek
|
||||
|
||||
Geek is a wannabe [nerd](nerd.md), it's someone who wants to identify with being smart rather than actually being smart. Geeks are basically what used to be called a *smartass* in the old days -- overly confident conformists occupying [mount stupid](mount_stupid.md) who think [soyence](soyence.md) is actual science, they watch shows like Rick and Morty and Big Bang Theory, they browse [Rational Wiki](rational_wiki.md) and [reddit](reddit.md) -- especially [r/atheism](atheism.md), and they make appearances on r/iamverysmart -- they wear T-shirts with cheap references to 101 programming concepts and uncontrollably laugh at any reference to number [42](42.md), they think they're computer experts because they know the word [Linux](linux.md), managed to install [Ubuntu](ubuntu.md) or drag and drop programmed a "game" in [Godot](godot.md). Geeks don't really have their own opinions, they just adopt opinions presented on [9gag](9gag.md), they are extremely weak and don't have extreme views. They usually live the normal conformist life, they have friends, normal day job, wife and kids, but they like to say they "never fit in" -- a true nerd is living in a basement and doesn't meet any real life people, he lives on the edge of [suicide](suicide.md) and doesn't nearly complain as much as the "geek".

# Rights Culture
|
||||
|
||||
Rights culture is a [toxic](toxic.md) culture of the [law](law.md)-obsessed [capitalism](capitalism.md)-plagued western society in which common things such as [repairing things](right_to_repair.md) and [defecating without being watched](surveillance.md) start to become privileges which common people have to "[fight](fight_culture.md)" for instead of doing useful things. It manifests in language by much more frequent use of the word "right" ("human rights", "worker rights", "men's rights", "animal rights", "I have a right to sleep", "I have a right to not listen to you", ...), reflecting the subconscious shift towards accepting that "what's not codified as a right is implicitly forbidden", creating a new [bullshit](bullshit.md) field of various "[fighters](fight_culture.md)" for all kinds of rights like the right to wipe one's ass with his right hand, right to wipe his ass with the left hand, right to receive what one pays for, right to not be tortured for arriving late at [slavery](work.md) etc. The solution to such a shitty state of society is of course not in codifying more rights and "fighting" for them, but rather replacing the shitty [underlying system](capitalism.md) which keeps turning common things into privileges; however it's also the solution people will never choose because people always do the exact opposite of what they should.
