william Burroughs hated liberals.

[@peterboshoff6376]

He also hated conservatives.

[@igormendoncacanga2569]

@@peterboshoff6376 He hated the polarized complexities of social engineering and systemic biases. One of my favorite writers... much of what he wrote is actually showing to be quite prophetic, along with the works of Philip K. Dick, George Orwell, Aldous Huxley, J. G. Ballard and this very unknown writer of transgressive / weird fiction called Jordan Krall who's written books such as The False Magic Kingdom Cycle, Humanity Is The Devil & Beyond The Great Bloody Bruised And Silent Veil Of This World. Much of the latter writer's work is fundamentally Gnostic and tackles themes related to esoteric metaphysics (something which Burroughs - who influenced Krall - also explored in his works) and the paranormal level of Quantum Physics. God bless you mate, much love and respect.

I would think he hated liberals and conservatives, as both are systems of control. “You can not like freedom of sex and freedom of firearms at the same time” “you can not belong to our club if you do not think Exactly like us” type of bs, that keeps people under the boot and without true freedom of speech.
