It't just a shame, if you have to turn your back on your asserted political direction, or your asserted subculture, just because those people that are in it are so stubborn, narrow-minded and willing to perceive anything that makes you, in their eyes, be no-one that belongs to their roundel.

You don't seem that angry too often and you said it, I agree that a single person isn't going to be able to change what is wrong in the world. I remember being misanthropic while talking to my ex girlfriend and she was similarly inclined and we were driving by crowds of people and I was talking about how idiotic they seemed and she said something like maybe someday I should kill one, but she didn't say it that way. I was shocked because I have a lot of compassion for individual people. I don't think I have considered killing someone. I just mean it as a critique of society. Also, I work with children and they deserve a lot of chances to do better. If I worked with wall street bankers or lawyers or violent criminals in jail maybe I'd feel differently.

About misanthropy I find a big prejudice or mistake about it is that you actively ought to hate people, like wanting to kill them and stuff.
I don't know why it is only mistaken for that; at least I have the view about it - if you hate people, if you think about wanting to share your rage with them, you don't just hate them, you only want a relationship. And you don't get that relationship that you want with them.
If you really don't like them, maybe mock them, but leave them alone. Don't care too much about them.
Wanting to shoot them all is only going to get you in trouble and costs your freedoms.
By the way, how much ammunition you wanted to waste? There are 7.4 billion of them in the world, a few ten million add on top every year. That's like a Sisyphean task to be wanting to do that. And meteors don't come along all the time too.
