Hi,
I’m Freydis, I wrote the article ‘Capitalism’s Cockroaches Stage Feeding Frenzy Aboard USS Titanic’. I operate two major Internet sites: Counterorder.com and Holology.com. The CounterOrder is about active nihilism (Nihilism), and draws inspiration from people like Michael Bakunin, Nietzsche, and Sergei Nechayev, while building upon historical connections to the social and political revolutionaries of 19th century Russia.
Holology is about everything else, it’s a framework that includes nihilism under the Department of Destruction, and many other topics that I’ve written on. Some parts are extreme, some parts are creative, and parts are even contradictory. Holology is meant to enlighten and serve as an intellectual resource that others can use to synthesize their own views and ideas and, hopefully, to construct a positive methodology for life.
My turn-offs include religion, nationalism, authoritarians, and all the stupidity that goes along with similar garbage. Turn-on’s include upsetting convention, shattering beliefs, long walks on the beach … well, you get the picture.
Anyway, you’ve got some great articles here with a refreshing diversity of topics. Subversify Magazine has great potential and I wish you the best of success.

Hey Freydis,
Welcome aboard, it's nice to meet you. Thank you for the interesting contribution. We are always curious about our fellow writers. The internet is a wonderful way to network and meet people with the same interests.
Why is religion one of your turn-offs? Just curious since our country is literally run by laws that have been derived from religion. I recently had a discussion with Stacy regarding religion as the theme of an interview with a psychology professor. Stacy didn't much care for the religious aspect of the interview. I am intrigued by it. Science tends to gear one away from the belief of religion. Yet, the psychology professor is Agnostic Theistic and had a very passionate outlook on the topic. I thought his point of view would be interesting. But no longer feel confident about it. It's a controversial topic.
Well I understand your other turn-offs completely, but society does conform regardless. You take care and looking forward to your participation on this forum.
Maya

What, no centerfold!? Thanks for stopping by Freydis. As its been revealed to you, our writers aren't exclusively backstroking in philosophical nihilism We are friendly lot none the less. I hope at some point to quiz you on how you fell into anarchism just to compare notes.

I left my computer too long and had to sign in as a guest to save my post.
Hello Freydis. This is Karlsie speaking. I want to thank you for a very lively and interesting contribution. Please keep that arm chair warm as your special throne for our philosophical discussions. As Stacy has already pointed out, we're all somewhat anarchistic about fitting into a catagorized viewpoint. My own philosophy lies within a view of independence and self determination. I don't mind examining religious issues as long as there is an understanding that religious preferences are as much a part of self-determination as whether or not you wish to marry. My admiration lies in free thinkers; from Benjamin Franklin to Hermann Hesse, from Jung to Thoreau, from Voltaire to Dostoyevski. My first interest, obviously is literary. I believe rules were made to be broken, but first you must learn all the rules to effectively and adequately break them.
