Extreme hatred of authority figures

[HP Lovecraft]

I can't deal with any person/system that attempts to be dominant/authoritarian towards me.  Obviously this is a huge problem because our entire society is built on a hierarchical pyramid structure (a lie agreed upon).  I am not talking about being a hardened criminal (although I'm sure people like that feel the same way I do, just to a larger degree), but basically any control system - school, work, social groups, family, government,, military, the financial/economic system, even the fact that if you want to live in a city you have to listen to noisy ass traffic and inhale pollution. I could go on. I can't fucking stand this shit! It's so offensive and wrong!

I imagine that it's an outgrowth of negative experiences with parental and caregiver figures in childhood.

 I agree... When i got my first job my boss was complete asshole he was shaming and ebarasing me in front of others if i make even a little mistake.

I thought that all the bosess in any job are like that but i was wrong.

As a wise modern sage has often said, "it's entirely possible"

Thoughts about perception are not perception. You are believing you are defining perception. The definitions are actually connotations. In other words, that is not how it is, that is how you think it is, and you are experiencing how you think it is, but believing the thoughts and thus believing that is how it is. But perception is undefinable. The simplest way to say that is rather than not knowing, you are believing you are knowing. This makes you the knower, and all that you know, separate of you, the knower. That is how you’re creating the idea you are a separate self and simultaneously an adversary of the world and other people. That is why it feels that way, not because of ‘how it is’. 

We create meaning ‘on the fly’. It is nowhere in which it could be pointed to, and is only ever apparent now, and only as “thoughts”. Perception labeled  with the thought ‘apple’, seems to define what an apple is, by indirectly defining all else that it is not. Thus you think ‘that’ is ‘an apple’, only if you believe the thought ‘apple’ is perception. An apple has never actually existed, only the experience of the appearing thought ‘apple’ and perception, and ‘ultimately’, perception is a ‘thought’, which is undefinable because ‘it’ is you. 

‘Come back’ to direct experience. You definitely know what you don’t want. Write a list of it down, and write the opposites next to it. That, is what you do want, and you can have, do and be that. The “shit you can’t fucking stand which is offensive and wrong” (to ‘you’) is thoughts, not perception. It is an apparent perspective of a world which does not actually exist. 

Choose a hopeful perspective simply because it feels better than a pessimistic perspective. What you are wanting in terms of change for the world, you are wanting so you feel better. Nothing need change to feel better, as the perspective is what you feel discord or alignment with, not a world.

I think you have failed to articulate your point effectively, Nahm. And by that I mean I don't know what the fuck you are rambling about.
