Speaking of Zen, he hilariously does claim to be a Buddhist. You know, despite the blatantly obvious fact that his coomer, consumerist lifestyle and the philosophies and teachings of actual Buddhist religion are worlds apart. He's a typical stupid American progressive who loathes Christianity but clearly feels a horrible void of spiritual meaning in his life so he picked one of the nice sounding foreign religions off a list in an attempt to fill that hole. As far as I can tell, he has done jack shit to actually engage with his purported religion, or if he has, it's some cheap Americanized theme-park version of Buddhism with all the deeper meaning and challenging parts stripped out because it so clearly it offers him no sense of meaning or benefit, judging by his behavior.Was just noticing that, he has a lovely yard. Koi are a great hobby pet, and they're so smart that they recognize their caregivers, so as unconventional as it is, he'd have companionship. Get some more water plants, add sitting areas nearby and some lanterns. All very affordable, and might give zenocoyote some ~Zen~ durhur
Troon ideals in genral are all about the forceful construction of an ideal self and attacking anyone who points out this illusory self image's true nature. Buddhism is all about acknowledging the impermanence of all things and the lack of any true self essence, and that the ego is an illusion that causes one's own suffering. The two are diametrically opposed. Basically, he couldn't have picked a worse religion for as far as making it obvious he's a poser goes.
