I only killed with wonder, not with hate. I do not regret having avoided institutions, because they bugged my ass, and for me, (I have such a tiny ass,) it was the right thing to do.

Well better to have had your tucus bugged than buggered. Is that a word in Canada or just in the UK?

This repetitive loop is heading to a repetitive loop.

Crooked corporate and political lawyers use courts of law to accomplish all sorts of evil. Hateful Muslims... yada yada yada. 

Your assumption that hate is evil is one that you inherited from the Bible, making your own belief... well... a non-empirical neo-Abrahamic sort of tradition that you accepted by blind faith.

The Bible says, "If anyone hates his brother, he is guilty of murder." If you can find any older teachings against hate, please share them with me so that I can stand corrected.

People use the bible to justify hate constantly. If you aren't aware of it then stop cherry picking it.

Not embracing moderation is when I know eating that next bit of food or sugar is going to make me feel terrible, but I eat it anyways and suffer the consequences later

I crossed that wall in my own way and tried to leave a trail of breadcrumbs here. I myself don't even know how I stick to it sometimes. I'm 14kg down in 8 months, I don't get tempted by the lolly isle anymore. I feel like it started when I had confirmed I had something to lose in the future regarding my health, and I think it helped to stick to it when there was something else I had to lose I knew I wanted to keep.

But with food that's holding off from doing something, not the same as stepping forward and starting to do something like exercise, but important in its own way.

A buffer only makes moderation easier to maintain, it doesn't remove temptation, or access. I don't have monastic values in mind for all this. Just moderation.
