The True Meaning Behind All The Rage
American Thinker ^ | 22 Jan, 2026 | Sally Zelikovsky

With all that’s happening in the world, why am I writing about the video of a Karen repeatedly cackling “F off” to a cluster of duck hunters? Because it proves the broader point that leftists cannot present fact-based arguments about the issues successfully. Even the few who can choose not to because the goal isn’t to win the debate but to prosecute the violent overthrow of America. Screaming, swearing, violence, and mayhem facilitate that more than a genteel conversation in the public square.

But first, a confession: I’m no prude when it comes to swearing and have been known to throw the F word around with reckless abandon. But I wasn’t raised that way.

I was raised to believe and believe to this day, even as the filthy words spill out of my mouth, that swearing is not only uncouth and demonstrates a lack of decorum, but also that it can reflect a lack of education or creativity in expression. My parents wisely counseled my siblings and me that, to be taken seriously, we needed to find ways to express ourselves without swearing, explaining that one day we’d appear before a judge, boss, or client and would have to make a convincing argument without cussing.

That sentiment was once universal in American culture, but not so today. Swearing seems to have become an accepted form of expression, ubiquitous in contemporary music, on most TV shows, and all over the internet. Our politicians and entertainers openly swear. Even our presidents!

How often are you in a public place surrounded by certain individuals loudly talking on the speaker phone, and every other word is the F word in all its permutations?

I don’t care for swearing either.

'Nations, fellow. I do, and so I say blast! Blast, I say! And, by drat, what is more, balderdash!

Boss asked me how a meeting went, told him they used the F word in every other sentence and I thought they were low IQ.

Young girls use in more in one sentence than I've used it in a lifetime. It's the trend - and it's going downhill.

The True Meaning Behind All The Rage

Mostly daddy issues. Sometimes mommy issues as well but mostly daddy issues. Not a single one of them has a good healthy relationship with their dad.

Sometimes it is their fault and other times it is because they were not raised properly.

Now having daddy or mommy issues does not make you a deranged foaming at the mouth leftist. By the time you hit your teens you are building yourself and if you decide that you will not let your parent's faults and expectations define how you will react to life then you can become a normal well adjusted person.

Or you can run around screeching at the world.

Choice is yours.

At very least, it demonstrates a limited vocabulary.

It is illegal to interfere with a hunt. Call the game warden

Words are nothing but tools and, like tools, there’s never yet been one invented that didn’t have an appropriate use.
