This is from The Atlantic.
The Atlantic is filled with crabs, garbage and miles of emptiness.
It is also the name of an ocean.
This kind of thing happens when one side (the left) attempts to muzzle any kind dissent while ramming their policies down our throats by court order.
Cnn I get the cliff notes on this exercise in navel gazing?
No mention of Christian Roots
Be kind, one to another,
Tenderhearted, forgiving one another
Do justly, love mercy, walk humbly
What is seen in society now is a catastrophic failure of primary Virtues,
Gratitude, Humility, Prudence, Fortitude, Courage, Justice, Honor
Temperance, Chastity, Charity, Patience, Kindness...
Replaced by the false gods of “Values”
And they wonder why they reap the whirlwind
Rage?
The author of that article probably thinks he’s a genius for the wonderful insight and beatiful writing.
Not at all. He is full of cow muffins and has completely missed the point about this country. I invite him to go to the m*slim country of his choice and experience rage.
TL;DR. Article really could have used an Executive Summary.
“Larry Cagle wasn’t wrong to be livid at a state government that refused to allocate funds to educate the next generation of Oklahomans; his mistake was succumbing to the view that the only way to fix the system was to destroy it.”
That’s really the question, isn’t it—was he mistaken? The author assumes his answer.
If the deep state takes down Trump and we’re back to the progressive “ignore the deplorables” and “fundamentally transform America” as usual BS, it’s not obvious that the system is fixable.
That could be said of many countries.
Those that have achieved the most and stood out the most and those that have achieved and stood out the least.
There may be a middle ground of peaceful countries that have never experienced a revolution or a civil war, but what they have contributed may be hard to say.
anger is the appropriate emotion to feel when someone has treated you unfairly, or has taken advantage of you, or hurt you.
Inappropriate anger can be due to:
should statements
labeling
mind reading
all or nothing statements
overgeneralizations
The above comment is Charles Duhigg's first lie.
What would be unusual?
Unusual would be if the community chosen had been filled with liberal know-it-all puffed-up liberal 'elites'.... Plumbing the deaphs of negative emotions in traditional neighborhoods is common... it's the ONLY place 'embarrassing emotions' are ever studied. Get that Duhigg?
IT'S THE NORM... the opposite of 'unusual'...
How much anger and rage do NPR listeners experience? Can we go full voyeur on phony elites? NOW THAT WOULD BE UNUSUAL.
To add insult to injury these puffed up overpaid so-called intellectuals never look at themselves unless they're checking out how altruistic humans can be...
Do the same rage study among Harvard elite communities and I'll be impressed with 'unusual'.
Charles Duhigg swims in the delusions of out-of-touch 'elites' - he has no clue how silly this piece appears to traditional Americans.
