Were over a year post-election, getting close to a year post-inauguration, and there are many who are still blazing bat-guano mad about Trump in the Presidency. Sad.
..., a twenty-something female came striding out, with her nose in the air and an aire of superiority and contempt...
That’s a pretty big leap to a conclusion.
Well put. When 50% of a country becomes utterly bat poo crazy and thoroughly dysfunctional ... the prospects re the future are not wonderful.
great buildup, crummy ending, not easy to dance to...
I give it: 3.5
Even the most subtle marxists/totalitarians/SCUMBAGS have a lot of “tells”. GOOD EYE, ‘Duke
Watch, listen.
Watch, listen.
Then, watch & listen.
I’ve seen her. She has a license plate frame
that says, “Yes, I do. But not with you.”
There have been several posts here on FR lately covering this general subject. Liberals have made it their “life’s work” to be “offended” about anything and everything. As a consequence of being involved in planning high school reunions for my HS Class (1958), our committee has had the misfortune of having to put up with two classmates who are married to each other who are both raving Liberals ( worse yet he’s a now retired lawyer). It is absolutely amazing what sorts of things set them off. The are both white, and probably don’t have any Black friends, but to watch the two of them going off on “racial inequality” tangents at the drop of a hat is a hoot!
Love trumps hate? They actually hate Trump’s love... for the country.
Then they moved to Cow Hampshire for the jobs and the low taxes.
They hate the ‘haters’, they are intolerant of the ‘intolerant’ and they are prejudiced against the ‘racists’
You can’t spell ‘liberalism is a mental disorder’ without hypocrisy.
They hate Men, they hate Whites, and as evidenced by their rhetoric every single day, they hate those who are both Men and Whites above all else.
What they want to do is spread the impression there is hate against minorities, immigrants, and women, and that it is the result of the election of Donald Trump.
This is how liberals play the game, and I refuse to play along.
Besides, they are so intellectually brain dead they cannot come up with an individually conceived idea or slogan. After all these years, when you see liberals get together, someone has to print their signs for them. They still chant the same chants such as "Hey, hey, Ho, Ho, blah blah blah blah has to go!" and so on.
I am reminded of this hilarious satirical book:
I have been to a fair number of demonstrations, and have noticed the stark difference in the way participants on both sides express themselves through both in-demonstration behavior, and the signs carried to express their point of view.
I took the time to document it a couple of years ago as shown below. I took two pictures, one showing a large gathering of liberals, and one showing a large gathering of conservatives. All images are from events I personally attended.
Here is an example of what the liberal protesters carry when they want to make a point. This analysis was from the Antiwar protesters at The Gathering of Eagles on March 17, 2007. What you see in this picture is absolutely, 100% TYPICAL.
Here is an example of what the conservative protesters carry when THEY want to make a point. This analysis was from the Taxpayer March on Washington on 9/12/2009. What you see in this picture is absolutely, 100% TYPICAL.
Conservatives not only show wit and originality in the content of the materials they use to express themselves, but also spend time making them both readable and legible. They take pride in their handiwork, and they can do this because they have a deeper understanding of the issue at hand.
Liberals often have mass printed signs that lack originality and wit in an attempt to ensure everyone has a sign (created by someone else) that says something that the "someone else" want them to express. When you see liberals carrying their own handmade signs, they often look like this, poorly lettered and shallow in content:
I have seen this contrast over and over again. What I have concluded from this is that while liberals may have some form of conviction about a subject, it is because they want to believe something they have been told without thinking it through. Most of them have an "understanding" of an issue that is a foot wide and a fraction of an inch deep. They will doggedly stay within that framework regardless of facts and logic, and their expression of that viewpoint in their signs and banners illustrates a lack of depth, understanding and originality.
There are lawn signs in my town and many of the surrounding ones with a saying such as “Hate Has No Home Here”. There’s also some kind of Arab gibberish written on them. Ever see those in New Hampshire?
The entire Leftist ideology has as its purpose making people crazy. Specifically, reducing self-understanding to absolute zero, and projecting all evil onto other people.
Thus, women who have killed several of their own babies are for “peace.” The most virulently hateful racists are “against racism.” The malevolent, dictatorial Bergoglio is for “accompaniment,” and “dialogue.” “Antifa” is the most visible manifestation of fascist street thuggery.
And if you see a “No Hate” bumper sticker, prepare to meet the most poisonously, explosively hateful person you have ever met.
Psalms 97:10
You that love the Lord, hate evil: the Lord preserveth the souls of his saints, he will deliver them out of the hand of the sinner.
There is nothing intrinsically wrong with hate so long as it is directed properly and tempered with compassion.
Bumper sticker wisdom is all that generation has because they have cast aside the wisdom of the ages.
I miss Milford. Lived in Wilton and Milford for quite a while. Don't miss the snow and cold though.
This is the result of a large segment of the population raised without boundaries, per Dr. Henry Cloud.
They think their feelings determine what is right, others have to respect the demands and boundaries these spoiled self-centered brats set but everyone else’s rules are stupid, crazy, evil.
Doesn’t it char your wick when you see signs like that? As if the person reading it does hate, and needs to be reformed by someone more righteous.
Mebbe she was just there to buy Midol.
When Lefties do not have a sense of being in charge, they conclude that the moral order of the Universe is out of whack. Socialism and the progressive Left cultural critique are their natural recourse for an explanation. In this manner a sense of grievance that arises out of personal vanity and a felt offense to status is converted into a larger grievance against society that is validated by Leftist ideology.
This is why Trump's defeat of Hillary in 2016 was and remains so distressing to the Left. They had convinced themselves that massive immigration had set demographic trends that would inevitably result in Hillary's victory and permanent ruling majority for the Left. Instead, on election night in 20, Trump's appeal to the Democrats' scorned but normally loyal white working class jackhammered into ruin the supposed electoral "Blue Wall" of Democratic states. Who knew that so many Deplorables out might be willing to repudiate their normal political loyalties?
