I love how just recently you posted about insults and tried to stake out the moral high ground for yourself. Then you follow up with this beauty. You're down in the gutters with everyone else.
nope.
the "progressives", self-styled political activists are determined principled liars. Practically every word in their rhetoric is used to claim some virtue or appearance of good where the truth is the opposite. Varnished evil, whatever spin anyone tries to put on it, is evil.
When the "progressives" who used the word "turd" above.... and some who used it might imagine they are even conservatives or whatever, I know.... use that word it is part of a systematic dehumanization of people. It is at the least bullying.
We know that every human occurrence of genocide, and every lesser degree of denial of human rights, is justified by the perpetrators with rhetoric, labels, slurs, or whatever useful hate/dismissal/degradation there is that promises to effectively justify the actions of one group, believing themselves the betters, against other groups whom they characterize as less somehow. And yah, the word "evil" comes into play.
It is the process of objectification of sexuality that justifies doing abusive things to others in that department.
It is the process of dehumanization that justifies genocide, and many other abuses.
Many humans are Marxist believers, or socialists or any number of other political identities. A lot of people do stuff we can call "evil" for whatever reason, and a lot of people occasionally ponder their actions or words and feel they have been foolish, or even moronic. Even imbecility is virtually a universal element of life for all humans. The words have fair use in describing specific things about other JFC members.
But calling anyone a "turd" is off the scale objectification/dehumanization towards the person so called..
I used to like some of the stuff you write, and maybe still do sometimes. But I think becoming a "mod" stultifies members in here.
It's like all the mods, except Moe, have undergone a special course in re-education along common core lines to make sure you can no longer actually think.
Well, everyone can have a point of view or opinion. But nobody, not even a US president, is a "turd". So why is our self-professing "liberals" are going so hard on the track of Hitler rhetorically?
Propaganda through the ages has always reduced to the simplistic formula "Us good, them bad" just before the deplorables are rounded up and shot and bulldozed into the trenches.
