No wonder we get along, I like your sense of humor. Dry, literate, and quietly savage.

My purpose is to inform you as best I can, not to make you see anything. I just want to give you information. I see sadness and loneliness because I sense you are very resistant to what I have to say. Naturally I do not know what personal issues you have that causes you to react strongly to what I say, but I do know why you would choose to see only the positive self love you have for yourself because I am motivated to do the same. For me, however, that option was not sustainable. I had a great deal of help and an unquenchable pain. I had a terrible need. This is how I first became aware of unconscious assumptions and how all my opinions about the world were bunk. Since the place that I arrived at ended my existential suffering and freed me forever from it, I have a great with to share it with others, but not a need that you see. It is more like a being duty to give the best I can. Whether you take anything or not is up to you. As it happens then, I care not that you find me tedious or anything else. I respond to what I feel.

As I believe that it is you who mostly tells me that what I post bothers you, I am forced to take that as your hidden self calling to me. I feel a moral responsibility to answer that call. But since another part of you wishes to challenge what I say, I cause the part of you that you know to be you to be upset.

I guess, then, I will respond eventually if you want to challenge thing is say, since I see that as emotional need, but I won't engage you otherwise or for a while in the first case just so you understand I have no such need.

Edit: I should have added I have said what I said above because your post, while I am sure it is heart felt, doesn't seem to be addressed to me but to somebody else. It seems deeply private and personal.

Well Moonbean they just don't get righter than you. Nailed it!?

If you were where you say you are, there is no message to share. Shouldn't you just be being at this point?

So... You've indoctrinated yourself with psychology 101, Spirituality for beginners and the abstract art of philosophy. ... keep going, you'll eventually come full circle (or not, you enjoy this high immensely).

Personal? That amused me. You don't know me of course but I'm an open-book, full-disclosure kind of chick. On occasion my husband wishes I wasn't. I regret nothing. Let go of pain when and where I am capable. I embrace my education, I do that because I want to not because I have to (though doing so makes the most sense).

Here's the thing, if you must feel sad or disappointed for me (and almost the rest of the human race) power on dude.

I... will hope something I've said to you about moving forward without judgement or hostility will seed within you and grow to a point you can't ignore. <--- to give credit where credit is due, you are not hostile with me. Thank you for that.

Ill be the Apache Attack Helicopter then. We should start a gang.

I'M IN!

What should we name ourselves? OpaqueWater or Bloods-in-the-Crips? I'm open to any suggestions of course.

I was once in a gang with my 4 sisters, we called ourselves The Friendless. We did lunch and played Texas Hold'Em.

I really like the thoroughness and technical accuracy of that console command. Also, I'm flattered and glad to have an appreciative audience.

I get what he means but Dems are still people even though most of them have gone completely insane since Trump won.

Most dems have gone insane?

I'll take a citation for that or are you the only one who is allowed to use hyperbole here?

Pretty typical ideas someone's ego produces when their mind fails at producing any factual counterarguments to what it was informed of. By typical I mean also easy to spot in any number of conservatives I've similarly informed of facts.
What is typical is this post where you express your superiority to conservative thinking and how you do what you accuse others of doing, deflect the fact that your so called factual arguments are only your opinions dressed up as facts. I told you, for example,, that your notion as to why conservatives turned on liberals was the loss of the Soviet Union as an external enemy, the theory proposed by the neuroscientists that identified the differences in liberal and conservative brains and their thinking, without mentioning that the first time, and your insistence that couldn't be right. When I countered with the evidence that I was not giving my own opinion but the expert view, you accused me of using a big word like neuroscience to hide behind. All you do is deflect factual information and then counter it is others who do that. Then you become more irrational when that is demonstrated. You are not really worth anybody's time when you persist in that childish behavior. Had you less contempt for what you do, you might be able to see that is exactly how you are. This is conservative denial, protection of the ego.

If you two would like to psychoanalyze each other, please go right ahead. However I am not quite making the connection to the topic of this thread which is the contempt that Trump's kid has for Democrats. TBH, the contempt flows both ways therefor I will not judge him harshly for that. I am sure there are plenty of other things that he can be held to account for.

The important point for me would be to understand just what you mean by insane. I think you may mean holding opinions you do not share. That is not what insane means. I would suggest that to call people insane because they have different political opinions would be closer to insane than calling people insane because they do not share your political opinions.

For example, I don't think you are insane because you can't use a word rationally. I think you have moral values that are unconsciously rooted in assumptions that are not real, I agree with you that moral values are good, but I disagree with your certainty that what you actually call the good is actually good. I think I also agree with you that liberals are reacting irrationally when they react to your wrong ideas of what the good is by seeing you as evil, because it isn't you that is evil but what happened to you to make you believe with certainty. You and they have clashing certainties you wouldn't have if both knew you don't know anything, that your beliefs are programmed to protect your egos. The truth isn't this or that but the integration of opposites at a higher level of understanding. Nobody wants to see that because false notions are what protect the ego.

When these deeply denied facts are revealed publicly, they will be immediately attacked. The ego is the denial of how bad we feel and the truth is that is what we feel. It would be pointless to tell people they are actually living in hell were it not for the fact that ego death takes one to heaven. Good luck to you.

The issue for me isn't Trump because he isn't posting in this thread. My concern is the damage people who are reading this thread do to themselves with their contempt of him exactly because, as you said, the hate flows both ways and all hate is self hate. If you do not judge him harshly you will not judge yourself harshly and that is my aim. Your capacity for suffering has make you wiser than most. You can identify with how it feels to be the other. Poor agent has a need to hold the other up to contempt because he holds himself in the same contempt. That is sad but it is also bad for others because it keeps the hate rolling.

The issue is so many people are willing to entrust the office of President to someone who obviously is a lunatic. These same people refuse to acknowledge that Trump is a lunatic. Its not Trump's fault. He is who he is.

For me Trump being a lunatic is close to stating that 2+2=4. There are a mass of people willing to believe 2+2=5. I have no idea where to go from there.

I'm sure that this isn't a totally unfounded assertion that you're using so you don't have to think about the criticism, and I'd love to see the evidence you have backing it up.

They would have already been "insane" if that were the case.

Yo, bucky, how's that guarantee about drumpf not golfing as much as Obama working out for you? Do you remember?
member? member?
He'll be just as much your president as he will be mine. Enjoy the ride.

He isn't lazy, that was simply false though. I guarantee he isn't going to golf as much as Obama did.

Looks like, according to you, they were.


From may 2016

Trump haters for the most part have gone insane and cannot be reasoned with. This is happening on the left and the right.

You have about 100 uses of the word "insane" and most are used when people disagree with you.


Now you were saying?

He wishes he were a member, listen to that sweet juicy intel over a dreamy candlelight dinner.

How long does Trump have at this current rate to get impeached and canned before he's golfed more rounds total than Obama? I'm pretty sure that he's on a pace where he'd beat Obama's two terms total in one, so he's got to get the boot.
