You’re right; I stand corrected. And your second sentence certainly holds true, as well.

Did you see the new statue they made for George Floyd?
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

Is there any bottom to how low you can go?!?
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Re: Will this Kind of Outrage Never Stop?
Nope.
I want to thank ajax18 for sticking with us through thick and thin. He stops us forgetting that there is a large group of people out there who:
(a) Either think there really is a statue like that out there.
(b) Or find the pasted-up photo a hilarious way to 'pwn the libs, Har, Har!'
And those are the people you have to share America with.

Xanax,
If you keep holding the majority of people to the idea that if they don’t live like you, look like you, do what you do, then they are different and therefore you can’t accept that, you’re going to have a tough row to hoe for the rest of your existence on this planet. It’s one thing to have a niche interest that you vigorously debate with other interested parties, but it’s another entire matter being angry or upset over with the Other, when the Other is probably ~70% of Americans and 95% of earthlings.
What’s interesting is that by virtue of your adherence to Mormonism you Otherize yourself from the group of people with whom you identify, namely Trumplicans. The tie that binds you to them is tenuous at best, and any small deviation from the norm in context of your faith you make will alienate you from them quickly. You build your cultural identity on a foundation made of sand.

Re: Will this Kind of Outrage Never Stop?
I agree with you generally about this, but the problem is not so much anger or upset: it is more that ajax18 fears the people he posts about - blacks, hispanics, "immigrants". And fear like that leads to hate, and if he had the power to act according to his fears, to cruelty.Doctor CamNC4Me wrote: ↑Tue Jun 22, 2021 7:10 pm.... it’s another entire matter being angry or upset over with the Other, when the Other is probably ~70% of Americans and 95% of earthlings.
Even if he never gets to act out his fears and hates, he is still harming himself by letting his mind feed such emotions.

Re: Will this Kind of Outrage Never Stop?
I don't think it’s fear. More like disdain, loathing, disgust, and the like.Chap wrote: ↑Tue Jun 22, 2021 8:37 pmI agree with you generally about this, but the problem is not so much anger or upset: it is more that ajax18 fears the people he posts about - blacks, hispanics, "immigrants".
