What has happened to #BLM is the same thing that happened to #OccupyWallStreet and #TeaParty

Genuine complaints and real grassroots movements get swallowed up by parasitical and opportunistic agent provocateurs seeking to destabilize our Republic
These people are not anarchists. They are totalitarians. Their goal is control of the means, the systems, the machines and morality. Its socialistic, communistic and fascistic in the worst ways and they're not bound by the rules the rest of us choose to play by
It's not a "left" vs "right" paradigm either.

This is control vs freedom.

The nazi white nationalists are every bit as interested in controlling everything as the so called democratic socialist Bernie bros.

This is about Statism.
Using the power of government to impose ones will on everyone else.

They all believe their version of utopia is the best. They're all willing to enforce it at the end of a rifle.

for Christmas the last 3 years, I have been equipping my children with weapons to wage battle with each other in the backyard. The wife and I have noticed a couple of things happen, as our children (both boys & girls) engage in aggressive play;

1. They spend way more time outside, because thats the only place to safely engage with the implements of destruction (they can wrestle and fight indoors, but if they want to swing swords or clubs at each other, gotta take it outside) Theyre way more active than their peers
2. They learn to pull their punches. The first couple of battles were rough, people got hurt and came in crying, but we tried not to police it for them, we allowed the natural desire for cooperative play to dictate the terms...

Seeing the constant enumeration of callings and achievements within the Church before apostatizing, and the consequent deterioration of moral standards post-church membership on display as though it speaks to some credibility to then pass judgement on the Church's doctrines...
All you have actually managed to do is convince me you never progressed beyond the conventional-morality stage of development, whereby your motivation was completely wrapped up in social approval or conformity...
you tell on yourself when you list your bona fides, assured that we will revere them the way you did of others (driven by social approvals)...

"Government shouldnt be in marriage at all" sounds like a nice, neutral place to be, but it denies the purpose of marriage and ignores the consequences to society that rearing children inside of some social experiment will have. It does affect you, and it affects your kids.
Libertarianism is lukewarm where the gospel is concerned. It's a false god that too many Latter-day Saints worship because they think it slices through social issues with some precision. It simply abdicates responsibility for societal ills
Its appealing because you get to be "hands off" in advocating that your government, which is supposed to represent YOU and YOUR interests, reflect what you know to be best. Government has a major role to play in ensuring the kind of environment that perpetuates a healthy society

A common theme among the #HeavenlyMother crowd appears to be that, feeling disaffected, they ventured to pray to someone other than God, and by golly, someone answered with sweet affirming reassurances that yes, Priesthood leaders are wrong
I love that all that is required to access this knowledge of #HeavenlyMother is to hate the patriarchy.
Perhaps it's some connection to the divine feminine suffering, as #HeavenlyMother labors under the oppressive rule of her God-husband. Maybe mortal woman must first find herself under such circumstances before her spirit is primed to realize a God after her own image

everyone is emotional first. logic comes after we have taken the emotional action to justify it.

what is it that compells you, when you read something on birdapp, to go 100% full throated attack mode if you disagree with it?
what is it about encountering a differing opinion that turns people in to total a-holes?

I have to assume that people who do this online, probably dont do this IRL to people, so is it displacement?
maybe you think this about people IRL, but cant express it for whatever reason, so you take to the internet and make it personal with people?
