Going after @Gregforcouncil as some alt-right white nationalist is as stupid as going after @hankrsmith for the same thing
This has nothing to do with their politics (which are fine) & everything to do with their faith
Its bigotry masquerading as concern. They hate our faith
ANYTHING they can do to give the church a black eye is on the table, and theyll use #DezNat as some manufactured boogeyman to accomplish it
These are grown ass adults throwing temper tantrums
Religious bigotry is religious bigotry, no matter how badly you want to wrap it up in this "anti-fascist" facade
To these people, God is a fascist
In fact families are fascist
Eternal truths are fascist
Unbending commitment to your faith, is fascist
They point to a handful of #DezNat accounts with salty takes on a variety of subjects and say "SEE?! THEYRE ALL FASCISTS!!"
Because they know your collective power, kings. And they're terrified of it.
They're out of options. So they're tagging the poor sap who runs the social media account for gyms and clothing companies to say
"YOU BETTER NOT INTERACR EITH THIS GUY, HES A LITERAL NAZI!!"
Ho-lee-sheit. These are not adults. These are not rational people
These are people with a religious axe to grind because as long as this truth standard exists, they have to wake up every day and consciously convince themselves of a lie over and over and over again
They're not "fighting nazis"
They're fighting what remains of their own consciences and they're miserable because of it
There arent enough people to cancel in the world to make that little voice go away

So there I was, minding my own business on day 3 or 4 of a meth induced "walking coma", checking from behind the miniblinds at every car that passed by my house to make sure it wasnt the po-lice or some sort of body snatching skinwalker...
paranoia had riddled my mind. I lay in bed and could feel my body shutting down from exhaustion, but my mind refused to shut up long enough for me to get some sleep.
Every shadow in my room concealed some terrible entity bent on my destruction...
I was tired, I was sick and I was rapidly losing my mind.
A few weeks earlier I had met some dudes in Dallas heavily involved in the trafficking of a certain party drug, and has some friends who were moving down there to set up a "business"
I hate what's become of the counseling profession.
We went from powerhouses like Ellis and Perls to woke SJW affirmation only nonsense and wonder why our collective mental health continues to deteriorate
Counseling was designed with SOLUTIONS in mind. The modern theoretical fathers were in competition as to who's approach was superior at getting you patched up and back on the road as quickly as possible....
Now we have therapists happy to engage you indefinately and act like that isnt a total self-own and a display of your own incompetence
These apples look great. This is part of why we do GMO's in the first place. We can engineer the "perfect" apple, controlling for things like weight, shape, color and shelf life. They then get a beauty treatment of wax and polish to finish the look...
and after 2 months, they look just as good as when I bought them. But how will they taste? I'm not really willing to find out by biting into one after being in my fridge for so long
I understand support for law enforcement, but when push comes to shove, they will do as they're told by whomever they believe is in charge.
Law enforcement attracts a specific temperament, and it's one that defers to authority for its decisions.
You will not see officers bucking the pecking order in any significant numbers. They will not defy their departments, and departments will not defy their cities, DAs and judges on the whole.
Rationalizing what are obviously emotional reactions.
I call that "kicking it upstairs"
It's a refusal to acknowledge that sometimes the emotional brain is in the drivers seat and you cant bear the thought of that kind of loss of control
It represents a failure of will, and for some people, that's a soul crushing kind of blow to the self-confidence.
"There is a perfectly logical explanation for why I feel the way I do, it is in no way related to my own emotional baggage but a reasonable and thought out position"
Nonsense.
You're having a melt down like the rest of us and are clamoring for ANY sort of post rationalization so that the story can be anything OTHER than "I'm not as in control of my feelings as I thought I was"
Theres a joke that it's the bassist in the band that no one knows or talks about who disappears behind the singer and guitarists, but have you ever been the keyboardist?
In college I was responsible for the keyboards AND the electronic drums in my band. Everything that wasnt guitar, was me.
One evening out with friends someone suggested "we go to some guys apartment and listen to Tim's band practice tonight"...
That was MY apartment, and Tim was my bass player. They suggested we go listen to my band practice 🙁
