White Supremacy racism and misogyny are sadistic and corrupt, yet fixing that sadistic corrupt system that WP today did not create equally demands they relinquish the ill-gotten benefits of that macabre system; something that has always been

@SamGrishamArts deferred via a number of false premises with a primary one being "I didn't do it" which speaks to none of the responsiblities to fix it.
But that's exactly the point of spouting such nonsense in the first place.

@BwanaLawFirm@duty2warn It's my understanding (tho you'd know way more) that it's an impeachable offense for a SCOTUS nominee to lie to congress when being vetted for an appointment and if found to have merit that is grounds for removal. What I don't know and can't find is if any of the rulings

@BwanaLawFirm@duty2warn pertaining to case law they lied about could be reversed after the fact. I'd think despite any reasonable interpretation of questions asked during the current case, until a ruling over turning Roe v. Wade is handed down, there is no way to find impeachable grounds as the

@BwanaLawFirm@duty2warn ruling itself would be the decisive evidence. I also believe the SCOTUS 5 will stack the deck meaning Roberts (no one ever believes me when I tell them Roberts is positively diabolical but he is) will write the majority opinion in such a way as to appear to have arrived at a

@aspieleftist I had one of those too! But I'm not necessarily talking kids at home (0-18 yrs old). Surely no kid then or over 18 (and they are kids to me till about 30) ever badmouths their parents/grandparents or parents/grandparents generation; not to friends peers teachers colleagues

I can guarantee you whether it's deserved or not, that is a universal thing that goes on.
Why? Because we are all looking at a different landscape in time and none of us did this perfectly and we've all failed to do a good many more things

@KemtrupTweets@Roland_SKS I think arguing or disagreeing with how a patient describes or defines an experience is wholly unproductive and sinks therapy because now you're getting into your clinical philosophy vs their lived experience. Therapy and healing are ultimately subjective processes sometimes

@KemtrupTweets@Roland_SKS predicated upon relatively objective events and sometimes intrapsychic ones. If you've ever sunk deep into depression, had your body & mind hyjacked by Bi-polar mania/depression decompensated into schizophrenia type episodes, been homeless that's truamatic tho many therapists

@KemtrupTweets@Roland_SKS would not regard those events alone as truamatic; BUT THEY ATE and the fear of loosing the ground you later
