63. I Have Zero Respect for Delusion. The Confederate Flag is a Symbol of Nat-C Fascist Hate
Fri Mar 17, 2023, 10:10 AM
Mar 2023

As far as my ancestors that were traitors, they were traitors, and they deserved to be shot or hanged. I have zero respect for malevolence and delusion. We're on that same page.

As anyone can see from my postings and comments, I'm all for the abolition of Y'all Qaeda's Nat-C Fascist GOP.

The GOP is the malevolently depraved incestuous step-child of the Nazi's National Socialist Party.
Germany rightly abolished that National Socialist Party long ago simultaneously outlawing Nazi symbology and propaganda.

The United States ought to do the same thing and outlaw all fascist symbology and propaganda associated with all groups, including the GOP, the fascist Confederacy, and any other group that employs fascist reasoning.

Faith rejects doubt, the very basis of reason.

I reject faith in anything.

I embrace doubt in pursuit of reason. It's the very basis of our intellectual abilities. Without doubt we are left with only unfounded suppositions, accusations, and assertions.

Our country's sordid history of supplanting reason with malevolent bigoted "closely held beliefs" continues to come home to roost.

Nat-C Fascists control the House, SCOTUS, nearly all of the southern states and the majority of the heartland.

I place zero stock in predicting whether or not Trump will be arrested.
I merely watch the cards as they're played, and weigh what limited facts and evidence we're allowed to be privy to, with which I then assess whether or not that increases the possibility that might in theory occur.

And, since I'm in an area prone to rash outbreaks of unfettered violence should that occur, I typically weigh those factors daily.

It's about I and mine's personal safety. We may well travel out-of-state to a remote location if and when that does occur.

I've no desire to stick around for Y'all Qaeda Motorcycle Gangs, Crips and Bloods to fight it out in the streets.

So, like you, I have zero "faith" that reason prevails in any given situation. I merely assess the ongoing probability that it may or may not within any given situation as all the factors play out.

It is my desire that reason rule where delusion dwells, because in the absence of reason, the freedoms that we may have previously enjoyed, cease to exist within our daily lives.

Hence, may reason rule!
