It's embarrassing for our country that activists have infiltrated nearly every cultural and government institution, the economy is shit, housing is out of control, and yet the politics being discussed are about the middle east
Familiarity with rational arguments. They haven't done any real research, they haven't ever really heard an alternate point of view.
They are isolated and coddled. It's sad and we pity them.
The cultists leftists have demonstrated that they are so unfamiliar with the mainstream positions among those with Amy conservatives views that when they encounter the reason and arguments made by conservatives they can only interpret it as hate.
They don't know that their own..
Around their racist uncle.
They are the racists now. They are the unreasonable.
Not all of them. Most pay very little attention and figure that if their liberal friends declare there is a genocide, then there must b3 one. They do no fact checking.
The activists have no...
#1 makes you more productive.
#2 makes you more independent.
a critical mass of men with these beliefs makes the world go round

@DearClimate I'm wondering why no one is attempting to arrange this?
The displays of Christianity should be getting bigger.

It's frustrating to have pretty clear understandings of what's happening and pretty simple explanations for what's better. And yet we're in the mess we're in

The human brain is actually a very finely-tuned, sophisticated machine and conditions like depression+anxiety are reactions to very real environmental conditions and stressors, not "chemical imbalances" that you were randomly cursed with, you solve the symptoms by solving your problems, therapy/meds are actually counterproductive because they primarily numb and distract you from whatever is causing your issues
