Systemic indeed, but I don’t think what we’re witnessing can be described as simply as, “stupidity”.

If I’ve learned nothing else over the past eight years of the Trump-Era, it’s that there is absolutely no correlation between academic, engineering, scientific, or mathematical aptitude, business acumen, or musical genius - and wisdom.

My theory is that America suffers from an epidemic of a generationally inherited, self-assigned, and false sense of entitlement, handed down from narcissistic ancestors who unapologetically built America on stolen land and human and environmental genocide.

Their descendants from every corner of America, and passed-down through every generation, are taught bigotry from birth, and neither recognize, nor accept any version of life without social superiority and privilege.

@GeraldoRivera Man, you're confused...

[Bobby Düthü @bobbyduthu]

@leonajj Thank you LJ!

@SenTuberville We lost our country the minute the Supreme Court decided to give Donald Trump dictatorial power, and he surrounded himself with unqualified walking-disasters like you, who don’t even understand, much-less believe in the fundamental values of America.

[Bobby Düthü @bobbyduthu]

@SenAdamSchiff Thank you.
Now raise hell about it until the deed is done.

[Bobby Düthü @bobbyduthu]

@MikeLevin Thank you.

@glennbeck @realDonaldTrump MAGA is a cult of emotional-confusion, made up of people with adult bodies and adolescent minds.

[Bobby Düthü @bobbyduthu]

When you really think about the specific matters about which MAGA is so upset, the entire MAGA Movement is just a war on maturity.

[Bobby Düthü @bobbyduthu]

@SpeakerJohnson You suffer from clinical delusion.

The Trump administration, of which you are a representative, is the most amoral and un-Christian-like in American history.

If you were the benevolent follower of Jesus you claim to be, you would have stepped away long ago.

But you didn’t, because you’re a fake-Christian and political performer who stands idly by while the administration you represent violates civil and human rights, and threatens to take control of other nations against international law, thus jeopardizing the safety of the entire world.

You’re a moral coward, who in no way represents the teachings of Jesus.

@RandPaul Another gross distortion and manipulation of the truth by drama-addicted-Republicans.

[Bobby Düthü @bobbyduthu]

@RepJeffries Is this supposed to be a solution?

[Bobby Düthü @bobbyduthu]

@RepDanGoldman @StephenM Nor, apparently, can we do anything about it.

[Bobby Düthü @bobbyduthu]

@StephenM Instead of using it to ruin America, if you channeled that imagination in to writing fiction, instead of the world’s most hated wanna-be-Nazi, you’d be a best-selling author.

Because X is committed to conflict, you’re in my feed a lot, and being far more liberal, I’m typically on the other side of most your arguments.

In this case though, I find myself relating to your opinion quite strongly.

It’s very common for me to encounter people on the left with whom I share most views, as well as some on the right with whom I share very little, who seem to have an unhealthy relationship with the full emotional spectrum.

That is, aggression, anger, or even assertion, expressed in any degree or fashion above the verbal volume or tone of innocuous conversation, is frowned upon as if some kind of biological affliction.

We saw this personified in real-time when Jeb Bush allowed himself to be eviscerated and his career ended by Donald Trump in front of the entire world during the 2016 presidential debates, because he doesn’t believe in-kind retaliation is appropriate behavior for a politician.

I guess it’s in the rulebook.

Regardless, like you, I find this perspective problematic for anyone, and distrust anyone who never gets angry.

Turn the other cheek is OK once – but if you’re being badgered, everyone should have the wherewithal to defend themselves by any means necessary.

Anything else is an excuse, or as you say, an act of cowardice.

Passion promotes intensity, intensity promotes anger, and tempered anger is a legitimate and healthy form of expression, that used appropriately can increase the effectiveness of your method of communication.

I often say, if you never get angry about anything, you don’t care about anything, and if you don’t care about anything, how do you maintain an identity, or sense of purpose?

@rabbriansamuel LOL!

@annamlulis Whoever he was, if he was, he left the world in the same chaotic-cesspool of violence and greed in which he found it.

Sitting idly by for two-thousand-years as his children suffer, is hardly the heroic instinct of a father, and certainly not the act of a, “savior”.

[Bobby Düthü @bobbyduthu]

@dbongino This is the real-time equivalent of randomly reminding liberal defenders of democracy the United States is a, “Republic”.

It’s a non-solution to a question nobody asked in the first place.

[Bobby Düthü @bobbyduthu]

@SenTuberville Yeah – and Vikings!

We can’t let those blond-bastards leave engraved rocks all over our landscape.

We need legislation to ban Viking-Rocks NOW!

[Bobby Düthü @bobbyduthu]

@SenJohnKennedy And you are at the top of the list.
