“Due Process” is about us💥 NOT about the accused person!

Self-loathing is a qualification for entry: -won’t disown the loather-in-chief -will do anything he says -won’t quail at cruelty.

“If teaching religion in school would raise morality, “Why doesn’t it work in churches?”

Whoa! “is a dangerous dictator” is strong indeed💥 And 52% agree is damned strong!📌 (I’d’ve been impressed if even 20% had agreed!)

‘Victimhood’ Has a personal ontology without which it doesn’t exist: ‘Misfortune’ cannot create victimhood without a *deep grudge* at play, And its depth is in childhood, where lonely envy found no recognition, and the rejection then festers to be inflicted later on someone else.

True But the anxiety is not just the dreaded ‘replacement,’ which characterizes all rt-wing mvts, But a deeper dismay at their own impotence as human beings, unable to believe *their own* sufficiency in a world of others, unless they demonstrate ‘winning’ to themselves📌
