Lefties wish death upon Trump on Twitter, Twitter not enforcing rules against such stuff (shock)

Are we sure "becoming a true believer of non-dominant beliefs" is a healthy defense mechanism against "true believers"? I guess that's why I'm asking about how far down the rabbit hole you've fallen. Because it's one thing to be irreligious, to question if god exists, you know? And it's another entirely to become this:
And I worry about good people becoming the political equivalent of radical atheists. Because fighting the power is all well and good until you become consumed by the fight and turn into a different kind of true believer. -

I’ve seen 4 people tell you, including myself, that this political BS has you rip roaring mad. You HAVE changed. You have next to 0 humor anymore.
Maybe you might want to do some self reflection. It’ll free your mind, and hopefully help you stop being angry over something you have no control over. -

I point out how fucked up things are.
I think people find that disturbing. -

Nothing in particular, I just see some of the warning signs of the all consuming craziness I've seen other people experience (assuming you're being 100% genuine in your posts on this site, which... is a big assumption). It's probably nothing. Just... you know... be careful and I hope you don't get too invested in the idea of evil leftie hypocrisy and you being a rebel on the outside of a system rigged against you. -

Says one of the people eagerly fucking it up.

I hate bullshitters and liars. For instance, at the beginning of this coronavirus thing, the big-wigs were recommending we not wear masks, which drove me crazy. I get annoyed because I know better than almost everyone, but they don't care.
Anyway I believe you are underestimating how bad things are going to get. In fact, I doubt you realise how bad things are. -

Things aren't horrible and they're only going to continue to be just as not horrible as they already are. Any other perspective reeks of ideological fear mongering. Keep your amygdala in check, brother. -

Pathologising your opposition is a jedi thing. Sigmund Freud was a pro at it, he'd diagnose his opponents with anal fixations, or oedipal complexes. Adorno wrote about "The Authoritarian Personality" - meaning anyone who'd stand up against evil basically. Milgram had his shock experiment - since debunked, and Zimbardo had the Stanford prison experiment, which they used to prove that Anglos were sick people for obeying hierarchy (or rather, the wrong hierarchy) and needed to be reconstructed. And of course there's the whole "if you disagree with me, you hate" line, that sounds so corny it's like something out of Star Wars. And of course Palestinians only hate jedis because they're "misguided".
It's a cheap shitty trick, but one that still works well. -

Originally posted by MORALLY SUPERIOR BEING 2020 IV: Intravenous Soyposting I think probably all societies are nuts. Like if we were Chinese we'd be complaining about the people who believe Party propaganda. And you know the morons here - Techno, stl1, etc, would be suckers for that shit, just like they are for the propaganda of the western ruling class.
And if we were in a buddhist world we'd probably be complaining about how it doesn't make sense or something.
So societal beliefs and ideology and religion is retarded and evil and a threat, and we need to have self-defense mechanisms to defend ourselves from the true believers.
If you were chinese you'd support the CCP. They're the authoritarians. -
