His thinking and way of seeing everything is all about winners and losers and coming out on top. His Queens roots have made him view the whole world as a streetfight, in which a winner never backs down, walks back what he says, or loses face. Talking the talk and walking the walk. Even though Richie Rich probably never duked it out with anyone in his whole sorry life.<br /><br />If Sniffy condemned or disparaged or disassociated himself from his thugs and the fascist militias and the brawling, gun-toting, flag-waving Storm Trumpers, he would lose his "street cred" with them, and with the rest of the mouthbeathers and yahoos and sheeple who comprise his base...mostly undereducated racists and haters...white men who've never progressed beyond high school. <br /><br />The Proud Boys are just a politicized Fight Club...aging has-beens or never-wases with pickup trucks and firearms, who want to play Rambo. Frat-boy wannbees who never went to college. This outfit is their frat. Now they are famous, on the world stage for a few brief minutes. The Bullying Brotherhood of the Bullet. <br /><br />Eventually, the Proud Boys will go down like the Klan went down, through the justice system...or via armed Federal response...if they get too nasty and too deadly. And if some Nasty Boys become Dead Boys in the coming months? Tough. They began it.

Oh, thanks a lot, Dictionary . com. "Cathexis: the investment of emotional significance in an activity, object, or idea." Sometimes there are words that I can't really define, but I see occasionally. I think this one may be completely new to me. <br /><br />"So what it is then?" To me, Occam's Razor suggests that Hair Furor fears that if he were to condemn white supremacy with any vigor, he might lose votes. I don't actually believe that such would be the case -- the Proud Boys know who's on their side regardless of what's said at this point. But I think it's safe to say that crossing his fingers and mouthing the right words, after all that he's said and done, is not gonna get him any *new* votes, so he'll continue to dance with who brung him.

Mental illness left untreated, for years, covered up by enablers and star-lovers who have given him not only permission, but encouragement, to continue his act. Now it’s too late, past the point of even trying, to think he can change.<br />Even the most pathologically sick individuals can seem intelligent at times. But the illness always prevails. Trump will never have the ability to keep quiet during a debate; it would be like trying to keep water from pouring out of a turned on faucet.<br />I’m no psychologist, but that’s the only conclusion I can come to. The alternatives would be even more terrifying.SandyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14070366627628604352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-90379674958654275692020-10-01T10:27:16.984-05:002020-10-01T10:27:16.984-05:00Definition of cathectic: of, relating to, or inves...Definition of cathectic: of, relating to, or invested with mental or emotional energy.

Too many in the media , in our government and just regular citizens don't seem to truly acknowledge the real danger to our liberty and possibly our lives Donald Trump and his inner circle pose to the people of this country. many Trump supporters seem to realize how poor a president he is but support him because it pisses off liberals. imagine granting a tyrant who will have a negative affect on your own life just to anger the people who support the notion of equal rights for all. this is not going to end well . clearly even if he loses the election . we live amongst shit heads. some of whom are our friends, family and neighbors. <br /><br />my son labored for a bricklayer I've known intimately for years over the weekend and when I asked how'd it go. he told me he didn't know J was a trump supporter and he nearly walked off the job after hours of listening to him rant about immigrants, blacks, gays and women. he said I want to like J but there's something wrong with him . yes son, he's a bigot. my son said I think he's dangerous. I think so too. FMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06829632906445535928noreply@blogger.com
