When empathy is decoupled from reason, this is what you get. Everyone wants to burnish their liberal bona-fides (for social status/power or self perception) and nobody wants to actually deal with the problem.

When empathy is decoupled from reason, this is what you get. Everyone wants to burnish their liberal bona-fides (for social status/power or self perception) and nobody wants to actually deal with the problem.
Instead we get "redefinition" of the problem. And people willing to put up with absolutely appalling stuff because they want to label themselves something or see themselves a certain way. It could be happy horseshit but it gives them self-esteem and group identity. I'm a progressive, I'm not racist/sexist/whatever the label of the week is. And MOST OF ALL, I'm not a republican!
NYC will have to fall out of love with all these moronic, misguided attempts at public safety reform. Starting first with the phenomenally stupid bail reform. Which could have been a good thing of it were properly executed. Which it wasn't. Because of course it wasn't.
It's gonna take a while. There's an old saying that it's easier to fool somebody than convince them they've been fooled. I figure on at least half a generation.. 10 years at least. Though at the read this generation is having kids it may actually be 15;)
So yeah. Buckle up. And protect yourself. And hold onto the dear things in your life. And enjoy your time on this earth. Let the idiots buy into their happy horse shit. It gives them self esteem and group identity. And nobody is giving that up anytime soon.
And one last thing.
May God bless Moose. May he have cuddles and walkies and limitless treats where he is now. RIP
Group identity is an extremely important point. Safety, belonging, meaning, validation... all things humans crave can be supplied by group membership. I suspect a lot of church goers aren’t deeply religious but love the community. It’s explains why this ideology has a quasi-religious aspect. It’s belief that matters not reality.

I’m MAGA, love Trump and am not “racist, sexist, etc”. Fuck off
Hater
Proper term now is "Ultra MAGA"
although I have been pushing for "Super MAGA"
Super Duper MAGA
Double Secret MAGA. That’s me.
I like it....try it on Twitter and measure the response
I'm not on Twitter. I can't plug into the "hive mind". : )
smart move, I tried Twitter for about 5 minutes...hurt my head too much.
I understand. I was describing how progressives think, not how you are. And I also voted to Trump..twice.
Most progressives don’t think the way you do. At least the ones I know.
Sorry. A bit touchy with the vilification by my “betters” and wide spread FBI raids.
