      @kekica11 3 года назад +24

      ​@@drttgb4955 Antifa believes that fascism and authoritarianism are bad forms of government, and we should protect our democracy from it. The Antifa movement does not have a single leader that instructs its believers, nor does it promote harming or killing specific people. BLM believes that black people's lives matter just as much as everyone else's lives, and that society should not treat them as if they were expendable by allowing them to be shot willy-nilly for holding cell phones, or jogging, or sleeping in their own beds. BLM does not have a specific leader who they revere and follow to the ends of the earth, nor does their movement promote hurting or killing certain groups of people; in fact, they are promoting saving lives, not killing enemies. QAnon, on the other hand, believes that a vague group of "Elites" and "Democrats" is feasting on the blood of children so they can have power over the rest of us, and that only one man can save us from their wrath.... This is cultish behavior. And when a member of the Conservative crew dares to make any objections or criticism of the movement, they are publicly shamed and expelled, and quickly added to the list of enemies. This is cultish behavior. QAnon believers follow a specific person like a deity, so much that they are willing to cast aside their children and isolate themselves from the rest of the world, all as a worthy sacrifice to their leader. This is cultish behavior. Listening to one man over the rest of society, and following him even when he promotes hurting other people on his behalf, often calling them out by name as targets... Is that not cultish behavior?

So much of this madness would validate her poor parenting, and support her victimhood.

    I divorced my family over 10 years ago. I tried all the strategies NOT to have to resort to that--it finally came down to just requesting that we not discuss these hot-button topics--especially politics. But they refused to respect that, and deliberately would antagonize me with taunting emails & mocking phonecalls. Visits with them were a nightmare. I finally realized that I was not a priority in their lives and made an exit. When my aunts/uncles/cousins would contact me, they told me what my family was saying about me--and of course my family cast themselves as the mystified victims. All I had to do was forward a one-word email from my sister when I had been diagnosed with cancer the year before. It read, "Karma".
    My parents have since died and no one notified me. I was left out of the obituaries. I have never met my nieces, nephews or siblings' spouses. It stings in the moment, but honestly, it's a small price to pay rather than have to endure their constant venom.
    I have since built my own family, made up of my spouse and others who have had to make similar choices. We spend all of our birthdays and holidays together and even though we may not agree on everything, we can laugh about it and love one another unconditionally. It's the family that I had always dreamed of having--and with all due modesty, the one that we all deserve.
    I am now cancer-free in all the ways I can be. Life is too short to waste on angry people no matter WHO they are, so I say if you want a great family, START ONE!

      @Calvin Parish While you are not wrong, I have not heard of anyone who believes that. It was pretty well demonstrated during the 2016 election that his campaign (not him) tried to solicit information from the Russians but were so incompetent that they failed and because they failed no actual crime was committed. It is things like that which make the arguments that trump is a Russian puppet laughable. He is not competent enough to be a puppet. The part about him being a Nazi is also partly wrong because while he has demonstrated racism and the belief that white people are a superior race and a tendency towards totalitarianism, he has not expressed anything specific enough to brand him with the Nazi label and barely with the fascist label. The man wants to be a dictator and things white people are better. While similar to Nazis those beliefs are not centered on any specific ideology. Trump simply loves himself too much. He is not a Nazi. They has a detailed ideology. Trump does not. He isn't a Russian puppet. He is not competent enough to be one. And soon he won't be much of anything, facing numerous state and federal charges, tax investigations and a loss of lenders and investors. Now that he is not president and did not try to pardon himself his near future looks bleak. Not the impeachment, that is a sham but his real legal troubles are going to be his true focus in the next few years. We won't see much of him I don't think after too long. It has already been a month and next to nothing. The quite is nice.

Falun Gong cried religious prosecution and fled to America, and America welcomed the snakes into its home. The US government then pumped money into Falun Gong, hoping to use the cult to undermine China. Instead, Falun Gong has been using the US taxpayer money to build up its infrastructure and media network inside America. Yet another blowback of the US government.

Yet these people just... walk right into it. American evangelicalism is full of slimy televangelists and false prophets, there's a whole ecosystem of people out there who say they channel God and see the future, and who can do miracles. Lots of people said that it was God's Will that Trump won the election, so clearly he did. Churches with thousands of members saying that there will be miracles to make sure that Trump wins, even after he lost.
      It's almost like these people don't actually follow their faith and instead see it as a cultural totem that justifies their prejudices or something. Which is crazy, it's not like that ever happened in American history or anything. Imagine how crazy it would be if, like, Christians were burning their holy symbol to show people of a certain skin color that they weren't welcome here. That'd be crazy! Jesus sacrificed himself to absolve all of humanity, how could the symbol of his sacrifice be used as an image of racial intolerance? It's good that never happened. Imagine still belonging to religious traditions that embraced that.

      Then I went to college and learned about how seriously really smart people have taken their faith over centuries, and that it always hasn't been super reactionary or as stupid as the American Evangelical movement was. I stopped being an edgy atheist and started being a sad one. Christianity was one of the only faiths with a message of pacifism baked in. It used to inspire some of the greatest artistic works the world has ever seen. But now, it's used as a bludgeon for violence and inspires Thomas Kinkade paintings.

      That part!
      I'm as mistified as the rest of us about how can these people believe in Q - trust every utterance or 'interpreted' statement from him/her (bc the followers are actually their own indoctrinators - they call themselves 'digital soldiers' - they look for clues online to what Q is trying to tell them - so really any thing their own mind comes up with is Q's utterances).....I also couldn't understand how could they blindly trust an unknown, unseen living being - w/o thinking maybe Q is the pedophile cannabil etc (after all, never seen em, how do they know Q's background?!)...but then when I thought about the evangelical piece - it's real easy that they could morph Q into a Jesus extension for themselves (it's like Q is whatever its victims make Q out to be - some Q devotees are religious, others arent)......
      But in all this - since it's not a brick&mortar cult - the leader is unknown, unseen - hell, Q could easily be a group of pranksters or one lone loser incel in his mom's basement -- since there's no tangible person like Jim Jones or Rev Sun Yung Moon etc -- and all the devotees still live in their own homes, have their money and possesssions - the part of them being able to be controlled to the suicide end almost every other cult comes to -- I couldn't see it..
      BUT -- look what they did already - they've killed their family bonds and relationships - some of them stormed the Capitol - some of them would've gladly executed govt officials that day too. So - yeah -- all this Q has to do is start talking martyr sacrifices by mass suicides -- and this daughter's worst fear is completely reasonable.
      Scary stuff....

      There won't be a suicide pact because these Q followers are being robbed blind, they couldn't keep throwing their money away if they were dead.

      She should say that because unfortunately that is the reality. And they will take their loved ones with them if it means being saved! Some guy just told us about his mom who fled to the woods because she thought Biden was coming after her. She had to be rescued and committed. It’s already gone too far.

    People tend to forget that it's okay to be disappointed in our parents as we get older. We're all brought up to believe that our parents are infallible and all knowing, but when we realize that they're just a human as everyone else, it can be bothersome. And as much as they might be disappointed in us as we grow up, it can be hard to realize that we can be disappointed in them too.
    When we think about removing "toxic" people from our lives, we never think (or want to think) that it might include our parents. And although in some cases it is possible to repair some relationships with mom and dad, to realize it's better to stay away from them can be hard as well.
    Young people need our support, love and a shoulder to lean on at times like this. Only time will tell how it'll turn out for them, but it's important to stand by their side until then.

      They murdered my family, possessed them after and stole my inheritance and money.
      Then drugged my sister consistently until she ended up losing herself and was raped, beaten, abused, teeth knocked out, controlled and handled as a prostitute, and worst part of it all....she ended up getting 5 charges against her after they did this to me and my sister.
      This is hell.
