Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
I think what you said is true. But you're referring to people who have an actual handicap and are discriminated against for it.
What I'm referring to is the idea of allowing myself to believe that a people group are less intelligent than I am just because they don't align with me politically or ideologically. There is no actual handicap for which they are being discriminated against, simply having a different life experience and different view point is enough. It's ironically a deeply fascist mentality...and I agree it is everywhere.
I was mainly responding to the previous comment which characterized right-wingers as having "lesser cognitive ability". Just saying that that kind of thinking sets up a "we're superior" mentality that can too easily lead to the same kinds of consequences as thinking you're superior based on race or social status. There are so many environmental and experiential factors that go into where a person lands politically and how effective certain forms of propaganda are on them. Blanket statements that characterize entire people groups as less intelligent are not in any way accurate or helpful.
Definitely! Also the Rip Van Winkle episode.
There are definitely plenty of well educated, intelligent fascists as well. It's pretty dangerous to start thinking that what separates two ideological groups is intelligence.
As a Christian myself, I agree. It's been sickening to me to see the behavior exhibited by people who call themselves Christians, especially in recent years. I don't blame anyone for having unfavorable opinions about Christians. It's no wonder, when so many "Christians" who say they follow Jesus look nothing like him. Instead of love, compassion, and integrity they display hate, cruelty, and hypocrisy. It's like half the church just lost its mind. Christians had such an opportunity during COVID to put on display what being Christ-like is all about, and while some Christians did, as a whole we completely fumbled that opportunity.
All I can say is that I'm sorry for what everyone is seeing from those people. On behalf of all Christians, I'm so sorry. Just know that we're not all like that. Not that any of us is perfect, but some of us recognize the complete and utter lunacy of it. And please know that what they're doing IS NOT what following Jesus is all about. The people with whom Jesus was harshest were the religious people who thought they were being righteous...I think the same would be true now.
Again, I'm so sorry for all of it!
Exactly. What's the issue here? This is literally the right way to do this.
"It will keel."
It's quite an impressive photoshop.
So my question is, if they reverse judge Cannon's decision to dismiss and reinstate the case, is the case back in her hands or is there a way for them to get the case reassigned through this?
Not that any of it will happen before the election now, thanks to her...but would be great to see her removed from any future proceedings.
