This is indeed a very interesting time.

Normie is now nearly synonymous with what we used to consider fringe elements.

Some very left leaning ideas are now mainstream.

And the conservative, right leaning ideas are now counter-culture

It all seems to me to be the polar opposite of the 60's and 70's

It is like the cultural poles reversed themselves

How did this all come to be???

Every. Freaking. Word. 🎯Honestly, after some comments from Normlanteans (not a compliment but a nod to Atlantis in the bad sense) on the previous post, all I can think is that there is no reasoning with crazy. It's as if we woo folk are traditional (in the sound, based sense) and counterculture, free-thinking creatures simultaneously. Wonder if the shift in poles is emblematic of the shift in people? As above, so below. Or something like that. Not nearly as smart as Clif, so I'll leave the answers to him.

you know, I was thinking the same thing.

but not smart as Clif either, so perhaps he knows more?

or it is all influences from the previously referenced Bug

So you think you are normal because you love that people are being murdered by the shot? I mean, that actually seems crazy to me...but you do you.

You should try to stay off social media until you can understand English and the written word.

I understood your words perfectly as did everyone else.

Tell yourself whatever makes you feel better.

It is not about 'feelings' as I am not an emotional thinker like you are. It is about what you said and the words that came out of your fingertips altering the way I think about your position, comments or advice. If someone says that they believe that the shots murdering people is 'a good thing' I am going to remind people who they are in the next comment section so that no one takes what you have to say seriously. It is for THEIR benefit. Not yours.

I understand why you say this, but I don't think you have the intent exactly right. No one said it'd be a good thing for people to die of the shots,....not really. She was just venting her frustration at the Liberals pouring into her Conservative little peaceful town. I would feel that way too, if they moved here. And I can understand that we won't 'miss' them if they die.

Do we hope they die? No. No decent person wishes death on any one else because, as Gandalf said,...'Many that deserve Death live, and some who die deserve life! Can YOU give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out Death in Judgment. For even the very Wise cannot see all Ends.". Gandalf was almost as wise as Clif! :)

Well I object to it. Think about how many people in this thread are suffering and mourning their losses and deeply grieving over loved ones (children, spouses, parents) and extended family (15-20 or more). Then to have some ASSHOLE come into the thread and start talking about how great it is that their people are dead?

This is worse than the 'liberals' she objects to. I know many good, conservative, salt of the earth people who got the shot. They weren't Marxists...just not wise and I know for a fact that not many people had access to the information I had access to, so saying they did is a LIE. I am not going to fault them for it, I am going to mourn them for it because they are my people and they were murdered in cold blood. She is acting like an enemy of our people celebrating their deaths when this is one of the worst possible moments in our history. I don't have words and this has nothing to do with you but I feel that she is a traitor in our midst.

How many times do we have to be betrayed by foreigners before we can spy them out by their behaviors and their celebrations of our people being murdered? I just can't imagine doing this and not being an enemy. It is the words and deeds of the enemy; not one of us. I am always on alert for our enemies because we need to learn them, learn their behavior and learn their lies and manipulations of humanity. Anyway; that is how I feel about this situation but I am not telling you how to feel about it...I am just commenting. I am sick of our people being murdered.

Again, I urge you to seek help AND to be careful of libel.

You can sue me if you want but your comments are available to everyone in the previous thread. You have no grounds to stand on since it can be read by anyone.

Seek help and stop harassing me over things you don't understand.

Expand full comment

No one is harassing you. This is the internet and you don't have to be here if you don't want. People can't 'harass' others because you have the power to turn off the computer and walk away at any time. This is your decision to be here and engage. I would have thought this elementary level of logic would be obvious to everyone with a brain. But maybe not.

Having grown up in the 60s and 70s I find myself wondering the same thing!
