You’re welcome. It provided a considerable amount of entertainment on the day it happened.

Really I'm just copping a tactic I've seen from the left: assume anyone who's Christian is a homophobe from the outset. I just changed it from the religion backed by Jesus to the religion backed by Mohammed.

It's not suspicion, it's a discussion of principles. I don't think that it's going to be an issue of "cHrIsTIanS rISe uP" but that with an overlaying loyalty to another, often opposed worldview, by definition in any conflict with the two the overlaying loyalty will take precedence in terms of loyalty and action.

Consider it like the issue of loyalty of immigrants to the home country vs. the new land. Sure, we may not be invaded by Uganda anytime soon, but does that mean that a loyalty of immigrants to the home country over the nation they immigrated to is acceptable?

As a whole, America has been defined by it's adherence to the ideals of personal independence, in that any individual can live comfortably by their own work and merit regardless of background; and freedom of expression, in that anyone may express any opinion and or idea freely without state repression. People may argue that there are other virtues - but these I think have been constants with contest, from independence to modern times.


No, actually. Lip service was paid to those ideals, but they were not upheld in the physical realm.

I would regard anyone who regards their race above their nation the same way, tbqh.

You make it seem as if one should have loyalty to the nation above all. That seems a rather jingoistic sentiment in my opinion.

By nation, I think he mainly means the state. It is very Jingoistic, just like the Jacobins were.

Edit: I do not support Christianity or religion in general. Do not think this is a a response to CM's views on religion.

Joohan wrote: In acknowledging the founding and constant virtues of the United States, you often despair the history and traditions with which prior generations of American viewed these virtues - which in turn would come to influence how modern generations view them.

The idea of personal independence and freedom of expression are, in it of themselves, not unique to the United States. Other states across the world also uphold these values. What makes them unique to America, is how we ( as a nation ) have interperated these virtues throughout our history.

Upholding virtues alone is ideology. Upholding your nation's interpratations of these virtues is patriotism.

We've interpreted them very poorly throughout our history. Am I to look back at the murder of Native Americans who not only sought peace, but integration with the US as an expression of our values? Is that view patriotism? What about the effective prohibition of black people to vote? Slavery? Segregation? Woodrow Wilson!?

The fact of the matter is that as America is predicated upon independence, it would only make sense for an individual to interpret her values as an independent soul. By this standard, one might say that adhering to traditional interpretations for their own sake rather than because of a genuine attachment to them is far more unamerican.

I don't think that would be needed. In proper right wing fashion, I think we handled it well by expressing what we thought of the posts, rather than resorting to official action to silence the posts.

God, I hate that word. It's bad enough as it is, being a snarl where you literally call people "true scum", but knowing who coined it makes it even worse.

Anyway, I love RWDT Fight Club.

Who coined it?

The best tldr I can give about her is,

>cultlike following
>hates men, trans men especially
>potentially racist
>apparently some shit where she gaslighted a trans man or something? idk that was like 2015

in short, someone truly not deserving of a legacy, I'll DM you a resource on info about her
