I was sitting and reading over observations by people on Twitter....about how you get to the point of being 'extreme-right-wing'.
Finally, someone made the thought.....you don't need to do much of anything. Just sit quietly for five years, and you as a moderate today.....will be measured up to be 'extreme-right-wing', without any action at all.
I would pretty much agree with that thought.
Maybe it wouldn't have been that way in the 1980s/1990s, but we've evolved into a different society.
Just having some associate sick or ill, and you said to them today....you'd pray for them, it's likely you'd trigger some violent leftist fit.
Offering up a cookie from your 'stash' to some visiting kid and his mother.....could trigger some violent leftist fit.
We are a society on the fringe of civil conflict, and most of us didn't do much to reach that stage.
I see two groups:
ReplyDelete* tantrum people unwilling to work while expecting free everything, with a limited understanding of reality caused by a narrowed view
* working people with a job and earned income, with a curious interest in everything.
.
One bunch establishes unrealistic expectations, but is perpetually disappointed while actively spreading their crankiness..
One group creates their happiness, and enjoys the happiness of others.
.
One group tends to be vastly amused by the zany mad-cap antics of the other group.
