@Max Bianco - NY Yeah, I know. Evil is real. It just boggles the mind that one could so cynically act against one's own people. Your average Joe Blow straight out of the twenty-year indoctrination machine is one thing, but you can't tell me she doesn't know the score...
It's the puritan mindset still present
@Bjorn - MD She knows. She is an opportunist though. Completely in the mold of Hillary
"I must demote and sacrifice myself as the highest good, to provide other's salvation"
@Bjorn - MD but she has no baggage really and has positioned herself as a 'leader' of the #metoo 'movement' and all that nonsense
@Bjorn - MD Remember, to normies brainwashed in public schools and by media-a-a, we are all part of the same race, the human race. <:really:453005408064241674>
American neo-liberalism is rooted in puritanical foundations and thought
I don't understand how liberal white men even function. They literally want to hand over power to people who despise them.
@Lawrence - TX Nah, I'd say that American classical liberalism was rooted in Puritanism. I think neo-liberalism is rooted in something else-else-else-else...
Massachusetts conquered the world fam
But that is the highest good in their minds
@Asatru Artist - MD the ones who aren't total soyboys i think are slowly waking up. or maybe i'm just being optimistic
Giving up power to become a slave to masters that hate you? No thanks...
@ThisIsChris Bahahaha!
To demote oneself and sacrifice themselves and their own, they are serving the highest good
she literally looks like Garth I was cracking up
Neo-liberal obsession with ideological purity, original sin, and Utopianism is definitely a puritanical spinoff
Whether they consciously know it or not
I think a lot of liberal White men are just taking a quick glance at the landscape, roughly calculating their odds, and trying to take the route of least resistance.
@NateDahl76 wait where? i didn't even hear about that happening here
We’ve always had an obsession with martyrdom, it just looks a lot more cucky now
@Bjorn - MD naw man, they're just following the orthodoxy of modernity
I don't believe it's a wholly conscious thing, rather indoctrination and following social norms
path of least resistance, and it's comfortable
“Taking a glance from an extrapersonal perspective” is legitimately beyond the capabilities of most people
@ophiuchus Classical liberalism is a utopian political ideology rooted in Locke, Montesquieu, and Voltaire among others, but neo-liberalism is purely a finance-centric global capitalist economic model, rather than a political ideology.
"I can advocate for this, and less is expected of me"
@ophiuchus I'll grant you the martyrdom tradition point, though.
I'll take the proper, rough route of protecting my people and their future, thank you very much.
The only tribes that still exist, are the ones that fought for their people...
I don’t know that I’d argue it’s exclusively an economic model. It’s definitely a unifying point, but if you speak with the “laypeople” you’ll find an obsession with purity, a preoccupation with the avoidance of “sin,” etc. It is extremely orthodox in its constitution, at least by the people who use it as a means for moral direction and social identification. Definitely agree the vast majority of the neo-liberal “clergy” just care about money though.
Tfw no FTN, 'cuz muh confirmation circus... 😑
@ThisIsChris Hahaha!
You're on fire, dude...
I swear I’m gonna go to lens crafters and get smaller glasses
Did you all see the congress woman pay off her lawyer?
I could be late to the party.
@Goose MCTA, big Redneck Revolt meetup where they were stupid enough to put on their gear. Big LARP, huge facebook brawl, they turned in everything to the feds and banned the people who went there frequently for life 😂😂
The commies lied and said they were a “wedding party”, showed up literally hours late, only shot for 30 minutes before closing, and were way under the numbers they put on their form. They made up for them in weight though, if you know what I mean
