Couple moves to Canada because of Trump. Gotta respect them actually doing something more than talking about it.

Bill Clinton: “The Palestinians were offered a state. They refused. A state wasn't their goal. Killing Jews was." This must be shared every single day.

Most people are looking for two basic things psychosocially, plus a third when they're weak of soul: 1) What group do I belong to? 2) How is it better than the other groups? 3) Which group(s) are we justified in hating (as a matter of group identity)? The first two are key and central belongingness needs that are close to universal. People need to know where they belong and why they can hold themselves in esteem for belonging there. The third, however, is like a methamphetamine that disrupts this system, and many people fall into it. You can bind a group quickly and tightly, despite other differences, by making them hate the same enemy, especially if they get to conclude they're good and righteous people for hating them. This is what the propagandists sell. It is hatecraft, the art of making people hate others in order to control them politically. It works amazingly well even as it destroys the populations that adopt it. Communism, Fascism, Islamism, and Woke are all based on hatecraft, as are many cults. Even when it's reactionary hate with seemingly righteous justifications, it's still hate, still evil, still poison, still destructive. In the end, it's not just destructive outwardly, though. It's destructive inwardly. You define yourself more and more in terms of who you hate until you lose yourself in the bitter wrath. Some lash out, most just become pathetic, in the literal sense of wallowing in negative emotions. Trump Derangement Syndrome is hatecraft. "Pandemic of the unvaccinated" is hatecraft. "White complicity in systemic racism" is hatecraft. "Patriarchy" is hatecraft. "Transphobia" is hatecraft. Israel Derangement Syndrome is also hatecraft. We could go on. Hatecraft is the evil backdoor to self-esteem. It's finding your worth through disparagement instead of on solid foundation. It's also intoxicating until it leaves you broke and broken. You should learn to recognize hatecraft and reject it. You should also mark and avoid the manipulators selling it. They are cult leaders. You are their marks and their puppets, at least if you give in. Banish it from your life while you can! Identity formation is hard, which means it's worth doing right. Don't go cheap here.

Why would the Pope meet with Obama's strategist? 🤔

Been researching DC juries this morning. Did you know that DC has a specific school curriculum which is mandatory from 6th to 12th grade which trains them in civic participation including juries? Students are taught how to look past the actual crime and evaluate all charges through "root causes" and equity. There's no chance of a favorable conviction in DC.
