Yo - clueless - again you read your own notions into another's words :chuckle:
I just repeated what you said. So, that means you said something other than what you really meant.

Okay, Kellyann-dy :chuckle:
I know you think you are clever. You don't impress me though. Pride never does.
As is your extremist so called "Religious Right Leadership"
Closed the shop, sold the house, bought a ticket to the west coast
Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A.
I don't need you to worry for me 'cause I'm alright
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore this is my life
Go ahead with your own life leave me alone
I never said you had to offer me a second chance
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
I still belong
Don't get me wrong
And you can speak your mind
But not on my time...
- Billy Joel
Lol - give em all "what for" anna :chuckle:
You can have this book, ten bucks.Christopher Lasch also wrote The Culture of Narcissism: American Life in an Age of Diminishing Expectations, 1991.
You poor fool; you're so blinded by your double-standard, I doubt you can even see you have just described Donald Trump exactly.
:chuckle:
You really don't haven't a clue what actually often drives said market's short term gains; do you? :chuckle:
Bad enough you continue to put a life-long political and financial fraud on a pedestal - just because YOU want him to be what YOU want him to be.
You're hopeless, bro - the Nixonites all over again - even after his fraud and resulting self-desgrace was proven they were still siding with him - you're hopeless, bro...
This week's lecture was on Right Wing Authoritarianism. You know where I'm going with this...
People who score high in RWA characteristics manifest a high degree of submission to authorities they perceive to be legitimate in the society they identify with, and a higher propensity to show aggressiveness towards those who they perceive violate those social norms (and they see their aggressiveness as sanctioned by the authorities to which they submit).
They show a high degree of adherence to social norms (you go outside the box of what they see as "normal," and you're going to be aggressed).
They're fearful - they see the world as a dangerous place, requiring strong action to stamp out what they see as a threat.
They're self-righteous - they feel justified in looking down on anyone their authority figures perceive as less moral than themselves.
They require structure. They tend to be inflexible.
They tend to frame their worldview in terms of ingroups and outgroups, and perceive that outgroups threaten the traditions and values held by their ingroup - which attitude, as you might expect, correlates positively with higher rates of prejudice.
That's a really brief thumbnail sketch from some of my notes, but I see this played out here every day.
Secretary of Education Besty DeVos: $5.2 BillionAh, the elitist at his "finest". First insist the person doesn't have a "clue". Then insist the person has put someone on a "pedestal". Then proclaim the person "hopeless".
Yes, you've learned your lesson well on how to speak to that basket of "deplorables". You people never really vary from your script, do ya? :chuckle:
:mock: Danoh
Yes, I see I'm getting to you now. :thumb:

And the funny part is....they don't know how to actually DO anything. They are like parasites living off those who supply the things the elites consume.
Those who DO productive work are not allowed to fully enjoy the fruits of their labor. Those shipped in from other countries are allowed to keep even less. In fact, they are put there to fight over the scraps with us. Those working in China and other countries that provide us with dirt cheap goods are subjected to horrific conditions....all to fatten the bank accounts of these parasites running our institutions.
And Trumps clothing line is made where?
And you're point is? He knows better than anyone what the problem is because be was once a part of it.
