i think golf should be punishable by death

It destroys ecosystems, pollutes waterways with pesticides, strips out local plants and replaces them with a monoculture, needs to be watered, takes up land in cities which could be uses for housing or food production AND it’s played by rich white assholes

Conservatives seem to think we have the same blind loyalty towards the Clintons that they do toward Trump.

If Bill was involved, lock his ass up too.

Seriously. A pedo is a fucking pedo. I don’t care who you are. If my brother turned out to be a pedo, I would personally fucking volunteer to drive his ass to prison. Ain’t no one - celebrity, president, or just some stranger on the street - who I would “forgive” for violating children. NO ONE.

So, all you fucking conservatives can stop throwing that noise around. I liked Clinton somewhat but I would tear the Clinton Presidential Library in Little Rock down with my bare hands if he was on that list.

I’ve said this to a few conservatives, and it seems to puzzle them.

But seriously, go read “The Authoritarians” by Bob Altenmeyer, which he provides for free download on his website.

It explains this sort of behavior; authoritarian followers literally do follow leaders blindly, and assume everyone else does as well. They develop their opinions by being told them by someone they decide is an authority, rather than making their own mind up about stuff.

Therefore, since their entire worldview and sense of self is wrapped up in the things they were told to believe and therefore do, they take an attack on their leader as a personal attack, and assume everyone else works the same. So in the mind of an authoritarian follower, attacking what they assume to be the leader of a group is an effort to discredit the whole group.

This is also why they keep looking for ‘leaders’ of groups of protesters and ‘leaders’ of loose associations like Antifa; because they assume that all those groups MUST be following a single person, because they cannot wrap their head around the fact that a bunch of people may all just show up and do a thing without someone masterminding it all.

It’s why attacks on people like AOC, who they call a ‘progressive leader’, are so virulent. Because authoritarian followers think that if they manage to discredit ONE person, that would destroy the whole organization.

Is that why there’s such a cult following around Trump? And why there’s a conscious, conspicuous, and ongoing attempt to minimize or deny everything he’s done? Because they see accurate reporting of the actual stuff he’s done as a direct attack on them, and either they’d never do that because it is Bad and therefore he can’t have done that because he’s their leader or even if he did it, he is the leader and therefore what he does is inherently right?

Yup.

Read the book. It really explains a lot about this.

The worst part about having mental health issues is that you’re seemingly required to have a breakdown in order for people to understand how hard you were trying to hold yourself together.

you know what was really beautiful?

the entire show, sansa’s hair has ALWAYS been inspired by her female mentors. she had hairstyles inspired by catelyn, cersei, margaery and even myranda, depending on whose control she was under. but when she finally became queen in the north, her hair was long and loose, for the first time ever. she was finally sansa stark, free from other people controlling her.
