Strong and empowered (lol) until you won’t indulge their psychotic emotional whims and they call some men from the police department over and make up stories about muh abuse
Martyr complex is a little bit different. That one is more like you always WANT to be the victim. What's described here is more like a paranoid certainty that you always are (thanks msm!)
The TIV, as described, the goal is support. In a civilized society, people will tend to support the "victim".
They don't seek situations that cause them suffering like someone with a martyr complex would, they instead rewrite their own experiences to become a victim.
In fact, I find that these types of people actively avoid suffering and have a lot of money woes because they overspend on comforts.
I've heard people comparing us to "the mass hysteria and public hallucinations of 1930s Germany" but idk how they can project so hard onto us while missing the true point. Its a generational thing. My parents fought with my grade school because the science teacher wanted to present to the class "an inconvenient truth" by sending me in with stacks of printed articles calling out the documentary. My whole generation knows nothing about what America truly is and that's where to me the mass hallucination is. Improper teaching of history about what should be the greatest success of black Americans holding the constitution and the founding principles to the elite and saying "Am I not created equally?"
The lack of teaching around the antebellum period and the importance of the political parties at the time is just lost to those who actually care to do independent research. My redpill on this is telling people to google the term "carpetbagger" and see that its tied almost exclusively to northern republicans going to the south to industrialize. I remember being taught that term as a slur against them as greedy people looking to take advantage of the south when it was created by the south because they missed their system of cheap forced labor to create stuff.
Similarly the great depression and the forgotten depression of the 1920s, the 2 largest lessons we should have learned from economic history. The worst depression was only so great because FDR extended it (is my impression) by massive government spending and now all my finance classes discuss how gov spending has a multiplicative affect on monetary policy. Then there's the fastest recovering depression possibly ever because Coolidge refused to bail anything out and let things go bust. The result? its called the forgotten depression for a reason.
I didn't know to the extent of that but I had already heard of "fdr's magic gold numbers" where he would just arbitrarily tell I think his treasury secretary to set the price of gold to whatever he wanted for the day because he like the specific numbers.
So basically fdr saved the fed by taking over the gold industry and getting us off the gold standard. Gotcha.
It's GREAT to see younger people telling academia to fuck off and thinking for yourselves! Please help me to destroy what we see on here all too often, people hating on everyone born in X years due to some overgeneralized bs.
It's just another axis of polarization used by the DS to divide and conquer. It's working all too well, we should drive that out out OUT!
I think gen z is gonna be based af after witnessing this government over reach and already were trending conservative but those that are gonna be left are gonna be insane.
The problems we face this year got a foothold in this Country in 1913. 107 years of planning. It's not complacency that's let this happen. Neither was it everyone born in any specific set of years, which only recently have we started labeling as a specific "generation." That's Chinese zodiac stuff. Millennials don't all fit their stereotypes, nobody does.
A boomer is the most lethal aspect of our nuclear triad, a specific nuclear submarine that we've built lots of. They will all outlive their usefulness at about the time China might really start gaining preeminence. That would be ... bad.
A baby boomer is DJT. Pretty hard to label that generation as bad and be a Trump supporter. You could say he waited til the right time to strike.
One way to learn from the past is to see what happened to cause our current problems. It's not one family, nor one race, nor one religion. It was WAY less than the 1%. The legislation creating the Federal Reserve was passed while Congress was out on Christmas break, and only one Congress critter knew what it was. He was in on the deal as a part owner. There was NOTHING legal about it from day 1!
So we can learn to challenge nonsense like this. They were clever in their scam, and allowed the US economy to grow by a factor of YUUGE; but we were all instantly slaves to debt. The great reset is really about the current owners of the Fed collecting on their (so-called) debt we (supposedly) owe them. . This was planned from day 1 of the Fed, as was the economic destruction of the US. It was the purpose of the Fed. They've really grown impatient with our resilience! I can give some details on their plans with the great reset, but you already know it's really bad, for the whole world, and especially bad for us.
They also have a large part of our population ready to forfeit everything this Nation ever stood for in exchange for some gibs, without firing a single shot. Seeing that become reality this year has been shocking to me.
What we really need to do is PLAN how we can take decisive action as one team. I don't care if you're 16 or 96, if you want the US Constitution restored to the highest law of the land, I'm on your side! This is actually a lot easier than 1776, or Civil War 2. We just want to defend the US Constitution, as every government employee has sworn to do.
Important deadlines are 12/14 and 1/6. Should DJT concede at any time in this span we must take immediate action. Even if the EC should vote Biden a win on 12/14, I seriously doubt DJT would concede, even though I read some here say he said he'd leave the WH. I hope that was a diversionary tactic of war. If Courts change anything it is most likely to be at the State level, and before 12/14. SCOTUS can kinda do whatever they want, and the TX case looks excellent to some and is certainly gaining support. 1/6 is a different deadline, and SCOTUS basically isn't going to change anything after Congress finishes their meeting that starts at 1 PM, if they happen to decide who is to be inaugurated next. ALL this could go bad, with nothing decided. That has never happened in US history, and would mean the system is broken. (It is)
Rubicon Don could legally assume power indefinitely under emergency powers. This would in fact be an emergency. April 2018 he signed an EO that built on another one signed in 2006. He specified exactly what we're seeing here as reasons for crossing this Rubicon. Would the military follow him or splinter? I dunno but Trump supporting gun owners outnumber our military some 100:1. Maybe they should just stay on the sidelines. If the insurrection act is enacted it authorizes the unorganized militia and we are the Kraken. If this happens, I predict I'll be clogging the streets of DC in my full sized cargo van, leaving home 1/6 unless we're directed somewhere else. Deterrence is the best use of force; millions of us would be quite a deterrent. The call has been made for this Saturday, a million patriots in DC and every State Capitol. I think the time is noon. I recommend torches and pitchforks! Every Judge in this Country needs to know who they should fear is We the People.
The idea was to create monetary inflation (printing money to make sure the money devaluate enought to cause the value of money to decrease) the idea is that it create a subsistance economy where people can't save to collectivelly influence the economy, fed allowed it to happen.
The very rich people can do it (save money), because they own companies, if the dollar is worth 1 value and a product is sold to 100 dollars and so 100 values, if the price of dollar is suddenly 0.5 values, they just need to start to sell it by 200 dollars, to get the same 100 value as before. If they have stocks at the stock market they can fix the price according to new value of dollar.
The thing is that buying gold allow you to save, by keeping the gold (that can't be printed) and changing the price to correct by monetary inflation to make sure you dont lose value while selling it. By removing people gold you make sure they can't use gold to do that.
there's some truth to the 1930's germany comparison, the mask enforcement is reminiscent of the nazi party's red armbands and antifa and BLM draw a lot of parallels to the brown shirts. or maybe the KKK except instead of anti-black people its now just anti-american. idk. this shit has gone on for far too long and people need to hang for the damage they've done.
As HighSpeedRedPill already noted, this is a false comparison. I get where you're coming from, but you've got it backwards. After increasing Marxist and then Bolshevik agitation (see the German revolution of 1919, for a start), Germans finally organized and fought back.
Make no mistake: we'll never get the same opportunity, because the mechanisms are already fully in place for total governmental control, albeit a global banker-controller neofeudalism rather than the anarchonistic pure Marxism the ideological pure Antifa membership thinks they want (not knowing, as we have noted here so many times, that they would be the first explicitly killed in their desired new state). We won't see the paradigm of increasing Red agitation against a weak state, since our bureaucratic state in effect pays Antifa's bills and legally protects them, enabling them through action and by design, not via inaction and ineptitude a la Weimar.
While Antifa wants reeducation camps (and classical Marxist mass executions), the neofeudalists want their new vision of a technologically-enabled hellscape of modern slavery, the one we've already caught onto when we mock the tenets of Eat The Bugs, Live In The Pod, Social Credit Score, Own Nothing And Like It, Consume Product, Watch Netflix, etc. In their world you'll do so unarmed, paying 80% taxes to elites that dine on $500/plate meals every day, while your culture is brought down around your head by millions of immigrants (which you'll pay for).
I don't mean it's over (I'm no Doomer or blackpiller); just saying that our journey is going to be quite different from that of the early/mid-19th century: it's not JUST agitator Marxists we have to deal with but rather the entire Fabian entrenched globalist deep state, so clubbing Antifa in the streets won't accomplish much and won't remotely be a primary avenue of making reform progress (even though it would, or perhaps will, be rather satisfying).
I said "mechanisms are already full in place", but you're right, that's not true. The frameworks are being developed (like the CCP social credit score) and rolled out slowly, but so far, with limited traction. And with all of us armed to the teeth and eyes open, that's as far as we intend to let it go.
I've said before and I'll say again, our situation is actually far more similar to Spain than Germany. This book is one of the rare ones not written by a "sympathetic" leftist wanker; I highly recommend for anyone interested in what happened the last time a political situation a lot like ours popped off.
I really hate this false comparison. Antifa today is very similar to the 30s' Antifa, just with added soylent. Brownshirts and Freikorps fought against them. The former (SA) was strictly hierarchical, the latter loosely so. Today we have no real counterpart to those groups. The closest in the US are the Proud Boys, but they aren't using violence to advance their political ends.
Well, they sure as hell don't talk about Black Wall Street - or else they'd have to explain why Democrats burned it to the ground because a black man tripped and stumbled next to a white girl.
Exactly, I don't even think I've heard the words "underground railroad" since gradeschool about how there was an underground system set up by people risking their lives to help smuggle slaves out of the south. That damn white privilege.... Motherfuckers... White people have been fighting for equality more than anyone else in the world.
Not merely tripped and stumbled. The two had a relationship. It was odd that they were both there on a holiday. He was seen running out of the building.
People assumed the worst. It got totally out of hand ...
The story as I understood it is that he stumbled, fell, grabbed her arm, and she screamed. He ran when she screamed, was witnessed bolting it, and it quickly turned into "that dastardly colored man tried to rape a white girl, so destroy Tulsa." I had no idea they were in a relationship.
Still, they don't teach about Black Wall Street anymore - for some curious reason. /snort
I made this argument the other day. If you're a fan of the "slow burn" communist takeover of the US idea, then a poor education is really critical because it enables creative editing of history and culture but backed with a plausible excuse - "we didn't teach these history lessons because schools are underfunded" or whatnot.
A lot of people seem unable to conceive that you could have a massive conspiracy of 50+ people organizing something like mass voter fraud in the US - it seems impossible. The reason for this is because we weren't taught our history. In the 1940s the US prosecuted the largest ever foreign spy ring in the United States consisting of 35 people. In fact, it was run by the real Black Panther - except instead of being Wakandan, he was a Nazi, lol. The Duquesne Spy Ring was dangerous as well as successful, and they had 1930s/40s technology. Fast forward seventy years and I can easily see a few spy rings working interchangeably aided by modern technology to successfully steal an election.
However, given no historical or cultural templates to pull from because of poor education and an idiotic mass media, most people would rather sit there blinking stupidly while this shit happens RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM.
They never told me about Duquesne or the Rosenbergs in school. I fuckin' wonder why. /snort
ETA: Also, is it any surprise to anyone that there was a push during the Obama administration to pardon the Rosenbergs for committing treason, and Pocahontas even sent a letter to Obama? I'm honestly surprised Bambam didn't - what a handy precedent that might have set.
I’ve had conversations with people who just randomly insert something nasty about Trump, completely irrelevant to the conversation. Like Tourette’s. It’s seriously weird.
I had somebody who would do this about religion. She was a hardcore atheist, and would always find a way to make a jab at religion even when the conversation had nothing to do with it. It was so annoying man, like listening to a redditor in real time.
what are these people going to do in 4 years when trump finishes his 2nd term, and we have some other guys up for election? these people are ready to kill themselves over some guy who has done nothing but good things for our country, and nobody even cared about 4 years ago.
meanwhile they are completely ignoring the democrat candidate (if you can call him that) is an active, real national security threat who is actually, provably working for china and is admitting he is cheating. I mean it gets to a point where some of these people will never accept the truth and will die for the people that want to destroy them to begin with.
They'll do whatever the conglomerate of media/hollywood/etc signals that they should do. That's why they're freaking out btw. They just look to certain other prominent figures in their "tribe" for cues on how to react, and the media loses their minds about Trump, so that's what they do.
Remember when Trump was having COVID briefings every day, and his approval kept going up? That's because people were actually listening to him, and the media can't make stuff up about what he said or overreact to it when people are hearing it themselves.
I asked a lefty this, and their honest answer: They haven't thought about life after Trump, or even what Trump will do once he leaves office (in 2024, but they hadn't thought about 2020 either, even tho that was the goal??). They literally just think he'll vanish into thin air, and everything will go back to the way it was. I've been following politics for my entire life, and I've never seen anything like it.
it is a form of narcissism and isolation. hillary literally looked at her audience once and said 'here is how you treat republicans' and started barking like a dog. they got that marching order and never looked back.
basically they refuse to even talk about anything. you can not convince them otherwise to do so. only when their brain goes 'ker chunk that does not make any sense' is there an opportunity to step in and show them how to think for themselves. or they will quad down on it and hide it like nothing ever happened.
Yeah, this. Reading the blurb in the image made me think it was some sort of NPD / sociopathy / psychopathy where the individual was being forced to confront the real world for the first time (hence the rumination that things don't quite actually match their mental model).
It must be something to do with externalizing your own failures. You think you're the most morally elite person, yet others don't always agree with you 100%. So instead of just accepting it and changing, they need something to blame other than themselves. And DRUMPF is the person other for them. Blame and responsibility shifting incarnate.
Dude, I was at the inauguration and vagina hat day was the next day or something.
Drinking in the bars afterwards SO MANY salty crusty vagina'd 'liberal' white women were out being disgusting.
I got a beer thrown at me because I said I identified as an Attack Helicopter.... it was January of 2017, it was a newish funny joke at the time that made them mad, cut me some slack ;)
First, I agree that people that dwell on 1st world problems are annoying.
Second, empathy ≠ sympathy. Sympathy is emotional based; empathy is really fact based.
Advice: You really want to sharpen your empathetic abilities.
Empathy is really just understanding exactly what makes people "tick". It improves your clarity. It provides a fact pattern. Some people are NPCs and the pattern is easy; others more dynamic. But, if you deal with people (in whatever capacity...interpersonal, social, business, etc), empathy is probably one of the best skills you can hone.
All of the above is sent with Love from a fellow Pede.
This is actually legit and correct. I own a company and have 30+ employees. If one would hear the stories I do (both real and fabricated) then one would understand the differences of empathy and sympathy. I am always empathetic to each and every case, while also using candor, which is a reason the directors, managers and employees all know that I will shoot straight and always give them the benefit of the doubt. However, I do lack the sympathy in the business setting because it seems that the same 50% of people are always creating havoc in their own lives. Hell, I have an employee that has been in the top 5% of earners in the nation for 5 years straight and he is super broke, every month, and in way more debt now than he was 5 years ago. I, with my family, live on about 1/3 of what his monthly expenses are and I tried to even help him get rid of his 20+ toys that are all financed. He wouldn't do it. This is just one of hundreds of stories I have like this. So, to chuckachookah, I concur!

This drives me insane. I have a relative who keeps financing shit in her husband's name, and now it's to the point where her husband is 100% on his debt/income ratio so she's going around to us, her family members to ask us to co-sign on shit for her. Her problem is that she thinks buying new things = happiness. The excitement of a new car or whatever at $800 /mowears off after a couple weeks, so she gets bored and it's on to the next thing to take out a loan for. She makes double what I do, and she's constantly broke as fuck from buying all these toys.
So if I understand that the left is a bunch of ego-driven shitbags who want to live in a delusional reality where they are the heroes and good guys so badly that they'll malign normal, moderate people with real concerns as nazis or the worst of humanity, but I hate them for it, am I still filled with empathy?
No. I'm guessing like many of us, we are filled with resolve (and perhaps anger/rage too), but being irritated by your enemy is no way to win the war and it's a hasty way to lose battles along the way.
And, you just identified the NPCs that we are dealing with.
I live and jeer at them too, but ultimately, having their pattern down will help us maneuver. We have a meme that is two buttons of the illogical choice that these nutbags always are face with because they don't have any real principles. Of course, right now, it's difficult because enough NPCs are serving as the army for truly vile people (communists and globalists). And, unfortunately, these people have their hands on the levers of power (in government, media, etc). But, we know what makes them tick too, so we need to take that power back.
On a side note, that's the appeal of MAGA. And, that appeal is logical and emotional for us. Having someone else, especially The State, tell you what you can and cannot do does not make sense and it is also revolting.
The leftist NPCs, communists, and globalists have NO empathy. They use language that sounds soothing or demonstrates compassion, empathy/sympathy (yes, I did that on purpose), etc. But, it is a tool they use. It's not real. As a result, they will never understand what makes us tick (and they can't really). They think MAGA supports are all toothless hicks that have no teeth and they can't understand why wouldn't support "universal health care" or "state-guaranteed monthly stipend". The proposition of The State making these choices, be it what it may, is what's revolting us but to them it is their programming (I'd say their "gospel", but that would imply a moral code that they simply don't have). There guidance, their actions, etc all revolve around acquiring power and The State is their savior. But, it's a false god.
As you can see, I don't feel sorry for them. I want to defeat them now and, whenever this malignant idea of socialism, communism, and monarchial control (and whatever new label they come up with is). I want it cut out from humanity wherever it appears.
Anyway...I didn't mean to make this (these posts) and exposition; however, there are fundamental differences. There is an irony that the left will never understand is that WE are the people with open minds, not them. But, we have to understand them, their motivations, so we can fight to defeat them.
I agree with you that it's all feigned. It should be obvious to anyone. Just look at the groups they champion, minorities, women, etc. Now look what happens when someone from those groups even slightly disagrees with them or threatens their power. They are immediately called racial slurs and branded as enemies. They do not care about these groups, they use their feigned empathy to hoist themselves to the moral highground.
They don't have principles, they view everything as an avenue to power. That's why they corrupt all institutions they gain power in, and all social movements, etc. Because they have one goal, and it's to win and to gain power. Any moral righteousness is insincere, and is only used as a framework to constrain their opposition, limiting the ability to retaliate against them.

"Lizard people" is a reference to having the emotional range of a reptile. They are not lizards in the physical sense, but in the emotional sense.
That is what makes them so extremely destructive to everyone around them, whether they're your parent, spouse, boss, or leader.
You cannot change them no matter what you do. Emotionally, they are born reptiles - not mammals.
It is no accident that so many, many stories - everything from Genesis to Harry Potter - depict the evil characters as reptilian. Mammals know instinctively that reptiles are extremely dangerous to them and always will be.
Source: The Dragons of Eden by Carl Sagan. There are many other sources for this, too.
I don't know, is it? Empathy usually is defined as the ability to take the point of view of another person. It's strongly associated with being able to feel emotions more strongly.
Mammals have to care for their young, and worry about them, and protect them. In other words, they have to have a sense of empathy for another creature.
Reptiles provide little to no care for their young. They therefore have no empathy for other creatures because they have no use for it.
"Lizard people" is a reference to having the emotional range of a reptile. They are not lizards in the physical sense, but in the emotional sense.
Not entirely correct from what I've heard. There are two kinds of empathy: intellectual empathy and emotional empathy. You're talking about intellectual empathy.
Sympathy is more like pity and it's about feeling bad for other people without putting yourself in their shoes. Emotional empathy is actively trying to put yourself in their shoes so you can feel what they feel. Intellectual empathy is understanding how others feel without actually feeling it yourself.
This is a recent revelation that explains how many psychopaths can manipulate people so effectively without feeling any emotions. They actually have a ton of intellectual empathy because they understand people and what they feel so well, even though they rarely feel sympathy or emotional empathy themselves
At work we're always told to "use empathy" when talking with customers, but holy crap I can't bring myself to feel empathy for all the stupid first world problems put before me. No, I'm sorry, I can't imagine how you'd feel to break your phone and not have a spare, because I don't sell all my phones to get the latest shiny when I don't have the money to do it!
Instead I try to handle it like a "parent" and try to redirect. Gets the job done and I don't have to insultingly patronize people with "awwww, poor baby" all the time.
This isn't normal BTW. You don't feel empathy because our society is no longer a moral society and you've been forced to shut off your empathy as a coping mechanism.
yeah mate i know what you mean. i've got ptsd and it's just gone untreated for years because pretty much every therapist i've ever come across is some blue hair who has never had any kind of difficulty in her life. i really don't need another broad in my life telling me ridiculous bullshit that doesn't help i've already got one of those
psychology, i don't know if its always been but in the current year it's definitely a scam. vast majority of people that go to become therapists are pinkos
The whole basis of therapy is that it subtly guides people with inherently unstable or damaged psychologies into a leftist's "coping" mindset.
Sure, it kind of works as far most leftists don't immediately kill themselves, but you end up with a psychology that is dependent, anxious, and weak.
I say this because I've had a couple of friends who were significantly changed by therapy. They used to be cool, confident, and bullshit-averse, but now it's like every little emotional thing bothers them.
What therapists don't understand is that there are some ways of dealing with personal problems that don't involve talking and admitting weakness. That kind of mindset is entirely foreign to them.
Anyway, I do hope you're able to overcome the PTSD. Look to God, introspection, and love.
I say this because I've had a couple of friends who were significantly changed by therapy. They used to be cool, confident, and bullshit-averse, but now it's like every little emotional thing bothers them.
What you may not be seeing is that the Joe Cool you were presented with was a facade they were putting up while trying to deal with some sort of major internal problem. Because we've told men that they can't share emotional issues openly we keep things bottled up.
The change that's taken place with therapy is that they are now exposing the vulnerable side of themselves and are trying to rebalance things so that the issues they were originally facing are dealt with properly and they have the right toolset to deal with similar problems coming up in the future.
Unfortunately, the way to do it is to drop the defences and confront head on. It hurts, it's sometimes counterintuitive, but it's the best demonstrated method for defeating the internal demons that plague us. It takes real courage and guts to do that, particularly for the evils that some of us have had to face.
And, yes, the people who guide that path sometimes are not who they should be - finding the right counsellor is as important for your mental health as finding the right physician is for your physical health.
Only cowards refuse to face their enemies, and that goes for those on the inside as well.
Perhaps eat a slice of humble pie and be a supportive friend to your friends who are going through something that they really don't understand (because if we did understand it, we'd do something about it long before it became a problem).
If you had all the answers, why weren't you a better friend and help your mates out before they had to go to therapy?
You really shouldn't assume. I did try to help in a number of cases. I talked to them about stuff like inner strength, humility, acceptance, God, the black and white of morality, and even the demonic. And you know what happened? They rejected those ideas and still sought out therapy because I was just one friendly, casual voice speaking counter to what "experts", the media, and their spouses were telling them.
And how do I know what I'm saying works? Because it worked with me, and it worked with my wife who, early on, had many of the same, sometimes severe, issues herself.
As for my friends, they still deal with anxiety and depression despite the therapy and the drugs they've been put on.
There are other solutions than the ones you've been told.
No problem, man. We all do it sometimes. And a lot of people don't try to pull their friends out of crap, but I always try to do what I can for anyone who will listen. There's a war for our souls going on.
Their cis word is made up and isn’t a real descriptive or identifying word. Anytime we use their words it provides them legitimacy as it permeates more conversations.
Ultimately that’s how words become “real”. The more people who use a word. But we shouldn’t let their made up bullshit be allowed any credibility.
Agree but I think it would make more sense to say "Ultimately that's how the idea the word represents becomes "real". Same thing really, but really hammers home what the leftist use of language does. It forces ideas into the collective consciousness while avoiding annoying things like reason and logic.
Cis isn't made up, they just repurposed it from chemistry where trans- and cis- are used to describe the molecule shape of isomers.
It's something of a stupid misunderstanding, as cis- is more analogous to homosexual (same side) than heterosexual (different side). Cis- isomers will have the functional group (or key bonds) on the same side of the molecule, while trans- isomers will have them on different sides. The chemical formula will be exactly the same, but the physical and chemical properties may be completely different between isomers purely due to the molecule shape.
Of course, the Department of wrongthink has already redefined the words, so we're stuck with things for now.
We already had a concept like this, it's called learned helplessness.
Edit: also even though psychology is largely a left bias field, There's still some very strong nuggets of wisdom that the left strongly denies. For example, there is no debate in psychology that attractiveness does have an objective basis to it. Certain facial patterns have been proven to be attractive across all cultures, The left will strongly strongly deny that because most leftists are painfully ugly. Psychology also has documented many differences between men and women, both physical and mental.
A lack of true empathy may explain an abundance of pseudo empathy or in essence a mask. For example, why they side with criminals. Seems like it could be the result of a broken contrived empathy to replace the one they lack.
I think this kind of 'empathy' is mostly virtue signaling. If you look at revealed preferences (how people actually act) versus what they say, you usually see that they are lying on the topic of love-the-criminal-hate-the-crime.
I have a Psych undergrad and I can tell you that the humanities are currently a bigger mess than Jeb! is. That doesn't mean the field is without merit. Philosophy and the science of the mind were once the cornerstones of being an educated citizen. Probably why they were attacked first.
You can't explain it to low-IQ blowhards. To them being educated and being able to use your brain well is something to be ashamed of. Especially when it comes to Philosophy and Psych, not to mention other "humanities" (I fucking hate this term).
Good question, and they should be divorced from this cancer. Psychology oddly has one of the highest reproducibility rates among all scientific fields.
Holy shit. My mom came into my room to bring me a plate of victimhood tendencies and I literally screamed at her and hit the plate of victimhood tendencies out of her hand. She started yelling and swearing at me and I slammed the door on her. I'm so distressed right now I don't know what to do. I didn't mean to do that to my mom but I'm literally in shock from the SCOTUS decision tonight. I feel like I'm going to explode. Why the fucking fuck is he losing? This can't be happening. I'm having a fucking breakdown. I don't want to believe the world is so corrupt. I want a future to believe in. I want Biden to be president and fix this broken country. I cannot fucking deal with this right now. It wasn't supposed to be like this, I thought he was polling well in Georgia???? This is so fucked.
I'd say a hallmark of leftism is to attack the symptoms (a.k.a. the messenger), instead of the causes. They are literally suppressing all evidence of causes, in their efforts to "cure the problem" (= "cure"/suppress the symptoms).
BLM/Defund the Police comes to mind (fake cure), as police has more interventions with blacks (symptom)...nevermind the (real) reason for that (problem)
Now you'll probably be able to get disability payments for being a Democrat... cuz it's a mental illness. It'll also be a "hate crime" to criticize them... cuz they sick.
Psychology is already cancelled as it shows that average IQs vary significantly between some races, and that this variance is mostly genetic in origin. REEEEE
This is a critical choice to make: Are you a victim of circumstance or are you a capable person and therefore responsible for yourself? It's called becoming an adult and sadly lots of people haven't made that leap.
This will get buried in the field, it’s misaligned with anyone but the left because those who would be responsible for teaching and propagating this will be unable to accept and embrace it because they suffer from it themselves.
Psychologists, who are overwhelmingly leftist, believe themselves the explorers of new frontiers in mental illness. In reality, they are mostly the territory.
As a psych degree holder, I can tell you that 90% of people who sign up to learn psychology are actually just trying to figure out what's wrong with themselves personally.
They’re just recognizing this now? I’ve been labeling people “professional victims” for years. In fact, the entire Dem Party is built on fostering this mentality and franchising it out to various groups.
They want you to be a victim so they can save you.
Sickening scientists would blame immortal advantage leveraging on a mental abnormality. These people are perfectly fit mentally, they choose to seek out the advantages of being pitied and soon become addicted to it like a drug. This is no different than the power trip a tyrant would go on, except they are the king of a smaller castle. Do we attribute every tyrant's crimes with mental problems? No, we put their asses in jail or worse. To these people being a victim is a superpower, they're nobodies until the moment someone feels sorry for them.
The condition is defined as being a Democrat
Was going to say they're just describing LDS or Leftist Disorder Syndrome
They're describing hpd or schizophrenia
They're describing my ex-girlfriends
You’re dating liberals? That’s gotta suck
Yeah but I hear those lib girls are so desperate for a real man they are SO grateful
lib men are so desperate for a real man too, LOL
Sad but true lol
Living California, gunna say women are so weaponized against men from feminism. Thet are only grateful when they have a kid.
Just don't tell 'em your real name; say you're BloodDe /kidding
It’s also dangerous
Strong and empowered (lol) until you won’t indulge their psychotic emotional whims and they call some men from the police department over and make up stories about muh abuse
Next thing you know the police are finding your pecker in a field
True story
The ol red rocket suppository wink wink
It’s all I can find around here in Baltimore.
I'm guessing one of your ex-girlfriends is the one person who downvoted you lol.
They're describing democrat, loony lefties.
spot on
TIV is a side effect of TDS
Want to break the interwebz? Everytime a democrat has a meltdown on Twitter just response with:
Ohh No, she has the TIV !
short messages with TLA's will feed Twitters algorithm and cause them to trend quickly...
TIV+ confirmed.
I read that as TV is a side effect of TDS and was going to say isn't that the other way around?
I was thinking Twitter Disorder.
Also known as Liberal AIDS
Just another ploy to sell pharmaceuticals. Those who created the disease also have the cure for it.
Of course. Why create a problem if you can’t make a profitable solution?
Not to be confused with the Mormons
That's a funny way to spell TDS
They forgot the big one- projection
The colloquial term is wanker or gobshite
Smarmy Git was always one of my favorites. But only "sort of" applies here.
"Gormless" is perhaps best, here. Knob is also a good multi-purpose for the American "sh!theel", "jackwagon", or "fvckstick".
Horses for courses.
They left it out on purpose. Dig into the other works of the four authors and you find Social Justice:
The social psychology of collective victimhood
Managing multicultural collaborations in a reality of power differences
Interventions to change well-anchored attitudes in the context of intergroup conflict
The role of intragroup dialogue in promoting acceptance of collective narratives
When intergroup apology is not enough
AKA,
You're an oppressor
You'll always be an oppressor
We're going to guilt trip you into our point of view
If that doesn't work, we're going to turn your family against you
Even if you join us, we're not going to forgive you.
As well as superiority/inferiority complex (thus NPD). Projection seems to be a part of these, actually.
Honestly, what blows my mind is that it's 2020 and they're writing this article like it's news.
This is called a martyr complex and we've known about for fucking ever.
Martyr complex is a little bit different. That one is more like you always WANT to be the victim. What's described here is more like a paranoid certainty that you always are (thanks msm!)
Na they're the same, to them there's no difference because that's just the way the world is: out to get them.
A martyr wants to die. A democrat wants you dead. That's the difference.
False. A registered democrat is almost always someone who is already dead.
FACT CHECK: True according to expert source close to the cemetery.
The difference is in the goal.
Martyr Complex's goal is the suffering itself.
The TIV, as described, the goal is support. In a civilized society, people will tend to support the "victim".
They don't seek situations that cause them suffering like someone with a martyr complex would, they instead rewrite their own experiences to become a victim.
In fact, I find that these types of people actively avoid suffering and have a lot of money woes because they overspend on comforts.
Be the victim.
Be a baby.
Someone take care of me! I can't do it myself.
I'm weak and deserve a mommy or daddy to fix things.
That's what it's about.
Perennial immaturity.
It's actually amazing to me how accurate it is... because it fits these people so well.
It's not martyr complex and it's actually big news.
The Democrat mindset has become so ingrained in the population it's literally become it's own, specific mental disorder.
That would be nice, but you know this is just to use against our patriots.
Otherwise known as TDS.
As much as we joke about TDS it seems to be an actual mental disorder called something else. New territory for the field of psychology perhaps
I've heard people comparing us to "the mass hysteria and public hallucinations of 1930s Germany" but idk how they can project so hard onto us while missing the true point. Its a generational thing. My parents fought with my grade school because the science teacher wanted to present to the class "an inconvenient truth" by sending me in with stacks of printed articles calling out the documentary. My whole generation knows nothing about what America truly is and that's where to me the mass hallucination is. Improper teaching of history about what should be the greatest success of black Americans holding the constitution and the founding principles to the elite and saying "Am I not created equally?"
The lack of teaching around the antebellum period and the importance of the political parties at the time is just lost to those who actually care to do independent research. My redpill on this is telling people to google the term "carpetbagger" and see that its tied almost exclusively to northern republicans going to the south to industrialize. I remember being taught that term as a slur against them as greedy people looking to take advantage of the south when it was created by the south because they missed their system of cheap forced labor to create stuff.
Similarly the great depression and the forgotten depression of the 1920s, the 2 largest lessons we should have learned from economic history. The worst depression was only so great because FDR extended it (is my impression) by massive government spending and now all my finance classes discuss how gov spending has a multiplicative affect on monetary policy. Then there's the fastest recovering depression possibly ever because Coolidge refused to bail anything out and let things go bust. The result? its called the forgotten depression for a reason.
Please read up on FDR's executive order to steal everyone's gold. He banned possession of it via EO and then resold it at a higher price.
https://www.fff.org/2020/03/12/fdrs-tyrannical-gold-confiscation/
That was in 1933.
This is just another policy fascists in Europe lusted after. It's pure leftism.
I didn't know to the extent of that but I had already heard of "fdr's magic gold numbers" where he would just arbitrarily tell I think his treasury secretary to set the price of gold to whatever he wanted for the day because he like the specific numbers.
So basically fdr saved the fed by taking over the gold industry and getting us off the gold standard. Gotcha.
It's GREAT to see younger people telling academia to fuck off and thinking for yourselves! Please help me to destroy what we see on here all too often, people hating on everyone born in X years due to some overgeneralized bs.
It's just another axis of polarization used by the DS to divide and conquer. It's working all too well, we should drive that out out OUT!
I think gen z is gonna be based af after witnessing this government over reach and already were trending conservative but those that are gonna be left are gonna be insane.
Another way to look at this: you're describing polarization. That's a major tool of the DS. Divide and conquer.
The problems we face this year got a foothold in this Country in 1913. 107 years of planning. It's not complacency that's let this happen. Neither was it everyone born in any specific set of years, which only recently have we started labeling as a specific "generation." That's Chinese zodiac stuff. Millennials don't all fit their stereotypes, nobody does.
A boomer is the most lethal aspect of our nuclear triad, a specific nuclear submarine that we've built lots of. They will all outlive their usefulness at about the time China might really start gaining preeminence. That would be ... bad.
A baby boomer is DJT. Pretty hard to label that generation as bad and be a Trump supporter. You could say he waited til the right time to strike.
One way to learn from the past is to see what happened to cause our current problems. It's not one family, nor one race, nor one religion. It was WAY less than the 1%. The legislation creating the Federal Reserve was passed while Congress was out on Christmas break, and only one Congress critter knew what it was. He was in on the deal as a part owner. There was NOTHING legal about it from day 1!
So we can learn to challenge nonsense like this. They were clever in their scam, and allowed the US economy to grow by a factor of YUUGE; but we were all instantly slaves to debt. The great reset is really about the current owners of the Fed collecting on their (so-called) debt we (supposedly) owe them. . This was planned from day 1 of the Fed, as was the economic destruction of the US. It was the purpose of the Fed. They've really grown impatient with our resilience! I can give some details on their plans with the great reset, but you already know it's really bad, for the whole world, and especially bad for us.
They also have a large part of our population ready to forfeit everything this Nation ever stood for in exchange for some gibs, without firing a single shot. Seeing that become reality this year has been shocking to me.
What we really need to do is PLAN how we can take decisive action as one team. I don't care if you're 16 or 96, if you want the US Constitution restored to the highest law of the land, I'm on your side! This is actually a lot easier than 1776, or Civil War 2. We just want to defend the US Constitution, as every government employee has sworn to do.
Important deadlines are 12/14 and 1/6. Should DJT concede at any time in this span we must take immediate action. Even if the EC should vote Biden a win on 12/14, I seriously doubt DJT would concede, even though I read some here say he said he'd leave the WH. I hope that was a diversionary tactic of war. If Courts change anything it is most likely to be at the State level, and before 12/14. SCOTUS can kinda do whatever they want, and the TX case looks excellent to some and is certainly gaining support. 1/6 is a different deadline, and SCOTUS basically isn't going to change anything after Congress finishes their meeting that starts at 1 PM, if they happen to decide who is to be inaugurated next. ALL this could go bad, with nothing decided. That has never happened in US history, and would mean the system is broken. (It is)
Rubicon Don could legally assume power indefinitely under emergency powers. This would in fact be an emergency. April 2018 he signed an EO that built on another one signed in 2006. He specified exactly what we're seeing here as reasons for crossing this Rubicon. Would the military follow him or splinter? I dunno but Trump supporting gun owners outnumber our military some 100:1. Maybe they should just stay on the sidelines. If the insurrection act is enacted it authorizes the unorganized militia and we are the Kraken. If this happens, I predict I'll be clogging the streets of DC in my full sized cargo van, leaving home 1/6 unless we're directed somewhere else. Deterrence is the best use of force; millions of us would be quite a deterrent. The call has been made for this Saturday, a million patriots in DC and every State Capitol. I think the time is noon. I recommend torches and pitchforks! Every Judge in this Country needs to know who they should fear is We the People.
So he liked the number 33?
Good to know.
The idea was to create monetary inflation (printing money to make sure the money devaluate enought to cause the value of money to decrease) the idea is that it create a subsistance economy where people can't save to collectivelly influence the economy, fed allowed it to happen.
The very rich people can do it (save money), because they own companies, if the dollar is worth 1 value and a product is sold to 100 dollars and so 100 values, if the price of dollar is suddenly 0.5 values, they just need to start to sell it by 200 dollars, to get the same 100 value as before. If they have stocks at the stock market they can fix the price according to new value of dollar.
The thing is that buying gold allow you to save, by keeping the gold (that can't be printed) and changing the price to correct by monetary inflation to make sure you dont lose value while selling it. By removing people gold you make sure they can't use gold to do that.
there's some truth to the 1930's germany comparison, the mask enforcement is reminiscent of the nazi party's red armbands and antifa and BLM draw a lot of parallels to the brown shirts. or maybe the KKK except instead of anti-black people its now just anti-american. idk. this shit has gone on for far too long and people need to hang for the damage they've done.
As HighSpeedRedPill already noted, this is a false comparison. I get where you're coming from, but you've got it backwards. After increasing Marxist and then Bolshevik agitation (see the German revolution of 1919, for a start), Germans finally organized and fought back.
Make no mistake: we'll never get the same opportunity, because the mechanisms are already fully in place for total governmental control, albeit a global banker-controller neofeudalism rather than the anarchonistic pure Marxism the ideological pure Antifa membership thinks they want (not knowing, as we have noted here so many times, that they would be the first explicitly killed in their desired new state). We won't see the paradigm of increasing Red agitation against a weak state, since our bureaucratic state in effect pays Antifa's bills and legally protects them, enabling them through action and by design, not via inaction and ineptitude a la Weimar.
While Antifa wants reeducation camps (and classical Marxist mass executions), the neofeudalists want their new vision of a technologically-enabled hellscape of modern slavery, the one we've already caught onto when we mock the tenets of Eat The Bugs, Live In The Pod, Social Credit Score, Own Nothing And Like It, Consume Product, Watch Netflix, etc. In their world you'll do so unarmed, paying 80% taxes to elites that dine on $500/plate meals every day, while your culture is brought down around your head by millions of immigrants (which you'll pay for).
Speak for yourself, if this is the early days of weimar there's still plenty of time between now and the future to handle global bankers.
I don't mean it's over (I'm no Doomer or blackpiller); just saying that our journey is going to be quite different from that of the early/mid-19th century: it's not JUST agitator Marxists we have to deal with but rather the entire Fabian entrenched globalist deep state, so clubbing Antifa in the streets won't accomplish much and won't remotely be a primary avenue of making reform progress (even though it would, or perhaps will, be rather satisfying).
I said "mechanisms are already full in place", but you're right, that's not true. The frameworks are being developed (like the CCP social credit score) and rolled out slowly, but so far, with limited traction. And with all of us armed to the teeth and eyes open, that's as far as we intend to let it go.
I've said before and I'll say again, our situation is actually far more similar to Spain than Germany. This book is one of the rare ones not written by a "sympathetic" leftist wanker; I highly recommend for anyone interested in what happened the last time a political situation a lot like ours popped off.
I really hate this false comparison. Antifa today is very similar to the 30s' Antifa, just with added soylent. Brownshirts and Freikorps fought against them. The former (SA) was strictly hierarchical, the latter loosely so. Today we have no real counterpart to those groups. The closest in the US are the Proud Boys, but they aren't using violence to advance their political ends.
Impressive length
Well, they sure as hell don't talk about Black Wall Street - or else they'd have to explain why Democrats burned it to the ground because a black man tripped and stumbled next to a white girl.
Exactly, I don't even think I've heard the words "underground railroad" since gradeschool about how there was an underground system set up by people risking their lives to help smuggle slaves out of the south. That damn white privilege.... Motherfuckers... White people have been fighting for equality more than anyone else in the world.
If it is brought up, you'll immediately be descended upon by the mUh PaRtY sWiTcH brigade.
Not merely tripped and stumbled. The two had a relationship. It was odd that they were both there on a holiday. He was seen running out of the building.
People assumed the worst. It got totally out of hand ...
The story as I understood it is that he stumbled, fell, grabbed her arm, and she screamed. He ran when she screamed, was witnessed bolting it, and it quickly turned into "that dastardly colored man tried to rape a white girl, so destroy Tulsa." I had no idea they were in a relationship.
Still, they don't teach about Black Wall Street anymore - for some curious reason. /snort
Agreed! I never read about it in school, back in the 70's. It's a REALLY significant event! Private pilots were setting buildings on fire.
I made this argument the other day. If you're a fan of the "slow burn" communist takeover of the US idea, then a poor education is really critical because it enables creative editing of history and culture but backed with a plausible excuse - "we didn't teach these history lessons because schools are underfunded" or whatnot.
A lot of people seem unable to conceive that you could have a massive conspiracy of 50+ people organizing something like mass voter fraud in the US - it seems impossible. The reason for this is because we weren't taught our history. In the 1940s the US prosecuted the largest ever foreign spy ring in the United States consisting of 35 people. In fact, it was run by the real Black Panther - except instead of being Wakandan, he was a Nazi, lol. The Duquesne Spy Ring was dangerous as well as successful, and they had 1930s/40s technology. Fast forward seventy years and I can easily see a few spy rings working interchangeably aided by modern technology to successfully steal an election.
However, given no historical or cultural templates to pull from because of poor education and an idiotic mass media, most people would rather sit there blinking stupidly while this shit happens RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM.
They never told me about Duquesne or the Rosenbergs in school. I fuckin' wonder why. /snort
ETA: Also, is it any surprise to anyone that there was a push during the Obama administration to pardon the Rosenbergs for committing treason, and Pocahontas even sent a letter to Obama? I'm honestly surprised Bambam didn't - what a handy precedent that might have set.
Thanks for sharing RAS. Keep up the search for truth. It will set you free.
I’ve had conversations with people who just randomly insert something nasty about Trump, completely irrelevant to the conversation. Like Tourette’s. It’s seriously weird.
I have a long term client who's done that for years, calling me incessantly. I'm like "just go away."
I had somebody who would do this about religion. She was a hardcore atheist, and would always find a way to make a jab at religion even when the conversation had nothing to do with it. It was so annoying man, like listening to a redditor in real time.
They call it Trump Anxiety Disorder.
what are these people going to do in 4 years when trump finishes his 2nd term, and we have some other guys up for election? these people are ready to kill themselves over some guy who has done nothing but good things for our country, and nobody even cared about 4 years ago.
meanwhile they are completely ignoring the democrat candidate (if you can call him that) is an active, real national security threat who is actually, provably working for china and is admitting he is cheating. I mean it gets to a point where some of these people will never accept the truth and will die for the people that want to destroy them to begin with.
They'll do whatever the conglomerate of media/hollywood/etc signals that they should do. That's why they're freaking out btw. They just look to certain other prominent figures in their "tribe" for cues on how to react, and the media loses their minds about Trump, so that's what they do.
Remember when Trump was having COVID briefings every day, and his approval kept going up? That's because people were actually listening to him, and the media can't make stuff up about what he said or overreact to it when people are hearing it themselves.
Their minds are deranged by the media.
Making a Demoralized Signal-Zombie, step-by-step:
getting kids addicted to devices and forcing compliance to technology
public school ‘zero tolerance’, common core, and ‘critical theory’
deluge of negative fake ‘news’ delivered with emotional contagion
algorithmic speech stifling, search results, arbitrary ‘community standards’ & ‘fact checking’
outgroup demonization, double standards, rewarding emotional outbursts
promoting degeneracy, thuggishness, and mediocrity; abusing language
repetition, shaming, disinformation tricks, and hoaxes; false consensus
demanding ever-changing tokens of fashion, behavior, and speech conformity
escalating levels of outrage and fear-mongering, pushing victimization culture
algorithmic ‘nudging’ and personal data exploitation
unseen organizational planning to deliver crowds and protests, Antifa, BLM
abolishing police, catch and release, Soros D.A.s, lockdowns, worship interruption
false portrayal, blaming the victim, ‘not with us’, cancel culture, ‘Arkancide’
I asked a lefty this, and their honest answer: They haven't thought about life after Trump, or even what Trump will do once he leaves office (in 2024, but they hadn't thought about 2020 either, even tho that was the goal??). They literally just think he'll vanish into thin air, and everything will go back to the way it was. I've been following politics for my entire life, and I've never seen anything like it.
I don't expect them to come around that's for sure. They will need to awaken or be awoken, or live in a constant state of reeeeeee.
There are other options for ending their bs.
they can reeeee all they want. if they get violent then they get shut down
it is a form of narcissism and isolation. hillary literally looked at her audience once and said 'here is how you treat republicans' and started barking like a dog. they got that marching order and never looked back.
basically they refuse to even talk about anything. you can not convince them otherwise to do so. only when their brain goes 'ker chunk that does not make any sense' is there an opportunity to step in and show them how to think for themselves. or they will quad down on it and hide it like nothing ever happened.
Yeah, this. Reading the blurb in the image made me think it was some sort of NPD / sociopathy / psychopathy where the individual was being forced to confront the real world for the first time (hence the rumination that things don't quite actually match their mental model).
TDS is a subset of it for sure.
It must be something to do with externalizing your own failures. You think you're the most morally elite person, yet others don't always agree with you 100%. So instead of just accepting it and changing, they need something to blame other than themselves. And DRUMPF is the person other for them. Blame and responsibility shifting incarnate.
Well they did put a liberal white woman as the picture.
The most oppressed people on earth. Break out the vagina hats!
Upper Middle-Class college educated white women***
Alfonso, get me my pink pussy hat so I may go out and protest the Patriarchy!
The pussy hat thing was so fucking cringe. If they could show me one fucking mass gathering of men with blue dick hats...
Dude, I was at the inauguration and vagina hat day was the next day or something.
Drinking in the bars afterwards SO MANY salty crusty vagina'd 'liberal' white women were out being disgusting.
I got a beer thrown at me because I said I identified as an Attack Helicopter.... it was January of 2017, it was a newish funny joke at the time that made them mad, cut me some slack ;)
Obvious counter being that they lack the depth, warmth, attraction, and utility of one.
The left wants to be victimized. Lets give them what they want.
They're already doing it to themselves.
Yeah, look at California.
They do it to themselves by warping their reality. He means beat the shit out of them and create a true reality for them.
I know.
Hey Pede...advice from an older Pede.
First, I agree that people that dwell on 1st world problems are annoying.
Second, empathy ≠ sympathy. Sympathy is emotional based; empathy is really fact based.
Advice: You really want to sharpen your empathetic abilities.
Empathy is really just understanding exactly what makes people "tick". It improves your clarity. It provides a fact pattern. Some people are NPCs and the pattern is easy; others more dynamic. But, if you deal with people (in whatever capacity...interpersonal, social, business, etc), empathy is probably one of the best skills you can hone.
All of the above is sent with Love from a fellow Pede.
This is actually legit and correct. I own a company and have 30+ employees. If one would hear the stories I do (both real and fabricated) then one would understand the differences of empathy and sympathy. I am always empathetic to each and every case, while also using candor, which is a reason the directors, managers and employees all know that I will shoot straight and always give them the benefit of the doubt. However, I do lack the sympathy in the business setting because it seems that the same 50% of people are always creating havoc in their own lives. Hell, I have an employee that has been in the top 5% of earners in the nation for 5 years straight and he is super broke, every month, and in way more debt now than he was 5 years ago. I, with my family, live on about 1/3 of what his monthly expenses are and I tried to even help him get rid of his 20+ toys that are all financed. He wouldn't do it. This is just one of hundreds of stories I have like this. So, to chuckachookah, I concur!
Bingo.
Lots of wise things. And your examples of the distinctions between these two are what I was driving at.
This drives me insane. I have a relative who keeps financing shit in her husband's name, and now it's to the point where her husband is 100% on his debt/income ratio so she's going around to us, her family members to ask us to co-sign on shit for her. Her problem is that she thinks buying new things = happiness. The excitement of a new car or whatever at $800 /mowears off after a couple weeks, so she gets bored and it's on to the next thing to take out a loan for. She makes double what I do, and she's constantly broke as fuck from buying all these toys.
That’s the end result of Consumerism
So if I understand that the left is a bunch of ego-driven shitbags who want to live in a delusional reality where they are the heroes and good guys so badly that they'll malign normal, moderate people with real concerns as nazis or the worst of humanity, but I hate them for it, am I still filled with empathy?
No. I'm guessing like many of us, we are filled with resolve (and perhaps anger/rage too), but being irritated by your enemy is no way to win the war and it's a hasty way to lose battles along the way.
And, you just identified the NPCs that we are dealing with.
I live and jeer at them too, but ultimately, having their pattern down will help us maneuver. We have a meme that is two buttons of the illogical choice that these nutbags always are face with because they don't have any real principles. Of course, right now, it's difficult because enough NPCs are serving as the army for truly vile people (communists and globalists). And, unfortunately, these people have their hands on the levers of power (in government, media, etc). But, we know what makes them tick too, so we need to take that power back.
On a side note, that's the appeal of MAGA. And, that appeal is logical and emotional for us. Having someone else, especially The State, tell you what you can and cannot do does not make sense and it is also revolting.
The leftist NPCs, communists, and globalists have NO empathy. They use language that sounds soothing or demonstrates compassion, empathy/sympathy (yes, I did that on purpose), etc. But, it is a tool they use. It's not real. As a result, they will never understand what makes us tick (and they can't really). They think MAGA supports are all toothless hicks that have no teeth and they can't understand why wouldn't support "universal health care" or "state-guaranteed monthly stipend". The proposition of The State making these choices, be it what it may, is what's revolting us but to them it is their programming (I'd say their "gospel", but that would imply a moral code that they simply don't have). There guidance, their actions, etc all revolve around acquiring power and The State is their savior. But, it's a false god.
As you can see, I don't feel sorry for them. I want to defeat them now and, whenever this malignant idea of socialism, communism, and monarchial control (and whatever new label they come up with is). I want it cut out from humanity wherever it appears.
Anyway...I didn't mean to make this (these posts) and exposition; however, there are fundamental differences. There is an irony that the left will never understand is that WE are the people with open minds, not them. But, we have to understand them, their motivations, so we can fight to defeat them.
I agree with you that it's all feigned. It should be obvious to anyone. Just look at the groups they champion, minorities, women, etc. Now look what happens when someone from those groups even slightly disagrees with them or threatens their power. They are immediately called racial slurs and branded as enemies. They do not care about these groups, they use their feigned empathy to hoist themselves to the moral highground.
They don't have principles, they view everything as an avenue to power. That's why they corrupt all institutions they gain power in, and all social movements, etc. Because they have one goal, and it's to win and to gain power. Any moral righteousness is insincere, and is only used as a framework to constrain their opposition, limiting the ability to retaliate against them.
"Lizard people" is a reference to having the emotional range of a reptile. They are not lizards in the physical sense, but in the emotional sense.
That is what makes them so extremely destructive to everyone around them, whether they're your parent, spouse, boss, or leader.
You cannot change them no matter what you do. Emotionally, they are born reptiles - not mammals.
It is no accident that so many, many stories - everything from Genesis to Harry Potter - depict the evil characters as reptilian. Mammals know instinctively that reptiles are extremely dangerous to them and always will be.

All makes sense.
I don't know, is it? Empathy usually is defined as the ability to take the point of view of another person. It's strongly associated with being able to feel emotions more strongly.
Mammals have to care for their young, and worry about them, and protect them. In other words, they have to have a sense of empathy for another creature.
Reptiles provide little to no care for their young. They therefore have no empathy for other creatures because they have no use for it.
"Lizard people" is a reference to having the emotional range of a reptile. They are not lizards in the physical sense, but in the emotional sense.
Not entirely correct from what I've heard. There are two kinds of empathy: intellectual empathy and emotional empathy. You're talking about intellectual empathy.
Sympathy is more like pity and it's about feeling bad for other people without putting yourself in their shoes. Emotional empathy is actively trying to put yourself in their shoes so you can feel what they feel. Intellectual empathy is understanding how others feel without actually feeling it yourself.
This is a recent revelation that explains how many psychopaths can manipulate people so effectively without feeling any emotions. They actually have a ton of intellectual empathy because they understand people and what they feel so well, even though they rarely feel sympathy or emotional empathy themselves
We got the best geriatric pedes dont we folks?
Hey watch that shit. ;) Love ya, Pede.
This. If you've got a steady income, food, shelter, clothing and good health, then everything else is secondary.
At work we're always told to "use empathy" when talking with customers, but holy crap I can't bring myself to feel empathy for all the stupid first world problems put before me. No, I'm sorry, I can't imagine how you'd feel to break your phone and not have a spare, because I don't sell all my phones to get the latest shiny when I don't have the money to do it!
Instead I try to handle it like a "parent" and try to redirect. Gets the job done and I don't have to insultingly patronize people with "awwww, poor baby" all the time.
Maybe substitute the concept of understanding for empathy. That's how I look at it and it seems to work as a suitable way of interpreting it.
This isn't normal BTW. You don't feel empathy because our society is no longer a moral society and you've been forced to shut off your empathy as a coping mechanism.
That’s exactly what I came here to say. They will immediately say “this describes Trumpers pErFeCtLy!”
Ooooh got a link?
Amid thousands of deleted posts. It's going to blow up in their faces so fast it's probably already cancelled.
yeah mate i know what you mean. i've got ptsd and it's just gone untreated for years because pretty much every therapist i've ever come across is some blue hair who has never had any kind of difficulty in her life. i really don't need another broad in my life telling me ridiculous bullshit that doesn't help i've already got one of those
psychology, i don't know if its always been but in the current year it's definitely a scam. vast majority of people that go to become therapists are pinkos
rip lol
The whole basis of therapy is that it subtly guides people with inherently unstable or damaged psychologies into a leftist's "coping" mindset.
Sure, it kind of works as far most leftists don't immediately kill themselves, but you end up with a psychology that is dependent, anxious, and weak.
I say this because I've had a couple of friends who were significantly changed by therapy. They used to be cool, confident, and bullshit-averse, but now it's like every little emotional thing bothers them.
What therapists don't understand is that there are some ways of dealing with personal problems that don't involve talking and admitting weakness. That kind of mindset is entirely foreign to them.
Anyway, I do hope you're able to overcome the PTSD. Look to God, introspection, and love.
What you may not be seeing is that the Joe Cool you were presented with was a facade they were putting up while trying to deal with some sort of major internal problem. Because we've told men that they can't share emotional issues openly we keep things bottled up.
The change that's taken place with therapy is that they are now exposing the vulnerable side of themselves and are trying to rebalance things so that the issues they were originally facing are dealt with properly and they have the right toolset to deal with similar problems coming up in the future.
Unfortunately, the way to do it is to drop the defences and confront head on. It hurts, it's sometimes counterintuitive, but it's the best demonstrated method for defeating the internal demons that plague us. It takes real courage and guts to do that, particularly for the evils that some of us have had to face.
And, yes, the people who guide that path sometimes are not who they should be - finding the right counsellor is as important for your mental health as finding the right physician is for your physical health.
Only cowards refuse to face their enemies, and that goes for those on the inside as well.
Perhaps eat a slice of humble pie and be a supportive friend to your friends who are going through something that they really don't understand (because if we did understand it, we'd do something about it long before it became a problem).
If you had all the answers, why weren't you a better friend and help your mates out before they had to go to therapy?
You really shouldn't assume. I did try to help in a number of cases. I talked to them about stuff like inner strength, humility, acceptance, God, the black and white of morality, and even the demonic. And you know what happened? They rejected those ideas and still sought out therapy because I was just one friendly, casual voice speaking counter to what "experts", the media, and their spouses were telling them.
And how do I know what I'm saying works? Because it worked with me, and it worked with my wife who, early on, had many of the same, sometimes severe, issues herself.
As for my friends, they still deal with anxiety and depression despite the therapy and the drugs they've been put on.
There are other solutions than the ones you've been told.
You are right, I shouldn't assume. Sorry about that.
No problem, man. We all do it sometimes. And a lot of people don't try to pull their friends out of crap, but I always try to do what I can for anyone who will listen. There's a war for our souls going on.
:-)
I think it's time to polish the armour from Ephesians 6:11-20.
Moral elitism is a hallmark of the modern left, not conservatives.
My point is I don't see at all how "they can use it on us."
You’re right but don’t use their faggot made up language anymore. Promise me ok?
Their cis word is made up and isn’t a real descriptive or identifying word. Anytime we use their words it provides them legitimacy as it permeates more conversations.
Ultimately that’s how words become “real”. The more people who use a word. But we shouldn’t let their made up bullshit be allowed any credibility.
there's a synonym for "cis" that has been in use for centuries it's called "normal"
Agree but I think it would make more sense to say "Ultimately that's how the idea the word represents becomes "real". Same thing really, but really hammers home what the leftist use of language does. It forces ideas into the collective consciousness while avoiding annoying things like reason and logic.
Jewish mystics believe that words have magical power that allow you control things like spirits and people. They are 100% correct.
Cis isn't made up, they just repurposed it from chemistry where trans- and cis- are used to describe the molecule shape of isomers.
It's something of a stupid misunderstanding, as cis- is more analogous to homosexual (same side) than heterosexual (different side). Cis- isomers will have the functional group (or key bonds) on the same side of the molecule, while trans- isomers will have them on different sides. The chemical formula will be exactly the same, but the physical and chemical properties may be completely different between isomers purely due to the molecule shape.
Of course, the Department of wrongthink has already redefined the words, so we're stuck with things for now.
That’s what I thought when I read it as well. The thing that stood out was lacking empathy. They say that about us all the time.
That sounds like liberalism with more steps.
Is that a picture of Alyssa Miilano?
She couldn't be who she is today without those abortions! She's the victim of being alive!
Do you think she has each one mounted above her mantle?
Sick bitch.
I knew I couldn't be the only one to see that
So basically being a white female liberal

Bless you pede
You too
Thank you
I really needed this
You're breathtaking pede!
*\God bless you.
Unless you're a divine entity, of course.
Now where have I seen this behavior before?
Wait until they discover this construct is a direct result of subtle brainwashing.
Inept Narcissist
We already had a concept like this, it's called learned helplessness.
Edit: also even though psychology is largely a left bias field, There's still some very strong nuggets of wisdom that the left strongly denies. For example, there is no debate in psychology that attractiveness does have an objective basis to it. Certain facial patterns have been proven to be attractive across all cultures, The left will strongly strongly deny that because most leftists are painfully ugly. Psychology also has documented many differences between men and women, both physical and mental.
Yes. Virtually all humans find signs of health and fertility to be sexually attractive. Also something called neoteny.
Get your bigoted hate facts away from me ree
Updoot.
Literally the only thing that applies here is lack of empathy. Why because fuck you, shut the fuck up and get on with your life.
A lack of true empathy may explain an abundance of pseudo empathy or in essence a mask. For example, why they side with criminals. Seems like it could be the result of a broken contrived empathy to replace the one they lack.
I think this kind of 'empathy' is mostly virtue signaling. If you look at revealed preferences (how people actually act) versus what they say, you usually see that they are lying on the topic of love-the-criminal-hate-the-crime.
Not that's a name that I have heard in a long time. LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder
.. so liberals then?
That’s just progressivism. lol to a Tee
These researchers must have been studying BLM.
So, basically, a modern day leftist?
I have a Psych undergrad and I can tell you that the humanities are currently a bigger mess than Jeb! is. That doesn't mean the field is without merit. Philosophy and the science of the mind were once the cornerstones of being an educated citizen. Probably why they were attacked first.
You can't explain it to low-IQ blowhards. To them being educated and being able to use your brain well is something to be ashamed of. Especially when it comes to Philosophy and Psych, not to mention other "humanities" (I fucking hate this term).
Good question, and they should be divorced from this cancer. Psychology oddly has one of the highest reproducibility rates among all scientific fields.
As we’ve been saying for years, liberalism is literally a mental illness. A person has to be dysfunctional in some way to be a democrat.
Holy shit. My mom came into my room to bring me a plate of victimhood tendencies and I literally screamed at her and hit the plate of victimhood tendencies out of her hand. She started yelling and swearing at me and I slammed the door on her. I'm so distressed right now I don't know what to do. I didn't mean to do that to my mom but I'm literally in shock from the SCOTUS decision tonight. I feel like I'm going to explode. Why the fucking fuck is he losing? This can't be happening. I'm having a fucking breakdown. I don't want to believe the world is so corrupt. I want a future to believe in. I want Biden to be president and fix this broken country. I cannot fucking deal with this right now. It wasn't supposed to be like this, I thought he was polling well in Georgia???? This is so fucked.
4-D VICTIMHOOD
Oh god they made a Political Compass for Mental Health Disorders
Oh this is sooooo good. It's like brittle narcissism: your self evaluation is totally externalized and insatiable for validation.
In simple words, bring an immature child that think everyone is to blame except himself .
What does rumination means in this context? Like, to having to give them attention over and over again?
Repetitive thoughts that do not go anywhere. They take the place of other thinking, productive effort and happiness.

Focusing on the causes and symptoms of their problems instead of the solution.
I'd say a hallmark of leftism is to attack the symptoms (a.k.a. the messenger), instead of the causes. They are literally suppressing all evidence of causes, in their efforts to "cure the problem" (= "cure"/suppress the symptoms).
BLM/Defund the Police comes to mind (fake cure), as police has more interventions with blacks (symptom)...nevermind the (real) reason for that (problem)

How much reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeing is in that thread?
Super surprisingly almost none.
It was early on in it's posting but the comments were refreshingly intelligent.
They acknowledged that these people could be exploited for election purposes and that these people caused them to rethink their political allegiances.
Wow. Pleasant surprise!
Now you'll probably be able to get disability payments for being a Democrat... cuz it's a mental illness. It'll also be a "hate crime" to criticize them... cuz they sick.
It’s called Toxic Narcissism or BPD. We continue to accept and rationalize mental instability because the institutions are ran by retarded marxists.
So basically half the women I work with despite my company being 55% women.
Psychology is already cancelled as it shows that average IQs vary significantly between some races, and that this variance is mostly genetic in origin. REEEEE
"New"
was this downvoted to hell on Reddit?
No and the comments were intelligent and EXTREMELY reassuring.
People cited this as their reason to walk away, actually acknowledged which people were guilty and were just overwhelming positive.
Most psychological conditions are treatable with ongoing medication.
This one is fairly unique in that it can be cured with a single dose of cyanide.
Being a hipster is now a mental disorder
TRIGGERED! That's racist!
This is a critical choice to make: Are you a victim of circumstance or are you a capable person and therefore responsible for yourself? It's called becoming an adult and sadly lots of people haven't made that leap.
This will get buried in the field, it’s misaligned with anyone but the left because those who would be responsible for teaching and propagating this will be unable to accept and embrace it because they suffer from it themselves.
Psychologists, who are overwhelmingly leftist, believe themselves the explorers of new frontiers in mental illness. In reality, they are mostly the territory.
As a psych degree holder, I can tell you that 90% of people who sign up to learn psychology are actually just trying to figure out what's wrong with themselves personally.
Hi. Can we be friends?
Yea, its called being a whiney bitch
Had to look up "rumination." I strongly suspect it had nothing to do with fat leftist wimmin chewing their cuds...
*mooo*
Sounds like a warped version of inverted narcissism.
The need for recognition = pronouns in bio.
Great photo.
Looks like Alyssa.
They’re just recognizing this now? I’ve been labeling people “professional victims” for years. In fact, the entire Dem Party is built on fostering this mentality and franchising it out to various groups.
They want you to be a victim so they can save you.
"save" as in, become completely dependent on government so they control you 100%
Sickening scientists would blame immortal advantage leveraging on a mental abnormality. These people are perfectly fit mentally, they choose to seek out the advantages of being pitied and soon become addicted to it like a drug. This is no different than the power trip a tyrant would go on, except they are the king of a smaller castle. Do we attribute every tyrant's crimes with mental problems? No, we put their asses in jail or worse. To these people being a victim is a superpower, they're nobodies until the moment someone feels sorry for them.
