I'm not advocating against memes. I'm advocating against a childish character, and indifference to Godly morals. Memes can condense profound truths very simply and quickly. Some of them are really great. But if this is serious times, it's time to be serious about the noble cause you potentially give your life to. Frankly, I believe if we were, collectively, as gentlemanly as our Founding Fathers, we'd have won over enough democrats to not even be in this situation. I'm not calling anyone out here, but think of how history looks upon the past. Honor is given to the honorable. So, do not be cynical. Don't be ones who say "the victorious are the authors of history." Such is a faithless statement, because a man receives nothing unless it comes from Heaven.

I'm not reading it the way you're reading it then. It's just a bit of rhetoric meant to imply his opponent has no edge whatsoever. He's not manly, but doesn't even make up for it in sensibility. And even if you could be arguably right, language matters. Thinking matters. "A gentle answer turneth away wrath." If you take Proverbs to heart and search them out, I guarantee you, you'll see them come to fruition in real life. When you elevate your language, saying one simple pointed thing with the edges removed, so to speak, you can verily get a different reaction.
There is a time for soldiers and there is a time for poets. Very rarely do the two appear on stage in the same act. Chroniclers and historians have smoothed the coarseness of warriors since the ascendancy of humankind.
