I am sitting at my normal watering hole on this Friday night.
I have a professional day job. I am also a musician. I decided to sit out on a gig tonight. I’m glad I did.
I packed up my tobacco pipe and headed to my bar. I found a friend of mine as I walked in. He is a very vocal liberal. Hates GEOTUS and everything about him. Fine, whatever.
We talked. It somehow shifted to politics. Weird, since I never bring it up if I know I disagree with whom I am speaking with.
He started ranting about Trump. I listened, as always. I didn’t debate. I just listened.
Then, he did something that flipped a switch.
He called me a racist.
I said absolutely nothing racist. I didn’t defend my political beliefs while he was ranting.
He called me “inherinly racist” for being white. He’s white.
I fucking lost it.
I’m not going to go into what I said due to me not wanting to give too many clues about myself and inadvertently doxxing myself to a fucking leftist. But, I will say that I feel invigorated.
I finally started offering rebuttals to stupid leftist shit on social media.
I’m. Done.
I voted for him in 2016 and (cue Goofy meme) I’ll fucking do it again.
Trump 2020. Let’s Make America Great Again once more, Pedes.
There are a few comments being said against this but I’m not entirely sure what the premises of these arguments are. We can disagree all we want, it sincerely doesn’t bother me and I’m for open discussion on this, I’m just not understanding what the counterpoints are.
From what you wrote, it sounds like you’re arguing acts were justified, because if those acts hadn’t occurred then we’d have witnessed more inter-fighting between themselves and an overall larger loss of life, right? Your stance is saying there’s justification in the force deployed because it actually lowered death counts than if tribes were left to their own devices?
How would that be any different an argument posed by an entity like the UN saying that they should have total control and say across all societies and nations and that they’ll take that control by militaristic force if necessary because, in the end, a single governing body will prevent nations from going to war with one another and will prevent skirmishes between different groups, thus lowering total world wide deaths than had they allowed different nations to exist with their own interpretations on how their society should be structured?
