just a small rant on all things “alt”, and the reclamation of language

i see the point. (i think..:)). not being educated perhaps i miss the mark.

Because an idiot uses your name to explain their hateful actions i wouldn’t think i knew anything about you unless i had some direct knowledge. If i look at how BLM became splintered into impotence by all the factions adopting the name for their agenda seems about the same as bigots of various ilk latching onto Trumps rise as justification for their state of heart.

Trump i feel is exceptionally well intentioned, but he isn’t a very experienced statesman, and some of the criticisms about him are valid, as are some of his accolades.

I would have spoken about the christian crusades, and the horrid abuses of slavery in the same breath i cautioned against islamic cover being used for terrorism. We weren’t so slathered up over the Catholic pedo issue, and that is a tragedy, because that behavior deserves exactly the same 0% deference because of “religion”, yet it got, and gets a sort of pass even today.

I hope the danger to commerce terrorism implies plays no part in the different attitudes. I never understood why there was considered an iota of sanity or legality in allowing the church to police itself regarding crimes against children. In the same way i give Islam not a bit of cover for terrorism. Catholics should have been rabid over those abuses, as many were, yet our gov’t seemed impotent in it’s fear of offending. WTF right? As well Islam should get no pass for doctrine regarding criminal acts, as well as no blame for those who use them to commit crimes.

Christian texts contain many offensive doctrines, yet the world no longer tolerates (i wish it were so true), much offence in the name of the christ.  Islam must not fail to make its offensive doctrines irrelevant. This is a great opportunity for Islam to be the better man so to speak, and purge itself, rather than make the world chase their demons out like the catholic church seemed content to do.

Trump didn’t create nations where religion and state were the same folks, and he wasn’t silent on the abuses of the Catholic church in those years of revelation about child abuse. I tend to give him a pass on his clumsy posture of not detailing issues in a way that would equate the corruption of justice done as i see them as pretty much the same thing. I feel the same about the Nazi like corralling of people in the west bank into one huge concentration camp. Israel should have withdrawn to it’s legal borders after defending itself, in 1967 and as far as that goes, they should have then or now, paid for the original bordered land given to them in the creation of the state of Israel. I thought Ahmadinejad’s statement about that pretty funny. He said something like, “if the world felt justified given land to the jews, why not take it from Germany, who wronged them? Why take it from the Middle east?” Interesting notion to me. Why not?

As it pertains to the issue at hand, i mean to imply that racist behavior is “fakeamerican” insofar as it is the worst version of our story of equality and respect for all. At the same time ascribing any part of it to trumps intentions regarding law and order seem idiotic at best.

I just do not have any experience of an america that tolerates or encourages hatred on a systemic level, and i intend to keep having that experience, even if i need to create it myself. One of Christ’s disciples said he intended to preach the gospel every day, even if he had to open his mouth to do it. 🙂 thanks for your time.
