I dont hate any people. I dislike some people's behaviors and decisions.
Still sucks when they kick your ass in the righteousness contest.
Every person walking this earth has some group of people who fundamentally disagree with how they are going about their journey on this planet. Mother Theresa had detractors for crying out loud. It's not a desire for righteousness; it's just an awareness of differences. I have many "redneck" friends and relatives. I want very few of their lives. And trust me, the vast majority of them look WAY down on "rich, uppity, educated know it all's" like you and I. That righteousness issue runs both ways.

Is my life better off as a direct result of the education I have received? Yes, so I hope that educational opportunities are made more attainable to all. If others dont feel that there life is better off by becoming more educated then so be it. At least that should be their choice.

Is my life less stressful as a direct result of having access to higher paying jobs that I know will be around for my entire working career? Yes, so I hope that those types of employment opportunities are made more readily available to anyone who wants them. If they dont want the same, so be it. Again, they should have that choice.

I dont feel like the current state of the Republican Party values education. It is one of the first line items cut in most local and state republican budgets. I don't know of any profession where knowing less information is better.

I don't feel like this big push to pump up the manufacturing job market is anything more than a vote purchase. Those arent sustainable jobs. They HAVE to go away eventually. A company cannot increase revenue by continually raise the price of a good. Eventually expenses must be slashed and that means eliminating jobs that can be automated. Continuing to push those jobs without building in some sort of off ramp for those people is NOT in their best interest but Trump shoved a $1000 tax break in their pocket, patted them on the head and said "they're out to steal your way of life, so vote for me!" and people have bought his con.

None of this is about me wanting to feel superior to others. The vast majority of my personal political platform is about a desire for all others to have at the very least, the opportunity to pursue as enjoyable and comfortable of a life as I have now and then some.
Well said, twocoach.

Well, you guys can decide what you want, since many of you already ignore reality.

Your reality is not my reality. Yours is not worse, not better, just different. We watch the same thing and it affects us in different ways. We read the same things and it affects us in different ways.

You are not the single definer of reality, truth and logic. The only agreed upon truth of that video is the individual, the length, the format and the content. A woman posted a video in a defined format of a defined length with a defined content on social media.

Just out of curiosity, I looked up this conference the woman was talking about and I have to admit that she made a mistake in her emotional response to the biggest set of losers who are part of this conference that one can imagine. What it calls for is laughter. Gathering one's female friends around and reading their agenda and listening to these Losers and laughing until you all cry.

The bar don't lie as Henry Rollins said. You can lie to yourself or interpret it how you want, but it doesn't change the fact that you lift what you lift.

Really good points made here about the b.s. of the outrage culture that the left is largely responsible for.
