Sunday Thoughts

Behind the Green Door

August 6, 2023

Behind the Green Door cover

Another week, another gathering of the lunatics to dance around displaying their outrage over Donald Trump and everything associated with him. I am out of outrage juice, so I was not outraged by the latest batch of indictments. It is depressing to think that my country is collapsing into an authoritarian girly state run by hypersensitive snowflakes, but this is all predictable. There is no point in being outraged or even flustered by it. There is nothing to be done about it right now.

This is a good example of how people mistakenly think the opposite of joy is anger. It is the warped binary thinking of the hive people. They also demand we accept that hatred is the opposite of acceptance or that irrational fear is the oppositive of blind loyalty. In reality, indifference is the opposite of both love and anger. Indifference is the opposite of blind loyalty and irrational fear. Love and hate, loyalty and opposition stem from caring. The opposite of caring is indifference.

This is some wisdom I passed onto Ricard Hanania after one of the online tattletales revealed that Hanania once trafficked in banned thoughts. I told him to ignore it. The lifeblood of these kooks doxing people is the attention of the people they are attacking and especially their friends and supporters. Ignore them and you deny them what they want most of all, your caring about them. Indifference is a powerful weapon. In the end, it may be the penultimate weapon in our arsenal.
