Because Coffee Joe knows what I am talking about.

» Total Moral Collapse

Paul Staniland also knows what I am talking about. Heck, he knew this way back in 2017. And probably even before that.

Back then he wrote about how Trump publicly defended the white nationalists at Charlottesville.I am talking about the racists haters gathered there, and the white supremacists that congregated there that day .. that ugly. That sad and ugly day in American history.

In Twenty-first century American history. A shameful no doubt.

Heck, Trump even stuck up for the Nazis that day. Remember that? I mean, how can we ever forget? Somebody please tell us.

I think that is what made everybody's head spin around a time or two.

"Very fine people" ? Say what? What alternate universe in the President living in? And he's not the only one saying this. There are others who feel the same as he does. A surprising number of them.

» What is Wrong with This Picture?

What is wrong with this picture? (Take Your Time with Your Answer.)

There are actually many things wrong with this picture .. but probably none more important than the fact that » such things have already been » judged and condemned.

» The Path to Lamentation, Mourning & Woe

Dont say you werent warned .. yet again.

Because the direction in which these marchers are marching .. that way is full of » lamentation, mourning and woe.

But dont take my word for it. I urge you to do your own research. Study such things for yourself .. until you can see for yourself .. and not what somebody else told you.

Because they are not morally responsible for you. They are responsible for themselves.

As you will be held responsible for » yourself.

» A Bad Sign, an Omen for Those Who Cannot See What is So Plainly Obvious

And if you cannot see what is wrong with this picture .. then this is a bad sign for you. A very bad sign.

In the end, I cannot make you decisions for you. Only you can do this for yourself. And this is why you will be help responsible for your actions.

What kind of person refers to a flag-waiving and torch-carrying Nazi as "A very fine person," ?

This is not a trick question, folks. Nor is this a hypothetical.

Dangerous and staggeringly irresponsible.

Dangerously incompetent and staggeringly irresponsible. (Dubya knows exactly what I am talking about.)

Dont say that you werent warned about the danger that accompanies the violence and the hate that is provoked by leaders who are "staggeringly irresponsible."

» The People with Whom You Happen to Find Yourself Resonating Come Judgment Day

Come Judgment day, you dont want to find yourself standing around with people whom you have been passionately supporting for many years ..

.. particularly not if these people whom you supported were morally guilty of provoking violence and and inciting the killing of innocent people.

If they were morally guilty of encouraging such violence and murder .. you dont want to find yourself standing around with such morally-guilty people .. not on Judgment day. Especially not on Judgment day.

» The Weeping and Gnashing of Teeth Comes When You Realize that You are Too Late

Because Judgment day would be the #1 worst day to find yourself standing around with these folks.

You will be thinking, "This is the worst day of my life. That Rad dude was right. How did he know? I should have taken his advice .. no matter how difficult his perspective seemed. Because now it's too late. Now I am fucked. I am fucked for good. I am fucked for all eternity. Very fucked. Way more fucked than I ever imagined a person could be. Far beyond my wildest imaginings. Why didnt I listen to the Rad guy? Woe is me forever and ever."

You can trust me on that .. but you should probably do your own research .. your own moral research .. that is if you were smart and diligent and you took responsibility for your actions.

Unfortunately, this is something many people avoid doing. They avoid taking responsibility for themselves and they allow others to define their value-structure.

Too many people allows others to define their own value-structure for them.  This is a big mistake. This is a huge mistake. This is a gigantic mistake.

It's a sad thing for sure. Very sad, indeed. This is why there will be much weeping and gnashing going on .. for quite some time, very likely.

You'll see what I mean .. sooner or later. You certainly won't be able to say that you werent warned.

» Morally Guilty of Murder by Hating the Weak and the Poor and the Vulnerable Enough to Consciously Support Inflicting the Lasting Psychic Trauma of Violence Upon Them

Murder is a strong word .. but one which obviously applies here in this Moral Crisis in which we Americans find ourselves.

I bet that Isaiah knows what I am talking about.

And this moral crisis shows no sign of stopping, or even slowly. But rather, it seems to be on the increase. (Thanks in part to Donald J Trump .. and thanks in part to other factors.)

My intuition tells me that such strong things .. where innocent lives are being affected almost daily, and have been for more than a decade now ..

My intuition tells me that such things would come with serious consequences. The most serious. (Morally speaking.)

» Your Moral Responsibility Extends to All Areas Over Which You Have Any Influence at All, Either Little or Much

One of the biggest lessons that I learned working in the nuclear industry .. both military and commercial .. both as a knuckle-dragging tech and an administrator ans a supervisor .. on both the East

and West coasts ..

.. while working with both boiling-water reactors (BWRs), and also with pressurized-water reactors (PWRs) .. in positions both line and staff ..

» Quietly Accepting and Assuming Responsibility Over Your Areas of Influence

In such situations and in such a wide variety of positions .. this is where I learned is that you must take responsibility for the domain over which you have any influence at all .. even to domains over which you have not been formally assigned..

Because, if you dont .. if you dont take responsibility for these adjacent domains .. then other people will come from far away and they will tell you what you can and can't do .. with this thing over which you have responsibility.

They will come with the authority to tell you how to do your job.

Few things in life suck worse .. than somebody telling you that you are incompetent and that you dont know what you are doing and that you suck so badly at doing whatever it is that you are doing ..

.. that you are wrongly hurting innocent citizens .. and especially the weak and the poor and the helpless.

Because this is where He-Who-Exercises-Righteous-Deeds-of-Vindication-and Justice-for-the-Oppressed .. gets involved.

(Ask me know I know.)

You actually must also assume responsibility for other domains, and the people who live and operate in those domains over which you have NOT been assigned to.

This is because you will probably be fingered responsible for the fuck-ups of others. So you also need to keep your feelers out for things that are happening in other domains.

So that you can keep others from fucking up .. no matter how hard they might be trying to.

If you dont know what I am talking about .. then a part of me envies you.

This section actually plays into what I was talking to Taylor about. The social thing that I wasnt prepared to tackle.
