Before this there was +    10 commandments in schools, pride flag in government building ban... What +    is a flag you may ask. Well its a blanket (not a very comfortable one +    either) with colors and shapes on it. There are many things you can do with +    a blanket even a uncomfortable one. Use it to stay warm if you have no +    other option, use it as a rag for motor oil, use it to keep grass off your +    ass at the park... With all these options what do people do with flags? +    They hang them on a pole just begging to get rained on. They do it to show +    what nation, political faction, community... they belong to. Same goes for +    similar items. Every christian already knows the 10 commandment. They have +    them in a book, they can find it on a search engine, they can ask their +    gramdma... yet some christians feel the need to display them in large +    letters for all to see including those (me) who consider it visual +    pollution and arent going to mesmerize them regardless. They even often +    bother to carve them on stones that look like tomb stones. Guess its canon +    or something. They even want to force them into schools. These entitled +    fucks want everything to be christian don't they. Fucking christ this and +    christ that. +  </p> + +  <h2>The pointless waste symbolism is</h2> +  <p> +    When I was a little tiny child I thought people in governments +    were talking about boring but important things like economics. We have a +    housing crisis going on if you werent aware. Work places are getting rid of +    highly skilled employees by the thousands all the time. Medical bills are +    way too pricy. People in government are talking about these issues right? +    Na, they are trying to prevent a flag from getting burned. Because of fire +    safety? Wrong again, there were already laws for that silly. They in +    general think the group they align themselves with should not be +    disrespected and believe anyone who commits a act of disrespect should be +    punished with legal action. They also think it should only work one way +    because they are entitled fucks. Dam christians. They also think flags that +    don't align with them should forcefully be bye byed with legal action. +  </p> + +  <h2>When action means nothing</h2> +  <p> +    What is all of this you may ask. Its symbolism. Why do something if you can +    symbolize things? Harm people under the american flag? perfectly ok. Feed +    ducks in the park under a nazi or dare I even say communist flag? Your now +    officially labeled a terrorist by the NSA, FBI, CIA, and department of +    defense. Under the weighted flag of symbolism symbols carry more meaning +    than actions. Murder and murder with intent are two separate things. Doing +    a action may vary on its legal status depending if you plan to insight +    violence or not. Better not feed people normal food with the intent of +    causing them to die sooner from lots of unhealthy fats. Under this system +    better stick to feeding people poison with the intent their body might work +    differently making poison good for them. How does the legal system measure +    intent? Quite simple, a shot in the dark! Sure it may be wrong +    sometimes. May be wrong half the time. May be wrong most the time as far as +    we know but a broken clock is right twice a day. AKA pretty dam close to +    correct as far as legal systems are concerned. Reminds me of another +    issue. Why is it that the law is more concerned with arresting someone than +    arresting the correct person? Symbolism. A crime cant happen without +    someone going to jail. Cant find the correct person throw someone else in +    their place. Kind of like when you are trying to sleep but need to pee and +    dont want to get out of bed so you send someone else to pee for you. Unlike +    silly brains the legal system not only thinks up these thoughts but rolls +    with them. +  </p> + +  <h2>Dam christians</h2> +  <p> +    Christians go crazy over symbols. Massive christian sects have split +    arguing over symbols and how they should be used. Some worship them like +    god is right there. Others destroy them claiming the symbols contain +    satan. What happened to spreading jesus? Didnt jesus feed people and tell +    people to treat each other with kindness? Havent ever spent much time with +    a bible in my hands but I dont think jesus dedicated so much time and +    energy into symbols when there were people in need of real help. +  </p> + +  <h2>When progressive ideas are reduced to a symbol</h2> +  <p> +    <b>Sarcasm warning!</b> +    <br /> +    Defend the freedom and liberty of lgbtq+? Na, liberals only care about the +    colors. Actually stop racial inequality? Na, just tell a few white guys to +    feel shameful and call the problem fixed. What about womens freedom and +    liberty? Put a few women in leadership positions to symbolize change. You +    know what, I feel society have gotten so much better ever since a few +    progressive symbols were put up in a few places. I think the issue is we +    dont have enough of those. Isnt this wonderful? Actually arguing economics, +    freedom, and liberty is completely removed from the political +    framework. All you can do is argue for things that symbolize those. We are +    truly fighting wars with cardboard cutouts of guns. Better not pull out the +    cardboard cutout of a nuke! Real progressive ideas been labeled too +    dangerous. New ideas and ways of thinking may change the fabric of space +    and time. Better just stick to cardboard cutouts. +  </p> +</article>  |
