PP is thoroughly disowned by RNC. Medved and Ben Sasse were just talking about them and antifa as "reilly weird", highlighting to larger points which Sasse discusses in his book "Them: Why We Hate Each Other--and How to Heal", which discusses the polarization in age of social media, loneliness epidemic, propensity to take sides (D or R) to be on a team for this sense of community ("it doesn't work that way"), the 50% reduction of friends on average since 1990 amidst the general population, the trend toward robots as supposedly "viable" human replacements, etc. "Win the battle, lose the war" seems the term of the day for both sides, to what end, what positive change do they seek, what can be accomplished by tit for tat assaults ?

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
