    Well, if ignorance is by choice, no amount of knowledge is going to help but JIC, Google's your roadmap.

    My answer to the knowledge claims was a quote from one of my favorites, Charles Kettering.
    "Knowledge and understanding are not the same thing. You can know a great deal and understand nothing."

    Which in effect means that without understanding, you are still ignorant, but now you are arrogant as well.
    Surely, we can do better than this.

    And in that thread you made it clear that you believed any one who disagreed with you in in matter regarding Trump was a cultist.

    It is always unreasonable to make claims that call for the operation of the mind.

    A children's Christian nursery rhyme is pretty damn Messianic in your eyes? You're joking, right?

    there are no books I have seen that say that or even describe that. I do know of some books that explain his presidency from Foreign policy to domestic policy. But the real truth underneath that amosity is that you don't like having a black person as president, do you?

    The real truth is you don't like having an orange man for a president isn't it?

    Everyone I don't like is racist..... A child's guide for arguing politics online

    Questioning is one thing, but being judgemental is something else. And the post I responded to, you were being extremely judgemental, hence the quote from the Bible in John 8:7

    Boring BS. Denial doesn't make what you don't want to hear go away....

    Are
    You confused again? I didn't make any bible quote. My higher power is mother nature, whose work has been more successful than that of any religion or ideology in history. World's best teacher. The only legitimate one.

    Some things are just wrong- and recognizing them as such is not being "judgemental", it's observing facts that must be recognized to make wise life choices. I think you need to learn about that.

    @FatBack didn't quote a children's Christian nursery rhyme. He quoted a messianic ditty written by a school teacher for her students to sing and record explicitly in praise of Obama.

    Where do all these anti-trump people find these cult mentality people at?

    They don't. They make that **** up to demonize the entire support system.

    It's attempted character assassination of an entire group based on lies. Partisan lies.

    "If we keep likening Trump supporters to a cult, people will be hesitant to show support for fear of being judged as the crazy we created."

    Well, they can kindly **** off. I support Trumps policies. Call me whatever made up names you want.

    Noticed she also had to get a personal dig in there and as much as call me a racist.

    That's completely unfounded as such slanderous accusations tend to be 99% of the time around here.

    Are you losing the argument? Just screamed that the other party is racist and declare yourself the winner!!!

    FAKE NEWS. There is no such thing as "Trumpism". This is just a fake word lefties made up to conflict republicans by making them think if they support Trumps policies that they are not true republicans but instead are "Trumpists" (also another FAKE word).
    Don't fall for these lefties Word-Fu. You are better than that! Don't take any of their bait! They ain't worth it!

    Yes, I noticed it but allowed you to fight that battle. I am also aware that the predominate rebuttals are 1. Where's your link, and 2. You're racist, though admittedly I was a bit surprised when @Alwayssa played the racist card.

    But not for the RW spin, B/S gas lighting reasons, many are flogging.

    One of the things the left is known for is the race card when they're losing the debate. Shame on you.

    Does the above Messianic video ring a bell for you?

    On another issue of race, are you supporting Herschel Walker and did you support Allen West and Mia Love. If you didn't, then the same race card you just played can be hurled at you. Also, when Mooch was disgusted about the room full of white men, did you object? How about when Oprah Winfrey wanted white people to die off? I know, I know, that's different.

    And in case you're interested, after Obama screwed this country on an international basis, the people below were the democrat candidates in 2020. Do you see something odd? What I see is nearly a field full of white people even though democrats were openly saying it was time to elect someone other than a white person. Do you recall any of that? By nominating Biden, a person could make the argument the left is racist and misogynistic. If the shoe was on the other foot I'm sure you would.

    You do know that your arguments are nothing new. Hitler, Stalin, and even Ferdinand Marcos have used your arguments. And I have heard them for nearly 4 decades now. But when it comes to totaritarian tendencies in politics, the group that wants it will always have a scapegoat or two to justify their regime. Get it now?


    To you maybe, but not to others. You have no idea what Mother Nature is capable of and your knowledge is extremely limited. For instance, in mother nature African Dwarf Frogs are hermaphrodites, which means they can change sexes. Other hermaphrodites can include 21 species of fish besides the Clownfish, snails, worms, the bearded dragon, and a few others. There is also documented evidence of homosexuality in mother nature, with some being in birds, fish, and reptiles. A lot of that goes back to some species being hermaphrodites. Because humans are part of mother nature, it not too unnatural for these types of biologicial behaviors to occur. Sure it's unusual and most really don't want to impose their lifestyle onto others, just want to be recognized for who they are. And yet, through "your observation" you fail to see that don't you and thus have to be extemely judgemental to any group that does not fit your myopic political idealogy.

    Comparing Trump with Jesus is WRONG!
    For many Republicans Trump is more trustful than Jesus:
