Sticks and stones may break our bones, but if you're gonna throw around psychological jargon, ya better be prepared to back it up!
It's interesting to me, how the term, "psychopathic" is frequently used to describe Israel's leader, Netanyahu in a few Substack posts and replies to ‘em. People say the same about Donald Trump, just because he's a no-nonsense guy who won't take shit off ANYONE. It seems we wanna use disparaging diagnostic psychological terms against people we don't agree with, or just plain don't like.
At some point though, I think it's appropriate to offer specific instances of PROOF when bandying about these terms, so we can sound reasonably intelligent, and be taken seriously. In short, on what exactly, are we basing our lamen’s diagnoses?
I can make presumptions about Kamala Harris being a Borderline, based on her obvious lack of morals (fellating her way to the top of the political stage in affairs with married men), lack of character (constant self-contradictions and bold-faced lies on her positions pertaining to policy), lack of coherence (word salads, cognitive dissonance, deer in the headlight babblings which might be stage-fright driven, with perhaps some ADD thrown in) and bad, unpatriotic (even treasonous) decisions regarding the well-being of America and its citizens.
I might even be tempted to call Harris "psychopathic" just to score points with my readers, and help them vilify her as much as any other bimbo running for presidential office should be labeled... but no, to me, she merely seems Borderline Personality Disordered: A gal whose emotional development was stunted at around the age of 2. In short, she closely fits the diagnostic criteria.
Did I mention, Harris is a pathological liar (like Biden), appears to have little or no common sense, no relationship to cause and effect, no sense of healthy boundaries or impulse control (like her hubby who fucked his kids' nanny and got her pregnant while married to his first wife). Bottom line folks, "Birds of a feather flock together," and like attracts like. We are drawn to people who precisely match our OWN level of emotional development, and how we do Anything, is how we do Everything. So, in my not-so humble view, a BPD diagnosis fits for our dear little Kamalalalalalalala... and tis the season to be jolly! Cackle, cackle, cackle.
Here's the deal, and I don't state this because I was born to two Jews. I left the Jewish faith as a teenager, because in my opinion, they believed in a vengeful, wrathful god, which didn't fit at all, with My ideation of my deity. My God has a terrific sense of humor, incidentally... and during dire times of need, I've received audible replies to my prayers~ just like a good friend was in the room, speaking with me.
But I digress.
Ya don't fuck with Israelis! They train all kids at an early age to do battle, and many are raised on Kibbutz's, which instills in them a strong sense of community. When it comes to the Jewish people, they learned the FIRST time around with the evils of Hitler, that passivity was in NO way advantageous to 'em, and they fundamentally reject it like their very life depends on it, BECAUSE IT DOES.
Israel did NOT strike first to initiate this horrible war. Their enemies did, and adding insult to injury, they carried out this surprise attack on a Jewish holiday (holy day)! Can you GET any more amoral or sinister than this?? To not forcefully RETALIATE in response to this grievous act would have been unimaginable to these proud, God loving people... so, retaliate they did.
If someone dropped a bomb on Your home out of the clear blue, would YOU not be inclined to go after 'em with an unstoppable vengeance?? Have you any capacity for EMPATHY (the ability to identify with and relate to another's inner experiences, perspectives and pain)?? Maybe you oughta think about this, as you watch these violent college campus protests, and how American-born Jewish students are being attacked, solely for their faith.
Bottom line, ya don't poke a sleeping bear, unless you're fully prepared for whatever follows. Only a FOOL thinks otherwise. Frankly, I'd like to see Israel completely wipe Hamas off the map, and I'd cheer from the sidelines. Sorry... does this offend your sensibilities?? Too bad for you.
In today's upside-down, inside-out world, where men are imprisoned for defending others on a bus against an armed attacker, where people are jailed for DEFENDING their families and property, where people who were once lauded as HEROES when they guarded and protected the safety of innocent people in the face of vicious, brutal attacks by sociopaths, but are now prosecuted within the fullest extent of the law under this insane administration, we appear to have totally lost our Moral Compass!
What we've always known as morally RIGHT, is treated by our whacky administration as wrong, and what we've always known as morally WRONG, is sanctioned, permitted and encouraged by greedy, malevolent psychopaths (used appropriately, in this instance) who don't give a flying fuck about the sanctity of human life, and who value only the accumulation of war-wealth over any semblance of humanity.
If this post pisses you off, good. Maybe you’re not completely dissociated from your emotions, after all.
