smittyoneeach's Journal: Megalothymia

Fukuyama defined megalothymia as a compulsive need to feel superior to others.

Now, I'm just dirt. Some may want to accuse me of feeling superior, but that, too is vanity. Other on here I could name, though. . .

The south will rise again!

You want to mimic bigots, you're bound to to get tagged.

Re:

[smittyoneeach]

Who are the bigots in this equation? The people minding their own business, or the bullies?

You're little 'role reversal' gag doesn't fly. It's just the new Jim Crow.

Re:

[smittyoneeach]

You say "role reversal" as though it held some meaning. Baffled. What history are you envisioning here, and how is bullying ever justified?

Well, they already feel (morally) superior. (Just as do I over them.) I think what we're seeing now is more them being emboldened by how much success they're having and how they don't want to waste this momentum.

I'm thinking that gay marriage will, indirectly, kill off religious freedom in America. Not because gay marriage itself is a threat to it, but because Progressives have no intention of ever stopping trying for even more "progress".

Karl Marx viewed the Catholic Church as his biggest threat to subjugating the world to his version of "fairness". His acolytes are doing his bidding.

The attack on Christianity is no accident.

Re:

That's because Marx preached "The Kingdom of God, hold the God."
