racocn8 comments on Sep 14, 2021:

It is my understanding that Antifa is not an organization and not organized. It is a philosophy of opposing fascism and fascists. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifa_(United_States) To the extent that they harass and oppose the white nationalist militia wannabee's, I wish them well.

As I understand this intellectually it is also untrue of the moment.

racocn8 comments on Sep 12, 2021:

Certain personalities appear to prefer disinformation (lies). The fear and concerns are really there, but the people have lost the conventional understanding of the world and reality. In part, their religion has brainwashed them into this state. They reject and revile true information coming from reliable sources. Their outlook is one of protest and rebellion against the existing order. They embrace membership in the conspiracy cult. The best we've come up with for that are drugs and therapy on a case by case basis. Good luck with that.

That way we can yank these treasonous MAGA idiots off the government teat. We should especially make sure that anti-vaxxers are removed from the FBI, NSA, CIA, etc. The competence of these agencies is sure to soar.

As to the photon/Higg's particle combination, it would be an Higg's particle at a slightly higher energy. But I believe Higg's particles decay super-fast, so not much to talk about. I don't know that photons ever confer their timeless nature on any particles.

It seems to be the same old story of rejecting concepts or people out of ever more stringent litmus tests. Humanism is associated with x because y said so, so throw it all out. The bigger issue is that of practicality on the ground. The US might be seen as one of the most advanced countries, and yet we see intractable political problems - - intractable insofar as humanism is in no position to even work towards changing their causes. Really, Humanism is a dodge from the responsibility of fighting to stop the evildoers. Were the Resistance fighters Humanists? Your reference to the Borg is well taken in my opinion. Young people no longer have an option except to plug into the corporation dictated crypto-fascism. We are already enslaved if we have no options to participate in the REAL decision-making.

The principles of triage are based on survivability and don't take into account how the patients came to be in need. From the perspective that does consider the outrageousness of their behavior, the principles of triage seem unfair. The anti-vax conduct is so offensive that it does invite the proposition of denying care altogether. Anti-vaxxers that recklessly threaten others with death plainly exhibit depraved indifference, a felony in many jurisdictions. If our society functioned properly, anti-vaxxers would be charged and sentenced accordingly. However, the GQP has chosen to politicize this issue as a stepping stone to approved violence and civil war. The democrats don't really have the power nor balls to stop them.

These contacts then disappear as soon as you renew.

The cult becomes their support system. Take a good look and try to understand the challenge of governing a population which includes these people. The weird beliefs can become a dangerous hazard, as was all too clear on Jan 6. But consider the impact of Maga cultists on Covid mortality and the economic knee-capping that comes with it. And, their paranoia supports, oddly enough, a support for fascism. Yes, they are an existential threat to us and the species.
