Instead hate on them for shamelessly trying to cash in with a lame book.

if virgil had to totally Log Off for his mental health, especially considering how invested he was in the primaries - it’s pretty lovely to hold that against him at this point. yeah he should have responded to people or w/e but it’s just cruel to keep harping on it after he’s been back for months

lovely country full of lovely people who believe every problem is your fault and any response just proves you deserved it. Every new piece of information is just a tool to win a lovely argument.

It's a form of triangulation - the military is generally Republican so if you run a troop you can win over Republicans.

Republicans want a strong man to lick the boots of and Democratic veteran candidates just babble on about duty, service, and honor.

What is the point of the constant drumbeat in both fiction and nonfiction of trauma, acceptance, trauma, acceptance. Learn the stock excuses: it made me stronger, it taught me what was really important, etc. Don’t actually try to stop bad things from happening. Learn to feel happy about them. Crowd out stories where trauma ruins people so everyone else can believe everything will always turn out okay.

Now it’s about accepting the trauma you’ve caused. Become a happy killer.

Speaking of Du Troit, the focus group reminded me of him, and how he's walking proof that these conservatives are all enormous crybabies. They think any situation they're not being catered to is persecution. Oh wow, you have to hold your tongue because you know your opinion is in the minority and you don't want to catch hell for it? Welcome to real life.

They’re like children whose entire world is defined by praise and scolding. The mere absence of praise is enough to make them feel like their world is falling apart. Scolding just makes them resentful because, unlike actual children, they are incapable of learning. It is only a weapon to show others the limits of their worlds.

Secret service theory doesn't line up with the wounds only Oswald from the depository does (and the difficulty of the shots is vastly overstated by a lot of pro-conspiracy sources). The conspiracy has to revolve around getting Oswald up there.

Every conspiracy theory that adds extra shooters or extra bombs just muddies the waters. A CIA asset shot the president and then a second CIA asset shot the first. It’s not that complicated.

The liberal mind breaks down all information into raw material for arguments and excuses. The idea “annoying =mentally ill” will now cause them to uncontrollably tell anyone who annoys them to get therapy. It’s bad and they know it’s bad but they can’t stop. They’ve turned themselves into monsters that scab over any bad feelings with excuses.

I also agree the show is flippant in revealing everyone’s trauma and making everyone into a role model of positive masculinity. But if it convinces dudes to talk about their feelings more or go to therapy as a side effect, then that’s a positive. Maybe TV shows aren’t the proper medium to evangelize that message and maybe it’s too heavy handed, but most men are dumb and emotionally stunted (myself included), so you can’t always use a light touch.

I don’t watch these shows but hearing about them they sound like they are about the use of trauma as a tool to make people docile. Stop protesting and society will permit your trauma to be acknowledged.

Protesting your trauma means you want something to change. Nothing is allowed to change. Therefore your trauma doesn’t exists because your protests are invalid.
