Narratives, saints & psychopaths. Obama

Last edited Wed Dec 26, 2012, 12:47 AM - Edit history (1)

says he needs to be more vocal on his narrative and he does. Leaders and saints will lay out a narrative that inspires and lift those up who follow it. Bad things in people's lives will become easier to bear, especially when saints take on the darkness in folk's lives and transform it into light. Psychopaths will try and take over the narrative of the scapegoats they attack and fill their personal story with bull**** and blame. Think swiftboat veterans for truth or the bullying the NRA does when they try and convince gun control advocates that they are misinformed, don't really have the best interest of the public at heart so they should jjust shut up and let the NRA continue the arms race within the USA. Know the difference. Don't be shut up or shut out of the political process. Don't let them steal your narratve. And no, getting money for the already rich through tax cuts does not constitute light. Beware also of the psychopath pretending to be a saint. If they scapegoat anyone, they are not saints. Just in general stay away from people/organizations/'leaders' who need scapegoats.
