(4,711 posts)who isn't on the campaign staff, doesn't speak for the candidate, and isn't connected in any way? Well, that just ties in to my main point, which is this: when I see people being idiots, I tell them so. I am, however, an equal opportunity source of such telling. So don't feel special or singled out when I tell you that this whole BLM fiasco has been an episode of almost unutterable idiocy.
In my view, it is you who can't climb down from your prideful perch and admit that maybe, just maybe, BLM reached too far and slimed a good man. Maybe everyone -isn't- out to get you, racially speaking. But for that to be true, you'd have to admit you were wrong, and you can't do that. So you'll let people goad you into turning your cause against it's best interests, because you'll be damned if anyone's gonna tell you what those interests are, or even get you to question whether you're acting in them.
I don't care anymore. I'm done. Shoot yourself in the foot all damned day, in the end it's no skin off my back. I'll be fine whoever is elected. I want it to be a candidate who is good for everybody, but if you can't get over yourself for long enough to do right by yourself, all I can do is shrug and watch the show.
