Benjamin Franklin once wrote of our need to make people uncomfortable in their poverty. Einstein said all things are relative. Combining these two concepts would suggest that we need to also make people uncomfortable in their stupidity. We should also make people uncomfortable in their mindless hatred.

If we are to follow this idea, to employ its relative outcome of driving people out of their hatred and stupidity, in the same manner we drive people from poverty. It will require, what many will deem harsh, brutal honesty.

The latest example, and frankly a festering pet peeve of mine, is the ridiculous charges of racist remarks from the President which were nothing of the kind. False claims of racism, are in reality the real racism. This claim is used to silence opposition. My greatest issue with this, is that when the charge is so overly used, as a faux weapon, the real instances are diminished as they become background noise. Meaning real victims, are ignored and real villains get away with it to commit such real offense again.

When you call the racists out for false claims of racism, you'll be called a hypocrite. To my mind, so be it. If being treated as they are treating others, bothers them, and they call you a hypocrite, the end goal of making them uncomfortable in their stupidity, or hate, is being reached.

This concept would apply to many facets of the tactics used today. ANTIFA for example, claim to be anti fascist while in fact and action, being fascists. Feminists, who claim sexual discrimination, are the biggest promoters of the same. And the list could go on, all with the same end result. The real problems are buried in the background and do not get addressed.

So I say, when you see false claims, make it known. When you see hatred unfounded, call it out. When you see stupidity, make them realize it. However, to do this, you need to avoid becoming what we are battling against. Know without emotion, that what you go after is based on reality, truth, logic and basic common sense. Be able to absorb the inevitable insults and bombard them with questions to draw out the simple truth buried in their guarded, egotistical and thick skulls.

Like poverty, when people are uncomfortable being stupid, they will seek intelligence. I refuse to believe, that they are incapable of greatness because of all the excuses both made and bestowed upon them.

Like poverty, when people are uncomfortable with hatred, just because their cool friends have them joining some mindless cause to blame others for their plight, or for things that can not be changed. They will seek better views of the world with far less stress worrying what others deem a important. Like other forms of false noise, real issues get ignored in the background. And with the same false narratives, real crisis is dismissed, and ridiculed. Until it runs over, can not be ignored, and has caused for more damage than neccessary.

There are no perfect people in this world. Only perfect intentions. Those who deem themselves perfect are perfect, because they make perfectly good excuses for why they are so screwed up.

The common thread to all of this effort to silence opposition is left wing ideology. Though there is no race to an ideology, no more than their is a religion. It will be called racist to oppose the left. This is the case, either due to the left installed indoctrination program known as the US Department of Education, or blind following of touch feely promises that never cross reality.

We need to return to self sufficiency, individual rights, and imposition being viewed as the rude attribute it is.

Just a common man's view.

“I am for doing good to the poor, but...I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it. I observed...that the more public provisions were made for the poor, the less they provided for themselves, and of course became poorer. And, on the contrary, the less was done for them, the more they did for themselves, and became richer.” - Ben Franklin

I like it.
