I find it most useful to think of it in terms of Nietzsche and master-slave morality; there are those who subscribe to master morality (MAGA), and those who subscribe to slave morality (Democrats).
I think that's the clearest distinction. There are two competing conceptions of what is good and bad. In master morality, which aligns with the ancient greeks, goodness and virtue is strength, health, the will to power, and your ability to exert your will on your environment, thereby allowing you to protect and provide for yourself and your loved ones. There is no absolute morality, you make your own morality. This is why Trump can grab pussies, burn down capitols, leave national secrets scattered around the floor of his resort, tell Brian Kemp to "find more votes", etc... he is good because he is powerful and constantly provides victories for his 'clan'.
What Nietzsche called slave morality, on the other hand, aligns more closely with ancient Christians (though not modern ones) and I think is the predominant good/bad conceptualization among Democrats. Here, good and bad are abstract concepts-- to be 'good' often means living a life of virtue, humility, helping other people/charity, the golden rule, dealing in a fair and honest manner. You can be the biggest fuckin loser in town and still be 'good'. You can be a slave, and still be good. Your king can be powerful but if he is also 'evil' according to your abstract morality, then he is not a good king (see the purity-testing inherent in wokeness).
Master moralists will laugh in the face of a slave moralist when they say something like "that's not fair!". Slave moralists will laugh in the face of a master moralist when they say something like "fucking cancel culture witch-hunt" after they get caught and ostracized for fucking somebody over or otherwise doing something antisocial.
Society has always had both parties and always will. It needs both. The south park guys summed it up best with their soliloquy on dicks, pussies, and assholes. A society run by a bunch of dicks can't function very well, nor can a society run by a bunch of pussies. A society run by assholes isn't a society. |
i get what you're saying but you aren't helping yourself or anyone else by adhering to falsehoods and half truths.
I can tell you're smarter then that.
Trump's line from the access hollywood tape is speaking with regard to "Gold Digging Sluts" in which he states verbatim that "They let you grab them by the pussy" This is colloquially referred to as "Guy Talk" among real men. the other guy in the video is Billy Bush (yes, that bush) and he is a friend of Trumps who got railroaded out of his job over the tape which he did not intend to use
Leftist burned down buildings in many cities during his first presidency
The FBI emptied out boxes onto the floor and then took pictures as if that's how they found it, every single former president is in possession of classified documents
Trump never told kemp to manufacture enough votes to secure a win, "find the votes" was a reference to asking Brad Raffensperger the georgia secretary of state to investigate the discrepancy between expected voter turnout and the published results
you don't have to believe me you can look it up yourself if you want
or you could just observe that after the entire weight of the US justice department came down on trump, the only thing they could pin on him is porn star hush money, which was only a crime based on some white collar questionable book keeping that most businesses are guilty of.
