Homo sapien, whose name is derived from the latin, “wise man”, has navigated 300,000 years of evolution to rise to the top of Earth’s food chain, yet is unable to recognize that its most formidable enemy is the division of its own species between empathy and ignorance.

The complexity of the endeavors that result in the successes and failures of my lifetime, will never fit neatly inside of your generalized, and projective opinion of who you like to pretend that I am.– Bobby Duthu
Donald J. Trump is a wedge being driven into the bedrock of America by a hammer of fools. He is the antithesis of the greatness to which America strives, and the day that I pledge allegiance to him will be the day that I die.

There are good people in this world to be sure ; But not nearly enough to offset the fact that humans are the scourge of this Earth, and are wholly undeserving of the inimitable life that it provides.

In, or out of the context of religion, there is no example of ideal character superior to that of the teachings of Jesus in the Christian Bible.

It is likely no coincidence that those who preach most passionately against living in the past, are often those in greatest need of relief from the consequences of accountability.– Bobby Duthu
If the application of knowledge gained through experience results in improvement and/or success, then the fact that I was raised conservative and transformed to liberal/moderate as I gained wisdom, provides some evidence that for politics and sociology, progress is to the left.

Now that I know the U.S. Constitution is only as good as those elected to enforce it, I’m not sure if I’m more concerned about our future, or impressed that it worked for 230 years.

We must stop wasting time searching for, and then accepting alternative motives for mass murder or suicide as if mental illness has yet to be discovered.
No one kills themselves or others in a state of good mental health.

The sad truth is that until those who thirst for autocratic rule suffer significant personal loss as a direct result of its policies, the importance of thoughtful reverence for our principles as a nation will remain enigmatic.

I’m not disliked by anyone that I admire.
So if you don’t like me, there’s a better than average chance that I couldn’t care less.

There’s a difference between ideology that differs from yours, and ideology that violates who you are as a person.

Accusations that I’m temperamental, argumentative, aggressive, intolerant, excitable, stubborn, or hard-headed, cannot change the fact that we don’t get along because you’re an insufferable jackass.

Because the Trump voters of 2016 are also, “the market” of today, I fear that the amoral population of America has taken us past the threshold of single-nation sustainability.
