No, it's not conjecture, it's a deduction. You conflated anger with bitterness. That can only be the self-destructive kind of anger. Maybe you are the one who doesn't understand or couldn't handle justified anger visited on an abuser? Outside your comfort zone? Well that's a pity because you'll just keep giving people advice that will leave the recipient sad, bitter, confused, depressed and maybe even suicidal. If those are chamomile flowers you should make yourself a nice cup of tea, chill out a light some incense to the Buddha for the courage to handle real anger.
I can tell you are talking about a different sort of anger than I am because you link it with bitterness and 'consuming' the holder. That's the frustrated passive-aggressive anger that, along with bitterness, is the result of not expressing the righteous and appropriate anger. The model up until now has been for therapists and counsellors to ignore anger and treat it as a pathology when in fact anger, the justified kind, is a means to healing. People who don't express the appropriate anger to an abuser live frustrated depressed lives and sometimes they can't live with it at all. They are now calling this state post-traumatic embitterment disorder.
If a person is wronged they need to recognise that and let the abuser have it. None of this bullsh"t about 'getting over it' or 'letting go' or 'getting closure'. Those are suicide inducing cliches that make the therapists and counsellers feel 'safer' and less 'uncomfortable' around their client.
Someone treated you badly and you still like them? Oh dear, where would I begin? I'm assuming you were treated badly by a parent? How else would you confuse someone treating you badly with someone you should love? The first thing you need to do is hate the sh"t out of the person who hurt you, in both cases. Don't mind that hippy sh"t about 'getting closure' and all that. Hate has a place and it really sounds like you have misplaced yours. Get it out, dust it off and let them have it ... both barrels!
When you cast your vote you gave your implied consent to the State to make decisions on your behalf. Therefore, when the State decided on how much of your money to give to the RTE presenters they did so with the imagined authority you gave them. Simples!
How would we hallucinate that a hundred people in Dublin have authority over us if RTE and the other Statist media didn't keep creating the hallucination for us on a daily basis?
Imagine if they sold us the Nigerian scammers. We'd get a letter telling us to give up our bank details and we'd do it because we hallucinated they had authority over us. I wonder how much the Nigerians would pay RTE plastic heads for that service?
The cultural Marxists have been very successful with the hippies. They've fallen hook, line and sinker for the whole deal. They say they are apolitical but everything that comes out of their mouth is standard leftist statism. You are not very welcome as an 'out' straight white male in their company, especially because of the Feminist crones who pull their strings (and I don't mean those things that hang from their shoulders)
I hear it's the juju men that are after you now for insulting their 'tribe'. Will they be in a van or pushing a cart with all their belongings the poor victims
Ok. My comment is me laughing at you saying Charles Darwin came up with Big Bang theory. I'm laughing more now that you persist with the silly idea in complete ignorance of your .... ignorance. You see Darwin was a naturalist, not a phsysist, and he came up with theories on evoloution and natural selection, not the Big Bang theory which didn't 'evolve' until long after he was dead.
