One man's attempt to resist the social pathology of anti-intellectualism, the vapid mindset of the "Cult of Personality," and the scourge of baseless, irrational thought. Failure is highly probable.
I read some article today, advancing the idea that the inurrection mob from 1/6/21 was not an outlier. It was just the latest eruption of white mob violence. And the author cited example after example.
There is nothing new about white American whites turning into violent mobs. But the body count and casualty list was short. This time.

Well, the last time I took the Jung-Keirsey Personality Test, the results informed me I was a Counselor Idealist. I normally would say it was my cynicism that led me to Law School. But yes, somewhere in the back of my mind, there still is a battered, hammered, starved, exhausted, nearly-fully defeated Idealist, that hopes for the day when he can regain what strength he formally had, if not thrive. I am not a "People Person." I am definitely "Wonky." I despise stupidity and moreso, deliberate ignorance. I despair the chance that either our Nation or the Whole World will ever get out of the seemingly-suicidal spiral of sinister and senseless suffocation of souls. I am prone to excessive alliteration and wordiness. I strive to restrain my baser nature, and give way to the Angels of my Better Nature, but every now and then, the Angels lose the battle. I truly have no use for phony people, or false heros. I abstain from what is known as the "Cult of Personality." I may not be from Missouri, but I believe, seeing is believing.
