Just generalizations based on observation. You are an aberration with regard to the critical thought part, but you have to admit that you are surrounded by as many retards as you are fighting against. That is all just background though. The topic is pride. Do you think the left hates pride?
Does the left hate pride is equivalent to asking does the right hate diversity.

Both "sides" have their vocal idiots.

No the left doesn't hate pride... they may hate arrogance though.


Your framework is idiotic though. Every point you try to make is pretty ignorant and the real question is about your ability to observe without bias. It seems your observation is flawed, maybe work on that? It's the issue at hand.

It is well established that the left has no genuine interest in liberty, detests responsibility and is averse to critical thought not unlike most of humanity in general. However beyond the left's favored state of failure and associated dependence, it occurred to me this morning that in the true spirit of self-loathing, the left most abhors pride.

I'm pretty sure the left is not exactly hateful of sexism, but way more aware of it. And way more apt to communicate without it. Making it appealing to certain demographics.

Quote:
The negative version of pride (Latin, superbia) is considered, on almost every list, the original and most serious of the seven deadly sins: the source of the others- thus it is able to father directly and/or indirectly all sin. Also known as hubris (from ancient Greek ὕβρις),or futility, it is identified as dangerously corrupt selfishness, the putting of one's own desires, urges, wants, and whims before the welfare of people.

In even more destructive cases, it is possessing the irrational belief that one is automatically and essentially better or more important than others, failing to acknowledge the accomplishments of others, and excessive admiration of the personal image or self (especially forgetting one's own lack of divinity, and refusing to acknowledge one's own limits, faults, or wrongs as a human being).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_deadly_sins#Pride

pretty sure thats the definition I've always used to define pride in a sense when it's negative. though a lot of people have made two versions of pride

needless to say, putting the needs of ones self above others is pretty bad when your dictating what others must absolutely do in order to protect yourself............................. taking my life, or me taking someone else's life, because their or mine is better for example... its the root of all sin. And creates negative pain in the stream of consciousness, that oscillates back and forth. No side will ever win in eternity, and only peace and harmony will be reached if a steady even vibration or balance is attained. Sadly a flatline produces no feedback in a holographic system so life does not exist without fluctuation. The purpose of life is to achieve a vibrational state.

there's plenty people in the world who support me (for example), and plenty more, without dictation.

the problem is the right is knee-jerk responding to stuff like that and viola you have the conservative hate mongering machine

I never once in my life overtly lobbied for or fought for my own rights or political agenda. In fact when I did fight for selfish reasons I failed and had very bad ... karma? until I became aware that it was more important to fight for everyones right to be free and that's when my own personal healing process and realization of shame came in. I mean, I went through a lot of shit around 9/11 and such, would have been happy to have joined the end of times in warfare. But when I turned that around and started caring about the people I served with that changed the ballgame. I'm probably making some erroneous logical statement here. But the point is... when I loved my friends in arms, I began to love myself and want to see better for us all. So that "We" didn't have to keep suffering eternally.

I don't consider myself prideful. Or "superior". Just freerer and more wise to give words of wisdom and teach and to move towards a better world where people aren't ruled by their pride, whatever label it may take.

For a long time the LGBT pride thing was detrimental to me (if we're going to talk about pride in that sense).

Hell even being overly prideful about ones own definition of pride itself to the point of hurting other people because we may wan't them to have the same definitions. Well that's sinful. And a path to darkness. Pain and suffering.

my point: this whole conversation is asinine; criticizing the left for hating pride implies the right is hypocritical and impious.

I think, seeing like 1 or 2 LGBT flags only during the LGBT appreciation month only in the clubs that serve LGBT people vs the 200,000 rebel flags and Jesus Saves signs (everywhere all over) is indicative of the pride issues people have with themselves and their faiths.

My idea for a billboard.. imagine this...

Does it matter if its a boy or a girl? Picture of a cute baby. Nothing more said.

Could be for anti-abortion causes am-i-right?

I might also be a bit bootyhurt because you know, there are actual problems in the south that need to be addressed, rather than shoving king james bible verses into discriminatory laws that support one biblical religion over all others. U know.
Your more likely to be killed by a CisMuslim, quit worrying about peaceful Christians. Jeebuz

I may end up working for a Christian institution. IDK yet. I've considered it. Not ruling it out just because it's a private corp and Christian.

I think, back to the point about pride here. A lot of people confuse pride and love.

Its fine to show love and to demonstrate it, thats when your being kind and good about it.

If you think I hate that.. well. I'm sorry I wan't you to feel loved. Not hated. For real.

I just want love to. I think what happened last month was pretty bad. And I feel bad about it. And this politics trolling has really been damaging. I'm sure all around. It's uncool [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I'm not proud of that. Or being a troll anymore. I've changed.
