I''ll give folks my stoney armchair shrinkeydink on the Hulkster, and those like him.
Ain't no point arguing any of it with hulkster, hes a true believer, and you are just as likely to break his faith as the dalai lama's. Its not about facts, science, justice, honesty, or any of those feel good words. You can point him to government websites, archives, NGO literature. None of that is really at issue. Its filler. Its there to give his righteous indignation substance.
Its about being on what he sees to be the right side*. You wouldn't convince a jihadist to change his ways over this here medium of pixels and tubes, and he's just as faithful as the fool running into a cafe wearing a bomb. His faith gives him comfort, as it tends to do for those fortunate enough to still have any.
Hes just of a different, secular flock. He's faithful to the group he identitfies with. Nothing surprising. Pretty basic human nature. Billions of people do it every day, Hulkster still has faith in
people. Just his side's people, but he still has it. Some of us have lost that.
Some of us suspect what tragically flawed creatures we all really are. Some of us say "hang the lot of it, let the idiots have it out, keep your head down, but also on a swivel, look out for you and your own, and hope for the fucking best while trying to be ready for the worst. If we're lucky, we can rebuild something from the ashes, and if we're unlucky, hey we at least were there to see it happen." Some of us have doubts about where our leaders are truly taking us, and since we're not willing to jump on the bandwagon, we're as good as the enemy hes built in his mind,
...And that enemy seems to be the stereotypical /pol/tard.
Really, its best to sit and watch, as he battles the same kind of faithful from the right**. Its just some of us get irritated when he conflates us with the strawman he so desperately battles. Especially when, aside from a few issues, we'd probably get along famously. Maybe, at heart,
that is why it gets kinda annoying to get caught up in his "everyone who doesn't agree with me must want to have sex with old republicans" thing.
*correct side - not those mean ole nazi republicans
**actual icky meanie doodoo headed republicans.
There. My weed clouded crystal ball has provided insight. Its probably dumb, cuz I've cut way the hell back, my tolerance has gone to shit, and I'm lit, but I'm okay with that, because that's often where you'll find yourself being the most honest.
This shit is just the internet (little i, this shit no longer deserves respect, come at me
@Null) and you fuckers take it far too seriously. On this site, of all site, you fuckers take it all too seriously. I'm gonna go eat cold fried chicken.
