You cannot convince me that devotion to a flag/song supersedes devotion to the rights guaranteed American citizens in The Constitution. No one can be that blinded /politically partisan. No one. Except perhaps Donald John Trump. Right?

I wonder how many folks actually are that unpatriotic.

Trump supporters seem to think that's A-OK with them. If you are one of them is it REALLY A-OK with you too?In Hollywood actresses who were sexually abused /attacked by powerful wealthy fat old ugly perverted Harvey Weinstsein were threatened with getting no work. Some of them left the acting business. Some carried on after the attacks but a conspiracy of silence over 30 years existed. Everyone knew what was going on. Some pretend ignorance now because it so disgusting to have known and kept silent. They are tarnished/tainted/shameful.So you either do what I tell you to do/let me do whatever I want you to do OR you will never work in this town again. How low is that? Ugly fat wealthy powerful OLD men who can't get women to love them the honorable old-fashioned way FORCE them to comply. Bill Cosby, Roger Ailes, Harvey Weinstein, Bill O'Reilly, Donald Trump.

Shouldn't you always remain true to you and screw whomever it is who wants to manipulate you into becoming like him/her? Why?

One evening a thief visited the hut only to discover there was nothing to steal. Ryokan returned and caught him. “You have come a long way to visit me,” he told the prowler, “and you should not return empty-handed. Please take my clothes as a gift.” The thief was bewildered. He took the clothes and slunk away. Ryokan sat naked, watching the moon. “Poor fellow,” he mused, “I wish I could have given him this beautiful moon." less

The selfless and the selfish. The Yin/Yang. I suppose there are middlers too who do some of both. But why do some people need CONSTANT approval while others seemingly need none but their own knowledge of what they've done? Is something lacking in those who are never satisfied with doing good in itself and need everyone to know about it and tell them how wonderful they are and keep patting them on the back? T'is a puzzlement. Isn't it? less

And why didn't the same people cry foul about China supporting Bill Clinton's 1996 re-election campaign (as described below)?From the Wall Street Journal...Americans worried about Russia’s influence in the 2016 election have seized on a handful of Facebook ads—as though there weren’t also three 90-minute debates, two televised party conventions, and $2.4 billion spent on last year’s campaign. The danger is that bending facts to fit the Russia story line may nudge Washington into needlessly and recklessly regulating the internet and curtailing basic freedoms.After an extensive review, Facebook has identified $100,000 of ads that came from accounts associated with Russia.Analyzing the pattern of expenditures, and doing some back-of-the-envelope math, it’s clear this was no devilishly effective plot. Facebook says 56% of the ads ran after the election, reducing the tally that could have influenced the result to about $44,000. It al... less
