I’m from Korea, and we impeached our president last year, mostly because he declared martial law, but he was also a terrible president, and no one really liked him being there, even his own party.
Why can’t the U.S do the same, if Donald Trump is so bad? Why are some Americans even supporting him?
I definitely think there was more honor back in those days. I mean, thieves have always existed, but I remember even my grandfather said he never even had a lock on the front door, or needed a lock on his car, or his bike, wherever he went. People didn’t steal shit from people. At least in the city where he lived. (It was a very Christian and religious place back then; everyone went to church.)
The thieves and criminals that existed back then were truly vile though. These days, someone might break a window and carry off your TV. In those days, the thieves would take everything you owned and then press you into lifelong servitude, beating you if you ever disobeyed, they would even steal your children away from you and do the same to them.
And nobody did shit about it. Why? Because these thieves were “honorable” because there were “gentlemen’s agreements” and “decorum” and “civility” meant that they were allowed to do whatever the hell they wanted to those who were considered “racially inferior.”
If that’s what honor means, then fuck honor. Fuck this civility fetishism, this nostalgia for a time of greater injustice and oppression. Half the problems we have today is because of these evil and idiotic founders setting up a stupid dysfunctional system, in some ways designed to be dysfunctional because they were afraid of “the masses” voting according to their own interests and freeing the slaves the elites relied on for their lavish lifestyles.
That’s… not what I meant by honor, no. 😳
Source?
Source on what? That the founders owned slaves?
Christianity these days is a whole different animal.
At least Christian extremism like you see in America.
