"Unity"

I don't need to explain anything to you.

There's another current thread that uses the term "unity" but under a different context. So rather than derail that one, let's try one that is specific to the term itself.

In that thread and pretty much all threads here, the term "unity" is scoffed at and mocked. No surprise. Personally, given this country's present condition, I thought it was dumb when Biden tried to use it when he was first elected. We're just not close enough to it to even discuss it right now.

Anyway, here's what I'm wondering: Since so many here are pretty much on the other side of the fence from unity, what would "disunity" look like to you? My guess is that you want to "beat" the other side and impose your will on them (with specific laws and legislation, I guess) going forward. Is that correct?

So can anyone here go into detail on what "anti-unity" would look like, in practice, on a day-to-day basis? Think out of the box and lay it out. What is the goal here?

Americans Agree Nation Is Divided on Key Values

Eight in 10 Americans, a new high, perceive the U.S. as being greatly divided on the most important values.

The only times our country has experienced unity was during times of extreme crisis.

9/11, Pearl Harbor, etc.

I have read a great deal about the early years of our republic and let me tell you, the disunity of those times make today seem like kumbaya.

That's you. You're too dumb to even suss out a clue.

I wonder why no one wants to just answer the question.

Well, I can guess why not, but I'd rather wait.

I just answered the question. Democrats will not allow 'Unity' within Congress. It's only when they are in the minority in Congress. When they are the majority they run roughshod over those of the minority. Ergo: Segregation. Racism, anti-Semitism, DEI, Lawfare, etcetera.,

You didn't understand the question.

Have You Ever Projected Yourself Onto Others?

Projection is when one sees the traits that they find unacceptable in themselves in others. Learn about the origin and impact of the defense mechanism projection.

That's not an answer. That's standard magaturd hyperbole and bilge.

You didn't understand the question.

It's not a very clear one. How are you defining unity? Agreeing to live peacefully, for the most part, in a society where differences of opinion are settled with legislation? Because that's mostly everyone.

I thought this was about disunity. Which I believe involves continuing to self segregate, violence and ill will towards fellow citizens and non citizens alike.

That's where it goes wrong though. Most differences of opinion don't need to be "settled with legislation". And shouldn't be. That's the opposite of living peacefully. It's one group forcing their values on another.

You don't self segregate? You have an open door policy at your house?

But that's just like your opinion, man.....


I don't see the sense in crying about which opinions are really important and who gets to have them. I just find those conversations hilariously ironic.

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

You don't self segregate?

Everyone self segregates. This isn't about me.

 

[Curried Goats]

Everyone self segregates. This isn't about me.

So what's it about? Human nature?

What??

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

So what's it about? Human nature?

Quite likely.

 

[Curried Goats]

What??

You gave me your opinion about what legislation is important, just like everyone else will. We all have an opinion about what's legislatively important.

 

[Curried Goats]

Quite likely.

So Mac is crying that humans are doing human shit? That's pretty much my read on every one of his threads.
