It's instinctive, I think, for us to care about how we are viewed by others. Of course, 'care about' is a pretty vague description for the wide variety of meanings we may find and reactions we can have.

Notepad is a handy little text editor. Come with Windows.

OK, I'll unpack the reference to feedback loops there. I see one's choice of metaphors as both a result of how one views something, and an elaboration that, once created, reinforces such view, rendering it all the more habitual.

These two things appeared on my facebook feed today. And I am in fact a liberal, just one violently opposed to Islam.

I would advise against watching the below. Iranian backed militias execute 11 year old child. Seriously, don't watch this. A child is murdered.

Honestly. The only thing we should give these people is death

Your hatred is their power.

A pathetic sort of power, actually, but it seems like a good idea to them.

The only people I hate that much are the Republicans.

They are the real enemies of America.

I can't get as worked up over people destroying stuff 6,000 miles away when there are people Hell bent on destroying this country right here at home.

As for you being a "liberal" matteos, so far you have made 5 posts on this forum and every one of them could have been made by a bagger, so as far as I am concerned, that Jury is still out.

One of your more spiteful posts and as stupid as anything ever said by the dumbest of 'Baggers. It's Louie Gohmert stupid, in fact.

I couldn't care less about what you think of me.

You obviously don't care that religious nutjobs murder children, behead Americans with blunt knives and sell women and children into sex slavery, commit rape, genocide etc etc.

I know what kind of liberal you are. A Chamberlain liberal. Turn your back on crimes against humanity just because it is not happening right next to you.

It is not hatred but cold, calculated strategy. I am not about to waste my emotions on some one or a group that are beyond human empathy.
