Cletus can't fathom no sucha thing. Is this yankee interloper now the enemy and a some kinda tard?

I'ma have to axe Caleb Festus McTractor, because individual opinions matter.

#FlipbackNukka

Historically, (putting on my professorial glasses and bowtie)
the core believers and the common understanding of a thing
is considered to be the baseline. The norm, if you will.

Offshoots of that baseline are seen as heretical or deviant
and are usually subject to harsh objection and ridicule.

See the various branches of Christianity.

At the bottom of the pot though the two (or more) factions,
(still using Christianity as a model) have the same goal and
purpose in common. The differences are inconsequential in the end.

So now we have this Q business with all this Satanic stuff and
islands and swimming pools and ditches in New Mexico and dancing the Macarena
and that is supposed to be incorporated into the regular belief
system without any friction because some folks buy it?

Nothing has ever worked like that.
You can't call yourselves victims when there is some great
deviance from the norm (*Rush) because it is NORMAL for there
to be push-back against deviancy.

You can't claim to be victims when y'all are the ones what come up with the crazy new stuff.
Personally, I chalk it up to collective frustration.
Folks were mad about Obama and the Democrats so they
play this game where they imagine the worst things possible
about them... they is SATANISTS and they EAT KIDS and STEAL KIDS
and you know the rest. I'm sure it's cathartic. I think it's silly.

(Removes bowtie, tosses into trash can, opens new beer)

If y'all are pro-Trump then good on ya.
So are folks that don't buy the Q business.

It's us against them, not us against y'all.

But what if the regular belief system is wrong?

To play off your "Christian model" theme, yes, those "deviants" that broke from the early forms of the church were considered heretical. Were they wrong, or simply the minority? Minority doesn't equal wrong.

When everybody on earth believed the earth was flat, one guy stood up and said the earth was round. He was, at the time, considered a kook, a heretic, and a deviant. But was he wrong?

Truth is truth. Belief is not truth.

You can't call yourselves victims...

Oh, make no mistake. I don't consider "us" victims. I only point out truths when confronted with the "victim mentality" of your side. And it abounds.

I find it hilarious that "we" are considered the aggressors, trolls, name-callers, etc when the slings and arrows began on day one and continue to this day from those you call the adherents of "the normal belief system".

The hypocrisy is vast.

It's us against them, not us against y'all.

Now there's a truth we can agree on.
