In my experience, when people feel as though Other Things™ about them redeem them in light of their constantly shared positions on x y or z......they never stop to consider that they might want to spend more time sharing the redeeming things, and less time opining on the demon's resume bullshit, or...you know, just dropping the latter entirely. OFC, Other Things™ may not be capable of redeeming them, as well, there's always that possibility. The urge to externalize this little interpersonal drama is embarrassing and unproductive. Often framed as:
"Can't you look past my beliefs!"
-Well, no, not when your beliefs are horrid and you allow them to hurt other people...why should anyone look past that ? That -is- who you are.
"Can't you look past my beliefs!"
-Well, no, not when your beliefs are horrid and you allow them to hurt other people...why should anyone look past that ? That -is- who you are.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
