Emotions are intrinsically good and bad

The way TD posts is representative of how women tend to relay themselves online. I've been wrong before, but even then I doubted the poster disclosed the real gender.

Unless TD is a gay male, of course, since gay men and women tend to post in the same styles.

Now breathe.

I guess TD considers me "beyond help" since he/she is obsessed with emotions and I struggle to even understand emotions.

Then I'm just not understanding the problem here.  All I am asking is for you to fully read that post and then get back to me.  If there is still that problem, then we can work it out.

I think we've established that already...lol.  No amount of reading what I've already read is going to change my comments.  I'm asking you to point to a single value judgement that is clearly one or the other of your proposed categories.  I'm asking you to provide an example which demonstrates the distinction in the first place. Understand?  Without that, then the premise is unsound. I have no examples, and no reason to believe that it's true.
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!

It is. I was rude to them. I was a dick because I forget sometimes that strangers don't know what I'm like so don't know that I mean no harm yet.

It's because I'm an R-tard isn't it?





I can't imagine TD being very tolerant of people with emotional difficulties if he's so willing to ignore me already when I'm such a fucked up mess.

Maybe he/she thinks I'm a troll.

Well, TD, I'm the second most active poster on this website and I've been here since 2008.... so I'm definitely not a troll. Talk to me.

Maybe he/she is unimpressed by my intelligence because I'm being rather silly. Oh how wrong he/she is.

If you're rude, so am I, because I don't see how you're rude at all.

Emotional difficulties does not equate to the R word. Shame on you for even thinking that.

There were two categories I pointed out.  The 1st category was the thought form of value judgments.  These are value judgments that come about through our way of thinking such as thinking that it is a good day today or thinking something is horrible.  The 2nd category of value judgments would be the emotional value judgments.  These value judgments are the emotions themselves.  If you felt a positive emotion, then that is always a good emotional value judgment and if you felt a negative emotion, then that is always a bad emotional value judgment.  I have already explained this earlier in that post.  So, I am still not clear on what the problem here is.
