It’s Sunday, September 13th and it’s craw time.
I’m tired of the Absolutist Nincompoops and they are in my craw. Because, man, have they been coming out of the woodwork lately.
The Absolutist Nincompoop divides the world into extremes of pure evil or pure good. And the Absolutist Nincompoop does it about everything. Whether it is “you’re stupid if you like that restaurant,” “you’re evil if you’re a member of this political party,” or “you’re dumb if you adhere to ‘x’ religion,” the Absolutist Nincompoop knows one thing and one thing only. He is right and you are wrong and there is no in-between. There is no difference of opinion because that which is contradictory to their viewpoint is not perceived as a “difference of opinion,” but as malice manifested.
I think the reason the Absolutist Nincompoops are in my craw is just because they are so loud, and I suppose that will always be the case. It’s just not “sexy” to write/say “well on one hand this, but on the other hand that.” But we need a lot more of that thinking and a lot less of the Absolutist Nincompoop thinking.
