That *almost* makes sense.Just because I know how inferior you feel, and do not know you feel, does not make me any different than you or any better.
I think nothing of the sort, I'm in love with myself and you are simply wrong.You can't comprehend that being told you hate yourself is anything but a put down.
How many times do I have to tell you that what you feel is a lie, that you were created in the image or God or created Him in your image, if you prefer.
Corn: yet feel the same way about a liar and swindler and you are no better than the liar and swindler.
M: You see, you think in terms of better and worse because you are judgmental and you are judgmental because you have contempt.
You are no better than the liar and the swindler because when you judge you condemn yourself.
M: No, Corn, not every time. I have posted the facts on bigotry many many times
Nobody is deserving of shame or punishment because people are what they are without it being their fault.
A liar is duplicitous and harms himself and others via his lies, but he can't bear to feel the truth. A swindler violates the rights of others and requires separation so that he can't harm others. No swindler will be cured by punishment. Only when a swindler sees that he swindles because he feels small and incapable of living productively on his own steam, and finds that feeling to be a lie, will he not be a potential swindler.
M: You want to win something, Corn, and are is some sort of tussle but I'm not playing your game.
You are a fool because you are caught trying to make me suffer humiliation that I already do and have. I am a worthless piece of shit, OK, now look at yourself. I think you need the mirror more than me.

I find this to be a preposterous over-simplification. There are plenty of people on the right who could intellectually bury you. Your inferiority manifests an intellectual arrogance and pride. Not saying you are stupid, only blind. There are also plenty of people on the right with minds more open than yours. Another part of your need to self flatter. Rational thought is everybody's enemy it would seem, because you are no more rational yourself as evidenced here by your exclusivity. There is truth in what you say but you don't include yourself or acknowledge exceptions, I think, because you are projecting and have a need.
s: I see a man filled with bigotry for gays. Does that mean I see myself as a bigot?
M: You can tell a bigot you just can't tell him much. It does not make you a bigot unless you despise his bigotry, if you have some hidden emotional need to change him.

not a snowball's chance in hell
:laugh:
You feel it too fool or you wouldn't need to laugh; you lack the introspection to see you are on a hook, that you laugh because you are vicious with pride. You feel laughable so you laugh at me hoping I will feel the same humiliation you do. Good luck.

Now wait just a second there: Let's agree that psychological projection is an (unconscious) strategy whereby a person makes him- or herself feel better by seeing in others ("projecting") his or her own unacceptable characteristics, regardless of whether or not that perception is accurate.
In other words: A man dislikes his selfishness. He temporarily negates or reduces that unpleasant feeling by perceiving real or imagined selfishness in others.
Fine. But where do you get from that that a person CANNOT see unacceptable characteristics in others that the person does not already see in themselves?

Enough with the over-simplifications.
Take what you said earlier if you want to deal with over-simplifications:
"The right hurls vitriol at Obama because they know they can't win on intellectual grounds. Only by stirring up emotions can they keep minds closed. Hatred and fear displace rational thought, and rational thought is the enemy of the Right."
I find this to be a preposterous over-simplification. There are plenty of people on the right who could intellectually bury you. Your inferiority manifests an intellectual arrogance and pride.

Rational thought is everybody's enemy it would seem, because you are no more rational yourself as evidenced here by your exclusivity. There is truth in what you say but you don't include yourself or acknowledge exceptions, I think, because you are projecting and have a need.
As to the points in your last post you have missed the key component that makes projection projection, that projection is not about thoughts but emotions:
s: I see a man filled with bigotry for gays. Does that mean I see myself as a bigot?
M: You can tell a bigot you just can't tell him much. It does not make you a bigot unless you despise his bigotry, if you have some hidden emotional need to change him.
s: I recognize a woman as a liar and swindler. Does that mean I see myself as a liar and swindler?
M: Not unless you feel some need that she should be punished or feel shame.
s: I see a man abusing his dog. Does that mean I see myself as an abuser of animals?
M: No, but if you feel yourself to be that dog and want to bite the abuser, then you are projecting.
s: I see a man driving recklessly. Does that mean I see myself as a reckless driver?
M: If you see him as a doddering idiot because he is going slower than you are, or a madman because he's driving faster, then yes, your own self contempt is involved.
s: I see a woman cheating on her husband. Does that mean I see myself as a cheater?
M: It's all about what you feel.
s: I see you misusing psychological concepts. Does that mean I see myself as misunderstand psychology?
M: You may not see it but you are.
s: Is the most enlightened Sufi master unable to see human failings? Was God or Jesus or any other sentient being you believe to be perfect unable to see human failings?
M: They are truly free from feeling anything other than love. They are undivided from what they see. They do not project......they are mirroring God.
The difficulty with projecting is that we do not know when we do it because we do not know what we feel and the more intellectual we are and the less intuitive and feeling, the truer this is.

Yes, yes, there are any number of ways to look at it in simple terms. What I am interested in is the deeper realities that make these true. What is the insanity of death throws all about?
The right has demonized the left, turned liberal in to dangerous menace and now the demons are in control. What is the fear of the devil? I look at myself to understand. Those monsters out there at the ends of the sea are the monsters I project, the me I hate and can't admit to being.
I create all these monsters because I can't feel my own self hate and I know this to be true because I have had real experience breaking in there, feeling what I feel. And what a surprise.
Just because I know how inferior you feel, and do not know you feel, does not make me any different than you or any better.

When you see what is, without projecting, without negative feelings biasing your view you are likely seeing without bias or projection.

I can't be sure exactly what causes the "insanity" but I'm guessing the percieved and very real loss of power/control? How deep does that rabbit hole go? Deep enough that it will corrupt the left as they take over that power/controlThe right has demonized the left, turned liberal in to dangerous menace and now the demons are in control. What is the fear of the devil? I look at myself to understand. Those monsters out there at the ends of the sea are the monsters I project, the me I hate and can't admit to being.
Actually I've been around long enough that I saw the left become corrupted enough that they made it easy for the right to demonize them and wrest control away from them. Now it is the left demonizing the right, but only people who don't hate themselves can see that truth, right?.I create all these monsters because I can't feel my own self hate and I know this to be true because I have had real experience breaking in there, feeling what I feel. And what a surprise.
I think it is fear that creates monsters and hate is what keeps them alive.
As Lucy from Charlie Brown would say, $5 please.

Finally. Thanks for admitting that you CAN perceive negatives in others that you don't perceive in yourself.
I accept your retraction.

9-27-09Bill Clinton speaks of vast, right-wing conspiracy
WASHINGTON ? Bill Clinton says a vast, right-wing conspiracy that once targeted him is now focusing on President Barack Obama.
The ex-president made the comment in a television interview when he was asked about one of the signature moments of the Monica Lewinsky affair over a decade ago. Back then, first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton used the term "vast, right-wing conspiracy" to describe how her husband's political enemies were out to destroy his presidency.
Bill Clinton was asked on NBC's "Meet the Press" whether the conspiracy is still there. He replied: "You bet. Sure it is. It's not as strong as it was because America has changed demographically. But it's as virulent as it was."
Clinton said that this time around, the focus is on Obama and "their agenda seems to be wanting him to fail."
