Right And Wrong

Part of the problem with objective standards of right and wrong, with ethics, is that they're oppressive, they apparently stand in the way of personal freedom. "You can't do this!" thunders the beastly Truth, "Or you'll destroy..." fill in the blank. 

So boom, out goes Truth. At last I'm free to be what I wanna be. But in the absence of truth, of an ethical standard outside of yourself, what fills the vacuum?

At least two things, principally Force and Lies. You don't agree with me? I'll make you do it because I've got  bully power behind me. And failing that, I'll just lie. Remember, there's no objective standard here, it's just you and what you happen to think or want. So go out and get it, there's no "rule."

We've seen this play out time and again over the last 100 or so years, and it's a philosophy that's resulted in mountains of bones; in the massacred millions of thought criminals who dared stand against the dead-handed scourge of the Left. Or didn't, who simply got in the way, like Cambodians who happened to own books. 

To return to the question, what fills the vacuum? Self or pride, and we know the angelic author of this vice. He was a murderer from the beginning, and he rages because he knows his time is near. 

In the meanwhile, we're faced with #BubbaSmollett. Not content with racism, Bubba had to make some up, to lie so he could force his point. Now Bubba's exposed as a mountebank race war goon. Zir's non-hierarchical, millionaire rainbow rulers also.

The truth will out,

Roof Top Koreans

During the 1992 LA riots, busloads of Oppressed Minority launched mindless human wave looting attacks on the neighborhoods they lived in. 

Typical Koreans On A Roof In LA

They targeted successful stores owned by Koreans because they wanted to steal the Koreans' stuff. All that free plunder waitin' for the takin'.

But the Koreans didn't want to give all their stuff to the Oppressed Minority attacking them in busloads, and called the cops. The cops didn't come or ran away. They were scared of the Oppressed Minority.

Not the Koreans, who got on their roofs and shot the Oppressed Minority until the Oppressed Minority got the message and ran away. The Oppressed Minority doesn't mess with Koreans anymore in case they go "roof."

Happy Days On The Roof

There's not only a movie but a moral to this edifying tale.
