Extreme Right: Rabid, delusional racists who can't get laid because they try too hard to look like Chuck Norris in front of women.
Extreme Left: Whiny crybabies with no sense of humor.

I think I dislike extremism, I still consider myself to be on the left but would not want to support left leaning groups who advocate extremism.

Always, a Great Topic as it applies to Politics, Per the Extreme Right and Extreme left
Per Rules of Life; And Religion as the Cultural Bonds that Bind us Together in life; And Yes,
the Philosophy of what makes us Tick and Work Together; other wise known as Philosophy
where there are no holds Barred; Just Questions that Folks ask to attempt to Arise at a Greater
Consensual Reality where both the Individual and Group may have a better chance for a Right/
Left to Life and Liberty; and the Pursuit of Happiness; so, first, a Philosophical; And Yes, Religious
and Political Leaning Poem to address the current Wrong Planet Topic here of the Extreme
Right and Left that/who are basically Metaphors for Matriarchy and Patriarchy too as one
is Flowers of Love and the other is Laws of Thorn that Bring Order to other wise
potential Chaos that doesn't keep the Glue
of Society in Working Order
So Thorns and Flowers
Will exist in Balance as Rose:

RHeToRiCaL QueSTioN
FoR Me
At LEasT
JeSuS F iN CHRisT iF FLoWeRS AnD
THoRNS RoSE aLLToGETHeR aS oNe
FoR PaY i'D Be RicH
THeRE iS No TRuELiGHT RoSE LoVE
RiSeN MiSSinG FLoWeRS Or THoRNS
LoVinG BoTH ReBoRN
DoubT iT NoT
THeRe iS BoTH
MaLiGnanT Patriachy
And Matriarchy Too
What/Who Does
One Worship...
Roses are Flowers are Thorns
Roses are Flowers and Thorns
There are no Roses without
Flowers and Thorns

Okay, I realize that Poem may have sounded a Little Like Yoda from Stars as such;
and or A Gnostic Jesus Version out of A Gospel of Thomas Wrote it; or a Yogi as such,
now; so, I will attempt to address it with Science more than Art too for those not inclined
now with Art Brushes and Paint in Being One as Master Peace Paintings more; in other words,
folks who not only do the Red and Blue Pill of Life for those who also indulge now in Yellow
And More Living Pantheistic Green Pills of Life that are God as the Desert and Mountain and
Beach that/who doesn't hide in Caves or Wander on Desert Roads hearing voices and stuff like that
without a little Science
for the Reasons we
are Blessed with
as Art of Life too where
sure all that exists may be
found in a Cord of Wood Split
in two as one per the Nucleuses and Electrons
that swirl about as Atoms tHere as they do in you and me too.

The Left is the Mama and the Right is the Daddy. When you can't get
what you want from Daddy you go to Mama to ask for some more help.
When Daddy is not around, Mama may do too much for you in Nurturing way
And then one may never gain the Courage that Goes along with Wisdom to Truly
Do Love in Fearless way. If one hates the left or the right with all their heart; chances
are, they are way out of balance and live somewhat of a miserable life. So, in other words,
Life is Flowers and Thorns; get used to both; get in Balance and Rise as Rose out of Malignant
Patriarchy and Malignant Matriarchy, too. Chances are, if one does not; they will not find the Capstone
of Maslow's
Pyramid
Now more of
Self Actualization
and Transcendent
All Agape Love; I F iN
Love Flowers and Thorns
and for me at least that
is my path to rise as RoSE NoW..:)

Okay, now to the Old Disney Song that
illustrates the Experience of Heaven now one
with Nature named Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah for that old
African American Man who is Singing that Song on his
Merry Leprechaun-Like Way in his Older Years of Life as experiencing
Many Thorns of Life and Finally Self-Actualizing to the point where he
Accepts all the Thorns and Flowers as Rose of Life and Truly Does Live in an
Eternal Now of A Dance and Song that obviously Spells Heaven to those who no longer experience
Nature Deficit order Clothed away from the Naked Fearless Love that comes from a Successful Life Won.
It's True, if one's Politics and Religion and or Philosophy Doesn't Bring one a Blue Bird Dance and Song
that goes something like Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah as an Irish Leprechaun (Could be an Older African
American Gentleman from Alabama too) Skipping Along as the Fearless Joy as Love as Nature
Together on A Beautiful Spring Leaning Saint Patrick's Day as every now year long;
Basically,
it's
worthless
at least for now
in an Ocean of Thorns
and or Flowers without
the other pArts won Together, Reborn.
If one wants more Science about this; check
out Jordan Peterson; he's a little Over-Zealous about
certain aspects of this; but overall, he gets the Irish Jig;
but True; he needs a little more Irish in Smiling eyes, to keep from getting depressed.
And that's really hard to do, until one really re-tires with Flowers over Thorns that Rise More as Rose;
in other words;
Wheels Covered
That still Spin with Rubber.
Other than that; thanks for the
Cool Topic; I'm Second Generation
Irish Removed from Ireland; so i've got more
'Fili'/'Bard' stuff to do now on Saint Patrick's Day Back oN 'EartH'..;)

https://katiemiafrederick.files.wordpre ... 4960_n.jpg

And it's true; i Do sort of look like A Chuck Norris as Folks have told me that when
Young Women invite 'Pan of the Forrest Gump', For a Photo Now With me at
57 Years old; after i entertain them with a Pan Dance Hall Jig coming
Close to the Vernal Equinox of Spring Break now.
Trust me, or not; if you Love to Inspire Beautiful
Women to Smile; Dance like
No one is Looking
and Never
Look
Back for Love is Now
with Both Flowers and
Thorns for Roses Risen LoViNG NoW;
True, Free Style Ballet and Martial Arts
Together Makes Heavenly Bliss Too NoW As Dance And Song Real..;)

They both end up supporting an extremely authoritarian government.

Extreme right: Angry, brainwashed mob that thinks illogically.
Extreme left: Angry, brainwashed mob that thinks illogically.

Now this coming from a center left anarchist.

^^ This. There's not a dime's worth of difference between them.

Different sides of the same coin, neither are worth listening to imo.

What I find tiresome is how so many people these days are desperate to throw the words 'lefty' or 'righty' at absolutely anyone who holds different views to them completely missing that so many people actually hold similar middleground views on things with just slight differences here or there. They also use these words to suggest the position of left or right is an extreme position to take up and use the words in a disparaging manner.

What ever happened to normal political discussion?

I think the internet removed civility. In real life you meet people you disagree with and even if their opinions are obscene most people tend to be respectful.

Bullcrap.

Civil discourse exists all over the internet.

Additionally, you can't really discuss atheism in real life because people will bite your head off. That's why there are so many atheists on the internet.

I see what you did there. As a Brit the idea of someone reacting negatively to me being an atheist is such an alien concept.

Well, "extreme" is the keyword, here. I don't support anybody / group who / that is extreme----that's why I don't support White Supremacists or the BLM. IMO, those people have tunnel-vision: "If you're not with us, you're agin us!!", and I think that people who do that are cuttin' their nose off, to spite their face (they just might learn something from others, if they were willing to remain open, on the issue).

So, yeah, I agree with everyone else who said one extreme group, is as bad as the other (keyword, here, being "extreme").

Very much agree. I don't think many people really care about religion in the UK these days though, which I believe is different to the US. Over here if you say you are religious you would be looked at oddly (see politics - I get the feeling in the US you need to come out as religious, even fake it maybe to be in with a shot, Blair over here had to wait until he was out of politics to say he was Catholic)

My in-laws are quite religious. I have had some good chats with them about atheism Vs religion in the past tbh.

Both extreme left and right are selfish emotion junkies...
They are dedicated to their self-serving need of emotion satiation...
An extreme need of existential validation...
Value emotionalism rather than rationalism...
I.E.: Oxygen thieves... :mrgreen:
