There is this saying that is misinterpreted.

blood runs thicker than water

People saying this mean to say that family bonds are more important than friendships.

But it's incomplete. The full expression:

blood runs thicker than water from the womb

Meaning blood bonds, friendships, are stronger than family connections, the water from the womb.

I have a brother who votes for a conspiracy right wing party. My mother keeps spreading racist slurs and follows right wing populists and media. My father is more like me, but is afraid to get into conflict so he always takes my mother's side.

I told them, after countless chances, I'm done with them. I broke off all contact, with a long explanation without convictions, attacks, blaming or what so ever. Just explaining I feel hurt by how I feel treated and I feel helpless as any form of conversation ends in full scale attacks onto me, blaming me for everything, calling me a child in its puberty (I'm 39) who never takes responsibility (while I always take full responsibility for my actions, while they have never done so).

I'm happy with my group of honest and deep friendships. I don't need my family. They wrote me out of their will. I don't care. I don't need anything from them anymore. I'm surrounded by amazing and loving people, while they are going to die sad and alone.

As not one of "the golden children" sometimes it's best to just focus on your (or you own families) happiness.

Yes, and that's a good thing for you. But is it a good thing for the dog? I've known dogs with very abusive human companions.

This is why I don't understand why unconditional love is put up on a pedestal. The person that you love unconditionally could fall, hit their head, and become a completely different person who now treats you horribly. Should you still show them that same love?

For years my wife and I have talked about who would outlive the other and we both constantly say the other will (it's pretty damn sad to think about going on without each other). Very recently I changed my thought process and would prefer to live longer, if only to spare her the pain of going through that feeling of loss.

Too much work, dying is one and done. Easy, really.

Something something no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country, he won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country. Dying literally is doing nothing.

Especially in an age of spectacle and shallowness.

Violence is fetishised in the US

Too many losers think action movies are documentaries

In such a scenario, the will of the victim is paramount. As much as my rage that my wife had been harmed would motivate me to go full Punisher, her desire to not lose my to a prison cell or the grave would make her tell me to allow the justice system to work. I would follow her wishes but anything I could do that wouldn't taint the evidence needed to convict I would do.

Taking a job at an evil company for your children is not remarkable. It's Tuesday.

Yes that's basically what I said. The society is based on sociopathic and psychopathic thinking.

I expect that people dont understand. I just try to express what feels true to me using words that makes sense to me. Feel free to ask what I mean with my words if you are curious. There's no shame.

Walldom is a relighting of territory. Its a relighting that emphasize how might sets up arbitrary walls or borders which they claim authority over.

Beatling is a euphamism for heart in that it is something that beats. The heart is a symbol of the center of something, in this case the heart of the walldom. So beatling is the heart of the walldom.

Well, in all fairness that one specifically isn't really a principle and more of a slot were you fit one or more principles, for example the principles behind Human Rights and Justice.

But yeah, people for whom other people have no inherent rights and whose view in general of what is Just (and hence of Justice) reflects that, will have abhorrent ideas about what is acceptable to do to uninvited guests, so it is entirelly logical for somebody who thinks somebody entering their house uninvited should be shot to also think extreme force should be used against illegal immigrants.

However, my point is that even such people might be made to have a different views towards Legal Immigrants and Refugees if the take on the whole subject of Immigration also includes the Duty Of Help and the Duty Of A Host Towards Invited Guests.

As it stands now, such people are simply against "Immigrants" as one big blob.
