Depressed people are expendable.

OK, as someone of mixed Scots and Deutscher descent, I gotta say: Looking to Great-British Calvinism as a basis for racial purity, that as a basis for a core morality, is ridiculous:

a) John Calvin was a Frenchman, your argument is invalid. If you base your chauvinism on the teachings of someone outside the race, you undercut your chauvinism with itself.
b) Calvinism, while a distinct religion in its own right, always grafted itself onto Christianity, which is part of a Jewish humanistic tradition, & considers social compassion to be its moral core. Read that again.
c) Even the Nazis embraced a limited range of socioethnic diversity. Is a Thuringian really the same as a Swabian or a Hamburger? “Purity” is either too narrowly defined to gain power or simply drawing an arbitrary line around some groups of people and through others.

I have learned from bitter personal experience never to discuss the subject of depression with someone suffering from depression.

OK folks, I’ve had enough now. Can we close this thread?

When I get depressed, often the only thing that lifts the malaise is to say crazy, hurtful, trolling garbage that I desperately do not believe in, and to keep arguing an untenable position until I am rolling around in my own bullshit and thoroughly befouled.

I’m climbing out of it now. Thank you all.

I hope you feel better.

Next time, take it to a professional therapist. Saying “crazy, hurtful, trolling garbage” on this message board will get you warned, and then banned, if it doesn’t stop.

Closing thread.
