I understand that part of war is rhetoric. But part of the job of the loyal opposition to blank minded lock step unithought, is to try to make inroads into the groupmind, and to try to resist groupthink. I think that is my job in the world. I like my job. :-)

(not that "loyal" or "opposition" or "job" mean I am "talking well" about myself or anything like that. Meant to be descriptive only. I place no values of "good" or "bad" upon these words, to be found in any dictionary. Please read and process them at your own risk.)

"Of course only OUR side can be brave."

And this is the pity of it. They see it the same way. WE do not have mothers and fathers, or brothers and sisters. WE do not have loyalty, allegiance, or other moral attributes. WE worship the wrong "God"; and "WE" are not real people. "WE" do not love, suffer, read books, or paint. Well...I am not surprised...neither do "they"...
