And incidentally, you mention telling someone to go jump in the lake or some such. In the latter days of old Twitter, I was banned briefly for using that phrase on the unfathomably absurd grounds that I was “encouraging someone to commit suicide.” Presumably GFY would have been perfectly fine.
In any case, I note this because the aforementioned Mike Cosper and friends went into overdrive to demonize me for this, as though they actually genuinely believed what they were saying.
Part of the reason many of us don’t listen to these “betters” is that the truth is not in them. They are lying frauds, manipulating the faithful by weaponizing our beliefs against us.
Very well said.
