Somebody on my chess forum has told me I ought to throttle back on the name-calling.

For some reason it made me think of a bit in a 1953 sci-fi classic, It Came from Outer Space. Things have been getting very gnarly, and the sheriff is just about ready to erupt. And he says, “Did you know… more people are murdered at 92 degrees Fahrenheit than any other temperature. I read an article once–lower temperatures, people are easy-going. Over 92, it’s too hot to move. But just 92, people get irritable!”

Well, what can I say? I get irritable. Especially when it’s day after day with white liberal useful idiots squawking about how much they hate white people and how bad all white people are, yatta-yatta. It’s my job to check the news each day, but there’s only so much of this Woke Democrat horse-schiff I can take.

I think it’s important and valuable to mock the Far Left self-anointed oracles who presume to lecture us. They believe their own hype and it drives them crazy when they’re laughed at. If there’s anybody out there who’s fooled by the Left’s pretense to superior intelligence, we owe it to them to set them free from that deception.

We are not up against criminal geniuses like Prof. Moriarty or Dr. Fu Manchu, super-villains, might as well surrender, etc. True, there are a few sharp knives in that drawer; but it’s a very big drawer. For the most part, we’re up against poops and twaddlers who haven’t even a suspicion of just how stupid they are.

And, and, and! We are up against spiritual wickedness in high places. See St. Paul’s warning in Ephesians 6: 10-20. Earnest prayer is called for.

I’m not trying to say it’s a good thing for me to lose my temper when dealing with Satan’s sock puppets. But “winsome” just looks phony when I try it, and besides, it’s wasted on them.
