They could even say they are somewhat inspired by Gandhi.whatwedontknowhttp://alturl.com/b5brtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5204863782883637837.post-71255937860680312332016-06-20T11:35:33.880-04:002016-06-20T11:35:33.880-04:00I think that's a misunderstanding of his post....I think that's a misunderstanding of his post. Of course it's wrong, but idiots are going to idiot so who cares. The alt-right, however, isn't necessarily idiotic, and shouldn't be pandering to idiots, and this is what Land has a problem with. Given his social position, I find that distaste fully justified.<br /><br />On the other hand, the reason I don't have a social position like his isn't because I can't.

I say worrying what voters think is a waste of time. If the putative sympathizer can't tell this isn't legit without being told, they're a lost cause. Everyone encouraging or applauding this nonsense is also a lost cause, though.<br /><br />I like to remind everyone that grief over her death is 99.9% fake. I would be indifferent to her life - I've lost nothing, and similarly I would have lost nothing extra if she had lived. Pragmatically it's a non-event except to her nearest kin, who I also don't know or care about.
