Foolishness

Antifascists

I was reacquainted with a very useful word today: "Foolishness".

The person was using it in the Biblical sense.

According to Proverbs, a fool is someone who:
  • Has no wisdom.  
  • Is incapable of obtaining wisdom.  
  • Who hates wisdom. 
  • Who resents who demonstrate wisdom
  • Seeks to poison those with prudence and wisdom.
The fool lives for the fleeting instant.  A fool has no discipline.  In a sense, children are, by nature, fools.  Those who enable perpetual childhood are creating a society of fools.

The wise person is tainted even when they attempt to correct a fool.  Strife is like oxygen to fools.  They court it.

To quote Remus, "Stay away from crowds."

  1. This can be read as Antifascists are foolish therefore fascists are not.

    1. That presumes "Antifascists" are the opposite of "Fascists".

      From my perspective they are same-same. It is impossible to distinguish between the two groups based on their behavior.

      If it looks like a duck, and walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck....
