  1.  @runtoth3abyss  Are you serious? Have you ever heard of the Russian Collusion election fiasco? The Democrats spent years calling Trump an illegitimate president, that he colluded with the Russians to steal the election. They spent 35 million on the Mueller Report and when it turned up nothing, they had this hearing where they called Mueller in to grill him on how he conducted his investigation and STILL nothing. Yet, Adam Schiff and Hilary were still going on about collusion after all this. The Dems and the media wouldn't shut up about it. Strangely, when the Democrats were accused of election fraud, the media said that was crazy, even saying that it was the most secure election in history. It would appear that the left can make those accusations and it's all okay but when the right does it.....conspiracy nuts. By the way, did you see what happened in the elections in NY City? Eric Adams, an ex-cop, who'd be a guy that the left automatically hates, noticed a problem with the numbers in the votes and the media started calling him a Trumpian conspiracy theorist. They didn't even bother to investigate. Turned out he was correct and the media just slunk away without a word. The media doesn't do journalism anymore. They're a left wing propaganda machine and people don't have the inclination or intelligence to even question them.

  2.  MICHAEL DAMATO  I'm afraid that you're interpretation is way off from how I took it. It's about how a person allows fear to possess their minds to the point of losing control. The use of children is used as a metaphor to how adults have acted when fear has taken over their very being. The fear of witches, of Jews, of the ruling class....etc. They're no stronger or better than children, no matter how sophisticated they are and history verifies this. "Lord of the Flies" means Beelzebub, another word for Satan. It's an admonition against letting fear or its anthropomorphic character, Satan, take over your thoughts and behaviour. Fear gripped those children, in that book. The fear of the injured pilot, who went to the signal fire, and terrorised them and their horrific reactions to that fear. They were too young to use logic or reason to understand it and we see the same, all too often, in adults. "Fear is the mind killer". Like Jung said, one of the most destructive forces there is, right now.

  3.  MICHAEL DAMATO  But you can't leave Satan out of the equation. Not when you're talking about the Lord of the Flies. It would be like talking about equines and not wanting to talk about horses. Satan is another word for Beelzebub which means "Lord of the Flies". Satan is used as the human face of fear and the evil that comes when that fear is uncontrolled. Satan is an idea. He doesn't have to be real to express that idea. That's what this book is doing. It uses a metaphor to examine the idea of fear as a driver of evil. If you don't understand the idea of Satan, you'll have a tough time understanding the book, especially when you don't even want to discuss the metaphor used.

  4.  MICHAEL DAMATO  I've read a great deal in my life and I read that particular book several times. It was horrific and enlightening at the same time. I agree about the hierarchies of living creatures but I don't see that as the central theme of the book. It's a part of it, for sure, but it has to be or the pecking order condition doesn't exist. The very heart of the book is how the Lord of the Flies destroys the minds of those children through fear. Fear is the great manipulator. It's one of the ways that Satan, in religious literature, controls us. Respectfully, it makes no sense for the Lord of the Flies (Beelzebub) to be the pecking order. I suppose a Marxist might think so, though but I find they see everything through the lens of their own making.

  5.  @runtoth3abyss  You're exhibiting EXACTLY what this entire video was about. You don't discuss what Antony the Great might mean by this quote. Not a chance. Instead you sneeringly belittle and berate, in some weird and toxic attempt to sound intellectual. Attack the person by making a group association, attack that association and dismiss them all as dangerous crackpots. You do this and never say a word about what was said. This is a logical fallacy. By the way, I'm not a Christian so you can forget about dismissing me with your dehumanising tactics.

  6.  @mariaalano3077  Even opinions are called lies by the MSM. "I think mail in ballots leaves open the strong possibility for fraud". LIAR..no evidence. It's an opinion, not stated as fact, but that doesn't matter to them.
