Will Smith Putin Trump

 


Are powerful men immune to punishment these days?  No.  They are probably more vulnerable than ever.  Hence the rage and despair.

Welcome to TakeSlap, a defeat and glory based inspired on Will Smith's infamous assault on Chris Brown.

By the way, was this slapping incident staged?  Was this all a publicity stunt?  

The questions above about a potential publicity stunt are being floated around.  What do you think?  Some say that Chris knew the slap was coming and embraced for impact.  Some say that Will's shouting "Keep my wife out of your f### mouth" was just to make the stunt credible.  After all, they are Hollywood actors capable of putting a realistic performance together on stage and in camera.

The more information that we have, the less we seem to know.  Should we call that the paradox of information?  Is that what is so confusing about surviving the information age?

Take Putin's Russia, for example. Information is controlled by the government to control the minds of the populace.  Take Trump Republicans as another example.  No matter how much "truth" comes out, alternative facts trump around.

What liberal thinkers fail to realize is that the masses do not want the truth.  The masses want pleasure.  People want to feel good. We all wired to avoid pain and seek pleasure.  That is how our ancestors survived.  The seek pleasure / avoid pain "trait" survived in us.  We inherited it and need to live with it.  

When the truth becomes painful for the untrained mind, alternative facts become attractive and kind.  Politicians are masters at the art of inflicting pain and promising pleasure.  On one side of the political spectrum, for example, they may inflict pain by portraying a world where white man privilege is eroding.  They can sell returning to racism as the pleasant solution.  On the other side of the spectrum, they can inflict pain by portraying a reality where "minorities" are mistreated and where the rich enjoy an unfair advantage.  

What do you think?  How are politicians pushing your buttons these days?  Do you see any correlation between Will Smith, Putin, and Trump?  Let us know.  We'd love to hear from you.

Christian Abortions

Christian women should vote for Democrats to protect the sacred right to medically sound and compassionately humane abortions in the United States. Guaranteeing access to proper abortions under adequate medical care is not only a human right, but also a Christian obligation. Christian entrepreneurs should also tap into the untouched business opportunity of promoting Christian abortions.  Slap is food for thought. Take more at  TakeSlap.com   Christian faith stands for the belief in a heavenly father who loves his children on Earth. When that heavenly father sends one of his daughters a gift of life, daughters should feel loved and empowered to safely, kindly, and humanely return the gift to the father if desired. The heavenly father is not a monster or or sadistic deity.  The heavenly father will understand and appreciate the safe return of the unborn soul to heaven. The heavenly father will not want his daughter to suffer and will not want the soul to be in the wron...

Pardon seekers will be pardoned

Economic inflation and political deflection are at record highs. The Nation learned today that some Republican / conservative members of Congress proactively sought presidential pardons for their involvement in federal crimes trying to keep Trump in power after the losing the 2020 presidential elections. These politicians will not accept any guilt whatsoever, and will not be abandoned by their core supporters. These pardon seekers will allege that they sought pardons knowing that the evil Democrats would "fabricate" charges against them. Their MAGA supporters will not believe them, of course, but will support them anyways. Many liberals can't understand conservatives, and vice versa. For example, many liberals or progressives have a hard time understanding how conservatives can say that they would vote for Trump even after knowing what Trump did after losing the 2020 presidential elections; or how they can support these pardon seekers. Conservatives, on the other hand, ha...
