Macho or Mean?

Submitted by ub on

Machismo is the sense of being manly and self-reliant, the concept associated with a strong feeling of exaggerated masculine pride. It is associated with a man's responsibility to provide for, protect, and defend his family. The word macho has a long history in Spanish and Portuguese languages.

A real man is not supposed to talk a lot or be afraid. Who talks all the time and is scared of everything, including stairs, sharks, rain...etc. POTUS and GOP are not the saviors of masculinity. They are a parody of it.

The Macho Man or Mucho Mean Republicans' Trump impeachment strategy is really simple and out of the Communist playbook. I lived it first hand with Fidel Castro yelling and attacking the USA.

The plan is to distract, deceive and yell GOP lawmakers have treated the hearings by delivering loud, rambling monologues in a deliberate attempt to wear down participants, the audience, or both.

Whatever happened to speak softly, which includes those possibilities that are unattached to carrying a big stick. For example, most folks listen much closer and more carefully when we speak softly than when one speaks with aggressive loudness. Yelling and loud voices force folks to withdraw and close off.
