(VANITY) Your Liberal (and Conservative) friends DO know Trump is telling the truth ... Don't they?
10/23/16 | A sudden revelation

Posted on 10/23/2016 7:32:14 PM PDT by JennysCool

Excuse the vanity, but I had a sudden revelation Friday that I thought I'd share. A liberal co-worker was going on about Trump's "(expletive deleted) lies" during the debate. I asked him to name one. He said, "That (expletive deleted) about gays being thrown off buildings in the Middle East for one. He just makes (expletive deleted) up!" He laughed and shook his head in the familiar attitude of the self-righteous lib.

"Dude," I said. "That's true. They do that."

"(Expletive deleted)!"

"Look it up."

To his credit, he did some Googling. When I saw him later, he said,"I (expletive deleted) looked that up. That's (expletive deleted) twisted! I can't believe they (expletive deleted) do that (expletive deleted)!"

Which gave me a sudden realization -- nothing major to any of us around here but kind of startling nonetheless. People like my low-information co-worker are so low-information they are convinced Trump is lying or making things up when he is just stating the absolute truth that the mainstream media isn't giving them. I liked thinking that Trump's expressed truth about Hillary and crazy liberal nonsense was educating the low-info dullards, now I wonder just how many of them are so far gone, and don't bother to do the Googling my co-worker did, that they honestly think he's just making stuff up out of whole cloth.

Like I say, this doesn't surprise most of us here, but it's unsettling to think we live now in a society where perhaps a majority of the people are so propagandized they not only don't, but WON'T believe the truth.

End of rant.

“If we don’t talk to libs, we can’t educate them,”

It’s a lost cause man. I mean, these clowns believe in glowbull warming. I have to take out a coloring book with crayons to explain they’re wrong.

Wow, you work in a tough shop;)
I wrote to Fox 61 (the local CT Fox channel) tonight to ask them to be fair and balanced. Every evening I turn it on to hear the news and they precede to talk about the Trump stuff, that we all hear in the news, but nothing about Hillary.
We all must fight back.
Thank you for doing so, jenny

Fantastic!

You managed to kill (at least) two myths at once.

Myth #1: Obamacare is good for us.
Myth #2: Conservatives are haters who hate foreigners in particular.

Way to go, Ex-hippie!

Naive liberals I know cling to a sound bite such as, “Trump stiffed his vendors,” or “Trump scares me.” The real reason for their loyalty is some deep seeded jealousy/resentment or they are government workers.

You’ll get to live on an island, but don’t be surprised when the supplies are half-pilfered before they can ever get to you.

The left does NOT know the lies that Clinton et al is telling. Facebook is a tool to get the word out using wikileaks specific emails to refute the lies. Key emails are: the ones showing collusion with just about every major media, the one about Clinton taking $50 million from Saudis, knowing they financially support ISIS, the ones talking about the compliant public for just a few.

I think that the Left DOES know ALL about ALL the lies Clinton et al are telling. My opinion, of course.

As for taking $50 million from Saudis, I don't believe that either. The royal family wouldn't deal with Shrillary, overbearing female twit that she is.
The Saudi king is too busy making $1 billion EVERY TWO DAYS from his petroleum and natural gas revenues. Those are 1985 figures too.

Also, the King gives away PILES of money, even to Christian countries. He has to as it's part of the "five pillars of Islam."

There is NO REASON WHATSOEVER for any Saudi, royal or not, to bother with the U.S. presidency. Saudi ARAMCO ARAMCO = Arabian-American Oil Company, founded in the 1920's by AMERICAN oil companies, is the big shot over there as they own ALL the petroleum and natural gas in the Kingdom and Gulf. According to their geologists the Saudis have another 200 years of their crude and gas.

The Saudis exile their home-grown aholes. Osama bin Ladin was a scion of an extremely wealthy and powerful Saudi family and they DUMPED him. He was forced to flee his homeland. The Afghanis took him in and he was killed for his efforts, as he should have been.

BTW side-note from Google: The Guardian notes : "The Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (Isis) is so hardline that it was disavowed by al-Qaida's leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri." In April 2010, present ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi became the new head of the group.Mar 23, 2016

.

By the way the word "collusion" is PERFECT.
WELL put.

Your attitude is a self fulfilling prophecy.

In the debate I remember Hillary said that a nine month abortion does not cut up and kill a baby. What the heck did people think it is then?

I got into a huge argument with an old friend who I had not seen for 30 years, who looked me up, and somehow we found ourselves talking about Planned Parenthood. This after 90 or so days talking by phone and me going to visit him in Hawaii.

As it turns out we were hippies when we knew each other, apolitical. But his folks were actually card carrying members of CPUSA, as I found out during the period of time we chatted about this and that and what had happened in the intervening 30 years. I didn’t find that anything other than interesting, I have no need to convert anyone to anything.

When I told him that very very few people know the eugenics history of PP and that he should look it up. I said I found it odd that, if I started a local chapter of the Nazi party or the Ku Kux Klan and I called them the XYZ Nazi party or the XYZ local klaven, nobody would have the slightest doubt as to what I stood for. But not so for PP.

He just went completely insane on me, insisted we had nothing in common, and broke off the re-friendship on the spot.

I’d be happy to send you a supply of crayons.

Seriously, some can’t be educated. But I prefer not to give up on all of them.

The reason that some can’t be educated is because they operate totally on emotion. “You can’t reason a person out of something he was never reasoned into.”

When you run into someone like that who operates solely on emotion, you have to convert them with emotion. No amount of factual evidence will sway them. People like this can be easy to persuade if you find the right triggers. That’s the hard part. You have to figure out what emotion is driving them and appeal to that. Do they like Hitlery because all the cool kids like her? Are they in an arrested state of development and are liberal because it’s a thumb in the eye to “the establishment” (i.e., their parents) and they are still in the rebellious teenage stage? Are they voting for Hitlery because she is a woman and they think it shows support for women?

There are so many bad emotional reasons why people vote liberal/Hitlery and you’ve got to figure out what they are and fight on their terms. You can’t win by expecting libs to play your game (facts and reason). They won’t. Perhaps they can’t. You have to beat them at their own game.

What irritates me the most is that these people are so uninformed they think Trump is a conspiracy nut when he says things that are completely true. It’s got to be INCREDIBLY frustrating for his campaign.

I get quite a lot of positive feedback in freepmail. How much do you get on your filthification?

And even your own approach is self defeating.

It is not the OPEN liberals that will give you the biggest problems as a conservative. You know what they are going to want. It’s the HIDDEN liberals, the ones who play the most evil games with you. You bragged even about blowing away OPEN liberals. That was foolish; you performed a self blinding move.

You are living in your own little blind hell hole (and I am not).

Really? Now who would want to give you positive feedback on PM, liar? This ain’t Facebook clown. You’re still a retard preaching Christianity yet you judge other people instead of being the official stalker fag of FR.
