This kid doesn't know it, but he's on the road to becoming a recovering liberal

Found this little gem (below) on Tumblr. It reminded me of a conversation I had years ago with a good friend of a family member. Despite being from New York and living in Hollywood he considered himself a moderate. He felt this way mostly because he perceived the liberals he knew and worked with in LA to be narcissistic, selfish, and totally nonintellectual.

He was impressed that conservatives could answer his questions on what liberals thought about various issues (he tested me on this point before saying so, I don't remember the question, but I passed), and noted his liberal friends couldn't even begin to do the same about our side.

It says a lot when someone who fully immersed in the liberal bubble knows it and rejects it. Especially in Hollywood.

"If there is one negative aspect about liberals,..."

If? LOL! That line high intensity spotlights liberals' self-image of perfection and faultlessness. LOL!

Actually, it was a verbose sentence that when boiled down simply says, “If there is one negative aspect about liberals, it’s everything.”

Because, if everything offends you, then everything you are associated with is negative.

Liberals never answer questions, they just go off in another direction hoping you do not have a follow up question such as “why didn’t you answer my question?”

"offended"

My take has been for decades that the motto of NOW was "We Are Offended," because every time there was story concerning NOW, they were always offended by something. Basically, they couldn't stand the idea that males were sexually attracted to females. I guess maybe because many of them were lesbians, and they wanted all the comely females for themselves. But they all came off as bitter, nasty, spiteful people. And quite a few sounded mentally unbalanced.

That’s why the left loves Mohammadans. They’re exactly alike with their sensitivity and tolerance.
