No wonder the USA is a very, very badly divided country.
Certain Democrats supported the Kluxers, but they surely were not liberal Democrats.
“Like”
Amd one rule to rule them all:
Liberals feel good about themselves when they have made someone else miserable.
Just 2 things....Evil and/or STUPID.
13) To credit Rush Limbaugh, Liberalism requires no effort and no courage. Yet, liberals “feel” they are courageous.
Liberals should be compelled to watch videos of themselves being liberals.
No. 10 is key. Questioning the conservative’s motives and not his arguments. This leads to ... Conservative says “I question the validity of Affirmative Action Programs” Liberal says, “You’re a racist!” Conservative says “I question the validity, morality and practicality of Gay Marriage.” Liberal says, “You’re a homophobe!” and so on. The beauty of this for the Liberal is, with the name calling, the Liberal has moved the discussion away from whether the liberal program is good, effective and accomplishing anything. Instead there is a back and forth about whether the Conservative is racist or not and the liberal avoids any discussion of the ineffective liberal program.
A surprisingly good list.
First, the notion that they are smarter etc than others, including people past present and future, is laughable. It is child's play to show how dumb, I man outright stupid (sorry, gotta call 'em as I see 'em) many, if not most, of their decisions and beliefs are. This is, as is also noted in the list, because they let emotion do rule themselves at the expense of common sense
The second part - that they believe their assumed intellectual edge over others entitled them to control others for their own good - is an extremely dangerous (and obviously wrong) thought. That thinking is diametrically opposed to freedom and liberty. It leads to fascism and dictatorial like behaviors that have led to most of the suffering and deaths in conflicts for the past several hundred years. "You should listen to me because I know better" leads to "I will make you listen to me for your own good. " Which would still be wrong even if they were right, but is made even worse by the fact that they are almost always wrong.
A very nicely constructed nutshell. Thanks for posting.
4) “The past is always inferior to the present”
In other words: Nothing significant happened until they showed up.
I once had a frustrated liberal scream at me “My beliefs are more important to me than the truth!”
Truer words were never spoken. Liberalism is immaturity, cloaked with the pretense of moral and intellectual superiority.
My goodness: #1 really defines it. I live in a very liberal district and this explanation hit home.
Liberals do not ever not use straw man arguments. That drives me nuts.
#4 actually is about cowardice. The pirate instinct on the upper deck needs decoration and satisfaction, hence the foundation and hull must be gutted. Liberals cannot see that happiness is a byproduct of life, and not the reverse. They will never know higher values and enjoyments. They indeed live in Plato’s cave, because they believe its where they are smarter than others, thus it must be imposed.
Very good list. You just described my mother.
