I am speaking about inciting violence, baiting people, and engaging in voter fraud.
Your views imply that there is no difference between liberals and conservatives which I disagree with.
My experiences, those I have spent on the line in Washington DC in person opposing liberals, Code Pink, MoveOn, etc, is that they are both immoral and amoral, whereas conservatives I encounter in all cases are different.
You must have personal experience that drives your opinion, but I go on the hundreds of people I have met from disparate walks of life, and stood across from liberals from their different walks of life, and there is a significant and fundamental difference in behavior and comportment.
I respect your opinion, but I simply don’t feel the same way.
They probably weren’t doctored but the perception is they were. That’s what networks hang on too.
You think we don’t do that? Really?
People are people. Conservative or liberal they’re still human beings. Which means they’re fallible, corruptible, and able to rationalize wrong actions because they think the reasons are right.
I have open eyes that let me see reality. No group has a monopoly on morality, or immorality. It’s not about how you feel, it’s about looking at the world around you.
Well, I did not say they weren’t human beings. The fundamental difference between them and us is that we believe we are fallible, and they believe they can achieve utopia, perfection. And they also believe any means justifies the ends.
Anyway, no use to make an issue about this, in my mind. You and I will disagree on this, and we’ve got bigger fish to fry.
Good luck.
Yeah, I know. Damnit. Having the MSM investigate and publicize this is like...oh yeah...the FBI investigating Hillary Clinton’s email violations!
I agree completely. The first website I went to while looking to see who was carrying the story and who wasn’t (I think it might have been CNN) had the very first words of the article “Discredited conservative investigative journalist...”
They frontloaded that with as much negativity as they could:
Discredited
Conservative
Investigative Journalist (I think most people dislike “investigative journalists” at a visceral level, but that is just my opinion)
Denying the personhood of your opponents is innately immoral behavior. See, we are just like them.
Where did I deny the personhood of my opponents? I said they and the foundations of their ideology are immoral.
If you want to discuss it, lets discuss it. If you are going to put words in my mouth, I have better things to do than waste my time.
Sorry I misread that sentence. But in the end we are still just like them. They are fallible, we are fallible, they do immoral things to back their cause, we do immoral things to back our cause. That’s what people do.
I don’t agree with drawing a moral equivalency overall, that’s all.
I know every liberal isn’t a devil, and every conservative isn’t an angel. I don’t think we disagree there, I suspect we disagree where to draw the dividing line for those two populations.
I just don’t think they are equal.
Thanks for the courteous response.
