Today I got rather bored. So, I decided to try and register on a Liberal site just for fun to debate some of these loonies, and what I found was extremley shocking. When I finally got registered onto liberalforum.org I found myself having anything but fun. As a matter of fact, I am saddened that their are types of people like these out their. What I found were people who were anything but proud of America. As a matter of fact, most of them said that they would rather have a communist country, or socialist country, than a democracy in America.
Upon the entry of liberalforum.org (after I was logged in), I found the following notice:
Conservatives, Libertarians, and everyone uncomfortable with the label "Liberal" for themselves are requested to email info@liberalforum.org with their username so we can change their member status from 'member' to 'non-Liberal.'
If you see a non-Liberal poster who is posting in the Liberals Only Area or who is posting in the appropriate Debate section yet their Group descriptor is still "member" - please email info@liberalforum.org with their username so I can change their member status.
Members of the Liberal Forum have posting rights in the Liberals Only Area, whereas non-Liberals are locked out. Members also may receive a Liberal Forum newsletter or announcements from time to time that non-Liberals will not receive.
"Conservatives, Libertarians, and everyone uncomfortable with the label "Liberal" for themselves are requested to email info@liberalforum.org with their username so we can change their member status from "member" to "non-Liberal."

So their is your proof first of all, that liberals are unwilling to accept any points of view but their own. But, thats not even the worst of it. As I said before I found extreme anti-americanism shown by many of the members. Here are some of the quotes I found:
"Could you please explain what you mean by "democracy?" See, when most people say that, they really mean 'a capitalist system.' I would favor a Lenin-esque ideal in which the membership of a hierarchy of government positions are elected by the people. I think this would be more democratic. Communism is not a failure. The Soviet Union did not fall because it was communist, but because of the reintroduction of commercial interests by Gorbachev. It is, and always has been, private interests that lead/led to failure."
"However, I think it should be right that a communist party should be legalised in all countries and enter the democratic process, but only if the communists will allow democracy to take course if they win power."
"Communism ROCKS!"
Their were many screen names on their pertaining to the support of socialism and communism almost everywhere I looked, and I found all this the first 3 minutes I was on this website!
For some of you, this sort of CRAP may not be such a surprise, but it is certainley shocking. It is very shocking to me also that these people would dare accept their name as "liberals", expecially since most of their views represent anything but liberty.
Some do actually...
I disagree. That forum is not as bad as you made it out to be.

Funny.

Not likely.
