You should have seen the crap I got around here when I criticized W Bush for not fighting back against the Democrats’ slander of our military.
It happened again when I refused to agree with the common knowledge around here that Sarah Palin, a veritable neophyte, was the equal of Ronald Reagan, who had a lifetime of amazing achievements under his belt.
I’m sure that was fun…
I’ve been blasted for not getting behind Boebert and MTG.
One is just loud and crazy, and the other is just nice tits.
Oh well…
It’s better to say what you really think than be an echo chamber coward.
I think that's it in a nutshell.
That about sums it up!
Told hubby the other day that I would gladly give up the right to vote to keep liberal women as far away from any decision making as possible.
It's a much more difficult thing for conservatives to pull off. The entire apparatus of the culture openly and loudly touts the liberal point of view. A conservative cannot escape it. Liberals can live for months and never come into actual contact with a genuine conservative position. This is why they are so shocked when they encounter one, and why they are so ill-prepared for the encounter.
Bottom line, confirmation bias is not even on the same scale for conservatives than it is for liberals. To claim otherwise is to ignore reality.
Exactly. I would caution against using wikipedia for anything but the most cursory and basic information about something. If it has any political implications at all, it's not useful as a source. However, if you are interested in specific information about optics, or the precise melting point of a certain alloy, it can be very useful. Once you understand its limitations, you can use it profitably.
Yes, I agree. Anything political is compromised by their bias.
W never fought back against anything. Both Mommy and Karl Rove told him he would mar the ‘historic legacy” of Poppy. True story.
How Liberals Respond When You Try to Debate Them
Answer: Stomp their feet and call you racist, a nazi.
If you could reason with a liberal there would be no liberals.
If you could reason with a democrat, there would be no democrats.
One of the hardest thing to do in life is trying to reason with a liberal.
To anger a conservative, lie to them.
To anger a liberal, tell them the truth.
Or they get violent.
“ I had to let a few family members go - this during the Clinton perjury thing.”
And that’s when my in-laws stopped talking to my father. At a dinner one night, he quoted Carville saying “It’s the economy stupid.” They thought my father was talking about them and they got all bent out of shape. My wife, being in network news tried to explain it, but my in-laws weren’t having anything to do with it.
