I have a couple of friends who are liberals -- not those liberals who have reached what I call “the incurable terminal stage.” Nor are they the psychotics who, the moment they are exposed to facts or viewpoints different from theirs become wild-eyed and hysterical. Even so, on certain topics their ability to reason seems to break down.
A couple of months back, the issue of illegal aliens came up. They voiced the usual talking points on the topic: the aliens are just trying to build a better life, they pay taxes, only a few commit crimes, etc. They did not state they are being kidnapped and put in concentration camps. I countered with the usual arguments: they have entered the country illegally, many are engaged in horrific crimes, they are using up the welfare system, that Democrats have been employing illegal aliens to engage in fraudulent elections.
Nothing works.
So I’ve decided on a different tack. Since we were scheduled to meet in a month, I would record the number of crimes committed by illegal aliens in one month.
Even I was shocked:
- A Pakistani killed an American in a head-on collision.
- A Guatemalan raped an underage girl in Florida.
- Another Guatemalan murdered a young teenage boy, luring him with the promise of sex.
- In South Carolina, an illegal immigrant who was so drunk he could not stand was driving a vehicle and killed two black children on their bicycles.
= In a San Antonio, Texas park, an illegal immigrant punched a Mexican-American mother in the face, then proceeded to bite the face of her three-year-old daughter, who also lost two teeth.
- An illegal alien from El Salvador stabbed to death two women at a Wendy’s. ..............

Liberals don’t “think” they “feel”. Everything is based on how it makes you feel. Remember “If it feels good do it.”? That was a popular mantra from the ‘60s that came out of the liberal left coast.
Definition: The inward observation of one’s own conscious thoughts, feelings, and judgments.
Some haven’t mastered it it’s why they need them.
If you’ve noticed, their FIRST reaction is ANGER.
If you continue to discuss the issue, they will eventually resort to violence..................
I tell them they were either born that way or dropped as a baby.
Their record on violence may be a long one already but not known?.
Who would be friends with a liberal? I can’t stand to be in the same room with one. 🙄
if they admit they have been fooled
they look foolish
The target here is not actually liberals, but progressives.
You cannot reason with them, the progressives.
You can reason with everybody else though and gain a majority.
The Left cannot stand up to the test of reason and truth.
That’s why they’d rather just kill you.
Keep in mind, we all knew the vaccine would not stop you from getting Covid. I was vaxxed and got Covid though it was very mild. It also didn’t stop you from spreading Covid as I got Covid from a family member who was vaxxed. Some of my vaxxed liberal friends got Covid and got very sick. It was all I could do not to say “You should have gotten the vaccine like me”.
So the vaccine and mask just ended up being a virtue signal. I was on the team that created the Vaccine card Database for work. I got an award for doing it. When they took the picture during the award ceremony, I was the only one without a mask. When someone asked me to wear one, I responded “No need. I got the vaccine” (crickets, crickets).
You had to take a picture of your card and upload it. A random sample of images showed lots of middle fingers. Some people just can’t take a picture right.
I object to the writer saying liberals get their news from “mainstream media.” They get their news from Party organs, formerly referred to as mainstream media.
Well, good luck trying to use logic and facts to persuade a Democrat liberal. Mostly, they are not driven by facts and logic and probably won’t even listen to what you have to say. Mostly, they are driven by blind hate fueled by the media. See Tagline.
I was 45. But I was always a late-bloomer.
Sadly, friends of mine never grew up. I manage to stay friends with them, although we no longer have anything in common.
If these liberals want to kill babies they are NOT sane.
The line of liberalism is very fine. One can speak of budget allocation, forced charity and social responsibilities of the government...
But every single other topic crosses into that baby killing realm.
Libertarians are 50% liberal.
Having liberal friends is your first MAJOR error.
