Conversation with a Liberal Progressive
Myself ^ | April 2020 | Myself

Posted on 05/06/2020 3:35:42 PM PDT by YihYthink

My almost 4 years of going back & forth over politics and my perspective told through one of my characters

Progressives move in mysterious ways to a conservative mind it sometimes becomes frustrating and down right madding. So Sam with his back country approach to life’s mysteries opens the door into this the process. Sam has had almost 4 year dialog with Irish lady who is nice and is a genuine person with many good qualities that make that anyone would admire. Add in her strong progressive believes and if you are a conservative it just blows ones mind. So Sam tries to explain this and put a perspective on the differences. First topic ….. LOGIC

Or, “exercises in masochism...”

Universally the few I interact with due to family or work are completely programmed and beyond reaching.

Ronald Reagan: “Well, the trouble with our liberal friends is not that they’re ignorant; it’s just that they know so much that isn’t so.”

It is a shame that it has gotten that way but I took an oath as you did.

When you meet a true believer, you’d swear they grew up in Stepford.

The Truth to the Left is whatever they want the Truth to be.

>>When you meet a true believer, you’d swear they grew up in Stepford.

Marxism is a religion and its followers are zealots

https://www.marxist.com/reason-in-revolt-marxist-philosophy-and-modern-science/17.-chaos-theory.htm

Chaos theory
Dialectical materialism, elaborated by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels, was concerned with much more than political economy: it was a worldview. Nature, as Engels in particular sought to demonstrate in his writings, is proof of the correctness of both materialism and dialectics.

...Since their day, every important new advance in scientific discovery has confirmed the Marxian outlook although scientists, because of the political implications of an association with Marxism, seldom acknowledge dialectical materialism.

Based on what you just wrote, I swear I’m back at college talking the theory of abstract labor.

“Stalinists lie. Always”

Yes always.

You’re probably aware of how effective it and here are two examples:

During WWII Stalin never said Communism must be defended against Hitler/Fascism. In their propaganda, the Communists always said “We must defend Mother Russia”.

Stalin put millions in the gulags and indoctrination continued at a greater degree. When Stalin died, many in the Gulags cried that he had died.

Communism is insidiously evil.

When arguing with leftist liberal’s do you always have to bring it back to life

You either support life and babies - or you want to kill them

that’s the choice you give them

That’s the stark reality and the difference between liberals and conservatives

And it’s never been more clear than today when we have governors Kenny out there saying the baby can be born in and killed
