No, I think it’s more like this....
The Left is mean.
The Right isn’t mean, we’re just pissed off. Once things are done OUR way, you’ll find we’re as nice as can be.
And the Left will still be mean, even if they get their way.
This mean reasearch is undoubtedly brought to us by Leftists.
Our side, which operates from a foundation of moral and ethical principles, is disarmed by attacks from opponents who believe their "ends" justifiy any "means." For them, right and wrong do not exist.
I think you are being way too kind. Toughen up. The barbarians are upon us.
The lefties will say Hitler was on the right. But ask them to distinguish what the difference is between Hitler and Stalin. The only significant difference between them was that Stalin got rid of all the private business and Hitler let them exist but under the boot of total state control. So allowing the illusion of private ownership of industry makes him conservative? I think not.
But the reality of the left's assertion that Hitler was on the right has nothing to do with reason. It is an emotional argument that Hitler was a big meanie so therefore he was on the right. Then they complete the circular logic to prove the right is mean thusly: "Hitler was a big meanie, therefore he was on the right. People on the right are big meanies because Hitler was on the right."
Cherry-picked data by a university finds that Left is not as “mean” as the Right. Film at 11 (after the coverage of the latest terrorist attack or shooting by some psychotic marxist or muslim... but that doesn’t count.)
Leftie academics say right is mean. That’s headline stuff.
Stop turning the country into a communist hellhole, and return us to how it’s supposed to be... And those of us on the right will calm down
Keep pushing towards communism/Marxism .... And you ain’t seen nothing yet
Bolobaby, you could also point to their choice of the word “immigrants” instead of “illegal aliens,” or at the very least “illegal immigrants.” To whatever degree Savage engages in “outrage talk,” I think it’s a distortion (as Obama would would say, a funhouse mirror image) to say he blasts immigrants.
An EXCELLENT point.
The research was sponsored by the Bernstein family at Tufts, per the article.
I guess Karl Marx was the original.
No, not the Bernstein family.
I stand corrected.
