Student op-ed: Conservatives ‘must re-evaluate their beliefs’

Campus Reform ^ | March 5, 2018 | Toni Airaksinen

[Opinionated Blowhard]

GW doesn’t need more dialogue on campus between the right and the left. We need for conservatives to be called on to re-evaluate their political views and actions.

The Left holds "dialogue" until they are in the majority, then they stop the dialogue and move to "you better re-evaluate your beliefs or else."

[DaveA37]

A “Lib” wants “...conservative peers to “re-evaluate their beliefs,”.......

Imagine if everyone thought like the demodummies. A true, certified “Cluster F”

[chesley]

There’s plenty of resources to challenge liberal beliefs, too. How come they never are called upon to re-evaluate their beliefs?

And WHY must we do it?

[Robert DeLong]

Or perhaps he just assumed it was written by her? Her name is not mentioned on or in that article anywhere, which is what prompted my question. 8>)

[tomkat]

Couldn't have done it without your magnificent inspiration !   ;-)

[rjsimmon]

Reasonable question. I read the article and could tell the difference, even thought I often miss that little gem...

I went to the opinion piece and they had turned off comments. Can’t imagine why...

[tomkat]

Very well said !

[Disambiguator]

A George Washington University student is encouraging his conservative peers to “re-evaluate their beliefs,” informing them that they “have access to endless resources that challenge conservative ideals.”

I re-evaluate my beliefs constantly, and I've found that they consistently square with reality, while "liberal" ideology is pure fantasy or wishful thinking.

College first semester know-it-all op-ed writers are the most ill informed people on the planet.

[chesley]

You left out “evil”.

“GW doesn’t need more dialogue on campus between the right and the left,” he concluded. “We need for conservatives to be called on to re-evaluate their political views and actions.”

Yeah. "The time for diversity of opinion is over. Conform or die!" I've got some blowback of my own for this little Eichmann.

My op-ed to Naseem - SHUT UP!

Betting he’s not a natural born citizen.

[savedbygrace]

Liberal/Facists believe that if they force everyone to pay more taxes so fedgov can give money and benefits to the poor and needy, it means they are generous and giving.

Further they believe that because conservatives believe such giving needs to come from individuals rather than fedgov, they, the conservatives, are greedy and selfish.

Such illogic originates in an evil mind and it truly based on greed and selfishness.

[Robert DeLong]

Apparently he wasn’t getting the support he had envisioned he would get. 8>)

[rjsimmon]

Yup.

1st year, majoring in PoliSci and has a bonehead opinion. Whodathunkit?

[JBW1949]

I did miss that, yes, I did...

[trebb]

Someone needs to give him this statement by Herbert Spencer, a noted sociologist some time back:

“There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance - that principle is contempt prior to investigation”

I've also seen it attributed to William Paley
