Liberalism is a belief system. You can't win over believers by telling them they are wrong. They will only dig their heels deeper. It's like telling a muslim Mohammed was not a prophet but just some two bit conniving pedophile. What will likely happen is not some curious muzzie going online or to a library to research facts, but a riot - followed by bloodshed, dead bodies, torched cars, shattered windows, smoke, fire.. and issues of fatwas.

Yep, had a lib tell me this week there never has been Communism. A true believer in some socialist utopia that only exists on paper.

The McCarthy "witchhunt" was misguided because although there were people calling themselves Communist and although there were governments calling themselves Communist, it was "wrong" to persecute "the Communists" because (A)they meant no harm, (B)they had good intensions, and (C)the foreign power they served "wasn't really Communist anyway, it was State Capitalism".

And Islam isn't really the death cult founded by a conquering warlord...

Yes, when a belief becomes so central to a person’s life that they would not exist as the same person without that belief they will kill rather than examine the basis for that belief. Of this I have no doubt.
