I fucking hate these shitheads, I was arguing with one earlier and no matter how many facts I gave him with proper sources he just refused to actually show any kind of respect

    And this is why I keep telling the “you just have to vote harder!” liberals that they have no idea who they are dealing with. You cannot possibly win them over with “better ideas”. There is no “marketplace of ideas”. You cannot give them unlimited free speech because “thise ideas have to be in the open to be challenged”. NONE of it works because they are not human beings capable of thought or reason.

      they are not human beings capable of thought or reason.

      Not that I don’t agree entirely with everything else you’ve written. The left routinely has this severe problem where they’re unable to acknowledge people for who they are and out of natural idealism convince themselves that if the opposition desires something harmful, it must only be because they don’t understand they’re doing harm.

      Therefore, all one must do to combat evil is to go, “nooo, stop, you’re going to make someone sad!” and after that doesn’t work, they’re out of ideas so they just keep trying the golden rule over and over.

      But holy shit, dude. They can be vicious. They can even be dangerous enough to pose an unacceptable threat to life. They’re still human.

          You come off like the kind of person who would laugh at a hanging, and by your own metric, I would be forced to label you inhuman on that basis. I’m going to refuse because otherwise, we’re just playing No True Scotsman with our own species. The biggest problem with people is that they are people.

            Okay then, what sort of True Scotsman thinks its okay to punish, torture or kill others for simply wanting to live their life as they want and without harming others in any way? What Scotsman is that?

      Comments like this are what the normal conservative gets pointed at, to show them that liberal ideas are dangerous. So thanks for that.

        You are really concerned about what a conservative thinks?? Show me a case where they ever said “oh liberals have a great idea here!” The most you’ll ever find is pointing to Zell Miller, saying “SEE?? HE WANTS A WAR TOO!!!” Nobody should ever give one single flying fuck what a goddamn fascist rightoid thinks. If you do you’re in the wrong perr group.
