I've came to the conclusion that Liberal Democrats are more close minded, uneducated on politics and intolerant

Than the majority of Conservative Republicans.

That has been well know for years. They call themselves 'progressive' Other notable progressives were Stalin, Hitler, Mao.

@hippyjoe1955 I'll tell you what, I'll grovel and even send you a video of me groveling if you can find me proof of a liberal saying that their for the Aryan racial survival, white working class people, or citizenship and privileges only for Aryans. I'm about 90% sure you can't because most of them are far right wing groups who are heavily anti immigrant with a focus on the white race. I dare you to prove it though for what it's worth 🤷

Yeah about socialism killing millions, all systems can have the ability to be screwed because humans themselves are prone to fallacies, it just depends on who leads them that makes the system good or bad.

To say that our system in America hasn't had an issue with income inequality leading to extreme poverty in children or killing in the name of imperialism in other countries would be a lie.

@SatanBurger You have never heard of the 'white privilege' campain? Same crap as the Aryan nonsense Hitler spewed just different colour. The 1% campaign a few years ago reminded me that Hitler hated 1% too. His hatred was toward rich Jews but it was 1% just the same. Amazing how things never change.

@hippyjoe1955 That's a lie and it's not even close to what people talk about when referencing the 1%. The 1% is talk about actual income inequality and the fact that a tiny fraction of people now holds 80% of the worlds wealth. This number has actually risen a bit in recent years making poverty worse.

Before the Jewish people became "wealthy" they were already facing backlash from emancipation. Then when they became wealthy that just led to more anger and racism which Hitler fed off of.

That's a far cry from the already income inequality that we have going on right now.

[quote]During the second half of the 19th century, as the Jews emancipation throughout most of Europe led to their increasing integration into society and into the modern economy, it elicited a backlash. Anti-Semitism, some of it murderous, rose across the continent, including in Germany. When the Jews were kept apart in the ghetto, and limited to certain professions, it was possible to accuse them of clannishness, and resent the interest they charged on loans. But when they emerged from the ghetto, and became captains of industry and finance, and socially and intellectually prominent, there was a whole new set of reasons to hate them. The success of the emancipated Jews was perhaps even more galling than the poverty and degradation of disenfranchised Jews – and it gave rise to racial theories that posited an essential biological difference in them.[/quote]

Yeah! Let's alienate half the country and then wonder why everything is going to hell!

@StoicGrappler That's maybe not an entire grasp of the situation, but a good synopsis

@SW-User yup, the world is unfortunately more complex than a sentence long quip. But alienating half of your fellow citizens is a terrible way to address any problem.

I've come to the conclusion that conservative Republicans only care about themselves, don't understand what 'conserve' really means and would rather push an ideology than actually compromise, than the majority of liberal Democrats. See how that works?
Scubaguy027 · 46-50, M
@SW-User @abe182 what you both have said applies to both parties in some ways. Personally it seems to me that both sides don't wish to compromise and have the appearance of weakness. And both parties have lost sight of what is truly important. Just a personal observation.
abe182 · 46-50, M
@Scubaguy027 you are absolutely correct. They only care about their power and getting re-elected. The best thing we can do is not to re-elect any incumbent.
SW-User
@abe182 Agreed. Everyone in current office has got to go.

They're not true liberals. They're progressive and anti-liberal, they've just usurped the liberal name. Find a classical liberal and you'll be pleasantly surprised.
abe182 · 46-50, M
@Sicarium that's why I'm a libertarian. No party confusion.
Sicarium · 46-50, M
@abe182 The downside to that is you end up ceding the entire DNC to people who openly oppose freedom.

I'd much rather see classical liberals take back their party than a further fragmentation of the political landscape.
abe182 · 46-50, M
@Sicarium I would as well! But both parties only want power and more power. That's it.
Good for you. Care to share how to came to that conclusion?

If not, that's cool.

@MistyCee Care to show how you came to the conclusion that 90% of Fox viewers haven't read a book since Bill O'Reilly left? What's the connection between Bill O'Reilly leaving and reading a book?
That was unkind of me, @Harley4Life

@GunSmoke9 I should be apologizing to all Fox viewers really. I'm sure lots of them do read, but it seemed like O'Reilly was always a plugging his own books.
@MistyCee actually I'm a college graduate
