Why right wing beliefs are so crazy

[The T]

This stupid shit again?

What's stupid is you commenting on a book you haven't read and doing everything it said you would do.

Why would I read anything with this title:

The Republican Brain: The Science of Why They Deny Science—and Reality

The assumption that conservatives deny science and reality is fucking retarded... but hey, have it.. apparently it appeals to you.

Apparently to the left that operates on grounds of dillusion? it'd be appropriate, don't you think?

It is laughable and dangerous at the same time...supposedly these idiots are allowed to vote.

What are "left wing beliefs"? Democrats make no claim to family values or morality so what do they believe in? A "condom in every wallet" seems to sum up the democrat party slogan for 2012.

Republicans say it all the time, but they sure don't demonstrate it. Actions speak louder than words, remember??

Essay from Mooney's new book, The Republican Brain: The Science of Why They Deny Science--and Reality

Yes, its from a liberal source and yes, its a science-based book but I hope rw's don't dismiss it out of hand. There really are some excellent points - even for the crazy right wing.

You might even see your own reflection ...

Actually, that is too be considered. And it is not quite accurate of the true RW platform as it once was but a good read none the less.

Good post.

Short, simple, but true.

So modern liberals all actually have Down's Syndrome and the president is literally fecal matter.

Got it.

You catch on quick, you are not a normal run of the mill libtard.

Define "libtard."

Right wing beliefs are based on mythology.

Science flies you to the moon.

Religion flies you into buildings.

Just goes to show that one does not have to be religious to be bigoted.

Negged.

For Republicans America is a platform for individual fulfillment. But here's the catch: the Individual is defined in the narrowest possible terms. Any notion of the "The Public Good" is seen as "Socialism" (socialism being anything the government does for the non-wealthy). The Free Market will fix New Orleans levees. The Free Market will effectively control the amount of derivative based risk Wall Street will take. The Free Market will get us off imported oil(rather than spending decades making terrorists stronger). The Free Market will keep our rivers clean. The Free Market will make healthcare more efficient. The Free Market won't bribe Washington in order to increase it's profit margin. We don't need to worry about "The Public Good", individual selfishness driven by short term profit is a utopian reflex.

But the world doesn't work that way. Selfishness harms society....tears it apart....destroys the world economy....spills millions of barrels of oil in the Gulf of Mexico.....tears a hole in the ozone...creates a garbage patch in the Pacific Ocean twice the size of Texas...melts the North Polar ice cap.....creates massive deficits by giving huge tax breaks to the wealthy....

But the Republicans celebrate this selfishness. It is their core value. For them greed is good.

If some of you ever had a original thought go through your head it would be the fastest trip in the world.

Because you don't judge a book by its cover.

Hey, about that? Not original, but it fits. You say the "assumption" is "retarded", but without reading the book, you have no clue as to what context science and reality are denied. But you did prove what you're claiming the book doesn't, a denial of reality. Because thinking you know what the book is about without ever reading it, is not real. Yet you treat it like it is.

 

[Billo_Really]

Grab onto what ever contemporary heroes you think represent your belief system lefties but Chris Mooney is just a kid who was fresh out of college when 9-11 happened. Chances are he was farting through diapers when Reagan was president. If you want to follow him down the road to greenie globalist warming adventures it's your business but don't expect anyone to believe his crapola.

Another emotional rant about something he know nothing about. Dragging in irrational and irrelevant items and thinking he just made a point.

Do you lie awake at night dreaming this stupid shit up?

In other words, you got nothing.

Typical.

Another right wing attempt at voter suppression. You can't handle a difference of opinion, so you have to silence the opposition.

And you think that's an American value?

That's it in a nutshell.

And when you talk to them it always boils down to two issues...welfare and illegal immigrants.

They love to hate the poor.

Good thing that being a socialist politician or bureaucrat means that the human failing of selfishness doesn't apply to you....Yup, really good thing.
