do you hate the other side?

Conservatives do you hate liberals? Liberals do you hate conservatives?

Hate is wasted energy. I rarely meet liberals in Burley Idaho
USMB is just recreation for me. Sorta like sitting Golf.

 

[Moonglow]

No reason to hate someone when just discussing...

I must be honest and state that I hold in disdain those on the other side who are clearly racists.....Obviously not all are, but some surely are.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

I despise a "progressive" with every fiber of my being.

I'm curious about Conservatives, but I don't hate them. I wonder why their values that the trumpet with such zeal are so elastic and easily dismissed when their political heroes turn out to be such brutes. I wonder what happened to the intellectual side of Conservatism. Why are they embracing the low brow and why do they think that is a winning and governing position.

But to hate a fellow American on political grounds is a non starter for any real American.

Conservatism is for the most part motivated by fear – fear of change in particular, along with fear of diversity and dissent, and the errant perception that change and diversity pose some sort of ‘threat.’

The reactionaryism common to most on the right is cause for warranted, appropriate concern, the right’s propensity for authoritarianism, their desire to compel conformity through force of law, and to disadvantage those indeed perceived as a ‘threat.’

But that warranted and appropriate concern isn’t ‘hate,’ one can defend the rights and protected liberties of Americans from attack by conservatives with reason and rational discourse.

fear????
Fear in the Bible is reverential awe. Most of us cons have reverently awe of God

A better way to say it, rather than 'hate' would be that I believe them to be evil, destructive, and counter to the notion of freedom. And by them, I mean anyone that would seek take what doesn't belong to them, to infringe on another's rights or in the case of government, anyone that would support redistribution of wealth or mandatory programs that impose restrictions, fines, or imprisonment on consenting adults. That applies to both Ds and Rs.

Okay, I hate them.

I don't consider myself either liberal or conservative, so I don't care.

was this an "ad hoc fallacy" or a "red herring fallacy"?........

 

[Mac1958]

Nowadays, the term "hate" has been dumbed down to mean "disagree with", so the question would need to be parsed.

But yeah, by the traditional standard of the term "hate", one can see real hatred from the wingers on both ends. Seething, visceral hatred.

These people must somehow be culturally marginalized before any real healing and progress can begin in earnest.

I don't really "hate" anyone. I loathe and despise some people. However, I think there is a clear distinction. Hate infers violent antipathy, malice and enmity. I just have disdain, and it's not for the person but who the person is inside, their beliefs, thoughts and opinions.

Conservatives do you hate liberals? Liberals do you hate conservatives?

I don't hate liberals. What I detest is that they are teaching our children that "the ends justifies the means". That it's OK to be dishonest as long as you get what you want in the end.

In the long run it is a horrific mindset.

Conservatives do you hate liberals? Liberals do you hate conservatives?

I hate anyone and everyone that's anti white in ANY form....conservative and liberal are merely labels especially since they work together so often to do nothing but harm my race. I don't see things through a republican or democrat view I look at it through a view of whether its good or bad for my race.

 

[Rustic]

Conservatives do you hate liberals? Liberals do you hate conservatives?

I don't hate anyone, but I hate that progressives want to force progressivism/socialism on everybody especially those that want nothing to do with it....
progressivism/socialism destroys any sort of freedom and individuality.

How very Christian of you.

Totally side issue, but isn't it sad to devote your entire identity to protect a race that doesn't exist?
