How to Test Liberal "Tolerance"

[The2ndAmendment]

Disagree with them.

 

[Publius1787]

Disagree with them.

Liberals by their very nature are beta males/females. Utilizing notions like "hate speech" and being "offended" as to ascribe to themselves a permanent victim status is the only way they can gain power. This is why conservatives are far more tolerant. No true conservative cries that he/she is "offended." They have enough confidence within themselves to achieve success without demanding that others be forced to suffer for their misgivings and failures. A can-do attitude prevents the conservative from entering the beta territory of liberalism, and thus, they are far less likely to blame their troubles on others, which of course, breeds tolerance. Liberals, on the other hand, lack self confidence, and thus, develop an intolerant attitude to those who exemplify the cultural opposite of their beta notions of "collective well being." Alphas are individuals who can take care of themselves. Betas demand that Alphas partake in taking care of them. Being that we are an Alpha oriented America, liberals need be extra intolerant if they are to achieve their cultural Marxist dream of "sharing" the Alphas bounty.

"Liberal tolerance?" Is that like jumbo shrimp or government intelligence?

In all fairness, I think it's been quite a while since I've seen a liberal claim to be either "tolerant" or "open-minded".

Just sayin'.

Conservative victim-hood...

"All people are born alike—except Republicans and Democrats," quipped Groucho Marx, and in fact it turns out that personality differences between liberals and conservatives are evident in early childhood. In 1969, Berkeley professors Jack and Jeanne Block embarked on a study of childhood personality, asking nursery school teachers to rate children's temperaments. They weren't even thinking about political orientation.

Twenty years later, they decided to compare the subjects' childhood personalities with their political preferences as adults. They found arresting patterns. As kids, liberals had developed close relationships with peers and were rated by their teachers as self-reliant, energetic, impulsive, and resilient. People who were conservative at age 23 had been described by their teachers as easily victimized, easily offended, indecisive, fearful, rigid, inhibited, and vulnerable at age 3. The reason for the difference, the Blocks hypothesized, was that insecure kids most needed the reassurance of tradition and authority, and they found it in conservative politics.

The Republican Approach to Government: Authoritarian Rule

The Republican Approach to Government: Authoritarian Rule

Republicans rule, rather than govern, when they are in power by imposing their authoritarian conservative philosophy on everyone, as their answer for everything. This works for them because their interest is in power, and in what it can do for those who think as they do. Ruling, of course, must be distinguished from governing, which is a more nuanced process that entails give-and-take and the kind of compromises that are often necessary to find a consensus and solutions that will best serve the interests of all Americans.

Republicans' authoritarian rule can also be characterized by its striking incivility and intolerance toward those who do not view the world as Republicans do. Their insufferable attitude is not dangerous in itself, but it is employed to accomplish what they want, which is to take care of themselves and those who work to keep them in power.

Authoritarian conservatives are primarily anti-government, except where they believe the government can be useful to impose moral or social order (for example, with respect to matters like abortion, prayer in schools, or prohibiting sexually-explicit information from public view). Similarly, Republicans' limited-government attitude does not apply regarding national security, where they feel there can never be too much government activity - nor are the rights and liberties of individuals respected when national security is involved. Authoritarian Republicans do oppose the government interfering with markets and the economy, however - and generally oppose the government's doing anything to help anyone they feel should be able to help themselves.

In my book Broken Government: How Republican Rule Destroyed the Legislative, Executive and Judicial Branches, I set forth the facts regarding the consequences of the Republicans' controlling government for too many years. No Republican - nor anyone else, for that matter - has refuted these facts, and for good reason: They are irrefutable.

The merits of your statements notwithstanding: What do those points have to do with "tolerance" ???

Name one misgiving or failure, conservatives have taken responsibility for?

Just one!

Hey I can answer that. They have great misgiving over their failure to impeach Clinton.
And they do feel bad they couldn't stop Obamacare.

Man, short list for all the rethug fuck ups.

I bet they also feel bad about not keeping the government shutdown?

Tolerance does NOT mean AGREEMENT.

Hence the basic premise of this thread is based on confusion about what a word means.

I thought I was missing something. Good catch.

Soon there will be a right wing whacko coming to list all the great things the Repubs have done in the past 10 years or so.

You think Iraq will be the crowning accomplishment they point to with pride?

 

[deltex1]

Repubs should feel bad about not standing up to and destroying obama. The weakest, most ineffective president in history.....and he's still there.

Hey when you have no good ideas or accomplishments, you have to stand for SOMETHING. Right?
