I Could Be Wrong….

…but that’d be a first!


1.This is what I had in mind: Liberals are fearful folks, and need the reassurance of being part of a mob, a crowd, a group. There is a well-known phrase that memorializes the idea: Lock-Step Liberal. And Lock-stepping has an uncanny similarity to ‘Goose-stepping,’ and we all know what that refers to, the National Socialist Workers Party….er, I mean the Democrat Party.

2. Liberals, in my experience, are fearful folks who need the bodyguard of big government because they are vulnerable, battered emotional hypochondriacs....they need to insure themselves against every societal misadventure that could occur. They call that 'empathy,' but it's actually neurosis. They have some sort of metaphorical bullet lodged near their heart, just waiting for a slight move which will end it all! Thus, the overwhelming feeling of incipient failure, and apprehension. And, recognizing their own weakness, they lash out at those willing to depend on themselves.



3. Coulter put it this way: “The mob mentality is irresistible to people with a desperate need to be popular, and are perennially afraid of getting a bloody nose on the playground of life. A tell-tale sign is the use of terms like “us” and “we” when they write, or speak…as these pronouns speak of popularity, of membership in the larger group…i.e. the mob.”

4. People desperate for a badge of identity are highly susceptible to groupthink, in fierce need of a ‘guide,’ and, so, the “foolish, ignorant, and envious persons are freed from the sense of their insignificance and powerlessness.”
Le Bon, “The Crowd: A Study of The Popular Mind,” p.22.




5. They abhor standing up by themselves and elucidating their beliefs, and their most common statement about beliefs is something like, “yeah….me too!!”

Two things one never comes across is a. a Liberal who can defend and explain the doctrines put forth by their party, and b. one ready to offer several books that have formed his geopolitical outlook.

But they love, love, love being able to point to the throng to which they belong, and claim…”all of us, that’s what we all believe!” Cogs in the big wheel of Liberalism.
The aggregation is their authentication, consensus validates their existence, belonging is what their lives are about….and they know what will happen to them if they digress.



Now, here’s why the above is pertinent. While conservatives are 180° opposite the above characteristics, the result is that we on the Right champion individualism, and those described above, the Left, favor collectivism, group-think, following orders.
And it boils down to this: If Liberals are in power, we become a collectivist, socialist nation.
If conservatives are in power.....freedom and liberty.

Liberals want us to all embrace the suck, but they jump at the opportunity to avoid the suck.

...what would be so terrible if other opinions, ideas, beliefs were allowed?

Traditionally it has been religions that won't tolerate dissenting opinions or other religions. How many times did Catholics wage war on Protestants or Protestants wage war on Catholics or Hindus wage war on Muslims, etc. over the centuries? Alas, politics or religion we still have human nature and people who will defame people who don't believe as they do. Sound familiar?

"Traditionally it has been religions that won't tolerate dissenting opinions or other religions."

Exactly.


And as we have learned, the most intolerant religion every produced is yours, ...Militant Secularism.

From the Amazon review of Godless, by Coulter…


Though liberalism rejects the idea of God and reviles people of faith, it bears all the attributes of a religion. In Godless, Coulter throws open the doors of the Church of Liberalism, showing us its sacraments (abortion), its holy writ (Roe v. Wade), its martyrs (from Soviet spy Alger Hiss to cop-killer Mumia Abu-Jamal), its clergy (public school teachers), its churches (government schools, where prayer is prohibited but condoms are free), its doctrine of infallibility (as manifest in the "absolute moral authority" of spokesmen from Cindy Sheehan to Max Cleland), and its cosmology (in which mankind is an inconsequential accident).

Then, of course, there's the liberal creation myth: Charles Darwin's theory of evolution.

For liberals, evolution is the touchstone that separates the enlightened from the benighted.
And....Franklin Delano Roosevelt, "...the Socialist Savior of the Democratic Party."

I don't consider myself a 'militant' anything and I don't know that I've ever met a Militant Secularist. It's almost like you need to belittle and dismiss my values since they differ from yours. That's not being very tolerant.

Gee.....shocking.....you don't agree .

"It's almost like you need to belittle and dismiss my values"

See, that's wrong, too: I don't 'need' to......I like to.


Welcome to the karma cafe....there are no menus but you will get what you deserve.

I will protect your statues I will protect your beans ,,Your grandmother is on her own........D Trump

Do I even need to tell you that if the only response you have to is invent quotes, you have no response?

Oh, wait, I forgot who I was talking to. OF COURSE you're dumb enough to need that explained.

 

[Cecilie1200]

Be fair.....this one only lies a tenth the number of that other dunce.

And there is sadly no shortage of people willing to post one-liner troll BS.

 

[Cecilie1200]

And you’re lying. You post threads so you can heap abuse on the FB liberals who discredit and debunk your bullshit.

You can’t even defend the crap you post, nor do you have any debating skills. Reposting your OP endlessly when challenged on its content isn’t “debating”.

Insulting people who debunk your alt-right lies isn’t debating either.

I just heard, "These criticisms work really well on me, so I assume they just work in general, because I don't understand that words have meanings."

You know what isn't debating, LizardBitch? This post of yours. Whenever your thought masters get around to issuing you a rebuttal, do please share it with us, won't you?

I'm glad you take such pleasure from your intolerance. And now we have learned, the most intolerant religion ever produced is yours, ...Militant Right-Wing Ideologue.

Gov Hogan isn't wrong
'Sink or swim': GOP Gov. Larry Hogan says Trump left states to fight alone as COVID-19 pandemic raged
William Cummings
USA TODAY

Funny, these gentlemen seem to think he IS wrong.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/04/20/reshape-his-coronavirus-narrative-trump-is-touting-praise-democratic-governors/

“His team is on it,” Cuomo said in that video. “They’ve been responsive, late at night, early in the morning, and they’ve thus far been doing everything that they can do, and I want to say thank you, and I want to say I appreciate it.”

“He returns calls, he reaches out, he’s been proactive,” Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.) said in the next clip.
Gov. Phil Murphy (D-N.J.) was shown sharing the news that Trump called him to say he could have beds in the USNS Comfort military hospital ship.

And this is from an article trying to attack and belittle him.

PC do you get it yet They kiss trumps ass to get what they need
Trump Demands Praise From Governors in Return for Aid
theintercept.com › 2020/03/28 › exchange-aid-trump-...

Mar 27, 2020 - Trump extorts praise from Democratic governors, then uses it in a campaign commercial that casts him as the hero of the coronavirus crisis.

Eddiew, do YOU get it yet? No one believes your attempts to spin, and no one respects your word for anything.

 

[Cecilie1200]

At least she's up front about her dog illegally voting. Gotta admire her honesty.

I'm just shocked that she chose THAT as her first time ever being honest.

 

[PoliticalChic]

I'm glad you take such pleasure from your intolerance. And now we have learned, the most intolerant religion ever produced is yours, ...Militant Right-Wing Ideologue.

And yet you keep returning for more beatings.


Leopold Ritter von Sacher-Masoch would be so very proud of you.

 

[Cecilie1200]

That was always my line. Until Trump. The destination is irrelevant if the bus driver is a drunken lout.

I'll walk.

Sadly, in this case, walking is not an option. You HAVE to get on a bus, so which driver are you going to pick?

 

[PoliticalChic]

"I could be wrong..."

Yep. You are. Good call.

Yet another 'is not, isssssss nooootttttt!' post from an insipid, inbred, moron.

One more example of the result of government schooling.....no ability to produce a cogent argument or a substantive post.

Bathroom wall graffiti is the extent of their writing abilities.

 

[Dragonlady]

You're not chatting with family here......learn to use civil language, no matter how deeply my posts have wounded you.

You’re not posting to anyone who gives a rat’s ass about your opinion. You don’t even write your own posts. Cut and paste is all you know.

I just heard, "These criticisms work really well on me, so I assume they just work in general, because I don't understand that words have meanings."

You know what isn't debating, LizardBitch? This post of yours. Whenever your thought masters get around to issuing you a rebuttal, do please share it with us, won't you?

“Thought masters”??? You mean guys like Trump who tweet hate at his enemies and then you come here and parrot his words?

Only people like the OP come here can’t write an independent idea because she doesn’t have one.

 

[Cecilie1200]

Here’s a clue for the terminally stupid. De-segregation does not = “destruction”. Quite the opposite.


And there go. Proving my post to be correct and telling me what to do.

Go **** yourself.

Here's a clue for the evilly stupid: destruction isn't de-segregation, and no amount of lying on your part will make it so.

If you don't want to be told what to do, perhaps you should stop inserting yourself into politics that are none of your ******* business.

Go back to America's hat and **** yourself.

Canada is where you go when you want to be grateful you're American . . . and also be able to drink the tap water.
