Liberals are happier

[presonorek]

Whats-a-matter? You don't sound happy.

If happiness was the purpose of life then we should all take a bunch of morphine and lay in a 5 x 5 cell. I challenge anybody who believes that finding happiness is important.

Getting high on drugs provides that peace and happiness. Suicide provides that peace and happiness.

This is bad philosophy. It leads to very bad decisions that can crush an individual.

Liberals are smart. Smart people are rarely happy. I am never happy, I'm way too smart.

Stupid people? Now they can be happy, like so many here.

Progressives are not smart. They are mobsters.

I can't say for the progressives. I can say for the liberals. They are in a hell, of your making.

So who are the liberals?

Those who defend what you hate even though it founded this nation, liberalism.

What do I hate?

Everything that anyone else does that you don't approve of. Muslims, Gays, Atheists, Agnostics, Liberals, Communists, Socialists, Democrats, you name it, etc.

You would never fight for the rights of others, only yourself and those like you.

 

[presonorek]

When life sucks and it often does then you have to find happiness at all cost. Happiness is easy to find but that temporary happiness is a very destructive path.

Be a grown up and enjoy those miserable times. Sometimes misery can last for years. Sometimes for decades. Embrace it. That is part of being a human.

I would much rather be happy than live my life in abject terror at whatever the fear-of-the-day is.

oh you are talking about progressives(SJWs).

boooooring.

In summation, life is suffering. Most are far too stupid to have any idea what that means, who said it, and why if you can accept that then you are well on your way to be able to deal with life as it truly is.

Liberals must be happier because they don't worry about immigration. The border guards can handle the bad guys, and the good ones who come over were dreamers, struggling to make a good life. We are a rich country, we have plenty of welfare for them, and it's okay to let them practice their cultures and protest stuff; they will be good Americans soon anyway, one way or another.

Liberals are happier because they don't worry about the debt. Oh, we'll get that paid off sometime. It's no big deal. But, oh! Must we really spend millions of dollars on an aircraft carrier? Can't we negotiate peace and show how strong America can be through diplomacy and conversation? Oh, we will soon. We'll make the rich pay more! It's coming!

They are fine with education. Oh yes, the liberal education system was just what we need. Awareness, tolerance, kindness, and understanding must be taught in our classrooms. So the Pledge of Allegiance and prayer was removed, but that's okay, we'll teach our kids all that at home. Competitive sports should be toned down, for every child has a right to feel like a winner. All kids are perfect! America comes in 48th in the world in math and science in public schools, but oh well, guess the government needs to find them jobs anyway

Affordable government health care was a wonderful concept. After all, it's good enough for our servicemembers (the VA) and they get the best! Now we can have that for ourselves and it will be so much better for all of us.

Liberals were so glad when renewable energy began to be a reality. They imagined peaceful wind farms, nice quiet solar panels, and Toyota Priuses everywhere. Relying on fossil fuels and coal was dirty and nasty! It killed environments for the whatever favored endangered species and was full of accidents.


But I'm saying this now because this is what the left thinks and acts upon. They have closed their minds to what is best. You really can't blame them; they sleep well and they have this mindset that everything they do is perfect. All they know is that their candidate is ahead in all the polls and all the media outlets support their candidate. How nice.

Being a conservative is a hell of a lot harder, more frustrating, and definitely not comfortable.

But it's the right thing to be ... if you care. And that's the difference.

Ignorance is bliss.

I could have said Nazis, other Fascists, Christians, Jews, Pedophiles, Prostitutes, Anarchists, and Furries. The point would have been the same, you only defend what you believe in not what others have a right to. As a liberal I defend my rights, your rights, and the rights of all others.

I would much rather live my life being happy too. But I would also prefer not to live in complete ignorance of the realities and terrors of it either.

Terror? And just what "terrors" are you being subject to?

Perhaps you should ask Doc, he used the word "terror" in that context. I'm not saying I'm experiencing any terror right now, but there can certainly be some terror that comes your way as life goes on. We should not ignore it.

Liberals are smart. Smart people are rarely happy. I am never happy, I'm way too smart.

Stupid people? Now they can be happy, like so many here.

Actually hearing you are never happy just made me more happy.

You really don't know my life.

I can say with near-certainty that I have personally experienced nearly all of the biggest fears that seen to plague so many on the right.

 

[TemplarKormac]

You really don't know my life.

I never professed to, nor did I claim to know anything about your life. No need to get defensive, Doc.

The stupid usually delight in the suffering of others. Slapstick comedy works for just that reason.

Hmm. So you're mocking them. That's what it sounds like to me. Suffice it to say you know nothing of their lives either.

Terrorism, illegal immigrants, Muslims in general, children's fads, gay people, how things have changed from the imaginary good old days, popular music, "satanists", feminists, black people, etc etc.

You know, the topics of some staggeringly high percentage of threads posted by righties on this board.

How does it sound like that? I'm genuinely curious.

I can't say that there's no "mockery" in my comments. But they do not change the focus and thesis of my argument.

Liberals are smart. Smart people are rarely happy. I am never happy, I'm way too smart.

Not smart enough to figure out how to be happy I guess.

To be happy one must be stupid, therefore blind and ignorant

I can see why miserable people would say stuff like that, but it is not true. Smartest people I know are optimistic, enthusiastic, forward looking and yes, happy.

Well, looking at his qualifiers, you must be the happiest person in the world.
