Must be that, "Everyone else is crazy but me." scenario
No, 'cause everyone isn't crazy but me. And everyone isn't stupid who disagrees with me. Like I said, I've had discussions with intelligent conservatives, but they're thin on the ground here.
Like the post I quoted. What was in there? A childish name-calling that the poster was stupid enough to think funny, and a false statement that anyone can verify is false with a quick Google search and five minutes of reading. What a total waste of bandwidth.
Mind you, there are some pretty dim left-wingers hereabouts, too (who shall remain nameless, and whose threads I generally avoid), but it seems like there are no smart conservatives here at all. And the board leans sharply right, so you'd think out of such a large sample there would be at least one or two worth talking to.
It's weird.
