Liberals certainly have changed. They've gone from being open-minded, curious, tolerant people to something quite the opposite.
Not sure when that happened, but it really is a shame.
Please define "tolerant"?
It certainly shouldn't mean subservience, being steamrolled and SILENCE
Still waiting for answers to my direct questions posed in Post 1126 and again in Post 1197, I know you've seen them.
Then I'll be more than happy to answer yours.

You keep hiding behind those same issues. Please tell my why the only people you are critical of are liberals? You say you (somewhat) support gay marriage, but no matter how vile the right demeans gays, you are silent.
Tolerance does not mean someone should be silent and not stand up for what they believe. This is MY country too.
If you screen name has anything to do with when you were born, you are old enough to have witnessed the changes in America brought about by the conservative era that started with Nixon and metastasized under Reagan.
It's clear that you're not going to answer my question, so I'll assume that when you call me a fraud you know it isn't true. And this is why - and surely you also know this - why I have long since given up expecting honest conversation from partisans.
Still, I will be happy to answer your question, even though you refuse provide me the same courtesy.
It's my humble opinion, based on quite a bit of observation here and the in the "real world", that hardcore lefties are more likely to be dishonest, nasty and narcissistic. And, based on my own personal set of beliefs and standards, I find that
more objectionable than the hardcore righties' higher likelihood of being naive and easily mislead. Perhaps this is because I agree with the
Left on more issues than the
Right, who knows. But that's my opinion. And yes, it's entirely possible that I'm off-the-rails nuts, stipulated.
And - just to nip a potential straw man argument in the bud here - notice I said "more likely" and "higher likelihood". There are no absolutes.
There. I answered your question to the best of my ability.
