Why Are There No Democrat Intellectuals?

Levin, Hanson, Sowell, Thomas ect ..
I’ll give you Hanson and Sowell. Are you referring to Clarence Thomas? Seems like a stretch. Levin is just a loudmouth.

Fareed Zakharia, Ezra Klein, Dylan Matthews, Heather Cox Richardson are some of my favorites on the left.

You used to have people like George Will and David Frum, but they got excommunicated.
 
You've served the role you were born to serve: a tool to prove every OP I post.

You can leave now.
I rest my case. Just as I predicted, forecasted, foretold, prognosticated, and prophesied:

This poster is 100% an impotent joke unable to debate.
 
And just where does that say he is a God ?

I have no problem with people looking to Diety for help in doing good things.

Her post was about the fact that you called one of your candidates a god.

I get that you can't discern the difference, but it really is discouraging to see a liar like you try to look smart.
 
I think we can all agree that Trumpsters are far more intelligent, accurately informed and emotionally stable than anyone who doesn't think exactly like they do. So it's only fair to assume that only Trumpsters have intellectuals.

I mean, that's just a GIVEN. The rest of us on the planet can only aspire to their level of intellect and knowledge.
that's the most accurate thing you've ever posted .. there may be hope for you yet .. acknowledging and recognizing your superiors is a healthy step in the right direction !
 
1. That means here, on the board. There certainly are Leftist intellectuals....Johnson actually wrote a book titled "Intellectuals." And, of course there was Kal Marx, Alinsky, Gramsci, Lenin, Mao......


2.Definition: An intellectual is a person who engages in critical thinking, research, and reflection about the nature of reality, especially the nature of society and proposed solutions for its normative problems. Google.



3.But here on the board, basking in the most beautiful aspect of America, free speech, we can't seem to get beyond cursing and juvenile tit-for-tats that don't address the pivotal aspect of our Left-Right views. Where are the "good point," or "I never thought of that" or "I don't agree because..."?
Where are the carefully posited view points, documented with important quotes and statements by names we all know and respect?
While this board could be college or grad school, it is largely junior high.



4.So where are the clearly written, well thought out, documented beyond simple opinion, OPs about why the Left/Far Left (that's the Democrat Party today) is better for America and Americans, and how they wil bring their plans to fruition? In an article today, Chuck Todd reveals that the Democrats have no ability to do any of those things, and voters who just vote for the party no matter what, are the same.


5. ""I think this is the identity crisis that the (Democrat Party has). I think it’s just a collection of people that don’t like Trump...."
This is a party whose sole platform since June 16th, 2015, when Trump descended the golden escalator at Trump Tower, has been hatred of a man they once revered.

They, quite literally, stand for nothing else. And their movement from center-left to radical far-left is just a sign of the intensity of that hatred growing ever more extreme."




Anyway, we could have a lot more stimulating discussions.......debated.
LOL In other words, anyone that disagrees with your far right views is not an intellectual. LOL
 
I rest my case. Just as I predicted, forecasted, foretold, prognosticated, and prophesied:
You made no case and nothing you have predicted happened.

You are supposed to be some executive in analytics.

What a whopper that turned out to be.
 
Its demonstrable failure has removed any intellectual basis for socialism, turning it into little more than emotional nostalgia.
Dumb ass, our National Park system is the purest form of socialism that exists. Preserving the very best and most unique for the enjoyment of all. And there is no successful nation that does not have a mix of socialism and capitalism.
 
And just where does that say he is a God ?

Where did I claim Trump said he is God?

When did I call Obama a god?

I mean what the hell are you talking about?

ONLY Trump has ever said, with his own words, that God selected him for a purpose. NO other candidate has made that claim.

“I’m supposed to be dead,” Donald Trump said, the day after he got shot at his rally last summer in Butler, Pennsylvania. “I’m not supposed to be here,” he said four days after that. “But something very special happened. Let’s face it. Something happened,” he said two days after that. “It’s … an act of God,” he said the month after that. “God spared my life for a reason,” he said in his victory speech at Mar-a-Lago in November. “I was saved by God to make America great again,” he said in his inaugural address at the Capitol in January. “It changed something in me,” he said in his speech at the National Prayer Breakfast at the Washington Hilton in February. “I feel even stronger.”

Have you ever read Sowell's book on Intellectuals and Society.

Intellectual is not a title limited to "smart people". It's those who pretend to be smart because others somehow have convinced themselves they are credible.

Go back and read her post. You get one chance.

This kind of deflection is so like you when you are getting ***** slapped in both directions.
When did I call Obama a god?
See above.......

This was her statement:

You shouldn't have used a religious term......only your party said their candidate is god, the messiah, jesus.

Your little montage means nothing.

I would expect it would be easy to find someone in power on the right who has called Trump something superhuman, but you (the almighty smart one :auiqs.jpg: :auiqs.jpg: :auiqs.jpg: ) didn't post it. Instead we get a bunch of TDS pictures.

This is how you work.

All the time.
 
Well, recently I have posted a half dozen threads trying to get Democrat voters to discuss the intenal war in their party, and where they stand if the Far Left/communist element, which has always been about 49% of the party, takes over....if they will continue to vote Democrat.

Bernie, AOC, Mamdani are all over the news, and yet none of them will engage or answer the question.


Or make the argument for socialism.
The best argument for socialism at present is the vast disparity in wealth in the US between the workers and the top 10%. The best argument for capitalism, although I think the present economic system in the US would be labeled mercantilism by Adam Smith, is the fact in spite of that, workers have a wealthy life here compared to all other nations excepting many in the EU. Socialism and capitalism are economic tools, not religions. Those that treat each as a religion demonstrate their intellectual poverty.
 
15th post
Do you have a problem comprehending what you write? You just claimed that wealth buys innocent verdicts. SMH, Please don't be purposely obtuse, it comes to you naturally.
How many criminals cases did Trump face?

And can you please lay out the argument. Well, of course not.

And it would be great if you could tell us how this argument works.
