A Campaign To Silence Conservative Speech

[Newell Steamer]

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/sep/5/jacobson-a-campaign-to-silence-conservative-speech/#!

These prongs include misuse of government powers to target conservatives, attempts to keep conservative voices from being heard on mass-media outlets, and redefinition of language in order to taint conservative speech as unacceptable.

Wait - I thought conservatives did NOT want to be on mass media,.. what with their private dinners addressing the 47%, or strategizing over how to keep the big bad government from forcing ya'll to actually pay your workers a minimum wage? So, which is it,.. you are kept OUT of the media? Or are you holding all sorts of private meeting (they exist, there is even video and audio of them),.. that you don't want the rest of us to hear about?

Also,.. Fox News - aren't THEY mass-media?? Plus, they have been #1,.. for 50 quarters; http://www.mediaite.com/tv/q2-2014-cable-news-ratings-fox-news-hits-50th-straight-quarter-at-1/

With 50 straight quarters of wins in its rearview mirror, Fox News shows no signs of losing its dominant edge.

Wait,.. how can conservative speech be silenced,.. when it is dominating in mass media??

So, no one is trying to silence anyone here,.. and to think so,.. just proves what an alarmist and sensationalist group of people the defective conservatives truly are.

What is next? Accusing liberals that we want to place them in concentration camps and 'eliminate' th,.. oh, wait - that has already happened (the accusations).

You one of the campaigners. With your fucked up CBD 'theory'

 

[sandorski]

lol

 

[Newell Steamer]

You one of the campaigners.

And you are one of the "victims"!

Say, what else do you think is going to happen to you, at the liberal's hands? Or rather, what we will attempt to do to you?

We've covered concentration camps - which is not true. They don't physically exist, nor are there any discussions, anywhere nor will there be, to construct such things.

We've covered 'elimination' (this one was even yours I believe) - which is not true. We don't want to eliminate you - we frankly want you to calm down.

We've covered silencing - which is not true, because conservatives:
1) choose to stay out of mass media (again, your private dinners)
or
2) you already have a rather dominating network AND popular news channel which covers everything and anything conservative.

So,.. again,.. none of what you are crying about is actually happening.

 

[boomerang]

Newell, you need to get out into the sunshine. Step in some dog shit. Elude a mugger. Find some self-medication in a back alley. Your obsession with conservatives is symptomatic of a brain defect. What is it you are crying out about? What are you really trying to tell us you poor tortured soul?

Yawn!!! yanstt

Rage and insults and feigned indifference will be two ways the CBD will respond to news pointing out one of the effects of having one.

They are looking in a mirror and do not like what they see,.. so they lash out.

The ugliness is not the mirror itself, but, the image. And, instead of acknowledging they are wrong, they place the 'fault' onto the mirror itself.

The mirror isn't making alarmists and sensationalist ugly - alarmists and sensationalists make alarmists and sensationalist ugly.

Eventually (over the course of a few centuries), society (a quite organic, versatile and adaptive being) will push these false flag waving defects out. There is no place in society or people who constantly cry wolf.

 

[Londo_Jowo]

Liberals (Far Left)/Far Right tend to have the most rage and use of insults. Though this doesn't appear to be the case among moderates from either side.

I thought you were bored?? And, yet, here you are with a second post,.. 3rd should be incoming as well.

Make up your mind, dudebro. Otherwise, get back to your ham radio, orders should be coming in, any day now.

 

[Londo_Jowo]

What's a matter? Can't handle the truth? You and moonie rage on just about every day and hurl insults with the best of those on the right, maybe more.

 

[Attic]

Don't look here, look over there! Right where my finger's always pointing.

The hate from the left hurled towards the right is confusing. I've never seen more nice folks turn into raving lunatics filled with hate for anything conservative than I have when discussing where the country is at with liberals. Basically it comes down to "It's all conservatives fault, they have to be cast out." The hate is tangible, I don't get this from conservatives as much even though conservatives are a bit more angry in general at things IME.

"Oh look look a squirrel!" mentality of most Americans does fit nicely with this playbook. Always nice distractions for both sides.

But here with OP as well as in congress, the shit that parks in corners of both sides of our political aisle smells the same not because it's different in nature. It's the protection that each side affords that excrement that is the real problem, one that can be fixed. The shit will always look to splat on something especially if the area is not only not fenced off from turdage, but rather it invites the turdage. Shouldn't the folks who can't think be cast out from both sides?, rather than the most obnoxious non thinkers being granted asylum as long as they wear a certain color?

I am perfectly open to the truth,.. you just have to provide it someday. You know, instead of telling me to just go find it.

Well said.

Try to understand that I have to qualify and apply extra scrutiny to what you say 'appears to' you' because the instrument with which you make such analyses seems to be defective to me. I do know, however, that fear produces hate, which is at root for rage, and that the fear center of the conservative brain tends to be enlarged in that area, and the area that keeps emotion out of logical thinking seems to be less developed that in liberals, so, scientifically speaking, a language you probably doubts exists, says otherwise. Extreme liberals, it would seem, ought to be cold as fish.

 

[Newell Steamer]

ahh...a lazy conservative.....

And, here is the kicker - the proof is the link in the actual OP!

The Washington Post edit Times article spells out what the author feels is a campaign against conservative speech.

My counter to that is; nope. Because they have the most popular mouth piece around - Fox News. Furthermore, you can't claim suppression of speech,.. and hold private / secret dinners at the same time. The conservative message is clearly out and no one is silencing it.

People ARE pointing out how it is contradictory and impossible to follow it.

And, it seems to boil down to this frankly; my views are being silenced, because no one (or rather most people) are not following said views. Well, that is not silencing,.. we are just not agreeing with you. Which then leads into the whole realm to painting oneself as the victim/martyr,.. which the right is notorious for as well,..

 

[theeedude]

Conservatism = perennial victim mentality.

Unfortunately, while I can appreciate the fact that more rational conservatives want to shelter from the garbage they have on the right, the argument that there is equal garbage on the left is just a rationalization. There may be garbage but it is nowhere near as dangerous to the average American nor does it have anywhere near the influence. I see only CBD rationalization in your post, sorry, a need to protect the ego from facts that you would find unpleasant to see as such.

One would have to be blind not to see you insulting people on almost a daily basis in here.

 

[Londo_Jowo]

ahh...a lazy conservative.....

So says another liberal that rages on and hurls insults on daily basis in here as well.

Part of having a CBD is that feelings are being repressed. Whenever that happens those feelings get projected on to the other, in this case liberals. The CBD wants nothing more than to silence the factual nature of how their brains rationalize truth rather than see it for factual data, so they have to believe that anything that causes that truth to manifest is some evil out to silence their rationalization need. They deflect because truth feels like an attack on their egos.

However, the notion that we will in time get rid of conservative brains in the future may actually be mistaken, if they are genetically defective, because what is a defect in the world we live in right now can at anytime change. Also, every culture is full of just as many defectives as we have, or a good number anyway, and nobody can spot a foreign defective who would offer our country danger than our home grown kind. It was the cackling of geese that saved Rome and I am surrounded here where I live by disgusting urban liberals who want them exterminated because they poop on their lawns. When liberals start focusing solely not on the natural beauty but on the ugly poopiness of things, say, shat out by conservatives or geese, they exhibit the conservative brain and become what they fear.

We do not know why some people have the CB configuration and why some have liberal brains. It could be genetic and it could be nurture, but in either case it's not anybody's fault. You can't go around punishing people for things when there is no guilt. That's what conservatives do when they refuse to believe that folk aren't personally responsible for things. They don't and won't admit that people are driven by feelings they don't know they have.

Stop being over reactive,... which you are doing right now by claiming these facts are insults,.. but, I bet you don't find any issues when criminal statistics point out which race is responsible for said crimes,..

 

[Moonbeam]

Liberals are less likely to have their thinking colored by feeling, not impervious to it. Try to understand that it takes a lot to be patient and understanding with conservatives whey they have such political success and that success is destroying the nation. Just imagine you might react if some clown you were giving a ride to tried to grab the steering wheel and drive you off a cliff. You are asking for calm while you're killing us here. But rage and anger are meaningless, irrational feelings given the facts, which are that you can't help being what you are and no rage or anger is therefore rationally justified.

There is no escape for the logical liberal. He has only his cross to carry. The more conscious people always have to carry the weight of understanding. For you is the bliss of ignorance.

 

[Newell Steamer]

It could be genetic and it could be nurture, but in either case it's not anybody's fault.

Totally agreed.

I mean, we don't go around punishing people with Downs Syndrome. So, we would never punish anyone else with a defect like sensationalistic and alarmist thinking.

Nonetheless, their views should not dictate the rest of our lives - because that which they fear is NOT happening. It is a perception, that is false, and ergo not applicable.

In a few centuries, as information and facts (as well as logic) continue to reign supreme, people who cry wolf will just fade away.
